In the harsh winter, the wind was strong and the snow was like wadding, several feet deep.
On the last day of the banquet competition, there was no need to vote. Bi Jiaban won the unanimous approval of all the guests with his honest reputation and superb cooking skills, and won the final victory with an absolute advantage.
After the lunch banquet, the guests were reluctant to leave. They gathered in small groups in front of the small red clay stove, some making tea and some hot wine. The atmosphere of the hot pot gathered the hearts of the guests.
It's so pleasant to chat and enjoy the snow.
Bi Jiaban thoughtfully sent a large pot of hot fennel beans for everyone to enjoy tea and wine.
Due to the complete withdrawal of Haoyuanlou, the dinner was still cooked by Bi Jiaban.
Bi Cheng and Yan Yan originally planned to wait for the noon banquet to end and then go home to see Mu Juaner in the afternoon, but they were busy until the banquet was over before they had time.
In the past two days, in order to prepare for the fight banquet, the Deng family father and son and all the young disciples from Dengjiazhuang almost worked without sleep. They stayed up late to learn cooking and worked overtime to prepare the ingredients. It was really hard work.
After finishing the evening banquet, everyone in Bijiaban returned to Dongkua Courtyard. Although everyone had a tired look on their faces, they were all extremely excited.
Actually won!
Really won!
They, a group of country chefs from Dengjiazhuang, worked hard with Chef Bi, and actually won the famous Haoyuanlou, the largest restaurant in Luwucheng.
Everyone in Dengjiazhuang, including the second uncle of the Deng family, Deng Jiang, Deng Hai and his son, felt that the three-day banquet competition was like a dream. They had never dared to think about such a thing before.
Even when they followed Bi Cheng into the Hao Mansion and heard that they were going to have a three-day banquet competition with Haoyuan Tower, they were not sure at all.
Deng Erdou ran to Deng Hai excitedly and asked quietly: "Brother, after we win Haoyuan Tower, will we be able to settle in Luwu City in the future? My mother is hoping that I can find a job in the city.
There’s work!”
Deng Hai rubbed Deng Erdou's head: "Of course, now we have become famous, and we will definitely be able to establish a foothold in Luwu City in the future!"
The second uncle of the Deng family turned around and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense to the children. Is it our ability to win the competition? That is the ability of Chef Bi and Miss Tang! We can follow them to see such a big world, it's all
Thanks to them, you must be humble and grateful!"
Deng Hai stuck out his tongue and chuckled: "Hey, of course I know this. I'm taking this opportunity to encourage these guys. I just won the big competition and everyone is very happy. It doesn't matter if you brag!"
Deng Jiang was steady and seldom talked or joked. Today he was particularly happy, so he agreed with Deng Hai and said with a smile: "Actually, what Ah Hai said makes sense. Although we can win Haoyuan Tower mainly because of Chef Bi and Miss Tang, we also
Even after this rare experience, my knowledge and skills will definitely be much better in the future than when I was a country cook, and I might be able to really stand up in Luwu City!"
The second uncle of the Deng family nodded: "The matter of the Hao Mansion is over. If Chef Bi still needs people, I sincerely hope you can stay and work with him. Chef Bi and Miss Tang Tang, regardless of their character or cooking skills,
That’s nothing to say, you will definitely have great potential in the future by following them!"
Everyone in Dengjiazhuang listened quietly to the words of the second uncle of Dengjia, and fell silent for a while.
The words of the second uncle of the Deng family touched the hearts of everyone present. They also liked Bi Cheng and Tang Tang very much. They were really reluctant to say goodbye to Miss Bi Cheng and Tang Tang after the banquet for thousands of people.
Everyone began to think silently...
Suddenly someone asked: "Eh? Where are Chef Bi and Miss Tang Tang?"
Everyone looked around after hearing the words, only to realize that they had not paid attention when they spoke just now and did not see where they went.
A young apprentice pointed to a large warehouse lit by candlelight: "There are people in the warehouse."
Everyone immediately went straight to the warehouse, opened the door, and smelled the strong aroma of wine. Looking again, they saw that a bright and warm copper pot stove had been set up on the big table.
Yan Yan is preparing hot pot dipping sauce.
Bi Cheng cut the meat slices himself.
Seeing everyone coming in, Yan Yan put down what she was doing, took out a small gong and started banging it: "Red envelopes are being given out! Red envelopes are being given out! Red envelopes are being given out!"
Everyone cheered and rushed over to grab the red envelope.
Yan Yanxiao watched the young disciples grabbing red envelopes happily, then walked over and handed three big red envelopes to the Deng family and his son respectively.
Deng Jiang was confused: "Don't we have to wait until we finish the banquet for a thousand people before we can get ICBC?"
Yan Yan smiled and said: "Everyone has worked hard these past few days and deserves a reward!"
Hearing this, the second uncle of the Deng family pushed the red envelope out: "We have ICBC to take it, how can we ask you two to spend more money? You should be doing these jobs, but we can't accept this money!"
Yan Yan smiled and said: "Don't worry, the wool comes from the sheep, you can just accept it with peace of mind!"
Bi Cheng was cutting meat slices in his hands, raised his head and smiled at everyone: "Second uncle, just accept it with peace of mind. Master made a lot of money for the wealthy family with those carts of river mussels!"
When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter.
Immediately, a young apprentice ran over to take over the work from Bi Cheng, and Yan Yan called everyone to sit down.
Deng Erdou pinched the heavy lump in the red envelope and couldn't help but ask Deng Jiang: "Can I see the money in this red envelope?"
Deng Jiang smiled and said: "This is what Miss Tang Tang rewards you, take a look."
The child excitedly poured out the hard lumps inside, and jumped up excitedly: "Gold! It's actually gold! This is the first time I've seen gold!" Then he started to bite...
When other young apprentices saw it, they also took out the red envelopes and looked at it... Everyone was shocked, shouting and jumping excitedly, like a group of little lunatics.
That's right, Yan Yan distributed all the more than one hundred taels of gold earned by Dahe Clam to everyone.
In this big competition, without the help of everyone in Dengjiazhuang, she and Bi Cheng alone would not be able to win Haoyuan Tower. Yan Yan and Bi Cheng are also very grateful to everyone in Dengjiazhuang.
If you win a great battle, of course you must divide your subordinates and reward the three armies!
Seeing the children laughing, Bi Cheng and Yan Yan toasted to the Deng family and his son.
Deng Hai laughed: "Given how smart Miss Tang Tang is, a dung beetle can turn her into a golden pimple!"
Everyone burst into laughter again.
The celebration banquet of Bijiaban started with laughter, laughter and wine.
Because Yan Yan and Bi Cheng missed Mu Juan'er and were afraid of the inconvenience of leaving the house too late, they only drank a few glasses of wine with everyone before setting off for home.
As soon as they walked out of the mansion, someone called Bi Cheng from behind.
The two of them turned around and saw Deng Wenming following them.
Yan Yan smiled and joked with him: "Don't you really want to taste the deliciousness of river mussels? Why don't you drink with your second uncle and the others?"
Deng Wenming shook his head and smiled: "There are a lot of mussels in the river. If you want to eat them, just fish them back."
This young man is much shyer than the others in the kitchen class. He usually talks little. But today he won the competition and he was extremely excited. He was not as reserved as usual.
Yan Yan felt that Deng Wenming's character should go to school. His personality and temperament were very suitable for studying, but growing medicine was also suitable for him.
The night wind was still fierce. Bi Cheng wrapped himself tightly in the thick cotton clothes. Seeing Deng Wenming shrinking his neck in coldness, he said: "It's such a cold day, you should go drinking with Deng Hai and the others. It will be in vain if you follow them out."
After Bi Cheng finished speaking, he glanced at Yan Yan quietly.
