And in the inner room of the restaurant-

Baili Yun Zhengwu picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and put it back, he was still angry that Xiao Ning and the owner of the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant took advantage of Li Chuxia's kindness.

"I think I'll drive that Xiao Ning away tomorrow, and I always feel uneasy when I let her go." Baili Yunzheng heard Xiao Ning's performance today from Avena, and he was even more unhappy when he learned that the other party was still so arrogant.

Li Chuxia took Baili Yunzheng's hand and sighed lightly, "Okay, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you're angry." ”

Baili Yunzheng pulled the person to his side, and gently stroked Li Chuxia's unbulging abdomen with his palm, "I'm angry for you, you, it's just too easy to soften." ”

Only soft-heartedness led people into the restaurant, and soft-hearted people connived at each other's nonsense again and again.

Thinking that Xiao Ning bumped into Baili Yunzheng, Li Chuxia's eyes gradually became cold, she could condone Xiao Ning to mess around, and she didn't even care about learning to cook, but the other party should never have a conflict with Baili Yunzheng.

Li Chuxia, who originally planned to send Xiao Ning out in a few days, suddenly had a new idea.

"It's the Begging Festival in a few days, and I guess the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant will not let go of this good day."

Baili Yunzheng couldn't see the expression on Li Chuxia's face, but he clearly felt the calculation and pride in this sentence.

"Are you trying to ......?"

Li Chuxia snorted, "Don't they want to learn the dishes in the restaurant, then I'll serve them with both hands." ”

On the second day, Li Chuxia came to the restaurant early, and saw that it was about to open, but Xiao Ning hadn't come yet.

Ah Wei followed Li Chuxia's side, he had long been dissatisfied with Xiao Ning, and finally caught the other party's mistake again, so he had to mumble a few more words in Li Chuxia's ear.

And Li Chuxia just waved his hand to stop Ah Wei's words, and didn't say much.

Xiao Ning stepped into the restaurant a quarter of an hour before opening the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Chuxia who was sitting.

"Sister Xia, why are you here today?" Xiao Ning hurriedly posted it and raised a smile.

Li Chuxia moved away without a trace, but with a gentle smile on his face, "The Qiqiao Festival is coming, and all restaurants in Jiangbei have to take out their own good dishes to compete on this day, don't I come to think about the recipe." ”

Hearing Li Chuxia's words, Xiao Ning's eyes lit up in an instant, "Then can I come and help?" ”

"Of course, I can teach you if you want to." Li Chuxia put the written recipe in front of Xiao Ning and motioned for her to take it.

Xiao Ning glanced at it and smiled brighter.

"Thank you, Sister Xia, I will definitely learn by heart."

Xiao Ning's mind was on the recipe all day, and he didn't care about doing things, Ah Wei couldn't look past and wanted to teach this little girl a lesson, but was stopped by Li Chuxia.

Before the sky was completely dark, Xiao Ning arrived at the place agreed with Samoro.

"How's it going?" Samoro's face was gloomy, he no longer expected Xiao Ning to bring him good news.

Xiao Ning took out the recipe and shook it in front of Samoro's eyes, "This is the dish they are going to make for the begging festival." ”

The above dish Samoro has never seen before, but just by looking at the ingredients, you know how delicious the finished product is, and with this recipe, you are afraid that you will not be able to steal business?

Samolo pinched the recipe, led the person to the back kitchen of the restaurant, and took out a few silver tickets and handed them to Xiao Ning.

Xiao Ning was full of what his future scenery would look like, and he didn't know that his whereabouts had been mastered by Baili Yunzheng.

When he received the tip, Baili Yunzheng was still persuading Li Chuxia to drink fetal pills, and the two people who heard the news were not in a good mood.

Li Chuxia took the black medicinal juice and drank it all, venting all the unhappiness in his heart, Baili Yunzheng hurriedly fed the candied fruit to Li Chuxia's mouth, so as to suppress the bitter taste.

"Hmph, that Xiao Ning really thinks he is a chef, but he got a recipe, and whether he can do it or not is another matter." Baili Yunzheng was upset for Li Chuxia, of course he knew that cooking was not achieved overnight, but he simply couldn't see Xiao Ning being proud.

Hearing this, Li Chuxia patted Baili Yunzheng's hand funny, "This is natural, but we can't slack off." ”

Baili Yunzheng looked in the direction of Li Chuxia, even if he couldn't see it, he could imagine the sly expression on the other party's face.

"Then what are you going to cook for the Beggar's Day?"

Li Chuxia pondered for a moment and said, "Since the shopkeeper of the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant wants to learn the cuisine of Jiangbei, then I might as well use the Northern Xinjiang cuisine to pay tribute to him." ”

Northern Xinjiang cuisine is not in line with the taste of Jiangbei people, otherwise the shopkeeper would not have made this decision to come to steal the teacher, but not all Northern Xinjiang dishes are spicy and difficult to swallow, at least in Li Chuxia's memory, there is a famous Northern Xinjiang dish suitable for Jiangbei people.

Baili Yunzheng was a little worried, although making northern Xinjiang cuisine can slap the shopkeeper in the face, but salty, spicy and heavy dishes are not suitable for Jiangbei people with light tastes.

However, Baili Yunzheng didn't ask much, he believed that since Li Chuxia said so, he must have his own plans.

In the next few days, Li Chuxia tried the famous dish of Northern Xinjiang in the kitchen, Baili Yunzheng felt sorry for her, and vowed not to let Xiao Ning talk bad before taking Li Chuxia out.

In the past, it was Li Chuxia who was clamoring to go out for a walk, but now it is reversed, but Baili Yunzheng pulled Li Chuxia to the street.

The Qiqiao Festival is one of the grandest festivals in Jiangbei City, and there is already a bit of excitement on the street. On the day of the begging festival, the girls and boys have to go out, or to find a good marriage story, or to visit the temple fair with friends, of course, the most interesting is the begging feast held in the major restaurants that day.

If you can win on this day, it will be the honor of the restaurant for a year.

The days are getting closer and closer to the Qiqiao Festival, and Xiao Ning ponders those few dishes in the Northern Xinjiang restaurant every night, and now he can make a look.

The day before the Qiqiao Festival, Li Chuxia was thinking about Xiao Ning, so he went to the restaurant for a turn, and happened to meet Xiao Ning who came out of the back kitchen.

"Xiao Ning, have you learned those dishes these days?" Li Chuxia smiled and motioned for Xiao Ning to come aside and say a few words to her.

Xiao Ning was disdainful in his heart, and he was not necessarily respectful on his face, so he replied casually, "It's just a few side dishes, so naturally I learned it." ”

Li Chuxia looked at her unruly appearance in her eyes, and thought to herself how she thought she was well-behaved in the first place?

However, Li Chuxia did not reveal a trace of impatience, but continued to say gently, "In that case, you will come to assist me tomorrow." ”

Xiao Ning quietly rolled his eyes, but what he was thinking about was to make a name for himself as the chef of the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant tomorrow.

"Sister Xia, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I was about to tell you that I want to resign." Xiao Ning seemed to hold Li Chuxia's arm intimately and shook it gently.

Li Chuxia pretended to be surprised and looked at Xiao Ning, there was still a little regret and reluctance in his eyes, but he didn't delve into it, "Okay, since you want to leave, there must be something important, just pack up your things and leave in a while." ”

Xiao Ning happily agreed, but when he left the restaurant, he turned a few corners and went to the Northern Xinjiang restaurant.

Li Chuxia told Baili Yunzheng about Xiao Ning's resignation and going to the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant, and Baili Yunzheng made another note to Xiao Ning.

The night passed quickly, and the second day of the restaurant competition began as promised.

Soon, someone recognized that the chef of the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant was Xiao Ning, who appeared in the Yinxia Restaurant a few days ago, and the people gathered outside discussed it in a whisper.

"I saw this little girl in Yinxia Restaurant a few days ago, how did she become the head chef of the Northern Xinjiang Restaurant today?" A middle-aged man who looked honest and honest asked the question in everyone's hearts.

"Hey, why else, I'm afraid I'm going to steal a teacher to learn art."

"The food in Yinxia Restaurant is really good, since this is the case, I'm afraid this little girl's skills are also amazing."

Hearing this, some people were not happy, and said mockingly, "No matter how good the craftsmanship is, what if you learn the craft and forget the master, isn't this a joke for the ancestors!" ”

This person's voice was deliberately loud, which made Xiao Ning, who was about to be in the limelight, angry, and stared at Li Chuxia and Baili Yunzheng opposite with a pair of eyes.

Angry that she didn't notice that Li Chuxia and the others didn't show surprised expressions when they saw her in the Beijiang restaurant.

"Whether the food I cook is delicious or not doesn't need to be evaluated by the ancestors, I'm going to decide this honor later!"

Li Chuxia didn't take this provocation seriously, as far as she was concerned, even if she had her own guidance, the other party was just at the level of learning to cook, so she won this battle.

But the people didn't know the way, seeing that Xiao Ning was so arrogant and Li Chuxia refused to answer, they only said that Li Chuxia was afraid, and the sound of coaxing and discussion came out together, and the atmosphere of the scene was pushed to the top.

Baili Yunzheng was a little angry, and wanted to argue a few words, but Li Chuxia grabbed her wrist, "There is no need to explain, I will use my strength to slap her in the face." ”

After saying this, Li Chuxia began to bury his head in cooking, Samoro glanced at it, and sneered mercilessly when he saw that it was a northern Xinjiang dish.

He only thought that Li Chuxia was already desperate.

When the time was finalized, Li Chuxia's famous dishes in northern Xinjiang were put on small plates and distributed to the surrounding people, the dish was fragrant at first, and it was no worse than smelling in the mouth, and the people who were not optimistic about Li Chuxia were full of praise for this dish.

Although the dishes made by Xiao Ning are good-looking, there is nothing special about them after a careful taste, and the people are reluctant to eat them after tasting them.

Seeing this, Samoro only felt disgraced, and looked at Xiao Ning viciously, "Didn't you say that you would be guaranteed to succeed?" ”

Xiao Ning also yelled back, and the two of them quarreled with each other.

After tossing all morning, Li Chuxia and Baili Yunzheng didn't look at the opponents who were still fighting in the house, and went back to their restaurant together.

"Tired all morning, hungry, right?" Li Chuxia smiled and took out a few dishes from the basket he brought back, including Fang Cai's famous dish in northern Xinjiang, which was praised.

Baili Yunzheng sandwiched a pair of chopsticks, and the taste was the same as in his memory, but there were very few people who could make this dish, where did Li Chuxia learn it?

"In early summer, where did you learn this dish?" Baili Yunzheng asked curiously.

Li Chuxia revealed what happened when he was a child, and picked out three or two sentences that he could say to talk about it.

Baili Yunzheng heard the ambiguity in Li Chuxia's words, but he didn't ask much, but he was a little suspicious of Li Chuxia's life experience in his heart.

The two chatted, and Baili Yunzheng blinked inadvertently, and found that a vague shadow appeared in front of him.
