Chapter 55: Cooking Competition, Destroying the Bridge



Guo Jingyi and Cai Gui came to the kitchen of the state-owned hotel, and the hotel manager arranged the guests who were watching in the hall.

Some of the onlookers were not guests of the restaurant, but they also sat down and ordered one or two dishes. They wanted to be judges.

Wang Shuning put the things under the table and ordered a bowl of beef noodles.

In the kitchen, Cai Gui looked at Guo Jingyi and said, "Let's compete in three dishes. You can choose from any menu."

Guo Jingyi thought for a moment and said, "Then let's have braised short ribs, boiled chicken, and stir-fried pork liver with garlic."

Cai Gui's face was tense and veins popped out on his neck. These three dishes were the signature dishes on the menu of the state-owned restaurant. They were what he, the head chef, was best at. Yet Guo Jingyi chose these three dishes, which seemed to be a slap in his face.

He said coldly: "As long as you don't regret it, the ingredients are all in the kitchen, feel free to use them."

The restaurant manager opened the door curtain and walked in. "Pork ribs and chicken are not cheap. You can't sell them to others for your cooking competition. How do you calculate the cost?"

State-owned restaurants are run by the government, and both managers and chefs receive fixed salaries.

Cai Gui said: "Deduct it from my salary."

The restaurant manager looked at Cai Gui and sighed helplessly. It was not that he did not believe in Cai Gui's cooking skills, but he felt that as an experienced chef, he had to compete with a young girl. It was a waste of time and money.

Wang Shuning finished her beef noodles and left. She had no intention of eating the dishes that Cai Gui and Guo Jingyi prepared.

She had eaten at the county's state-owned restaurant three times, and Wang Shuning knew the quality of the food. She knew the chef was no match for Guo Jingyi.

After Song Wenyi moved all his things back home, he immediately went out to Zhang Minsheng's house.

"Brother Zhang, I have some things at home that are exactly the same as the last two times, and the quantity is twice as much as before. When do you think we can go over to order the goods? It's Chinese New Year now, how much do you want to pay?"

Zhang Minsheng had a faint smile in his eyes, and the arc of his mouth was not as high as before, "Wen Yi, please introduce me to such a stable source of goods someday."

Song Wenyi's expression froze for a moment before he smiled, "Brother Zhang, these few things I have are not enough to fill your teeth. If the things don't sell well during the New Year, I will find someone else to take over."

The things sold by Wang Shuning were very easy to sell. Song Wenyi sold them to Zhang Minsheng several times in a row because the other party was generous enough and could buy all of his goods at once, making money quickly and without any trouble.

But if the other party dares to cross the river and destroy the bridge to take his source of goods, Song Wenyi will never compromise.

Zhang Minsheng smiled and said in a much lighter tone, "Yes, of course I will. I'll pay the same price as last time."

After the two of them settled the bill, Zhang Minsheng took people to Song Wen's house to pick up the goods.

After all the things were taken away, Song Wenyi immediately closed the door, shocking the cheerful Song Qian, "Why do you close the door in broad daylight?"

Song Wenyi bolted the door and turned to look at his mother. There was a hint of worry in his eyes. "When I went to see Zhang Minsheng today, he asked to see Miss Hei."

Song Qian: "What's there to worry about? She's not someone to be ashamed of."

Song Wen scratched his head and walked into the room, then sat by the window with a frown on his face. "Zhang Minsheng wants to get rid of me and directly get involved with the black girl. When the time comes, the two of them will trade directly, and I won't have anything to do with it."

Song Qian stared, "Then we won't be able to make any money!"

Song Wenyi nodded solemnly, "I didn't agree to it, but I guess he won't give up. Did the black girl say when she will come next time?"

Song Qian tightly grasped the money in her hand, feeling that she would lose it in the next second. "No, she has always been like this. There is no fixed trading time. She can only wait in the black market in the north of the city."

"Mom, don't go to the north of the city in the next few days. The black girl we just traded with won't be here soon. In two days, when you think the time is right, disguise yourself and sneak over. Don't let anyone find you. If you run into her, tell her you want to meet her at a different place next time."

Whether it was a transaction with Song Wenyi or with Zhang Minsheng, it had no impact on Wang Shuning. The one who was affected was Song Wenyi, who was unwilling to have such a good source of income cut off.

Qi Jianping and Ge Nie had just got off work from the factory when they saw Wang Shuning passing by on a bicycle on the road.

Ge Nie immediately patted Qi Jianping on the shoulder and said, "Look, it's that girl again. My cousin got married a few days ago, and I saw her when I went to help. We didn't talk for a while before she left after the banquet. Later I asked my new cousin's wife, and it turns out her name is Wang Shuning. She went to work in Dafeng Village. How come you didn't recognize her when you sent someone through Yihe Town last time?"

Qi Jianping glanced over and said, "It was too dark so I didn't recognize him. Why are you asking so many questions?"

Ge Nie's eyes rolled around, "We've met again and again, which shows that we are destined to be together. I think I have a chance."

Qi Jianping rolled up his eyelids. "You'd better give up. We've run into her twice, and she looked at us like we were idiots."

Ge Nieyou was shocked and said, "That's because the timing of our first and second meetings was wrong. It's all your fault. The first time you pinned her to the ground, and the second time you knocked her and her car to the ground. How could she be nice to us?"

"She knows very well that you were cheated of your money and sex. Why do you pursue her?" Qi Jianping shook his head. This girl is not a white flower. She has strong psychological defenses. Ge Nie is a stubborn person. He will definitely not be able to catch up with her.

Ge Nie lowered his head. It was too shameful to be cheated of money and sex by a woman. He didn't want to let anyone know, even though Xiao Hong was already in jail.

After ten days, He Weiyuan finally built his new house. He couldn't wait to move in. He really wanted to show off to Zhao Leyi that she was a conscientious person, but Zhao Leyi was not in the village.

So he took advantage of Wang Shuning coming back from washing clothes in the river to stop him halfway, pointed in the direction of his new house and boasted: "The new house is great to live in, it's very spacious."

Wang Shuning didn't want to pay attention to this idiot. What was he so proud of?

He was lazy to begin with, and now he has offended his promising elder brother, causing his parents to become cold towards him. Does he want to live the rest of his life on the little money he gets from the family division?

You don't even want to eat? Just go beg for food.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, He Weiyuan thought she was jealous. "You have such a bad temper and no one wants you. If you are willing to marry me and give me two children, I don't mind letting you live in my house."

Wang Shuning was speechless. She felt that He Weiyuan was too self-righteous and didn't know where he stood. "I don't like anything about you. You are ugly, lazy, and stupid as a pig. Any girl who marries you will be unlucky for the rest of her life. Get out of here as far as you can and don't hang around in front of me."

He Weiyuan was shocked and stepped forward to grab the bucket that Wang Shuning was using to store clothes. "A woman like you who spends money lavishly will ruin the family sooner or later. I am willing to take you in because I am giving you face. Don't be shameless."

Wang Shuning pulled the bucket back, but the other party pulled it too hard, and the cleanly washed clothes fell to the ground, covered with mud and sand, and became dirty.
