Chapter 59: Driven Away by Death
Elder Fang spoke, and the rest of the people immediately came over and put the dishes made by Qi Erfeng in front of him.
Elder Fang carefully observed the dish, couldn't help but stroke his beard, nodded and praised, "Wonderful! Wonderful! This dish is actually called 'on the water side', such an apt name, I'm afraid that only a delicate person can think of it, right? ”
Qi Erfeng smiled slightly, noncommittal. She knows that whether a dish can win the appreciation of the judges is not enough just a fitting name, the most important thing is the taste of the dish.
Li Daniu on the side was immediately unconvinced: "This name is not very good!" ”
He didn't say it loudly, and it wasn't heard by Elder Fang, but Qi Erfeng, who was standing beside him, heard it sincerely. For his obvious jealousy behavior, Qi Erfeng didn't take it to heart at all.
It's so quick to talk that it doesn't mean anything at all. won him in cooking, so that Li Daniu could be convinced.
Elder Fang turned to the two people sitting in the middle of the judges' bench and said, "Two adults, what ...... Let's get started, shall we? ”
The county magistrate nodded, as soon as Qi Erfeng's dish came out, the county magistrate's eyes were always on this dish, especially when he saw the smoke curling in the white porcelain plate, he was even more curious about the taste of this dish.
"Come on, divide this dish." The prefectural magistrate spoke.
There were four judges, and soon, a small dish was placed in front of the four people, which was a small portion taken from the three dishes of Qi Erfeng, Li Daniu, and Pei Fangcai.
The four judges coincidentally tasted Qi Erfeng's share first.
"Hmm! Delicious! Hu Qixiang was the first to praise.
Qi Erfeng smiled slightly and threw a grateful glance at Hu Qixiang. Although he doesn't know how many ingredients he has in this sentence, Qi Erfeng knows that he maintains most of his own ingredients.
Xiao Hongluo in the crowd looked a little complicated, on the one hand, he hoped that Qi Erfeng's cooking skills could be recognized by everyone, but when he really heard Hu Qixiang praise Qi Erfeng so directly, his heart was very uncomfortable.
Xiao Hongluo didn't know how to explain his mood, jealousy? Exasperation? Or helpless?
He couldn't tell the difference himself.
The county magistrate tasted it, and involuntarily nodded his head and praised: "Mmmm, delicious, what is this?" The taste is smooth and refreshing, and it is very novel! ”
The master on the side also nodded and said, "This taste is very unique, I have never eaten such a delicious cold dish." ”
Qi Erfeng's dishes have been affirmed by the three judges, if Elder Fang also thinks that her dishes are delicious, then even if Qi Erfeng does not win the first game, he will have a draw with Li Da Niu and Pei Fangcai.
Realizing this, Li Daniu immediately couldn't calm down. He pinned his hopes on Elder Fang's body and immediately asked, "Elder Fang, your old man has eaten so many delicious delicacies, you won't be confused by her insect carving skills, right?" ”
As soon as Li Daniu's words came out, the faces of the three judges immediately darkened. Isn't this saying that the three of them have never seen the world? Elder Fang has eaten so many delicacies, he won't be confused by Qi Erfeng's dishes, so the people who thought Qi Erfeng's dishes were delicious just now were all dirt buns who had never seen the world?
After all, the county magistrate has a noble status, and although he is unhappy, he still suppresses his anger. But the master on the side can't just swallow his anger, what he is best at is observing words and feelings, how can he not understand the reaction of the county magistrate to the sentence just now? Since the county magistrate is hindered by his bad identity, he, the master, naturally wants to give him an official authority.
Therefore, the master immediately scolded Li Daniu with a black face: "What do you say? In the end, you are the judge or we are the judges. Since you're questioning our standards, there's no need for us to stay on the judges' bench. ”
Li Daniu immediately panicked: "Master, I didn't mean that, I ...... I ......"
Li Daniu didn't know what to say for a while.
"Good!" Suddenly, Elder Fang on the side let out a cheer, attracting everyone's attention.
I saw Elder Fang squinting his eyes, looking like he was enjoying it very much, and his mouth was still slowly tasting Qi Erfeng's dish, and his white beard moved with his chewing movements, looking a little funny.
Li Daniu's face turned pale. In this way, Qi Erfeng's first dish won the praise of the four judges, and he and Pei Fangcai were in danger.
Although Li Daniu and Pei Fangcai's dishes may also be recognized by the four judges at the same time, even then, in this first game, they only had a draw with Qi Erfeng.
Such a situation is unacceptable to Li Daniu, in his opinion, Qi Erfeng, a little-known chef who does things, should be spurned by the four judges, how can it be recognized by the four of them at the same time?
Thinking of this, Li Daniu clenched his fists and said: "There is a reluctant invitation below, I don't know if the four judges can agree?" ”
"What?" Hu Qixiang doesn't have much of a good impression of this Li Da Niu now, he used to like to come to Zui Xian Ju to eat Li Da Niu's dishes, but today when he saw Li Da Niu's performance, he knew that Li Da Niu was a narrow-minded person, and Hu Qixiang began to dislike Li Da Niu.
"I want to try this dish of Miss Qi." Li Daniu said.
As soon as Li Daniu's words came out, everyone present was in an uproar. Even Pei Fangcai, who had been beside him without speaking, couldn't help but remind him: "Da Niu, are you confused?" ”
Isn't Li Daniu's request a blatant question of the judges?
Boss Zhang immediately came out to stop: "Li Daniu, you are not qualified to taste." ”
"Why am I not qualified to taste it? Don't you dare to taste the dishes made by Miss Qi for insiders like us? Li Daniu's tone was very arrogant, and it was obvious that he was angered by Boss Zhang's words just now.
In the past, Boss Zhang was his owner, and he was naturally respectful when he talked to Boss Zhang, but now Boss Zhang has nothing to do with him at all, and when he heard this kind of unpleasant words, Li Daniu naturally immediately went back.
Boss Zhang's face turned blue with anger, but it was not easy to attack in front of so many people, so he could only say to the four judges present: "Don't care about him, Li Daniu is just like his name, he is a wild bull." ”
Li Daniu was still unconvinced, and at this time, Qi Erfeng on the side said: "Chef Li, is the food I made really so delicious?" Even you have an appetite? ”
"Humph! I'm not having an appetite for your food, I'm just trying to see if your food is really as delicious as the four judges boasted. Facing Qi Erfeng, Li Daniu finally said what he thought in his heart.
Qi Erfeng shook his head helplessly in his heart, this Li Da Niu is too stupid! What she said just now was just to give him a step, and I hope he can go down the steps, don't embarrass the four judges and Boss Zhang anymore, and at the same time save his own face.
Unexpectedly, Li Daniu was such a person who didn't know what to do, and when he saw that the ladder handed over by Qi Erfeng did not go down, but climbed higher along the pole.
If he insists on dying, Qi Erfeng has no choice, even if he wants to help him, there is nothing he can do.
Qi Erfeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "I believe in the professionalism of the four judges. ”
The implication is that if you don't believe it, there is no way.
The county magistrate finally couldn't help it, and said to Boss Zhang: "Who is this?" I don't think there are three people in today's competition, right? Just Miss Qi and another master. ”
"What?" Li Daniu almost jumped up when he heard this, "What do you mean by this, do you want to deprive me of my qualification for the competition?" ”
Qi Erfeng didn't expect that the county magistrate would deal with this matter like this. Although it is a little too ruthless, Qi Erfeng thinks he likes it so much! For Li Daniu who hates people so much, he should be out of sight and out of mind, let him roll as far as he wants.
The county magistrate's face sank: "Am I not qualified for this yet?" ”
"......" Li Daniu, no matter how dull he is, he doesn't dare to say that the county magistrate is not qualified. In the entire Feilong County, the county magistrate is probably the most qualified person to decide this matter.
However, Li Daniu was still unconvinced: "The villain just wants to taste Miss Qi's dishes, it's not a big deal, right?" ”
The county magistrate sneered: "I just asked you not to participate in today's competition, it's not a big deal, right?" ”
"I'm ......" Li Daniu choked.
Qi Erfeng almost wanted to applaud the county magistrate, it was so cute! Using Li Daniu's words to scold him himself is really too enjoyable.
Boss Zhang immediately gave a few shopkeepers next to him a look, and immediately three or five people came up and pulled Li Daniu down.
Li Daniu was still shouting: "What are you doing? Let me go! Shady! Today's contest is shady! ”
Boss Zhang's face turned blue with anger, this Li Da Niu is really unreasonable, if this was before, he must have let him reflect on it in the firewood room for a few days.
Qi Erfeng turned his head to look at Pei Fangcai not far away, originally thought that he would be frightened by the battle just now, but he didn't expect this half-hundred-hundred-year-old man to look like Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change.
Seeing Qi Erfeng looking at herself, Pei Fangcai arched her hand slightly.
Li Daniu was driven away, and now only Qi Erfeng and Pei Fang are left to face off, I didn't expect this Uncle Pei's mentality to be so good, as if he was not affected by what happened just now.
Thinking of this, Qi Erfeng couldn't help but pay attention to the unattractive Pei Fang in front of him. A person with such a good mentality, if his cooking skills are better, he may be able to dig him back in the future and continue to work in the Drunken Immortal Residence.
Now, Qi Erfeng is already thinking about the problem as the proprietress of Drunken Immortal Residence.
