Chapter 65: Ruining the place? You have no idea of ​​your own limitations!

Zhu Qingyan and Chen Ziming sat face to face, and Chen Ziming appeared very calm.

Zhu Qingyan lowered his head, feeling the other person's gaze on him, his heart almost jumped out.

"Junior Sister Qingyan..."

"Senior Brother Ziming..."

They both spoke at the same time, then were startled at the same time and laughed.

Chen Ziming pushed her bowl of iced plum cheese forward and said, "Eat it quickly."

Zhu Qingyan was born beautiful and pretty, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhu Lan, but she was more gentle.

Chen Ziming looked at her and couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast.

My mother said that she liked girls like this.

Zhu Qingyan lowered his head, took a sip of the ice plum cheese, and slightly widened his eyes.

This taste is amazing!

But with Chen Ziming opposite her, she could only try to remain dignified and sip the wine in small sips.

"Senior Brother Ziming, um... the money for queuing, I will return it to you when I get back." Zhu Qingyan said in a low voice.

Of course Chen Ziming said no, he didn't need that little money.

Zhu Qingyan said nothing more and concentrated on eating the iced plum cheese.

No one took the initiative to find a topic to talk about, and the atmosphere became ambiguous and awkward for a while.

With a "bang", a bowl was placed heavily on the table.

Xiang Wenyuan sat directly in the seat between the two of them, with a puffed face and stiff neck.

Look at Zhu Qingyan, then look at Chen Ziming.

An expression that says, "I want to see what you guys are talking about."

If he can't stop it, then he'll join in!

…

At another table, Zhu Lan, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, finally looked away.

Qiao Youyou smacked her lips, "This yogurt feels a bit too sour..."

Qin Yuwei also commented: "It might taste better if it were thicker."

Zhu Lan: "Just drink it. It's already pretty good to be able to make yogurt of this quality in ancient times."

The three of them casually finished the iced plum cheese in their bowls and changed the subject to talk about the college entrance examination a few days ago.

The academy examination in Daliang is also held once a year, and only students with advanced degrees can participate.

Those who pass the academy examination can obtain the status of scholar.

Qiao Youyou sighed deeply and lay down on the table, feeling hopeless.

It’s too difficult, why is it so difficult!

Originally, everyone had successfully passed the county exam, and they were all full of confidence and were ready to sign up for the college exam.

But before they could sign up, Ouyang Ye stopped them, saying that their current level was not good enough.

This is definitely not acceptable!

The questions in the county exam are so simple, even if the academy exam is a little more difficult, it shouldn’t be extremely difficult, right?

As a result, Ouyang Ye took out a test paper from previous years' college entrance examination and asked them to answer it.

As soon as they started to do the questions, everyone was dumbfounded.

How could there be such a steep rise in difficulty?

Suddenly I understood what Zhu Lan said when I first came here.

The ancient imperial examination was extremely difficult, even more terrifying than the modern college entrance examination.

It turns out that the main course is just the beginning of the college examination, and the county examination is not even considered an appetizer, right?

Fortunately, these people understand better than anyone that there is no shortcut to studying, not to mention that they are just a group of underage children.

Master Xie was full of knowledge, but he never passed the imperial examination to become a scholar in his entire life. Does this mean that it is not that easy to pass the imperial examination?

The road ahead is long and arduous!

Qiao Youyou: "Speaking of Old Man Xie, I still miss him a little. I don't know if he can take part in the college entrance examination this year."

Since Xie Ding put aside his airs as a teacher, he began to discuss academic matters with Zhu Lan and his group of students and explore the mysteries of the universe.

Suddenly it was as if I had gotten the idea.

Opened the door to a new world.

Even when looking at the questions of the imperial examination, my previously stagnant mind suddenly came alive and burst into endless inspiration!

He was recently at home waiting for the results of the college entrance examination. For some reason, he had a vague feeling in his heart.

This one...will definitely work!

…

The kitchen of Yuxiang Pavilion is very large, enough to accommodate more than a dozen cooks and apprentices.

Due to the booming business, the kitchen is almost always busy. Everyone stands in front of their own workbench, either cutting vegetables with a "click" or stir-frying with an iron pan in one hand.

The sizzling sound of cooking, mixed with the aroma of various fresh ingredients, filled the entire kitchen.

After a busy morning, Wang Yuchu was sitting in a chair with his eyes closed, resting for a while.

He had long been accustomed to the sounds around him.

His status was different, so he just needed to give instructions on how to cook ordinary dishes and there was no need for him to do it himself.

Wang Yuchu dreamed that His Majesty praised his ice plum cheese as the best in the world. When he was about to receive the reward, he was suddenly awakened by the sound of "bang bang" of hitting fish.

The sound was ridiculously loud, and it seemed very abrupt in the already noisy kitchen.

When Chef Wang Yu opened his eyes, he saw his apprentice Shengzi hitting a carp on the head with a rolling pin.

The carp had fainted and was motionless a long time ago, but Shengzi was still banging on it as if he had a grudge against it.

Wang Yuchu, who was woken up, was a little unhappy, and walked over to ask him what he was doing.

When Shengzi saw his master coming, he said angrily:

"Just now the waiter in front told me that a few schoolgirls came and commented on your ice plum cheese!"

Wang Yuchu didn't care.

“That’s a delicacy that even His Majesty praised highly. Ordinary people have never tasted such delicious food, so it’s normal for them to be shocked.

Follow the master and learn well, and you will become a royal chef who will shock the whole of Daliang in the future!"

"No!" Shengzi threw the rolling pin away.

"They said your prune ice cream was too sour, then they said it didn't taste good enough... It really pissed me off!"

"Did a few female students say that?"

Shengzi nodded vigorously, "Yes, and they are just a few little kids, I don't know whose kids they are, but they actually came here and spoke so shamelessly!"

Wang Yuchu frowned.

He has been the imperial chef for thirty years, and except for His Majesty and the Empresses, no one dares to criticize what he cooks!

Besides, they were just a few little girls from the common people. What good things could they have eaten?

Ruin the place? You have no idea of ​​your own limitations!

Although he is old, he shouldn't argue with a bunch of kids.

But now his most proud skill is being questioned!

Chef Wang Yu said, you can question my character, but you cannot question the quality of my dishes!

His thirty years of dignity as a chef is at stake, and he must teach these arrogant brats a lesson!

Zhu Lan and the other two were still chatting when the waiter suddenly came over and said that the master chef wanted to see them.

When the waiter said this, his expression was respectful but contained a hint of mockery and disdain.

Are a few little brats qualified to point fingers at chef Wang Yu’s cooking skills?

Just wait, you will be convinced soon.

The back kitchens of general restaurants are important areas and not everyone can enter or leave freely.

Zhu Lan and the other two were led to the yard outside the kitchen, where there were many large baskets filled with various vegetables, fruits and other food ingredients.

Chef Wang Yu was still wearing his cooking apron and standing in the yard with his sleeves rolled up.

When he saw them coming, he found that they were three little girls who were not even as tall as his chest, and each of them was pretty and cute. He suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.

Forget it, let’s not be too harsh and scare the baby to tears.

But we also need to teach them a lesson, to let them know that when they go out, they should not pretend to know everything and be self-righteous!
