Boss Ye had a bitter look on his face and kept saying, "Wife, this is not what you think. I am not that kind of person. You..."
Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Ye interrupted him, "Shut up! You're disturbing me while I watch Miss Zhou cook."
Boss Ye had no choice but to shut up.
Qingtian smiled in his arms like a little fox that had stolen honey, her eyes curved.
Seeing this, Boss Ye pinched his daughter's nose and said, "You little rascal, are you so happy to see your father being scolded?"
Qingtian quickly buried her little face in Boss Ye's arms, thinking that he couldn't see her expression and wouldn't know she was smiling.
But her occasional giggles still gave her away.
"Your mother is angry and you're still laughing?" Boss Ye asked deliberately.
"Mom is mad at you, not at me." Qingtian whispered in Boss Ye's ear, "Dad, you have to comfort Mom when you go back!"
Upon hearing this, Boss Ye touched the tip of his nose. He always felt that even if he confessed everything, he would still be scolded.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the sound of a gong in the arena, and someone shouted, "The competition has begun. Everyone, please come and take your food in order!"
After the order was given, all kinds of sounds suddenly rang out in the originally quiet venue.
Boss Ye looked at the various vegetables on the table above him and was immediately puzzled: "When did you go home to pick these vegetables? I didn't even know where they were."
"To ensure the freshness of the vegetables, we went there yesterday afternoon, picked the vegetables this morning, brought them back in the morning, and used them in the competition this afternoon."
Mrs. Ye, who had just finished explaining the situation, suddenly felt something was wrong and frowned as she asked, "When did you come back? If you were at home, how could you not know?"
"I..." Boss Ye was suddenly speechless, cleared his throat, and explained everything in detail, "I came back yesterday afternoon and had something to do with Brother Qingshan.
"I originally thought I would go home after talking to him, but he insisted on taking me out for a drink.
"We both drank too much without realizing it. I slept until noon, ate something, and then rushed to the store.
"Yan Fei told me that you brought Qingtian to watch the cooking competition, so I hurried over again."
As Boss Ye spoke, his words were full of flattery. He just hoped that his wife would not be angry with him because she came to him as soon as he was able to do so.
When Mrs. Ye heard that he was going to find Ye Qingshan, she snorted and didn't ask any more questions. She turned around and continued to pay attention to the performance of Miss Zhou in the field.
During this period, Miss Zhou often went to the dumpling restaurant when she was not busy in the afternoon.
Mrs. Ye was originally worried that she was a rich girl and could not endure hardship.
But after several contacts, Mrs. Ye found that she really liked to study cooking.
I would study hard at the dumpling restaurant and practice repeatedly after returning home.
Qiuyun also said that the servants in the house have all gained weight recently because in addition to three meals a day, they also have to eat the meals prepared by the young lady during practice.
But hard work pays off, the competition was fair and nobody disturbed her, so Miss Zhou quickly prepared her specialty dish and served it up.
After several judges tasted her food, they quickly gave her a wooden plaque proving that she had passed this round of competition.
When Miss Zhou got the wooden sign, she was so happy that she almost jumped up.
However, in front of so many people, she still tried her best to maintain her dignified demeanor and walked all the way back.
But when she was about to reach Mrs. Ye, she couldn't help but jog a few steps excitedly and handed the wooden sign in her hand to Mrs. Ye.
"Mrs. You, look, I passed!"
"Of course I told you that you'd be fine. You're the only one who's nervous."
While they were talking, Ye Laosi came over again without them noticing.
"Congratulations, Miss Zhou, for passing the initial test. Now you can focus on preparing for the next competition."
Boss Ye didn't know the rules, so he said, "There's going to be another competition, right?"
"That's right, there will be at least two rounds of competition. If you're unlucky, you might even have to compete for three rounds!" Ye Lao Si knew the rules by heart, "If Miss Zhou can get this wooden sign in the next competition, she can directly advance and wait to compete with my sister-in-law and the others.
"If you don't get the wooden card in the next round, you will have to participate in the third round and fight for one last chance."
Hearing this, Boss Ye looked at his brother and teased, "You know it quite clearly!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Miss Zhou's face flushed slightly. She lowered her head but couldn't help but glance at Ye Laosi out of the corner of her eye.
"Ahem!" Ye Lao Si cleared his throat somewhat embarrassedly, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said, "Our Yulin Guards are responsible for the security and maintenance of order from beginning to end of this cooking competition. Of course I know all this!"
Mrs. Ye said, "Then you must maintain order and not let Miss Zhou be bullied like she was in Fengle County before."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law!" Ye Lao Si promised, "Besides, this is a competition in the capital. With so many Yulin Guards present, no one will dare to cause trouble here."
Before he could finish his words, two people in the venue started arguing.
One of them was holding a kitchen knife and the other was holding a pair of tongs. They were arguing and were about to start fighting.
There was an uproar inside and outside the venue.
Ye Laosi was closest to the scene of the incident at this time. He did not bother to wait for his colleagues to arrive, and stepped forward to mediate.
Mrs. Ye called out worriedly from behind, "Old Four, be careful!"
