Chapter 116: Reversal
[You know what, I'm a little worried about the villagers because I feel like her cooking skills are even worse than Lu Jinsen's.]
[Family members, please give Miss Qi some face. She at least participated in the cooking. Don't ignore her efforts just because she can't distinguish the seasonings.]
Qi Yan was not sure about the braised pork she made. She didn't even taste it before serving it on the table.
Watching the villager pick up a small piece of fat and lean pork belly, put it into his mouth without hesitation, chewing slowly, his brows slightly wrinkled, and his expression vaguely revealed a hint of subtle feeling.
Ting Jiu still had some sense of teamwork. He knew that it was the braised pork made by Qi Yan, so he couldn't help but get nervous.
After a while, the villagers gave their comments: "It has been stewed for too long, the meat has become soft, and the taste is still very salty."
At this point, the villager had already put down his chopsticks, then picked up the cup and took a sip of water before asking, "Is there no sugar in it?"
Because he didn't taste the sweetness of the braised pork at all, only the salty and bitter taste. It must be because there was too much sauce and salt, and the meat was completely flavored.
Qi Yan no longer remembered whether she had added sugar or not. She was doing it by herself at the time, and no one was there to remind her.
She thought she was pretty good at not losing her composure.
After listening to the person in front of them comment on the plate of braised pork without sugar, the others simply ignored it and did not try that dish.
The Liao sisters' stir-fried pork belly and diced pork with cucumber were both pretty average. The villagers didn't give them many comments, but they were mostly positive. Finally, they tried the handmade meatballs made by Meng Chuyuan.
[Although, she really lives in Bengbu, hahahahahahaha, she wouldn't put sugar in salt, right? I have evidence, she did that in the last episode]
[This is the first time I’ve seen a chef serve a dish without even tasting it first.]
[Look at it from another perspective: she is so comfortable, she doesn't care about anything, she does what she wants, and she cooks the food for you to eat or not.]
[Sister in front, I guess you are crazy, she has low emotional intelligence]
[It's obvious that Sister Meng won this round. Seeing how much light soy sauce she used in her braised pork, it's not surprising that it's salty.]
Finally, it’s my sister Meng’s turn. Even though I know the result, I’m still looking forward to it.
When Meng Chuyuan was making handmade meatballs, the ingredients were insufficient, resulting in a bit of a dry taste. However, after cooking them, she specially prepared a sauce to braise them, which was really delicious and suitable for eating with rice.
The braised taste alone makes people ignore the texture of the meatballs.
After tasting it, the villagers nodded to each other with satisfaction, thinking that the braised meatballs made by Meng Chuyuan were not only delicious, but also knew how to use taste to cover up the lack of ingredients.
When they tasted the pork belly stewed with potatoes made by Meng Chuyuan, it also received unanimous praise.
Especially the villagers who had just tasted Qi Yan's dish, they couldn't help but combine the two dishes: "The flavor of this meat is well grasped, much better than the previous one, the heat is well controlled, and the potato cubes are also fragrant and tasty."
Qi Yan's face turned green as she listened to the villager's contrasting comments.
[Big brother, you understand the concept of comparison, hahahahaha. There are so many delicious things. If you compare yourself with others, it will make you angry.]
[Villagers: This is what braised food tastes like]
[This looks delicious and goes well with rice, everyone!]
[Miss Qi Yan, I just want to ask you if you agree or not. One person saying it's not tasty might be lying, but it seems that except for that uncle, no one else ate it. This can't be said to be false, right? Hahaha]
[First screenshot of the emoji package, this face, this expression, the image is vivid, the face is green]
After tasting so many dishes, vegetable salad was served to the villagers to help them digest the food.
Each group made a plate of vegetable salad. There is nothing much to comment on this. The ingredients used by everyone are similar. The only difference is the presentation.
Among the ten villagers who tasted the food, there was a relatively young man who, after eating the salad made by Liao Jiayan, said with satisfaction, "This cucumber is cut so carefully. I guess it must have been made by a girl. I'm voting for this group first."
In this voting session, Meng Chuyuan's group finally received six votes, mainly because of the meatballs, which were made with great care, and it was not easy to mince the meat.
The Liao sisters received three votes from other villagers.
Just when Qi Yan felt that there was no hope and that she might get zero votes—
The uncle who had just eaten her braised pork actually cast his vote for Qi Yan.
After making his choice, the uncle also gave his reasons: "I think this dish must have been made by a newbie who can't cook. The taste of this braised pork is a little worse than the following dishes, but newbies also need encouragement. I hope they will keep working hard."
This villager is so nice!
[Useless brother, maybe our Miss Qi has a different way of thinking and may think you are pitying her.]
Every workplace should give newcomers a chance. Who among the experienced didn't start out as a newcomer? Right? That's how we achieve national prosperity and national rejuvenation.
[That makes sense, folks. After seeing this, I realized how narrow-minded I was and learned something.]
[Hehe, it turns out that my sister Meng has it all figured out. The young master who plays rotten has won again without any effort, haha]
Qi Yan didn't expect the final result to be like this.
Earlier, when the uncle who was voting was praising Meng Chuyuan, she had an unhappy look on her face.
Who knew there would be such a reversal.
Qi Yan was stunned on the spot.
She actually got a vote.
The director was very satisfied with the voting results. He knew that Meng Chuyuan would definitely win the competition.
When the director was about to come out and announce the punishment, he secretly gave Meng Chuyuan a wink.
Meng Chuyuan: “…”
The director clapped twice to draw everyone's attention to him. "Alright, now the losing group will receive their punishment."
[I'm curious about how Sister Meng will punish her? ]
[This is really hard for our Sister Meng. I really don't know if winning this competition is a good thing or a bad thing?]
[Sister in front, you are the truth, woo woo woo]
[Why would the director do something else but this? Is he trying to draw hatred from our sister Meng?]
Qi Yan raised her head and her eyes met Meng Chuyuan's.
The two looked at each other for a long time. In these brief seconds, no one could see through the other's thoughts.
Qi Yan seemed calm on the surface, but she was very nervous in her heart, thinking that Meng Chuyuan would make some excessive demands on her.
Seeing that Meng Chuyuan was slow to speak, the director became extremely anxious, fearing that something unexpected might happen to Meng Chuyuan.
