Chapter 2: Chef 1

Now Lin Dan is a little hesitant, and subconsciously called out the system in his mind, and then hesitated-what is the system? Holding a spoon in her hand, a light layer of milky white soup was poured out of the spoon. It smelled delicious and there was a lingering aftertaste in her mouth. Apparently she had just taken a sip. But the problem is, Lin Dan has no idea who he is, what he is doing, and why he appears here somehow.
She stared at her thin, calloused hands, feeling that those hands were hers, but they didn't seem to be. She stood here, but she clearly did not belong here, like a stranger who suddenly broke in, and those around her. Everything is out of place. She couldn't even figure out what was going on.
But people around did not realize that Lin Dan was no longer Lin Dan at the moment. One of them pointed to a dish placed in front of her and said, "It still tastes so bad." But what kind of taste is he? It is not clear, after all, he is not a professional chef, but his taste is more sensitive than ordinary people.
Lin Dan was awakened by this sentence and looked up to find out that the other party was a boy in a golden suit. He is thin, fair-skinned, and handsome, and if he doesn't speak, he looks like a little girl. He is also like Lin Dan, holding a spoon in his hand while tasting the dishes, his brows frowned slightly, his expression looked very serious.
"I do owe some hope," another said slowly.
Lin Dan looked around and found that the person speaking this time was an old man with gray beard. Right now he was stroking his lips, as if to discern the aftertaste of the soup.
Lin Dan quickly looked away and looked around. Even if he didn't understand anything in his heart, he didn't show any confusion. She seemed to be used to dealing with this unexpected situation.
"What owes some fire? I think they are almost the same, it makes no difference." The person who spoke this time was a majestic middle-aged man wearing a robe embroidered with Xiangyun and Lan Qilin. It didn't seem low, because as soon as his voice fell, the people around him began to nod and agree, and the smile on his face was slightly charming.
But instead of focusing on him, Lin Dan turned his head and looked aside. A little girl standing seven or eight meters away from her, only 13 or 14 years old, had a square table in front of her, and a plate of dishes on the table, looking only at color, fragrance, and taste. Lin Dan's eyelids were almost the same.
Synthesizing circumstances, characters, and dialogue information, Lin Dan quickly concluded that he seemed to be competing with someone for cooking.
The little girl listened to the young man and the white-bearded old man, with a smile on her face, and saw that the middle-aged man didn't support herself, and her eyebrows were immediately twisted, and she looked stubborn: "Please ask Houye to try it carefully."
Hou Ye? Lin Dan, who was struggling to gather information, quickly glanced at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was about to speak, and Junxiu said impatiently, "Don't you taste the dishes for good or bad, what else can you do?" This was obviously said to Lin Dan, because he was black and white. Eyes stared straight at Lin Dan. The little girl was happy now, lowered her head, pursed her lips, and smiled shyly.
Previously, Lin Dan had tasted a dish of her own cooking, but she did not accept it. It was not appropriate to say "not to lose". It should be said that she could not taste the difference between her dishes and what she lacked, and thought that she had already The loser was very upset about it.
Once she had figured out the situation, Lin Dan did not have to respond to changes. She had to finish the play in accordance with the response of normal people, so she quietly evaluated the soup in the spoon and imported it. The indignant girl sipped the soup on her plate beside her.
These two dishes are crab-yellow chicken heart, which looks like just a few cooked cabbage leaves, but it takes a lot of effort to prepare. This is exactly how cooking works together. The simpler the dishes are, the harder it is.
Lin Dan originally only wanted to take two casual mouthfuls and voluntarily confessed, so that he could get away as soon as possible, and then find a place to quietly digest the sudden situation. But when she actually tasted two dishes, her taste buds and her brain automatically gave judgement. She was surprised to find that her taste seemed much more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and even a small difference could be magnified several times by the tip of her tongue, which was exactly what Lin Dan lacked before.
"I lost." After putting down the spoon, she said sincerely, "My vegetables are a little bit bitter." This kind of bitterness can't be tasted at all, and only the old lady who has extremely sensitive taste can tell.
The white-bearded old man took a deep look at her and mentioned, "That's right. You didn't wait for the dish to be fully cooked when you slurped it. This caused the starch heating time to be prolonged excessively, making it easy to burn and make it unpleasant. It ’s slippery. And the essence of the crab-fried chicken and chicken heart is in two words, one is fresh and sweet, and the other is smooth. Your dish looks like a decent one, but it tastes a little bit worse. "
Lin Dan nodded and said again, "I lost."
Seeing her calm and safe expression, and no resentment after defeat, the white-bearded old man nodded slightly. The middle-aged man sighed sighing, his face was intolerable, and a woman hiding behind her fell down while covering her chest, shocking everyone.
"No, Qi's fainted! Lin Dan, come and see your mother!" Immediately, two women supported the woman and beckoned Lin Dan again and again.
Lin Dan, who quickly gathered information from his words to supplement his identity, ran forward without hesitation and exclaimed: "Excuse me, please help me find a doctor, I will send my mother back first." The words naturally took over one of them. Women go to help women. The empty-handed woman never noticed anything abnormal, and hurriedly led the way, and soon brought Lin Dan back to her own home.
After some turbulence, the doctor finally came, saying that the women were not very ill, but they were worried about syncope caused by excessive thoughts, and it was good to drink some soothing soup.
After Lin Dan took the prescription, he took a silver slap from his head and counted it as a consultation fee. She didn't know where the women stored their money. Even if they knew that the money box must be locked, now the woman is dizzy and can't ask her to take the key.
The doctor glanced at her with mercy, and said warmly, "Hou Ye has already come out of the consultation fee, and you have to take it away. Give me the prescription, and I will let the little sister in Hou Fu catch it for you, your mother. He's dizzy and can't leave anyone. Hey ... "
Looking at the doctor who was walking away while shaking his head and sighing, Lin Dan realized that the previous cooking competition seemed to be important to herself, otherwise everyone would not have such great sympathy for her and her mother would not be there She fainted after conceding. But defeat is defeat. This is an undeniable fact, so Lin Dan has no remorse for what he did.
Seeing the woman's cold sweat on her face, she took up the copper basin and went outside to draw water, but she saw a 16-year-old or a teenager come in, and said in a small voice, "Lin Dan, I've caught the medicine for you, a bag The medicine and three bowls of water are boiled in a high fire and then boiled into a bowl with a low fire. Don't lose the remaining medicine residue, and you can boil two more doses, three doses a day, and even drink for seven days. "
Lin Dan quickly thanked him, and went to the kitchen to boil the medicine after sending him away. Whether it was chopping wood for a stove or fetching water from a bucket, this body could do it subconsciously. The soup has been boiled, and is bubbling with bubbles, Lin Dan withdraws some dry wood and uses a low fire to boil slowly. Then he brings a small stool and sits by the stove to sort out the memories.
She seemed accustomed to doing so, and soon understood her situation. Her father is the chef Lin Baotian of Houding, Yongding. As Yongding Hou is an old man, he pays special attention to food, so Lin Baotian, who has great cooking skills, is highly valued by the other party. He even takes him with him during the battle, which shows his status. Because of this, Lin Dan and Qi had a very good time in Houfu. Not only did they have a separate house to live in, but also a maidservant.
But two months ago, Lin Baotian suddenly died of a serious illness. When he died, he passed on his cooking skills and kitchen knives to Lin Dan, the only girl. Lin Dan has always admired Xiao Houye from a young age, and the other person is just like Lao Houye, and he loves to eat, so she practiced cooking every day just to let Xiao Houye look at himself more.
After the death of her father, she took over the mantle and continued to be a chef in Houfu. Although she was only twelve or thirty years old, she was very skilled. Occasionally, she made a long-running signature dish of scallion steak and ginseng, but she heard Xiao Hou said that the dish was not as good as the little girl in his yard.
Lin Dan has always been arrogant and arrogant. When he went to the little girl to take part in the contest, he did not expect that the little girl would shake up a big secret. It turned out that Lin Baotian's cooking skills and kitchen knives were stolen from her grandfather. Lin Baotian was not a descendant of the Golden Knife Royal Chef at all, but he deceived the ancestors.
The name of the young girl is Yan Langqing, and her grandfather is Yan Bo, the former Golden Knife chef. He has a good reputation in the industry. After he left the palace, he received several apprentices, one of which was Lin Dan's father, Lin Baotian. Later, Yan Bo was seriously ill and died. Yan Langqing's father happened to be in the field. He failed to rush back to send his father on the last trip. Lin Baotian buried Yan Bo and stole the Yuci Jindao and Yan family recipes. There is no trace.
Yan Langqing's father was grieved about this, and took his wife and children to search around. He finally found Lin Baotian in Houding, Yongding, but he didn't realize that the other party was dead. And look for opportunities to challenge Lin Dan, the bets are Yuci Jindao and Yan family recipes.
Lin Dan was very competitive and victorious. Where would he humiliate in front of Xiao Houye, and in order to defend his father's reputation, he should immediately challenge ... Then she lost, and then she became the current "Lin Dan". The handsome young man who served as a judge was the young Houye. The middle-aged man who knew that Lin Dan lost to Yan Langqing but still maintained was the old Houye.
Although the name is the same, Lin Dan can clearly feel that his former self and his current self are not the same person at all. Lin Dan was full of young princes, who could be ecstatic for one of his smiles, and frowning for one of him, but now, Lin Dan feels completely gone, and when he thinks of the other, he thinks of a stranger.
What she urgently needs to solve now is not identity and memory, but where to go from here. After losing the game, a sick mother needs to take care of her. What should she do in the future?
