"Dad, isn't the food delicious?" Zhang Zezhen asked with a surprised expression on her face.

"Is this your secret recipe?" Xu Mingyuan was very angry, he felt that the woman in front of him had deceived him.

"Yes, I definitely made it according to the recipe, I don't believe you asked Xu Yue."

After Xu Yue heard this, she followed the lady and said, "I'll taste it!"

He took advantage of the situation to pick up a mouthful of meat and savored it carefully in his mouth, on the surface it was as calm as water, but in fact he was vomiting in his heart.

He swallowed the meat in pain, then laughed and said, "Yes, that's what it tastes like."

"Are you sure it tastes like this?" Xu Mingyuan's eyes showed a fierce light, and he confirmed it again.

"Yes, I'm sure, it was still done yesterday."

"Humph!" Xu Mingyuan slammed the chopsticks on the table.

Seeing that her husband was in such an atmosphere, Xu Zhao also took a bite of the dish, and before it reached her mouth, she couldn't help but say, "What kind of taste is this? A mouthful of stinky and baked taste" She didn't eat it, but threw it away.

Xu Mingyuan stared at Zhang Zezhen and said, "Zhenzhen, I've put up with you long enough, don't toast and don't eat and drink!"

Xu Yue saw that the situation was wrong, so she leaned towards the lady.

"Dad, what do you mean by that? Did you make the dish? Isn't it all my fault that I'm not satisfied?"

"Food, I asked you to make it, that's right! But thou hast teased me sincerely, and thou wilt thou not know what was wrong?"

"Daddy, you've wronged me! That's what this dish tastes like this, so what does it have to do with me?"

"Humph! It's nonsense, I didn't have you when I ate this Feng Fei wish! How could I not know the true taste of this dish?"

Zhang Zezhen and Xu Yue suddenly felt a burst in their hearts, this is a famous dish of the imperial kitchen, and he is not an important minister of the imperial court, how can he taste the taste of this dish?

"Dad, when have you ever eaten this dish?" Zhang Zezhen asked weakly.

"It's none of your business! What you're going to tell me is why this dish is the way it is!"

"Dad, you really can't blame me for this! I followed the steps on the recipe step by step, without any falsehood!"

"In that case, then you hand over the secret recipe, and I'll send someone else to do it!" I'd like to see if it's really what you say, without any idea!"

Zhang Zezhen swallowed his saliva and said, "Dad, it's no problem for you, but this secret recipe is not in my hand now, but in my house, and it fell there when I was cooking yesterday."

"Hmph!" Xu Mingyuan sneered and said, "It's okay, I'll send someone to your house to pick it up, you say, who do you want?"

"I put the secret recipe up, they shouldn't know where it is, why don't I get it after eating, and give it to your old man, okay?"

"You're taking me for a fool, aren't you? If you go back, you'll have to play tricks again!"

"Dad, you really wronged me, how dare I play tricks in front of you?"

"With all due respect, why do you have to get this secret recipe, is there any ulterior secret?" Xu Yue asked.

"Bold! What kind of thing do you dare to me?"

"Master, stop being angry, Yue'er is not sensible, don't be like him!" When Xu Zhao saw that his husband was going to target his son, he immediately stepped forward to stop him.

"Ignorant? I think he's too sensible!"

"Okay, if you are willing to go back and get it, I will let you go back, but, Zhang Zezhen, I have ugly words in front, if you dare to play any tricks, you have to consider the safety of your family!"

When Zhang Zezhen heard that Xu Mingyuan dared to threaten her family, her eyes immediately became sharp, but with her current strength, she had no way to compete with it, so she could only wait and see.

"It's just a meal, why are you so nervous? Come, husband, hurry up and eat, it will be cold later, and it will not taste good!" Xu Zhao saw that the atmosphere was so tense and wanted to reconcile the links, but Xu Mingyuan didn't want to eat this.

"Eat, I'm full!" He threw down his chopsticks and walked away.

Everyone else here is dead

Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and even the most arrogant Xu Chang couldn't help but shudder when he saw this scene. He blamed Zhang Zezhen for all this.

"You Dead Star! It's all your fault! We haven't had a good meal since you came to my house!"

Zhang Zezhen just wanted to refute, but he didn't expect Xu Yue to throw the chopsticks directly in Xu Chang's face, and then glared at him and said, "Dare to say it again, don't blame me for being unkind to you!"

"Wow, wow, wow......" Xu Chang cried directly.

Xu Zhao comforted Xu Chang while reprimanding Xu Yue: "It's obviously your daughter-in-law's fault, why are you angry with your brother?"

Zhang Zezhen took a mouthful of food unhurriedly and said, "Mother, you are pushing yourself so clean! I don't know who gave me a bowl of chicken soup not long ago, cursing her son for having no successor."

"You, you, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"

"Don't understand? Then let's just let me not say it! But if you can understand, you might as well help me tell that person that I have been a chef for so long and know a certain amount of herbs and ingredients, and persuade her not to be clever, otherwise she will provoke me one day, maybe I will put something bad in the dish, but I am no wonder!"

When Xu Zhao heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately put down his chopsticks, and he tried to gag hard, wanting to spit out what he had just eaten.

"Mother, don't worry, there is no one in this meal today, but it may not be the next time!"

"Lady, let's go!"

"Hmm."

"What's next?" I don't think Xu Mingyuan is joking."

"If Xu Mingyuan dares to touch half a hair of my family, I will fight with him!"

"You've always been calm and resourceful, why are you so irrational today? With our strength, we can't beat him at all, right?"

"What if you can't beat it? I just want to die, and I can't let him touch my family!"

"Calm down, we should settle the secret recipe now."

Zhang Zezhen tried to calm himself down, "The secret recipe can only be handed over, since he has eaten Feng Fei Yuan, he must know the real taste, if it is fake and true, it will not be good for all of us, and besides, it is not of much use to me."

"But have you ever thought that if you give him the secret recipe, he will let us and your family go?"

"And what else does he want?"

"I don't know, I just have a feeling that Xu Mingyuan's purpose will never be so simple!"

"Huh? Why don't we go to Mr. Lu for advice, in case he has a better suggestion?"

"Yes! Or is the lady resourceful, why didn't I think of it?"

"Go find Mr. Lu first, and then go straight back to my house!" Don't tell them these things just yet, I'm afraid they'll follow."

"Don't worry! I still know how powerful it is."

"Are you sure this is Shuitian Village?" Zhang Zezhen looked at this place full of bamboos and the unity of mountains and rivers, and was envious.

"It's so close to your house, you haven't even been there?"

"No, I didn't even know that there was such a fairyland-like village around!"

"It's not surprising, it's usually children who come here to play and get some bamboo to use back, but at most they only stop between the three waters, in fact, if you go inside, you can enter this existence."

"But I don't think we've gone far, so why don't they go inside?"

"Look over there!" Xu Yue pointed to the location of the descent of the mountain and said, "There is a path back there, many people will think that there is no road ahead of them after climbing this mountain, but only the waterway can really reach this existence!"

"I see!"

"I heard from you that day that there are all kinds of famous hermits living in Shuitian Village?"

"That's right! There is a dragon and a crouching tiger here, and they don't want to go to the court to be officials, so they hide here, want to be quiet, and they can discuss big things together."

"I finally know why you don't want to take part in the scientific expedition!"

"I can't compare to these people!"

"Later! You see! Is it Mr. Lu's residence in front?"

"Look at the like, go over and have a look."

At this moment, suddenly a man with extraordinary skills suddenly flew in front of them and drew his sword against them.

"Who's coming? Where are we going?"

"Under Xu Yue, this is my lady Zhang Zezhen, let's go visit Mr. Lu!"

"Who are you?"

"His students!"

Zhang Zezhen carefully observed the majestic man in front of him, he looked like a general, tall, standing like a pine, with a calm and stern voice, about thirty years old, although he was not handsome, but he was definitely a tough guy.

"Yes!"

"Stay here and don't move, I'll report to Mr. Lu!"

The two nodded, and the man left.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lu to have a dart master by his side to protect him."

"In other words, it seems that Mr. Lu's previous background is extraordinary!"....

"Mr. Lu agreed, you guys go in!"

"Thank you, General!"

Under the leadership of the man, the two came to Mr. Lu's residence, and as soon as they entered the door, they gave the impression of two words: simplicity. But without losing the demeanor of a literati, it is written on the flat of his head: Good is like water.

"Teacher Lu! You're courteous!"

"Xu Yue and Zhenzhen, come, sit down! I don't have much to entertain here, so don't dislike me, old man!"

"Teacher, what did you say? How dare we dislike you?"

"Come, let me introduce you, this is my military advisor Xiao Tian! You've just seen it!"

"Hello Xiao Junshi!"

Xiao Tian just nodded and did not speak.

"Why are you here today? Aren't we going to live in some days?"

"I'm really in a hurry, I want to ask you."

"What's so urgent, I can't even wait for a few days!"

"Someone threatens us that we must come up with the secret recipe of Feng Fei's wish, otherwise we will do it to my family!"

Lu Gaozhi's face suddenly turned cold, "This is in the village, who is so bold?"

"My stepfather, Xu Mingyuan!"

"Xu Mingyuan? Who is he? Ministers of the Imperial Court?"

"No, just a scholar."

"What? Hahaha! A scholar would threaten you? Where does this begin? I'm afraid you're overthinking!"

"Teacher, it's not like we're doing nothing, this person isn't as simple as you think."

"Oh? Tell me about it!"

"You attended the wedding banquet of the two of us at my house that day, and he also sent someone to keep an eye on our dynamics, and he always wanted to include my Jinyulou under his name, but fortunately, I attributed the signature of the restaurant to my father and mother in advance."

"What is his purpose in doing this?"

"I don't know! I only know that he is very interested in the secret recipe of Feng Fei Yuan, and has always wanted me to make it for him!"

"Did you do that?"

"It's done! But after I changed it, unexpectedly, he saw through it! Now he's forcing me to hand over the secret recipe, and I don't know what to do, so I'm here to ask you!"

"He's found out? Could it be that he has also eaten Feng Feiyuan's dish?"

"That's right!"

Lu Gaozhi was obviously a little surprised to hear this answer, he stood up and began to pace back and forth in the room.

No, this dish disappeared decades ago, and those who ate it were nothing more than some important ministers and people in the palace, how could outsiders taste it? Lu Gaozhi muttered to himself.
