Marrying Mrs. Hou and making a living by relying on her circle of food friends

Chapter 59 The seasoning is wrong

Yes, how could an unknown chef come out on top in the preliminary round? There must be something fishy going on here.

"Chef Jiang, since you are confident in your cooking skills, why did you stop me from coming for a review? Does it mean that you, a grown man, are afraid of losing to a little girl like me?" Gu Yunyue gritted her teeth.

She didn't want to say such words, but she had to say them now.

She set her sights on Su Qilin, who was her only hope at the moment.

Although Su Qilin didn't know what was going on, he had eaten Gu Yunyue's cooking so many times and knew her cooking well, so there was clearly something wrong here.

Seeing Jiang Yiming choked and speechless by Gu Yunyue, Gu Yunyue's eyes fell on him again.

Su Qilin immediately said: "In that case, let's review it. Fairness is always the priority in cooking competitions. If something goes wrong, we will naturally not be able to convince everyone."

When Jiang Yiming saw An Hehou speaking, he didn't dare to say no more and could only step back knowingly.

"If you have any questions, Chef Jiang, I will eat the pot in front of you."

"Then what if he has no problem but loses?"

"Lost? Lost to that Gu Yunyue? I ate this kitchen knife."

……

The two chefs below started chatting, and the people around them also cast their eyes over, watching the argument between the two with interest.

Although none of them hope that Gu Yunyue can win, but now that there is excitement to watch, some people really feel that it is not a bad idea to let her win. After all, they can still watch someone eat a kitchen knife...

But joking aside, the chatter of the chefs below would not affect the progress of the investigation above. Not long after, a discovery was made.

"Master Marquis, there is indeed a problem." Su Qilin's guards came up holding two earthen jars.

"This is this?" Su Qilin looked at the two cans of stuff in his hands, but nothing could be seen from their appearance.

"Back to Mr. Hou, the jar on the right belongs to Chef Jiang and contains this year's new sugar, while the jar on the left belongs to Mrs. Hou, but the sugar in it has been replaced with salt." The guard hurriedly replied.

Jiang Yiming's expression changed for a moment, but it returned to normal instantly. He looked around and saw that no one noticed him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Yunyue's expression became much normal.

"Go and bring me the person who prepared the seasoning." Su Qilin picked up two pills and tasted them, then nodded and ordered.

Soon, the eunuch who prepared the condiments was brought up.

When passing by Jiang Yiming, the two people's eyes met briefly, but they separated in an instant. Both of them knew that if Su Qilin discovered that they were secretly colluding, neither of them would survive.

Now I can only use the excuse of negligence to see if I can still save lives?
The eunuch was escorted in front of Su Qilin by the guards. Just as he was about to ask, the eunuch burst into tears, knelt down at Su Qilin's feet and said, "Master Marquis, it's all my fault this time. I didn't prepare the seasoning carefully. I didn’t expect that it would cause such a big trouble, please forgive me, Lord Marquis, and spare me this time.”

After saying that, he knocked his head to the ground, and a crisp sound suddenly sounded, which made Gu Yunyue's brows frown.

But Su Qilin sneered. He naturally didn't believe this kind of rhetoric. If he was really careless, it was most likely that both of them were wrong. There would never be a situation where one person was right and the other person was wrong. Now He must be lying.

But knowing it now is useless. After all, there is no tangible evidence in hand. Even if you know that the person in front of you is lying, there is nothing you can do against him.

Su Qilin thought about it and said: "You can avoid the death penalty, but you can't escape the living penalty. Come, drag me down and hit forty big boards with a cane, as a warning to others." "Yes." The guard beside him responded and prepared to drag him forward. people.

Forty large boards are enough to keep people from getting out of bed.

"Wait a minute -" Although Gu Yunyue also thought this person was hateful, he didn't really cause any bad consequences. This punishment was too severe.

She hurriedly said: "Master Marquis, I think it was just a temporary failure for him. In my opinion, it is better to try again as soon as possible. If he knows his mistakes and can correct them, just give him a little punishment, then forget it."

"It would be bad if the competition was ruined because of him."

Su Qilin had never set a precedent like this, but since it was rare for Gu Yunyue to speak, he naturally agreed.

It was precisely because of such an accident that the previous game was cancelled.

However, it was still early, so naturally we could have another competition as soon as possible. The result this time was that Gu Yunyue won a big victory.

Gu Yunyue's name was finally cleared.

However, she also recognized Jiang Yiming's cooking skills even more.

She stepped forward again and stretched out her hand: "Chef Jiang, your craftsmanship is indeed extraordinary. I hope we can compare again if we have the opportunity."

"I don't need any competition." Jiang Yiming's tone was still bad, "Mrs. Hou, you were lucky to win today. However, we still have the finals. When the time comes, I will definitely let you expose your true cooking skills. art."

"The only one who can win the first place is me."

After he said these harsh words, he left immediately.

You know, Jiang Yiming originally learned cooking skills from his family since he was a child. He has been on the list of cooking competitions over the years, but now he is being compared with a woman. Naturally, he feels uncomfortable. .

If it weren't for the fact that this person was Mrs. Hou, he would definitely make a fuss.

Gu Yunyue looked at the man's leaving figure and sighed. It seemed that it was impossible for him to turn hostility into friendship with this man.

Now that the game has been settled, Su Qilin and others naturally have no reason to stay. They reached out and patted Gu Yunyue on the shoulder and said: "He is just a villain who can't afford to lose. You don't need to care about his opinion. Otherwise, I will be very angry in the future."

Of course Gu Yunyue wouldn't be that stupid.

She nodded, smiled at the person and said, "I really want to thank you, Mr. Hou, for today. Otherwise, I would have nothing to say about my grievances today. I wonder how Mr. Hou wants me to repay you?"

Su Qilin looked at this man's smile and couldn't help but be stunned.

Before he could react, Gu Yunyue was already walking in the direction of the carriage.

"Why don't I make you a dessert." She was still chattering, completely unaware that Su Qilin had been left behind.

But soon, Su Qilin reacted.

After the two returned to the Hou Mansion, Gu Yunyue got into the kitchen.
