Chapter 212: The Imperial Chef's Advice

The heartbeat of the onlookers next to him was tightly tied to the old chef's pace at this time, looking at Lin Jinxiu for a while, and then looking at the position of the old chef.

Some girls were even so nervous that they bit the embroidered handkerchief in their hands and watched Lin Jinxiu's movements with worried faces.

Lin Jinxiu obviously heard the reminder of the person next to her, and her actions were only the last step of loading at this time.

Hurrying slowly, Lin Jinxiu put the plate in his hand in front of him when the old chef stood in front of him.

"Please!"

With Lin Jinxiu's shout, her game was finally over

The surrounding crowd couldn't help cheering, but Lin Jinxiu breathed a long sigh of relief, her eyes were full of determination, and she looked at the old chef in front of her, her arms trembling a little tiredly.

Who knew that the old chef actually turned around and left, which made Lin Jinxiu a little shocked.

The onlookers were also confused, Shopkeeper Lin worked so hard to finish the game, could it be that the old chef left like this?

Who knew that the old chef just changed his position, walked in from the side of the stall, and came to Lin Jinxiu's side.

Lin Jinxiu didn't know what he wanted to do, he just looked at the old man in front of him in a daze, very confused.

"Here, show me the wounded hand." The old man's voice was very gentle, as if Lin Jinxiu was his granddaughter.

"Huh?" Before Lin Jinxiu could react, she reflexively raised her injured arm.

The old man gently grabbed Lin Jinxiu's wrist and slowly untied the sweaty gauze on her arm.

Because Lin Jinxiu had not treated the wound all along, the wound had already stuck to the gauze at this time, and there was faint blood oozing out, which was obviously worn out under the violent movements.

The old man's movements were very light, and he took the gauze off Lin Jinxiu's arm little by little, as if to divert her attention, and asked, "With such a serious injury, what happened to Fang Zheng?" ”

The wound was a little painful, Lin Jinxiu frowned from time to time, and when she heard the old man ask her, she stuck out her tongue and replied: "Just an hour ago, the stove in our store blew up, and it hurt my cook, I was only slightly injured, it doesn't matter." ”

Although Lin Jinxiu said that it was a minor injury, after everyone saw the red and white burns on her arm, and there were some bleeding burns, they were all worried unconsciously.

The Huang shopkeeper of Ying Helou did say that something happened to Lin Jinxiu, but he didn't expect it to be such a serious matter.

The old man looked at the wound on her arm, groped in his arms for a long time, found a small box of white jade, and handed it to Lin Jinxiu.

"This is ......" Lin Jinxiu opened the small jade-colored box, sniffed it gently, and found that it was an ointment.

"Paint it." The old chef saw Ning Er, who was busy in the rear, and shouted, "That little girl, come over here." ”

Ning Er found out that she was pointing at herself, so she jumped up and ran over.

"Help your sister apply the medicine." Although the old chef did not know the relationship between the two of them, it was always right to say that they were sisters.

Ning'er nodded obediently: "Okay." ”

The ointment was very cool, and the moment it was applied to the wound, Lin Jinxiu felt a lot less pain, her eyes widened, and she only felt that it was very magical.

"This is the last time I was burned, the ointment given to me by the emperor was prescribed by the imperial doctor, and it is much better than ordinary scald ointment."

Hearing the old man say this, Lin Jinxiu and Ning Er were almost scared to death.

"Ahh Lin Jinxiu hurriedly shrank her arm when she heard this, "Master, I can't help it!" This is the ointment given to you by the emperor, it must be hard to find, the little woman and you are just meeting in Pingshui......"

And Ning Er's reaction was even more exaggerated, the ointment in her hand almost fell to the ground, and she hurriedly took it several times before grabbing it, and shuddered to cover the box and stuff it into the old chef's hand.

Seeing the reaction of the two of them, the old man chuckled: "It's just a wound medicine, there are still a lot of old decay, who is different to treat diseases and save people?" ”

As he spoke, he put the medicine box back in Lin Jinxiu's hand.

"Don't worry, although the saint is young today, he is definitely a Ming Jun, if he hears that the medicine he gave can save people, he will definitely be very happy."

Under the comfort of the old man, Lin Jinxiu finally stopped refusing, and stretched out his arm in fear, as if it was not medicine but gold applied to his arm.

"Don't get the wound wet, it will be fine after a while, the girl's body with fine skin and tender flesh has to be married, but you have to be careful."

Lin Jinxiu blinked his eyes and looked at the old man in front of him, and said silently in his heart: I didn't expect the chef in this imperial dining room to be very gentle.

The old chef smiled, watched Ning'er re-wrap Lin Jinxiu's wound, and then started his work, only to see him pick up the fish that Lin Jinxiu had placed on the stove in front of him, and he wanted to eat it.

Lin Jinxiu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

This time, the dishes were really hasty, and after being treated so gently by the old chef, presenting the incomplete works to her made Lin Jinxiu feel a little disrespectful.

"The shopkeeper doesn't have to think about it." The old chef is worthy of being a person who has worked beside the emperor, looking at Lin Jinxiu's demeanor, he smiled lightly: "You have worked very hard." ”

"In such a short period of time, he can still make such a dish with an injury, Shopkeeper Lin is really powerful."

The old chef's comfort was heard in Lin Jinxiu's ears, like a warm current, flowing into her heart, diluting her nervousness Lin Wei a little.

Chopsticks set aside the chili pepper as an ingredient, and the old chef put a piece of soft and steamy fish and a thick sauce in his mouth and savored it.

Although he did not speak, he could see a very kind smile on his wrinkled face.

Lin Jinxiu's arms drooped, looking at the old chef, a little nervously waiting for his evaluation.

However, what I didn't expect was that the old chef didn't say too much about it.

He just smiled, and ate nearly half of the fish that Lin Jinxiu handed her.

Lin Jinxiu smiled.

Even though there are many dishes to be tasted, the fact that the old chef has eaten so much of his own food is a supreme evaluation in itself.

"It's great." The old chef handed the plate to Lin Jinxiu, "It's a pity that I still have a lot of dishes to try." ”

And the observant person found that the old chef used his hands, and with his position, such a posture speaks for itself.

A kind of respect, respect from the top level of peers!

Lin Jinxiu also took the small bowl with both hands, and in the process of evaluation, the two obviously didn't say a few words, but everything was in eye contact.

So much so that after the old chef left, Lin Jinxiu's eyes left with his back, and there was no movement for a long time.

"Chef, you can also give an evaluation of the dishes made by the shopkeeper Lin in this splendid world."

The people who came with the old chef were confused, looking in good spirits, like an old chef who had suddenly become several years younger, and had no idea how to remember the points in their hands.

"This woman has great talents." The old chef didn't look back, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "But she can't be my apprentice." ”

As soon as the people around him heard this, they made a look of understanding, and wrote a few strokes hastily under their hands: "It seems that the chef does not approve of Shopkeeper Lin?" ”

"Not really." Who knows, but the old chef denied the summary made by the people around him, "If I have the opportunity to meet her in the future, I will introduce her to another master." ”

This evaluation...... The people around him looked at each other, whether it was high or low, and gave an accurate head?

"Her plate of fish is truly astonishing." The old chef continued, "However, it can only be considered a semi-finished product. ”

The expressions of the people around him became even more confused.

"The salt doesn't taste good, but I just looked, and there is no salt in her jar, so I guess it's not a mistake."

"The preparation was too hasty, the garlic was just scattered and not cut, the peppers were cut into different sizes, the soup was just poured into the plate, there were hurried shadows everywhere, and the appearance was not very good."

"However, her fish is very clean in this case, which shows that in the processing of ingredients, she chose the most important part in the limited time, which is good."

"All in all, this fish is only a half-finished product, not a complete work."

"However, it is because of the problem in the stall that she has caused such a result, and the score will be increased as appropriate." The old chef commanded.

"Yes." The scorer agreed.

At this, the old chef fell silent, and glanced back at the splendid signboard in the crowd of people coming and going.

"I'm looking forward to the opportunity to see your full strength."

As for the scoring, Lin Jinxiu was completely unaware of it now, but she was still immersed in the eye contact with the old man.

I don't know if it's because he is a chef or for whatever reason, from the old man's eyes, Lin Jinxiu can see a sympathetic appreciation.

Looking at him for a short time, Lin Jinxiu seemed to have penetrated the whole life in an instant.

"Is this the skill of the chef of the Imperial Dining Room?" Lin Jinxiu thought silently, "It would be nice if I could still see that old chef." ”

Fang Cai had been immersed in shock, and he hadn't had time to thank him for his ointment, which made Lin Jinxiu always feel a little regretful.

"He's gone?" After a while, Huai Yanqing came out of the crowd and asked Lin Jinxiu quietly, looking like a thief.

Lin Jinxiu looked at Huai Yanqing's funny appearance and said happily: "Yes, let's go." How, do you know him? ”

"I'll tell you when I get back." Huai Yanqing turned around again to make sure that the old man had indeed left, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, returned to his position, and began to work.

"Okay." Lin Jinxiu responded, lowered her head again and began to fry rice for the guests in front of her.

The busyness continued until dusk, and Lin Jinxiu finally heard the sound of the yamen's drums, which was the sound announcing the end of the food festival.

After a tiring day, Lin Jinxiu finally relaxed completely, handed over the last customer's order, and then found a small bench to sit down from the side.

"Shopkeeper, are you okay?" Huai Yanqing had just come back from Cui Xu at this time, and when she saw that Lin Jinxiu was paralyzed, she patted her shoulder.

"It's fine." Lin Jinxiu's voice was a little weak, "How is Cui Xu's injury?" ”

Huai Yanqing sighed slightly: "Let's say it's serious, it's all skin trauma, let's say it's not serious, it's really serious, and you need to rest for a while." ”
