Tiexian heirs in the city

Jixiang Xiaozhu finally opened, and Ma Beifeng waited for those people who were at the front of the queue to enter first.

"Tie Chef, good afternoon!"

"Today we came to see the fun, Tie Chef don't let us down!"

"Tie Chef, I like you!"

Gu Zheng was in the hall of Jixiang Xiaozhu, and everyone saw him as soon as they entered the hall, so they greeted him one after another.

"I really admire Tiechu's culinary skills, but what you should do well is what a cook should do."

Compared to the enthusiastic voices of the crowd, an old voice was unfriendly.

The person who spoke was an old man with a white beard. He was Doctor Niu in Qingfeng City. Money matters.

Doctor Niu is also a frequent visitor of Jixiang Xiaozhu. When he was outside, someone asked him if he came to watch the fun today, but he obviously didn't want to say anything to others, he just said that he came to Jixiang Xiaozhu for dinner. However, what he said at this time has clearly made people hear that his visit to Jixiang Xiaozhu today is not as simple as eating.

Doctor Niu met Gu Zheng before, and talked to him a few times, but during those few conversations, Doctor Niu behaved no differently from ordinary diners, all with respect, but today he looks like this, Gu Zheng naturally knew what was going on. After all, Doctor Niu once treated Ma Xiaolian and received a lot of money, but he failed to cure Ma Xiaolian. This time, Gu Zheng wants to treat Ma Xiaolian's illness, not to mention whether it can be cured, at least Gu Zheng needs to pay at least 30 taels of silver. Let the city lord treat the people of Qingfeng City better, let him compare with Doctor Niu The verdict, which naturally made Doctor Niu feel a little uncomfortable.

When Dr. Niu came to Jixiang Xiaozhuwai today, Gu Zheng already knew it. He also thought that Dr. Niu would be unkind, but he didn't want to be as knowledgeable as Dr. Niu. As long as Dr. Niu is not too much, he won't say much . However, Doctor Niu was too much, at least the 'cook' he said was full of irony.

"Since Doctor Niu admires my cooking skills, then you can wait to admire my medical skills!"

Doctor Niu didn't expect Gu Zheng to say that. He thought Gu Zheng would be angry or humble, but he would make such a plain publicity.

"Okay, the old man will just wait and see how good Tiechu's cooking skills are!"

Doctor Niu seemed somewhat angry. After saying something to Gu Zheng, he waved to Xiao Er: "Come, order!"

Doctor Niu actually wanted to order dishes that Gu Zheng had to cook himself, but he didn’t dare to provoke public outrage. Let’s not say that Ma Beifeng is the city lord, but when he was waiting outside, the diners had already agreed. The people who entered Jixiang Xiaozhu together with Ma Beifeng didn't order any dishes that Gu Zheng had to cook in person this time, the purpose was to see Gu Zheng treat Ma Xiaolian quickly.

After Doctor Niu ordered, the rest of the diners also ordered, without exception, no one ordered Gu Zheng to cook himself.

"Since you don't order my dishes and want me to treat people first, then I'll cook right now, everyone wait a moment."

Gu Zheng smiled and said something to everyone, then turned and returned to the back kitchen.

"Sir, why is Doctor Niu so annoying?"

Lingzhu, who had been by Gu Zheng's side all the time, transmitted voice to him.

"It's not surprising that he is like this." Gu Zheng said via voice transmission.

"Sir, do you need me to clean him up?" Lingzhu asked.

"No need, he's just a mortal, as long as he doesn't make trouble, I don't bother to know him." Gu Zheng said indifferently.

Gu Zheng has returned to the back kitchen, and the doctor Niu here is getting more and more uncomfortable.

"My lord, do you think Chef Tie can really cure Ling Ai?"

Doctor Niu joined Ma Beifeng's table.

"Whether it can cure the little girl's disease or not, it will be clear if you try it."

For Dr. Niu, Ma Beifeng didn't have a good impression of him. When he asked him to see a doctor for Ma Xiaolian, he received a lot of money, not to mention his illness.

"Doctor Niu, are you a little scared, afraid that Tiechu will cure my little girl's illness?"

Li Susu is not like Ma Beifeng, who can still maintain a certain demeanor towards Doctor Niu, and her words at this time are full of sarcasm.

"The old man is afraid? How is it possible!"

Doctor Niu smiled sternly, he was indeed afraid that Gu Zheng would cure Ma Xiaolian, if Gu Zheng really cured Ma Xiaolian, then his face would be slapped a bit.

"The old man just thinks that Ling Ai's illness is very strange, and entrusting it to a cook for treatment may make her illness worse." Doctor Niu whispered.

"It doesn't matter who it is, as long as it can cure my daughter's illness, it has nothing to do with status. Doctor Niu is a famous genius doctor in Qingfeng City, but we spent a lot of money on you, my daughter's illness It's not that there is no improvement." Li Susu said coldly.

"The madam of the city lord is wrong. The genius doctor is called by someone else. I have always thought that I am just an ordinary doctor. Regarding Ling Ai's illness, I have tried my best. Although I couldn't cure Ling Ai, I didn't let Ling Ai. The disease is more serious, isn't it?"

"you,"

Li Susu gritted her teeth, how could she not know what Doctor Niu was thinking? She thought she would sneer a few words, and if Doctor Niu wanted to show his face, she would not say anything more, but she never thought that this person was so brazen.

"Okay, Doctor Niu, please go back to your seat! Since we have hired Tiechu to treat the little girl, I think basic respect should be given to others, right? If we ask you to treat the little girl , Another person said behind your back that you can't do it, how would you feel in your heart?"

Ma Beifeng's face became serious, although he didn't put on airs of the city lord, but since he was impatient at this time, even if Doctor Niu wanted to say something, he could only swallow it back.

"Okay then! This old man also hopes that Ling Ai can really recover, and that Tiechu can really cure illnesses."

Doctor Niu deleted a sentence, and then returned to his seat.

Although Doctor Niu kept his voice down as much as possible when he spoke to the castellan's family, what he said was still heard by the rest of the diners so much that when he returned to his original seat, the people at the table with him The eyes of those diners became a little dodgy. Obviously, these diners were somewhat disdainful of his actions, but due to his status as a doctor, he didn't want to say anything clearly.

Ma Beifeng and the others didn't have to wait too long, and Gu Zheng quickly brought up the diet.

The diet therapy for Ma Xiaolian was actually very time-consuming, but Gu Zheng cooked some ingredients that needed to be boiled, so it was able to be done so quickly today.

The finished food therapy is placed in a soup basin with a lid on it. Although everyone is very curious about what the food therapy is for Ma Xiaolian, but Ma Xiaolian doesn't lift the lid, they can only look helplessly look at.

Facing the soup bowl in front of her, Ma Xiaolian was clearly resisting. In order to cure her illness, she did not know how many weird medicines she had taken. Moreover, due to a problem with her taste buds, she can taste strange even when she eats delicious food. If she takes medicine, the taste will become even weirder! Although Gu Zheng had said before that what he made was called diet therapy, but in Ma Xiaolian's heart, diet therapy was also medicine.

"Open it and see what it is."

Looking at the hesitant daughter, Ma Beifeng smiled and said something.

Mustering up her courage, Ma Xiaolian finally lifted the lid of the soup pot, and the things inside were not as ugly as herbal medicines as she had imagined.

"Hey, what is this? Chicken soup?"

"Have you ever seen a chicken like that? It must be a bird."

"It looks pretty good, and it smells delicious. Is this food or medicine?"

The diners all came closer to watch, and couldn't help expressing their doubts.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Just when everyone wanted to ask Gu Zheng what was stewed in the soup, Doctor Niu suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Gu Zheng looked at Doctor Niu.

"The old man is laughing at the culinary skills, but he is very daring in treating diseases!"

Doctor Niu smiled coldly, then looked at the crowd and said, "Do you know what the name of this stuff that Tiechu cooks is called?"

No one answered Dr. Niu's words, but everyone was looking forward to it. This kind of reaction was enough for Dr. Niu. He said triumphantly, "This kind of thing is called 'corpse poison'. Lumpy graveyards, the ghost birds that absorb the yin energy of the graveyard, are rarely seen because they only appear at night. The old man knows that the corpse poison is poisonous. Be dumb, or die!"

Doctor Niu’s words frightened people a lot, because the stew in the soup was really ugly, it had a black-blue skin, and at first glance it looked somewhat similar to a black-bone chicken, but now after hearing what Doctor Niu said, Immediately felt a little nauseous.

Doctor Niu was very satisfied with everyone's frowning reactions, he looked at Gu Zheng and said, "Chef Tie, you use corpse poison to make soup for the city lord's beloved daughter, I don't know what kind of weird folk recipe this is, or is it the so-called fighting poison with poison? "

Seeing Doctor Niu's mocking face, Gu Zheng frowned: "Doctor Niu, as a doctor, don't you know that you can't talk nonsense?"

"Of course the old man knows not to talk nonsense, and it will embarrass you if you say it, but this is a matter of life and death. Now that the old man has seen it, how can he not say it? You stew soup with corpse poison for the city lord's beloved daughter, Have you thought about the consequences?" Doctor Niu sneered.

"hehe."

Gu Zheng also laughed: "Indeed, there are birds like Shizhen in this world, but I don't know if Doctor Niu has seen Shizhen with his own eyes, or has he heard about this kind of bird?"

"The old man has the classics handed down by his ancestors, and the pattern of this ghost bird is painted on it, so there is absolutely no mistake!"

Doctor Niu is very sure, he is not lying about this, his family does have an ancient book, and there is indeed a picture of a corpse poison on it, it really looks exactly like the stuff that Gu Zheng stewed.

"This thing is not called a corpse poison, it's called 'Weak Water Jackdaw', and it's not poisonous, it's just that the medicine is cooler."

Gu Zheng paused, looked at Doctor Niu and said, "You failed to cure the disease of the city lord's beloved daughter, so after knowing that I want to treat the city lord's beloved daughter, I felt very uncomfortable. I can understand this, so you I didn't take some of today's doubts and ridicules to heart. But just because I have a good temper doesn't mean I'm easy to talk, now I ask you to leave Jixiang Xiaozhu, and don't come to my place for dinner again, I don't welcome you here!"

"What's the matter with Tiechu? Are you going to chase someone out in a hurry?" Doctor Niu laughed.

"It's also for your own good to drive you away, so that you don't have to be particularly ashamed. If you really don't want to leave, then you can stay! After the city lord's beloved daughter tastes it, she will know that this thing is what you said. , or the Weak Water Jackdaw I said." Gu Zheng laughed.

Doctor Niu was very sure that what Gu Zheng stewed was corpse poison, but at this time, Gu Zheng still seemed so sure, which made him wonder if he really admitted the wrong thing. However, there is no turning back when the bow is opened. If you admit cowardly at this time, you will really lose your face.

"City Lord, do you really dare to let your beloved daughter try this thing? If something really goes wrong, it's too late to regret it!"

"Doctor Niu, I think you can shut up, I have never seen such a shameless person like you!"

Just as Doctor Niu’s voice fell, Li Susu had already said it directly. She was really blown away by Doctor Niu. She believed her feelings very much. It was her feeling that guided her to find Gu Zheng. Doctor Niu questioned Gu Zheng so much. Also questioning her feelings.

"Really, just eat your food, why are there so many things!"

"That's right! You didn't cure people. Now that Tiechu is treating people, it's really annoying for you to say such things over and over again!"

"Shut up! No one wants to hear what you have to say!"

In the end, some diners couldn't stand Doctor Niu, and they also opened their mouths.

"Well, I'm old and meddlesome, I want to see how it turns out!"

Doctor Niu shrugged, gritted his teeth secretly and returned to his seat.

"Daughter, eat while it's hot."

The annoying doctor Niu finally left, Li Susu smiled and spoke to Ma Xiaolian.

"Mom, I'm afraid!"

Ma Xiaolian was really scared, it was all caused by Doctor Niu.

"Don't be afraid, this is not poison."

Gu Zheng smiled at Ma Xiaolian. After seeing his eyes, Ma Xiaolian's original fear disappeared. He picked up the chopsticks and touched the Weak Water Jackdaw in the soup basin.

The Weak Water Jackdaw originally looked very complete, but when Ma Xiaolian touched it with chopsticks, it became a divided block. This was the work that Gu Zheng had done before, and he could not let Ma Xiaolian take it. A whole weak water jackdaw came to gnaw.

For Gu Zheng, it was easy to do this, but in the eyes of the diners, it was a spectacle. For a while, everyone praised Gu Zheng's knife skills.

Ma Xiaolian picked up a piece of weak-water jackdaw's meat and put it into her mouth, closing her eyes and chewing with a frown as if taking medicine.

However, the meat of the Weak Water Jackdaw looked ugly, but it was not as bad as Ma Xiaolian imagined, which made Ma Xiaolian's frown relax.

Seeing the change on her daughter's face, Li Susu said happily, "Daughter, do you have an appetite?"

"No, it's just that it's not as bad as imagined." Ma Xiaolian said.

"Quick, eat more." Ma Beifeng said.

"Do you want to eat all of this?"

Ma Xiaolian looked at Gu Zheng, her voice was soft and weak. The look in Gu Zheng's eyes just now gave her courage not to be afraid, and at the same time made her feel that Gu Zheng is not a bad person. If Gu Zheng told her to finish eating, she would not be afraid. Even if you pinch your nose, you will definitely eat the whole pot.

"Yes, neither meat nor soup can be kept." Gu Zheng smiled.

Ma Xiaolian nodded, as if mustering up a lot of courage, she picked up a piece of meat from a Weak Water Jackdaw and put it in her mouth again.

This time Ma Xiaolian still kept her eyes closed, but her brows were not furrowed. After the Weak Water Jackdaw chewed the meat a few times, her eyes suddenly opened wide, and the speed of chewing became faster.

"How do you feel, daughter?"

Seeing that Ma Xiaolian had swallowed the meat in her mouth, Li Susu hurriedly asked.

"It feels okay, it seems to be a little better than the first piece I ate!"

What Ma Xiaolian said, seemed to be nothing to the ears of ordinary diners, it was just a little tastier than the first piece. However, the diners don't know Ma Xiaolian well, they don't know how rare the 'delicious' Ma Xiaolian said! Under normal circumstances, Ma Xiaolian didn't have the word 'delicious' in her mouth. If her words were really understood by the diners, then she would only say that the second piece of meat was better than the first one, not delicious!

"Quick, keep eating!"

This time, without waiting for Li Susu's urging, Ma Xiaolian had already picked up the third piece of Weak Water Jackdaw's meat and put it into her mouth.

However, this time, Ma Xiaolian's reaction was a little dull. When Li Susu asked, she felt that the third piece of meat seemed to be no different from the second piece of meat. The feeling of eating has decreased as if fatigued.

Faced with this situation, the hearts of the diners were touched. They also wanted Ma Xiaolian to be good, and Gu Zheng to create miracles, but what they heard was Doctor Niu's slightly smug laughter.

"Now drink two spoonfuls of soup again." Gu Zheng said.

Ma Xiaolian nodded, picked up the spoon very obediently, scooped up a spoonful of broth and drank it.

After drinking the first spoonful of broth, Ma Xiaolian's expression was calm, but when she drank the second spoonful of broth, her eyes lit up.

"How do you feel, daughter?"

His heart was fluctuating with his daughter's reaction. This time the person who asked the question was Ma Beifeng, who was relatively calm, and he couldn't be calm at this time.

"Delicious!"

Ma Xiaolian said something hastily, and wanted to drink the third spoonful of soup, but Gu Zheng said again at this time: "Keep the third spoonful of soup in your mouth and don't swallow it until your mouth is so sore and numb that you can't stand it, and then eat it again." Swallow the soup, and do the same with the fourth and fifth spoonfuls after that."

Ma Xiaolian was very obedient. After putting the third spoonful of soup into her mouth, she immediately held her mouth still.

"Husband!"

Li Susu was already weeping with joy, but Ma Xiaolian's resolute 'delicious' just now made her wonder if she heard it wrong.

"Very good!"

Ma Beifeng was also excited, he held Li Susu's hand, his eyes were slightly red.

"It seems that the word 'delicious' should be an extremely rare evaluation from the daughter of the city lord!"

"That's right, it must be like this. You can see that the city owner and his wife are crying with excitement."

"Tie Chef is really good!"

"Yes! I really didn't expect the effect to appear so quickly. I thought it would take three days!"

Faced with everyone's discussion, Doctor Niu's face felt a little hot, as if a needle had been pricked, but he still didn't give up. He wanted Ma Xiaolian to finish eating the meat and soup.
