The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles

Everyone followed the prestige, but saw a slim figure approaching from the stairs.

When she walked into the hall, everyone's eyes lit up.

I saw her face was goose fat, her lips were like cherry blossoms, her eyebrows were like ink painting, and her expression was like autumn water, she was indescribably charming.

"It's Xiu Niang! She really is a beauty in the world." Many people were amazed.

Xiu Niang came to Jia Jue and bowed to him: "Xiu Niang has seen Young Master Yu."

"Excuse me." Jia Jue smiled at her and stretched out his hand to help her.

Xiu Niang straightened up, and looked at him with approving eyes: "As expected of the number one scholar, he can distinguish the smell of these ingredients."

Jia Jue smiled: "I usually like to play with some crops, and this nose is not bad, so I can tell the difference."

Everyone was stunned, but Xiu Niang looked at him in surprise: "I thought the young master was just a noble young master with ten fingers not touching the spring water."

"Xiu Niang thinks too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary person. I'm not a gentleman." Jia Jue shook her head with a smile.

Xiu Niang glanced at him, covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Young Master is too humble, if you want to come to the whole capital at this time, I am afraid there is no one more noble than Young Master."

Jia Jue quickly shook her head: "Shut up Xiu Niang, I'm nothing in the crouching tiger, hidden dragon in the capital."

"Young master is really humble." Xiuniang smiled, "Young master, you answered the first question, and you answered all twenty flavors. Xiuniang made an exception and cooked a dish for you. However, If the young master chooses to continue answering the question, if he loses, he will be gone. I don’t know how the young master will choose?”

Everyone looked at Jia Jue with surprise when they heard the words. If Xiu Niang cooks for herself, one dish will be enough.

If Jia Jue stopped at this time, he would have made a profit.

But when they were thinking this way, Jia Jue smiled and said, "Since we have entered Baoshan, how can we return so easily? Xiuniang, please write a question."

These words made many people shake their heads and sigh, how could it be easy for Xiu Niang to come up with the question herself?
If you don't want the benefits, but still hope for the Shuiyue Jinghua, which is even more difficult to obtain, you are really greedy and arrogant.

Xiu Niang also asked: "Master, do you really want to continue?"

Jia Jue smiled slightly: "Really."

Seeing his insistence, Xiu Niang thought for a while and asked: "Since that's the case, I dare to ask you, how many types of knife skills are there in cooking, and what are the techniques for each type?"

Upon hearing this question, everyone showed a dazed look at first, but then they all looked at Jia Jue and shook their heads and sighed.

Such a problem, unless it is an experienced old cook, how can ordinary people know?
Jia Jue is not a cook, how could he know the answer?
If he could listen to their opinions in a good manner, why would he waste such a good opportunity in vain!
All right now, is everything gone?
With such a question, Ji Yun also looked at a loss. The knife is indeed her strong point, but the kitchen knife is different from the long knife, and she can't figure it out.

How to answer this?

In their eyes, Jia Jue smiled lightly: "Xiu Niang is really tricky about this question."

Xiu Niang smiled slightly: "My lord, it may be too late to repent at this time."

Jia Jue glanced at her and said loudly:
"As far as I know, knife skills include: cutting, slicing, chopping, chopping, patting, and cutting.

Among them, cutting can be divided into six techniques: straight cutting, pushing cutting, pulling cutting, sawing, guillotine cutting and rolling cutting.

There are also six techniques of pushing the blade, pulling the blade, beveling the blade, reverse the blade, sawing the blade and shaking the blade.

There are two types of chopping: single-knife and double-knife.There are two types of chopping: straight knife chopping and following knife chopping.There are three kinds of jigs: push knives, pull knives, and straight knives. "

The people who originally hated Jia Jue widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide after hearing the words, and their eyes were full of astonishment.

They never thought that Jia Jue would be able to say such a remark in such a logical manner.

They quickly looked at Xiu Niang, wanting to see her reaction.

But when he looked at it, he saw that Xiu Niang's face was also full of astonishment.

"Xiu Niang, is he right?" They asked quickly.

Xiu Niang looked at Jia Jue with complicated eyes: "Young Master has said everything Xiu Niang knows. But there are several things that Xiu Niang has never heard of."

Hearing this, all the onlookers were stupefied.

Doesn't the meaning of Xiuniang's words mean that Jia Jue said that she knows it all, but among the techniques Jia Jue said, there are some that she doesn't know?

How can this be?

Xiu Niang is a master of cooking, how could she not be as good as Jia Jue?

Jia Jue looked at Xiu Niang and smiled faintly: "If Xiu Niang is unclear, you can tell me."

The embroiderer immediately said: "The rolling cut, the straight knife, the embroiderer has never heard of it."

Jia Jue smiled: "Since Xiu Niang doesn't know, let me demonstrate."

demo?

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard the words, their faces full of disbelief.

You are the three young masters of the Jia family, Bo Renyi, and the number one scholar, but you can even cook with a knife?
"Hurry up and get the knife and ingredients." Xiu Niang was overjoyed when she heard the words, and immediately ordered to the servant girl.

The maid hurriedly went, but after a while, she brought a kitchen knife, a chopping board and some ingredients.

"My lord, please." Xiu Niang said to him.

Jia Jue nodded with a chuckle, and was about to get the kitchen knife.

Ji Yun quickly approached him and asked in a low voice, "Can you play with a kitchen knife? Be careful not to hurt yourself."

Jia Jue whispered, "I should be able to."

"Should be?" Ji Yun looked at him in astonishment.

Jia Jue gave her a smile, came to the chopping board and reached out to pick up the kitchen knife.

The moment he touched the kitchen knife, an inexplicable aura suddenly burst out from him, and Ji Yun and Xiu Niang both changed their expressions and took a step back.

"Sword intent!" Ji Yun's beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at Jia Jue incredulously. She never expected that Jia Jue would burst out with such an astonishing aura the moment he touched the kitchen knife. Just touched the realm!
And Xiu Niang also looked at him with a face of surprise, and Jia Jue's performance also greatly exceeded her expectations.

Holding a kitchen knife, Jia Jue showed a meaningful smile to Xiu Niang:

"Xiu Niang, come and see, this is rolling cut."

After finishing speaking, he picked up an ingredient, and the kitchen knife in his hand turned into a phantom to cut it.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!
A series of voices sounded, but the ingredients were cut into shreds by Jia Jue in a few breaths.

Xiu Niang hurried forward, but saw that the silk Jia Jue cut was so thin and dense that it was almost the same as hair.

Seeing this scene, even someone who doesn't know how to cook knows how good Jia Jue's knife skills are.

And the knowledgeable Ji Yun looked at Jia Jue with incomparably shocked eyes.

She knows how difficult it is, at least she thinks she can't do it.

Under the shocked eyes of everyone, Jia Jue picked up a piece of tofu and said to Xiu Niang:
"Embroiderer look good, this is a straight knife."

After the words fell, the kitchen knife in his hand turned into a phantom again, flying over the tofu.

This time, the crowd couldn't sit still anymore, they gathered around Jia Jue and watched Jia Jue's movements.

But at this glance, they were all stunned, because they only saw the knife in Jia Jue's hand moving, but the tofu didn't change at all.

Why is this?

Could it be that Jia Jue was just getting empty gestures?
Just when they were wondering, Jia Jue suddenly withdrew the knife.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, completely confused.

"Also ask the girl to fetch a basin of water." Jia Jue said to the maid.

The maid hurriedly fetched a basin of water.

Jia Jue smiled at her, picked up the chopping board with tofu, and put it into the water basin.

After the tofu entered the water, a scene that stunned everyone appeared. The tofu in the water suddenly escaped with extremely thin silk threads, and with the escape of these threads, a pattern slowly emerged on the tofu.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, a beautiful face slowly appeared on the tofu.

This is, embroiderer!
Everyone quickly looked at Xiu Niang, and then at the pretty face on the tofu, all showing shocking expressions.

It's almost exactly the same.

"Amazing skills! Amazing skills!" Everyone exclaimed, with extremely excited expressions.

Such a scene, let alone meet them!

I have never heard of it!
Not only them, even Xiu Niang and Ji Yun looked at Jia Jue with shocking eyes, and they never thought that Jia Jue could do this.

"Xiu Niang, Mr. Jia has passed this question?" Someone asked Xiu Niang.

Xiu Niang took a deep look at Jia Jue: "It's over."

"What's the third question?"

Xiu Niang shook her head and sighed: "There are no more questions, let alone a confidant, Mr. Jia's cooking skills can be Xiu Niang's teacher!"
