Chapter 42: The Contest (2)
Zhang Man's smile stiffened on his lips.
Originally, if he was flattering, he didn't know how to say it, so he just smiled at Jiang Xiaoxiao awkwardly.
Jiang Xiaoxiao ignored her anymore and led Jiang Ruoqing to find another good position.
Fifteen stoves, cooking at the same time, the smell of oil smoke gradually worsened.
When the game was coming to an end, all kinds of dishes were mixed with the little snort of the incoming ginger.
Jiang Xiaoxiao first went to see the young man who was a good knife worker.
He has finished it, he made a spicy stir-fried beef, red peppers and green peppers and beef are in stark contrast, the dish is bright, and on one side of the plate, there is a flower carving.
The decoration of the plating adds a lot of points to this dish, at least it looks very good.
Jiang Ruoqing liked that radish carving, and she whispered carefully: "Sister, that radish is so beautiful, it's really like a flower." ”
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, and before he could look at other people's entries, there was another gong in his ears.
"It's over!"
A middle-aged man in a fancy costume reappeared and raised his voice. Motioned to Xiao Er to serve the dishes made on each stove.
"I... I'm not ready yet....." A man of nearly thirty a year, he only made a promise, his hands and feet were flustered, and the front of the stove was even more messy, and he was not done yet.
The middle-aged man who was presiding over the game raised his hand to interrupt him: "Pull down." ”
Don't give him a chance to say more at all.
If you don't finish it, you will be eliminated directly.
"I... Give me two more minutes.... Give me two more minutes....."
"Give me one more chance...."
More than one person was kicked out, and three out of fifteen people overtimed.
Wang Cuilan looked at the three people who were dragged down and smiled gloatingly.
Fifteen people, five people will be promoted, and without those three people, her chances have greatly increased!
Wang Cuilan is in a good mood with the naked eye, and since she met Zhang Chuzhi yesterday, she looks refreshed.
It's just that when she found Jiang Xiaoxiao in the crowd, her face changed.
She knew that Jiang Xiaoxiao was good-looking, but when did she become so outstanding.
At a glance in the crowd, Jiang Xiaoxiao's face is particularly conspicuous, with white skin, red lips and white teeth, and even the action of fiddling with his hair, which is amazing.
Wang Cuilan frowned, she couldn't figure out when Jiang Xiaoxiao was so good-looking.
Even with the little hatred for Jiang, it was aggravated a little.
Wang Cuilan was preparing chicken stewed mushrooms, and the dishes of several of them had been brought to the long table at this time, waiting for the results.
Qin Shihai, who is on the far right, has a straight waist, and his face shows a bit of calmness.
I don't worry about losing the election at all.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was standing in the back, from her direction, she couldn't see the movement on the side of the judges' seat, she could only vaguely see the five rich and graceful men, after tasting the dishes, talking left and right, as if discussing which five people to stay.
About ten minutes passed.
Lin Xun, who presided over the competition, did not directly announce the results, but asked the first batch of contestants to leave first.
Because there is more than this competition today, today's results will be announced tomorrow.
Jiang Xiaoxiao thought that the results would be announced at the moment, but after watching the first scene, he probably knew the process.
When they came out of the first building, a dark-skinned young man hurriedly walked past her and shouted, "Brother Qin! What do you think! ”
"It's inevitable!"
A brisk voice with a little smile came from behind, and Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes looked at the afterglow of the person who spoke was the young man who had achieved the sword skill just now.
Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyebrows were slightly raised, and a good sentence was inevitable.
It seems that this young man is not only good at swordsmanship, but also has the best cooking skills, otherwise he would not be so frivolous.
After all, he was a strong competitor, Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at him quietly.
Just looking at his companion, Yingying smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "I knew that Brother Qin must be fine, how about the contestants this time?" ”
Qin Shihai shook his head, "I think they are all here to make up the numbers, and some of them can't even cut the vegetables well." ”
Jiang Xiaoxiao pulled the corners of her mouth with a sigh, and then withdrew her gaze.
"Sister!"
"Big brother!"
Jiang Ruoqing saw Jiang Wu, and his small body pounced directly on Jiang Wu.
"Dawu, when did you come over, I thought you went back." Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jiang Ruoqing stayed in Yipinlou for an hour, and she thought that Jiang Wu would go back by herself after selling the cakes.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wu was still waiting for them outside.
Jiang Wu touched his nose: "Sister, it won't be long, is the comparison finished inside?" ”
"The first one is over, and there are still a few more to come, don't watch it, let's go back first."
After watching the first show, it's not early.
Jiang Xiaoxiao bought two sugar gourds from the vendor on the side of the road and went back to Dayu Village.
——————
At this time, the empty house next door to the Jiang family had been taken down by the Fang family.
The farm has been abandoned for several years and looks dilapidated, but because of this, the price is cheap.
At this moment, Fang Qiumin was cleaning up the messy farmyard.
Sister-in-law Xu Huifang stood in the courtyard with a disgusted expression on her face: "How can this live!" Nothing! The roof is still bare! ”
Because Xu Huifang was lost with her husband, she didn't know whether she was dead or alive, she was emotionally depressed all day long, and if she didn't scold a few words a day, her heart was not happy.
Fang Qiumin had long been used to it, and knew that it was because his brother's life and death were unknown.
She sighed secretly: "Sister-in-law, our family's money, it's good to be able to take down this house, pack up, and have a place to stay, it's better than sleeping on the street." ”
Xu Huifang naturally knew the conditions at home, and she muttered a few words in her mouth, but her heart was not happy.
The cry of a child was heard again in the house.
and the father-in-law's shout: "Huifang! The kid is making trouble! ”
She stomped her feet irritably: "It's coming, it's coming!" ”
Fang Qiumin was busy moving and settling down, and he didn't even have time to watch today's game in Yipinlou.
Not to mention Xu Huifang, even Fang Qiumin is very aggrieved.
She sighed secretly, gritted her teeth, and continued to clean up the yard.
Jiang Xiaoxiao returned to his house and handed the remaining sugar gourd to Jiang Xiu, and when he heard movement next door, he realized that there was someone living there.
She guessed in her heart that it was Fang Qiumin, but she wasn't very sure, so she went over in person.
The two wooden doors of the courtyard are open, and standing in the doorway, from this angle, there is an unobstructed view.
"Fang Qiumin?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao shouted at the busy girl who was bent over in the yard, with a tentative tone.
Fang Qiumin raised his eyes and couldn't help laughing at Jiang Xiaoxiao's familiar face.
"Tiny! Come on in! ”
"You really arrived in Dayu Village, my house is next door." I didn't expect Fang Qiumin to do things so quickly, she just said that within a few days, Fang Qiumin had already moved in.
"I really can't have a home in the town, so I want to solve this matter earlier, Xiaoxiao, have you gone to Yipinlou today?"
