The chefs' eyes shone with a blazing light, and the whole kitchen could be heard of pins dropping.

When Ling Xiaorou placed the last budding magnolia flower on the plate, she was startled when she looked up and saw the hungry eyes of several chefs.

"That...... There are not many barbecues, these are for the lady to taste, if you really want to eat them...... I'll come back and bake it for you? ”

Although she still held a grudge against these chefs' previous attitudes, under such a blazing gaze, knowing that the 'enemy' was outnumbered, Ling Xiaorou had to let herself be soft first, after all, it was likely that she would open a shop in Jicheng in the future, and it was best not to offend people.

Looking at the mouth-watering barbecue on the plate, the chefs took a deep sip but shook their heads firmly.

As the best cook in the kitchen, Chef Qi, who has always been highly valued by King Ning Yuan, and is also the chief chef of the kitchen, gave Ling Xiaorou a deep salute, "Respect the master, please accept the little chef's worship." ”

The frightened Ling Xiaorou jumped aside, "Chef Qi, what is this doing?" ”

This chef Qi is round and mellow, looking at his age of fifty years away, such a large age to give her a salute, Ling Xiaorou is really afraid of being sacrificed.

Moreover, an honorific title like 'Respect for Teacher', Ling Xiaorou never dared to respond, how high a reputation must be in the chef world to be worthy of a 'Respect for Teacher'?

Even if her cooking skills are good, she can't be taken out all at once, compared to the celebrity chefs who have been immersed in it for several years or even decades, she has too many secrets, as long as someone looks up, they will know her experience from childhood to adulthood.

A family that has made bamboo for several generations has never heard of a cook in the family, let alone a teacher, how did she practice her cooking skills?

She didn't know how to explain it, barbecue can be the thought of Fu Zhi's heart, but those dishes that are too outstanding and too challenging will attract suspicion.

When it's time to be low-key, she definitely can't steal the limelight, so for the time being, she doesn't plan to show off all the deliciousness.

Well, Ling Xiaorou still hadn't understood that the change in attitude of these chefs was not because of the delicious barbecue she roasted, but because of the exquisite and realistic carvings.

Seeing that Ling Xiaorou refused to accept his gift, Chef Qi had no choice but to bow his hand, "Respect the teacher......"

Ling Xiaorou waved her hand, "The little woman is talented and incompetent, I don't dare to call Chef Qi so, the little girl's surname is Ling, if Chef Qi doesn't dislike it, call me Miss Ling." ”

Chef Qi followed Ling Xiaorou's call: "Miss Ling." ”

"Chef Qi has something to say, please say."

"In the next to see Miss Ling's barbecue is not only delicious, but also the skill of carving radish with this hand is very skilled, dare to ask Miss Ling which master she studied with, the skill of carving with ingredients is original?"

In Chef Qi's opinion, Ling Xiaorou should be very young, even if she devotes herself to cooking at such an age, it is difficult to achieve anything, like being able to roast meat so deliciously, just the marinated meat ingredients will go through many generations of unremitting improvement.

Not to mention the idea of carving, you have to be a chef with many gods to think of it?

Ling Xiaorou was stunned when she heard this, she never thought that the chefs in this era would not be able to carve and arrange the plates, if she had known that she would not be in the limelight just to make the dishes look better.

But it has come to this point, and it is too late to regret it, but fortunately, she was already prepared, covered her mouth and smiled: "Chef Qi is talking about this carving......"

Seeing Ling Xiaorou pause as if hesitating, Chef Qi chuckled in his heart, "Is there anything inconvenient for Miss Ling to tell someone?" ”

Ling Xiaorou shook her head, "Actually, carving can be said to be known to everyone in our village, it is not a secret, and there is nothing inconvenient to say." ”

Everybody will? The whole village?

This time it was not only Chef Qi who was shocked, but the chefs in the entire kitchen exclaimed, could it be that there is a hermit village of chefs in this world? Otherwise, how could they never have heard of it.

More than one person began to think in his mind, which chef who seemed to have an unknown master, but had extraordinary cooking skills, had not been noticed by them before, maybe these people were from Ling Xiaorou's village.

He Xiangxiu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Miss Ling, isn't your bamboo village famous for its bamboo ware?" When will it be carved again? ”

Ling Xiaorou said with a smile: "Isn't it famous for bamboo, many bamboo tools need to be carved, I have learned to make bamboo with my brother since I was a child, but I used the technique of carving bamboo to carve radish, I think my brother has laughed more than once that I don't learn no skills." ”

After listening to Ling Xiaorou's explanation, the chefs were suddenly disappointed and relaxed at the same time.

To appear in the kitchen of Ningyuan Palace, these chefs are all famous teachers, but they never thought that there would be people whose cooking skills were perfect enough to make them breathtaking.

The competition between chefs has always been fierce, and rather than believing that Ling Xiaorou is a mysterious competitor, and there are many masters behind her who will steal their jobs at any time, they prefer that she is just a genius born out of nowhere.

A person's ability is limited, no matter how talented he is, he can only amaze the world, if there are too many such masters, sooner or later one day their light will be completely annihilated.

Many of them have heard of this place in Bamboo Village, where the bamboo ware made is not only strong but also very beautiful, and the most breathtaking thing is the hollow carved bamboo, which can also be explained that Ling Xiaorou can carve radishes into perfect flowers.

People also said that this kung fu is learned from a young age, they are not a heart or a day or two can learn, however, almost everyone secretly decided, when they are free, they must secretly practice the ability of carving radish, and if it is not good, they will find a skilled craftsman to practice carving bamboo.

Looking at everyone's relaxed expressions, Ling Xiaorou knew that she had been fooled, sure enough, where there were people, there were rivers and lakes, and the war between chefs had always been bloody and bloody, she didn't want to be pushed to the forefront and become a fish on someone else's knife.

Although Hexiang was also amazed by the radish flowers, she didn't have as much thought as the chefs, and she was more concerned about how to carve the radishes into flowers than the chefs were thinking about how to carve the radishes.

Sure enough, when she saw the radish flowers on the side of the barbecue plate, Mrs. Qu, who was already sitting at the table waiting to eat the barbecue, lit up and said to the old princess sitting next to her: "Put the magnolia flowers on the plate, it seems that this barbecue is much more exquisite." ”

Hexiang was supporting the little girl next to her to bring the barbecue to the table, and said with a smile when she heard it: "Madame, take a closer look, what is the difference between this magnolia flower." ”

Mrs. Qu didn't care much about it at first, but when she heard Lotus Xiang, she knew that she wouldn't take it out if there was nothing different, so she picked up a vivid magnolia flower with chopsticks and put it in front of her to watch.

I don't know if I don't see it, but at first glance, Mrs. Qu was also surprised, "Hexiang, this flower is fake?" ”

Hexiang hurriedly said: "Isn't it that Miss Ling carved a radish, look at this carving is like the real thing, if you don't see it with your own eyes, the slave maid will have to be deceived by this radish flower." ”

The old princess next to her also looked at the novelty, "Is it really a radish carving?" It's hard to believe if you don't see it with your own eyes. ”

"Isn't it, Miss Ling's hands are really skillful."

As she spoke, Mrs. Qu put down the radish flower in her hand and looked at Ling Xiaorou lovingly, "You are Miss Ling from Zhucun barbecue, right?" ”

Ling Xiaorou stepped forward to greet Mrs. Qu and the old princess.

Mrs. Qu smiled and pulled her to sit down beside her, touching the hands that were not soft, and even had a few calluses on the fingertips, "Looking at your outfit before, it made Mrs. Ben look away, who would have thought that the 'aunt' who barbecued meat was actually a weak little girl." ”

Ling Xiaorou lowered her head embarrassedly, because the old princess was sitting, her eyes didn't dare to look wildly, and she said softly: "The folk girl is alone with her nephew to beg for a living, so she has to be careful in everything. ”

Thinking of the rumors about Ling Xiaorou's life experience that she had inquired about from Xiaofuzi before, Mrs. Qu sighed: "It's rare that you are a sentient person. ”

The meaning of the words is to praise her for loving her nephew well after her brother and sister-in-law remarry, if it weren't for the unwillingness of Qu Hongan to do the ugly thing of spoiling her concubine and killing her wife, she would really be reluctant to embarrass Ling Xiaorou.

Compared with the entire Qu family, Ling Xiaorou is still an outsider in the end.

The old princess had long heard Mrs. Qu talk about her worries about Qu Hong'an's attitude towards Ling Xiaorou, and she originally thought that Ling Xiaorou was a bewitching person, but a few words made her have a different opinion of Ling Xiaorou.

asked a few more words about Ling Xiaorou's life experience, and Ling Xiaorou also answered them one by one, and the old princess said: "You can stop a lot of trouble by bringing a face towel, but now there are women here, and it is not comfortable to hang the face cloth all the time, but it is okay to take it off." ”

"Concubine Xie has pity."

Ling Xiaorou is not hypocritical, they are all women anyway, and they are not afraid of anyone thinking about anything, after listening to the words of the old princess, she took off the cloth towel and held it in her hand.

Even though they had known that Ling Xiaorou was extremely beautiful, after really seeing this face that did not apply powder but instantly made the room full of delicate maids lose color, Mrs. Qu and the old princess still took a breath.

This is still Ling Xiaorou's young age, and she doesn't know how to apply grease and powder, if she grew up in a rich family, she has studied the way of beauty since she was a child, and she is afraid that it will be even more beautiful and terrifying.

Even so, this face will not be able to hide its brilliance in any way after another two years.

I thought that Ling Xiaorou was the kind of beauty that charmed people's hearts, otherwise she wouldn't let Qu Hongan, who was used to seeing beauties, never forget it at first sight, and thought that if Ling Xiaorou was uninteresting and insisted on pestering Qu Hongan, Mrs. Qu would directly and forcefully send her away with silver.

After seeing it, Mrs. Qu couldn't afford any malicious thoughts, and even this clean face made her want to protect it well.

Mrs. Qu's heart moved,

Holding Ling Xiaorou's hand lovingly, she said to the old princess: "Sister, how can I see how similar this little girl is to me when I was a child?" ”

The old princess understood, she also had a good impression of Ling Xiaorou, and said with a smile: "It's not a bit of a look, it's better for my sister to recognize a daughter." ”

Mrs. Qu stroked her palms and laughed, "What my sister said is very true, but I don't know if the little girl wants it." ”

Ling Xiaorou almost thought she had misheard, but she came back to her senses after seeing Mrs. Qu's smiling more and more loving face.

Would you like to do so? Those who don't want to are fools!
