Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens

Chapter 888 Chef 1
The Xia brothers all became good helpers to Liu Shu.

They used the technology brought back from abroad to improve domestic productivity and economy.

Because of their butterfly wings, the history of this country has changed accordingly.

Although there were invasions, they were quickly driven away by the Chinese people.

The new country was established more than ten years earlier, thus avoiding many detours.

After Liu Shu left this world, he did not return to the primitive world, but continued to travel through time.

There is a small world next to this world, and Liu Shu dived into it.

……

In this life, Liu Shu was born into a family of culinary experts.

Yanagi's grandfather was once the imperial chef of the palace, but he was driven out of the palace because he was involved in a fight between princes.

He should be thankful that he was just a marginal figure and was only swept by the tail of the typhoon.

Otherwise, he would lose his life.

The grandfather was still brooding over being kicked out of the palace, and was determined to have his descendants become royal chefs and enter the palace again.

Unfortunately, Liu Shu's father in this life did not have much talent in cooking. Even though he studied hard, the most he could do was to cook food a little better than the chefs in ordinary restaurants, which was not up to the standard of cooking at all.

Fortunately, the eldest grandson Liu Da inherited his grandfather's talent.

His grandfather was very happy and taught Liu Da cooking since he was a child.

Liu Da himself also likes cooking and does not find it hard to practice his cooking skills.

Therefore, at a young age, his cooking skills had already surpassed Father Liu's.

Although Liu Shu's cooking talent is not as good as Liu Da's, he was also forced by his grandfather and father to practice his cooking skills since he was a child.

Liu Shu, who has not yet recovered his memory, is full of resentment about this.

He regained his memory when he was ten years old.

This year, my grandfather passed away and my parents also passed away due to an accident, leaving only two brothers in the family.

Liu Da is only seventeen years old this year and is still a teenager.

This stimulated Liu Shu to recover the memories of his two lives.

One is the earliest memory of the end of the world, and the other is the memory of Song Qingshu.

The two memories did not help Yanagi to improve his cooking skills much.

In Song Qingshu's previous life, he lived in Wudang Mountain for a long time, eating mostly vegetarian food, and the big pot rice cooked by Taoist fire workers, the taste...

Later, after he had made some progress in his practice, Song Qingshu began to practice fasting.

Only occasionally when I felt hungry would I quietly go down the mountain to the restaurant for a bite to eat.

In his first life, he did eat a lot of modern delicacies, but at that time he only knew how to eat them and had no idea how those delicacies were made.

Later, the end of the world came. Although Liu Shu learned how to barbecue and cook instant noodles, and later learned how to cook porridge and vegetables, he had no cooking skills.

Liu Shu and Liu Da depend on each other for survival, and Liu Da is very good to Liu Shu, his only relative.

Liu Da would agree to whatever Liu Shu wanted to do, except cooking.

Liu Da likes cooking and is very strict with Liu Shu.

Every day, Liu Da would help Liu Shu to complete the basic skills meticulously.

Then, Liu Da will teach Liu Shu a dish and let Liu Shu practice it on his own.

After a morning like this, Liu Shu can move freely, but Liu Da will continue his research and never slack off.

This resulted in Liu Da having excellent cooking skills just after he came of age.

Liu Da was determined to fulfill his grandfather's wish, and this opportunity came soon.

The emperor is holding a cooking competition for his mother, selecting the top ten contestants and granting them honors from the court.

The top three will have the opportunity to enter the palace and become imperial chefs, serving the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

After Liu Da got the news, he immediately went to the government office to register. The prefectures of various places would hold preliminary rounds and select the top three to be sent to the capital to participate in the finals.

The whole country is watching this event.

Even the preliminary rounds in every state capital attract a lot of attention.

State officials take the competition very seriously, and it is openly held without any tricks or backdoors.

There is no other way, the participating chefs have to be sent to compete in front of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

If the level of the contestants they sent was too poor and angered the emperor and the empress dowager, they would be punished.

Therefore, the competition is very fair and those selected are people with real level.

Liu Da is the youngest contestant, and no one is optimistic about him except his younger brother.

But the dishes he prepared amazed all the judges.

These referees all came from wealthy families and were used to eating good food, but the dishes cooked by Liu Da still made them want to eat more.

Liu Da successfully won the championship and will soon go to the capital with a letter of recommendation from the government.

Liu Da couldn't leave his brother alone at home, so he naturally had to take Liu Shu with him.

The two brothers prepared their gifts, got on the carriage and headed for the capital.

The journey was quite safe, and now is considered a "prosperous age".

Although the Kangxi and Qianlong eras of prosperity were exaggerated, the people at that time did live a little better than at other times.

There were no robbers on the road. Even if there were, it didn't matter whether there were any or not. Liu Shu and Liu Da could easily defeat the robbers.

Although Liu Da studied cooking, he also practiced martial arts since childhood.

In my grandfather’s words, how can you have the strength to stir the wok if you don’t know martial arts?
The Liu family has martial arts inherited from their ancestors.

The martial arts value in this world should be similar to that in Wei Xiaobao's world.

After Liu Shu regained his memory, he wrote out the Wudang Nine Yang Gong from memory and placed it in the corner of the study.

Liu Da found this martial arts secret book when he was tidying up his study. He started practicing and has now made some progress.

Nowadays, Liu Da’s martial arts skills are definitely at the top of the world.

The two did not encounter any robbers, but instead met two scholars who were waiting for rescue on the road.

One of the scholars sprained his ankle, and without timely treatment, his foot became swollen larger than a steamed bun.

There was no village or shop nearby, and the other scholar was thin and weak, and could not walk far with the injured scholar on his back.

The two men stayed in this deserted place for a night, and the injured scholar developed a fever.

If the situation is not dealt with, the injured scholar might die.

Liu Da asked the two men to get on the carriage, treated the injured scholar's foot, and gave him medicine to reduce his fever.

When going out, Liu Da was well prepared. He not only brought a lot of seasonings, but also some emergency medicines.

After finishing the task, Liu Da got out of the carriage and sat in the front with the coachman.

He discovered that the two scholars were actually girls, so he naturally had to avoid suspicion.

The two girls were quite smart and discovered their genders from Liu Da's actions.

The two were very grateful for Liu Da's thoughtfulness.

After entering the city, Liu Da sent them to the inn.

The next day, Liu Da and his brother continued on their journey.

When they left the inn, they found that the two men were waiting for them outside the inn.

Two girls came forward and said they wanted to go on the journey with them.

The injured girl said, "Young Master is a good man. We feel safe with you."

Liu Da: “…”

Liu Da really wanted to refuse, but the two girls stared at him with their big watery eyes, making it difficult for him to say no.
