Farming and slapping face through time travel

Everyone looked at the stage expectantly, and even Qi Xuan, who was sitting not far away, wanted to get up several times to watch, also looking forward to Shen Jiyao's dishes.

The mayor saw that the dishes of several people were all fried, so he got up and walked to the center of the ring, and said: "The dishes of several people have been fried, and now we want to select ten people from them to try their dishes. As for how to choose, we Just toss the ball to decide, and everyone agrees."

Naturally, it couldn't be more fair to choose someone by throwing the ball. Everyone in the audience and the few people on the stage have no opinion.

Someone in the audience handed the mayor a ball made of tree vines, and the mayor said: "Don't grab it, whoever catches it will come up, and I will lose it." The mayor said and turned away. , ready to lose blindly, this move naturally won the favor of countless people present, who all praised it as fair and just.

The mayor counted a few, and then threw the ball with all his might!

The ball successfully fell into the hands of a strong man. The man held the ball and walked to the ring with a smile on his face. After handing the ball to the mayor, he waited aside, and the mayor continued to throw the ball.

In just a short moment, ten people were selected, and there was a woman among them. It was not easy to grab the ball among the crowd who were vying for a bite of delicious food.

The mayor said: "Now that everyone has been selected, it's time to taste. Everyone turns around and avoids it for a while. We will bring the dishes and arrange them before we can eat them.

The ten people turned around one after another, and the mayor asked someone to bring up a table, and asked the four restaurants to bring up the fried dishes.

Confidently, Shen Jiyao brought over the dishes he had fried. The sweet and sour pork ribs were browned in color and garnished with some chopped green onions. The hibiscus eggs were first steamed and then fried with chili oil and minced meat and chopped tomatoes. Pour it together on the egg custard, and then sprinkle chopped green onion. As for the boiled pork slices, this dish is even better. Shen Jiyao uses the lettuce tips to cook. He first dry-fries the prickly ash seeds and dried chilies, and then Put in chili oil for coloring, then mix with water and put lettuce tips into the pot to cook, and finally pour into a small earthenware pot, pour in the meat slices that have been blanched in advance, sprinkle with paste chili and minced garlic and chopped green onion, and then burn some hot oil Sprinkle it on top, and the boiled pork slices are complete.

The other two dishes are even more mouth-watering. The sauerkraut boiled potato slices are made very casually, even without any condiments, just put some salt. It's even more powerful. Shen Jiyao used paste chili noodles to mix, because the stewed vegetables themselves have a salty taste, so only soy sauce, pepper, garlic, chopped green onion, etc. were put in, and the five dishes with all the colors, flavors and flavors came out of the pan like this up.

The three of them proudly served the dishes they had made, but as soon as they saw Shen Jiyao's dishes, they couldn't hide the astonishment and admiration in their eyes, but in an instant, the amazement turned into jealousy.

People who can cook like this, if they don't break down, there is really no place for them.

Shen Jiyao took the time to take a look at the dishes cooked by several people, and he guessed it right. They all focus on big meat, and all three of them cook fish, but the methods are different. Chicken is one of the dishes, and the others are meat. Shen Jiyao just glanced at the internal organs and the like, and became more and more confident. Today's winner is none other than him.

After a few people arranged the dishes, the mayor began to distribute bamboo chopsticks to the ten people and asked them to start tasting the dishes.

The ten people ate around the table one by one. During this period, everyone's faces were very exciting, some frowning, nodding, and even joyful. Of course, some directly spit the food out of their mouths. He didn't feel any of these reactions, and he didn't worry about it. He had a lot of confidence in the dishes he cooked.

After a while, several people tried all the dishes and stood aside one after another.

The mayor came up to ask the people if they had tasted it, and after getting a positive answer, he waved to Shen Jiyao and the others and said, "Okay, come forward, ten of you, tell me which is the best dish." Let’s choose the most delicious dish first.”

Shen Jiyao and the others looked at the ten people one after another. Although they were full of confidence, they were still a little nervous at this moment.

After listening to the mayor's words, the ten people pointed to the cold stewed vegetables without hesitation, and said in unison: "This, this is the best one."

The mayor smiled, held up the stewed meat for everyone to see, and said: "The ten of them all agree that this is the most delicious dish. How many dare you to say, whose dish is this and what is the name of the dish?"

Those people stared at the plate in the mayor's hand with ugly expressions and didn't speak. They were puzzled, especially Wang Changshun, who obviously prepared everything, why did he choose a dish from this guy now? !

Shen Jiyao smiled, and the tension in his heart dissipated immediately. He said, "I made this. It's called cold braised pork."

Immediately, Xu Rong's cheers rang out from the audience, and even Xiao Doumi shouted excitedly.

The mayor smiled and waved his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. He put the stewed vegetables aside, and then asked ten people: "The best one has been selected, and now it's time to choose the bad one. Dare I ask you, what is there?" Which dishes do you dislike the most?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Changshun and the three of them immediately tensed up, for fear that what they cooked would be ordered. Since Shen Jiyao's dishes were fine, their dishes would naturally be rejected.

The ten people looked at each other for a while, and then pointed out six dishes, saying: "The taste of these dishes is really weird, sweet, bitter, and spicy, and I can't eat them at all."

Shen Jiyao's originally smiling face was stunned. He looked at the dishes they pointed out with disbelief, four of which were made by himself? !

This is impossible!How could there be such a low-level problem in his own dishes.

Shen Jiyao didn't say anything, but directly picked up a piece of ribs with his chopsticks and ate them into his mouth. The next moment, he frowned. The ribs were charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sweet and vinegary taste was just right, but there was a bitter taste inside. Thus making the dish nondescript.

Seeing his nervous appearance, everyone knew that this was Shen Jiyao's cooking, and they couldn't help being uproarious. Sometimes they often ate in Liuxianlou because they believed in Shen Jiyao's cooking skills, but they didn't want to believe it. Yes, there are all kinds of remarks.

Lan Qianjue couldn't accept this fact, but he wasn't the only one who had such emotions, neither Qi Xuan who was sitting on the stage, nor Xu Rong who was confidently waiting for Shen Jiyao's triumphant return, didn't believe that Shen Jiyao would do it. The four dishes that came out were all uneatable, so Qi Xuan got up and walked to the center of the arena to have a look. The colors of the dishes Shen Jiyao made were very beautiful, just by looking at them, one would have an appetite, why would it be so hard to swallow? Said, and Shen Jiyao's culinary skills have always been guaranteed, even if it is casually fried, it is impossible to be classified as the most unpalatable dish. He intuitively felt that this was weird, and the eyes of everyone present became sharper .

And the Xu Rongs in the audience panicked, how could it be possible that any dish their Big Brother Shen cooks is better than other people's dishes!

Shen Jiyao frowned. He covered his mouth with his hand, spat out the ribs and threw them on the table. He continued to try the other three dishes, all of which had a bitter taste.

Everyone looked at Shen Jiyao, and the audience was full of whispers.

The few people who had been watching were afraid that he would find out the clues, so they hurriedly said: "Mayor, now he only has one dish that can be served on the table, and the other four can't be eaten, even he can't eat it. Shouldn't it be time to announce who wins and loses in this competition?"

"Here." The mayor looked at the ten people and said, "Are you sure these dishes are not delicious?"

The few people who tried the dishes didn't know that it was made by Shen Jiyao before, but now they know that they can't help but look in disbelief. Although only one or two of them have eaten the dishes made by Shen Jiyao, his name is in the town. It was spread on the Internet, and every time the fried dishes were very delicious, they naturally didn't believe that Shen Jiyao's cooking was unpalatable, but that's the case, the facts were in front of them, and the two of them who didn't want to believe still hesitated to order head.

"There's nothing to say now." Wang Changshun said arrogantly: "Mayor, whoever lost our bet back then got out of the town. Now that he lost, shouldn't it be time to pack up and leave Nanquan Town?"

The mayor looked embarrassed, and just about to announce, Shen Jiyao said sharply: "Wait! Before that, I have something to ask them, the town, please give me some time."

The mayor said: "Well, no matter what the reason is, it's probably not appropriate for you to not get recognition for your cooking first."

Shen Jiyao frowned before making a sound, but Qi Xuan, who had been standing aside and watching, said lightly: "What's wrong, may you let the treacherous villain slander Shen's shopkeeper, mayor? Just ask whatever you want."

The mayor nodded his head as a tacit consent to Shen Jiyao's Qingqiu. Shen Jiyao looked at Qi Xuan gratefully. Wang Changshun's face on the side was instantly ugly. He was afraid of being found out, so he said dissatisfiedly: "I would like to bet and admit defeat. I am not as good as others." , why do you want to delay time here?! Is shopkeeper Shen just like this? Also! Who are you, pointing fingers here, dare not listen to what the mayor says, obviously hired by this guy with money people!"

"Presumptuous!" Before Qi Xuan could speak, the mayor yelled: "It's fine to talk about the matter, what are you doing with other people?! Are you impatient to live!"

Wang Changshun was taken aback, and thought to himself, it seems that this person does have some background, otherwise the mayor would not have reacted so much, even if he won today, he would not be able to afford it and walk away, I just hope things will not be revealed That's good.

Shen Jiyao looked at him and said coldly: "You don't know the scandal you did? Is it a skill problem or someone is doing it? Just check it out! What is the bitterness? We can go to the grain and oil store The shopkeeper to try."

Wang Changshun couldn't answer for a moment, he lowered his head and broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing his appearance, Qi Xuan knew that there was indeed something hidden in the matter. He snorted coldly and said, "Master Shen, what did you want to ask just now? Don’t let it go, ask first and then talk.”

Shen Jiyao nodded, thanked Qi Xuan, and went to find out the salt and sucrose he used to taste. He frowned indistinctly, and then with a clear face, he looked at Xu Rong sharply. After waiting for the others, he walked to the front of the stage coldly and looked at the audience, and said, "I have a question, I wonder if you can explain it to me, the five dishes are all made by myself, why the cold salad The stewed pork tastes great, but these four dishes are hard to swallow?"

Everyone looked at him curiously, and one of the men shouted loudly: "How do we know, what is the reason why shopkeeper Shen might as well tell you, I am willing to believe that shopkeeper Shen's dishes are unmatched, how could there be no way?" eat."

Shen Jiyao fixed his eyes and saw that the man was one of the people who had said in the restaurant that he supported him and would come to cheer for him.

Another person who supported Shen Jiyao shouted: "I also want to trust shopkeeper Shen, please tell us what's going on."

"Thank you everyone." Shen Jiyao moved his fists together and said, "There is no bitterness in the stewed meat, that's because I didn't use salt, and I tried my salt and sugar just now, but I tasted bitterness in it." , The stewed meat does not use salt so it has no bitter taste. Before that, I still have one thing that can prove that all of this is deliberately designed by someone." Shen Jiyao said and walked towards Lan Qianjue, Lan Qianjue took out from his arms Give him the package of paper-wrapped flavescens powder and the note.

Wang Changshun's face turned pale immediately, he never imagined that Lan Qianjue would fool him, maybe he used this trick to get a lot of benefits from Shen Jiyao, thinking of this, Wang Changshun couldn't help but ruthlessly gouged out Lan Qianjue glance.

Shen Jiyao looked at Wang Changshun, and then said: "The flavescens powder in this package is what I put in my salt bar, and this note is stuffed into Liuxianlou by someone a day ago. In the hands of Qian Jue, we thought it was strange, so we decided to see what they wanted to do. When we went to the appointment on the second day, someone spent two taels of silver to bribe the shopkeeper to add flavescens powder to my ingredients. It was in my hand. Naturally, the package made with sophora flavescens powder can no longer be eaten, but what they didn't expect was that they found the wrong person and let me know about it. Actually, I didn't intend to argue with them after I found out. I just want to win a game in a fair competition, but it seems that I still underestimated them, and even made second-hand preparations, defending one and then another."

When Shen Jiyao said this, he looked at Wang Changshun meaningfully. Sure enough, the mayor on the side understood the meaning of his gaze, followed his gaze, and immediately frowned in displeasure. Xuan is also smart, and he can tell what he means with just one glance. Maybe Shen Jiyao didn't expose it directly because there is no direct evidence to prove it.

Everyone in the audience was in an uproar, and began to discuss and guess who the person who wanted to frame Shen Jiyao was. Those who were smart enough to follow his gaze would understand, but they didn't say much. Over there, Wang Changshun heard that Lan Qianjue was Liuxian. The head of the building had already turned pale, and seeing many eyes looking at him at this time, he panicked immediately, and he held back a few breaths before saying: "Joke, we are here to compare cooking skills today, you should admit it if you lose, why bother?" Say that much."

"Is this the reason?" Shen Jiyao frowned, and said, "The fair competition that the mayor said doesn't count. Is it up to you or the mayor in Nanquan Town? So I immediately moved out of Nanquan Town, even if you used dirty means to win me, I would admit it, but if you didn't have the final say, I would say less, you acted so impatiently, it would make others misunderstand that you framed me , or you want to excuse the person who framed me, so Shopkeeper Wang, it’s better for you to say as little as possible and let the mayor solve this matter.”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Changshun trembled all over, and he really didn't dare to speak anymore.

Before the mayor could speak, Qi Xuan on the side said coldly: "Today we must investigate to find out the truth. He will be punished severely!"

Wang Changshun was startled, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still stood up straight with his stiff body.

The mayor looked at a few people, then looked at Qi Xuan, and said: "Then how to deal with this matter according to your wishes."

Qi Xuan looked at the crowd and said: "Since no one is willing to admit it, let's send someone to inform the government and let them investigate. Everyone who came to the competition today is suspected. They will all be arrested and locked up for a few days before you talk about it. Don't let this despicable person succeed in his tricks."

The mayor nodded and was about to do it, when Shen Jiyao said, "Wait, don't bother the mayor, I know who it is."

As soon as these words came out, the people present were in an uproar. Wang Changshun clenched his fists and tried hard not to tremble, while staring at Shen Jiyao.

Shen Jiyao glanced at him indifferently, then looked towards Xu Rong and the others, and said indifferently, "I won't call names for whoever is the swindler, just stand up consciously, otherwise when I ask you to come out, there will be no sympathy for you." As I said, I will deal with it as I want at that time. I will never tolerate it, but if you stand up now, no matter what your reason is, I can consider forgiving you. On the contrary, you know my temper, and it will not end so easily. .”

Countless eyes turned to Xu Rong and the others. Xu Rong and the others looked back and forth with puzzled expressions on their faces. Just when they couldn't figure out the situation, Li Erquan walked out of the crowd tremblingly from among the few people, hunched over, Kneeling directly on the ground with a thump, his entire upper body lay on the ground, his forehead pressed against the ground and cried regretfully: "Brother Shen, I did this all, but I was also persecuted by others, and I had no other choice. They said that if I If you don’t do this, I will be handed over to the government. I was framed by them, and I was wronged! Brother Shen, I deserve to die! Greed for life and fear of death will hurt you, blame me! It’s all my fault! "

Xu Rong and the others looked at Li Erquan who was kneeling on the ground in disbelief. Li Erfu suddenly woke up after being stunned for a long time. It's you?! Why did you harm Big Brother Shen! Isn't he good enough for us?! You are so heartless and ungrateful! How can I have a brother like you!" Li Erfu said angrily and raised his hand to Li Erquanyi fist.

Li Erquan was beaten to the ground, crying in pain.

Shen Jiyao said coldly: "Okay, don't cry, what's going on, tell everyone, who framed you."

Li Erquan got up quickly when he heard the words, and said: "I don't know who it is, they asked the servants to show up, but I must be one of them. I went to take out the trash that day, but I felt a pain in the back of my head and lost consciousness. , When I woke up again, I was already lying in a small room, and there was a naked woman lying next to me. I was startled, and the woman screamed, and then someone rushed into the room and took I turned around and said that I was a woman from a good family, and I was going to be sent to the government to be beheaded. Brother Shen, I was afraid, so I begged them for mercy, and they said that as long as I put a bag of food in the dish, they will not look for it again I'm in trouble, I, I was confused for a while, and I was fooled by them, I deserve to die, I deserve to die! I shouldn't have lied to you, and even lied to you that I was from my hometown! It's all my fault, woo woo... I should hit it! I should hit it!" Li Erquan raised his hand angrily and slapped himself vigorously as he spoke, the loud slapping sound was enough to show his remorse.

Shen Jiyao ignored him and let him fan him.

He looked at Qi Xuan and said, "Now that I have enough witnesses and their motives to frame me, can I go to the government and sue the three of them for their crime of framing me?"

"Yes." Qi Xuan said with a smile, "I'll send someone to turn them over to the Yamen." As he said this, he waved to the audience, and Ah Bao, who was guarding the audience, immediately ran in two or three steps when he saw this. Come up to obey Qi Xuan's order.

The three of them panicked now, and then Zhao Tianqi hurried forward and said, "Young master, you can't make false accusations casually. This matter has nothing to do with me. It was all Wang Changshun's idea. He is not used to the shopkeeper Shen's business." Better than his family, that's why I instigated Zhang Wu and I to have a cooking competition in the afternoon, but he was kicked out of Nanquan Town because he was afraid of losing, so he thought of two tricks to frame shopkeeper Shen, even the boy The woman who was framed by him was not a girl with a yellow flower at all, but a girl he found from a brothel, it has nothing to do with us, I hope you will find out."

As soon as these words came out, everything became clear, and everyone couldn't help but yelled, and began to insult Wang Changshun.

That Wang Changshun's face was ashen, with a look of despair, the matter was completely exposed and there was no room for maneuver, so he no longer denied it.

Seeing this, the mayor said: "In this way, the result of today's competition is no longer important. Presumably the big guys can see clearly who's cooking is good, so I won't say more. As for Wang Changshun, shopkeeper Shen Yes, what are you going to do with it?"

Shen Jiyao said: "I didn't intend to worry about adding things to my condiments, but he wanted to hurt my buddy, so I can't let him off lightly today, and I will send him to the official if he should, and leave it to the county magistrate." It's time to judge."

Qi Xuan said lightly: "Then send it to the official. As for the two of you, you didn't report what you knew, and you want to partner with him to frame others. You are not allowed to open the door for ten days to do business, and reflect on yourself."

The two looked at him dissatisfied, and the mayor saw this and said, "Why, you don't want to, then you two will go with him to see the official and see how the county magistrate treats you."

The two of them froze, not daring to speak again.

The matter was finally resolved, and everyone in the audience cheered. Shen Jiyao bowed to the mayor and Qi Xuan and wanted to leave. It's delicious, I wonder if I can order one or two dishes tomorrow."

Shen Jiyao was stunned at first, and then smiled and said: "Of course, everyone is welcome to come to the restaurant for dinner at any time. Thank you, young master and mayor today, let's go first and say goodbye." Shen Jiyao originally planned to invite two people to come to Liuxian Lou Juju, but it would be inappropriate to say it in front of everyone, so I decided to invite them to sit down after the matter is over.

After Shen Jiyao finished speaking, he got off the ring with Lan Qianjue, and walked towards Xu Rong and the others. Li Erquan continued to slap himself in the face. Both sides of his face were already swollen. Li Erfu looked at him with an uncomfortable expression. He hated and felt distressed, but he didn't dare to stop him.

Shen Jiyao passed by him at this time, without looking at him, he said lightly, "Go back first." After he finished speaking, he picked up Xiao Doumi, who was reaching out to him for a hug, and left first.

Li Erfu was keenly aware of Shen Jiyao's displeasure, and he couldn't help but start to worry about Li Erquan, and helped him back behind everyone.
