Chapter 144 The Preliminary Round Ends



Having just been rescued by Su Huaizhou and Duan Zhenyun, and Su Huaizhou being a good governor, he was tall and seemed a bit cold, but he was quiet and looked quite reliable. Wang Meili was unprepared: "I can cook a lot, even golden thread rolls with pea yellow, I can do that too."

She felt that she was no worse than Jiang Zao.

Duan Zhenyun understood why Su Huaizhou asked this.

He was afraid that Wang Meili was a strong competitor and would delay his plans.

Just try it and you'll know if I'm bragging. Duan Zhenyun poured Wang Meili a glass of water and said, "You can also make pea yellow. Comrade, do you know how to stir-fry the pea yellow filling?"

She was always looked down upon around Jiang Zao, and it had been a long time since she felt praised. Wang Meili was a paper-thin frame, so she said without thinking, "How else can I stir-fry it? Peel the peas, boil them until they are soft, sieve them, add sugar and boil them into a paste, then serve them on a plate and make them into a jelly."

The steps were correct. Duan Zhenyun asked in depth, "Stir-fry in an iron pan?"

"What else could we use if not an iron pot?" Wang Meili thought they were quite baffling. "You guys also came here by train. Are you participating in the chef competition?"

Good man, do you want to steal her skills because she is so good?

Wang Meili could not hide her thoughts from Duan Zhenyun and Su Huaizhou at all.

Duan Zhenyun's eyes flashed with contempt. Any skilled pastry chef knew that pea yellow should be fried in a copper pan. Pea yellow fried in an iron pan would turn black and look ugly.

Her basic skills are so poor, I can’t imagine that Jiang Zao is not as good as her... How bad must that be?

"We're here to participate in the competition, too. So, since you have no money, why don't you come with us? We can take you with us during the competition."

Wang Meili had no other choice but to follow them, otherwise she would not even have money to live in and could not find a place to compete.

After dinner, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative. Duan Zhenyun comforted Su Huaizhou: "Don't worry, Jiang Zao is not as good as her. How powerful do you think someone who has only learned for a few months can be?"

"You will definitely win first place in the county chef competition. No one can be better than you."

Su Huaizhou nodded: "Let's focus on the Yushansu matter, otherwise the city's chef competition and the national chef competition will still be at risk."

Only by getting the recipe of Yushansu can he have a greater chance of winning.

In a supply and marketing cooperative a few streets away from where Wang Meili lived, Jiang Zao had already washed up and was lying on the bed.

The preliminary round will be held the day after tomorrow, and the final will be held the day after that. She needs to have a good rest and conserve her energy to prepare for the competition.

She wanted to go to bed early, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.

There's too much space around the waist.

It became a habit for her to sleep with someone hugging her.

Jiang Zao tossed and turned until midnight before she fell asleep. Fortunately, nothing happened the next day, so she slept until nine in the morning. After eating something, Chen Baijing and Shi Chunzi asked her to go shopping in the department store.

The department store in the city has a lot of good things. The three floors are filled with a wide variety of goods, and the rectangular and square scarves are particularly beautiful.

Jiang Zao picked out two silk scarves, one blue and one white with red patterns.

I kept the blue one for myself and gave the white one to my mother-in-law.

Shi Chunzi was a little envious: "Your mother-in-law is usually very good to you. You always think of her when you are away from home."

Chen Baijing also felt that: "My mother-in-law ignored me when I was in confinement and asked me to wash my urine ring with cold water. I will remember her for the rest of my life. Judging from what Xiao Jiang wears, my mother-in-law must be good to her."

Here we go again, the complaints from women’s friends.

If you complain in a good way, you will be a friend to women, but if you complain in a bad way, it will easily cause women to be jealous.

Jiang Zao had nothing to complain about Gu Xiufang, so she folded her silk scarf and talked to them about Liu Chunhua, Jiang Ming, and then Jiang Jun, telling them about the unfair treatment she had suffered in her childhood.

Within half an hour, Shi Chunzi and Chen Baijing felt even more distressed for Jiang Zao.

I think her current abilities are the result of her unremitting self-improvement and steel-like will.

Even though the mother-in-law treats them badly, she is not their biological mother after all, and there is a limit to how sad they should be.

But Jiang Zao's mother was really mean to her.

Poor thing.

How pitiful.

Poor Comrade Jiang Zao chose another men's coat on the third floor. It was black and not thick, but the style was very nice. The coat cost more than 30 yuan, and he needed a receipt that was valid in the city or nationwide.

Jiang Zao didn't feel bad and chose the largest size with sleeves long enough to cover Xiao Shuisheng's arms.

Seeing the ambiguous gazes between Shi Chunzi and Chen Baijing, he couldn't help but complain, "My family is a jealous jar. If they knew I bought a silk scarf for my mother-in-law and not for him, they would be angry with me when they get home."

Thinking of Xiao Shuisheng's jealous and angry look, Jiang Zao felt a headache.

She also bought some pencils, notebooks and erasers for the children, three sets at once.

Shi Chunzi and Chen Baijing both had children, so they bought some as well, but they didn't buy as much as Jiang Zao. They couldn't help but ask, "You don't have children either, why are you buying so much?"

Jiang Zao put the book in his triangle pocket and said, "My eldest uncle's child will start school soon. My uncle's two children are almost the same age. Their mother is gone, and they don't have anyone who cares about them. I'll help take care of them."

For a time, Shi Chunzi and Chen Baijing had a very thick filter for Jiang Zao and thought she was a warm-hearted young comrade.

"Could the two children you mentioned be Jiang Shan's stepchildren?" Shi Chunzi had heard some things about Jiang Shan and could probably figure out the relationship between Jiang Shan and Jiang Zao.

Cousins, married into the Xiao family and became sisters-in-law.

Jiang Zao nodded. She would not miss any opportunity to discredit Jiang Shan.

Chen Baijing also knew: "I heard that Jiang Shan sent the two children to the countryside when she became pregnant. It's really pitiful. Thanks to your concern, the children's mother can rest in peace in heaven."

"Yes, our Xiao Jiang is kind-hearted, unlike Jiang Shan who is so cruel. She threw her step-son and step-daughter into the countryside. How pitiful it is." Shi Chunzi is also a mother, and she felt extremely pitiful just by listening to it.
