Chapter 234: Simple

It is a fact that Zhou Youdao has a poor character.

I don't know how many people have offended over the years, just in Yangzhen, when he was proud, he brought disaster to many people.

When he gains power, no one dares to provoke him, and when he loses power, of course, the wall falls down and everyone pushes him, and everyone is scrambling to step on a few feet.

So the rumors became more and more similar, Liu Chong was the protagonist of the story, and Zhou Youdao became the opposite of the foil.

Zhou Youdao was about to collapse, he also believed these words, and felt that his master Zhou You did not regard him as the heir of the mantle, but valued Liu Chong more!

Until he left the town in despair, these thoughts did not change.

"The Zhou family's recipe is not a secret book, the one in Zhou Youdao's hand is the accumulation of Zhou Youdao's life."

"Zhou Jiacai doesn't have any secret recipes that Zhou Youdao doesn't know."

"Zhou You has never visited a famous teacher in his life, and his cooking skills are all on his own, and he rarely uses expensive ingredients in cooking. Teaching disciples to cook, it is impossible to keep a hand. ”

Yang Yuying pondered for a moment, smiled slightly, seemed to be a little warm, but also a little sentimental, and thought carefully for a long time before finding the language to explain this strange little problem in the eyes of others - why didn't the Queen Mother leave Zhou Youdao, but left Liu Chong, who had a lot of poor craftsmanship?

"Wang ...... The Queen Mother has a habit, I'm afraid that even Her Majesty doesn't know, she doesn't like to waste food, it's the kind of thing that she doesn't like if she doesn't feel comfortable with a little waste. ”

"When the Queen Mother was still the crown princess, she ordered the kitchen to prepare only three dishes and one soup for her every meal every day, and she must not waste it."

"When she becomes the queen mother, she becomes more and more majestic, every time she speaks, there must be countless people who have to ponder her meaning countless times, but she rarely makes requests in idle matters, and she does not show her thoughts more and more."

"For many years, she ate whatever the imperial dining room did. The imperial dining room flattered her, and she also suffered, anyway, no matter how much she cooked, as long as she didn't touch it, it would be a new good dish, and she would distribute them to the palace maids and eunuchs close to her one by one before the meal. ”

"But in the end, it's still not happy, but Zhou You's cooking is the most to her liking, which is delicious and just right, so that she can just eat and eat comfortably, and she doesn't waste anything."

"The treasure stew praised by the Queen Mother, don't look at the name is spreading, everyone is curious, in fact, when you traveled around to make this dish, there was no way."

"At that time, the Queen Mother was not the crown princess, but she was still the young lady of the Jiangmen Wang family, but she was already very valued by the first emperor, and she often accompanied her father and brother."

"One day, the first emperor Weifu paid a private visit, and he was hungry before dinner, so he went to the restaurant to eat, and the accompanying imperial chef picked and made a table of dishes, but the remaining scraps were not taken by the cooks to make ordinary dishes for themselves, but the scraps that were to be thrown away, and there were several large pots."

"At that time, Zhou You was working as a cook in that restaurant, and he was really distressed, racking his brains to come up with a new dish, using those scraps, and named it, called Baizhen Stew, which was rich in flavor and unique flavor, and was very popular with the guests."

"The Queen Mother was eating awkwardly at that time, and when she thought of the wasted things, she felt that something was missing, and it was strange and uncomfortable, and she saw a hundred treasures when she left the guest room."

"The Queen Mother is such a smart person, deaf and clear-sighted, and her eyes are also poisonous, she can see the mind of traveling around at a glance, a dish of no more or less, just the right hundred treasures stewed after eating, the Queen Mother is in a good mood, and since then she has fallen in love with the dishes made by Zhou You, and a love has not changed for many years."

Yang Yuying laughed, "Liu Chong cooks generally, but he has good eyesight, is careful, and he also doesn't like to waste, I pointed him out a few words, he naturally easily touched the pulse of the Queen Mother, and nothing else can be done, it is absolutely no problem to serve the Queen Mother to eat." ”

Wang Jinhua and the others were dumbfounded when they heard it.

How many cooks studied this case and guessed why Liu Chong was promoted.

Because of this, Wang Jinhua's 100 restaurants are full every day, and the business of one day is better than the previous half a month, which is still not a big restaurant, and the hospitality ability is not strong, otherwise the business is better.

"I don't know what kind of expression those who evaluate Xiao Liu's dishes know this answer!"

Liu Chong's taste of cooking is obviously not very distinctive, it can only be regarded as the level of a normal cook, Wang Jinhua has eaten the dishes he has eaten for many years, and she has not seen anything special, but these days listening to the praise of those former diners and honorable people, she has been worried for several days as if there was something wrong with her tongue.

Yang Yuying chuckled: "Zhou Youdao has a true inheritance, talent is good, in terms of cooking skills are much better than Liu Chong, the ingredients he uses to cook are better, and the dishes he makes cannot be more unpalatable than Liu Chong's dishes, the Queen Mother is not disliked, it's just that the Queen Mother doesn't have a lot of appetite, she has too many things to be busy, to think, most of the time, as long as the entrance to any meal can be full." ”

"Zhou Youdao's dishes, it doesn't hurt to eat one meal once in a while, and Liu Chong's daily meals are more in line with her wishes."

Wang Jinhua was dumbfounded: Is that so?

At this point, she believes more and more that her daughter's divination skills are powerful, she has actually believed in these since she was a child, and now she has a daughter with this example, which is more believed in seven points.

If it weren't for the fortune telling, how would her daughter know the queen mother's thoughts?

said that when Yang Yuying was talking to Wang Jinhua, Wang Shizi of Ping had dinner with a few friends on the second floor of Baijiacai.

Since the arrival of the saint, the prince of Ping Wang has rarely had a moment of leisure time, and the other sons are also forbidden to haunt any interesting places to play, obediently studying at home, and the family is afraid that they will get into trouble.

Today, the prince of King Ping has an invitation, and the family releases him.

A group of people played for a long time, and when they arrived at the meal, they came to the Baijia Restaurant, and they were eating, and they didn't think about it, and they listened to the secrets of the Queen Mother, and they were a little excited, squeezing their eyebrows at each other, and making all kinds of strange appearances.

The prince of Ping Wang was stunned and absent-minded for a long time.

Until he left from the Baijia Restaurant, he was still strange in his heart, what Liu Niangzi said about the Queen Mother, although the matter is small, but this can really be known by relying on divination?

Who will have nothing to do with this?

The Queen Mother's habits, even His Majesty doesn't know, why is Liu Xiaoniang so clear like a few family treasures?

But said that the prince of Ping Wang was puzzled and very confused, this night in the canteen, he went out a little late, rushed to Qingliangju, and saw the queen mother's personal guard Yuan Huwei standing with his back against the wall.

The Queen Mother sat on the table in the far corner and ate a stack of fried tofu with meat sauce, as well as a plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables and a plate of steamed sea bass.

Her old man ate every bite of the dish cleanly, wiped the corners of her lips, looked satisfied, looked up, sat opposite her, and looked at the little girl Liu Su, who was sitting opposite her, and looked at her with her cheeks up: "Hey, every time my cooks make steamed sea bass, they have to add salt to me, it seems that they can't eat without adding salt, and they can't eat without heavy ingredients, and tell them that they only put vinegar and sugar, and they don't understand." ”

"How many years have I been, and only today in your place, in the little chef you trained, I have tasted the taste of my youth, the dishes made by the little chef do not add ginger slices, and the porridge made by you adds half a spoonful of sugar, this is what you taught? These habits of mine, as well as my tastes, are known only to my aunt, so you want to tell me, do you know my aunt? ”

The prince of Ping Wang was choked when he boarded, and he desperately clasped his throat before spitting out the dishes, which really showed some ugliness.
