It is not that difficult to make vegetarian dishes taste like meat. The key difficulty lies in blending the flavors well so that they are not overpowered by Chen Wei's high-end ingredients.
This will test Feng Yifan's seasoning ability and also require him to do the styling well.
The taste and shape need to attract children.
Only in this way can we suppress the attraction of Chen Wei's high-end ingredients.
Of course, Feng Yifan is not planning to make the dish completely vegetarian. He also wants to add some meat to bring a complex taste, so that the dish will taste better overall.
After listening to Shi Jiahui's explanation, Lu Cuiling didn't quite understand it, so she just summarized it in one sentence.
"To put it bluntly, it still depends on who cooks better. The key to a cooking competition is to see whose food tastes better. Anyway, as long as the children like it, that's fine."
Hearing what Lu Cuiling said, Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "Auntie Ling is right, it has to taste good."
Shi Jinbin added: "You also need to pay attention to the color, fragrance and shape, because our Su Ji's uncle will judge it, so you can't be careless in front of him."
Shi Jiahui took over the conversation: "If it really doesn't work, I'll go help my junior brother."
Shi Jinbin said with a straight face: "Nonsense, can you just go and help me?"
Shi Jiahui didn't care about his father's stern face at all. Instead, he continued, "Dad, why can't I help? I am also the successor of Su Ji."
Shi Jinbin was stunned for a moment, but he still said seriously: "It's not that simple. This competition may seem like a joke, but it concerns the orthodoxy of Su Ji's inheritance. You are not qualified to help. If you really want to help, then I can be the only one."
These words stunned everyone present.
Shi Jiahui even exclaimed: "Dad, do you want to come out?"
Su Jinrong was also a little excited, and reached out to hold his brother's hand: "Brother Shitou, you..."
Shi Jinbin patted the back of Su Jinrong's hand and comforted him, "Jinrong, don't think too much about it. This matter is originally a matter of our generation. If you are in good health, I will help you."
At this point, Shi Jinbin sighed helplessly: "But your health is not good now, so I will be the only one to help Yifan."
After listening to Shi Jinbin's words, everyone present quickly understood his intention.
This competition spanning two generations was, to put it bluntly, a feud between the previous generations, and it should have ended with the previous generation.
But Su Jinrong is in poor health now, so Feng Yifan has to be the representative.
As Su Jinrong's representative, Feng Yifan is also the current chef of Su Ji.
Then, as Shi Jinbin was once a disciple of Su Ji, he could naturally lower his status and help Feng Yifan.
Shi Jinbin said seriously: "I think if I can help Yifan, Su Lanxin and Chen Wei can't say anything."
Shi Jiahui was still a little worried: "Dad, how is your health?"
Shi Jinbin glared at his daughter: "What's the matter? It's only been a short time since we last met. Are you already looking down on your dad?"
Shi Jiahui saw his father's glare and was full of momentum, so he could only say, "Okay, then you go ahead, Dad. You're just helping out anyway, so it won't be tiring."
Shi Jinbin was even more unhappy when he heard this: "Hey, girl, you really look down on your dad, don't you? This afternoon, watch your dad personally make you a bowl of noodles with toppings."
The topic immediately turned to the toppings, and Shi Jiahui immediately said, "Okay, I want the eel shreds topping, fried eel shreds."
Shi Jinbin agreed: "Okay, I'll make it for you at noon today."
Seeing the appearance of this father and daughter, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Cuiling asked with a smile: "Do you think that Yifan and Ruoruo will become a father and daughter like the uncle and the sister in the future?"
After hearing what Lu Cuiling said, Su Ruoxi could vaguely imagine what her daughter and husband would look like in the future.
"Hahaha..." Su Ruoxi couldn't help laughing out loud, "Mom, what you said is really vivid. I can almost see what the father and daughter will look like in the future."
After hearing what Lu Cuiling said, everyone really thought about what the future would be like.
Feng Ruoruo, who has entered her rebellious period, and Feng Yifan, who has entered old age, are just like Shi Jinbin and Shi Jiahui now, one is glaring and the other is refusing to give in.
But everyone can imagine that in the end Feng Yifan will definitely give in to his daughter.
When everyone was laughing, a small figure rushed in from outside the restaurant and went straight to Su Ruoxi's side.
"Aunt Su, where is Ruoruo?"
Su Ruoxi took a look and saw that the child who came in was none other than Yang Xiaoxi.
Look again, Yang Zhiyi came in with Yang Xiaoxi.
Su Ruoxi hugged Yang Xiaoxi and said, "Xixi, you came a little late today. It's almost time for lunch. Didn't your father let you have breakfast this morning?"
Yang Xiaoxi quickly replied: "No, Dad cooked noodles for Xixi this morning."
Su Ruoxi asked again: "Is there anything else?"
Yang Xiaoxi added: "And the spareribs that dad made can be eaten with the noodles."
After listening to this, Su Ruoxi looked at Yang Zhiyi and said, "Not bad? Father Yang did a great job today."
Hearing this, Yang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Not bad. We can't always let our Xixi eat worse than your Ruoruo. We just happened to have some spare ribs, so we gave them to Xixi."
Yang Xiaoxi pulled Su Ruoxi's arm again and asked, "Aunt Su, where is Ruoruo?"
Su Ruoxi stood up, pulled Yang Xiaoxi and said, "Let's go, Auntie will take you to find Ruoruo. Ruoruo is in the kitchen now, chatting with her father."
Yang Xiaoxi held Aunt Su's hand and walked towards the kitchen, saying, "Is Ruoruo chatting with Father Feng again? Ruoruo really likes talking to Father Feng."
Su Ruoxi responded with a smile: "That's right, Ruoruo is a little nagging girl, she always likes to nag endlessly."
When Yang Xiaoxi heard Aunt Su say this, she couldn't help but laugh.
After laughing, the little girl still said, "Aunt Su, Ruoruo is not a nagging little girl. Ruoruo can say a lot of things, many very interesting things."
Su Ruoxi then asked: "Does Xixi like to listen to Ruoruo talk?"
Yang Xiaoxi also nodded: "I like it. It's fun to talk to Ruoruo."
Su Ruoxi nodded: "Well, Xixi is indeed Ruoruo's good friend. She likes to talk with Ruoruo, so your relationship must be the best among the children in the kindergarten."
Yang Xiaoxi said with a smile: "Ruoruo, Feifei and I have the best relationship."
Looking at Su Ruoxi and Yang Xiaoxi, one big and one small, walking towards the kitchen while chatting, everyone in the restaurant had smiles on their faces.
When Su Ruoxi led Yang Xiaoxi into the kitchen, she immediately heard Feng Ruoruo chatting with her father.
Hearing her daughter's chatterbox voice, Su Ruoxi couldn't help but smile.
Although she always said that her daughter was a nagging little girl who couldn't stop talking, Su Ruoxi actually liked listening to her daughter nagging like that.
Because such a daughter is very cute, she is not as sensible as before, but lacks innocence.
When Yang Xiaoxi heard Feng Ruoruo's voice, she quickly shouted inside: "Ruoruo, I'm here."
Feng Ruoruo, who was talking to her father, heard her good friend's voice and immediately looked towards the door.
Seeing her mother bringing Yang Xiaoxi in, Feng Ruoruo immediately danced with joy: "Xixi, you're here, come quickly, dad and I are chatting."
Yang Xiaoxi ran over quickly.
Su Ruoxi looked at her husband busy in the kitchen while chatting with their daughter, and couldn't help but feel a little bit sorry for her husband.
Yang Xiaoxi ran to her good friend and saw her sitting on the cooking table and asked, "Ruoruo, how did you get up there?"
Feng Yifan reached out, picked up the little girl, and placed her next to his daughter.
"Ruoruo got here like this."
Yang Xiaoxi came back to her senses and said cheerfully, "So it was Father Feng who brought the baby up here."
Feng Ruoruo hugged Yang Xiaoxi and said, "Xixi, sit here with me and watch daddy cook. Then we can chat with daddy."
Yang Xiaoxi naturally agreed: "Okay, let's sit here together."
Su Ruoxi was standing not far away, and was a little dazed when she saw this scene.
It was only when her husband reached out and snapped his fingers in front of her that Su Ruoxi was finally woken up.
Feng Yifan saw his wife come back to her senses and asked with a smile, "Our big friend Su Ruoxi, do you want to sit on it with the two little friends?"
Su Ruoxi came back to her senses, and when she heard her husband's words, her face immediately turned red with shame, and she said coquettishly, "Go to hell."
But when Feng Ruoruo heard what her father said, she waved her hands and called out, "Mom, Mom, come here too. Sit here with us so you can see Dad cooking."
Yang Xiaoxi also smiled and said, "Yes, Aunt Su, come and sit here too."
When Feng Yifan heard what the two little girls said, he gave his wife a smug smile.
When Su Ruoxi saw this scene, she had an urge to bite her husband twice.
However, although she did not sit at the cooking table in the end, Su Ruoxi still stood beside the two little girls at their call.
Seeing her mother standing over, Feng Ruoruo immediately reached out and hugged her mother.
"Mother."
Su Ruoxi saw her daughter hugging her and couldn't help but smile and said, "You little thing, look, Xixi is still here, aren't you ashamed of doing this?"
Feng Ruoruo immediately pulled her mother towards her good friend and said, "Xixi, come and hug my mother too."
After hearing what her daughter said, Su Ruoxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Yang Xiaoxi actually reached out and hugged her together with Feng Ruoruo.
Su Ruoxi asked helplessly: "Okay, my two little darlings, why are you hugging me like this?"
Feng Ruoruo continued, "Mom, Dad has agreed to buy Ruoruo a house across the street from us and let Ruoruo go to your school."
Su Ruoxi was stunned when she heard her daughter's words, and then looked at her husband who was still busy.
After hearing what her good friend said, Yang Xiaoxi asked curiously, "Ruoruo, doesn't your family already have a house? Why do you want to buy one?"
Feng Ruoruo explained to her good friend: "Because I want to go to my mother's old school, I have to live across the street from us, otherwise I can't go to my mother's old school."
Yang Xiaoxi thought for a moment and asked, "Do I have to go to elementary school?"
Feng Ruoruo nodded: "Yes, yes, we are going to primary school. We are going to my mother's primary school. Xixi, you should come with us, and Feifei should come with us too."
Yang Xiaoxi naturally agreed: "Okay, I will go to Ruoruo's mother's school too."
Su Ruoxi didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two little girls. She just stood there and stared at her husband for a while. Then she asked, "Do you have money to buy the house over there? But it's 12,000."
Feng Yifan looked up at his wife and replied with a smile: "Why do you think your husband can't even afford a house? Don't worry, I won't let my parents pay for it."
Su Ruoxi thought for a moment and said, "But actually, I didn't want Ruoruo to go there."
Hearing this, Feng Yifan asked his daughter directly: "Does Ruoruo want to go to school there?"
Feng Ruoruo answered naturally: "Yes, yes."
Feng Yifan looked at his wife again: "Look, if Ruoruo wants it, then I have to satisfy Ruoruo."
Su Ruoxi continued, "But what if Xixi and Feifei can't go to that elementary school? Do we still have to let the two families buy a house?"
When Feng Yifan heard what his wife said, he smiled and said, "How do you know that Xixi and Feifei can't go up?"
Without waiting for his wife to speak, Feng Yifan said directly: "As far as I know, Feifei's family lives in that elementary school district. As for Xixi? You can ask her father."
Yang Xiaoxi immediately said, "Okay, let's go ask Dad. My dad is outside."
Having said that, Yang Xiaoxi couldn't wait to get down from the kitchen counter and go outside to ask her father.
Feng Yifan carried the two girls down and asked them to follow his wife out to ask: "Okay, go with Ruoruo's mother and ask Xixi's father."
Su Ruoxi was stunned at first, but then she thought that her husband could just stay in the kitchen and prepare the ingredients by himself, so she took the two little girls out.
Before leaving, Feng Ruoruo blew a kiss to her father: "Come on, Dad."
Feng Yifan caught his daughter's flying kiss, pressed it to his chest and said, "Okay, thank you baby."
After Su Ruoxi pulled the two girls out, she naturally asked Yang Zhiyi directly whether Yang Xiaoxi could go to the No. 5 Primary School across the old street
Yang Zhiyi was very frank: "Of course, Xixi and her mother's household registration will remain here. There is a house here that was left by Xixi's grandfather."
It turned out that Li Feier's parents had passed away and left her a house, which happened to be in a community further east than the old street and was also adjacent to the city's No. 5 Primary School.
After Li Fei'er and Yang Zhiyi got married, the owner of the house they live in now is Xixi's grandmother, so Li Fei'er and Yang Xiaoxi did not move there.
Feng Ruoruo and Yang Xiaoxi didn't know much, they just knew they could go to elementary school together and in the same school. The two little girls were very happy and cheered together.
Yang Zhiyi asked Su Ruoxi in surprise: "Are you planning to buy a house in the community across the street? Will it be convenient for Ruoxi to go to school in the future?"
Su Ruoxi nodded: "Yes, that's what we planned."
Yang Zhiyi immediately said, "Don't buy in the community across the street. If you really want to buy, you can consider the community where Xixi's grandfather's house is located. It's also a newly renovated community, and there are many houses there. We can be neighbors."
Lu Cuiling was naturally the most enthusiastic and immediately said, "Okay, let's go over there and take a look later."
