Gourmet conquest starts from the entertainment industry.

"Teacher Zhou!"

"Teacher Zhou!"

When Zhou Mochen took Qin Zongsheng to the training base, he met many students, and everyone greeted them respectfully, not only because Zhou Mochen was their teacher, but also because Zhou Mochen is now No. 1 in cooking.

And looking at Zhou Mochen's eyes, he became more and more admiring. This man who was not a few years older than them was simply a legend.

Zhou Mochen smiled and nodded to everyone who greeted them.

"Nice place. Nice people."

Qin Zongsheng saw that many students are very energetic. This is a good sign. To learn cooking, you must have energy, ideas, and like this line of work. If you study hard, it is not advisable.

"It's all arranged by Li Yi and the others. I just came to class. There are other teachers watching in the afternoon."

Zhou Mochen replied with a smile.

"Come on, let me listen to your class too."

Qin Zongsheng replied with a smile.

"Okay, teacher. Please!"

After speaking, he took Qin Zongsheng to the classroom.

The very basic part has already been explained to the students.Those who can stay are those who sincerely want to learn how to cook and change their lives.Even if the talent is not enough, then there is hard work to make up for it.

What I am teaching now is the basic dishes in Sichuan cuisine, which are matched with basic spices and seasonings.

Because the previous foundation was laid very well, so now the students, learning the dishes, are still making rapid progress.The fastest two are Shen Lin and Chai Xue. It has to be said that good talent is a cow.Zhou Mochen also had other arrangements for the two of them.In the past few months of contact, these two people are the most talented among them, and they are also the most patient people.Zhou Mochen saw all this.

Qin Zongsheng also felt that these students were lucky to have Zhou Mochen personally teach them.

The whole morning passed quickly.When it was announced that the get out of class was over, everyone still had something to say, because Zhou Mochen not only told everyone how to make this dish, but also why the dish was matched in such a way and why the spices were put in these types.He spoke clearly.

Many students are used to taking notes.recording etc.

"Teacher. How is it? These students are okay."

Zhou Mochen smiled and showed off to Qin Zongsheng.

"Very good. Haha, it seems that you are on the right path."

Qin Zongsheng nodded.

"This training base will definitely be in operation for a long time in the future. Take your time, I'm still young."

Zhou Mochen responded.

"Just know what you have in mind. Don't worry about other things, just handle your affairs well. Your teacher, I'm not too old to walk."

Qin Zongsheng patted Zhou Mochen and went out.

The two also went back to the store together.When I got back, I was ready to eat.

As expected, the old couple only lived in Sioux City for a week before leaving.And Zhou Mochen sent things to the imperial capital one after another after they left.Some work, spices or something.Other fresh ingredients are naturally purchased by the relevant units of the imperial capital.Zhou Mochen only needs to place an order for ingredients.

And Zhou Mochen also left on the fifth day after the two left.He took Wu Jinchuan and Su Wenwen directly to the imperial capital.This time we will finish a banquet, so we need enough manpower.

After Zhou Mochen arrived in the imperial capital with his family and apprentices, he arranged a residence for the two apprentices.Because it wasn't time yet, Zhou Mochen gave them a holiday.Let them walk around the imperial capital.

And Zhou Mochen made a good visit to the imperial capital, his aunt Zhou Qingyou's family, and Wang's family went.Huang Xiaochu's house also went.

The Deyun Club had no performance that night.A lot of people were called together for dinner.They also haven't seen Zhou Mochen for a long time.I want to try Zhou Mochen's dishes even more.

"Sister-in-law! Where are you?"

Before the family of four arrived, Zhou Mowei called.

"It's on the way. Just now we went to buy some ingredients and were delayed on the way."

Zhao Jinmai replied with a smile.

"Yeah, I see, we're here."

Zhou Mowei missed her two little nieces very much.So I can't wait.

"Okay, see you later."

After speaking, I hung up.

"Mom, mother! Is it little aunt?"

Zhou Xiangxiang heard the voice of the phone and asked.

"Yeah, yes, it's your little aunt and uncle."

Zhao Jinmai rubbed her daughter's little head and said softly.

"Little aunt is beautiful."

Zhou Xiangxiang said with a smile.I often video with the two little guys, and they are still very familiar with Zhou Mowei.

"The mother is beautiful, but my aunt is more beautiful."

Zhao Jinmai asked on purpose.

"Huh? Dad is beautiful."

Zhou Qianqian said immediately.

"Haha, you two clever little ones."

Zhou Mochen suddenly laughed.Zhao Jinmai was so angry that he didn't want to speak.

The car arrived at Yu Qian's garden in a short while.Seeing Zhou Mochen arrive.Zhou Mowei and Guo Qilin hurried up to greet her.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

Zhou Mowei went up and gave the two of them a hug.

"It seems that Da Linzi is taking good care of him. He raised you up white and fat."

Zhou Mochen joked with a smile.

"Brother! How can I be fat?"

Zhou Mowei refused immediately after hearing this.

"That's right, nonsense. Our Weiwei is obviously very beautiful, okay?"

Zhao Jinmai gave Zhou Mochen a white look.

"Oh, Xiangxiang, Qianqian, do you miss little aunt?"

Zhou Mowei immediately knelt down and said to the two little guys.

"Think about it."

The little guys said with a lot of face.

"So cute. Mua!"

Zhou Mowei smiled and kissed the two little guys.

"Brother Chen, sister-in-law, go in and sit down. Give me something."

Guo Qilin smiled and took something from Zhao Jinmai's hand and said.

"Yo, our God of Cooking is willing to show up. Haha. You are so good, you have made Qin Guo proud."

Entering the courtyard, Yu Qian was dealing with things in the courtyard.

"Brother Qian, let me come."

Zhou Mochen took off his coat with a smile, put on his apron and went up to help.

He bought a lot of things, and asked Yu Qian to prepare a lot of things.A group of relatives and friends had dinner together, Zhou Mochen didn't cook those flashy dishes.

It is a home-cooked banquet in the Confucian Mansion Banquet.

The home-cooked banquet is a banquet set up in the Confucian Mansion for receiving relatives and friends. There are no strict regulations on the types of dishes, and seasonal ingredients can be selected according to the season.

On the basis of inheriting Confucian cooking techniques and combining the essence of Confucianism, today's Confucian banquets create a new style of Confucian banquets - the banquet of the essence of the six arts of Confucius, which is named after rituals, music, archery, royals, books, numbers, etc. .

In addition, there are also innovations such as Master’s Holy Pen, Shengshuxiang, Lieguoxing, Wenlong Guanshui, Belt Shangchao, Yipin Tofu, Di Jiu Tian Chang, Nishan Outing, Lubi Collection, Kong Rongrang Pear, Qilin Yushu, Xi Xiangxi Confucian dishes such as She, Hongyun Tongbao, and Baizi Laifu have profound meanings and grand shapes, making the Confucian banquet more exquisite and long-lasting.

Not only the name is tall and elegant, but the dishes are also very delicate, such as Yipin Tofu.

Yipin tofu is a classic and famous dish, which belongs to Confucian cuisine.This dish is white, delicate and tender, rich in nutrition and loved by people.

Tofu, Shuifa mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, ham, Shuifa scallops, Shuifa sea cucumbers, pork fat and lean meat, fresh shrimp, these are the auxiliary materials and ingredients needed for making tofu.

The method is very particular.Scallops, sea cucumbers, mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, fat and lean meat, water chestnuts, diced ham, blanch with shrimps and dry.

Add cooking wine and marinate with refined salt.Slice the elbow.Peel the tofu slices, then cover them with one piece, dig a hole in the middle and fill it with stuffing, cover the lid, put the elbow slices around it and put it in a casserole, add broth and seasonings, simmer for 1 hour and put it into the bowl.Boil the original soup and thicken it, pour it on the tofu and serve.

Time also passed slowly while Zhou Mochen was cooking, and the guests in the yard slowly arrived.When Wu Jing and his wife came, they went into the kitchen to say hello, and then ran out to play with the children.It's really Zhou Mochen's two daughters who are too painful.

Fortunately, Yu Qian and his two sister-in-laws were helping in the back kitchen.Otherwise, Zhou Mochen would be too busy.

"Xiao Chen, this dish is carefully prepared."

Yu Qian praised the finished product with a smile.

"This is a family feast. Although the ingredients are common, the recipe is exquisite. Well, the last dish is finished. Tell the people outside to eat."

Zhou Mochen said with satisfaction after pouring the last spoonful of oil on the Kirin Jade Book.

"Okay, I feel uncomfortable watching from the sidelines, and I can finally eat."

Yu Qian replied with a smile, and then went to set the tableware. By the way, he notified the people outside that dinner was ready, and everyone got busy.After a while, a table of dishes was set up.

"This meal came a little late, but it's finally here. Let's congratulate Xiaochen for winning the No.1 position in the world's culinary arts. The man is amazing. Don't say anything. Cheers."

After Yu Qian waited for everyone to sit down, he said.

"Damn! I was so happy just looking at it that day."

Wu Jing continued with a smile.Then he raised his glass too.

"You're welcome, thank you!"

Zhou Mochen smiled and drank the wine glass.

"Good. Delicious, seconds."

After drinking a glass of wine, everyone couldn't wait to taste Zhou Mochen's dishes.Immediately understood the mystery.Yu Qian had a look of surprise.

"Xiaochen. Niu! I finally understand why they are submissive. This is a crushing victory."

Wu Jing also said with emotion.

Everyone also has a look of disbelief.

Although Zhou Mowei thought it was delicious, she was a little uncomfortable at the moment.I don't know if I caught a cold.But Guo Qilin was very careful and noticed it.

"Weiwei. Are you okay? Is there something wrong?"

Guo Qilin asked with concern.

"No, no, evil"

After speaking, he covered his mouth and went to the toilet.

"What happened to Vivi?"

Zhou Mochen became anxious immediately.

"I'll go take a look."

Zhao Jinmai stood up quickly.Several sister-in-laws also followed.

The moment Zhou Mowei felt sick, she already knew why.I just didn't expect it to come so soon.Originally, the two already had plans to have children, but after seeing Zhou Xiangxiang and Zhou Qianqian grow up, they were even more out of control.Naturally, there was no movement in the middle.

However, the menstruation has been late recently, and it has been half a month and I haven't come yet. It's just that I've been busy recently, and Zhou Mowei just forgot.The discomfort just now made her suddenly aware.Foolishly rubbing his stomach.

"Weiwei, what's the matter? Tell my sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Zhao Jinmai asked anxiously.

"Sister-in-law, I, I seem to be pregnant."

Zhou Mowei said something in a daze.

"Huh? Really? It's been a while. Are you sure?"

Zhao Jinmai immediately asked in surprise.

"Vivi, are you pregnant?"

Xie Nan also had a look of surprise.

"Well, I haven't been here for half a month. I was busy in the middle, so I forgot and didn't check."

Zhou Mowei said embarrassedly.

"Weiwei, no matter whether it is tomorrow or not, I have to go for an inspection. Mom will accompany you."

Wang Hui also went to the bathroom at this moment.Hearing what Zhou Mowei said, he couldn't be happier.This is the next generation of the old Guo family.Although Guo Qilin is not his own, it is the same as his own.And she also likes Zhou Mowei, the daughter-in-law.The little girl is very cute, and it would be even better to give her two big fat grandchildren, preferably twins.It's beautiful to think about.

"Got it, mom. It's okay. I'll go tomorrow by myself. I'll trouble you to go to the hospital with me."

Zhou Mowei said with a smile.

"Listen to me. I'll accompany you tomorrow. This is a big deal. Let Da Linzi follow tomorrow. This kid doesn't know anything about his wife. I'll deal with him later."

Wang Hui also said angrily.Fortunately, there was no problem in the middle, otherwise it would have been a crime.

"Mom, don't blame him, I didn't even notice myself."

Zhou Mowei's instinct is to protect her husband.

"Okay, let's go. Your brother is still worried. He must be very happy to know that you are pregnant. The dishes on the table can't be eaten. Let your brother cook something light. He is good at this."

Zhao Jinmai was also very happy.Supporting Zhou Mowei, she went out.Everyone also smiled.

"Stinky boy. Your daughter-in-law didn't even know she was pregnant. How did you become a husband?"

When Wang Hui saw Guo Qilin standing outside the bathroom, he slapped him across the face.

"Huh? Pregnant? I'm going to be a father? Really, really?"

Guo Qilin was shocked immediately.He really didn't expect this to be the reason.There are indeed many performances recently.I didn't notice the abnormality, and immediately started to blame myself.

"Really! Mom will accompany me to the examination tomorrow."

Zhou Mowei looked at Guo Qilin with a smile and said.

"Okay, okay, great. I'll go tomorrow too. Check it out early in the morning. I, I'll call someone. We don't have to wait in line."

Guo Qilin immediately remembered that he needed to register in advance tomorrow.just said.

"Come on, Dalinzi, let your master arrange it later. Let's go. Others should wait and worry."

Bai Huiming said with a smile.She is also very happy.His apprentice daughter-in-law is pregnant.She will also be able to help with the children in the future.

"Hey, that's right! Find Master!"

Guo Qilin was both happy and silly at the moment.

"Brother Chen, go and make something light for Weiwei. She can't eat these anymore, Weiwei is pregnant."

After Zhao Jinmai and his party arrived at the restaurant, they said.

"Huh? Really? Okay, okay, I'll do it now."

Zhou Mochen was suddenly pleasantly surprised.The others are also happy, and today is really full of joy.When he was going to cook, everyone was not idle, and talked about the inspection tomorrow.Yu Qian immediately contacted his friends.No need to register, just go directly.

At the evening banquet, everyone didn't drink too late, but because they were happy, they drank a few more glasses.But Guo Qilin stopped drinking afterward.Zhou Mowei has to be taken care of at night.He didn't let her drive when he left.The four elders looked after her very much.

After the end, Zhao Jinmai took Zhou Mochen and his daughter back home.As soon as I got home, I gave the little one a bath.Zhou Mochen asked Wu Youyou to install a crib in advance before Zhou Mochen came.The little ones are also used to sleeping now, and it is not good to break suddenly.

The most important thing is that Zhou Mochen wants to sleep with Zhao Jinmai at night.

"I didn't expect Weiwei to be pregnant."

After waiting for Zhou Mochen to put his daughter to sleep, Zhao Jinmai leaned in Zhou Mochen's arms and said.

"She's one year older than you. You are the mother of two children. Da Linzi is not young anymore, and it's time to have a child."

Zhou Mochen scratched Zhao Jinmai's nose amusedly and said.

"I'm just talking. Hehe. I almost forgot that she is older than me."

Zhao Jinmai said embarrassedly.

"I'll finish the inspection tomorrow. After I'm sure, I'll talk to my parents and my eldest brother and sister-in-law. I guess they are also very happy."

Zhou Mochen said with a smile.

"Yeah. Teacher Guo and Teacher Yu will also be happy now."

Zhao Jinmai replied.

"I was a little girl before, and I'm going to be a mother soon. I've grown up."

The picture of brother and sister getting along flashed involuntarily in Zhou Mochen's mind.From childhood to adulthood.

"You. You have always raised Weiwei as a daughter. It feels like a girl in my family has just grown up, doesn't it?"

Zhao Jinmai said jokingly.

"I also treat you like a daughter, don't you realize?"

Zhou Mochen turned over and pressed Zhao Jinmai under him and said.

"Hmph. Not at all. Nonsense."

Zhao Jinmai said stiffly.But the eyes melted.The upturned corners of the mouth indicate that he is in a good mood.

"Stop talking nonsense, then use actions to show my love for you."

After speaking, he bent down.Zhao Jinmai also involuntarily hugged Zhou Mochen's neck.Then he was carried to the bathroom by the latter.

After a while, beautiful music sounded in the bathroom.

Early the next morning, two mothers came to Zhou Mowei's house.One is Wang Hui and the other is Bai Huiming.Here they have long been familiar with the road.In order to make it easier for Zhou Mowei to go to work, the young couple moved to Zhou Mowei's house after they got married.

"Mom, Master, why did you come so early?"

Zhou Mowei was sleepy right now, but she was still woken up by the alarm clock.When I got up, I found that the two elders had already prepared breakfast.

"Weiwei, come and have some breakfast, and go to the hospital for a checkup later."

Wang Hui said with a smile.Breakfast has been prepared for Zhou Mowei.Guo Qilin also came out after washing up.But he was scolded by his own mother.

After the four had eaten, Guo Qilin drove them to the hospital.It is still difficult to enter the hospital in the imperial capital, but they have local household registration and acquaintances, so they went straight to the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Zhou Mowei who was waiting for the result was quite nervous.So is Guo Qilin.The young couple is inexperienced and nervous.

"Hehe, Da Linzi, congratulations, you are going to be parents. It has been more than a month. I will come to the hospital for an obstetric examination in two weeks, and then I will have a B-ultrasound examination. Check the position of the child, and I will prescribe it for you." Some folic acid. From now on, you will need to eat folic acid every day. You should also pay attention to your daily life.”

Guo Qilin was a little surprised when he heard the confirmation, but he didn't hear anything clearly after that.Zhou Mowei was listening to the doctor's precautions very seriously.

The two elders were finally relieved now.After the diagnosis, you only need to wait a few months, and the little guy will come.Then he told his man the good news.The two couldn't be happier.They were all wondering if they were going to prepare a gift for the little guy.

And Zhou Mochen naturally knew it too.Also very happy.This time he is an uncle.It was the first time for him to be someone's uncle, and it felt amazing.It was also the first time to call Zhou Weimin and his wife.Without saying a word, they directly booked tickets to come to the imperial capital.

Zhou Weimin and Liu Mei arrived the next day.It is natural for the two parents to have dinner when they meet, but Zhou Mochen didn't let Zhou Mochen do it this time, knowing that he is preparing for the state banquet recently.After the review, Zhou Mochen went to the State Banquet Hotel. First, he familiarized himself with the venue to see if there was anything missing, and mentioned it to the higher-ups, and made it complete as soon as possible.

The chefs at the State Banquet Hotel saw that Zhou Mochen had arrived, and they acted like elementary school students waiting for the teacher to check their homework.Asked Zhou Mochen, he didn't hide his secrets, and he gave pointers to everything he knew.This made everyone admire him even more.

If a person is stronger than you, you may be envious and jealous.But if you are a world stronger than you, then there is only worship.Not even a little bit of jealousy.

On September 9th, in the morning, Zhou Mochen took his apprentices to start processing related ingredients.The number of people has been booked, which is really quite a lot, although it is only one table.A table full of Chinese people is enough for these people to eat.

And Zhao Jinmai went directly to work on his own work, Zhou Weimin and his wife did not leave, knowing that Zhou Mochen was busy with the state banquet.He was very proud, so he directly took over the two little guys for Zhou Mochen.

And what Zhou Mochen is going to cook this time is the Pan Banyan in the Manchu Banquet.There is nothing wrong with entertaining VIPs from abroad.

This banquet was set up by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty to entertain Mongolian relatives married to the royal family.Generally, a banquet is held in the Tianzheng Daguangdian Hall, accompanied by first- and second-rank Manchu ministers.

The emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to this banquet, which was held every year as a rule.The Mongolian relatives who received the banquet regarded the banquet as a great blessing, and cherished the food that the emperor rewarded during the banquet.

The article "Bringing Blessings Back Home at Banquets of Barnyard Banknotes in the Qing Dynasty" said: "The Mongolian princes of the annual class came to Beijing, and they were rewarded with food. , flat gold embroidered python, often dipped in soup, dripping, no regrets.

"Master, do you have to deal with so many things?"

Fifth Jinchuan looked at the items on the menu.Said.

"Well, don't worry. We are preparing for tomorrow's dinner, and we only need to deal with a part of it today. Soaked hair, prepared in advance. These need to be dealt with."

Zhou Mochen said with a smile.

"Hey, master can teach me how to make those candied pastries this time."

Su Wenwen replied with a smile.

"You're only going to strike this time. But be careful and observe."

Zhou Mochen said seriously.

"Yeah, I see, Master."

Su Wenwen nodded in response.

Speaking of which, Zhou Mochen began to arrange the work of the two apprentices.Each performs his duties.

"Master Ouyang. Why are you here?"

A voice sounded not far from the back kitchen.

"Well, Master Zhou and the others are here?"

Ouyang Shaoqi asked.

"Yeah. Here we are, the back cook."

"it is good!"

After speaking, he went straight to the kitchen. (end of this chapter)
