Chef Fang

Episode 26

Who made you angry?

You can’t waste food

just because you’re angry.

Mrs. Shen will be mad if she sees this.

She has no time to come.

How do you know?

She is

talking with Ms. Fang right now.

What are they talking about?

Who knows?

Anyway she’s up to no good.

How did that Ms. fang offend you

and make you so angry?

I hate her pretense,

calling Mrs. Shen’s name.

Who knows whether she is good or not?

Hope she won’t do what she did before.

But Mrs. Shen said that

it was a misunderstanding.

Misunderstanding?

She caused that trouble on purpose!

Mrs. Shen is so kind

that she always thinks others are good as well.

She will suffer sooner or later.

A good dish

should have good presentation, smell and taste.

But now Mrs. Huang can’t even stand the smell.

Seems that smell and appearance aren’t feasible.

I have to work hard on the presentation.

Then what will you do?

I don’t know.

But my husband told me yesterday that

I can make it a painting.

I think this might work.

I should give it a try.

Make it a painting?

Do you know Rim River?

Rim River

was drawn by Wang Wei when he lived in Lantian.

In that painting, there are mountains and trees.

The tower and trees are simple and majestic.

There are boats passing between the clouds and rivers.

It has a unique artistic conception.

But does it have anything to do with food?

Of course it does.

You know Rim River,

but do you know Petite Rim River?

What’s that?

It’s a dish.

A dish?

Petite Rim River

is created by a nun

called Fan Zheng in Five Dynasties.

It contains nuts, vegetable paste,

fruits and vegetables and other raw materials.

When assembling it,

we use 20 kinds of landscapes pictures as blueprints,

and then make villas.

It’s like watching beautiful scenery

and reading poems in dishes.

Is there really such an amazing thing?

It’s a pity that I can’t see it.

Are you going to replicate

this Petite Rim River?

It’s exquisite beyond compare.

Most people don’t have the heart to eat it,

let alone a person

who is not interested in food.

Maybe she will really take that as a bonsai.

How will she try it?

That’s true.

So I think

I can make something cute

and make people can’t help eating it.

But it’s really hard.

Mrs. Shen.

What’s wrong?

Lady asked about what we will have for lunch.

Oh! I soaked myself in talking

and lost tract of time.

Yao, I guess you are hungry as well.

You can read books in the study first,

I’ll go prepare some food.

I’ll be back soon.

Thank you for that.

Have you washed the vegetables?

Yes.

Let’s go.

Shen Mansion

Young Master.

Dear, I’m back!

Those two geezers are so unreliable.

Are they really my masters?

Dear…

Mr. Shen.

Why are you here?

I’m here waiting for Yishao.

Mr. Shen, you don’t welcome me?

No.

We don’t usually receive guests,

so I…

No wonder that Yishao said

she hasn’t had any friends

since she came here.

She doesn’t know who she can chat with.

She also asked me to come and chat with her often.

I've been busy with the case recently

that I really have less time with my wife.

I should be punished.

A grown man

should attach importance to his career.

That’s not wrong.

Mr. Shen, don’t blame yourself.

Yao.

Dear, you’re back.

That’s so soon.

Both of them are not at home.

So I came back directly.

The lunch is almost ready.

I’ll ask Shitou to bring it here

and we can have it here.

I've heard that Yishao is excellent at cooking.

It seems that I’m lucky to try it today.

My wife’s cooking is the best.

I’m afraid that after you eat this meal,

the chefs in Fang Mansion

will be under great pressure.

In that case,

I should come here for free meals every day.

Yishao, please don’t drive me away then.

I won’t.

Pakchoi, India wormwood, bamboo shoots.

That’s all.

Little Stammer.

Young Master.

Send this list to Cloud House

and tell them

my wife will go there in two days.

Ask them to prepare the materials on the list.

OK.

Wait.

Remember to send it to Mr. Jia personally.

Great! Finally, this is done!

Our hard work these days isn’t in vain.

I can’t be sure if it will work

until Mrs. Huang tries it.

If it fails,

I don’t know what else I can do.

If this doesn’t work,

I’m afraid that no one can cure her illness.

I wish my father were here.

Who said that?

Even if father were still alive,

you are still the top chef.

My wife is the best in my heart.

Cloud House

Mrs. Shen is so great.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen.

Mr. Jia,

have you prepared all the materials I need?

Yes. All of them arrived in the morning.

They are fresh.

Mr. and Mrs. Huang are waiting for you.

Let’s go inside now.

Shitou.

You, Lian and Little Stammer

go get ready in the kitchen. Remember that?

Yes, Mrs. Shen, don’t worry.

Your Highness, they’re here.

Please.

Please come in.

Mrs. Huang, don’t move.

This is...

He is my husband.

I’m Shen Yong

Mr. Shen is the son of Shen Yibo,

the Magistrate of Dongxiang.

Greetings.

Mr. Shen, have a seat.

I need to thank you for this.

Please don’t mention it.

Since I’ve promised you,

I’ll try my best.

Mrs. Shen, do you have

any good idea this time?

I did make some dishes these days

and I want to give them a try.

But I’m not sure

if it works.

Don’t worry. We were strangers originally.

I’m really grateful

that you agreed to help us.

OK. I’ll go prepare them now.

Dear,

let’s go.

See you.

Dear, what’s wrong?

It makes me feel weird.

Why did Mr. Huang

speak in that tone?

He asked you for help,

but he didn’t even speak warmly to you.

His wife is ill. He must be worried.

It’s nothing strange.

Maybe I overthink it.

Dear, I’ll go find father and Shen Jie.

You can come to me when you finish this.

OK.

Mrs. Shen, it’s ready now?

Yes, we can start now.

It’s too much, I...

Don’t worry.

They look more in number

but there isn’t much food inside.

I promise that you won’t feel disgusting

when you smell it.

Do you want to have a try?

By the way,

they are not for you to eat.

I can’t eat them?

You can have a look first. If you like them,

they you can eat them.

Is that OK?

Do you like it?

They look so pretty.

Are they really pastries?

They don’t even have any smell.

I grind glutinous rice water into pulp,

then dry it to get the powder,

finally make the doughs

and steam them.

You feel sick?

I’m fine. I just choked.

Then, shall we go on?

Is it really food?

It looks like a painting.

Mrs. Shen’s cooking is really amazing.

Her carving skill alone

is already the best in the city.

I’m flattered.

There is a dish left.

Would you like to try it?

Sure. What is it?

Is it really food?

Can I have a try?

You want to eat it?

I’ve never seen a dish like this before.

I really want to know

how a beautiful dish like this

will taste.

Can I?

Of course.

It looks beautiful,

but it’s cold.

Please don’t have too much.

I know.

How is it?

Can I

try these two as well?

Of course!

But you haven’t had enough food for half a year,

I’m afraid it’s bad for you

to eat too much cold food.

It’s the finest osmanthus!

The fish is cold. The rice isn’t easy to digest.

You can have some warm drink

which is good for your stomach.

Cloud House

Mrs. Shen, I should thank you this time.

No big deal.

Mrs. Shen,

thank you a lot.

Mr. Huang, it’s nothing.

Please take this.

No need. It’s my pleasure.

As long as Mrs. Huang can recover,

our hard work is not in vain.

I should thank you for your help.

Mrs. Shen, please take it.

They want to show their gratitude.

Well, thanks for this.

See you.

Dear, what are you doing?

Baking glutinous rice cake.

Is it ready now?

It’s hot.

Dear,

where did you buy it? It’s delicious.

That young vegetable dealer gave it to me.

Young vegetable dealer?

Yes. The vegetables he sells are very fresh.

I buy them from him every day.

He made this glutinous rice cake himself

and asked me to have a try.

Young Master.

Have you followed Yishao to buy vegetables lately?

No, I always... always...

Speak!

I’m with you every day.

What about Lian and Shitou?

They’re always with Mrs. Shen.

They must have been there recently.

Young Master, what’s wrong?

What happened?

Is it your business?

- Young Master... - Is it?

No, no.

Alright, go and find out information

about the man who sells vegetables to Yishao.

A man?

Young Master,

did Mrs. Shen cheat on you?

What? Do you want to be beaten up?

- I can kill you, you know? - No, please.

Then why are you asking about that man?

Yishao is beautiful and simple.

Others will covet her.

What’re you waiting for? Go!

Dear,

what brings you here?

What’s on your mind?

Dear,

you always go out dressing like this?

Yes. What’s wrong?

It’s so low cut. That brat can see everything.

Won’t it be inconvenient?

I think it’s fine.

I always dress like this.

What a misstep!

My wife is being coveted!

Goodness!

I prepared them for Changle Nunnery!

How could you eat them all?

No, no violence!

Stop there!

Don’t beat me! No!

How could you do this?

Fine, you win.

I’ll let it go this time.

Do you feel good now?

Mrs. Shen is so kind.

She even brought me this lotus nut porridge.

And it’s weird.

The imperial kitchen made this before.

But I couldn’t even stand that smell.

But the porridge she made

only has the light scent of honey. It’s amazing.

Then have some more if you like.

I’m afraid

no one is a better cook than her.

Do you remember

that there used to be an imperial cook

who was praised by father

that he was the top cook at that time?

Sure.

Mrs. Shen is his daughter.

Is that true?

I heard that cook

provoked father somehow.

Then he was sentenced to death.

But they didn’t know that he had a daughter.

I only know that because her mother

is Consort Qin.

What?

Your Majesty, Your Highness.

You may rise.

After she came to the palace,

father began to give mother cold shoulders

and became slack in his work.

Many officials complained about this.

My mother

tried to dissuade him from doing that,

but father got angry and left her.

That night,

my mother locked herself up

in her room.

I was worried about her, so I went to find father.

But the guards kept me outside.

After I went back to my mother’s room,

she had committed suicide.

I hate myself that I was too young

to protect my mother then.

I saw the guards

take her body away.

What’s more ridiculous is

that soon after my mother died,

father even wanted to make Consort Qin the Queen.

Hadn’t it been

for the disagreement of Shen Yibo and Qin Zhong,

I’m afraid someone else

would’ve been the Crown Prince.

Shen Yibo?

Is him the magistrate of Dongxiang

that Jia Dahua said?

Yes.

After I became the Crown Prince,

I invited him to work for me several times.

But he refused.

It doesn’t matter.

They helped me

indirectly before.

I don’t mind it.

But now Shen Yibo’s son

married the daughter of Consort Qin.

Don’t you think

fate played a cruel joke on us?

In this case,

why did you ask her here to treat me?

I cherish very few people in my life.

It’s already a pity for me

that I failed to protect my mother.

I won’t let you leave me.

But I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.

Maybe

heaven wants you to forgive each other.

I think your mother

wouldn’t want you to live with hatred.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

How will we forgive each other?

Vegetable dealer?

No way!

Young Master.

How is it?

What did you know?

He is a young man.

Of course! Isn’t it obvious?

Tell me!

Just so-so.

What does that mean?

He is not as handsome as you.

But he is not too bad.

You are two different types.

Different types?

He is... knowledgeable.

You...

have no knowledge.

What did you say?

Your personalities can’t be compared.

Yours is worse than his.

How dare you?

See? You get angry so easily!

Mr. Liu looks so gentle and kind.

Take his job for example,

when he stands there selling vegetables...

What? Like a flower?

He isn’t like any ordinary man.

No, no.

Not only like that.

He has this aureole. Not right either.

Alright, I know.

He is like a god. Go on.

As for knowledge, you’re even worse.

You have only been studying for days.

Let’s put it this way,

can you make a great poem of a cabbage?

Am I insane?

Why would I make a poem of cabbage?

But Mr. Liu can make a poem

of cabbage immediately.

Orchid leaf jade body lying, wearing dew clothes.

Frost climbs up.

Doesn’t it sound beautiful?

Jade body lying? So obscene!

Save it. I know you.

You don’t like those scholars at all.

He must have done something

that impressed you.

Young Master,

you’re really the smartest.

Stop flattering me! Just tell me!

I was peeping at him just now.

Some hoods wanted to bully me.

And I even talked back.

When I was about to be beaten,

Mr. Liu stoop up to help me.

He can fight?

No.

But he is just a scholar.

How could he beat up those hooligans?

That’s why I said he is amazing.

Young Master,

I got to know

what is “talk a good game” today.

You’re in trouble this time.

If I were a woman...

What are you saying?

Nothing!

Young Master,

Mrs. Shen is already your wife.

Why are you still worried?

Legally, we’re a couple,

but not physically.

I need to go now.

Where are you going?

Mrs. Shen made glutinous rice cake.

I want to bring some to Mr. Liu.

He saved my life just now.

Dear,

why did you wake up so early?

What are you doing?

Well, dear, are you going to the market later?

Let me go with you.

Won’t you need to study?

Mother is doing alms-giving a tomorrow

and asked you to make vegetarian dishes, right?

I can go help you to carry them

in case that you get tired.

Dear, that’s so kind of you!
