EAMRF Chapter 83

After recording the show and returning home, Yu Antong found that the things he bought to decorate Xiao Nian’s baby room had just arrived. There were several boxes, large and small, scattered in the living room.

“You are back.” Mrs. Xing asked, “What did you buy? There’s so much?”

Yu Antong answered, “I bought a bunch of Xiao Nian’s things. Some of them are for the room’s decorations.” 

This was when he asked Han Lele to look at Xiao Nian’s clothes before, and Han Lele asked him why he didn’t decorate the room before he remembered it.

That night, he picked a bunch of things from the Internet, but after all, they were for babies. Yu Antong was worried about the quality of online purchases, so he sorted out the sizes and pictures of the things he  needed, and handed them over to Xing Lixuan to buy. 

The things for his son must be the best, and Xing Lixuan asked someone to order them specially, so it took some time, and they are only delivered now.

Mrs. Xing asked, “Which room is it?”

Yu Antong pointed to the upstairs and said, “Is the room next door to Lixuan and I living now, and all the clothes I bought for Xiao Nian are stored in that room.”

Mrs. Xing was very happy when she heard this, it meant that her  little grandson was going to live with them. She originally thought that Yu Antong and Xing Lixuan still live in their apartment after Yu Antong gave birth. 

Yu Antong and Xing Lixuan’s plan was to live in the main house first. After Xiao Nian is born, this pair of new fathers are worried whether or not they can properly take care of a child. It’s better to ask for help from their parents to look after the child and guide them. 

When Xiao Nian is a little older, they can buy another house near the main house. Xiao Nian can go there anytime when he misses his grandparents.

Yu Antong unpacked the box with great interest. This box was full of colorful upholstery, while the next box contained a sky-blue wallpaper with star patterns, this one had a sunflower wall lamp, cartoon-printed curtain… 

Yu Antong called Xing Lixuan, “Husband, help me move it up, I want to arrange them now.”

Xing Lixuan replied, “Eat first, are you not hungry now?”

On the way back, he was dreaming about eating braised pork. But now, he actually forgot about it… 

Yu Antong: “…I’m hungry, let’s eat!”

The Auntie at home often asked Yu Antong for advice, and the food she cooked now tasted very good.

Today, she made chicken with chestnuts1板栗鸡; and braised prawns2this. The chicken meat was tender and juicy, a perfect complement with the sweet yet crunchy chestnuts. As for the prawn, it was plump and big, braised to perfection with tantalizing brown sauce… 

Yu Antong ate happily, and forgot his resentment that he couldn’t eat the dishes he cooked in the show.

After dinner, he took a nap, and then got up to decorate Xiao Nian’s baby room with Xing Lixuan.

Yu Antong planned to put up the wallpaper first. But after 3 minutes full of struggle to put it up, he lost his first battle. 

“I can’t do this, what should I do?” Yu Antong cast a helpless look at Xing Lixuan.

Sadly, even Xing-zong could only bow down in front of interior decor. 

Xing Lixuan tried a few times, and then calmly said, “Let a professional do it, we can hire one.” 

Yu Antong was a little disappointed and mumbled, “But I want to do it myself.”

In the end, a professional decorator was hired to put wallpaper on the roof and walls, replace the lightbulbs, and install the curtains.

Only a few that can be easily done were reserved for Yu Antong.

Yu Antong put a one-meter-high sponge wall mat close from the floor to the wall to prevent his little baby from bumping into it.

He laid colorful hard sponge floor mats on the ground, as children were very messy. Plus, it will cushion his baby when he falls down. It’s easier to clean too, much more hygienic. 

These are the valuable wisdoms that Yu Antong has gained from joining a group parenting group on the Internet and spying on their discussions for a few days.

It was inconvenient for Yu Antong to squat down, and Xing Lixuan basically did the work of laying the floor mats.

After finishing these, Yu Antong instructed Xing Lixuan to arrange other big objects. “The small sofa is placed in the southeast corner, and the crib is better placed here…”

After working for a long time, it was finally done. Yu Antong put his hands on his hips, looked at the brand new small room with satisfaction, and boasted, “I never thought I’d be quite talented in interior design!”

Xing Lixuan: “…”

He really couldn’t see what kind of talent it would take to stick a wall mat.

“Hey, what does that look mean!” Yu Antong pinched his arm dissatisfied with Xing Lixuan’s helpless expression.

Xing Lixuan hugged him into his arms and praised against his will. “Well, you are the best.”

Yu Antong smiled and hummed. “Your tone isn’t sincere at all. This time, I’ll give you another chance – give me praise, no less than a hundred words, full of your true feelings.” 

Fortunately, Yu Antong’s cell phone rang at this moment, and Xing Lixuan was rescued.

“Hello, Fu Xin.”

Fu Xin came to report to him. “Yu-zong, the first batch of mass-produced products in the new factory can be sold online this Friday. It’s time for us to expand offline sales channels.”

At present, the only offline sales channel for Immortal’s Banquet non-staple food is via Mr. Wang’s chain supermarket that he contacted before.

In the past, the production capacity of Immortal’s Banquet was insufficient, and it was always in short supply. Now that the new factory is put into operation, the production capacity has been greatly improved, and the offline distribution channels can also be expanded.

The two discussed this issue for a while, and initially decided on a plan. Yu Antong added, “By the way, let’s change the online sales time to Saturday, and wait until the last episode of ‘God of Chefs!’ is finished. “

Fu Xin immediately agreed.


Saturday night, “God of Chefs!” aired on time.

As the dishes made by Yu Antong and Fu Fengxing came out one by one, the comments from netizens became more and more intensive.

[Yu Antong stop eating! Everyone on the Internet knows that you are fat!]

[Xing-zong: I have finally managed to fatten him out, let him eat!] 

[Haha, it would be too wasteful not to open a ranch if Xing-zong has this ability.]

[Upstairs, stop for a sec. What do you mean? What are you insinuating about my wife Tongtong?!] 

[I seem to see Yu Antong swallowing saliva secretly, is this because of the food he made?]

[This sauce is so appetizing, I’m drooling like crazy already!] 

[I’m sure I saw Yu Antong swallow his saliva! He makes me even hungrier! Alas, he can eat it, but I can’t] 

[Haha, Yu Antong, is this a taste-test? Why do I feel like this is the chef portion instead?] 

[He looks so cute when being a glutton! I envy Xing-zong every day, making me want to steal his wife from under his nose.] 

[I want to enter the screen and steal the food, even if it means my certain death!] 

[I knew that the finals must be unusual. I was smart and quick-witted and prepared a small hot pot to watch and eat, happy~]

[Fuck! If you really want to eat hot pot at night, share it with me.]

[I’m so stupid, I only know that I have made instant noodles before turning on my phone, but now I find that the instant noodles in my hand are suddenly tasteless when faced with the delicious food on the phone.]

[+1, the late-night takeaway in my hand suddenly became unsavory also.]

[I gnawed on the last packet of chicken feet with pickled peppers, deluding myself that I actually ate the Mala-style duck feet made by Yu Antong.]

[! Thank you sister for reminding me, I remembered that I also have a pack of chicken feet with pickled peppers. Is this the so-called eating substitute because I can’t afford otherwise? This poor one is shedding tears…] 

[Fu Fengxing made this stewed pork noodles, making me so hungry! The noodles are very tough at first glance, with a layer of stewed meat sauce on it. Agh, I can taste it in my mouth by just thinking about it… slurrppp~] 

[Why should I watch it at night? I’m too masochistic! 】

[I might be masochistic, but I can’t stop. This show is too magical!] 

[Reason tells me that I should wait until tomorrow when I eat to watch the show, but I can’t control my fingers, so I insist on clicking the link.]

[I seem to smell the aroma of this braised pork. Mom, I don’t care! I want to eat! Roll out!!] 

[My mother asked me why I watched the food show with tears in my eyes. All I can say is: crying in gluttony.] 

[Harmful! Stop talking, my box of tissue paper is already wet from crying. (doge)] 

The long video came to an end without knowing it. The host called for the time, and the two contestants put their dishes on the round table surrounded by the judges.

On the round table was drawn a picture of Tai Chi Eight Diagrams, Yu Antong’s dishes were placed in the white part, and Fu Fengxing’s dishes were placed in the black half, clearly distinguishing each other.

In addition to the five resident judges, there are also three top chefs who have been in the industry for many years. They have first-class professional skills. Let them be the judges to evaluate the most critical final game, so as to ensure the maximum professionalism and impartiality of the judging results.

After tasting, several judges began to express their opinions.

“The sauce is bright and sticky, and the pork belly is soft and smooth. Adding taro is a good idea. For hot dishes, I think Yu Antong’s Hongyu Mantang is very delicious. He can bring each ingredient’s shining spot to its highest level, so full of rich and appetizing taste.” 

“I agree with Jiang-laoshi’s opinion. Yu Antong’s hot side-dish is better.” 

“The taste of Yu Antong’s main course is a bit simple. Although it has the aroma of bacon and the sour and crunchy appetizer of bean curd, the taste is not particularly full. Of course, it tastes heavenly combined with his side-dishes, but compared with the braised pork noodles made by Fu Fengxing, I think his dish is more to my liking.”

“I quite like this bacon rice. This rice is perfect with braised pork and Mala-style duck feet. He made it to be eaten as a set, so it should be judged as a set also.” 

“The Mala-style duck feet are great. If it wasn’t for the limited time on the show, it could have been made more delicious.”

“Fu Fengxing’s cold side-dish is more delicious. It’s refreshing.” 

“His is too bland!”

“I don’t agree with your statement…”

When it comes to eating, everyone has different preferences, and the judges had a faint quarrel at the end of the discussion.

After discussing for a few minutes, the eight people failed to reach a consensus and decided to vote separately.

“I vote for Yu Antong!”

“Fu Fengxing!”

“I vote for Fu Fengxing too!”

One of the judges raised his hands like an old urchin. “Absolutely Yu Antong, count two votes for me!”

[Hahaha, this grandpa is so cute.]

[Yes, yes, he is very cute. During the tasting just now, the other judges only tasted one bite, and he took one bite, two bites, three or four bites!]

[After eating, he half-raised his head, looked very serious. And then, he finally said: It’s so delicious!]

[That part made me laugh so hard!]

[I was still looking forward to his evaluation, but after waiting for a long time, two words: really fragrant! It is also the truth.]

The eight judges voted one by one, and the host sang the current votes, “Yu Antong has three votes, Fu Fengxing has three votes, Yu Antong has another vote! Yu Antong leads by four votes, who will be the last vote?! Is there a possibility of a tie !”

As soon as the host finished speaking, the last judge gave the answer, “I vote for…”

He paused for two seconds before deciding: “I vote for Yu Antong!”

The final result was announced, and Yu Antong won the championship with a 5:3 advantage!

“Ah!” Yu Antong, Jiang Yuxiu, and Lin Haoning cheered and hugged each other excitedly.

Worth it! Three months of hard work paid off!

Yu Antong and Fu Fengxing hugged again in a friendly manner.

Fu Fengxing: “Congratulations.”

When the atmosphere calmed down, the host said, “Congratulations to Yu Antong, who passed all the way and became the champion of the first season of “God of Chefs!”. Aside from this prestigious title, your Immortal’s Banquet brand will be included in the enterprise development green channel program opened by the province’s Economic Development Bureau.” 

This project is a project implemented by the government to vigorously support and promote high-quality enterprises in order to improve the economic level of the province. Once qualified to enter the project list, enterprises can enjoy many green preferential policies, and enterprise development will be more efficient and faster.

With this advantage, it is just around the corner that the Immortal’s Banquet will develop from City A to the entire Province A, and even radiate across the country.

The staff presented the trophy, and the host said, “I would like to ask Jiang Liushen-laoshi, the vice president of the Chinese Chefs Association, to present the award.” 

The gold-plated trophy is in the shape of a figure wearing a chef’s top hat and a chef’s uniform. On the black base are engraved two lines of inscriptions in gold, and the line with smaller fonts reads “Here Comes the God of Chefs!”, the upper line is Yu Antong’s name written in two sizes larger.

This is his honor.

The white-haired and child-like Jiang Liushen smiled kindly. He took the trophy and presented it to Yu Antong: “Each generation, talented individuals will emerge one after another. And this generation, I can proudly say that you are one of them. I hope you will not forget your original intention and always maintain your love for food. Inherit, develop, innovate and carry forward!”

Yu Antong bowed deeply. “Thank you Jiang-laoshi for your affirmation and high hopes for this junior. This junior will definitely live up to your advice.”

This is the end of the last episode of the show. The white thank you subtitles slowly rise up from the bottom of the screen, but there is a short tidbit of people leaving the scene at the end of the film that was not cut.

Reluctant to quit, the netizens saw everyone leaving the venue one after another. Yu Antong said a few words to Jiang Yuxiu and Lin Haoning, and then Xing Lixuan came over, and Yu Antong excitedly held up the trophy for Xing Lixuan to see.

Although there was no sound and subtitles, the audience could basically guess what they were talking about.

Probably, Yu Antong was saying: “Look, aren’t I powerful?!”

Xing Lixuan hugged him, Yu Antong happily kissed him twice on the cheek, and the two walked out of the studio holding hands affectionately.

[I didn’t want to quit and was rewarded by this scene. They are too sweet!]

[It’s the end, and you still have to give me a ton of dog food!]

[Belch! I’m not hungry anymore, I’m full with dog food]

[awsl!3啊,我死了 aka A, wo si le. “Ah, I’m dead” What kind of fairy love is this!] 

[Sob sob sob! This single dog wants to fall in love!]

[Brothers and sisters, don’t be envious, go to the official website of Immortal’s Banquet! Rejoice, for we are still blessed!] 


The author has something to say:

Xiao Nian is coming soon!
