The genius villain's mother is going crazy in the kid's variety show by relying on food

Chapter 142 Director Zhong!
Ordinary people may spend a few hours stewing a pot of pickled pork with preserved vegetables in their spare time.

But I would never spend several days just to make a dish like chicken tofu which is labor-intensive and likely to fail!

Therefore, such dishes are extremely challenging for the chef’s skills.

Just a clear soup is enough to keep 99% of chefs out.

The audience who didn't know much about the business was a little confused:
[I feel like I didn’t understand a single word…]

[As expected, a gourmet’s friends are also gourmets, this is called professionalism! ]

[I don't care, it's just praising our boss Nan for being awesome! ]

[Hey, why do I feel like this lady looks familiar! ]

[I think it looks familiar, too. I seem to have seen it somewhere.]

[Tiantiantian! My family! Isn’t this Director Zhong Yu? 】

[Who is Director Zhong? Is he a director? ]

[Are you stupid? He is the director of "A Bite of China"! ]

……

The barrage of comments went viral.

The screen refresh speed is more than twice as fast as usual!
It can be seen how shocked and excited the audience in the live broadcast room were at this time!
As some people moved the situation in the live broadcast room to other platforms, the related topic gradually fermented, and many people flocked to the live broadcast room to watch the fun.

The popularity of Nanzhi's live broadcast room had been going back and forth with Fu Chao's popularity, with the two taking turns to be the boss.

Now, the name "Zhong Yu" has become a stimulant!

Countless people came to Nanzhi's live broadcast room to watch Zhong Yu, causing the popularity of the room to soar, and directly widened the gap with the second place Fu Chao!

And this is not the end, it's just the beginning.

Zhong Yu was completely unaware of the commotion he had caused in the outside world.

She savored each dish carefully, her eyes full of seriousness and appreciation.

“There are almost no downsides,” she said.

The new audience was confused and couldn't help asking:
[Did they invite a professional chef of state banquet level for their variety show? Director Zhong gave such a high evaluation! ]

[What professional chef? It was Nanzhi who made it. Haven’t you seen any of the hot searches these days? ]

[I thought it was another shameless marketing trick from a variety show...]

[They really tried hard, even invited Zhong Yu, is the next step to market it as a state banquet? ]

[People who say sarcastic things obviously don’t understand Director Zhong. He is famous for being picky and upright! ]

[Remember when we were setting up a fried rice stall at the night market and the documentary crew came to film? Could it be...?]

[Don’t guess! Keep your mind down! Don’t look back and be laughed at! ]

……

kitchen.

Nanzhi was concentrating on cooking in front of the stove, oblivious to what was happening outside the window.

But there was a Fu Chao who kept nagging in her ear, repeating every comment Zhong Yu had made.

It seems that he is more excited than Nanzhi!

I guess he wouldn’t be this excited even when the movies and TV series he starred in were praised by the audience!

Suddenly, he mentioned:

"...But Director Zhong seems to like Shandong cuisine. She kept asking if you were a Shandong cuisine student. She also asked why Kung Pao Chicken is a Sichuan dish... So there is a Shandong dish for Kung Pao Chicken?"

Nanzhi paused.

She finally turned her attention to Fu Chao:

"Director Zhong said she wanted to eat Shandong cuisine's Kung Pao Chicken?"

Fu Chao shook his head:

"She didn't say that..."

Nanzhi said "oh" regretfully and was slightly absent-minded.

His hands kept moving, quickly scooping up the fried vegetables and putting them on the plate.

Fu Chao looked at it twice in amazement before continuing:
"…She just looks a little, uh, disappointed? Weird, why would Director Zhong be disappointed?"

Nanzhi handed the freshly cooked dish to Fu Chao:

"Then why don't I just cook a Shandong dish of Kung Pao Chicken for her?"

Fu Chao was stunned.

He held the plate stupidly: "Ah? You want to stir-fry Kung Pao Chicken? Or is it specially for Director Zhong?"

He emphasized the word "especially".

Who doesn’t know that Nanzhi treats Director Zhong and other diners equally?
Even yesterday, Xu Lin frantically hinted to Nanzhi that she should pay attention, use her skills, and try to maximize the value of Zhong Yu's trip...

Nanzhi pretended not to understand and continued doing what he was supposed to do.

Xu Lin couldn't do anything to her.

But now, why did Nanzhi suddenly change his mind?

Fu Chao looked at Nanzhi inquiringly.

Unfortunately, she didn't intend to explain too much and continued to wash the pot and prepare the dishes without looking away.

Fu Chao had no choice but to take the dishes out first.

When he arrived at the lobby, he saw that Zhu Jin and Zhong Yu's meal was almost over.

Fearing that the two would leave early, Fu Chao chose to step forward and meet their surprised looks:
"Wait a moment, our boss Nan is making Kung Pao Chicken."

"Ok?"

Zhu Jin pointed at the almost empty plate of Kung Pao Chicken on the table in confusion.
"Our food is already served."

Fu Chao had no choice but to give a brief explanation.

Zhu Jin suddenly became excited:
"Is your boss Nan so easy to talk to? Hearing Zhong Yu say she wanted to eat Shandong cuisine Kung Pao Chicken, you made it for her? Then I want to eat something that's not on the menu, is that okay?"

"Sorry, no."

Nanzhi came out personally with the dishes.

Many customers in the store were looking sideways, and the comments in the live broadcast room were also curious.

Fu Chao asked directly:
"Nanzhi, why are you here?"

"Serve the food."

Nanzhi explained with a smile.

Then, her eyes moved and happened to meet Zhong Yu's.

"Ms. Zhong."

Nanzhi did not call Zhong Director, but only treated Zhong Yu as a guest.

However, there was a special guest:

"Your Kung Pao Chicken is here."

Zhong Yu smiled slowly.

"Okay, thank you."

She picked up her chopsticks again and tasted this Shandong dish, Kung Pao Chicken.

The Sichuan version of Kung Pao Chicken has a spicy lychee flavor, which is sweet first and then sour, and spicy in the sweetness, with more emphasis on its spicy taste.

The Shandong version of Kung Pao Chicken is prepared in a similar manner, but it places more emphasis on stir-frying over high heat, highlighting the salty and fresh flavors of Shandong cuisine!

The Kung Pao Chicken made by Nanzhi is the best of the best. The chicken pieces are evenly sized, slightly reddish-brown in color, and the sauce is bright and thick, making it rich and moist. There is no juice or starch piled up in the dish, and the seasoning is only sugar, vinegar and soy sauce!
The chicken is tender, chewy, crispy and delicious. The different flavors intertwine in the mouth, complementing each other, giving people just the right feeling!
Zhong Yu took just one bite and then smiled.

She asked with great certainty:

"Your grandfather's last name is Nan, right?"

"Yes."

Nanzhi nodded.

As their eyes met, the two of them exchanged information that only they could understand.

Only the bystanders were confused, and the live broadcast room was filled with question marks:

[If Nanzhi’s grandfather’s surname is not Nan, what is his surname? ]

[Damn, it feels like they are speaking something we can’t understand! ]

[I have a bold guess, could it be that Zhong Yu knows Nan Zhi's grandfather? ]

[Nanzhi learned cooking from her grandfather. Hmm, the logic makes sense! ]

[The chef that Zhong Yu knows must be a great chef! Is there anyone who can tell me more? ]

[What? I'm not sure what they are talking about! ]

……

Fu Chao also had many questions to ask.

But deep in my heart, a trace of regret flashed across my mind.
