After Getting a Divorce, I Continued Being a Miracle Doctor-Chapter 50 - Very Difficult
50 Very Difficult
The ingredients that Jian Xing’er used were mostly medicinal herbs. Every dish required many medicinal herbs as ingredients, and they were all different.
Cooking these dishes seemed simple, but it was very difficult to actually do it.
If one didn’t master the techniques and the combination of medicinal herbs, it was impossible to learn it even if one spent one’s entire life on it.
More than an hour later, Jian Xing’er finished preparing all the dishes.
The aroma filled the entire house.
Shangguan Ding had been craving it since long ago, so he swallowed his saliva countless times already.
The servants outside couldn’t help but look toward the kitchen.
Even the servants couldn’t help but gulp.
Upon smelling this, they knew that Jian Xing’er was cooking today.
At this moment, there were many people gathered outside. They were all attracted by this aroma and they spoke one after another.
“What is this family cooking? It smells so good!”
“That’s right. I’ve eaten many famous chefs’ dishes, but I’ve never smelled anything like this.”
“I reckon that this family must have hired a top chef from overseas. How can we have such a good chef here?”
…
Everyone swallowed hard and could barely suppress the urge to go in and freeload.
This scene was very exaggerated, but it was reality.
Even Jian Xing’er’s master had praised her for surpassing him back then. The dishes she made were the best in the world.
Shangguan Ding was enjoying the food on the table.
As Shangguan Ding ate, he said, “It’s really too delicious! If this were in ancient times, you would definitely be the emperor’s personal chef.”
Jian Xing’er didn’t say anything and continued eating.
These dozen of dishes were nothing to her.
Jian Xing’er was best at cooking “Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea”.
When Jian Xing’er was overseas with her master, she had once displayed her skills and shocked everyone. The Eagle Empress even tried to keep Jian Xing’er in the royal family, but Jian Xing’er refused.
Jian Xing’er said, “I’ve made the dishes. Don’t forget what you promised.”
Shangguan Ding said, “Don’t worry, I’ll get someone to investigate. I’ll definitely give you a result within three days.”
Jian Xing’er didn’t say anything and continued eating.
Shangguan Ding looked at Jian Xing’er as he said, “Why don’t we make a deal?! With your culinary skills and my connections, any restaurant we open will become popular in the entire country, or even the world. At that time, we can have branches in every city. They’ll be even more profitable than banks.”
Jian Xing’er said calmly, “Not interested.”
Shangguan Ding was a little disappointed.
Seeing that Jian Xing’er was eating non-stop, Shangguan Ding immediately said, “Eat slowly. Such good food should be savored bit by bit. Your crude eating method is a waste of these delicacies.”
Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but laugh.
When she ate, she wanted to eat her fill.
This was the first time she had heard that food had to be savored slowly.
After eating her fill, Jian Xing’er left the kitchen.
Shangguan Ding was a little stuffed, so he placed the remaining dishes into the refrigerator and instructed the servants that no one was to touch the refrigerator.
Jian Xing’er’s dishes had completely won over Shangguan Ding.
After Jian Xing’er took a sip of tea, Hou Xiaoyu ran in and shouted, “Sister-in-law…”
Hou Xiaoyu greeted her warmly.
Jian Xing’er said calmly, “Don’t call me that. I’m not your sister-in-law. Your brother and I have already divorced, so I have nothing to do with your family.”
Hou Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed, but she still said sincerely, “Sister-in-law, I know we went overboard back then. I’d like to apologize to you now, so don’t be angry with us.”
Jian Xing’er sneered.
Back then, Hou Xiaoyu didn’t have this attitude at all.
Hou Xiaoyu’s attitude made Jian Xing’er feel very disgusted.
Hou Xiaoyu said helplessly, “I came to look for you to tell you that my brother is sick. It’s very serious. I heard that you can treat illnesses, so I came.”
Hou Junlai fell ill?
Jian Xing’er was stunned.
Although Jian Xing’er was very disappointed in what Hou Junlai had done at that time,
they used to be husband and wife after all, so it was impossible for her to ignore him.
When Shangguan Ding came out and saw Hou Xiaoyu, he said, “Ah, isn’t this the eldest daughter of the Hou family?”
Shangguan Ding walked to the sofa and sat down with a smile.
This smile made Hou Xiaoyu’s legs go weak.
Shangguan Ding looked at Jian Xing’er as he said, “I’ll go with you to see Mr. Hou! No matter what, Mr. Hou is your ex-husband. Although he did something very overboard, it’s all in the past.”
Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you following us?”
Shangguan Ding said, “I’m very curious. I want to see how impressive the Hou family is to chase away a good daughter-in-law like you.”
