The food on the table was quickly swept away, and the diners present were eagerly waiting for the medicated food that the Xu family had been promoting for half a month. There was nothing to eat, and many people gathered together to chat.
”I have eaten the Houttuynia cordata feast at Zhao’s Private Kitchen, and it tastes good, but I don’t know if Xu’s can make the same taste.”
“Isn’t it saying that the Xu family stole the Zhao family’s secret recipe? How bad can the taste be?” Someone looked around and whispered in a low voice, “There is a cousin in my family who is an employee of the Xu family. I heard that their losses were huge, and even this tasting event was done with a loan.”
A short voice of surprise came from the crowd, “Really? How many years old is Xu’s brand, even if its reputation is damaged? Not to the point of taking out a loan, right?”
“Who knows, let’s just eat, anyway, Xu’s dishes are still pretty good, but I haven’t heard that their store has medicated meals before, so this time it’s better. Try it.”
“Yes, it is said that the last dish is Houttuynia cordata mixed with crab meat. The hairy crabs are all delivered by air. Today is really a good thing. It’s a ghost if the financial resources go out of business, right?
“Hearing this, Xu Cinian, who was next to him, couldn’t help raising the corners of his mouth after hearing this, tsk tsk, “Houttuynia cordata with crab meat
 I really think I didn’t die fast enough.”
“What’s the point of pairing these two together? Is it?” Qu Cheng pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and asked in a low voice.
“Of course it’s important.” Xu Cinian nodded, pressing his moustache and said, “Houttuynia cordata and crabs are both extremely cold things to eat together, although they have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, they are only suitable for In summer, and it can only be used for people with dry, hot and sunny bodies. People who are slightly cold and weak will definitely have diarrhea.”
“It’s spring, if you eat it, will you have diarrhea?” Luo Xiaomao’s eyes widened when he heard this.
“Not pulling, but definitely pulling.”
Xu Cinian rubbed his forehead, tugged the corners of his mouth helplessly, and whispered, “When it’s warm and cold in spring, you need to supplement with warm things, so that the cold energy accumulated in the body will be released all winter, otherwise It is easy to get rheumatism. Xu Jianguo and Xu Xinnian saw that we made medicated meals to make money and wanted to get a piece of the pie. I want to go crazy.”
Luo Xiaomao opened his mouth wide, and instantly felt that Xu Cinian’s image was much taller, darling, when did you have such a research on Chinese medicine?
Qu Cheng couldn’t help laughing softly, but he didn’t expect this peacock to know a lot, “You let us watch the play because you knew they wanted to cook crab meat and Houttuynia cordata together, so let us Come to see a joke?”
Xu Cinian shook his head and evoked a playful smile, “I only knew about this dish when I heard someone mention it, but I’m talking about more than this.”
“???” What?
Qu Cheng and Luo Xiaomao frowned suspiciously at the same time. At this time, the waiter in the distance had come over with the last dish, and all the diners around him rushed over. The word “hairy crab” alone is enough to make people drool. Yes, it’s a fool not to go up and grab it at this time!
Luo Xiaomao also went to join in the fun, and he wasted his strength to grab a plate. He saw that the crab meat on the plate was alluring white, and it was lined with Houttuynia cordata with dark brown sauce. One shallow and one deep, it also exudes a fragrant rice vinegar smell, which makes people move their index fingers.
“Although I know it will cause diarrhea, but I still seem to want to eat it
Is it okay to eat a little bit?” Luo Xiaomao sucked in his saliva, his eyes glowing with greed, Stick out his chopsticks and pick it up to taste.
Xu Cinian held his hand and shook his head. Qu Cheng picked up a piece of Houttuynia cordata on the plate with his chopsticks and looked at it. Then he sniffed carefully under his nose, and wrinkled all of a sudden. Brows, “This thing has deteriorated.”
Although he is not as knowledgeable as Xu Cinian in cooking, but after fighting and killing in the QingLong Gang for so many years, he has long practiced a “dog nose”, what can be eaten and what is poisonous, he can basically guess by smelling it.
Luo Xiaomao was stunned when he heard this, glanced carefully to the side, and asked in a low voice, “Cinian, what the hell is going on? Didn’t you sell these Houttuynia cordata to him, how could they rot?”
Xu Cinian looked at the “medicated meal” that was beautifully packaged and smelled full of color and flavor, and sneered, “This Xu Xinnian is not what I expected, he is a lunatic, he can do such a crazy thing. Originally, I just wanted to test him, but I didn’t expect that he would really dare to use the spoiled Houttuynia cordata to make up for it.”
Qu Cheng also frowned at the moment, “What do you mean?”
Xu Cinian looked around vigilantly, three people holding a plate, he seems to be walking to the corner while sharing the food.
“Xu Xinnian went to Qingyuan Farm to buy a lot of Houttuynia cordata. After Chen Jun told me, I thought of a way to make him a fortune and set up a trap that kills two birds with one stone.”
“Now Xu’s family uses it. Houttuynia cordata ‘defective products’ in my warehouse. Although the quality and efficacy of these products are the same as fresh ones, the shelf life is very short, and the leaves are yellow. If they cannot be air-dried and stored, they will rot in a few days. It’s getting dark.”
Luo Xiaomao still didn’t understand, but Qu Cheng had a clear idea and asked the key point at once, “Since the leaves of these Houttuynia cordata have turned yellow, how did you hide them from Xu Xinnian’s eyes and sell them to himm
Cinian smiled, “It’s very simple, when my mother was cooking when I was a child, she always felt sorry for those vegetables that had turned yellow but hadn’t broken. She often put salt in the water when washing vegetables, so that the soaked vegetables will be particularly fresh and juicy.”
Qu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, “So you soaked all the Houttuynia cordata 　　in salt water before selling it to Xu Xinnian?”
“I used to calculate the decay time of these Houttuynia cordata in the warehouse, it was about a week. When Xu Xinnian came to me to buy the goods, there were still three days before this trial event, so in order to shorten the life of Houttuynia cordata, I used five All the goods were soaked in ten-degree warm water.”
“When I was just studying the cultivation of Houttuynia cordata, I read an agricultural book, which mentioned that the shriveled vegetables are due to the loss of water, and they are responsible for absorbing water from the outside world. The stomata are closed, as long as you soak them in 50 degrees warm water, the stomata of the plant can be reopened, so that enough water can be absorbed, and the leaves will look particularly fresh, but the biggest disadvantage of this coup is that once the plant leaves the water, it will die quickly.”
Hearing this, Luo Xiaomao fully understood, and opened his mouth for a long time before he could say a few words, “What kind of head are you
Is it true that you won’t be bald like this?”
Xu Cinian laughed and raised his leg. He kicked him, and next to him Qu Cheng smiled and shook his head. He was also full of emotion. It was really stressful to find a daughter-in-law with so many hearts.
“So you calculated the time and sold the Houttuynia cordata to Xu Xinnian, so that when he saw the goods, it was still fresh, and there was no problem with inspection, but once it was put into a warehouse without water , it will rot within three days, so even if the Xu family’s tasting meeting is a success, the final finale will not be cooked, right?”
Xu Cinian threw an admiring look at Qu Cheng, and then some more. Helpless, “I originally thought that Xu Xinnian would never use Houttuynia cordata when he found that it was rotten. Who would have thought that he not only used it, but also served it with crab meat. This time, he really did his own fault and couldn’t live.”
Luo Xiaomao looked around and found that everyone had eaten their food. He was a little anxious for a while, “What will happen to this rotten Houttuynia cordata and crab meat?”
Xu Cinian rubbed his forehead, and his face was a little ugly. Originally, Houttuynia cordata was slightly poisonous, and eating too much can cause diarrhea. Coupled with the spoiled and cold crabs, it is simply

“It’s comparable to laxatives.”
The four words fell to the ground, Luo Xiaomao’s chin fell to the ground, Qu Cheng frowned gloomily, and sneered, “It seems that some people are rushing to kill, and no one can stop them.”
A sumptuous meal ended. The diners were extremely satisfied. The rich sauce completely covered up the taste of the spoiled Houttuynia cordata, and coupled with the rich taste of crab roe, the aftertaste only felt fragrant on the lips and teeth, and no one noticed that there was any problem with the food.
A smile finally appeared on Xu Jianguo’s face, and the wrinkles on his old face piled up, as if he had foreseen the future of Xu’s salted fish turning over.
The online “free trial” posts and a large number of live food pictures have made many people’s hearts unstoppable, and they can’t help feeling that Xu’s is indeed a ten-year-old restaurant, and the standard and service are first-class, and some people have even begun to question it. Would such a high-end restaurant brand really steal the secret recipe of a small restaurant? Could it be that the previous scandal was deliberately hyped by someone to smear the Xu Group?
Under the promotion of the navy, the Internet has been divided into two factions, and there is a lot of noise at the moment. This effect is what Xu Jianguo wants. He sat on the main seat and waved his hand refreshed, into the microphone to announce the next model catwalk show.
The dynamic music sounded, and the models who had eaten the free meal with the diners, dressed in thin clothes, walked out of the backstage, and there were many Internet celebrities and nerd goddesses, and the audience was watching. The crowd instantly boiled, swaying to the dynamic music, and some people even reached out and begged to shake hands with the goddess, and the atmosphere of the scene was pushed to the highest tide.
But at this moment, a well-known little model who was in the lead suddenly covered her stomach while walking, her beautiful face suddenly turned pale, and after a few steps, her feet became weak and she suddenly fell on the stage.
Seeing this scene, Xu Jianguo and Xu Xinnian, who had just come out of the back kitchen, were a little dumbfounded, and they didn’t wait to run up.
More models on the stage fell one by one, all covering their stomachs with their hands, and the diners under the stage reacted more violently, wailing, and they fell down a lot at once.
The scene was suddenly in chaos, but everyone who had eaten the last dish reacted at this moment, shouting “stomach pain”, Xu Jianguo’s face changed instantly, he coughed violently, and immediately took the microphone to calm everyone’s emotions , “Everyone calm down! Don’t panic now!
What’s going on?” More and more people fell down, and all the security guards were dispatched. As a result, when they saw the scene, more than 100 people were lying on the ground, and they didn’t even know. How to react.
Xu Xinnian’s heart panicked, his palms were sweating non-stop, looking at the crowd, he stepped back several steps softly.
These people
 Could it be that they ate those spoiled Houttuynia cordata to become like this? But
 it’s obviously just a little rotten leaf, how can there be such a big reaction?
“Ah
my stomach hurts! Fuck! Where’s the toilet!”
“I
go to the toilet too! I want to vomit
”
“Don’t grab
I can’t help
vomit
”
The scene “Sorrows are everywhere”, some people spit it out directly, and the unpleasant smell permeates instantly, but more people don’t even care about this, and they swarm into Xu’s restaurant like headless flies. flush down the toilet.
Hundreds of people all had to go to the toilet, and they scrambled to push down several people. The scene became a mess. People were constantly being pushed down and stepped on. The door of the restaurant was also smashed by the influx of people down.
The three were mixed in the crowd, pretending to have a stomachache, bending over to hide in the corner.
