In fact, long before the fish was ready, the onlookers already began to swallow. They can't help it, it was just too fragrant. It made them drool and want to grab a piece to taste.

Someone said, "The smell is just too fragrant. There's no need to taste to know that it's delicious. This food is more fragrant than the dishes made by Zhou Laogen."

Many of the onlookers agreed. Most of them had already eaten Zhou Laogen's dish, more or less. The banquet that they prepared are always been full of praises due to Zhou Laogen cooking skills, but after smelling this sauerkraut fish, they can't argue that it is not as good as Zhou Laogen's. It is just too fragrant.

Old Man Wang's hesitation turned into anticipation. After seeing that Li Hehua finally done, he immediately asked, "Can I eat now?"

Li Hehua nodded, "Yes, you can try it."

As soon as these words came out, the people from Wang family took out their chopsticks. They stretch out their hands and couldn't wait to pick up the fish meat.

Old Man Wang took the bite, he held it for two seconds, then opened his eyes slightly. He glanced at Li Hehua, retracted his gaze the next second, and continued to stretch out his chopsticks.

The rest of the Wang family were the same. They keep on eating for a while.

The onlookers have been waiting for the Wang family to comment, but the family didn't say anything. What does it mean to bury their heads and keep on eating? They couldn't help but want to eat too.

Aunt Cao, who brought Li Hehua, couldn't bear it anymore. She asked Old Man Wang, "Old Man Wang, what's the matter? Why don't you say anything?"

Old Man Wang glanced at Aunt Cao and said nothing. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he stretched out his chopsticks and took his time to reply, "It's so delicious, I've never eaten such delicious fish."

Old Man Wang's youngest son also said, "This is not a fish, I've never eaten such a delicious dish."

The people around gasped by the words of the father and son of the Wang family.

Is it really that delicious? So exaggerated?

Everyone's saliva already flowed all over the place but they can only watch the Wang family eat. It's really uncomfortable.

A person who is thick-skinned licked his lips and said, "Old man Wang, can you give me a taste too? My saliva is almost dry."

As a result, the Wang family ignored them and let their chopsticks fly to the dish. In a short period of time, the pot of sauerkraut fish is gone. Even the sauerkrauts were cleanly eaten.

Old Man Wang wiped his mouth and said to the people around him, "Sorry, it's all gone."

These words made the onlookers angry but they can't do anything about it.

Li Hehua stayed silent for a while until they had finished eating. She then asked with a smile, "How is it? Are my cooking skills goo enough for your family?"

This time, Old Man Wang did not have the same alienation as before. After thinking about it, he gave Li Hehua a thumbs up enthusiastically and said, "I admire you. Your cooking skills are really great! I'll leave the preparation of the banquet of our family to you."

Li Hehua smiled.

Aunt Wang asked, "How much do you charge for cooking?" Such great cooking skill is definitely not cheap. They can't afford it if it's too expensive.

Li Hehua didn't know the price so she just said, "I'll charge the same fee as the others. I will charge as much as Zhou Laogen fees, and will never charge too expensive."

The Wang family laughed happily when they heard this. Old Man Wang said, "Then let's settle this. According to the money charged by Zhou Laogen, a table of dishes is five wen."

Li Hehua asked, "Then may I know how many tables will your family prepare this time?"

Old Man Wang stretched out his hands, "My family will prepare ten tables."

In this way, she can earn fifty wen in one go. According to one wen per steamed bun, the price is still acceptable. Li Hehua then nodded, "That's settled. I'll come over early in the morning at the time of the banquet. "

After that, Li Hehua discussed the specific details with the Wang family. She explained the vegetables and seasonings that the Wang family should buy. It was not until noon that she's able to returned home.
