Chapter 67 Ye Linghuai is a jinx
Some of the noble ladies who came to Yipinlou today just wanted to show their support and curry favor with the Shen and Zhou families and Princess Yian.
Some came simply to join in the fun, while others wanted to see what was so special about this place and why it was awarded a plaque personally by His Majesty.
Since we're here now, and the items on the menu look pretty exquisite, why not order some to try?
When the waiter brought tray after tray of steaming dim sum to the table, everyone, with their own thoughts, were all stunned.
The dumpling skin of the crystal shrimp dumplings looks delicate and translucent, really as transparent as crystal.
Take a light bite, the outer skin is soft, glutinous, thin and tough, the shrimp inside is smooth and chewy, the taste is extremely fresh and tender, and every chew is endlessly memorable.
The custard buns are soft and have a strong milky flavor.
The golden lava bun is just as its name suggests. With a light bite, the golden filling inside will overflow like lava sand, with a crunchy texture.
Put it in your mouth and chew it carefully, and you will immediately smell the sweet fragrance and a light milky aroma.
The surface of rice noodle rolls is smooth, with thin skin and lots of fillings.
Paired with different fillings and sauces, it presents a variety of flavors and characteristics.
Even the pork belly and chicken feet that were disliked at first turned out to be unexpectedly delicious, not to mention the exquisite and delicious pastries.
Even the lady who had been accustomed to eating little since childhood couldn't help but eat up all the food she ordered, mouthful after mouthful.
The ladies in one of the private rooms tried all the snacks on the table, but still felt unsatisfied and forgot the purpose of their visit.
As they drank their tea, they felt that the experience they had just had was somewhat unreal.
Are there really such delicious foods in the world?
Oh my God, what did they eat before?
Why didn’t they find those bland foods unpalatable before, and why did they continue to eat them for so many years?
Just when everyone began to doubt their lives, someone suddenly spoke up, “I heard that all these foods were made by Shen Huazheng.”
As soon as these words were spoken, someone immediately refuted them.
"That's impossible. How could she make enough food for the entire restaurant?"
“Of course, it’s impossible that she made all of them herself, but these dishes were all figured out by Shen Huazheng herself, and she just taught the cooking methods to the cooks.”
"I've heard that too. It is said that Chen Huazheng likes to think about food on weekdays. Even Princess An and Princess Yi'an praised her for her cleverness and dexterity."
“Lianxiangzhai’s signature egg yolk pastry is also made by Shen Huazheng, and it’s incredibly delicious.”
"Really? I've also tried Lianxiangzhai's egg yolk pastry, it was so delicious that I wanted to swallow it with my tongue."
“If Shen Huazheng figured all of this out, then she is indeed quite amazing.”
"Since Princess Yi'an and Princess An have tasted Shen Huazheng's cooking and praised her highly. Could it be that even His Majesty has tasted the food she cooked and thought it was delicious, so he bestowed the plaque?"
"You know what, this is really possible!"
Some of the other noble ladies in the private rooms always focused on eating.
"It's so delicious. I like every one of these snacks."
"To be honest, the food here is much better than other restaurants. I have never eaten such novel and delicious food before."
"Why don't we pack up some of what we ordered and take it back with us?"
"I heard from the waiter that only morning tea is served during this time period, and the menu is different from other times. I wonder what food will be served during noon and evening hours?"
"Then there must be food that we haven't tasted yet?"
"The morning tea is so rich and delicious, and the lunch and dinner will definitely be even better. Why don't we have lunch here before going back."
"Okay, then we'll send someone back home to tell them."
Some noble ladies didn't know how to change the topic from morning tea at Yipinlou to the imperial plaque, and finally to Ye Linghuai -
"Shen Si's life is actually quite good. Although she used to have the mind of a five-year-old child, she was the apple of the Shen family's eye. Now that she has recovered her mind, she has started a food business and has been awarded a plaque by His Majesty himself. Her Lianxiangzhai is doing very well, and Yipinlou is becoming famous. I'm afraid that there won't be many restaurants in Beijing that can compare with it in the future."
"If you ask me, it wasn't a bad thing for Shen Si to fall into the water that time. At least he knew the true character of the people around him. It's better for her to break off the engagement with Ye Linghuai now than to find out that her husband is having an affair with another woman after she gets married."
"That's right, the one from the Ye family might be the star of disaster. Without him, Shen Si would be in a good situation."
"Now that you put it that way, it seems to be true. It is indeed a bit weird."
Everyone present thought that this made sense. Ye Linghuai had abandoned Chen Huazheng and chosen Wang Muxue, but Chen Huazheng had recovered his mind and now was running a food business, and had even been given a plaque by His Majesty.
It was the Ye family, who missed out on Chen Huazheng, who was about to suffer a series of bad luck.
Maybe all the misfortunes that Shen Huazheng encountered in the past were caused by Ye Linghuai!
It is better to believe that such things exist than to believe that they do not exist.
All the noble ladies secretly made up their minds that they must stay away from the Ye family, especially Ye Linghuai.
He is very likely a jinx.
It’s better to avoid some of them.
