Mrs. Ye's roast suckling pig had just reached a critical moment. She stared at it very attentively, not even daring to blink, for fear that it would be over-roasted if she was not careful. She had no mind to pay attention to the situation of others at all.
Boss Ye stuffed Qingtian into Ye Laosi's arms, and with a push of his hands, he climbed over the barricades and entered the field.
But he was far away after all, and no matter how fast he ran, he could not be faster than the falling speed of the dish.
Instead, it was Miss Zhou, who had been avoiding Zhang Chuanlu, who first discovered something was wrong.
She rushed forward and without thinking, stretched out her hand to block and caught most of the soup that was splashed on the roast suckling pig.
"Ah—" Mrs. Ye belatedly realized and screamed, "Your food!"
Only then did Miss Zhou realize that she was still holding the freshly cooked dish in her hand. She had caught most of the dish and soup that Zhang Chuanlu spilled, but her own dish was completely ruined.
Mrs. Ye was so anxious that her voice changed. The competition time was almost over and it was too late to do it again.
Miss Zhou said with a look of relief: "Oh, it's okay. Actually, I don't know how to cook this dish at all. I learned it last night and made it today by imitating others. I was worried that the judges would dislike it when I served it!
"Hey, Madam You, stop talking to me. Is your roast suckling pig ready?"
Mrs. Ye quickly turned around and saw that the temperature was almost right. If she continued to roast it, it would be overcooked.
She quickly took the roast suckling pig off the rack and placed it on a plate that had been prepared long ago. Then she turned around and said, "Ms. Zhou, thank you so much!"
"Mrs. You, time is running out, you should go on stage quickly!" Miss Zhou was even helping to urge Mrs. Ye.
All this happened so suddenly and so quickly that everyone was stunned.
It was not until Mrs. Ye came up with the roast suckling pig that the officers thought of going forward to help Zhang Chuanlu, who had fallen flat on his face. The onlookers also burst into whispers of discussion.
"Could this person have done it on purpose just now?"
"I think so too. There was nothing on the ground that big. How could he suddenly fall down while walking just fine?"
"Just let it fall! How did the plate in my hand just happen to fly right onto the roast suckling pig?"
Zhang Chuanlu returned to his seat and felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
What kind of good luck did Mrs. Ye have that not only did Mr. Cen help her, but even the ordinary people around her were so on her side?
In fact, Zhang Chuanlu had misunderstood this point. Many of the people who came to watch did not even know Mrs. Ye.
The reason why they felt so sorry and thought there was something wrong with Zhang Chuanlu was mainly because the roast suckling pig was so delicious.
Roast suckling pig is different from other dishes in the pot. It is placed in front of everyone.
From white to yellow, the fragrance accumulates and adds layer by layer.
Everyone's expectations were naturally raised little by little.
It’s like watching a work of art slowly take shape, and when it’s finally about to make its stunning debut, someone suddenly wants to destroy it. Who can tolerate this?
Most people can't stand it anyway.
After thanking Miss Zhou profusely, Mrs. Ye finally brought up the roast suckling pig she had prepared.
Wan Ziqiu took a clean knife and cut the suckling pig open.
The crisp sound of the knife cutting the pig skin has attracted many people to imagine how delicious such crispy skin would taste in their mouths.
Once the pig skin is cut, the aroma of the meat inside can no longer be hidden and gushes out instantly like an explosion.
Everyone nearby couldn't help swallowing.
Wan Ziqiu had excellent knife skills and quickly cut the suckling pig into many evenly spaced small pieces, each with the skin and meat still attached.
He first gave the best seats to the judges at the table, then said to the waiter beside him, "Don't waste the rest. Bring it down for others to try. If there's any left, share it with everyone who came to watch the game."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers became excited instantly.
The people who were originally in good order immediately began to squeeze to the front.
Fortunately, today's competition was held in the county government office, so not many people were allowed in. In addition, barricades were used and the number of police officers was increased, so the chaos was quickly brought under control.
Several people who participated in the cooking competition have tasted the roast suckling pig made by Mrs. Ye. It can be said that even if they lose today, they will lose with conviction.
Even Qian Yunfei, who usually had no expression, showed a look of surprise and appreciation.
After taking a bite, Miss Zhou said excitedly, "Luckily I blocked it. It would have been such a shame if such delicious roast suckling pig had been ruined."
She said this unintentionally, but Zhang Chuanlu took it seriously, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
Lu Jinyu, who had not wanted women to participate in the competition before, showed a very complicated expression after tasting it.
After everyone who had participated in the competition had tasted the food, the head constable personally carried the plate to the front of the onlookers, with several officers guarding him. This was how the situation was controlled and no one started snatching the food.
The remaining half plate of roast suckling pig was quickly divided up.
Those who got a share were filled with joy, while those who didn’t could only look at them with envy.
These ordinary people, who rarely eat pork on weekdays, even heard of the roast suckling pig dish for the first time today, let alone eaten it.
Even if you raise pigs at home, you would not be willing to eat such young piglets. You would wait until they grow up and then kill them for meat.
The pork from the good areas is so hard to eat that they have to be sold for money.
