From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Feng Zhengming was still at Luo Qing's grandparents' home with his daughter when he received a call that the Huiquanlou review was over.

"Hahaha, Master, just give the scores according to your own judgment, no need to ask me."

Master Yan on the other end of the phone also laughed.

"You know, kid, we can't find any points to lose? That's why you're so cocky?"

Feng Zhengming: "No, absolutely not. I think you will definitely lose points, Master. After all, Huiquanlou still has some shortcomings."

Master Yan: "Alright, alright, stop showing off. Huiquanlou's final overall rating is 4.9."

Feng Zhengming: "That means it's four stars."

Master Yan: "You can put up five stars now."

Feng Zhengming: "That's not good, right? After all, your overall score is 4.9."

Master Cui's voice followed: "4.9 is already a very high overall score, it can be directly rated five stars."

Then several other masters also said that Huiquanlou deserves five stars.

Feng Zhengming's restaurant recommendation guide this time draws on overseas restaurant rating standards.

But he doesn't just have two more stars than others' three stars.

His five stars actually represent the five stars on the national flag.

Moreover, the five stars on the medals and plaques are all five-pointed stars.

He also discussed it with the masters.

4.9 and full score are both five stars.

4.7-4.8 points means four stars.

4.5-4.6 points is three stars.

4.3-4.4 points is two stars.

4.0-4.2 points is one star.

If the score is below four points, no more stars will be given.

Because if the score is below four points, it means there are very obvious defects.

The old chefs all said firmly that restaurants with obvious defects should not be included in the recommendation guide, otherwise it would bring shame to Shandong cuisine.

Therefore, according to the prior agreement, Huiquanlou can be rated five stars.

Originally, Feng Zhengming wanted to give Huiquanlou four stars to put a little pressure on his senior brothers.

By then, others won’t say that I made a recommendation guide rating and gave my own restaurant full stars in the first year.

However, several old masters said that Huiquanlou was able to get five stars because of its strength.

"Zhengming, don't feel any pressure. You are not the head chef of Huiquan Restaurant. The fact that you can get five stars shows that your two senior brothers are capable."

"That's right. We will also announce the details of the ratings later, and then everyone will be able to see it clearly."

"Don't worry, everyone will believe in your fairness and justice."

"Even if someone has doubts, let them doubt. Anyway, your Huiquan Building has the strength to do so."

"Don't be afraid. As the saying goes, we should promote the virtuous regardless of their relationship with us. If you have the ability, you should show it."

"Since your recommendation guide scoring stipulates this, you should follow the rules."

When Feng Zhengming heard what his two grandfathers said on the phone, he agreed to give Huiquanlou five stars.

After hanging up the phone, Feng Zhengming looked at his wife who was holding his daughter.

Luo Qing stared at her husband's face.

I found that I didn’t see any joy on my husband’s face. Instead, he looked a little worried.

Luo Qing suddenly became a little worried: "What's wrong? Is it because Huiquanlou's rating is not high?"

Without waiting for her husband to answer, Luo Qing continued to mutter, "That shouldn't be the case. The chefs at Huiquan Restaurant are the eldest and fifth senior brothers, and Uncle He is in charge of the reception. Shouldn't the rating be very low?"

Seeing that her husband still didn't say anything, Luo Qing couldn't help but ask, "Did something go wrong?"

Feng Zhengming listened to his wife's continuous speculations and finally couldn't help but speak with a smile.

"It was the master and his team who gave the hotel an overall score of 4.9 and insisted on giving Huiquanlou five stars. I was thinking, if Huiquanlou was given five stars, would others question the fairness of the rating in my recommendation guide?"

Luo Qing was stunned at first, but then she understood.

"You really are. I thought Senior Brother and the others made a mistake. Look at how worried you looked just now."

Feng Zhengming: "How can I not worry? I'm just afraid that people will say I'm unfair and unjust."

Luo Qing couldn't help laughing at her husband's words.

"You just like to overthink. Do you think that if you don't put a five-star sign on Huiquanlou, people won't say anything about you? You made the recommendation guide yourself. No matter what, people will doubt your fairness.

You didn't participate in the scoring this time. It was Master and Grandpa who did the scoring. What are you afraid of?

Anyway, you are doing the right thing and standing upright, so why bother about what others say behind your back? "

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "I think so too. You don't need to care what those people say. Anyway, the standard is there. If you are not convinced, you can go to Huiquanlou and see according to the standard."

When Luo Qing heard her husband say this and saw him laughing, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be being teased by her husband.

The husband didn't worry at all about being accused of being unfair.

"Humph, you did it on purpose, didn't you? You pretended to be unhappy just now, deliberately making me worry."

As she spoke, Luo Qing reached out and patted her husband a few times.

Feng Nuanyu was in her mother's arms. When she saw her mother slapping her father, she immediately looked a little unhappy.

"Mom no, no, Dad no no."

The little girl couldn't express herself completely, so she waved her hands in her mother's arms, trying to stop her mother from hitting her father.

Luo Qing was stopped by her daughter, which made her feel both amused and helpless.

"You little girl, you don't allow your mom to beat your dad, right? You just watch your dad bully your mom."

Feng Zhengming walked forward and hugged his wife and daughter in his arms.

"Okay, don't be angry, I was just joking."

Feng Nuanyou was hugged by her father and mother together, which made the little girl very happy. She laughed non-stop between her father and mother.

Luo Qing was moved by her daughter's laughter. Looking at her husband hugging her, she was actually not angry.

"I really can't do anything about you two. My daughter is on your side now."

Feng Zhengming comforted his wife: "Don't say that. Our daughter doesn't just side with me. She will also protect her mother. Our daughter will definitely protect us in the future."

Hearing this, Luo Qing couldn't help but ask: "Do you want a younger brother? Let the younger brother protect his sister."

Feng Zhengming knew that his wife had always wanted to have another child.

The main reason is that his wife doesn’t want their daughter to have to work too hard to learn cooking from Feng Zhengming in the future.

I also don’t want Feng Zhengming’s skills to be left without a good successor in the future.

So Luo Qing wanted to give Feng Zhengming another son so that she could learn his skills better and pass on his culinary skills.

Feng Zhengming kissed his wife's forehead and said, "I don't want you to be too tired. Giving birth is too hard. In fact, we will be very happy with Youyou."

Luo Qing pouted: "But a child alone will be very lonely in the future."

Seeing his wife's look, Feng Zhengming, who had been pestered by his wife for a long time, finally nodded.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. We'll have another one later, okay?"

After getting such an answer, Luo Qing finally smiled.

"We have to plan carefully this time."

Feng Zhengming also nodded, then he hugged his wife and daughter and slowly turned around in the yard of his wife's grandparents' house.

Feng Nuanyou was held by her parents and slowly rocked in circles, which was very fun. The little girl leaned her head against her father's arms and enjoyed it very much. For Feng Zhengming now, he didn't care whether Huiquanlou could get five stars in the end.

Instead, what he cares most about is how much others value this five-star rating.

If everyone cares about these five stars, then naturally more people will be willing to work hard to get them.

This will also promote more recognition of Feng Zhengming's recommended guide ratings.

So Feng Zhengming actually wants Huiquanlou to be awarded five stars.

Once Huiquanlou hangs a five-star sign, it will become a place that many people want to check out.

Then when other people see everything about Huiquanlou, they will naturally follow suit and imitate it.

As long as everyone will follow and imitate.

Regardless of whether they really want to make the dishes well or not, as long as they imitate Huiquanlou, there will at least be basic guarantees for service and food quality control.

This is the purpose of Feng Zhengming's recommendation guide.

That is to supervise restaurants and hotels of all sizes to improve their service and quality control of food on behalf of customers.

In the afternoon, Feng Zhengming, his wife and their daughter went to play in the fields outside the village.

Little girl Feng Nuanyou was so reluctant to go home after playing in the fields.

When her parents carried her back, the little girl started twisting her body and making a fuss.

He insisted on continuing to play in the fields outside, and looked like he had no intention of going home.

When Luo Qing saw her daughter's expression, she looked at her husband, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Look, it's all your fault. You've made our daughter so wild that she doesn't want to go home. What do you think we should do?"

Feng Zhengming was also a little troubled by his daughter's troubles.

It turned out that the little girl's temper had really been made wild, and she insisted on playing in the fields.

Especially, she wanted her father to hold her and run along the ridges of the fields.

Dad can put her very low and let her touch the green grass next to her with her little hands.

Then he could lift her up high, making her feel like she was really flying.

After playing this a few times, the little girl became addicted to it and didn't want to go home.

Feng Zhengming still knows how to coax his little girl.

"Okay, Youyou, stop making trouble. Daddy will take you home by plane, okay?"

As Feng Zhengming spoke, he held his daughter high up in his arms and imitated the sound of an airplane.

Then Feng Nuanyu immediately stopped making trouble with her father.

The little girl was smart enough to spread out her arms and start flying like an airplane.

I saw my husband holding my daughter and walking like this, slowly starting from the fields outside the village and heading towards the village.

Luo Qing immediately smiled and thought that her husband was indeed the one with the idea, so she quickly followed him.

Feng Zhengming held his daughter high in his arms and walked all the way back to the village from outside the village.

Naturally, when they returned to the village and walked on the village road, the family of three still attracted the attention of many people in the village.

The villagers also knew Feng Zhengming, and many of them took the initiative to greet him.

"The champion is back."

"Is Feng Zhuangyuan taking his daughter on a plane?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Feng really loves his daughter."

Feng Zhengming responded to the villagers with a smile.

"I'm back. I played outside all afternoon, but the little girl still didn't have enough fun, so I had to fly back to my great-grandfather and great-grandmother's house."

Luo Qing also took the initiative to greet the villagers and greeted everyone one by one.

After Feng Zhengming and his friends walked over, the villagers started a discussion.

"This granddaughter of the Luo family is really amazing. She found such an amazing son-in-law."

"Isn't it? He is now the top scholar in the country and has opened a store in Shanghai, making a lot of money."

"The granddaughter of the old Luo family has been very powerful since she was young. When she was young, even her brother was beaten by her and ran away. No one in the family could control her."

"Yes, that girl was very powerful when she was young. The children in the village didn't dare to mess with her."

"I used to say, who would dare to marry such a bad girl in the future?"

"Hahaha, this is called one thing conquers another. Back then, many young men in the village thought she was pretty, but because she had glasses on her head, they didn't dare to pursue her. Now, hasn't she found someone even more powerful?"

"Girls still have an advantage if they are pretty."

Villagers talk about others behind their backs, but many times they don't do it behind others' backs.

So Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing, who had not walked far, had actually heard some discussions.

After hearing this, Feng Zhengming looked at his wife with a smile.

Luo Qing understood what her husband was thinking.

She pinched her husband gently.

"Don't be so proud. I didn't rely on you to turn things around."

Feng Zhengming held up his daughter and pretended she was a small airplane, while responding to his wife with a smile.

"Yes, my wife is so capable. She can turn things around on her own without my help."

After hearing this, Luo Qing smiled, and her smile was full of happiness.

"Thank you. I was just being stubborn. If it weren't for you, the villagers would definitely say bad things about me behind my back. They all look down on me and think I'm bad."

Feng Zhengming comforted his wife: "That's because they don't understand you. In my heart, you are beautiful, generous, gentle and considerate."

No woman can resist the compliments from the man she loves.

Luo Qing's face was flushed with shame, and her eyes were full of love as she looked at her husband.

Feng Zhengming stared at his wife's amorous expression, then lowered his head and quickly kissed her.

Then he quickly picked up his daughter and ran towards his wife's grandparents' house.

Luo Qing came to her senses and saw that the father and daughter had already run a long way away. She smiled and hurriedly chased after them.

"You bad guy."

Finally, after being carried by my father all the way, I flew back to my great-grandfather and great-grandmother's house as if I had turned into a small airplane.

Only then was little Feng Nuanyu satisfied.

After being put down by his father, he turned around happily and threw himself into his father's arms again, smiling happily.

Luo Qing hugged her husband's arm and looked at her daughter's smiling face.

She couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her daughter's nose.

"Humph, now you're happy. Let daddy carry you all the way back."

Feng Younuan raised her little hand and touched her little nose.

"Mom, dad."

The little girl couldn’t speak much else and could only call mom and dad over and over.

Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing truly felt the joy of being parents. Hearing their daughter calling them and looking at her lovely smiling face, they could really forget all their worries and sorrows.

Of course, Feng Zhengming and his family of three are very leisurely, but some people are very busy.

For example, Jubin Garden will be judged tonight. (End of this chapter)
