Chapter 140 Qu Renjie's Secret (18)

After tasting the dish 'Moon on the Qingming River', it was the turn of Li Qiang's hail.

Li Qiang prepared three copies and placed them in front of Li Yu, Liao Lao and Qu Renjie respectively.

Li Yu picked up the spoon and looked at the brightly colored hail in front of him, emitting bursts of fruity fragrance and coolness.

Ice cubes are so precious, even in this season in the palace, they are rarely used. Father would only take out some during the hot dog days of summer and give them to the concubines in the harem to cool down. They are rarely used for food, let alone eaten directly. .

Li Yu dug a spoonful, and found that the ice was much softer than he had imagined. He said it was ice, more like soft snow.

The ice inside is stained by the jam that is poured on it, which makes people's eyes shine when they look at it.

He opened his mouth and held the spoon in his mouth. As soon as he entered the mouth, he felt a cold breath filling his mouth, and a stream of coolness poured into his nose, which lifted people's spirits up.

Then there is the sweetness of jam, chewing carefully, the smoothie pops in the mouth, mixed with the softness of red beans and the springiness of taro balls, then for a moment it seems like the whole person is floating in the water in the hot season of dog days , mixed with various fruits, along with a huge wave, washed the whole body.

After eating in one bite, let out a mouthful of cool air, and the mouth feels extremely comfortable!
"How does it taste?" Liao asked, looking at Li Yu who was the first to taste it.

Li Yu didn't speak, and then took another bite. The fruity and cold smell in his mouth and nose made him obsessed!
Where is ice, it is a wonderful experience like a fairy!

Seeing that Li Yu ate so selflessly, Lao Lao also took a mouthful, and the flesh on his face trembled from the cold as soon as it entered his throat.

Immediately afterwards, the expression on his face became weird, and then another spoonful, and then he opened his mouth and let out a cool breath.

"Cool!"

"Is it that exaggerated!" Qu Renjie looked at the shaved ice in front of him, picked up a spoonful, and put it in his mouth.

Then, just like Liao Lao, with a strange expression on his face, he picked it up and took another bite.

After a while, the bottom of a bowl was seen.

"This is called shaved ice, is it so delicious?"

"It's just a bowl of ice balls, it's too exaggerated!"

"But, it looks delicious!"

"If only we could taste it too!"

"Isn't it time to choose a winner?"

Li Yu chose Li Qiang's shaved ice to win, and Qu Renjie chose Dongmenyan's Qingming River to win last month.

The right to decide the last vote is in Lao Lao's hands.

The diners all looked at Mr. Liao, and saw Mr. Liao standing up, looking at Dongmenyan and then at Li Qiang, and said, "I've decided to abstain! Therefore, this competition is a draw!"

"What, it's actually a draw!"

"Can a bowl of crushed ice be a tie with Mr. Dongmen's 'Moon on the Qingming River'? This is too hasty!"

"Look, the son who ranked first in the judging process has been wearing a mask. I think he might be bought by the God of Cookery Hall!"

"Being able to come with Liao Lao shows that this person is of extraordinary status, and he shouldn't have been bribed?"

Just when everyone disagreed, Xia Jin came out, cupped her hands and said:

"It is the honor of the God of Food Hall to reach a draw with Young Master Dongmen today! Therefore, the God of Food Hall has decided to give everyone a bowl of shaved ice for free! Starting tomorrow, shaved ice will become Li Qiang's main delicacy, and it will be sold in the God of Food Hall all year round! "

Li Qiang went to buy a few servings of shaved ice, and gave one to the diners one by one, and Dongmen Yan also got one.

He took a sip, his eyes lit up, and he smiled lightly.

"It's kind of interesting!"

"Young Master Dongmen, I have said before that the God of Food Hall cheated, now you have seen it! Xia Jin must have bought someone, otherwise there would be no draw!" Qu Renjie approached Dongmen Yan and whispered .

Dong Menyan looked at those diners with surprise on his face and Li Qiang's earnest expression of making shaved ice, and then looked at Qu Renjie who was standing beside him in a strange mood, suddenly felt that his appetite had dropped.

"When you ate shaved ice just now, did you think it was delicious?" Dongmen Yan asked.

"It's too bad, it's just some crushed ice!" Qu Renjie belittled.

Dongmenyan frowned. Rumor has it that the number one son of the capital has both ability and political integrity, but now, he looks like a shameless villain who is talking nonsense with his eyes open!
It wasn't delicious, but his portion was devoid of any residue, and he secretly licked off the remaining bit of jam with his tongue.

In this way, he can still say slanderous words, which makes Dongmenyan start to doubt whether what he said before is true or not.

Looking at Xia Jin again, she didn't forget to promote shaved ice during the competition, and she also spread the reputation of her apprentice to create momentum for the new recipe of Shishentang.

He even began to suspect that she deliberately went on to this competition to promote her Food God Hall.

Sensing his gaze, Xia Jin looked at him and said, "Master Dongmen, go to the second floor, let's have a good talk!"

"Please!" Xia Jin made a gesture of please.

Since she knew that Dongmenyan was here to investigate the cause of Dongmenqian's death, Xia Jin had no reason to let Qu Renjie pour dirty water on her while she did nothing.

This is not her style of doing things!

Dongmenyan walked up to the second floor, followed by Xia Jin.

Seeing the two of them going up to have a secret talk, Qu Renjie couldn't sit still!
If Xia Jin told everything, he would definitely die!
