The Shit Carrier Village Girl

Chapter 150 Fragrant Goldfish Soup

Lin Yuelan did not reject Liu Qi's invitation. He said half-jokingly, “Young master Liu, I plan to eat for free. I'm not going to pay even if you invite me to a private room. You should know that eating in a private room is twice as expensive as eating in the main hall of this restaurant. I'm a poor person, so I can't afford it!”

When Liu Qi forbade Lin Jiayin from interacting with him, Lin Yuelan made the decision that her relationship with Liu Qi would be purely business. However, Liu Qi seemed to have considered many things and wanted to become his friend. But people often only have one chance!

Therefore, his relationship with Liu Qi would only be a mere business.

The Little Twelve were surprised to hear Lin Yuelan. ‘Is Miss Lin really planning to eat a free meal? Didn't he say that to scare the waiter?’

He really could not understand Miss Lin. He is at two extremes when it comes to money.

On the one hand, he loves money. When they first met, he tricked them into selling mushrooms for one tael of silver each, and a rabbit for three taels each. He obtained around four hundred taels of silver from them instantly. Of course, most of the money came from the general and First Lieutenant. Small fries like them have no money for it.

Plus, Little Twelve also understood that Miss Lin was very stingy. If he could get a discount, he would. If he could get something for free, it would make his days fun. This is a perfect example. Since the young master treated them to a meal, he accepted it easily. Miss Lin was the most bandit-like woman Little Twelve had ever met.

On the other hand, Miss Lin is very generous. For example, he took five of them and bought them a complete set of clothes and shoes.

When he found out Li Huaisheng's wife was sick, he gave Li Huaishuang a lot of money without even haggling.

Miss Lin's actions were incomprehensible.

Zhou Wencai, who was standing beside Liu Qi, found Lin Yuelan's words funny. He couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Wencai said with a smile, “Miss Lin, don't worry. This restaurant belongs to Liu's brother. He would be too embarrassed to take money from you. So, Miss Lin, you don't have to worry about the bill. This will be Brother Liu's treat. ”

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “Alright, then, thank you!”

Zhou Wencai's mouth gaped slightly in surprise.

This girl is a little shameless. A normal person would refuse because of politeness. However, he jumped on the free food easily. Doesn't he know that men don't like women who are too outspoken?

Of course, Zhou Wencai was just mocking in his heart. To be honest, if Lin Yuelan wasn't a curse, she might be interested in him. She won't be his wife, but she can be his concubine.

However, if Lin Yuelan knew what Zhou Wencai was thinking, she would ridicule him. As long as she was not interested, she would not take on the role of queen, let alone the concubine son of the county magistrate.

Lin Yuelan had no idea what Zhou Wencai was thinking.

The group climbed into a private room on the third floor. Previously, Liu Qi and Zhou Wencai were in an ordinary room on the second floor.

The third floor is reserved for distinguished guests. In addition to Liu Qi's private rooms, the other rooms were permanently booked by distinguished guests.

Lin Yuelan glanced at the layout of the restaurant and secretly admired the wisdom and shrewdness of the ancient people.

They know to categorize people based on customer ratings. The guests in the first-floor hall were ordinary guests, and the guests in the private rooms on the second floor were strong city individuals. Finally, only guests with great status and influence from major cities other than Ning An City would have rooms on the third floor.

Thanks to Liu Qi, Lin Yuelan managed to feel what it was like to be a third category person.

Once they entered the room, Liu Qi gestured and said politely, “Miss Lin, please sit down!”

Liu Qi would give Lin Yuelan a lot of face even if she took care of him in the first floor hall.

However, Liu Qi had invited him to a private room on the third floor. Maybe he really sincerely treated her as a friend. Or is he planning something else?

When the maid downstairs saw this scene, she was so frightened that her face turned pale.

Although he was usually arrogant, he still had some sense. He was really polite to guests who were really rich and powerful. However, he was very rude to the others. He would sometimes mock them. He had evicted many customers who had come to the city and decided to dine at the Yuelai Inn. They did not want this kind of treatment when they were eating.

This is the reason why the business of Yuelai Inn is declining.

However, the waiter had the support of the manager, so he was not afraid of anyone complaining. Liu Qi was also tricked.

However, the waiter had done the wrong thing that day. He was very rude to Lin Yuelan. He did not expect that this innocent and mediocre child was actually a friend of the young master.

Seeing Liu Qi so courteous and generous to Lin Yuelan, the maid was so frightened that she immediately asked for help from the manager.

Lin Yuelan was not interested in how Liu Qi would deal with the maids.

However, Lin Yuelan was a little speechless when she saw the dishes served.

This is because most of these dishes are fried or fried. There is no other variation. Also, there is a lack of seasoning for all dishes. The kitchen seems to lack the knowledge of using things like ginger and garlic.

‘So, is this the food served by the best restaurant in Ning An City?’ Lin Yuelan understood why Jiang Zhennan and the others were so willing to spend money to buy food from her when they first met. Their battle for food last time with the village chief and his grandmaster also made sense now.

Compared to its cuisine, this dish is practically tasteless.

For the past two months, Lin Yuelan had been cooking at home. He's never been to town. Therefore, he assumed that the food outside would not be much different from his own cooking. They may just miss out on some new material. However, the reality is that they couldn't be more different!

For example, a fish dish does not even have a piece of ginger in it. That's very suspicious. How can it taste good?

After the meal was served, they started eating.

However, when Liu Qi saw Lin Yuelan holding her chopsticks in midair and staring at the plate on the table in a daze, he thought that Lin Yuelan had never seen this delicious dish before, instead, and he immediately found it funny.

His smile was not meant to be insinuating. Actually, he's very proud. After all, his intention was for Lin Yuelan to clearly see the difference between Liu Jiayin and Lin Yuelan. Besides, it's also a test. He wanted to confirm once again whether Lin Yuelan was friends with his younger sister because of her status.

Liu Qi smiled and said, “Miss Lin, why don't you eat? This is the best dish in the restaurant.”

Lin Yuelan raised her head, and her clear and sharp eyes met Liu Qi's eyes. Means not clear.

He sighed softly and finally picked up his chopsticks to take the fried cabbage.

As soon as it entered his mouth, he could not help but frown. Cabbage is boiled with hot water and then fried with oil. It feels bland and a little greasy.

When Lin Yuelan stopped moving her chopsticks, Liu Qi thought she was afraid of that good food.

He immediately introduced another dish, “Miss Lin, please ask for this steamed fish. This is a typical Yuelai Inn dish. It is smooth and soft. Other restaurants can't make something like this.”

Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes in silence. The smell of the fish was very strong, and it was really a typical food of the Yuelai Inn? What the fuck?

How can this be called a special dish?

Since everyone was eating, the Little Twelve followed him. The Little Twelve were fascinated by Lin Yuelan's cooking. He considered the cuisine of everyone in this corner of the country the same.

Therefore, when he took out a piece of wild rabbit meat and put it in his mouth, his face wrinkled. He looked at Liu Qi doubtfully and asked, “Is this the best dish in your restaurant?”

Liu Qi was a little confused, but he still nodded and said, “ya, this red-boiled rabbit meat is the specialty of the chef. The rabbit meat is tender and chewy, and customers love it very much. ”

Liu Qi did not know the identity of the twelve little ones, but since he was following Lin Yuelan, he was still polite to her.

Then, Liu Qi's face darkened.

Twelve little ones said roughly, “Omong is empty. Is this your master's specialty? It can't be eaten. ”

Liu Qi's face was so dark that ink could drip from him. If not for his good upbringing, he might have immediately expelled him. He had bought them a meal but they were still very picky. Not only did he not thank her, but he even judged the master chef so harshly. That was equivalent to insulting the delicacy of the Yuelai Inn.

Liu Qi looked at the twelve little ones, who took out a piece of fish with his chopsticks. He gritted his teeth and asked, “If this rabbit is not tasty, who can make a better rabbit dish? Can you tell me?”

“Of course, the rabbit meat made by Miss Lin is the best. Actually, Miss Lin can also make very tasty vegetables. They lick fingers well, ”told twelve little words without hesitation.

When Lin Yuelan heard the twelve little ones, she wanted to run away and hide. He wondered if it was a mistake to bring the little twelve with him. He was supposed to be carrying a small six, known for his unwillingness.

As soon as Little Twelve said something, she would bring trouble to Lin Yuelan.

As he expected, Liu Qi and Zhou Wencai's eyes immediately lit up as they stared at Lin Yuelan in disbelief. Although they were slightly suspicious of the words of the twelve little ones, they believed that this child would never lie.

Liu Qi's eyes glowed. He was a businessman, and he always saw profits.

He first turned to the little twelve and asked politely, “Brother, how should I call you?”

Twelve small chewed fried chicken feet and replied, “You can call me twelve small.” That was how everyone had called him since he joined the army.

Liu Qi and Zhou Wencai were slightly surprised. What kind of name is that?

However, Liu Qi did not think too much about it. Instead, he asked curiously and interestedly, “ini .. Brother Twelve, you said that Miss Lin is very good at cooking. Is that true?”

“Of course. Miss Lin's cooking skills are amazing. ” Little Twelve explained as she chewed the chicken leg. “And Miss Lin's cooking is not only delicious, but most importantly also very appetizing to look at. For example, last night, we cooked a rabbit. Rabbit meat is red and has translucent skin. It feels really soft and smooth. The meat is fat but not greasy, thin but not dry. The smell goes right into the mouth. Compare it to your rabbit. Very pale and unappetizing. It is as chewy as eating dry wood. The meat has no texture at all.”

The more they listened to the description of the twelve small, the more Zhou Wencai and Liu Qi wanted to drool.

They had never heard of a rabbit dish that could have translucent skin. They really want to see it and taste it themselves.

Before Liu Qi could say anything, Zhou Wencai started to get impatient, “Nona Lin, the twelve little ones said that you are very good at cooking. It made brother Liu and I drool. Can you make some dishes for us and let us taste them?”

Then Liu Qi added, “Don't worry, miss Lin. Everything is in the kitchen. You can use it without worry!”

Lin Yuelan, “...” When does he agree? Why did they make a decision in his name?

Then, he thought about it. He had made an impromptu purchase from a clothing store. Plus, he had purchased many daily necessities and clothes to accommodate the arrival of Jiang Zhennan and his men. The money he earned from the tiger sale and the looting of Wang Bapi was almost exhausted.

Without money, he could no longer buy land, farm, or build houses. He had to find a way to earn more money.

He can't sell tigers anymore. There was only a tigress and Little White left in Mount Da Ao. He would not sell a tigress or Little White. Lin Yuelan also did not plan on going to another mountain to look for a tiger.

As for other animals, they are not as valuable as tigers. Of course, there were also some rare animals and rare plants on the mountain. However, this rare animal was smart enough to communicate with Little Green. Therefore, Lin Yuelan would not hunt them down. As for herbs, he planted them in his space.

So, the only way he could earn money was…

Lin Yuelan put down her chopsticks and said with a faint smile, “Young Master Liu, Young Master Zhou, I only know how to make ordinary home-cooked meals. If you like, I can make some. I hope you don't mind. ”

“Miss Lin, you are too polite and humble.” Zhou Wencao hurriedly spoke to Lin Yuelan in a flattering manner. “It is an honor for brother Liu and I to be able to taste Miss Lin's cooking. ”

Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes and was somewhat speechless to pretentious people like Zhou Wencai.

After which, Lin Yuelan was brought into the large kitchen by Liu Qi.

The chef and assistant chef were a little surprised by the arrival of their young master. What surprised them even more was that the young master seemed to be carrying a young woman with him.

After everyone greeted Liu Qi respectfully, they all stopped what they were doing. They did not know why the young master had brought such a woman into the kitchen.

Liu Qi pointed to the kitchen and told Lin Yuelan, “Miss Lin, this is what we have in the kitchen. See what kind of dishes you can make. I'll have them prepare the ingredients. ”

Lin Yuelan looked around the kitchen. It was quite spacious, and the ingredients were quite well organized.

Seeing there was a goldfish in the wooden bucket, he said, “I'll make a fish dish then!”

Hearing that Lin Yuelan was going to cook the fish, Liu Qi was a little surprised. Fish is notoriously difficult to cook. If not handled properly, the fish will not smell or taste wood.

The Yuelan Inn has steamed fish as their signature dish as they have a special technique for removing fishy odors. However, Liu Qi understood his smell could not be eliminated completely.

Fish is a tough challenge. Making fish dishes without a fishy smell is impossible.

After Liu Qi recovered from his shock, he reminded her gently and suggested kindly, “Miss Lin, I heard from little sister twelve that the boiled rabbit meat you made is delicious. Why don't you make that? After all, fish are not easy to handle. ”

Lin Yuelan shook her head and said with a smile, “Young master Liu, it's fine. I'll make fish dishes!” His tone was very firm.

Liu Qi was helpless. He can only follow her.

Master Yang, the head chef of the Yuelai Inn, was a little angry when he learned that Liu Qi had brought Lin Yuelan into the kitchen to cook. What's that shit? The kitchen of the Lin Yuelan Inn is a sacred place. Not everyone can enter it. What if the secret formula is stolen?

However, before master Yang could protest, he heard Lin Yuelan say that she wanted to prepare a fish dish. He doesn't believe.

Mr. Yang immediately said angrily, “Young master, this is the kitchen. Outsiders are not allowed here. You're interfering with our work by bringing this woman here. You should go with him. Everyone is busy here!”

Master Yang was the head chef at the Yuelai Inn. The business of Yuelai Inn has grown in recent years, and it has a lot to do with its cuisine. Even the young master, Liu Qi, had to be polite and respectful to him.

However, Mr. Yang has a bad temper. He gets angry even more when he cooks. He would scold that person no matter who they were.
