three of you left, Brother Yu, Madam Du, and a chef from Wei Yuan Inn.

What inn? Yu Wan looked at him.

Wei Yuan Inn, said Master Qin.

Yu Wan : Shouldnt it be the Wei Yuan Escort Agency? Why did an inn have the name of an escort agency? It sounded very lousy, but they managed to enter the top three.

Master Qin gulped down another cup of tea before saying, By the way, we can use our ingredients for this round.
Have you thought of what to use?

Yu Wan took out a small jar from her bag.
Yus Stinky Tofu Beancurd!

After careful discussion, they decided on this after filtering out the marinade, sauce, shark fin, stinky tofu, and other stunning ingredients.

Compared to the stinky tofu that always occupied the center position, the potential of the fermented bean curd was even higher.
It would not steal the limelight, but it could also add fragrance to the dish.
Of course, this was all based on the fact that his culinary skills were high enough.

Master Qin had tasted the Yu Familys fermented bean curd before, but it was accompanied by stinky tofu that had just been fried.
It was salty, cool, and had a sharp stench.
The texture was tender and smooth.
He wondered how the stir-fry was.
Wouldnt it be too smelly?

Stinky tofu itself was smelly, so it was fine to match it with fermented bean curd, but other ingredients

Master Qin cleared his throat.
Ahem! Are you sure you dont want to change to something else? I heard that Madam Du brought rose brine.

The rose brine was a sauce that was mixed with white sugar and fresh rose petals that was smashed into a paste.
It was sprinkled with a layer of honey and had a sweet taste.
The fragrance of flowers filled the air.
It was a very high-end ingredient.

No, the Yu Family members said in unison.

Fine, as long as you guys are happy.

This was the last round of the competition today.
The winner would be lucky enough to compete with Chef Bao.
Whether they won or not was another matter.
Just being able to stand on the same stage as Chef Bao was enough to make people famous.

Wei Yuan Inn and Drunken Immortal Pavilion were both dark horses that had appeared out of nowhere.
No one thought highly of them, and they all guessed that they could only be stepping stones for Madam Du.

Who said that! Bai Tang also came.
She walked out of the room and roared at the guests gathered in the corridor, Do you know who the chef of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion is? Its Master Yu whose recipes were plagiarized by the Tianxiang Restaurant! He was the one who made the five signature dishes of the Tianxiang Restaurant! What do you mean by being a stepping stone for others? Its more like Madam Du is a stepping stone for him!

A young guest jumped out and said, Where did this ignorant girl come from! Madam Du is the personal disciple of Chef Bao! Can he be compared to Madam Du? Besides, I heard that he was the one who came up with the idea for the signature dish, but the one who really made the dishes and did it perfectly is Chef Yang.
If not for Chef Yang, who knows about him?

You you youre rambling! Youre full of nonsense! Bai Tang was so angry that she was about to explode.
What kind of people were they? Master Yu even benefited from a thief?

Miss, stop talking, Shopkeeper Cui advised.

Bai Tang said angrily, What did I say? Did I not distinguish between right and wrong first? These people are all brainless!


Whos brainless? Do you know how to talk? Another customer spoke.

Bai Tang had angered everyone.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Shopkeeper Cui hurriedly persuaded his young miss to return to the room.

Shopkeeper Cui said earnestly, Aiya, Miss, why lower yourself to their level? Theyre just talking.
In the end, it all depends on the outcome of the competition.

I know! But Im angry! Bai Tang said as she pushed open the window and stuck her head out to take a look.
Dont think that she didnt know that Yan Ruyu was upstairs.
Yan Ruyu had been staring at the Yu familys movements.
Did she not know that Yan Ruyu was waiting to make a joke out of the Yu family?

Before the competition began, many people had already come to congratulate Yan Ruyu and Madam Du.

Yan Ruyu had her own plans.
After the Yan Family was convicted, all the shops under the Yan Familys name were confiscated.
However, they were all returned one after another.
There was no lack of inns and restaurants among them.
If Madam Du won the championship in one go, it would be a good thing for her.

Ill congratulate Madam Du first.
Remember to set up two tables to celebrate!

Of course, of course, Yan Ruyu said with a gentle smile.

Madam Du, are you confident? After everyone left, Yan Ruyu asked Madam Du softly.

Madam Du nodded and said, Ive worked hard for this day.
Ill definitely win.

Yan Ruyu smiled and asked, Madam Du, do you still care so much about a mere competition despite your reputation?

Madam Du said, The person I won was none other than myself.
I want to prove to Master that Im qualified to inherit his mantle.

Master Chef Baos mantle!

Thats right, Chef Baos son had gone missing.
After years of fruitless searching, he was already old and would probably not be able to reunite with his son for the rest of his life.
Someone had to inherit his mantle, and as his most proud disciple, Madam Du was the best candidate.

Yan Ruyu was so happy that she was about to bloom.
She had invited Madam Du, but she had earned the mantle of Chef Bao.
How lucky was she?

Madam Du looked at her hands.
Master has always been dissatisfied with my culinary skills, but now, I believe he will change his mind.

As the competition approached, in order to express her high regard for Madam Du, Yan Ruyu personally sent her downstairs.
When she left the back door of the hall, she bumped into Yu Wan and Yu Feng, who were heading to the competition venue.

After competing for two days, the siblings already recognized Madam Du.
As for Yan Ruyu, they were old acquaintances.

Madam Du was holding an exquisite blue and white porcelain container in her hand.
It must have been filled with her secret sauce, rose brine.
Even the jar was unbelievably exquisite.
It was truly filled with the nobility of the upper-class.
Compared to this, the earthen jar in Yu Wans arms seemed especially unpresentable.

Yan Ruyu held back her laughter and glanced at Yu Wan.
What good ingredients did Miss Yu prepare?

Yu Wan said indifferently, Theres no harm in telling you.
Have you eaten bean curd?

Yan Ruyu had naturally never eaten it before, but she sensitively noticed Madam Du beside her and frowned slightly.
Could it be that even the confident Madam Du was afraid of this bean curd?

Yan Ruyu remembered something.
At Old Mrs.
Weis birthday banquet, Aunt Lin placed the Yu familys stinky tofu on Madam Dus table.
After Madam Du tasted it, she only said those words, I cant do it.


There was actually a dish that Madam Du could not make in this world.

Coincidentally, at this moment, two waiters carried the table over.
The two of them did not notice Yu Wan, who was by the door.

Yu Wan walked out.

Miss Yu! Yan Ruyu called out to her.

What do you want again? As soon as she finished speaking, the waiters bumped into Yu Wan and knocked down the jar in her arms.
The bean curd scattered all over the ground, and an indescribable stench immediately filled the air.

Sorry, sorry! The waiter hurriedly apologized.
Halfway through, he pinched his nose.
Oh my god! Whats so smelly!

The surrounding people were all affected by the stench.
After all, there were only a few people who had eaten stinky tofu before.
Most of them did not recognize what fermented bean curd was, and all of them revealed disgusted expressions.

Yan Ruyu covered the tip of her nose with a handkerchief and said mockingly, Miss Yu, just say it if you dont have any ingredients.
Tell me, Ill prepare one for you.
Why take out smelly things to cook? Its fine if you lose the competition, but its not right for the imperial chefs to eat this.

Yu Wan looked at her coldly.
You did it on purpose?

I didnt knock it over, Yan Ruyu said in surprise.

Im sorry! Its me, its me The waiter hurriedly apologized, but he retched from the smell.

Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor.
It was the shop assistant who did it.
How can you blame her?

Thats right.
Shes too unreasonable.

Everyone started to criticize Yu Wan.
Yu Feng frowned tightly.

Lets go, Madam Du said.

The only person who was not affected was probably her, because she understood that it was a good thing.
If she lost it, the Yu family would definitely lose to her.

Yan Ruyu smiled smugly at Yu Wan and left with Madam Du.
The moment she crossed the threshold, Yu Wan quietly stretched out a foot and tripped Yan Ruyu.
No one saw how Yan Ruyu fell.
They only knew that Yan Ruyu was holding onto Madam Du.
When she fell, she also pulled Madam Du down in a hurry.

The blue and white porcelain in Madam Dus hand shattered, and the fragrant rose brine flowed all over the ground.

My rose brine! Madam Du screamed.

Yan Ruyus expression changed drastically.
She turned around resentfully and glared fiercely at Yu Wan.

Yu Wan spread her hands and returned the words to her.
I didnt knock it over.
