Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Going to Get the Certificate



After confirming, the staff didn\'t ask anything more.

After all, Tong Ya and Chen Yu, based solely on appearances, were an extremely good match and looked very much like a couple.

Moreover, a handsome young man together with a beautiful woman, anyone would feel like they were a match made in heaven.

At this moment, all eyes in the hall were drawn to Chen Yu and Tong Ya.

The staff didn\'t dawdle and quickly processed the marriage certificate for the two of them.

When she received the marriage certificate, Tong Ya suddenly burst into tears.

Chen Yu panicked immediately, "What\'s wrong, Ya Ya?"

Tong Ya sobbed, "I\'ve been waiting for this day for seven years!"

Chen Yu tenderly ruffled Tong Ya\'s hair.

"Then from now on, I\'ll make up those seven years to you."

Tong Ya nodded vigorously and then burrowed into Chen Yu\'s embrace.

The two of them left the establishment under the envious gazes of the staff.

When Chen Yu returned to the store, he found Chen Guang sitting there with a serious expression, holding an invitation letter in his hand.

Chen Yu frowned, "Dad, what\'s happened?"

Chen Guang sighed helplessly, "The store has been invited to the Suzhou City cooking competition."

Chen Yu chuckled, "And here I thought it was something serious. It\'s just a cooking competition!"

"You don\'t understand anything! This is someone trying to force you into the competition, taking the opportunity to ruin your reputation."

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, "Is it really that serious?"

Wang Qingshan and Li Gang also came over at this point.

Their faces were equally grave.

"Don\'t take it lightly!" Wang Qingshan slapped Chen Yu\'s shoulder, "I\'ve been invited before and managed to place, otherwise my store would have been gone."

Chen Yu was startled, "The competition is linked to one\'s own store?"

Li Gang nodded, "More than that! Competitions like this are meant to generate traffic. Whoever wins will not have to worry about customers for the following year."

As he said this, Li Gang suddenly seemed hesitant.

Chen Guang took over smoothly, "If you don\'t place or are eliminated during the competition, the store\'s reputation can plummet."

Chen Yu still appeared casual.

"This is actually a good opportunity to promote the store."

At these words, the three men beside him all froze for a second.

At this moment, Ning Kai also approached.

"Chen Yu is skilled in the culinary arts, just going up and making a few Sichuan dishes might win the title, what\'s there to worry about?"

Wang Qingshan also nodded, "Right! Even I managed to rank with just a soy sauce pig\'s trotter, let alone Chen Yu."

Chen Yu didn\'t say anything more, simply put away the invitation, and then went to the kitchen.

He took a steaming basket, wrapped the bitter melon he had picked that morning in some flour after preparing them simply, and then placed it inside.

Next, he took out twenty clay pots and set them on little gas stoves.

He added various herbs and main ingredients into the pots.

Then he started adjusting sauces on the side.

Before long, a rich aroma began to spread.

Ning Kai, Li Gang, and Wang Qingshan had mostly freed up their time by now.

They smelled the fragrance and immediately ran over to Chen Yu\'s side.

"Wow, what are you making? It smells so good." Wang Qingshan leaned in with his nose, saliva already dribbling from the corner of his mouth.

"These are medicinal meals for the elderly."

Chen Yu replied simply and continued to busily attend to the task at hand.

Li Gang was by now utterly astounded.

When he first saw Chen Yu preparing medicinal cuisine, he thought Chen Yu merely knew a single recipe.

Little did he expect that Chen Yu could simultaneously make so many different types of medicinal dishes.

In the world of cuisine, medicinal dishes can be considered a distinct category.

Many medicinal cuisines have their own unique recipes.

After all, chefs are not doctors; if they do not strictly follow the specified recipes when making medicinal dishes, it could indeed lead to fatal mistakes.

Not long after, the elderly patrons hurriedly arrived at the restaurant.

"Old Wang, those steamers over there should be ready; help me take them down," Chen Yu said.

Wang Qingshan did not dare to delay and quickly took down the steamer baskets beside him.

A unique and strong aroma wafted through the air, causing Wang Qingshan to freeze on the spot.

"Is this, bitter melon cake? Can this also be used in cooking?" asked Wang Qingshan in amazement.

Chen Yu chuckled and promptly served the bitter melon cakes in bowls.

Immediately after, he brought out the sauce he had prepared earlier as well.

The elderly patrons were initially surprised at the sight of the bitter melon cakes.

For them, it was something they had eaten only during difficult times in their childhood.

And that bitter taste was almost deeply etched in their bones.

However, the bitter melon cakes in front of them seemed different from what they had eaten as children.

Especially the rich aroma that continuously tantalized their tastebuds.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the special bitter melon cake rice I\'ve made. Please treat it as a staple and enjoy it with this sauce," Chen Yu addressed the elders.

Hearing Chen Yu\'s instructions, everyone hesitated no longer.

However, at first, they were still very cautious with their first bites.

But as soon as the bitter melon cake reached their mouth, all the elders\' eyes widened in disbelief.

This taste was completely different from the bitter flavor they remembered from their childhood.

While there was still a hint of bitterness, it felt refreshingly different to them.

And with the sauce, it was even more delicious.

"Chef Chen, this is too delicious!"

"If we had known bitter melon cakes were this tasty, we would have gone to the wild to dig some up ourselves."

...

After watching all of the elderly finish their bitter melon cake rice, Chen Yu then brought out the clay pots he had prepared for them.

Each clay pot contained a medicinal concoction targeted at specific ailments.

The balance between meat and vegetarian ingredients, as well as the proportions of the various medicinal herbs, were also meticulously controlled by Chen Yu.

At this moment, Wang Qingshan, Ning Kai, and Li Gang stood by nervously.

Wang Qingshan even took out his phone and had his finger ready on the emergency call option.

As experienced chefs, they were all aware of what medicinal cuisine implied.

Should any of these elders have any adverse reactions, they would need to find a way to remedy the situation quickly.

But unexpectedly, after the elders had eaten, not only did none of them encounter any issues, but a look of unprecedented relief also appeared on each of their faces.

Some even broke out in a heavy sweat all over their bodies.

"Oh my, it feels like my stomach ailment has alleviated a bit."

"My chronic leg pain is gone!"

"It\'s miraculous! It\'s just a bowl of braised pork, but how come my headache has cleared up?"

...

Seeing the elders\' reactions, Wang Qingshan and the other two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They also looked at Chen Yu with a gaze that was nearly worshipful.

Being able to cook delicious food may not necessarily make one a good chef, but being skilled at preparing medicinal cuisine certainly makes one a divine chef.
