When Liu Yuchu returns to his original position with his basket, Xia Yi is ready to cut vegetables.

He couldn't help looking at Xia Yi more.

Xia Yi doesn't seem to be in a hurry. The knife is steady and accurate. The cut tofu pieces are square and even. They look good together.

The vision moves to the face of summer meaning again, still is that kind of light facial expression, even eyebrow all didn't wrinkle.

Having experienced the first two competitions, Liu Yuchu has to admit that Xia Yi really has the strength.

But it's just a few pieces of tofu. Chef Liu really doesn't believe Xia Yi can make any delicious food.

He is going to see what Xia Yi is going to do with tofu, but he sees that Xia Yi suddenly stops and turns his head to look at him.

Liu Yuchu was guilty, breathing suddenly, and turned around in a panic, to sort out his case.

It took a long time for Liu Yuchu to react that he was just a little girl. Why would he be afraid?

Liu Yuchu is restless in the normal competition. For a moment, his mind is just like Xia Yi's magic words. Don't be nervous. For a moment, he wants to go to Xia Yi's direction to see what Xia Yi is cooking. No matter how hard he tries, he just can't make up his mind to prepare his own competition dishes.

But Xia Yi is not affected at all.

After everything is ready, boil oil and cook bean curd. After carving, cross knife, stuffed with meat stuffing, then stir fry in the pan, pour in the sauce seasoned before the stew, and simmer for a while, then you can start the pot.

A delicious tofu with full soup is ready.

Another dish prepared by Xiayi is prawn.

When preparing the gap between tofu and meat, Xiayi has already treated the prawns in advance. After going to the prawn line, Xiayi will cut the prawns from the middle and divide them into two parts. They are cooked in different cooking methods and used for two meals.

The prawn tail is cut open and covered with minced pork, shrimp, horseshoe, half cooked quail egg, and then covered with minced meat. After deep frying, the prawn tail turns up, and the part wrapped with minced meat is round, like the belly of arhat.

Half of the body that I didn't use just now is made into stewed shrimp.

The two dishes of fermented meat with bean curd and Luohan prawns are all finished. Xia Yi looks around, and the rest of the people are still busy with their work.

No accident, she should be the first to finish the dishes.

Xia Yi takes the lead in raising her hand, and immediately a little eunuch comes to carry the plate.

Everyone has been smelling the aroma of the food for a long time, and has been greedy for a long time. When the first dish is served, many people don't just taste it. Instead, they eat several mouthfuls in a row, and then they are satisfied to put down their chopsticks and write down their scores.

After that, the rest of the cooks finished their dishes one after another.

They didn't expect to start scoring on the spot, and the score will be publicized for each dish.

At the moment, ten people have finished the dishes, but none of them can surpass Xia Yi.

Score direct publicity, so that after the completion of the cook feel more nervous.

Liu Yuchu is more worried. The pasta he is good at is a waste of time. In such a competition, he spent a lot of time on the front modeling.

At the moment, his pastry modeling has not been finished.

Liu Yuchu's fingers couldn't stop trembling, and the action became more and more slow.

He stretched out his arm to wipe the sweat that had already flowed to the forehead, and took advantage of this gap to secretly glance at Xia Yi on one side.

Xia Yi has finished at this time, the stove has been put out, and the whole person stands in front of the stove in boredom.

As if aware of Liu Yuchu's eyes in general, Xia Yi suddenly turned around, the corner of her lips also with a smile that seems to have if not.

His mouth moved, as if to say something.

Liu Yuchu looked carefully and felt that Xia Yi's mouth shape seemed to be saying: "don't be nervous."

As soon as he shook his hand, a snack he had just made fell to the ground with a "patter".

Seeing the dishes of the cooks being taken away one by one, Liu Yuchu was the only one left in a short time.

For fear that Liu Yuchu didn't know, the eunuch came to urge him.

"You're the only one left. Hurry up. It's half a quarter of an hour away. If you can't do it again, you can give up on your own initiative."

Liu Yu kitchen flurried: "OK, OK, right away!"

Then he quickly fished out the fried snacks from the oil pan, and even had no time to make the dish.

The finished product is far worse than usual. The fire is not as good as usual. The setting of dishes is worse than the cooks who cook for the maids and eunuchs in the palace.

Many people give the lowest score without tasting it.

Even if I tasted it, I also gave a lowest score.

As a result, Liu Yuchu also set a record, the lowest score in all previous years.

Because of the disorder of the competition, Liu Yuchu was demoted and lost the right to cook for the emperor. He was directly transferred to cook for the servant girl eunuch.

He managed to climb up step by step. Because of this competition, he was directly beaten back to his original shape, and there was no chance to turn over.

With the result of this time, he is not qualified to participate in the meal competition. The imperial dining room is afraid to make the owners angry and can't take the responsibility.

Of course, these are later words. The most important thing at the moment is the result of the meal competition.

Xia Yi got the highest score on the spot, followed by Zhu Yuchu. Master Tang and Shi Guicai both got an intermediate score, and they were very satisfied with each other.

Especially master Tang, when he knew there was a promotion match, he never thought he would be promoted.

On the way back to the imperial dining room, everyone congratulated Xia Yi one after another. Even the people who secretly looked down on Xia Yi before also changed their views on her.

If once is luck, twice is luck, but more times is strength. Moreover, Xia Yi's luck is not so good. Her main course is tofu, which is the most difficult topic to score. Xia Yi can still turn the situation around and get the highest score.

Moreover, the way of the final match this time could not do any harm at all. The emperor watched in front of him and scored the officials and their families.

No matter how capable Xia Yi is, he can't bribe the officials and their families of Manchu Dynasty.

Before he reached the imperial dining room, a eunuch came after him.

"Miss Xia Yi, stay."

Xia Yi stopped, "father-in-law, what's the matter?"

She recognized that the eunuch was just one of the eunuchs waiting on the emperor's side.

The eunuch said, "Miss Xia Yi, the emperor asks you to come over."

"Me?" Xia Yi twisted her eyebrows a little and asked, it's not easy to finish the match. Finally, it's time to get out of the palace. It's not necessarily a good thing for the emperor to summon him now.

Xia Yi has never heard that the first name of the meal competition will be summoned by the emperor. Even the imperial chefs have heard about it for the first time.

"Yes, the emperor is very satisfied with the two dishes made by the girl. He specially sent the servants to invite them. I think it's a good thing." The eunuch said, "girl, come with me. Don't let the emperor wait."

Xia Yi took a deep breath and said, "OK, my father-in-law, wait for me."

Then Xia Yi asks Zhu Yuchu to go to Tangyuan and let him tell Xiao Anzi where she is.

After everything was explained properly, Xia Yi followed the eunuch.
