Finally, Tang Jian listened to Jian Yue's heartfelt advice and left sadly. Not long after, when Wendong and Jianyue were in chaos in the kitchen, Tang Jian returned and began to command operations like a lord, fighting side by side with Jianyue and Wendong. In the atmosphere of demolition, Jin Ping and Yang Sanhe began to prepare for the sale. Yang Sanhe pretended to be a "nail house" on the surface, but secretly prepared to demolish the house.

2. Although demolition was approaching day by day, Wendong continued to purchase equipment for the restaurant, seriously operated a home-cooked restaurant, designed menus, limited vegetable prices, etc. This kind of caring that she had never seen before surprised even Jian Yue, knowing that Wen Dong was doing it for herself this time.

3. After all the turmoil, Wenxia has now become a discordant voice in the restaurant and began to oppose opening the restaurant. However, she is no longer competing with Jianyue, but is thinking about Jianyue. Advise her to put down what needs to be put down, and communicate with Jianyue face to face with a sincere attitude.

Wen Xia: “I don’t regret what I did before (triangular relationship between Wen Dong, Wen Xia, and Jian Yue), because I do like Wen Dong, so you don’t have to regret what you did before. Regret over those things...

Jian Yue was moved. Wen Xia officially resigned as the front office manager of the hotel. While Wen Yao was in a hurry, Yang Lijie returned and took over as the foreman and front office manager. .

4. His second uncle supported opening a restaurant and also donated a medicinal recipe.

5. When Luo Hanguang returned, he was still trying to save face, but in fact, all his inheritance had been lost in the South African diamond mine.

To Luo Hanguang's surprise, Wendong did not break his promise. Luo Hanguang agreed to share the account with Luo Hanguang, but Luo Hanguang was a bit stupid - this was like giving timely help to the bankrupt Luo Hanguang.

7. Luo Hanguang still pursues Wenxia. This time, although Wenxia has already left. Although Wen Dong felt a little shaken, he finally rejected Luo Hanguang.

8. Luo Hanguang discovered that Wenjia Cuisine was famous, and counterfeiters swarmed in. Luo Hanguang planned to organize a Wenjia Cuisine. Competition. It can not only distinguish the authenticity, but also promote Wenjia cuisine. Of course, he also subconsciously strives to win Wenxia's favor.

Luo Hanguang invites everyone to participate in the preparations for the food competition held at the hotel. At the meeting, he gave a special speech as the director of the competition. According to Luo Hanguang's design, the preliminary competition was held at "Wenzong Restaurant" (a relatively large restaurant among the fake Wenjia cuisine), and the semi-finals were held. "Wenjia" chose an influential place to hold the final (Luo Hanguang boasted that it would be held at the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City).

Luohanguang was very eloquent and urged Wendong to participate. He felt that Wenjia agreed. Definitely

Winning, just show it to Jian Yue - we can succeed

Jian Yue is not that interested and starts to think about the innovation of home cooking because of Luo Han Guangyou. "Previous record", the old trick is repeated this time; Jian Yue and Wen Xia both expressed opposition. Tang Jian was a little timid about the competition and had no idea whether to participate. Only Wen Dong supported it.

The preparatory meeting is over and the guests are welcome. After all. Luo Hanguang sneaked out of the six-star hotel, went to a small restaurant opposite to buy four taels of steamed buns, and then checked into a small hotel.

Preliminary Round

The competition begins, and the topic is home-cooked. The dishes range from complex to simple, but the difficulty becomes more and more difficult. High (one required dish, one optional dish)

Later "Wenyuan Little Chef". In the preliminary round, he became Wenjiacai's rival.

Many fake restaurants and even the menu design are exactly the same as Wenjia cuisine. The largest one is Wenzong Restaurant’. The chef is none other than Li Yongquan, the "Five Great Chefs". At the same time, other counterfeit "Wenjia Cuisine" also used various methods to steal Wenjia's art, but Jianyue discovered it by identifying the car number.

3. Luo Hanguang continued to confess his love to Wenxia. Although Wenxia refused again, she was no longer as determined as before. She agreed to assist Luo Hanguang in organizing the competition.

4. Wendong carefully prepared for the competition and no longer looked like a "superfluous person".

Jianyue encouraged Wen Dong and volunteered to persuade Gong Shifang to serve as a judge in the competition. She wanted to complete the innovation of Wen's home cooking with Gong Shifang's help, ensure the success of Wen's cuisine, and certify Wen Ting through Gong Shifang. The real reason why Xiang killed He Hongqi.

For Jianyue, ‘conservatism’ is no longer important, and ‘innovation’ is the top priority. ('Conservative' is to attract new customers, and 'innovative' is to attract old customers.)

5. Jian Yue's earnest attempts to persuade Gong Shifang failed, and Gong Shifang flatly refused. He was even more vocal about "Wen Tingxiang killed He Hongqi".

6. The results of the preliminary round were nine to four, and Wenjiacai entered the semi-finals. In the process, it was discovered that ‘Wenyuan Little Chef’ was a strong rival in the competition. The 'mysterious woman' Ning Xin officially enters Jian Yue's field of vision. Competition items: two dishes, one each with optional rules. The prescribed dish is "Shredded Winter Bamboo Shoots and Pork Loin".

Competing on knife skills, thickness matching of main and auxiliary ingredients, heat, taste, plating, etc. For the optional dish, Wen Jia chose "Wen's Sliced ??Ganjian".

Episode 23

Semi-final (four dishes and one soup)

1. Semi-final Location: Wenjia. Content of the competition: Each team will design and prepare a table of home-cooked meals with four dishes and one soup. Result: Four out of two.

2. In the semi-finals, Wendong competed with other "Wenjia cuisine". Jianyue carefully designed four dishes and one soup. "Wenyuan Little Chef" always surpassed Wenjia in one or two details, which caused a stir. Attention Jian Yue and Wen Dong.

3. Tang Jian was serious about cooking for the first time and began to think of ways to steal food. Wen Yao joined in and the two continued to fight.

4. Jian Yue designed a cheap, high-quality and luxurious "hundred-face" wedding banquet for Jin Ping. Jin Ping's shop was ready to be demolished but it was not demolished. Yang Sanhe was worried about Wendong's belongings.

5. Luo Hanguang used all his money to buy a 10-carat large diamond ring for Wenxia. Wenxia accidentally discovered the truth about Luo Hanguang's downfall (Luo Hanguang was bankrupt and lived in a small hotel). Wenxia was deeply moved and accepted Luo Hanguang at Jin Ping's wedding banquet.

6. Jian Yue discovered that the core of the "Wenyuan Little Chef" team from the south was a woman (Ning Xin) and informed Tang Jian.

Even though Tang Jian is now very confident in his cooking skills, because his opponent is too strong, he still does not hesitate to "seduce" the mysterious woman with Latin dance on the dance floor. Wen Yao was jealous and realized that she really fell in love with Tang Jian.

7. On the last day of the semi-finals, Wenjiacai and Wenyuan Chef had a hard battle.

8. In the general review of the competition, the judges had different opinions on the merits of Wenjia Cuisine and Wenyuan Chef, and they argued endlessly. At the critical moment, Gong Shifang appeared and pointed out that the taste of "Wenyuan Little Chef" was authentic, and the design of four dishes and one soup was even more exciting. It was authentic Wenjia cuisine, and Wenjia Restaurant almost failed to win.

The four dishes and one soup were Jian Yue’s design, which was decided by Gong Shifang and lost to the ‘Wenyuan Chef’. The most important concept of Jianyue's design has a fatal weakness, which is also the consistent weakness of Jianyue's character and mentality - sparing no effort, leaving no room for success, and being too nervous in order to win. Once this weakness was exposed by Gong Shifang, Jian Yue felt something in her heart. With Wendong's help, Jianyue revised the design and barely passed this level. All this made Jian Yue realize more deeply that originality, plainness and letting nature take its course are the essence of home cooking and the soul of Wenjia cuisine.

9. Gong Shifang proposed the final topic: cabbage.

Finals

Title: Cabbage.

2. As soon as the cabbage question came up, everyone knew that it was a soup competition, and the "Wenyuan Little Chef" was ready and prepared carefully.

3. Jian Yue and Wen Dong also started to work on soup, but they couldn't get the point. Gong Shifang appears and offers a very complicated move. Everyone finally calmed down. Wendong began to "make soup" strictly according to the instructions.

4. At the beginning of the finals, Jian Yue found that the cost of the soup stock was too high and did not meet the requirements of home cooking. She finally realized what Gong Shifang had criticized her in the rematch: plain, original, let nature take its course! When the battle came, I switched to water to cook the cabbage, which actually won the day.

At the end of the final, the judges' verdict was 2 to 2. Everyone thought that Ning Xin's dish would definitely win, but Gong Shifang was noncommittal. Ning Xin stood up and believed that Jianyue was better than her and could meet the requirements of the home-cooked competition.

Gong Shifang spoke last, made a mysterious comment, and finally said to Jian Yue: The future generations are to be feared!

The Wen family won.

The conversation between Jian Yue and Ning Xin revealed the past: Ning Xin left her parents to study in the United States because her mother did not want her daughter to spend her whole life taking care of Wen Tingxiang and herself like herself, so Ning Xin didn't understand that she deliberately drove her daughter away, and felt aggrieved. Only now did she realize her mother's painstaking efforts.

When the two elders passed away, Jian Yue called Ning Xin (Ning Jingwen originally asked Jian Yue not to call). Ning Xin promised to rush back to visit the two elders immediately, but in the end, she wasted time and failed to call the two elders. Send to the end. Ning Xin said that Jian Yue died for the two old people and that she was Wen Tingxiang's "real daughter". Ning Xin felt guilty for not honoring her parents properly and held a lifelong grudge. Ning Xin's evaluation and self-blame of Jianyue touched Jianyue's guilt about her biological parents and Xie Yunsong, and she finally felt relieved. Through the conversation with Ning Xin, Jianyue discovered that with Wen Tingxiang's personality and character, he would never kill He Hongqi.

Funeral Banquet

1. Because of the victory in the competition, the restaurant business reached its peak. The east courtyard is busy, but the west courtyard is preparing for demolition. The contrast is sharp.

2. Ning Xin came to the door, met Wen Jia, and told Jian Yue to send Wen Tingze to his death (the two have already said it in episode 24, so we can leave it to Wen Jia here) and other matters: Compared to me, she is the daughter of the Wen family... She said that she did not want any property of the Wen family, and offered to hand over the management of her restaurant Wenyuan Kitchen to Jianyue and others, and return to Belgium herself (Jian Yue accepted, but made two demands) The store was combined into one, and a more suitable place should be found to open a new store)

3. Second uncle Wen Tingze finally fell ill (stomach cancer, but it was a In the early stage, it can be cured with persistent treatment), and proposed to hold a "funeral banquet" in the Wen family's old house. As soon as these words came out, the whole family was in an uproar. Headed by Wen Dong, they all thought that the old man was frightened by the disease and gave up hope of treatment. They tried various ways to persuade him. Wendong began to restrict the old man's food intake in preparation for the gastrectomy; Luo Hanguang got some advanced high-tech treatment equipment or methods, which made the old man very happy (short paragraph, don't be too long, just make it exciting), The old man finally expressed his wish: I will be born here, live here, and die here. It is not that I have lost confidence, but it is a farewell to the old courtyard, the Wen family and myself. Only then did everyone feel relieved and concentrated on studying and preparing for the funeral banquet

4. Ask Gong Shifang for advice on the details of the funeral banquet. Gong Shifang introduced the big diner Zheng Yanting, and Wen Dong and Jianyue devoted themselves to asking for advice on a complete funeral banquet. The rules and dishes must be implemented one by one.

5. During the handling process, Wendong and Jianyue mentioned that the restaurant was about to be demolished, and they should go through divorce procedures and find a marriage certificate. When it was missing, Jianyue suspected that Wendong had hidden it (Wendong mentioned above) (I was unwilling to get a divorce), Wen Dongbao couldn't find it. After searching for it, he found the marriage certificate of his second uncle and his second aunt. The date coincided with the time of the funeral banquet. It was the 50th wedding anniversary. The two thought about it. Transform the funeral banquet into a joyous one (I won’t tell you how, leaving it in suspense).

6. At the same time, Wendong and Jianyue were invited at the same time to introduce their dates to each other. Wen Xia found Jian Yue, and Luo Hanguang found Wen Dong, and each forced them to go on a blind date: seeing that the contract marriage was about to end, both of them should have new considerations. The two of them went for it, only to find that the so-called blind date was the other person - Wen Xia and others used this method to bring Wen Dong and Jian Yue into real union. The two were embarrassed and didn't say anything. When they returned to Wen's house, they found the marriage certificate. Neither of them said anything about whether they should divorce or be good.

7. The news spread that the Wen family was going to hold a funeral banquet. Because of the signature Wen family cuisine and the reputation of Gong Shifang and Zheng Yanting, the gourmets and chefs in the city wanted to try it. Soon, as a result, many "relatives, friends, and old acquaintances" appeared one after another in the Wen family, and they all insisted on attending the funeral banquet by asking for connections, carrying various gifts, and it was hilarious. Wendong and Jianyue dealt with it together, and finally determined that the participants were Wen's family, neighbors such as Jin Ping, and colleagues from the Pingju Opera Troupe.

8. The funeral banquet begins. The four-fourth table and the dishes are indeed unique. Finally, based on what Zheng said, the funeral banquet turned into a diamond wedding anniversary, which was a great success.

9. After the funeral banquet, Gong Shifang told Wendong Jianyue another layer of the truth about the invitation to Zheng Yanting: Zheng Yanting organized the funeral for He Hongqi, and Wen Tingxiang was in charge! Tell the truth about He Hongqi's death wish: He Hongqi went to Gong Shifang before he died, claiming that he had been fatally injured and asked Gong Shifang to collect his body. Gong Shifang did not forgive him and kicked him out of the house. Later, He Hongqi went to find Wen Tingxiang, that stormy night. Later, He Hongqi disappeared and everyone in the cooking world yelled at him, but Wen Tingxiang held a white banquet for his junior brother. It was also a banquet with no guests.

From this, Wen Dong and Jian Yue analyzed the truth of the stormy night - He Hongqi confessed on his deathbed, Wen Tingxiang collected He Hongqi's body and buried it. Wen Dong proposed that he believed that his father's generation was a grudge rather than a grudge, and he understood his biological father and adoptive father.

10. The second uncle saw that Wendong had completely changed. After the funeral banquet, he was in a good mood, no pain at all, and his physical condition had never been better.

11. The family was dressed neatly and formally took a family photo in the Wenjia West courtyard. Jian Yue and Wen Dong took a group photo together in the east courtyard.

Jin Ping and Yang Sanhe continued to run the small shop in the same place. Many tables, chairs, benches, and decorative posters from Wenjia Restaurant were taken over by Yang Sanhe. The small shop was nondescript.

In the hustle and bustle of Yang Sanhe's new store decoration, Wen Dong silently began to cook his soup, echoing the first episode and running through the entire episode.

2. Wen Xia and Luo Hanguang left to create a "magnificent future together."

The two booked air tickets to Canada, and Luo Hanguang's friend immigrated to Canada and opened a He joined the company and strongly invited Luo Hanguang to join.

Wendong asked Luo Hanguang about the company’s business, and Luo Hanguang said it was real estate. Wendong reminds Luo Hanguang that real estate is not easy to do. With Luo Hanguang's past style, be careful of being deceived. Luo Hanguang was confident: "Absolutely no problem!" Give Wen Dong a map of the solar system and an astronomical telescope. Tell Wendong that the real estate his friend does is solar system real estate, absolutely safe! We have applied to register the land property rights of several major planets in the solar system (except the earth) in the Canadian court. We are currently developing a lunar project. How much is one square meter? Many people around the world have ordered land on the moon... Listen, Wen Dong She could only shake her head and told Wenxia: We don't care about anything else. As long as someone asks Luo Hanguang for money, don't give it! Wenxia was very confident: I know, I have all the bankbooks!

3. Tang Jian and Wen Yao found a new store location, leaving only the original name and plaque. With the support of Jianyue, Wen Dong and their second uncle, they officially registered Wenjia Cuisine and prepared to open it. The new Wenjia restaurant promotes Wenjia's home cooking.

I found a restaurant that I was quite satisfied with (it was not big in scale, and the restaurant had already put up a transfer sign). The location, the house, etc. were all good. When I walked in to take a look, the business was very poor. When I went to the back kitchen to look at the kitchen, I found that See Li Yongquan hosting in the back! When Li Yongquan saw Tang Jian, he wanted to show off the master's reputation, but Tang Jian told him that he was going to take over the store and become the boss! Li Yongquan begged him to stay: he really couldn't survive. Tang Jian agreed, but on one condition: Li Yongquan asked him to be his teacher and learn from scratch. Li Yongquan could only agree.

4. The ending of Wendong Jianyue: Jianyue and Wendong solved the final mystery based on the mysterious dates and marks in the "secret recipe", and finally found the place where Wen Tingxiang buried Wendong's biological father He Hongqi. The location - the kiln pit cemetery back then, is now a CBD with high-rise buildings.

The two fulfilled the contract here, went through the divorce procedures, and divided the accounts. Jianyue got the 400,000 that Wendong promised in the contract.

Jian Yue asked Wendong: I have bought my ticket.

In the marriage office, the two divorced. The person who handled the divorce (same as episode 18) also advised the two of them. They really felt that they were quite suitable. It was in their hearts, but they still divorced peacefully.

CBD, handover of accounts, etc. After that, Jian Yue took out Wen Tingxiang’s handwritten recipe that Ning Xin had brought back, and the old recipe that was left behind and returned it to Wendong: I’ll give you a final gift before I leave. Same thing.

Jian Yue told Wen Dong that she had solved the last mystery: the place where the congratulatory red flag was buried was among the high-rise buildings. Wen Dong sighed.

Wendong: I have something for you too!

5. In the old courtyard, Wendong treated Jianyue to his last meal, hot pot.

After finishing eating, Wen Dong brought out a blue and white jar.

On the ruins of Wen's house, Wen Dong handed the jar to Jian Yue.

Wendong: Take her home and cook a good meal for your parents...

Jianyue was leaving, Wendong hesitated for a moment, and finally said goodbye.

Looking at Jian Yue's back, Wen Dong said to himself: I am a "superfluous person".

The "little garlic sprout" next to him tugged at the corner of Wen Dong's clothes and said in a child's tone, using Wen Dong's usual tone: How about we get married?
