Li Luotang led the Sai Xi Shi to the end of the team, and the man in front said, "Young Master, if you want to eat, just go into the store directly. We are all cooks. Master Miaoshen holds a cooking competition and recruits closed disciples. Even if you can't become closed disciples, as long as you are in the top ten, you will have at least ten taels of silver."

"Master Miaoshen recruits closed disciples!" Li Luotang looked back at Sai Xishi happily, "Shi Shi, you can participate in the cooking competition and be the closed disciple of Master Miaoshen."

Sai Xishi nodded happily.

The chef in front looked a little ugly, and another competitor came. Fortunately, he was just a little girl, so he was not afraid of it.

While talking, several more people came lined up.

The cooking competition was officially held three days later. Now it is registration, and it is Sai Xishi's turn soon. The guy at Miaochen asked: "What's the name? How old is it? Where is the man from? How many years have you learned cooking? Who did you learn cooking skills?"

"My name is Sai Xishi. I am twelve years old. I have been studying cooking for seven years. I learned cooking skills from my father." Sai Xishi replied.

The guy wrote these on paper, then took out a wooden sign engraved with "Five Ninth" and handed them to Sai Xishi. "On April 2, Chen Shichu arrived at Peng Zutang in the city. If you don't have time, you can bring your own knives."

"I know, I won't be late." Saisishi said seriously.

"Let's go, Shishi, let's go in for lunch." Li Luotang smiled.

Miaochen Restaurant has three floors. Except for the private rooms on the third floor, you need to book a reservation, and dine-in on the first and second floors. Li Luotang asked for a table on the second floor, but Li Luotang did not accept the menu handed over by the clerk, but said directly: "If you go to the signature dishes in the three shops, you need two meat and one dish."

The guy didn't dislike Li Luotang because he ordered only three dishes. He still smiled and said, "Young master, Huadiao braised tenderloin, Babao wild duck meat and fried cabbage, do you think it's okay?"

"Yes, serve the food quickly." Li Luotang smiled.

"Please wait, and the food will be served immediately." The guy left quickly.

Sai Xishi took the pot and poured tea and said, "This shop uses fried cabbage as its signature dish, and this dish must be extraordinary."

Fried cabbage is the simplest and most common home-cooked dish. Basically everyone can do it. Even Li Luotang can do it. Of course, she can't tell if it was originally cabbage.

Li Luotang suddenly sighed, and Sai Xishi asked with concern: "What's wrong with Sister Li?"

"Why is no one causing trouble?" Li Luotang's hands itched and hadn't taught anyone a lesson for several days.

Sai Xishi's mouth opened slightly, not knowing how to answer the conversation.

After a while, three dishes were served, all of which were filled with exquisite white background and blue flower bowls, Huadiao wine stewed meat, Babao wild duck meat and fried cabbage. Both of them all reached out to pick up the fried cabbage.

"This fragrance can make people salivate." Li Luotang smelled the smell.

Sai Xishi had stuffed the dish into his mouth, and a strong spicy smell echoed in his mouth. After chewing it for a few bites, he felt the original crispness, freshness and tenderness of the cabbage, and a hint of sweetness.

"It's delicious, this stir-fried cabbage is really delicious." Sai Xishi picked up another chopstick to eat.

"Even cabbage can be fried so delicious, the tenderloin and wild duck meat must also taste very delicious." Li Luotang prefers some meat, so although the cabbage is delicious, it is not her favorite.

Sai Xishi tasted the tenderloin and wild duck meat and continued to eat fried cabbage. The tenderloin tasted very good, and the wild duck meat was oily but not greasy. But she remembered what her father said, it was not the complicated meals that test the cooking skills, but the simplest home-cooked side dishes.

"This stir-fried cabbage is just right on the heat, which not only cuts off the rawness and tastes, but also keeps the original crispness of the cabbage." Sai Xishi said with an aftertaste.

Li Luotang was gnawing on the legs of a wild duck and had no time to speak.

After lunch, I left Miaochen Restaurant. On the way back, I finally encountered something that made Li Luotang do heroic and righteous.

Several men dragged a young woman to cry and walked by. Behind them was a man in a big red brocade suit and a fat face. Next to him, there were two middle-aged men and women crying in darkness and wearing patched clothes.

The two were begging him, "Master Pan, we will definitely pay back the money. Please give me a few days to give me grace. Please don't arrest my daughter to pay off the debt."

"Get out of here, the poor guys." The man in red kicked them away and cursed.

The two were kicked away, rushed over and continued to beg: "Master Pan, Master Pan."

"Oh, borrowing money from the Pan family is to seek flirting with the tiger." A passerby shook his head and sighed.

"Another poor girl is going to be ruined." Another passerby responded.

"Is there any king's law? How can he let him do whatever he wants?" A man who seemed to be out of town.

"Wang Fa? Haha, his uncle is a high-ranking official in the court." A passerby said in a low voice.

"Officials protect each other, and he is in this city, so he can be lawless." Passersby said dissatisfied.

The mature man next to him immediately said, "Shh, stop talking, be careful to cause trouble."

Everyone looked frightened and stopped listening to his advice.

Li Luotang heard it clearly, his face slightly cold. Why did Mr. Pan have been causing trouble for many years? She had to punish evil and eliminate evil. Li Luotang walked out and stopped them, "Let this girl go."

Mr. Pan, who was used to being arrogant, was stunned for a moment. There was still someone in the city who dared to care about him. He looked closely and said, "You want me to let her go. Yes, you have to go back with me."

The onlookers showed sympathy. This kind of righteous behavior is worthy of admiration, but when they meet Mr. Pan, the young master is afraid that he will suffer. Sai Xishi is not worried. She believes in Li Luotang.

When Li Luotang heard this, he chuckled, without saying much nonsense, and took action directly, knocking the strong men holding the girl to the ground, and then looked at Mr. Pan, "What did you say just now?"

Mr. Pan swallowed his saliva and said, "This young man, it is natural to pay back the debt. They can't afford to pay it back, so I can only use their daughter to pay it off."

This seemed to make sense. Li Luotang raised his eyebrows, "How much money do they owe you? I'll pay it back for them."

"One hundred taels." Mr. Pan said.

The couple said cryingly: "Five liang, I borrowed five liang."

It’s not so outrageous if you borrow five taels and pay one hundred taels, but it’s not so outrageous if you give nine taels and return thirteen! This person with the surname Pan is really cruel. Such a ruthless person cannot kill him in one go.

Li Luotang's eyebrows moved slightly, and his mind was determined, "One hundred taels, I'll give it to you, I'll bring the IOU."

"IOU is at home." Mr. Pan was so arrogant that he still wanted to trick Li Luotang into the mansion and let the masters in the mansion catch her.

"Do you want to be like them?" Li Luotang asked coldly.

Mr. Pan looked at his subordinates who were lying on the ground and couldn't get up. He laughed dryly and had to take out the IOU; Li Luotang said, "Give them the IOU."

Mr. Pan helplessly gave the IOU to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man opened the IOU with trembling hands. He didn't know much to read, and he couldn't even write his own name, but he knew these four words, and he also had his bright red fingerprints on the paper.

This middle-aged man is smart. As soon as he got the IOU, he pulled his wife, helped his daughter up, and ran to Li Luotang. "My benefactor, this is my IOU."

Li Luotang smiled, took out the silver notes, pulled out a hundred-degree piece from it, and handed it to the big man lying on the ground moaning, "Go and hand it over to your master." After saying that, he raised his leg and kicked the big man with a clever force to kick Mr. Pan.

Mr. Pan's face turned pale. He was definitely a master.

"Take your men out, get out." Li Luotang shouted sternly.

"Yes, yes." Mr. Pan still cared about his subordinates, so he ran away, fearing that he would slow down, so Li Luotang kept him.
