Soon, when the time came to compete, Shen Yue went to the competition venue early, the venue was already very perfect, there was a row of seats on it, and there was a long table in front of it, which seemed to be where the judges were sitting.

After a while, several other judges also arrived, and several people greeted each other.

"I heard that one of the contestants this time is your apprentice?" Miss Zhang asked.

Shen Yue nodded: "Yes, I only found out a few days ago, and you have also seen it, it is the second place in the Liucheng competition last time, Tu Zhi." ”

"Oh, Tu Zhi, I remember, that guy is also very good, I didn't expect him to become your apprentice, this young man can bend and stretch, it's very good." Chen Lao Dao.

"Today is just the right time to see how far Tu Gongzi has progressed." Mr. Liu said with a gentle smile.

Imperial Chef Li also laughed: "It turned out to be the princess's apprentice, so you have to taste it well." ”

"In fact, he himself is a person who can endure hardships and has a solid foundation in his hands, I just picked up a bargain." Shen Yue said.

After a conversation, the host of this contest came, this time the host is the wife of a very famous senior in the food industry, originally wanted to invite this senior, but the senior has something to do recently, so he called his wife over, although his wife is not as famous as his predecessor, but is also an authority in the food industry, it is said that their family is very famous in this industry.

Shen Yue didn't know much about this host beforehand, and it wasn't until he saw her that he felt a little familiar.

The woman greeted them all, and then gave Shen Yue a salute, and then said: "I am Hu Baojuan, who was invited to be the host this time, princess, I have always admired your name, and I want to thank you for taking care of my son when I see you this time." ”

Shen Yue finally knew where that familiar feeling came from, it turned out that this Hu Baoyu was Tu Zhi's mother.

"Where, it was your son who helped me a lot." Shen Yue said busily.

After the greetings, they got the list of rules of the game again, which was still similar to the format of the game that Shen Yue had participated in, and only fifty people advanced today, but the interval was a little longer, becoming three days, so that they had enough time to prepare.

After a while, the contestants were all there, and Shen Yue didn't feel it as one of them at first, but now standing on a high place and looking at it, a large area of dense is like sardines crowded together.

Shen Yue covered his mouth and smiled secretly, Tu Zhi and Tu Mu stood in the crowd, Tu Mu was released yesterday, and it was found out that it was a misunderstanding, but the whole person also lost a lot of weight in prison, without the previous arrogance, he didn't dare to stare at Shen Yue anymore, so he set his eyes on Tu Zhi, he secretly swore in his heart that he must defeat this person and wash away the shame of the previous few days.

Hu Baojuan stood up, her face had a look of majesty, Tu Zhi's eyes widened, obviously she didn't know that her mother was the host this time, and Tu Mu's eyes were even more ruthless, the judge was Tu Zhi's master, and the host was Tu Zhi's mother, so what chance did he have.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today, the Beijing Food Competition is about to officially begin, I hope you will show your true skills, and I wish you all the best to win the championship." Hu Baojuan's voice spread far away.

The applause rang out, and the opening speech ended, followed by the speeches of the judges, the first few people had finished speaking, and the last one was Shen Yue, she stood up: "In fact, I am the least qualified among the judges, a few years ago I was a contestant in the Liucheng Food Competition, but now I am sitting on the judges' seat, I will work hard with everyone to make progress together, and I will also give my most pertinent evaluation." ”

After speaking, Tu Zhi took the lead, and there was thunderous applause, many participants have heard Shen Yue's name, as well as the Xinyue Pavilion she founded single-handedly, as well as the various cooking methods of beast meat, and now Shen Yue is also an idol in the hearts of many people, but she doesn't know it herself.

The game soon began, the first game was to let them make a lamb, the ingredients were provided by this side, they chose to receive them themselves, and receiving the ingredients was also a test of their skills, after all, if they didn't choose well, the mutton would have a great smell.

At this point, Tu Zhi is still very confident.

When choosing ingredients, Tu Mu passed by Tu Zhi and bumped into Tu Zhi without hesitation, almost knocking Tu Zhi down.

When Shen Yue saw this scene, his brows furrowed slightly, this Tu Mu's character was really unpleasant.

"Don't look at them like this, in fact, when I was a child, Tu Mu's favorite was Tu Zhi, but when he grew up, Tu Zhi became better and better, and he was taught by the second brother as a positive teaching material, so that he could learn more with Tu Mu, and over time, this child had a rebellious psychology in his heart, I and Tu Zhi's father liked him a lot, he was a good seedling for cooking, but his temperament was too weird, and it would be ruined if it went on like this." Hu Baojuan sat beside Shen Yue and said with a sigh.

Shen Yue suddenly realized that it was someone else's child who caused the trouble, but everyone should not like their parents to compare themselves with others, and that person is better than himself in everything.

On the field, the players have basically selected the ingredients, and the smell of fresh mutton suddenly spreads in the field.

Shen Yue saw that many people in the field had started cooking, and Tu Zhi was no exception.

Some choose stir-fry, some choose braised meat, and some make mutton soup, all of which are dishes that have been passed down from Xinyue Pavilion.

Shen Yue saw that Tu Zhi was holding a lamb chop in front of him, and he was spreading the marinade on it.

The time of the game is two hours, and in one hour, there are already people who have made it one after another, some of them have made braised mutton, and some have made light mutton soup.

Shen Yue ate a lot of servings, but he didn't taste the taste of mutton, and it seems that everyone has handled this aspect very well.

This time the choice is a scoring system, each judge has ten points, five people put together a hundred points, the top 50 with the highest score will be promoted, if there are comparable scores, Hu Baojuan will make the final authoritative decision.

Shen Yue ate a lot of servings, and although they all tasted good, they were still not particularly good in the end.

When there were still a few last people in the field, Tu Zhi's dish was also ready, and there were lamb chops in front of Shen Yue, with a sauce-colored sauce on them, and there was a smell of barbecue on his face, Xia Lan used a silver knife to slow everything, and the meat fell off the bones, it seemed to be the result of stewing for a long time, would the roasting have such an effect?

Shen Yue cut a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, and the taste instantly exploded in his mouth.

The sauce is rich and salty, the mutton is crispy, and the skin is still crispy, which is very delicious to match, and before he knew it, Shen Yue finished eating the lamb chops in his bowl.

The other four judges were amazed in their eyes, and finally gave a high score of nine points, while Shen Yue thought about it and gave eight points, even so, Tu Zhi was still the highest score on the field.

And Tu Mu also followed behind Tu Zhi and brought the dish over, he made mutton soup, and there were a few green chives floating on the milky white soup noodles, which was very appetizing at a glance, and the mutton in the bowl was also stewed soft, and pepper was added, and after drinking a bowl, a layer of sweat appeared on his body.

Tu Mu finally advanced to the third place on the field, he was not satisfied with this result, and his eyes were very terrifying when he looked at Tu Zhi.

Fifty people were selected, and it was already past noon, but after tasting so many dishes, Shen Yue didn't feel hungry.

After it was over, Tu Zhi walked directly onto the stage, looked at Hu Baojuan and said, "Mother, why are you here?" ”

Hu Baojuan raised her eyebrows: "Didn't I tell you that I would also come to the capital?" You only care about talking to your fiancée now, how can you still remember what your mother said. Hu Baojuan's tone was a little sour, but there was a smile on her face, and she knew it was a joke at a glance.

Tu Zhi helplessly held his forehead: "Don't make trouble, mother, when did you say it, I can't remember what you said." ”

Hu Baojuan showed a smile: "Okay, tease you, you are so young and serious, be careful that my daughter-in-law doesn't want you, by the way, my daughter-in-law, take me to see, I also brought a meeting gift." ”

Off the field, Lingxiu was looking at them timidly, and Hu Baojuan immediately smiled: "You are Lingxiu, I am Tu Zhi's mother, I must know me too, don't be afraid, I won't eat people, you come and talk." ”

Lingxiu glanced at Shen Yue and saw Shen Yue nodding at her, before she walked to Hu Baojuan's side and stood still.

"What a beauty, it seems that my stinky boy has a good eye, come, this is for you." Hu Baojuan took out a box from her bosom that looked like it was worth a lot.

Lingxiu waved her hand: "Auntie, I can't accept it, this is too precious." ”

Hu Baojuan stuffed the things directly into her hands: "I said that I can accept it, if you don't accept it, don't you look down on me as a mother?" ”

Lingxiu's face turned red all of a sudden, and her speech became stumbling: "No, how can I not look down on you, you don't look down on me." ”

Hu Baojuan held Lingxiu's hand and patted it: "Good boy, live a good life with Tu Zhi in the future, he is a short-tempered person, if he bullies you, come and tell me, I will scold him for you." ”

Lingxiu's eyes were soaked with tears, and she nodded: "Okay." ”

Shen Yue, as Lingxiu's family, and Hu Baojuan are also in-laws, and after the competition, their group and the other four judges went to Xinyue Pavilion, and Shen Yue set aside a box.

"I've heard of the name of Xinyue Pavilion for a long time, and today I want to have a good taste of the princess's craftsmanship." Hu Baojuan said with a smile.

"Where, it's just some home-cooked dishes." Shen Yue said.

Shen Yue let people serve the latest dishes, including seafood and beast meat, and the fragrance was suddenly permeated in the box.

Hu Baojuan tasted it and couldn't help nodding: "The craftsmanship taught by the princess is like this, not to mention the craftsmanship of the princess, it is really worthy of being in the Xinyue Pavilion that is popular all over the country." ”

"Aunt Hu has won the prize." Shen Yue said.

"I heard that Lingxiu was bought by the princess from the hands of the peddler, then Lingxiu is the princess's person, and I know what the princess is worried about, but I can assure you that if I am in one day, Tu Zhi, including everyone in the Tu family, will not trouble Lingxiu, and I like this child very much, so you can rest assured that she will be handed over to us." Hu Baojuan didn't go around the bend either, and said directly.

Shen Yue did have such concerns, because Tu Mu's personality was too distorted, and it was inevitable that he would not send this anger out on Lingxiu's body.

"Since Aunt Hu said so, then I am relieved, but the person who is married to Lingxiu in my family can only have one wife in this body, and there can be nothing on the side, I don't know if Tu Zhi can do it?" Shen Yue smiled and mentioned a condition that is relatively mean in this world.

"This is no problem, Tu Zhi's father and I have been together for the rest of our lives, and there are no messy women next to us to enter the door, and the same is true of my second brother's family, and so is Tu Zhi's grandfather. Tu Zhi will not, if there is such a situation, I will break his leg without the princess saying it, our Tu family does not have such rules. ”
