God-given mother: The villain cub is super clingy

The four men were laughing, but Sanlang was a little serious.

"Mother, Erlang is right. Look, this duck, although it looks good, still has a fishy smell when you eat it. But the duck made by mother has no fishy smell, only fragrance. I think this is one of the reasons."

Lin Yue listened to Sanlang's clear and logical explanation and became interested. "Oh, what about the second one?"

"Secondly, it's possible that the chef of this restaurant has become complacent and thinks that their restaurant is the best in Qingzhou City. With no competitors, he's become lazy and isn't putting enough effort into his cooking."

Lin Yue, alright! You can even analyze other people's psychology, what are you trying to do?

In fact, in this era, no matter whether it is pork, mutton or ordinary chicken and duck, all meat foods are prepared in extremely common ways. There are only two methods: stewing and boiling. There are not so many seasonings to process them separately, such as removing odors and fishy smells. Naturally, there will be peculiar smells, but everyone is used to eating it this way, so it doesn’t matter. It only depends on the cooking temperature.

But the four men ate the various meats that he cooked with his own seasonings. Their tastes had been spoiled, so they thought that their cooking was delicious, and there was nothing wrong with that!

As luck would have it, the person having dinner in the next private room was the young master of this restaurant, Liu Cheng. He could hear everything that Lin Yue and her son said clearly.

The two good friends at the dinner table are both in the same industry. They have always felt that Sifanglou deserves to be ranked number one in terms of both taste and dishes. However, the person next door is so boastful. I don’t know who dares to say that. Isn’t this just sabotaging them in person?

The two looked a little awkward, holding out their chopsticks, unsure whether to eat or not. Finally, they put their chopsticks down.

"Brother Liu, don't take this kind of talk to heart. The reputation of Sifanglou is not something that ordinary people can afford to slander!"

Liu Cheng couldn't sit still even more after hearing these words. He was originally very knowledgeable about this kind of food. When hearing such words, other people's first reaction was to slander, but he felt that there was something organic in it. If he didn't ask for information, he might never be at peace for the rest of his life.

Seeing his expression, the two friends knew that the meal was over, so they said goodbye together.

When Lin Yue and her four companions finished their meal and were paying the bill, the shopkeeper told them that their boss had treated them to the meal.

"My dear lady, our host said that you don't have to pay for today's meal. The host invites you to come and chat with us."

Lin Yue nodded. She thought that her bad words had probably come true. What the men said must have been heard by others!

Dalang was a little nervous when going upstairs.

"Mother, did someone hear what we just said?"

"This young master is absolutely right. My young master was just sitting next door. He's a very nice family, so don't worry. Our Sifanglou is a long-established restaurant, and he's been wanting to make some changes, but unfortunately he hasn't been able to find the right solution. After listening to you all today, I'd like to ask you for some advice. Please, please!"

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the most elegant room on the third floor. A man was sitting at the table making tea. When he saw them, he stood up and saluted.

"I am Liu Cheng. I apologize for the intrusion of inviting you all over here!"

Lin Yue also bowed to him and said, "I didn't mean to say that just now. I hope Young Master will forgive me."

Liu Cheng asked them to sit down. Seeing the four little kids, his face immediately lit up with amazement. "Are these four my sons?"

"Yes!"

"Come on, young masters, please take a seat. Here are the most delicious cakes in our Sifanglou. Please enjoy them."

Liu Cheng treated them like guests, which made the four men very happy. Therefore, they were very polite, imitated the adults to return the greetings, and sat down upright.

They knew very well that they had gotten into trouble because of what they had said just now, and they were still worried, wondering if this person would make things difficult for them, so their faces were very serious.

After getting Lin Yue's nod of agreement, they all symbolically took a little to taste, and the four of them couldn't help but brighten up their eyes.

"Well, mother, their cakes are delicious."

Liu Cheng smiled. He finally got the approval of the little ones for his pastries. It seemed that his restaurant was not that bad, and he felt a little better.

"Miss..."

Without waiting for Liu Cheng to speak, Dalang said, "My mother's last name is Lin."

"Oh, Madam Lin!"

Lin Yue also felt it was a bit strange to be called "wife". She didn't expect Dalang to be more sensitive than her.

"I think Madam Lin often cooks for the young masters at home. I wonder if there is anything that needs to be improved in the dishes at Sifanglou?"

The question was asked in a tactful way, but actually the question was to Lin Yue, you all said that the food you cook is better than the one in my restaurant, so tell me, the food in my restaurant is not delicious, then you have to show some strength and let me see it.

Lin Yue thought about it. She had originally planned to sell seasoning recipes, but she had never had the time. In addition, the situation next year was not optimistic, so she didn't think much about it. Now it seemed that Liu Cheng from Sifanglou was also a good businessman, so it would be better to make friends with him.

Here, she is unfamiliar with the place and has no relatives. She has to rely on herself for everything. She believes that more friends mean more paths.

"Young Master, no matter how much you say, it's better to cook it now. Why don't I go to the kitchen and make a dish for you to try?"

Liu Cheng was overjoyed and quickly asked Manager Meng to take her to the kitchen.

"Let the young masters wait here. Madam Lin, don't worry, I will entertain them well."

Lin Yue gave the four men some instructions and then followed Manager Meng to the kitchen.

Seeing that there were ready-made spare ribs in the kitchen, I made a dish of sweet and sour spare ribs. The main reason was that Sanlang mentioned it today and wanted to eat spare ribs, so I let the children try it as well.

In fact, Lin Yue’s cooking skills are just normal, but considering the lack of this and that in ancient times, it is already good enough!

Liu Cheng tasted only one piece and was amazed, especially the cooking method, which he had only seen in the capital.

Pork ribs stew is easy to make soft, but it also has disadvantages. If stewed for too long, the meat will become tough, and if stewed for a short time, it will become hard to chew and taste bad. In addition, people with picky tastes will easily taste the fishy smell.

Liu Cheng picked up a piece and tasted it. It was soft, tender and elastic, and the taste was neither salty nor bland. It was sour and sweet and very refreshing. It made people want to eat more after eating one piece.

"Excuse me, Madam Lin, why is this approach so different?"

Lin Yue thought about it and thought that maybe stir-frying was not popular at that time. From what she had seen, the dishes in the restaurant were mostly stewed and cold-braised pastries. So far, she had never seen stir-frying.

"This is called stir-frying. The food tastes better this way."

"I've had the good fortune to see this method of cooking in the capital, but it's only available to wealthy families and not as a staple dish. The taste is also extremely ordinary. I wonder if Madam Lin plans to sell this cooking method?"

Lin Yue shook her head. "I don't want to sell my recipe. I have many more dishes like this. It's better to sell my brain than my recipe. The young master is a businessman, so he knows that recipes are dead, but brains are alive."
