Cao Zhang came out of the kitchen and saw that it was Cao Qing.

Although he has high combat skills

But since childhood, besides his eldest brother Cao Ang, Cao Qing has been the second person he fears the most.

"Ziwen?"

"Here I am! I didn't fight! I was just exchanging cooking tips with this old man... oh no, this master chef!"

Cao Zhang had an extremely strong will to survive.

"A friendly spar?"

Cao Qing pointed at Han Sui.

"They've been fighting in Xiliang their whole lives, and you won't even let them have a break."

"You think the meat is too thin? That's for hot pot!"

"You want to eat a whole lamb? Fine, go to the stable in the backyard, there are raw ones there, go and gnaw on them! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

"Sis... I was wrong. I'll eat the thinner slices; they're easier to digest."

OK OK.

(Triple kill).

They almost destroyed the Cao family's troublemaking gang that Shenwei had just dealt with.

Nowadays, people have to honestly pay up, queue up, and find a seat.

The audience was silent.

Everyone was looking at Cao Qing with an almost worshipful gaze.

Is this the intimidating presence of the boss?

So cool!

I love it so much!

Ding Yi, standing to the side

My eyes are full of bubbles now.

I just felt my heart racing.

"It's...too perfect..."

"Even the way he curses is so articulate and melodious... This must be my destiny!"

Even Zhao Yu couldn't help but say to Cao Jie, who was standing next to him,

"Look at your older sister, how impressive she is. When will you be able to be like her?"

Cao Jie: "???"

Cao Jie was looking at her older sister with a face full of admiration.

"Who...who said I can't do it anymore!"

Cao Jie snorted defiantly.

He imitated Cao Qing, trying hard to put on a stern face, hands on his hips.

He tried to force a fierce expression to shut Zhao Yu up.

"I can be terrifying when I'm angry! Aren't you scared?!"

Zhao Yu used to find it somewhat interesting.

Now I just feel like a little kitten with its fur standing on end, threatening someone to hand over dried fish.

Completely unrelated, and utterly harmless.

"Alright, alright, stop using your supernatural powers."

Now let's look at Ding Yi.

That's a real simp.

Zhao Yu couldn't help but kick him.

"Wake up! You're drooling!"

At this moment, Cao Qing, having finished suppressing his younger brothers, walked straight to the counter.

Zhao Yu also became a "lackey," rubbing his hands together as he went to greet him:

"Young Miss's divine might! I am utterly awestruck! If it weren't for you today, this shop would probably have been torn down!"

Don't give me that.

Cao Qing threw the account book onto the counter.

He straightened his cuffs.

"Zhao Yu, don't think I'm helping you."

"This shop is named after the Prime Minister's residence and uses my father's prestige."

Even the pig brains were sold under the name of my Cao family.

If things go wrong, it will be the Cao family that loses face.

At this point, she leaned forward slightly and lowered her voice.

"Also, I don't trust you, you unscrupulous businessman. From today onwards, I will be in charge of Shenwei's accounts."

"Um... Miss, our business is just a small operation..."

"Um?"

Cao Qing raised an eyebrow.

"You want to refuse?"

"Do you believe I can make them come every day?"

"Welcome! A warm welcome!"

"The accounts from Shenwei Restaurant are prepared just for you! Hey you, Ding Yi! What are you standing there for? Serve our manager some tea!"

With Cao Qing in charge at the counter,

Shenwei Lao officially opened for business.

"Holy crap! This broth is amazing!"

"Ouch—ha—! Spicy! So spicy! But I can't stop!"

"Waiter! Another plate of 'Snowflakes Over the Prairie'!"

"This dipping sauce is amazing! What's in it? Crushed peanuts? Beans?"

These were the first time the burly, local men had encountered this kind of strongly flavored hot pot.

I was instantly hooked.

Even Cao Pi, who was just sulking,

I don't care about my image anymore.

He took off his outer robe, put one foot on the stool, and was sweating profusely as he rinsed the lamb tripe.

"Seven up, eight down... Zhao Yu's mnemonic really works!"

"Delicious! Zhengli, go get me two more plates of meat!"

Cao Zhi was so drunk that he no longer cared about the white walls.

Tapping the rim of the bowl with chopsticks, singing loudly:

"The ospreys cry 'guan guan' on the river's islet..."

Cao Zhang, as he had hoped, was facing a large bowl of sliced ​​meat.

Han Sui came out; this fellow ate too fast.

He stood to the side, his face dark with rage, frantically chopping meat.

He could barely keep up with Cao Zhang's eating speed.

"Delicious! This is even better than roast whole lamb!"

He didn't forget to give Han Sui a thumbs up.

"Old man, your swordsmanship is quite good! Teach me next time!"

Shenwei has won its first battle.

There was a little incident during that time.

In the afternoon, at the end of the line.

A furtive figure appeared.

This person was wearing a tattered straw hat.

It was pressed very low.

It covered most of her face.

He was wearing a patched linen garment to avoid being recognized.

Clutching a string of copper coins in his hand,

Try to make yourself look like a down-on-his-luck merchant.

It was Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu was conflicted at this moment.

As elites of a prominent family.

He should have been at home, resting and recovering.

But he had also heard about how popular it was here.

I simply couldn't contain myself.

"I didn't come here to eat."

Yang Xiu frantically hypnotized himself in his mind.

"I'm here to criticize!"

"I'm here to gather evidence of Zhao Yu's corruption of the Han people! This is what you call... knowing yourself and your enemy!"

The line moved slowly, inching forward.

Finally, he moved to the doorway.

"Next."

Behind the big-headed doll mask,

Then came Ma Teng's voice.

"Big...big guy, I'm a peddler from Hebei. I want to go in and get something hot to eat..."

As he spoke, he handed over the copper coins, attempting to bluff his way through.

Ma Teng did not accept the money.

The big-headed baby face slowly approached.

It was close to Yang Xiu's nose.

Ma Teng's nose twitched twice.

"This smell..."

Why do you smell like our restaurant's pig brain soup?

Yang Xiu was shocked. He could still smell the pig brain soup that he had thrown on the ground that day.

"I...I didn't..."

Yang Xiu tried to argue his point.

"Still pretending?"

"The smell of pig brain soup on you is from the soup I made for Yang Xiu."

As Ma Teng spoke, he lifted Yang Xiu's bamboo hat.

Who else could it be but Yang Xiu?

"Ouch!"

"Hey? Isn't this Registrar Yang?"

"Holy crap! Why is he dressed like that?"

Yang Xiu covered his face with his sleeve and turned to run away.

"You've mistaken me for someone else! You've mistaken me for someone else!"

"run?"

A large hand had already gripped Yang Xiu's shoulder.

"Registration Officer Yang, since you're here, make the best of it."

Ma Teng pointed to the area that had been specially designated at the entrance.

[Dedicated lane for learner card holders].

"Manager Zhao gave instructions,"

"Registrar Yang possesses a 'Study Card' personally bestowed by the Prime Minister, making him a... Supreme VIP of this establishment."

Once you complete the "initiation ceremony," you not only skip the queue, but you also get a free serving of pig brains.

"I won't eat! Let me go! I want to go home!"

Yang Xiu struggled desperately.

But in the hands of the fierce generals of Xiliang, his strength was less than a tickle.

"Want to come in? Sure."

"Recite the entire text."

"Wh...what, the full text?"

"The Prime Minister issued the 'Six Requirements of the Jian'an New Regulations'."

"If you mispronounce a single word, I'll yell at you. You're not allowed to leave until you've finished reciting it."

More and more onlookers gathered around.

"Registrar Yang, give me one!"

"Young Master Yang, memorizing is one of your strengths!"

"Quickly memorize it! We also want to hear about the Prime Minister's new regulations."

He won't memorize it today.

It seems we can't get out of this place.

"From now on, all official documents must adhere to the following: Who? Where? What? Why? When? How? The word count must not exceed two hundred words."

Ma Teng blinked behind the mask.

Some didn't react in time.

The original script was for him to humiliate Yang Xiu.

Why does this feel like a solo concert?

Yang Xiu had no idea what he had just done; he only felt as if his soul had been emptied out.

but,

Rules are rules.

"Recitation passed. Registrar Yang, please come in."

Then, Ma Teng yelled at the waiter in the lobby who was in charge of announcing the menu:

"Distinguished guest! Registrar Yang has arrived! Serving you a complimentary 'Extra-Large Top Scholar's Brain'! Extra spicy!"

His shout was heard throughout the entire street.

Yang Xiu covered his face.

Under the watchful eyes of the entire audience,

They rushed into Shenwei.

He deliberately found a seat in the very corner.

He tried to hide himself.

But he soon discovered that it was completely useless.

Because the waiter who served the dishes was none other than Zhao Yu.

"eat."

"Leaving only one bite would be disrespectful to the Prime Minister."

"you."

Yang Xiu picked up the spoon.

One bite.

That numbing sensation, that spiciness, that fresh aroma.

The social death just now, the humiliation just now,

"It smells so good... Zhao Yu... I hate you... but this stuff... smells so good..."
