self-improvement as a cook

Chapter 55

The tastes of life are sometimes sour and sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter and sometimes spicy, depending on the timing at that time.An Ran herself didn't expect it, but half a year later, when the master and apprentice meet again, she is already going to marry. The master means a lot to her, even more than the godmother who helped her in helplessness.

That kind of trust and support regardless of the reason gave An Ran an unprecedented sense of security.In her heart, the master is an elder just like her grandfather, and even more a relative, and An Ran was quite moved to see her relatives before getting married.

Mei Da helped Mr. Mei get off from the car behind: "You girl, are you stupid? Your master is here, and you are not allowed to go in. Just stand outside and do what you want. If you want to talk, you have to sit down first."

Only then did An Ran come back to her senses, she hurriedly stepped forward to support her master and said embarrassedly: "Seeing that An Ran is so happy, she didn't even know to let master and brother in first."

A group of people went in now, they were all relatives, and there was no need to wait for tea in the living room, they went directly to the back and let them sit on the kang, while Gao Bingyi's family and Mrs. Shuanzi had already moved to the wing room.

The master and Mr. Mei sat on the side of the kang, and Mei moved two stools over and placed them on the lower end for An Ran's two senior brothers to sit on. ?”

The old man smiled and nodded at her: "The apprentice is about to get married, can the master not come? You girl is quick. A few days ago, I told your two senior brothers to find them a wife. What is it like not to have a family, I don’t think you are the youngest girl, but the fastest, you will find someone if you don’t want to slip away, master can make a deal first, if you can’t get through the eyes of the master, the master will not agree.”

Mr. Mei laughed: "You old man's temper really hasn't changed at all. Mr. Mei, come and meet your wife's master. If the old man doesn't nod, your wife won't be able to marry you."

Mei Da hummed, and when she came to her, she kowtowed three times on her knees: "Mei Da kowtows to the old man, don't worry, the old man, I will treat An Ran well for the rest of my life."

Mr. Mei was stunned, but he knew how proud this kid was, he was so humble to someone before, if he didn't love this girl to death, how could he be like this.

Although I promised this kid not to expose it in front of the old man, I was afraid that the old man would think this kid was ugly and not worthy of his sweet little apprentice, so he hurriedly said: "Old man, it's about the little children. Well, let's be elders, don't meddle along, this good day is set, if you go back on your word, it's too late."

The old man glared at him, looked at Mei carefully for a long time, his eyes fell on the mask on his face, and then looked at the nervous little girl beside him, his eyes flickered as if he was afraid that he would not agree, he couldn't help sighing Tone: "You can talk, but where has this girl's heart gone to you? As a master, I can force you to stay, but I still have to ask a question, do you know everything before An Ran?"

Mei Da nodded: "I know."

"You don't care?"

Mei raised her head: "Mei doesn't care about the past, what Mei wants is the future."

"Okay." Mr. Zheng patted the table: "Old man Mei will be a witness. I will remember this. If you treat this girl badly in the future, I will not seek you. I will only ask old man Mei to question her."

Mr. Mei couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, just ask me for your crime." Then, he looked at An Ran: "Girl, it's almost noon, your master and brother came all the way to Qizhou, shouldn't you buy it?" A table of good dishes, welcome to your master and brother."

An Ran laughed: "An Ran will go get ready now." He walked out quickly.Gao Deming and Zhao Yongfeng also followed out.

Mr. Zheng glanced at Mr. Mei, and said angrily, "I haven't seen you for so many years, why are you so greedy, old man?"

"This is what I said, without delicious food, what is the fun of the old man's life, but, you are a good apprentice, and you are much better than her two senior brothers. Speaking of this girl, the old man is really curious. The last time I saw you At that time, I didn’t have such an apprentice, and it’s only been a few years, how can I teach such a powerful apprentice, you don’t know, this girl is fighting for your face in Qizhou.”

Mr. Zheng shook his head: "It's not something I can teach, it's her own ability. This girl is born to be a cook."

Mr. Mei nodded: "That's right, I'm convinced of your culinary skills, but when it comes to northern cuisine, An Ran can be regarded as better than blue. The three northern dishes are better than the northern cooks in Qizhou. That's fine, but How difficult it is for the cooks from the north and the south to reconcile, I think you, an old man, know best that it is the luck of the whole kitchen business that this girl can inherit your mantle."

Mr. Zheng: "I also heard about Qizhou in Jizhou. That's why I let this girl out. After all, Jizhou is too small. This girl should have a wider world, but she and Han Zizhang are facing each other. But it also makes me quite worried." Said, looking at Mei Da.

Mr. Mei smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this, Mei Da can protect this girl, and this kind of thing is not something you can avoid by worrying about it, but I think this girl's method is more useful than yours. Blindly giving in will only make a villain like Han Zizhang more proud. The cooks of the northern school have something to eat, so how should the cooks of the southern school live? This is not the solution after all, but this girl, she three Daobei cuisine beats the North School, and a cook asked her whether it was the North School or the South School. You know what this girl said. She said that she was a cook. Later, the old man thought about it, and it was this sentence that made the North and South cooks in Yanzhou Prefecture Gradually dispelling the estrangement and starting to get along well, the old man can see that this girl really thinks so in her heart, she has no distinction between northern and southern sects in her eyes, and even has a good understanding of the cuisines of various places, even those from Sichuan. It's the same with the dishes, sometimes, this girl really surprises the old man, I don't know where you got such a girl to be your apprentice."

The old man couldn't help but think of the development of the kitchen industry and the evolution of the cuisine that An Ran had told him, and he couldn't help nodding secretly. What the old man Mei said was that he was afraid that there would be no other person in the world who could do this.

Even though I said that there is no distinction between north and south, sometimes I can't help but lean towards the south. Only this girl, she is proficient in all major cuisines, from origin to development, and even if she is not proficient in every cooking technique, she knows it in detail. The private kitchen of her family has been gradually formed by absorbing the strengths of all the families. She is truly independent of factions, so she can do things that she has been unable to do for many years, even if there is only one Yanzhou government. .

Because the old man knew that with the example of the harmony between the north and the south in Yanzhou Prefecture, there would be a whole kitchen business, but Han Zizhang was afraid that he would not give up easily.

As soon as An Rang and the two senior brothers came out, they saw Gouzi and Gao Bingyi. Gao Bingyi came here at some point, standing on the porch at a loss, quite agitated. In contrast, Gouzi was much calmer.

Seeing An Ran's two seniors, Gao Bingyi hurriedly cupped his hands: "Gao Bingyi, I have long admired the name of Chef Gao, Chef Zhao."

The two senior brothers glanced at An Ran.

An Ran smiled and said: "This is Master Gao, the chef in charge of Fuchun Residence."

Gao Deming and Zhao Yongfeng hurriedly cupped their hands: "So it's Brother Gao."

An Ran smiled and said: "They are not outsiders, so don't be polite."

Gouzi blinked: "What the master said is that they are all his own people, so why not be polite." Then he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Gao Deming and Zhao Yongfeng: "Gouzi kowtowed to the two masters, I am the master The disciples accepted by Qizhou, I heard that there is a senior brother named Defu in Jizhou Prefecture, and I am the second child." He said, and kowtowed three more times.

What Gouzi said was interesting, Zhao Yongfeng couldn't help saying: "Didn't you kowtow three times just now, what are you kowtowing for?"

Gouzi chuckled: "Back to Master, I also have a younger brother named Shunzi, who was also my master's apprentice in Qizhou. When the Fuchun Residence caught fire, his leg was broken by a beam, and now he is recuperating at home." , you can’t kowtow to the two masters, it’s the same if I kowtow for him.”

When the two heard this, they couldn't help but think back to the time when the two beggars depended on each other for life. Although they were not brothers, they were better than brothers. , The days are stable, but the relationship between the two is always the same.

Gouzi kowtowed his heads and hit their hearts. Gao Deming nodded: "He is a good boy. He came in a hurry, and he didn't bring any gift for his nephew. So, I will teach you the unique skills of my uncle later. Do you want to learn or not?"

An Ran was afraid that Gouzi would be stupid, so she hurriedly reminded him: "Senior Brother's first-hand knife skills, the master is far behind, and the master's unique skill of turning spoons is learned from your second uncle."

Gouzi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said hurriedly: "Learn, learn, Gouzi learn." The two brothers laughed.

Mr. Mei who was in the room laughed and said: "Gouzi is a clever boy. He has seen his uncle's craftsmanship just now. If he doesn't come in with your uncle, he will also kowtow to your uncle."

Gouzi looked at An Ran, An Ran nodded: "Go, don't be afraid, Master has a good temper." Then Gou Zi followed Gao Bingyi in.An Ran and two senior brothers went into the kitchen to clean up the table.

Mei Da stood on the porch and looked at the kitchen from a distance. It was the first time she saw An Ran getting along with her two senior brothers. In front of his two senior brothers, this girl seemed to be younger. Hitting the bottom, talking and laughing, acting like a baby from time to time, it's like a different person, that little face is brighter than the sun.

Seeing this, Mei Da was quite upset. The little girl had never laughed like this with herself before, but she was smart enough to know that at this time, she must not offend her two senior brothers. It could be seen that in the little girl's heart, her master and senior brother quite important.

Zhao Yongfeng glanced at Mei Da on the porch outside, and exchanged glances with Gao Deming, Gao Deming said: "Little Junior Sister, I really want to marry that Mei Da? In fact, you are still young, only seventeen, so you just don't want to marry." , me and your second senior brother can also support you."

"That is to say." Zhao Yongfeng curled his lips: "This guy is not worthy of our little junior sister, and he is not from our kitchen shop."

An Ran couldn't help laughing: "I know senior brother is reluctant to part with An Ran, but Mei Da is really kind to me. On the day Fuchun Residence was on fire, if he hadn't rushed in to rescue me, I'm afraid An Ran would have been buried in the flames. At that time, An Ran I just thought, life is impermanent, it is really not easy to find a man who can give his life to save me, even if I get married, what's more, Mei Da is good at skills and has no worries, marrying him safely does not need to serve his parents-in-law, let alone worry about his sister-in-law. It’s just right for him to accompany me to walk around and have a look around, gain a lot of knowledge and learn the craft well.”

Zhao Yongfeng couldn't help saying: "You girl still needs to learn your skills. Even when we were in Jizhou Mansion, we all heard that you won three dishes of northern cuisine against the cooks of the Northern School. It's unbelievable."

An Ran couldn't help laughing: "It's rumored outside, but it's just cooking." As she said that, she glanced at the senior brother: "Well, what else did the senior brother hear?"

Seeing her cautious look, Gao Deming thought of something, his heart became hot, he raised his hand and touched the top of her hair, his eyes were soft: "You girl still want to avenge the elder brother, actually five years ago Senior brother didn't care about the matter for a long time, but after thinking about it, the melon that was twisted is not sweet, and it's good to withdraw the marriage. If you don't withdraw the marriage and marry an unwilling wife, it's better not to marry for life. "

An Ran nodded: "The girl from the Wei family, it's her loss that she didn't marry the senior brother, and Cui Qing is a drunk, described as wretched, when he was competing with me, his eyes kept looking at me. threw out his kitchen knife, and hacked him to death.”

Mei Da who was listening outside was stunned, this girl is really not a good tempered girl, suddenly remembered some things in the past, she couldn't help laughing, she tried it herself, this girl is definitely a soft-spoken girl.

An Ran asked about the situation of the godmother's family.

Senior brother: "Your godmother and your family are all good. Zhou Tai has become the steward of the village, and Zhou He is about to make it through. Your godmother is no longer working in the kitchen outside. You and your godfather are in charge of the garden. That lotus pond is quite leisurely. Your apprentice Defu is talented and willing to learn. During the past half a year in the big kitchen, his skills have improved a lot and he knows how to be filial. The master likes him very much and gives him some pointers from time to time. , the one in your outside kitchen named Liu Xi'er has now been transferred to another courtyard. I heard that under the chief housekeeper, An Yuan, he is clever and has become the manager of affairs. That's all, only you have been away for half a year. The An Mansion has completely changed."

An Ran was stunned for a moment, but heard the second senior brother take it over and said: "But, after you left last year, the Eldest Master suddenly fell in love with an opera singer. In the mansion, it was placed in Qingzhu Lane, and the old man also moved there, but he lived a small life in Qingzhu Lane. I went home and gave them money to let them marry each other. You know those few who are willing to go home, crying and making noise. Later, the elder master said that if you don’t want to marry another, you can go to the Auntie Temple Nun, it just stopped, you don’t know, it’s been a mess for a while.”

Eldest brother nodded: "The Eldest Master is now living his little life in Qingzhu Lane, there is no sign of him, the Second Master is in Beijing, the Third Master is not there, and the aunts and wives have all gone out, and the mansion is peaceful. This means, maybe he wants to marry the opera singer from Qingzhu Lane. It is said in the house, but he has never even seen what that person looks like. The old man looks like a top-notch man. They didn't even come out, and before the banquet was over, they were carried into Qingzhu Lane, and the whole Jizhou Mansion was full of uproar, saying that that was the mistress of An Mansion."

An Ran was stunned for a while, but she really didn't expect that An Jiamu would be like this, no matter whether she was a singer or not, since she was willing to get rid of all his wives and concubines for her, it can be seen that she really liked her.

An Ran couldn't help but think of what he said to herself at the beginning, and why it happened to be Qingzhu Lane, An Ran couldn't tell whether it was sour or irritated, but it was uncomfortable.

But I thought again, why am I so sour?What should I do?When I left Jizhou Mansion, I broke up with An Jiamu. Now that he has found true love, he is going to get married, isn't it the most happy ending?

Looking up, seeing Mei Da standing on the porch, she couldn't help but feel relieved, and smiled at him. This man is the husband she wants to marry. They love each other, they hit it off, and they will be able to live forever in the future. An Jiamu is just a passer-by in his own life , just as the wind passes without a trace.

The table was placed in the main room, and they were all close people, so there was no need to pay too much attention. The master, Mr. Mei, two senior brothers, Mei Da, An Ran, and Gao Bingyi, seven people sat around the table to a full capacity.

Gouzi held the pot, pouring wine for Master Zumei for a while, and serving dishes for a while. He was very busy, and the meal was very harmonious.

The master and brother came from a long way, and the boat and car were exhausted. The two brothers were okay, and they talked happily with Gao Bingyi. They were quite speculative and did not feel tired at all. After eating and seeing the master take a nap, they followed Gao Bingyi to visit Daming Lake with great interest up.

Mr. Mei went back to the plum garden, and An Ran placed the master in the main room. The quilt had already been made, and Gao Bingyi’s family and Mrs. Shuan Zi’s mother had already gone home. For a while, only An Ran and Mei Da were left in the small courtyard, and it was quiet. stand up.It was warm in the afternoon, so the two of them sat and talked under the grape arbor in the yard without going into the house.

The vines have been planted for a few days and have begun to sprout. The tender grape buds are especially green under the sun. Even if the racks are still bare, seeing this touch of green makes people feel good.

An Ran lifted the teapot from the warm jacket, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Brother Mei, thank you."

Mei Da shook her head: "Thank you again, I'm really angry, your godmother's family has an errand, and it's not convenient to travel far, so I only invited your master and brother."

An Ran smiled: "Master and senior brother are able to come, An Ran is already very satisfied, presumably you begged Mr. to help negotiate the matter, so the master and senior brother can come here."

Mei Da's eyes flashed, she grabbed her hand and brought it to her lips for a kiss: "I don't want you to thank me, I just want you to remember how good I am to you, if something goes wrong in the future, think about it , just think about my mind."

An Ran smiled: "If anything goes wrong, I haven't married you yet, so why don't you vaccinate me?"

What is vaccination?
An Ran laughed, forgetting that this is ancient times, she shook her head: "I just know that I will make mistakes, let me prepare in advance, and I will forgive you when the time comes."

Mei Da's eyes flashed: "If this is the case, will you forgive me?"

An Ran blinked: "That depends on what mistakes you made. If it's a trivial matter, it's fine. If it's a matter of principle, why should I forgive you?"

So what is a matter of principle?
An Ran said strangely: "You didn't really make a mistake, did you?"

Mei Dahe laughed twice: "What mistake can I make, just gossip?"

"For me, the issue of principle is very simple, that is, there can be no other people besides me. Regardless of Dayan's rules and etiquette, I, An Ran, will never be with others." Seeing his clear eyes, he didn't feel guilty at all, instead he grabbed her hand and asked her, "What else?"

An Ranfang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that this man would suddenly tell herself that there were other people outside.

He tilted his head and thought for a while, and there seemed to be nothing more serious than unforgivable, so he shook his head: "It's gone." As soon as An Ran finished speaking, he was pulled into his arms and hugged her tightly. I felt him whispering in my ear: "You can remember what you said today, and don't make things difficult for me in the future."

An Ran couldn't help looking up at him: "You're a little weird today, you always ask me why?"

Mei Da shook her head: "There's nothing weird about it, you just have a bad temper, I'm afraid you'll get into trouble with me over some trivial matter in the future, just like you said, you can feel at ease if you get some injections in advance."

An Ran laughed, and said in a low voice: "Your words sound like I ran away if I didn't like it."

Mei Da looked at her feeling sorry for her, isn't that what this girl is like, this time she ran to Yanzhou Mansion, if she ran to Sichuan, where would she go to find someone, now, he wished he could tie this girl On the belt of the trousers, I wear it every day, so I won’t miss it, and it’s gone, not to mention, there are so many evil wolves out there with malicious intentions...

Thinking of something, she clenched her big hand subconsciously, An Ran snorted in pain, Mei Da let go of her hastily, An Ran looked at her hand: "Why are you so hard?"

Mei Da looked at it, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed. Her white and tender hands turned red: "I'm sorry, I'll rub it for you." She said, grabbing her hand and gently rubbing it, wondering if it's safe. Illusion, I always feel that when this guy rubs his hand, he is thinking of other things, otherwise, how come he gets closer and closer to him, and he is about to kiss him.

An Ran suddenly remembered that the master was in the room, even though she was taking a nap, she and Mei Da were making out with each other outside, it was a bit too brazen, so she hurriedly pushed him away.

It just so happened that Wang Gui came in and said, "Master and Madam, some masters from Qizhou City are here."

An Ran was taken aback: "The news from them is fast."

Mei Da: "We all know that we are going to get married. I thought your master would come, maybe let the guys watch it early. Your master got off the front foot of the car, and they probably got the letter on the back foot. The reason why you came just now is because you know Your master has come all the way from afar and is exhausted, he needs to rest, otherwise, how could he wait until now."

As soon as Mei Da finished speaking, he saw Mr. Zheng coming out of the house, and An Ran hurried over: "Why are you up, master?"

The old man smiled and said: "When people get old, they feel less sleepy. If they continue to sleep, they will not be able to fall asleep at night. There is no short rest along the way, and they are not tired. Although your master is old, he is still in good health. Don't worry about it, I just heard that several masters from Qizhou have come, and the masters from Jufeng Tower and Huiquan Pavilion are old friends of the master, so why not neglect them now that they are here."

An Ran nodded, helped the master and went out, and went to the front living room, and saw that the eight restaurants were all there, even the new owner of Yanhetang was not behind, and when they saw Mr. Zheng, they all saluted: "The eight restaurants in Qizhou The master greets the old man."

The old man cupped his hands: "Everyone is polite, the old man can't afford it." He said, looking at Qian Hong and Feng Ji: "You two masters are so nice, I haven't seen you for many years."

The two said excitedly: "The old man still remembers us?"

The old man stroked his gray beard: "You are Mr. Qian's family from Jufeng Tower, and you are Mr. Feng's family from Huiquan Pavilion. The old man still remembers the unique skills of the two of you. The bag chicken in Jufeng Tower, Huiquan The shrimp cooking section in the pavilion is famous throughout Dayan."

Qian Hong hurriedly said: "The old man is embarrassing us, what a unique skill, if it weren't for Miss An's help, the signboard passed down by the ancestors would have almost been smashed."

The old man took a look at An Ran: "She is a kid, and she hasn't graduated yet. If she insists on coming out to see, the old man can't do anything about it, but she has a childish character, and she is inevitably competitive. If she offends a few masters, please forgive me." Seeing Zheng Chunyang's old face, don't care about her children."

Look at this master and apprentice, the apprentice is generous, and the master is even more humble. He obviously stood up for reason, but he admitted his mistake first when he came up. Calling them masters, I really feel a little bit uncomfortable. Compared with Han Zizhang's master and apprentice, it is really different Even though we all know that this old man is the leader of the Southern School, I have to say something in my heart, not to mention craftsmanship, even Han Zizhang can't catch up with this character.

Feng Dong's family hurriedly said: "What the old man said is that we can't hold our heads up anymore. At the beginning, we ran out of the chefs of the Southern School, but we were not missing. It was Ms. An who gave us the recipes of the An family's menu regardless of the past. Qizhou’s Eight Big Brands have launched innovative dishes on the basis of signature dishes, which is why we have new students from time-honored brands, and the cooking skills, bearing, and openness of the girls are all the same in our kitchen.”

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up: "Our entire kitchen business in Yanzhou Mansion is convinced. What the girl said is that they are all in the same business, why bother to make things difficult for ourselves, and we can only eat by helping each other. During the meal, we are fighting against each other to the death, even laymen look down on us, we are here today to invite the old man to be worshiped by us." Said, Qi Qi bowed to the ground.

The old man hurriedly said: "This can't be done, can't be done, can't be done."

Gouzi supported Shunzi just outside the door, just in time to see this scene, the eyes of both of them lit up, Shunzi said: "See, our master is so beautiful, we will be a cook like a master tomorrow."

Gouzi nodded: "Yeah." But he glanced at him and said worriedly: "What do you think you have to come here for? If you can't raise it and become a lame, let alone a cook, you can't do anything."

Shunzi rolled his eyes at him: "The master is here, I, as a disciple, can't come and kowtow, isn't it plausible?"

Gouzi chuckled: "Don't worry about this, I'll take care of it for you."

Shunzi patted him: "That's good enough, he's my good senior brother, but I have to come here too. When my father was alive, he often told me about the ancestor. At that time, I thought, if one day I become a cook, It is worth dying to see the master, but I never thought that I could enter the master's door and become the disciple of the old man, sometimes thinking about it, I can wake up laughing from a dream."

"Look at how promising you are."

Shunzi quit: "I don't believe you're not excited, but I heard from Chef Gao that when the master agreed to take you in, you woke up laughing."

Gouzi blushed: "What are you talking about, it's true to learn the craft well from the master." Seeing that there were too many people in the living room, it was difficult for them to go in and cause trouble, so they went to the backyard to wait.

However, after seeing the ceremony, several hosts talked about An Ran's marriage. They all knew that Fuchun Residence was still under construction and they couldn't set up a table. They wished they could put the table in their own restaurant.

"Old man, you have been to our Jufeng Tower, the place is open and bright, and there are dozens of tables and seats up and down. Okay, where we are next to the water, the scenery is far better than your Jufeng Tower, you can rest, the bigger place in Huiquan Pavilion can set up a few tables, it is better where we are , where do we fit..."

Zheng's face was red and his neck was thick, and he didn't even care about his old friendship for many years.

An Ran was a little dumbfounded.

The old man had already heard from Mr. Mei that the two juniors didn't want to make a fuss, so they just set up a few tables in the yard and invited relatives and friends to sit down.

The old man also thought it was good, so he said: "Several bosses heard from the old man that the girl has no parents, so I, as the master, will make decisions for her. We are not a wealthy family, and we have to pay attention to decency, that is. It's all right if it's lively, as long as the young couple can live happily ever after they get married, it's nothing better than anything. This yard looks good to me. When the time comes, it will be opened back and forth, and there will be a few tables of running water seats. A few people from Qizhou Old club, don’t forget to come over and have a glass of wedding wine when the time comes.”

The old man has spoken, no matter how dissatisfied the bosses are, they can only give up, but they each have their own ideas. The recipes of An Ran's Anjia menu are really a kind of reinvention for these time-honored brands. Now this business is getting more and more prosperous. It's just dragging people's blessings.

What's more, no matter how young you are, just relying on this skill, you are also a master in the kitchen, and you can't get married without slipping away. No matter what, you have to be lively and lively. Girls are not willing to make arrangements, so they come.An Ran was still in the dark, but these people were already getting ready.

It was the sixth day of March, and there was a spring rain on the fifth night of the first day, and it cleared up early in the morning. The sky washed by the rain was blue and clear, which made people feel at ease at first glance.

The new house is in Fuchunju, and the plum garden has temporarily become An Ran's natal home. Since the day the plum garden was built, it has never been as lively as it is today, and people come and go.

Take a bath, open your face, get on your head... In the middle of the night, Anran was tossed and worked until the sun was high, and the tossing was not over yet. She pressed Anran's hungry chest to her back, repeatedly asked for food, and was raped by Gao Bingyi's family. He rejected it in a positive manner, with that face, as if eating safely was something that shouldn't be done.

An Ran said in her heart that if she continues to be so hungry, she will starve to death before entering the bridal chamber. Moreover, she clearly told Mei Da that it is not a big deal, so why is it so complicated? In terms of torture, when I was practicing knife skills and turning spoons, what I grinded with my hands was full of blood bubbles, so I didn't feel very sad.

As for the effect, An Ran has to admit that this crime was not in vain, the skin was already fair, after putting on the makeup on the face, the pores were almost invisible, the hair was all pulled up, revealing the slender neck, and immediately changed from a young girl to a young girl. A woman, charming and youthful mixed into a different kind of style, very attractive.

Shuan Ziniang said with a smile: "Young girl already has a good appearance, but this time she opened her face, it's even more amazing, she looks like a fairy who descended to the earth from the nine heavens, my uncle is really lucky, I can laugh when I see you soon It's crooked." Everyone in the room laughed when he said a word.

An Ran couldn't help being a little shy, looking at the fuzzy face in the bronze mirror, her facial features were still a little unfamiliar, but the look in her eyes was very familiar, she was An Ran, not that confused girl in An's house, she was the successor of the An family's private kitchen, She is going to get married, and she couldn't help but say something in her heart, Dad, Mom, Grandpa, An Ran will have a good life, don't worry.

Suddenly I heard firecrackers going off outside, and I heard Gouzi shouting outside: "Master is here to pick up Master."

Gao Bingyi's family laughed until he fell down: "This kid is really fast."

With a big red hijab covering her head, everything she could see turned into a happy red. An Ran didn't understand the ancient wedding customs, but felt that it was extremely simple, but also complicated.

It was easy to get on the sedan chair, lifted it up and walked to the street, but felt that the two sides were becoming more and more lively, just wondering, suddenly heard the voice of Shuan Ziniang from outside the sedan chair: "Oh, miss, your marriage is decent, Qizhou The eight major restaurants set up water mats on the street to make the girl happy."

An Ran was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly picked up the hijab, slightly opened the car curtain and looked out, good guy, tables were set up along both sides of the long street, one by one you couldn't see the edge at a glance.

The people in front of the table are made by the common people of Qizhou. Not far away, there are several fire stoves, each of which has high flames, and the spoons in the chef’s hands are full of flowers. They are all cooks from the Eight Great Restaurants.

From this moment on, this girl is not only his daughter-in-law, but also a highly respected top chef in the kitchen business. What the husband said is that if you love her, you must love everything about her, and love the entire kitchen business she cares about. Support her and help her accomplish what she wants to do.

Just like she said to herself, she would never be a man's vassal, she was more dazzling than all men, and Mei Da suddenly found that what she loved was exactly this kind of An Ran...
