Chapter 516 Asking Questions

"After listening to you talk so much, I feel suddenly enlightened." Liao Lili said sincerely.

"I'm very surprised, why did you think of asking me?" Jiang Yang asked.

Liao Lili was silent for the simple reason that he was not able to comprehend. What his grandfather said was too profound for him to understand.

And Jiang Yang is about the same level as him now, and Jiang Yang's words can inspire him.

But he couldn't say this reason. He couldn't say that I was too talented to understand too much.

Another point is that Jiang Yang realized it by himself, and there are many differences with what his grandfather said, and it is this difference that is the most valuable.

Seeing Liao Lili's silence, Jiang Yang said, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

Liao Lili nodded.

Jiang Yang also took it seriously, because things like reasons are not that important.

"I have another question." Liao Lili said.

"What's the problem? Tell me." Jiang Yang said while eating.

"Do you think the more flavors the better?" Liao Lili asked.

Jiang Yang froze for a moment, he didn't expect Liao Lili to ask this question.

"I think, of course, the more the better. After all, there is no more flavor, but more flavor." Jiang Yang said.

"Really?" Liao Lili was at a loss.

"Why did you think of asking this question?" Jiang Yang was a little curious.

Liao Lili pursed his lips and said, "My grandfather created the Qijue Phoenix Claw and became a culinary master. His achievements in stewed vegetables are enough to establish a school. The Qijue Phoenix Claw has become the symbol of my Liao family's stewed vegetables. Everyone thinks that the Qijue Phoenix For stewed vegetables like claws, the more flavors the better, until ten, hundred, thousand, endless. My father also thinks so."

Jiang Yang looked at him seriously and listened to his story.

There is nothing wrong with this. In Jiang Yang's heart, this dish is a dish with infinite possibilities.

Liao Lili continued: "My father has a big heart. He wants to surpass my grandfather and create a dish with nine flavors. You have eaten that dish. But no matter what, the nine flavors can't be perfectly reflected. It didn’t work. This dish also became a knot in his heart, which made him unable to become a master chef, otherwise he would have become a master chef long ago.”

There is a lot of information in Liao Lili's words.

For the first time, he knew that Liao Lili's father, that handsome middle-aged man, had not become a culinary master for a long time because of one dish.

Jiang Yang knew that the dish Liao Lili was talking about was called Jiuxiang Phoenix Claw. Liao Aiguo let him taste it when he was studying cooking in Liao's private kitchen.

"Except for my grandfather's Qijue Chicken Feet, there is no other dish that surpasses it. Even my grandfather has never made a dish with more than seven flavors. It seems that the seven flavors are the ceiling and cannot be surpassed." Liao Lili said As he spoke, his expression became more and more bewildered.

"I was thinking, is it true that the more flavors the better? Even if you cook a hundred flavors of stewed vegetables, is it really better than seven flavors of stewed vegetables?" Liao Lili asked Jiang Yang, as if asking himself .

Facing Liao Lili's question, Jiang Yang didn't have an answer for a while.

Are a hundred flavors really better than seven flavors?

People's sense of taste is limited. Even if they cook dishes with thousands of flavors, can people really taste them?
Jiang Yang was also puzzled for a while.

In the past, he also believed that the more flavors, the better. Nine flavors are more difficult than seven flavors, and the taste is naturally more delicious.

But... is this really the case?
Jiang Yang had no answer.

"Don't you know?" Liao Lili was a little disappointed. He thought Jiang Yang could give him the answer, but now Jiang Yang is full of doubts.

"I do not know."

Jiang Yang said frankly.

He is also full of doubts now, but he has a feeling that as long as he finds the answer, he will definitely make great progress in stewed vegetables.

"Ah~"

Liao Lili sighed, now he is even more at a loss, no one can give him an answer.

"Maybe you should look for it. No one will know the answers to all the questions, and not everyone has the same answers." Jiang Yang said.

"Really? How to find it?" Liao Lili asked.

"Your heart will tell you, maybe the answer is in your heart, waiting quietly for you to find it." Jiang Yang said.

Liao Lili touched his chest subconsciously.

"Heart...?"

"Okay, let's rest for a while, it will be busier at night." Jiang Yang said.

"Yes." Liao Lili said.

Jiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Liao Lili agreed, otherwise Jiang Yang would not know how to answer Liao Lili's question.

These questions are like asking what is life.

Liao Lili was still thinking, Jiang Yang was right, maybe his answer was in his heart.

For the first time, Liao Lili began to face his own heart.

In the past, there was a grandfather who was a master chef and a father who was gifted, but he seemed mediocre.It has always been what grandpa and father said to do, and he will do what he said, taking what grandpa and father said as the truth, not thinking for himself, but constantly doing what he said.

For the first time, he began to face his heart directly, and began to think about whether what his grandfather and father said was really right?
Although Liao Lili still doesn't have an answer, he has already started to learn to walk out of the barriers and walk out of his own path.This is a huge improvement for him.

Jiang Yang didn't know how important this moment was to Liao Lili.

Jiang Yang didn't rest, he started to prepare the three dishes that Chen Cuiyi promised tonight, not cooking now, but preparing now.

Every step of processing the ingredients for these three dishes was done by Jiang Yang himself.

Since he agreed to Chen Cuyi, he naturally wouldn't be lazy and let the chef handle the ingredients.

Time passed slowly.

Chen Cuyi took Liu Aiyuan to play in Rongcheng, but found that he was not as familiar with the places in Rongcheng as Liu Aiyuan.

As a native of Rongcheng, it is better for others to understand Rongcheng.

Chen Cuyi was very embarrassed.

"I used to come to Rongcheng with my girlfriends often." Liu Aiyuan said with a smile.

She took the initiative to explain because she saw Chen Cuyi's embarrassment.

"Cough, that's it." Chen Cuyi said.

It's not that he's unfamiliar with Rongcheng, but he's not familiar with what's fun in Rongcheng.If you ask him where there is delicious food, Chen Cuyi will be very familiar with it.

He also tried to take Liu Aiyuan to eat delicious food, but Liu Aiyuan said that she wanted to save her stomach to eat delicious food at night.

When Chen Cuiyi heard the words, he had no choice.

The two held hands and played together. For the first time, Chen Cuyi thought shopping was quite interesting.

It was also the first time for Liu Aiyuan to go shopping alone with boys. This feeling was very novel, and the feeling of going shopping with girls was completely different.

The two were tired from shopping and sat on the bench to rest.

Chen Cuyi raised his hand to check the time, and said, "It's almost there, I'm going back to the hotel."

"I'll be with you!" Liu Aiyuan said with a smile.

"But I'm in the back kitchen of the hotel, and it's full of oily smoke." Chen Cuyi said.

Liu Aiyuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I used to go into the kitchen to watch my dad cook."

Chen Cuyi laughed: "Then let's go."

　I stayed up late to write this chapter, couldn't stand it anymore, and fell asleep.
