Chapter 57 Going to the County Town to Cook at Gu's House



"Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are getting better and better!" Brother Xu praised.

Brother Xu looked at his wife with pride.

Mrs. Xu's face turned red instantly when the man stared at her.

"My little sister taught me all this."

"Sister-in-law learns things quickly. She can learn it after being taught once." Xu Ying said admiringly.

Anyway, it's much faster than when she first learned to cook.

"Little sister, let's go to the county town tomorrow. I'll take you there." Brother Xu specially asked for a day off because he wanted to go to the county town to see the autumn leaves.

Xu Ying nodded and didn't refuse: "Okay, I have to get up early tomorrow."

Although the Gu family's wedding banquet was not a big one, the guests invited were all well-known figures in the county, so they had to be careful.

"Okay." Brother Xu responded.

Xu's mother was a little worried about her daughter's health. What a coincidence that her period came at this time.

"Girl, can you cook tomorrow?"

Xu Ying waved her hands. She was much better now and the medicine was quite effective.

Xu's mother knew what her daughter was thinking, and she was also expecting the same thing in her heart. She nodded and said nothing more.

Soon it was the next morning.

Xu Ying got up early, ate two eggs and prepared to leave.

Because Second Brother Xu was going to send Xu Ying to the county town, Mother Xu rarely spoke up and cooked two eggs for him.

The two of them set out at seven o'clock and arrived at Gu Fuying's house a little after eight o'clock.

"Yingying, you're here. I haven't seen you for a month. I missed you so much." Gu Fuying came up and gave her a big hug.

Xu Ying hugged her backhand and said, "I'll go to the kitchen first to see how the ingredients are prepared!"

Gu Fuying hurriedly took her to the kitchen.

The wedding banquet was held downstairs at home. The Gu family had set up the tables and chairs early. There were ten tables in total, two tables for relatives, two tables for good neighbors, and the rest were for friends and people from the workplace.

Xu Ying went to the kitchen, looked at the ingredients, and instantly planned a recipe in her mind.

Thinking of the Mandarin Duck Chicken that she had unlocked, Xu Ying felt that it was very suitable for this moment.

Before she could check the ingredients, she was stopped by a middle-aged man in his forties: "Where did you come from, little girl? Get out now. We are busy here and don't have time for you to mess around."

Seeing this, Gu Fuying quickly said, "This is the chef we hired. She will cook all the main dishes."

The middle-aged man frowned instantly. Before he came, he heard from the host that they had invited someone else to prepare the main dish.

He thought it was a famous chef from somewhere!

Now the condition is just a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. He instantly felt very disdainful. This host is really something. Even if his own child wants to help a friend, he has to know the occasion.

In his opinion, Xu Ying's clothes were ordinary and it was obvious that her family was not well-off. He thought that this girl's family must be very poor. Now the lady of the host family wanted to help this girl, so she asked her to cook.

It's no wonder the man thought so. In order to make cooking easier, Xu Ying found the only pair of pants and top in a slightly darker color that she had kept for many years.

Wearing it now makes people feel like they are from a poor family.

"Ms. Gu, you have to think it over carefully. There are so many people outside, and your Gu family is also a well-known figure. If the dish is not cooked well,

If this gets out, people will laugh at you. Besides, today is your elder brother's big day. But I'm just giving you a heads up. If you mess up, it has nothing to do with me." The middle-aged man obviously looked down on Xu Ying.

Gu Fuying got angry instantly, she raised her chin and said angrily: "You haven't even eaten Yingying's cooking, how do you know that her cooking is not delicious.

When she makes it later, it will dazzle your eyes."

The man responded and stopped talking. He didn't want to quarrel with the host.

"Fuying, you go and get busy first." Xu Ying said.

Xu Ying nodded. How could she be bullied?

Only then did Gu Fuying leave.

After Gu Fuying left, Xu Ying started cooking.

When the middle-aged man heard what Gu Fuying said before she left, he didn't want to cause any trouble, so he turned around and started to busy himself with his own business.

He is responsible for cold dishes.

Xu Ying took the menu and started to prepare the ingredients for the mandarin duck chicken.

Just as they finished cooking ten chickens, they were stopped by another cook.

"What are you doing little girl?"

"Cook!" Xu Ying looked up at the man with clear eyes and said.

The man looked surprised: "You are cooking, why are you making such a fuss!"

It was exactly the same as what the middle-aged man said just now.

Xu Ying explained and continued to work. The man shamelessly picked up the chicken she had prepared and was about to leave.

Xu Ying pinched his wrist with one hand and held a kitchen knife in the other, looking at him coldly: "Uncle, what are you doing?"

The man was shocked by her expression. He stammered, "Isn't this chicken good enough to be used?"

In fact, it was not the case. He knew that Xu Ying had taken care of it, but he thought that Xu Ying was just a little girl. Even if he took it, what could this girl do to him? But he did not expect that this girl was so fierce. She held his wrist with great strength, and he could not struggle free.

"Who told you you can use it? I spent a lot of time processing it myself, and you want to use it?"

"I, I don't know!" the man said fearfully.

"lay down!"

The man immediately put down the chicken in his hand.

Xu Ying let go of her hand and the man fled.

The man at the cold dish section was amused when he saw this scene, and when the man came over, he taunted, "Why, do you think the girl is easy to bully?

I've always told you that there are always people better than you, don't bully me just because I'm a little girl."

The man snorted coldly and said, "Don't think I didn't see it just now. Don't you also look down on this girl?"

The middle-aged man touched the tip of his nose and said with a guilty conscience: "I think this girl's cooking skills must not be very good. Even if she is a genius who has been learning cooking since she was young, she can't be a chef, right?"

What's more, he just looked at the girl's palms, and there were no calluses at all. Her hands were white and tender, and she didn't look like someone who had done heavy work at all.

Those who study to be chefs have been holding knife handles, practicing cutting vegetables, and using spatulas to stir-fry dishes all year round, and their hands have long been covered with calluses.

"Who knows?" the man said unhappily. It was a shame in life to be scared by a little girl in front of his mortal enemy.

Xu Ying was busy here, and the two men kept their eyes on her. It was not until they saw the knife skills in Xu Ying's hand that they changed their views of her.

It takes several years to master these knife skills.

That was when Xu Ying was in the end of the world. Her master had very strict requirements not only on the taste but also on her knife skills. Her spatial time was more than three times that of the outside world.

She spends one day outside and three days inside. When she has nothing to do, she goes to the space to practice knife skills and cooking.

The middle-aged man instantly became excited about Xu Ying's cooking skills.

The mortal enemy sneered and said, "How about we make a bet? I bet this girl only knows how to use a knife, and as for cooking, she must be far worse than me."

The middle-aged man still had some doubts about Xu Ying, but he didn't want to stand on the same side as his mortal enemy, so he finally said, "I bet this girl's cooking skills are definitely better than yours."

"Okay, if you lose, give me the bottle of wine in your house." said the enemy.
