Adorable Food Goddess

Chapter 116: The Ancestor Has a Reward

Mother Gui then said: "It's really not made of chicken soup. I heard from Manager Hu that Chef Li uses a mixture of several vegetables. It's delicious but not greasy. As for which kinds of vegetables are used to make it?" , this old slave doesn’t know, this is someone’s secret recipe.”

Everyone is amazed again and again.

Xia Youshi said thoughtfully: "Chef Lu Yiming Lu seems to have made vegetarian chicken soup before, but the taste is not as rich and mellow."

Mrs. Yong'an Hou, who had tasted ice cream mooncakes before, said with a smile: "I knew that last year my ancestors invited Chef Li for their birthday. The dishes are delicious. The key is this kind of thought. It's really pleasing and pleasing."

"It's true, from the fragrant tea to the last snack, it's all done by him. I thought he was young and couldn't take on such a heavy responsibility. It was Xiaojing's strong recommendation, so I reluctantly let him try it. It's so meticulous and thoughtful." Yide felt sincerely.

The old ancestor smiled and said, "If your family wants to invite you, then you can only wait until the old sister's 80th birthday."

"Then we have to wait another nine years?" Mrs. Yong'an Hou pretended to be disappointed.

Yide joked: "If you can afford it, you can invite Chef Li home to be the chef."

"Okay, as long as your Helian Palace doesn't come to rob people, I will invite you." Mrs. Yong'anhou said with a smile.

Unknowingly, everyone's topic revolved around this previously little-known little cook.

Ye Jinrong slowly relaxed her vigilance, maybe the eldest princess has already forgotten the unhappiness just now.

"Sister, this cuttlefish soup has a very unique taste and is very delicious. You can try it." Ye Jinrong flattered Zhu Shi who was on the side.

Mrs. Zhu was about to taste it, but when she said this, she said indifferently: "I don't like eating cuttlefish."

While watching the play, she reasoned the servant woman's words and came to a conclusion, which was very embarrassing. Don't say that this fake Miss Ye has already offended the eldest princess, even if she didn't offend the eldest princess, knowing that she is such a person, she would not bother to make friends with her. It's a pity that they were unlucky and were arranged in the same seat, and they were still next to each other.

Ye Jinrong felt Zhu's estrangement from her, but she still wanted to try her best to make it back. Zhu's husband was the youngest academician in the dynasty, and his father-in-law was the prime minister of the left, with students all over the world. Jiang's joining Zuo Xiang's family is very helpful for the future.

"Then often use this double-flavored duck roll, the roasted duck is extra crispy..." Ye Jinrong continued to show her courteousness.

Mrs. Zhu said coldly: "Mrs. Wei, I can do what I want to eat by myself. Don't bother you, it's better to do what you want."

The young ladies at the same table smiled ironically.

"Mrs. Wei, are you really the eldest lady of the Ye family?" Someone challenged.

Ye Jinrong kept her aunt's words in mind, and said decisively: "Of course, the servant girl admitted the wrong person."

"But she knows you have a mole on the back of your neck." Someone questioned.

"My three sisters all have moles on the back of their necks. I look similar to my second sister. Maybe I misunderstood it."

"No matter how similar it is, since it was served before, it will not be mistaken."

"To be honest, I don't even remember having such a servant woman in my family. Maybe she was working in the Zhuangzi. The second sister would go to the Zhuangzi with her mother. Maybe she met at that time. I don't remember clearly. There is no need for me Lie about this kind of thing! If you don't believe me, you can go to Yangzhou to inquire about it." After Ye Jinrong calmed down, her mind became clear, and her words were impeccable.

"Then... she said that after Miss Ye got married, Miss Ye also disappeared, so what happened?" Mrs. Zhu was dubious.

Ye Jinrong seemed to be having a hard time opening her mouth, and said sadly, "I didn't want to publicize this matter, but I have to say it when it comes to my own innocence."

"My second sister is not missing, but sick. My mother sent her to her natal family in order to let her rest in peace. She will be taken back to Yangzhou when she recovers."

Everyone was a little shaken, thinking that her explanation was reasonable, maybe the servant girl had admitted the wrong person.

The atmosphere at the banquet finally eased, and Ye Jinrong heaved a sigh of relief.

The final highlight came, and the maids filed in carrying copper boxes one by one.

"Although today is not the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is the celebration day for the 70th birthday of our ancestors. We have a special dessert, ice cream mooncakes, for everyone to try something new. It can also be regarded as wishing everyone a happy reunion in advance, and harmony and beauty." Chang Yide The princess said her congratulations.

The ice mirror was opened, and a stack of crystal-clear, delicate and lovely mooncakes appeared in front of everyone.

Mrs. Yong'anhou's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "I was just waiting for this mooncake, and I tasted one that day, and the aftertaste is endless."

She went back and told her family that everyone was troubled by the glutton she said, so she had no choice but to send someone to Tianshangju to look for Li Yao, wanting to buy a few to try, but Li Yao didn't sell them and insisted on waiting until the birthday banquet was over. after.

"Really? Is it so delicious?" Although Xia Youshi asked, after this banquet, she had already firmly believed in Li Yao's cooking skills.

"You will know after a taste." Mrs. Yong'an Hou said with a smile.

Mother Gui helped to hold the top moon cake for the ancestors.

"Old ancestor, Chef Li said, this is specially made for you, it is different from others."

Ye Jiayao's consideration is not unreasonable, the ancestor is old and can't eat this kind of cold food, it will be bad in case of stomach trouble, so she specially made her favorite peach stuffing according to the taste of the ancestor.

"This appearance is very pleasing. It is attractive and appetizing." The ancestor praised.

Mother Gui helped her cut into small pieces.

The ancestor took a sip, the dough was cold and soft, soft but not sticky, and the peach-flavored filling was delicate and sweet, sweet but not greasy.

"I heard that this ice skin mooncake is a low-sugar and low-fat food, which is good for your health, ancestor, what do you think?" Yide said.

The ancestor asked with a smile: "Is there only one? One is not enough!"

Mother Gui smiled and said, "Old Ancestor, what's more, Chef Li made a box for you, and kept it for you to enjoy eating."

"This idea is really a coincidence, Yide. I am very satisfied with this birthday banquet. The theater troupe invited you well, and the cook invited me even better. Give the cook a big red envelope for me. Thank you for your hard work." The old ancestor Today I am very happy and very satisfied.

"No, please come here, I want to reward myself."

Ye Jiayao and the others were exhausted after finishing the last dish, but they couldn't relax and were waiting for the final evaluation.

Manager Liu rushed over in a hurry: "Brother Li, Brother Li, hurry up and tidy up, the ancestor wants to see you, so I will give you a reward!"

Deng Haichuan and the others were overjoyed. After a birthday banquet today, the rewards had been circulated outside three times. Each of them received a red envelope. The reward was not small, but the biggest reward was that their efforts were affirmed. Now the old birthday star wants to reward Brother Yao in person, which is a great honor!

"Brother Yao, quickly, take off the apron." Deng Haichuan urged.

Ye Jiayao was too tired to react slowly, and she only woke up after being urged by him. Busily untied the apron and went out with Manager Liu.

He Lianjing also got the letter, and happily ran to tell his eldest brother and Chunyu brother.

"The ancestors want to personally reward Yaoyao."

"Really?" Xia cChunyu was a little excited, Yaoyao's performance today was really good, it was beyond his expectation, it was enough to be described as amazing.

He Lianxuan patted Xia Chunyu on the shoulder: "You are so lucky."

He Lianjing was at a loss: "Brother, what does this have to do with Brother Chunyu?"

Why do you say Brother Chunyu is blessed? It's really inexplicable.

Xia Chunyu glanced at He Lianxuan, what did he say? I almost slipped my mouth.

He Lianxuan knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, and said to Helianjing: "Xiaojing, you go too, this time you have contributed the most, let the ancestors give you a reward too."

Xiaojing smiled and said, "That's exactly what I mean."

"Go, go, leave this place to me." He Lianxuan said.

He Lianjing hurriedly went to the flower hall, and walked to the door, it happened that Manager Liu brought Yaoyao over.

"Yaoyao, you are so powerful, today you have conquered everyone's stomachs."

He Lianjing went forward to meet him, wishing he could give Yaoyao a big hug.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said, "That's the little prince who knows people with his eyes."

He Lianjing laughed loudly, and the two entered the flower hall together.

"Old Ancestor, Chef Li is here." Director Liu stepped forward to salute.

Everyone looked sideways at the young brother next to He Lianjing, and they couldn't help but praise inwardly: what a handsome boy. Will he be the chef for this birthday banquet? How can it be? Aren't chefs all potbellied and greasy? How could he be a handsome young man?

When Ye Jinrong saw it, she was shocked. This person...why does this person look so familiar? Does it look like big sister Jinxuan?

But then I thought about it, although the elder sister can cook, and the cooking is not bad, but it is impossible to make the delicacies of today's banquet, not the elder sister, it is absolutely impossible.

Besides, the last time Lord Xia came to the mansion, he said that the elder sister was dead.

impossible……

It must be her own guilty conscience, and she is not calm when she sees someone who is similar to the elder sister.

Thinking of this, Ye Jinrong calmed down again.

"Grandmother, grandson pay respects to grandma on her birthday. I wish grandma a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan." He Lianjing stepped forward and lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down and kowtowed.

Ye Jiayao also imitated him, knelt down and shouted: "My Li Yao, I wish my ancestors good fortune as long as the sea in the East, and a life as long as the pine in Nanshan."

The old ancestor said happily: "Okay, get up."

He Lianjing has always been favored by his ancestors the most. If there were not many guests, he would cling to his ancestors and act like a baby.

"Xiaojing, you did a great job at this birthday banquet, and grandma is very pleased." The ancestor first praised his grandson.

He Lianjing scratched his head embarrassingly: "Old Ancestor, Li Yao actually came up with many ideas."

Yide whispered in the old ancestor's ear: "The last time Xiaojing ran to Shandong, thanks to Li Yao, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come back."

The old ancestor was stunned, and when he looked at Ye Jiayao again, his eyes were different.

This was the first time she had heard of it. It turns out that this young man is still Xiaojing's benefactor, so he should be rewarded even more.

"Brother Li, come here." The old ancestor waved at her.

Ye Jiayao got up, stepped forward generously, glanced at him, but saw a person she never expected to see here.
