(Shen's Diner) Drumsticks and chicken cutlets!

Are they really so delicious?

You can go in and try them.

Go in and taste them.

Dad, Mom, the dishes are ready.

Hurry up.

Coming right away.

Hurry up.

Careful.

Alright.

Swift Threads is coming.

(Table 3)

14 qian.

Who in ancient times

could make Liangpi?

Who in ancient times

could make instant noodles?

Who in ancient times

could fry

chicken cutlets bigger than one's face?

Only I, Shen Jianshe.

I'm uniquely talented.

Enough.

If we were in a time-travel novel,

you would be nothing.

The male protagonists

are all better than you.

The people in this era

just haven't eaten these things.

You don't have any real skills.

Stop boasting.

You can't say that.

You can't always put me down.

You should be nicer to me.

I'm a genius chef now.

Without me,

could this diner have been so successful?

Shen Jianshe,

once you open a diner,

how come you claim

all the credit for yourself?

Your contribution is nothing, okay?

Your daughter took care

of the decoration and work-shirts.

She taught you how to make instant noodles

through Laomian's methods.

You're the talented one?

How can you be so full of yourself?

Yes, yes.

However good my daughter is,

she is still my daughter.

There's a matter of genetics here.

Dad, Mom.

My genes are good.

The diner is full. We need to hurry.

Really?

It's full again?

It's full?

Hurry up.

Try some of this.

Golden Crisp,

with its thin and crispy texture,

paired with this sauce,

tastes even sweeter.

Fragrant Skin is also very refreshing.

It's really delicious.

You eat so much,

yet you don't gain any weight.

What's wrong?

Your family is in the fabric business,

yet you don't want to spare

an extra bolt of cloth for yourself?

What are you talking about?

I just didn't save the fabric

for you last time.

Are you still holding a grudge?

You may look plump,

but you're too full.

You...

I remember

you once made the bed

you were selling collapse.

What are you talking about?

What?

Let's go out if you dare.

Don't fight.

- Let's go. - Come out.

Both of you, let go.

Come out. Let's go.

Stop arguing, stop arguing.

Everyone, everyone.

Look, look.

Let go.

Manager Zhao, Manager Liu,

you've both gained some weight.

It fits the fashion of our dynasty.

How cute you look.

I'm like Manager Zhang and Lady Xu,

who eat and eat but never gain weight.

It's really worrying us.

Stop arguing.

It happens that I've been meaning

to talk to both of you.

The seats you were just sitting on

are called chairs,

much more comfortable than before.

You two are well-traveled.

You can tell they're good stuff, right?

I have the blueprints here.

If you want to get into this business,

I can teach you.

When you sell them to others,

just give me 20% of the profit.

So...

Well.

But these chairs

need cushions on top.

You'll also have to need fabric

from Manager Zhang and Lady Xu.

We're all friends here.

We should make money together.

What's the use of quarreling?

Lady Shen makes sense.

Manager Zhang,

I was wrong before.

Please forgive me.

Lady Shen,

I'll cover the meal

for both of them.

How about that?

- Sure. - Okay.

Then...

Well.

Auntie, you're so amazing.

I was so scared just now.

(Handsome Shen)

Handsome,

see you again tomorrow.

Take care.

Handsome, Handsome.

Handsome.

You must be

Widow Li from Liuyun Alley.

Are you also here today

to consult about romantic matters?

Yes, yes.

Handsome,

what are these round things

on your face?

They look so intriguing.

In my hometown,

they're called sunglasses.

Don't they make me

look even more handsome?

Sunglasses?

Well.

Look carefully.

You truly are inventive,

Handsome.

Here's the thing.

I've been thinking of remarrying,

but I have some concerns.

What concerns?

I think

you should remarry.

I've been married three times,

each time outliving my husband.

So what?

That's quite a skill of yours.

The neighbors

all say I'm unlucky.

Butcher Zhou has proposed to me,

but I'm afraid I'll harm him, too.

Why care

about the neighbors?

Do they raise Butcher Zhou

or you?

No.

So, why should you mind them?

You only live once.

You just need to open up to yourself.

Besides,

it's not you who's dying.

Why be afraid?

Go ahead and remarry.

I'll take your advice.

Thank you, Handsome.

Handsome, Handsome.

Handsome, Handsome.

One by one, okay?

Alright.

There are so many guests,

and he's still chatting there.

Auntie, should I call Dad

to come and help?

Never mind.

I've never seen your dad

- so successful. - Is it done?

Who knows how long it'll last?

Let him be.

Luckily, we have Deyuan now.

Or you'd have to help Grandpa

and Grandma with cooking and serving,

and deal with guests' quarrels.

You'd be busy as a bee.

The sun hat is too big.

I'll have to ask my mother to adjust it.

Milady,

this hairpin is so beautiful.

It cost ten qian.

You're so good to me.

We've been open for over ten days,

and it's been so tiring.

It's just a hairpin.

What matters most is that you like it.

Ever since my parents passed away,

I've come to Yong'an.

After all these years,

this is my first time visiting West Market.

Milady,

besides my mother,

you're the first person who's been so kind to me.

I'll definitely repay you.

Your happiness

is the best repayment for me.

I'll take it.

Let me.

You admire your hairpin,

and I'll carry it.

Then help me with the hat.

I'll take it.

Milady,

up ahead is Yunlai Tavern.

I'm a bit scared.

Didn't you just call Feng Li by his name

and say you'd sue him to death?

Why are you scared now?

I was desperate back then,

and I don't know

how I dared to call his name.

You must always be so brave.

What can he do to you?

Let's go.

(Yunlai Tavern) Look.

All these new dishes.

(Fragrant Skin) Look.

(Brocade-Wrapped Turtle) The name is quite interesting.

These dishes look just like those from Shen's Diner.

They do look similar.

(Swift Threads, Golden Crisp)

Golden Crisp?

Swift Threads?

Even Carefree Drink is here.

This...

Everyone,

welcome.

Welcome to Yunlai Tavern.

Our dishes here

are incomparable to those

from smaller establishments.

Take this Swift Threads,

for example.

While others use

only mutton bones

for the broth,

we add chicken

and fish bones,

simmering

for a whole day.

It even includes some fresh meat and leafy greens.

And the price

is just half of what others charge.

What?

Just half?

I must give it a try.

Yes, yes.

Welcome, welcome.

Please, come in.

Inside, please.

Welcome.

- Please. - Inside, please.

Welcome, welcome.

Inside, please.

Lady Shen.

What?

Do you still have the mood

to protect this little maid?

If you ask me,

you should hurry back to your diner

and see how many guests

are left.

Come on, inside, please.

Welcome, welcome.

Welcome.

Inside, please.

Please, please.

(Shen's Diner)

Let's have some drinks at my place.

- Sure, let's go. - Let's go.

(Welcome)

I know, I know.

I've found out.

What have you found out?

I know why no guests are coming here.

Yunlai Tavern

has copied all our dishes

and is selling them at half price.

How shameless.

Look at them.

Folks, let's have a meeting.

Let me say something.

Do you know what moment it is now?

It's a moment of life and death.

It's the darkest hour.

It's...

Where's Jicai?

Where has Jicai gone?

Auntie and Deyuan went out shopping

and haven't come back yet.

This girl.

She doesn't show up

at such a serious family meeting.

It doesn't matter. Let me continue.

Since we've decided

to stay and run the diner,

we must fight

for our pride.

This isn't the first time Yunlai Tavern has done this.

They copied

my Jianbing Guozi before.

Now, they've reached out to me again.

Faced with such malicious competition,

such an unprecedented,

cruel business war,

we must win this battle.

We must win.

My blood is boiling.

For so many years,

I've developed so many dishes,

and they've easily plagiarized them.

We definitely can't

tolerate this.

What have you developed?

They're some ordinary modern dishes.

It's normal for them to replicate.

Replicate...

Don't speak without raising your hands

during the meeting.

Mom, don't be angry.

- Don't stoop to his level. - Grandma.

Dad, I just thought of something.

Say it.

You, sit down.

Since Yunlai Tavern

can copy our dishes,

we can copy back, right?

An eye for an eye.

That makes sense.

I've already replicated

four famous dishes from Yunlai Tavern:

Fish Fermented in Milk,

Chopstick-tip Spring,

Changshan Congee,

and Brocade-Wrapped Big Turtle.

Please taste them

and give valuable feedback.

Respecting the elderly and caring for the young is our traditional virtue.

Let's have Yangyang go first.

- Yangyang. - Respecting

the elderly comes first.

Caring for the young comes after.

Grandma should go first.

I had too much for breakfast,

and I'm not hungry now.

But I remember

the four dishes from Yunlai

didn't look like this.

Son,

you came up with this idea.

You should taste it.

- I... - Wait.

Wait a minute.

What do you mean?

Do your dad a favor.

Taste it.

Gongcai,

pick anything you like.

- Eat. - Fine, I'll taste it.

I'll try this one.

I'll have this.

Take a big bite.

Dad,

are you going to lose a tooth?

Alright, don't force it.

It really is a bit hard on the teeth.

Well, Dad, I'll try this congee.

Look.

It's good...

I'm sorry, Dad.

I really couldn't help it.

Your cooking is so consistent.

Unless you've practiced many times,

every time you make a new dish,

the taste is really unbearable.

At least show some respect for me, okay?

Don't forget

how you grew up.

If it weren't for me cooking for you...

We spent a whole string of coins

on these ingredients.

How expensive!

Look, it's all wasted.

You haven't even tasted it.

How can you say these dishes

are wasted?

Are you

stereotypical

in your impression

of me?

Enough.

Let's think

of other ways

to deal with Yunlai Tavern.

Come out and help!

We're back.

- Auntie. - Jicai's back.

Auntie's finally back.

- Come on. - Dad, the tasting today

just ends here.

(Shen's Diner)

We're back.

Jicai, where have you been?

It took you quite a while.

Jicai,

what's in this burlap sack?

What a big bag.

- Why bring back a big iron pot? - What?

This...

It is the big weapon

to beat Yunlai Tavern.

Auntie,

you were gone for so long

just to buy pork and a pot?

After Deyuan and I finished shopping,

we passed by Yunlai's entrance

and found out they copied our dishes.

So, I dragged Deyuan to order half a sow.

Pork isn't popular here,

and good pork is hard to find.

We had to go out of city to get it.

Lady Shen said we needed an iron pot.

The blacksmith said

the furnace wasn't hot enough,

and he couldn't make the right curvature.

Luckily, Blacksmith Wang from West Market

was unable to bear Lady's coaxing

and managed to make it.

I see.

I was wondering why it took you two so long

just to buy groceries.

Wait, wait.

I still don't get it.

How did the pork and iron pot

become the big weapon to beat

Yunlai Tavern?

Yes.

Yunlai copied our dishes,

used better ingredients,

but set a lower price.

They're trying to squeeze us

out of business with low prices.

It's definitely a loss for them,

but they can afford it.

Yangyang, I still don't understand

what you're saying.

You have to believe in your learning ability.

You'll catch up eventually.

It's okay, Deyuan.

You'll learn from me more,

and you'll understand.

Alright, stop bothering her.

Jicai, keep going.

I still don't get it.

If we compete in the same way,

we can't win.

But as I mentioned before,

we can make affordable gourmet.

We'll offer good value for money

and constantly innovate.

Pork is cheap in our dynasty.

If we use pork to create new dishes,

we can keep the costs extremely low.

But many people don't eat pork.

They think it has a strong odor.

Yes, they don't eat pork here.

Deyuan, you like Lard Rice, right?

I didn't have much money.

I wasn't too picky

or concerned. But others...

But our business

is for the common folk.

If we make the pork delicious

and offer it at a low price

to fill one's stomach,

who would refuse?

Wait.

I think I get it now.

You mean...

To make pork delicious,

we first need to remove the strong smell from it.

This iron pot

is for that, right?

First, blanch the pork,

and then stir-fry it in the iron pot with spices.

It should work.

That actually makes sense.

Our original signature dishes

were easy to copy, right?

But with the special treatment using the iron pot

and so many ways to cook pork,

they probably

can't copy it anymore.

That's right.

Good.

Very good.

Iron Pot Pork.

In our dynasty,

who else can do it?

Who else?

Who else can do it?

No one else.

Right?

If we really

promote this pork dish,

our diner

will be truly remarkable.

We'll make a name for ourselves

and stand alone in our dynasty.

(Today's new dish: Agate Meat) Come and have a look.

Shen's Diner has a new dish.

(Shen's Diner)

Passers-by,

don't miss out.

We're introducing a new dish today:

Agate Meat.

For all the guests who visit today,

we'll give a free taste.

It's free!

It smells quite good.

Very good.

It smells good.

- Never seen this before. - It smells good.

So good.

Agate Meat

looks like pork.

It is pork.

How do you eat pork?

- Can you eat pork? - Yeah.

Pork is so smelly.

How can you eat it?

- Exactly. - Everyone,

Agate Meat

is carefully marinated,

then stewed in rich broth,

- and stir-fried to reduce the sauce. - Yes.

It has completely removed the smell.

It's good value for money,

and you can eat it at ease.

Stir-frying?

What is stir-frying?

Stir-frying is

a special cooking skill

unique to our diner.

Yes, yes.

It smells so good.

She's eating it.

She's really eating it.

Try it.

There really isn't that smell?

No smell at all, very delicious.

No smell at all.

- It's good. - Come on, sir.

Try some.

Have a taste.

Come on, try it.

- I won't eat it. - Try it.

- Let's go. - It's good.

How can you know if you don't try?

Try it.

Sir.

- Have some. - Come on.

You'll definitely like it.

Everyone, try it.

Marbled with fat and lean.

If he won't eat it, I will.

What a pity not to taste.

Such delicious food.

It seems Shen

has lost her mind,

coming up with such a silly idea.

Pork has such a strong smell.

It can't be considered decent.

Yet the Shen family

has put all their hopes on pork.

How foolish

that is.

Yes, yes.

It seems soon

Shen's Diner will have to close.

You'll finally

get your revenge.

It smells so good.

We've only been open for a short time.

Another day without any business.

You have no idea

how mean

the neighbors' words are.

They say Yunlai

has taken our business,

and we've all gone mad,

not even sparing the sows.

The disdain for pork in our dynasty

comes from the top.

The nobles think sows eat leftovers

and consider it cheap,

so they refuse to eat it.

Ordinary people follow suit.

But actually, they just don't know how

to remove the smell from pork,

so pork can't become popular.

To break this notion,

it should also start from the top.

I really think

I need a translator.

What does "from the top"

even mean?

Deyuan,

they'll handle these things.

We just need to pretend to understand.

Just eat.

Actually, I think

"from the top" is harder.

If ordinary people don't eat it,

how can you get the upper class to eat it?

I don't have a way,

but you do, Gongcai.

Me?

Gongcai,

aren't you already an opinion leader?

(Shen's Diner)

Mr. Shen.

Mr. Shen.

I never expected

that Mr. Shen serving dishes could be so dashing.

Yes.

Mr. Shen is so talented

and knowledgeable.

I didn't expect that he also has studied diet.

Yes.

Mr. Shen, any new theories recently?

Tell us now.

- Yes. - Tell us.

You flatter me.

You're really flattering me.

You flatter me.

Ladies,

actually, today,

I invited you all here

to taste

my latest creation,

Agate Meat.

Agate?

Mr. Shen, this dish

is made from pork, right?

How can we eat this?

Pork...

Sows grow up eating leftovers.

Pork is very dirty.

I don't eat pork.

Neither do I.

(Wealth may vary among people, but souls are equal.)

Ladies,

I once said

at Princess Fuhui's poetry gathering

that while wealth

may differ,

souls are equal,

with no distinction

in status.

If this is true for humans,

why not for animals

and livestock?

Why is it acceptable

to eat mutton

but not pork?

Mutton is from herbivores,

clean in taste,

while pork has a strong, unpleasant odor.

- Indeed. - Exactly.

This is not fit for human consumption.

In fact,

one should not just listen to others.

One must try things for oneself to know

what the pork

from our diner

tastes like.

It smells good.

It's good?

It actually smells good.

What do you think?

Is it good?

Yes.

Everyone says

pork has a strong odor.

This

is prejudice.

We must not be biased

in our dealings.

Ladies, if you understand the concept of equality,

it shows that you have not only beauty,

but also a heart of sincerity

and fairness,

like pearls.

So, why not give pork

a chance?

Prejudice is most undesirable.

For example,

if you judge

a person

by their appearance,

that is

too hasty.

Mr. Shen makes sense.

Just as Mr. Shen's appearance,

one would never imagine

that he is such a talented

and benevolent person.

I am willing to trust him.

She's truly eating it.

What do you think?

The pork is so tender and juicy.

As expected of Mr. Shen.

- He can turn pork - She ate it.

into such a delightful flavor.

Really?

- I'll try it. - Let me try it.

- Please. - I'll give it a try.

It's really delicious.

I've fallen in love with pork.

Delicious.

- Even the nobles - Is it really so good?

praise Shen's pork.

Perhaps there is

something extraordinary about it.

It makes me want to taste it, too.

Agate Meat

has a bright red color

and rich flavor.

Good for you, Mr. Shen.

You've even made

pork so delicious.

Shen's cooking of pork

has Ruan Ji's style

and has surpassed mutton in taste.

You flatter me.

Your fan is also quite stylish.

I have only seen round fans,

never such a folding fan.

Indeed.

Ladies,

anything can be successful

if done

with dedication.

Fengxia, I need help in the kitchen.

I'm overwhelmed here.

I'll come and help you as soon as I'm done here.

(Shen's Diner)

(Best Chef in Juxian)

How about this? Will it do?

You must be very careful.

Don't break it.

A guest specially customized it

for me.

(Best Chef in Juxian) It should be right.

Let's leave it like this for now.

Gongcai,

to be honest,

I don't really care

about this title.

But the guests

are so enthusiastic,

so I'll just reluctantly...

Okay, Dad.

If I win

the competition

next spring,

I'll be the best chef in Yong'an.

Yes, Dad.

Let's not talk about trifles like this.

Take care of the important things first.

What else do you see in your eyes

besides money?

- Well. - Always money.

Is money that important?

You turn around.

- What? - Turn around.

What for?

- Is it done yet? - Yes.

Where did you get this from?

Is it enough?

My loans,

plus interest,

are all here.

Dad, listen.

Don't make me

do this kind of thing again.

I'm at least

Handsome Shen now.

I have so many fans.

What if they see me?

It'd be so bad for my image.

Come on.

How many fans do you have?

And Handsome?

I'm the Best Chef in Juxian.

And you feel wronged

working for me?

No, it's not that.

Gongcai, didn't you use

to look down on me?

When I replicated the dishes

from Yunlai Tavern,

the look on your face

when you bit into that quail.

- You were losing your teeth? - No.

You even spat out the congee.

Right?

How about now?

Do you admire me now?

- How about now? - Yes.

Dad, but seriously,

that was all in the past.

You've practiced this dish in modern times,

so it's perfect now, right?

- Gongcai. - Well.

Listen to me.

Don't blame me

for not teaching you well.

There is no such thing

as a genius in this world.

Only hard work.

I practiced this pork dish

500 times.

Aged by time,

weathered by trials,

I finally made it a classic.

It finally became popular in Yong'an.

Right?

Of course, it also

made me

the Best Chef in Juxian.

Dad,

are you

saying

you don't even listen

to what Mom says now?

Are your mom's words

even useful?

When have I ever listened?

Just your mom?

In the whole of Yong'an,

who can control me?

Let alone your mom.

Who?

Who can control me?

The Best Chef in Juxian?

You're so full of yourself, huh?

I feel like

Dad has changed.

He's become a bit...

Pretentious.

Especially pretentious.

What? I...

Shen Jianshe.

I've noticed

ever since our diner opened,

you've changed so much

that I hardly recognize you anymore.

Is that so?

I think it's necessary for me

to get to know you all over again.

I am Shen Jianshe.

Best Chef

in Juxian.

Are you crazy,

Shen Jianshe?

Best Chef in Juxian?

Do you really think you're a celebrity?

Listen, that's just a title.

Do you know that?

Ma'am,

you can pinch Shen Jianshe's waist,

but not the waist

of the Best Chef.

Best Chef in Juxian, huh?

- Pick it up. - I won't.

Shen Jianshe!

Clean the table.

I love cleaning tables.

What's wrong with you?

I can clean that table, too.

Lady Shen, why deliver meals

at this hour?

I know the Vice Prefect

doesn't eat at night,

but he's been so busy lately

that I haven't seen him.

There's a dish

I really want him to try.

Liu Chang,

let Lady Shen in.

Vice Prefect,

this is a new dish we've developed.

It's a bit special,

so we didn't dare to send it to your office,

but we still wanted you to try it.

Alright.

You want me to eat this?

(Pork trotters are common,)

(but not every pork trotter can make)

(the Vice Prefect of Yong'an lose his composure.)

(If...)

Why?

You're not disappointed

that I don't look ravenous,

are you?

No, no.

How could I be?

You have no prejudice against pork.

You just ate it like that.

Even with such a difficult dish,

you can handle it so well.

You're really a good person.

Whoever gets to marry you

will be truly blessed.

(Letter of Engagement Dissolution) We shall forget everything.

Never again shall it be mentioned.

Should anyone bring it up again,

it shall be considered

a violation of human ethics,

a moral collapse,

and will be condemned by all future generations

of the Shen family.

It's okay, it's okay.

I was just blind.

I didn't see anything.

You think I'm a good man,

yet avoid me like the plague?

What?

Nothing.

Why start making pork dishes?

Pork is cheap.

We can't compete with Yunlai Tavern's

expensive ingredients.

I think

I get

what you're saying.

You finally get it.

By selling pork,

the common people can afford

good meat dishes at a low cost.

That's quite a meritorious deed.

That's what I mean.

I have some serious business here.

The competition between you and Yunlai

is not just between you two.

Someone has already noticed,

and they're exaggerating it,

saying that selling pork

might shake the foundation.

If we allow nobles to eat lowly food,

the commoners

might dare to overstep their bounds.

What nonsense.

Eating pork

shouldn't be taken so seriously.

Nonsense?

Yes.

I think it's nonsense, too.

Actually, in the court and the Palace,

there are quite a few people who are trading

under the names of their relatives.

It seems that the profits of Yunlai Tavern

are not just going into their owner's pockets.

Do you want us to win,

or them to win?

I bet on you winning.

♪Wear a sunset glow upon the brow♪

♪Breeze sways, wind chimes hang below the cloud♪

♪Hear one chime ring, tugging at the heart♪

♪True feelings perhaps can only be sensed♪

♪Misty is you, clear is you♪

♪Seeking stars in fog, seeing your shadow under the moon♪

♪Words held back, feelings unrestrained♪

♪Could the road ahead, let us gaze but not doubt♪

♪Mistook all eyes see as cold ice♪

♪Yet let dusk dye the ears and temples red♪

♪Even holding breath couldn't help but stop♪

♪Exposing my warmed heart held tight♪

♪Bustling is you, desolate is you♪

♪Reservedly drawing you into this life♪

♪Hesitating, undecided, the heart hard to deceive♪

♪Worldly rules and taboos, how could they make me give up♪

♪When rushing to you, leaving my deep thoughts in disarray♪

♪I still foolishly see it as a good time♪

♪Heart stirs, wind swirls the lightest ripples♪

♪A thousand tangled thoughts concealed♪

♪Saved a whole lifetime, hastening to you, urgent over miles♪

♪To make the wandering heart return home henceforth♪

♪To draw near what seems beyond reach♪

♪Through life and death changes, only we never cease, never yield♪

♪Perhaps affection barely passes muster♪

♪But love forever♪

♪Will make up for our mutual care, mutual bond♪

♪Saved a whole lifetime, hastening to you, urgent over miles♪

♪To make the wandering heart return home from now♪

♪To dare approach what seems beyond reach♪

♪Through life and death changes♪

♪Only you, never cease, never yield♪
