Chapter 209 A Manchu Han Imperial Feast? Even a dog would refuse it!
He Yuzhu was "tested" by Lin Fan.
I was both surprised and delighted.
This is the biggest opportunity of his life.
It is also the only chance to change one's destiny.
He began preparations overnight.
All the food in the house was taken out.
He borrowed some more from Qin Huairu.
He wanted to prepare a "Manchu Han Imperial Feast" for Lin Fan.
The next morning, He Yuzhu got busy.
He brought out all his best skills.
Frying, stir-frying, cooking, and deep-frying.
He is proficient in all eighteen martial arts.
He had only one thought in his mind.
The most delicious food must be prepared.
We must make sure Lin Fan is satisfied.
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi, and even Xu Damao, Third Uncle, and Second Uncle.
They were all alerted by He Yuzhu's commotion.
They saw He Yuzhu working busily.
My heart was filled with curiosity.
"Silly Zhu, what are you doing?" Qin Huairu asked.
He Yuzhu had a look of excitement on his face.
"Sister Qin, I'm cooking for Mr. Lin!"
His voice was somewhat high-pitched.
"Mr. Lin said that if my cooking satisfies him, he will take me on as his apprentice!"
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi heard this.
Their expressions changed.
They never expected that He Yuzhu would gain Lin Fan's "appreciation".
Xu Damao, Third Uncle, and Second Uncle heard this.
Jealousy welled up inside me.
He Yuzhu, that "fool".
This opportunity is unbelievable.
Although everyone was jealous.
But he didn't dare say anything more.
They know.
No one dares to break Lin Fan's rules.
Around noon.
He Yuzhu finally finished preparing a meal.
He carefully packed the food into the lunchbox.
Carrying a lunchbox.
They arrived at the gate of Lin Fan's courtyard house.
He knocked gently on the door.
"Thump, thump, thump."
Fang Qingxue opened the door.
She saw He Yuzhu.
Her brows furrowed slightly.
This man is no ordinary person.
"Is something the matter?" Fang Qingxue's voice was indifferent.
He Yuzhu met Fang Qingxue.
His face was full of smiles.
His posture was somewhat obsequious.
"Hello, fairy maiden."
He rubbed his hands together.
"I...I just finished cooking and came here specifically to invite Mr. Lin to taste it."
Fang Qingxue didn't say anything more.
He simply stepped aside.
He gestured for him to go inside.
He Yuzhu walked into the courtyard.
I saw Lin Fan sitting in the rocking chair.
Close your eyes and rest your mind.
He quickly stepped forward.
He placed the lunchbox in front of Lin Fan.
"Mr. Lin, hello!"
He Yuzhu's voice trembled slightly.
"I...I've prepared the food, please enjoy it."
Lin Fan opened his eyes.
He calmly glanced at the food in the lunchbox.
The dishes were a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.
He was somewhat satisfied.
He picked up his chopsticks.
I picked up a piece of braised pork.
Put it in your mouth.
He savored it carefully.
Then, his brow furrowed slightly.
He Yuzhu noticed Lin Fan frowning.
My heart suddenly tightened.
he thinks.
Mr. Lin may not be satisfied.
He quickly asked, "Mr. Lin, how...how do you feel?"
Lin Fan chuckled softly.
"The taste is alright."
His gaze fell on He Yuzhu's face.
"The dishes are indeed a bit better than what you used to make."
He Yuzhu heard this.
A surge of joy welled up inside me.
He thought Lin Fan was satisfied.
However, Lin Fan changed the subject.
"but."
His voice turned somber.
"Your cooking is still terrible!"
He Yuzhu's joy froze on his face.
The blood color faded instantly.
My body began to tremble uncontrollably.
he knows.
Mr. Lin was not satisfied.
Lin Fan looked at him coldly.
The tone was calm.
Yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.
"The dishes you made were excellent in color, aroma, and taste."
"But something is missing."
"Your cooking lacks 'spirit'!"
He Yuzhu was stunned by Lin Fan's words.
My whole body stiffened.
His pupils were filled with fear.
he knows.
Mr. Lin must have discovered some secret.
He asked eagerly, "Mr. Lin, what...what did you mean by spiritual energy?"
Lin Fan chuckled again.
"Spiritual energy?"
His voice carried a hint of amusement.
"Do you think anyone can possess spiritual energy?"
I'll say it again.
"Your cooking lacks 'spirit'!"
He Yuzhu was terrified by Lin Fan's words.
His knees buckled.
He fell to his knees with a "thud".
"Mr. Lin, I was wrong! I was really wrong!"
His voice was choked with sobs.
"I...I don't know what spiritual energy is!"
Lin Fan said calmly, "I don't know?"
"So you still want to learn how to cook?"
He paused.
I'll give you a chance.
"Starting today, you will come to me every day."
"Help me clean, wash vegetables, and cook."
"If you can learn 'Reiki' from me."
"I will accept you as my apprentice."
"If you can't learn it."
"Then don't blame me for being impolite!"
Lin Fan's tone was calm.
Yet it contains an irresistible power.
He Yuzhu was taken aback by what he said.
His body trembled violently.
His eyes were filled with awe.
He understands.
Mr. Lin is giving him a chance.
He nodded quickly.
His voice trembled.
"Yes, Mr. Lin! I'll go prepare right away!"
"I definitely won't let you down!"
Lin Fan gave a soft snort.
"Remember what you said."
"If you dare to disappoint me."
"Then don't blame me for being impolite!"
He Yuzhu was given this final warning by Lin Fan.
Terrified out of their wits.
he knows.
Mr. Lin was not joking.
He scrambled to his feet.
He hurriedly ran back into the house.
Start preparing for tomorrow's "apprenticeship" life.
Lin Fan watched He Yuzhu's hurried departure.
A ripple of emotion crossed his mind.
These are mundane matters.
It never stops.
He sighed softly.
I lay back down in the rocking chair.
he knows.
These troubles will not be easily resolved.
But he didn't care much.
As long as you have enough strength.
All troubles will be kept out.
He closed his eyes.
Continue to enjoy this moment of tranquility.
At this time.
In the neighboring yard.
He Yuzhu was filled with fear.
And an indescribable excitement.
he knows.
This is the greatest opportunity of his life.
He swore.
He must seize this opportunity.
Become Mr. Lin's apprentice!
He wants to learn that mysterious "spiritual energy"!
