Back to Eighty Zero: The Magical Chef

As soon as she walked to the edge of the field and turned around, she saw a group of nosy village women not far away staring at her closely.

"Hey, this girl is so handsome, she is probably from the Xu family?"

"The three brothers and sisters surnamed Xu are not simple. Why did such a big farm become their family overnight?"

"Ms. Xu's family is very capable. Both younger brothers listen to her."

Chen Xiangqin pretended not to hear, and continued walking, one of the women stopped her: "Little girl, who are you from the Xu family?"

"Hello, Auntie, Xu Lanzhen is my mother."

Several village women were shocked when they heard the words, and they looked at each other, they didn't expect that Xu's mother-in-law would have such a delicate daughter, another woman couldn't hold back her curiosity, and asked, "Then where is your father? Why didn't you see him living with you two?"

Chen Xiangqin immediately understood that this group of people were inquiring about her family's gossip. She raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, and replied coldly: "Dead." After speaking, she continued to walk forward.

The village women were a little unhappy when they didn't get a satisfactory answer. They followed Chen Xiangqin's words and made their own guesses, and soon made up several big dramas in their brains.

Chen Xiangqin, who continued to walk forward, was suddenly attracted by a strange fragrance and stopped. She followed the fragrance all the way, and found that the smell came from a small bungalow.

"Mom, is this edible? It smells salty and stinky! I think I should throw it away?" The young man covered his mouth and nose in disgust.

"What do you know, these are mullet eggs. It's ready, it's delicious!" The old aunt processed the ingredients on her own, and soon a whole piece of black mullet eggs was washed and sliced.

Chen Xiangqin kept sniffing the smell outside the courtyard door, using this method to judge how the other party processed it.

Under the careful cooking of the old aunt, a delicious and sour overbearing aroma came straight to the tip of the nose: "Okay, try it, this dish is called braised mullet eggs, and it is a famous dish in the banquet! Your grandma’s special dish, I almost forgot the steps when it came to me, come, try it!”

The young man walked to the dining table and smelled it. The taste seemed to be pretty good. He picked up a spoon and took a sip, and just spit it out: "Mom, it's too salty! And it's so fishy!"

Chen Xiangqin outside covered her mouth and snickered. Although she didn't see the cooking steps of the old mother, there were many problems in the process of making the mullet fish eggs, which made the mullet eggs smelly and unpalatable.

Although the old lady didn't cook the dishes well, many of her steps are worth learning from. Chen Xiangqin looked around, found a corner where no one was around, stepped into the space, and planned to try cooking by herself.

Braised mullet eggs is a famous dish for the whole banquet, and it should be able to match the theme of reunion. At the same time, the ingredients of this dish happen to be the next eight treasures, so it is best to use this dish to participate in the competition.

After she entered the space, she washed the mullet eggs and cut them into thin slices, put them in cold water, and took them out when the water was half-boiled. Repeat this operation four or five times, which can effectively remove the ingredients themselves Strong salty, fishy, ​​smelly.

Take out the processed mullet eggs, put them into the broth and boil together, then add coriander stalks, pepper, soy sauce and mature vinegar.

After a simple seasoning, add a thin layer of gravy at the end, and the delicious braised mullet eggs are complete.

Chen Xiangqin tasted it and thought it tasted good. She put the dish in front of the small blackboard with satisfaction.

"Please continue to use the next eight treasures to cook and complete the tasting task for 500 people"

Every time she sees this reminder, she can't help but sigh. It seems that the 500-person tasting task can only be completed after the official opening of Fuxiangji.

Chen Xiangqin glanced at his watch, he had been out for more than an hour, if he didn't go back, the family would be in a hurry, so he hurriedly put down the things at hand, went straight out of the space, and trotted all the way back home.

"Xiangqin, where have you been? Qiaoyun just woke up, take her to the well to wash." Xu Lanzhen came out of the room yawning as if she had just woken up from a nap.

"I just went around the village in front of me, but I forgot the time, so I'm going to call Qiaoyun now."

When she entered the room, Yuan Qiaoyun was lying on the window looking out intently, her little face was flushed, and there was a shy smile on the corner of her mouth. Chen Xiangqin tiptoed behind her and followed her gaze.

Outside the window, not far away was the back of a man, who was wiping his sweaty body with well water. This man was his little uncle Xu Xiangjin.

Chen Xiangqin quietly approached Yuan Qiaoyun's ear, squeezed her throat and said softly, "Hey, watch out for peeking at a man taking a shower!"

The woman who was watching was engrossed, when she heard this sentence suddenly, she was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She clenched her small fists and hit the opponent angrily: "Xiangqin, you are so bad! You scared me to death!"

"How about it, does my little uncle look good?"

Yuan Qiaoyun blushed shyly, lowered her head and remained silent.

Chen Xiangqin sat down next to her, and lightly bumped her twice with her elbow: "Qiaoyun, if I introduce my little uncle to you as a date, would you be willing?"

Yuan Qiaoyun gave her a shy look, turned her head away, and did not look at her.

"You are talking, tell me the truth. If you think my little uncle is good, I will help you lead a red line. If you don't like it, then pretend I didn't say that!"

Chen Xiangqin pushed her twice again: "My mother fell in love with a girl from my hometown and wanted to introduce her to my uncle. If you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yuan Qiaoyun hurriedly interrupted: "I think... I think your little uncle... is very good."

"I treat you wholeheartedly as a friend, but you are fine. I want to be my aunt, Qiaoyun you..." Chen Xiangqin looked at her deliberately pretending to be aggrieved.

Yuan Qiaoyun was anxious, she didn't want to lose her best friend because of this incident, she quickly denied: "I didn't think so, don't be angry, don't be angry."

"Pfft-"

Following Chen Xiangqin's burst of laughter, Yuan Qiaoyun realized that she had been tricked, she threw herself at each other angrily, and the two girls laughed and quarreled.

Xu Xiangjin, who was outside the window, had been paying attention to this side for a long time, his ears pricked up like antennas, listening intently to the movement inside, and he heard all the conversations between the two girls verbatim.

Xu Xiangjin smiled all over his face, picked up the washbasin and towel, hummed a little tune and went back to the room.

In the evening, Chen Xiangqin deliberately told her mother about Yuan Qiaoyun's interest in her little uncle. Without saying a word, Xu Lanzhen immediately called her younger brother into the room: "Xiang Jin! Xiang Jin! Come quickly!"

Xu Xiangjin opened the curtain and walked in: "Sister, did you call me? What's the matter?"
