Fortunately, he was still standing there, and Fu Yuan stood next to him, trying his best to hold an umbrella for him.
Zhao Huanyu wanted to go there, but she knew that there were so many people now, and she couldn't blatantly show that she knew him, otherwise it would cause trouble for herself.
Coincidentally, Ji Mingxuan had no intention of acknowledging her.
Seeing everyone having a great time eating rabbit heads, the onlookers also wanted to join in the fun, and the crowd suddenly became confused.
Suddenly a woman came to him and stuffed himself a small note.
Zhao Huanyu subconsciously opened it and saw that it was Ji Mingxuan's calligraphy.
It says: I will go do some work first and come to see you in the evening.
Zhao Huanyu put away the small note, nodded to Ji Mingxuan, and Ji Mingxuan left.
Zhao Huanyu looked at Ji Mingxuan's leaving figure and couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart.
Once the plate of rabbit heads is finished, the outcome will be known.
Not only did the county magistrate and others unanimously come to this conclusion, but even the cooks from other families agreed.
Although they didn't get the complete rabbit head to eat, they still got some scraps. Just by tasting the taste, they knew they had lost.
The county magistrate said with appreciation: "Jiaxin's birthday banquet will be held in seven days by Chef Zhao!"
The title has changed from girl to chef, which is very realistic.
"Thank you sir for giving me this opportunity."
Zhao Huanyu agreed without humility. She traveled a long way here just for this matter.
The others were so convinced by the defeat that they looked at her differently.
There were also various restaurant owners who wanted to recruit people, but Duan Kuo blocked them.
The chef for the birthday banquet ordered Zhao Huanyu and gave him a hundred taels of silver notes as a reward. Zhao Huanyu happily accepted it and was ready to go back.
There was a lot of smell on her body from cooking, so she had to go back and wash it off.
"How did you come up with the idea of making rabbit heads? That's awesome! By the way, how did you find so many rabbit heads?"
Duan Kuo kept chattering like a bird. Zhao Huanyu found it funny and just said: "Okay, you are losing weight. You have eaten enough today. I will make it for you next time."
"That's not enough! As usual, give me the prescription and I'll give you the money!"
Zhao Huanyu shook his head: "These are all dishes for the county magistrate's daughter's birthday banquet. We can't let your restaurant get there first."
"Do you think I'm stupid? They must have started selling it later. I'll find someone to make one first and take it back to my dad!"
Duan Kuo opened his mouth and immediately pulled his father out of the way.
Zhao Huanyu rolled his eyes: "Then I'll give it to you after the birthday party is over. In Mr. Duan's case, it's best not to eat these things. His condition will get worse. If you are really doing it for your father's good, don't mention this in front of him.
"
Just as he was talking, Xue Ren came again.
"Chef Zhao, you really can't be judged by appearance! I didn't expect you to have such ability, I admire you!"
No matter how Xue Ren felt about Duan Kuo, at least he still praised Zhao Huanyu now. Zhao Huanyu smiled back and said, "Thank you very much."
"No prize. Chef Zhao's cooking skills are really amazing. Duan Kuo's place really hid his talent. Why don't you come to my restaurant? The conditions are whatever you want!"
Xue Ren spoke very grandly, raising his head very high, feeling that Zhao Huanyu would be reluctant to refuse such an offer.
Duan Kuo looked at him like a fool, just smiled and said nothing.
Zhao Huanyu smiled politely and said, "Thank you, Master Xue, for your kindness, but I am not a cook."
"What did you say?"
Xue Ren looked at her in disbelief, feeling that this woman was telling lies whenever she opened her mouth.
Zhao Huanyu said firmly: "I'm really not a cook. I just like to cook for my family, so Master Xue should find someone else."
"Why do you come to this competition if you're not a cook?"
"For the bonus of one hundred taels!"
Zhao Huanyu answered generously, yes, she was short of money!
"puff!"
Duan Kuo couldn't help but laugh out loud, and gave Zhao Huanyu a thumbs up in his heart, she deserves to be the one!
Xue Ren was unwilling to give in and said: "You will soon be short of money. It will be easier. If you come to my restaurant to be a cook, I will give you a monthly salary of ten taels of silver. How about it? It's very high, right?"
Zhao Huanyu shook her head sincerely: "Not high."
Xue Ren:......
Zhao Huanyu was anxious to go back and didn't want to say more to him, so she said, "Sorry, I'm going back first."
"Hey!"
Xue Ren watched her get into the car, turned around and waited for Duan Kuo dissatisfied, and asked: "Duan Kuo, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"
Since Duan Kuo said that this little girl was his sister, he would definitely not treat her badly.
Although the little girl was not well-dressed, she really didn't behave like someone who was short of money. Xue Ren didn't believe it anyway.
He felt that Duan Kuo must be doing something bad behind his back, and alarm bells rang in his heart.
"none of your business?"
Duan Kuo said this deliberately so that he could scare himself, and this idiot would stun him every time.
Duan Kuo and Zhao Huanyu got into a different carriage. When they got on, they specifically ordered the driver on Zhao Huanyu's side to ensure that Zhao Huanyu was sent there safely.
The driver agreed and then walked away like the wind, leaving Xue Ren alone and angry.
"Master, let's go back too, the sun is too strong."
The boy reminded him thoughtfully from behind and took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.
"screw you!"
Xue Ren pushed the boy away, kicked him, and left angrily.
On the other side, the county magistrate Qi Yuan had just returned to the county government office. When he entered the study room, he saw a man sitting at his desk with a guard standing next to him.
"You, you, you are..."
Qi Yuan somewhat recognized it, but was not sure. He just knelt on the ground with weak legs.
Fu Yuan took out the token and showed it to him, helped him up personally, and said, "Don't be afraid, Mr. Qi, my master just came to ask Mr. Qi for something."
"Wha, what?"
Qi Yuan stammered when he spoke and couldn't understand how his county government could attract such a great god.
"I heard that Lord Qi acquired a painting of hunting in autumn three years ago. My master liked it very much and wanted to buy the painting from Lord Qi."
Ji Mingxuan never spoke, Fu Yuan was the one who spoke.
At this time, Ji Mingxuan was looking through some books on Qi Yuan's table, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Qi Yuan thought it was something, but he came here just for such a painting, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's just a painting. If you want me to go to the official, you must give it to me with your own hands. How can I come to pick it up in person? It's just that the calligraphy and paintings collected by me will be placed in my hometown. I will send someone back to pick it up. Every time I come back, I will get three
Today, if you are not in a hurry, you can go back first, or you can send someone to take me to Beijing!"
Qi Yuan was sweating all the time, but tried his best not to stutter.
Ji Mingxuan slowly put down the book in his hand, and his voice made it difficult to guess his emotions: "I'm very urgent."
