soul collector

The live broadcast team of "The Taste of the Stars" filmed the scene next to a small church in the suburbs, surrounded by lawns, and the scenery is still very pleasant.This is the first time this platform has a gourmet reality show, and I am afraid that it will not be able to get out of the circle. The number of guests in the first episode is amazing.Although Tang Xiu and Jiang Qiao were mentally prepared, they were still taken aback when they arrived at the scene.

The traffic niche, popular singer, popular actor, variety show expert, and even two internet celebrities, even Jiang Qiao, who has a lot of people, felt a little embarrassed at a glance.

The guide who was in charge of Jiang Qiao and Tang Xiu came over with the machine, and greeted warmly, "We will start up at half o'clock, and there are still a few minutes, you two should familiarize yourself with the surroundings first?"

Tang Xiu nodded his thanks.Looking around, there are actually two areas: the U-shaped chef area composed of three long white tables, and the diner area composed of the same three long tables arranged in a line.Jiang Qiao's nameplate was placed in a U-shape near his belly. The camera was very good, and Tang Xiu was directly opposite him.

The director followed, and whispered: "The program team needs more shots of the two of you, and you can interact more later, otherwise there won't be enough material for the later edited version."

Tang Xiu glanced at Jiang Qiao who was studying the kitchen utensils not far away, and curled his lips, "Don't worry, he's full of jokes."

He was stunned after listening to the guide, and he had the impression that Tang Xiu and Jiang Qiao were hyped CPs. With Jiang Qiao's prestige as a director and Tang Xiu's humble and serious personality, he was worried that Tang Xiu would not let go of Jiang Qiao.

Tang Xiu turned his head and saw the shocked face of the guide, and sighed, "Let's try to interact as much as possible, but the program crew can't cut it too far. It's not good for the audience in the live broadcast room to compare different stories later."

The guide immediately nodded, "It's natural."

When the machine was turned on at half o'clock, a large number of viewers flooded into the live broadcast room.The guests' mobile phones were confiscated, so they could only devote themselves to the show.There is only one host seat for this live broadcast, and the materials captured by the directors are used for the subsequent edited version.Only one camera seat means that it is time to compete for the sense of variety.Before Tang Xiu had time to say hello to the camera, all kinds of jokes were already being made in the small traffic companies next door. The live broadcast camera stopped in front of him and Jiang Qiao and then moved away.

The director sighed beside him, but Tang Xiu thought it was good, he was seriously afraid that Jiang Qiao would set fire to the live broadcast.Taking advantage of the camera to capture the guests next to him, he silently walked to Jiang Qiao and said in a low voice, "What are you going to do?"

Jiang Qiao was counting the ingredients nervously, "You can eat it after waiting."

"..." Tang Xiu was speechless, and glanced at the things in Jiang Qiao's basket.

A pinch of glutinous rice, seven or eight grains of rock sugar, a handful of longan, four red dates, and two white fungus.

Tang Xiu had no expression on his face, "Isn't it to make red date porridge with rock sugar?"

Jiang Qiao suddenly raised his head, "How do you know?"

"..."

Tang Xiu really wanted to pick up the man's collar and ask, if we don't see each other behind closed doors for a week, did you practice this? !But he glanced back at the camera following the director, and silently swallowed his words.

Following the guide, he smiled and winked, obviously satisfied with Tang Xiu's deflated expression.Tang Xiu sighed and rubbed his forehead, "You know we only have five chefs, but we have ten diners, right?"

Jiang Qiao let out a groan, with a face that has nothing to do with me.

Tang Xiu took a deep breath, "Director, with this little material, I can make a small bowl at most."

Jiang Qiao was taken aback when he heard the words, "I thought I was only in charge of you..." He said and turned to follow the guide, "Isn't it?"

Shaking his head selflessly with the guide iron face, "No."

"..."

The live broadcast machine happened to be placed here, and when Tang Xiu turned his head, he saw a tearful and laughing expression on the barrage.The old ancestor twitched the corner of his mouth, forced a smile to the camera, and waved his hand.

【Can Director Jiang really know how to cook】

【Isn't this a program with a competition mechanism】

[The next door is making braised pork, I'm worried]

[There are still people making squirrel mandarin fish, is it really a man to make a bowl of porridge?]

Tang Xiu looked at the barrage, and the smile gradually disappeared on his face.

The host announced: "Star diners, please go back to your seats and sit down. We are now officially starting the competition. After an hour, the star chefs will present their respective dishes, and the star feast will officially begin."

Tang Xiu sighed and walked back to his seat, looking at the small live broadcast screen on his desk.

[One hour, they cook meat and fish probably only one dish]

[It is hard to imagine a feast of stars with only five dishes]

【Five dishes for fifteen people...】

[There is also a bowl of porridge]

[Do you think Director Jiang can really take care of Mr. Tang? I'm worried]

【Yeah, I came to watch the live broadcast for them】

【Tang is always thin, but a bowl of porridge is not enough to eat】

The old ancestor's smile became more and more stiff and dull.He sat in the camera, silently watching Jiangqiao not far away.

Soak the glutinous rice in the water bowl, stir it, turn your head and pour it, the water is poured out, and half of the rice has gone.

Jiang Qiao stiffened for a moment, pretending to be calm and continuing to wash the rice.The assistant next to him was a little anxious when he saw it, so he ran away silently and took out his mobile phone to make a call. Tang Xiu knew from his mouth shape that he was asking for help from the support staff of the program group, so he could only sigh.

After washing the rice, he began to wash the other ingredients. The longan and red dates were all placed in a big bowl. Jiang Qiao was about to reach for the rock sugar when he felt a chill on the top of his head.

He raised his head abruptly, and saw Tang Xiuxiu staring at him with knives in his eyes, seemingly expressionless.

Jiang Qiao was dumbfounded.

——Is there no need to wash the rock sugar?

—— Rock sugar cannot be washed.

—Oh, well, no wonder.

Jiang Qiao withdrew his gaze, retracted his half-stretched hand, washed the red dates as skillfully as possible, and poured them into the glutinous rice together.

The assistant ran over from not far away and silently handed him another bowl of glutinous rice, so Jiang Qiao nodded and started a new round of rice washing.

Tang Xiu sighed, lowered his head and continued to look at the barrage.

[The cooking next door is really lively, the braised pork feels delicious]

[Brothers, I have a faint feeling that something is wrong]

【Looking at Director Jiang's actions, I can't believe my eyes】

【Already have a bad feeling】

[Do you think Director Jiang is nervous?all sweating]

[Just now when the machine was brought in, Tang Xiu's face looked ugly...I don't know if it's an illusion]

After Jiang Qiao washed the rice round after round, and finally put those things into the transparent cooking pot neatly, the braised pork next door had already started to collect its juice.Tang Xiu glanced at the time—well, there is not enough time to cook the porridge.

The barrage was all worried about Jiang Qiao and Jiang Qiao's porridge.When the host announced the 10-minute countdown, a wave of boiling bubbles rose for the first time in the transparent cooking pot.

The live broadcast machine came to Tang Xiu's side, and the host asked, "Tang Xiu, do you have confidence in Director Jiang's porridge?"

The entire audience in the studio was waiting for his reply.

The man in the embroidered shirt sighed lightly and then suddenly smiled. He raised his hand and unbuttoned his cuffs, and turned up two buttons.

Host, "What is this for?"

"Help." Tang Xiu's voice was low and gentle, "Director Jiang is as picky about everything as he is about filming, so it's unlikely that he will be able to deliver anything in an hour with his strict standards for himself. I can only help Help, although it is not as detailed as Director Jiang, but it is still possible to force the entrance."

Tang Xiu walked to the side of Jiang Qiao calmly as he said that, and said with a smile, "The director doesn't mind if I help?"

Jiang Qiao had a complicated expression, "I don't really mind."

"That's good."

Tang Xiu walked around the venue under the watchful eyes of everyone, gathered up the extra and unnecessary ingredients in the baskets of each family, and then smiled at the camera: "Ten minutes is enough to fry two large pots of vegetables."

The staff made room for a large frying pan, and the live camera couldn't help but place the machine opposite Tang Xiu.Tang Xiu washed his hands and began to demonstrate his god-level cooking skills.

When those graceful hands touched the ingredients and knives, there was still no smell of fireworks.The audience on the other side of the screen was stunned, and the barrage was swiping quickly.

【Tang Xiu used to be an actor... right? 】

[Not a chef? 】

[My mother, what is this amazing knife skill]

[I can watch Mr. Tang cut celery for a year]

Jiang Qiao silently walked to Tang Xiu's side, pulled up a chair and sat down, the red dates and goji berry porridge not far away was still boiling in the pot again and again, but the chef himself had already betrayed.

Although the ancestor seldom cooks at home, Jiang Qiao probably guessed what he was going to do with just a glance at the ingredients, and asked in a low voice, "Stir-fried beef with celery?"

"Hmm." Tang Xiu seemed to carelessly raised his hand to wipe his neckline, pressed the microphone, and said in a low voice, "Your blood pressure has been a little high these two days."

"Oh."

The barrage was frantically swiping to see what exactly Tang Xiu said. The words "you" and "gao" were more recognizable. Soon some netizens completed the cloze and hit the correct answer. I don't mind, I get used to it after playing too many edge balls without a real hammer.

After 10 minutes, the timer sounded, and Tang Xiu's second dish was also served.

A dish of stir-fried beef with celery and a dish of scrambled eggs with tomato are all home-cooked dishes. They are mainly based on quantity, which is enough for a dozen people.These two dishes are difficult to evaluate the true level of the ancestor's culinary skills. If you want to say it is superb, the dishes are too simple. If you want to say it is mediocre, but the two simple dishes are clean and neat, and the color, fragrance and taste are delicious.

No matter how good he was, the diners had already surrounded him with their bowls. Tang Xiu couldn't do anything at all, so he could only be surrounded in the middle.

In order to abide by the rules of the competition, Jiang Qiao still poured out his red dates and longan porridge, barely a small bowl, for Tang Xiu's exclusive use.

[Is this the exquisite and strict that Mr. Tang said? ? 】

【emmmm...】

[I don't think President Tang looks like someone who can blow rainbow farts, but I really can't believe it...]

【Let's give our ancestors some face】

[Yes, it actually looks quite delicate (hell)]

Jiang Qiao watched the barrage for a while, then silently explained to the camera, "Porridge is very simple, but I cooked it with great care."

The barrage was full of laughter, and sporadically, a few netizens with abnormal nerves were moved, and they brushed up rows of hearts.

Jiang Qiao sighed, and whispered to the camera: "It's really not enough to be a good director. Cooking skills are really an essential skill for a happy life. I will continue to work hard."

The barrage asked badly—[Why is it a necessary skill for a happy life? 】

Jiang Qiao didn't speak. He glanced at Tang Xiu who was being held in the middle not far away. Tang Xiu just turned around to look for him in the crowd, and the two looked at each other.The old ancestor smiled helplessly and softly, raised his finger to eat the porridge, and made a mouth shape.

——I'll go over to drink later, save it for me.

Jiang Qiao let out a sigh of relief, carefully put the transparent porridge bowl in the palm of his hand, held it on his chest, and waited for someone to come over.

No matter how much others laughed at him, the ancestors never disliked him, and that was enough.
