Chapter 167 - 167 164 Doing Business with Gao Da
?Chapter 167: Chapter 164: Doing Business with Gao Da Chapter 167: Chapter 164: Doing Business with Gao Da No one was to be seen when calling for help, but by the time dinner was served, Father Lu and Uncle had both returned, except Jiang Nanzhou came a bit later.
Aunt deliberately waited until almost seven o’clock to accommodate his schedule before she took the pot off the stove.
The lamb had stewed in the pot for three to four hours and was soft and tender when taken out, and the pot was full of lamb meat.
Aunt regretted, “It’s a pity that we don’t have lamb bones and offal. If we had these two things, the lamb soup would be even tastier.”
In front of her family, Jiang Nanzhou was quite the smooth talker, hurriedly praising, “Aunt’s lamb soup tastes better than that of any other state-owned restaurant.”
Lu Jingqiu, hearing this, lowered her head and stifled a smile. The craftsmanship of the chef at the state-owned restaurant they had eaten at near the new house the other day was indeed better than Aunt’s.
Ha, the truth was, that chef was genuinely superior, and one mustn’t insincerely deny it; however, Aunt’s cooking skills were also quite remarkable among the various restaurants in the city.
“Aunt, does your state-owned restaurant hold a chef competition every year? When is it this year?”
“It’s every autumn when the vegetables and grains are all harvested. Last year, I took second place. They gave me two enamel cups.” Zhou Lanqin couldn’t help but laugh when she mentioned the competition. She had worked in the state-owned restaurant for twenty years and had been a head chef for more than a decade. She had already achieved the highest rating long ago and now participated in the competition merely as an exemplar for the younger chefs; she didn’t compete every year.
