Even if it fails, after all, he is still a child, and anything he says can be covered up by saying that children speak without restraint.

The county magistrate must not be negligent and let's put the matter of the deed aside for now. As he said this, he stood up, straightened his clothes, and followed the waiter out of the box.

When I raised my eyes, I saw the county magistrate eating pork ribs bite by bite. I didn't expect that he loved it so much.

I observed that there was no one around him and the guests dining there seemed to be very comfortable.

Those who should speak loudly were still speaking loudly, without realizing that the person sitting here was the county magistrate. It seemed that he just didn't want to be recognized.

Plus, the waiter just said that he wanted to keep his identity a secret from me, so it seems like I need to change his name.

The waiter took her a few steps forward and stood in front of County Magistrate Liu. He waited for him to raise his head and said, "This is the person you want to see."

Ni'er poked her head out from behind Xiao Er'er and blinked her eyes. "I heard that you wanted to see me."

County Magistrate Liu didn't expect that it was her. It was incredible that this dish was made by a child.

But she was just a kid from the village. She probably had never seen meat and seasonings before. It was really strange how such a dish was made. She even doubted its authenticity.

Ni'er saw the county magistrate's confusion and was not in a hurry to explain. After all, the facts were there and he had no choice but to believe it.

"Then you guys chat, sir."

The waiter took the person to the seat and then left.

Nier pointed to the stool opposite the county magistrate and said, "Can I sit here?"

Magistrate Liu nodded, "Of course, please take a seat."

The stool was quite high, so Ni'er had to jump up to get on it.

I was more curious about this little girl than the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table.

Before, she was just a little girl and dared to ask me for calligraphy in the yamen.

She is not timid in her words and deeds, is observant and calmer than most adults. If this dish was made by her, it would be somewhat believable.

I looked at Ni'er for a few times. I had never looked at her carefully before, and I realized that she was indeed cleaner and more delicate than other children of the same age.

Can't wait to verify my idea, "I heard that you made this?"

Nier nodded, "Yes, I made it."

Seeing the distrust in County Magistrate Liu's eyes, he had to think of a way to explain it again.

After all, the news of his resurrection had spread throughout the area, and almost everyone in the town knew about it. Such a mysterious thing had happened, so it wouldn't be too much to say that he learned the dish in a dream.

"It's like this. Our family is so poor that we can't even afford meat. Not to mention meat, even having enough to eat is a luxury."

"I sincerely knelt on the ground and prayed to the gods, asking them to give me a way to make money."

"That night I dreamed of the recipes for two dishes, one was the braised pork from Lai Fu Restaurant, and the other was the sweet and sour spareribs that you like."

The county magistrate felt that matters concerning ghosts and gods could not be completely believed, but also could not be disbelieved, and one could only maintain some respect for them.

Her relatives were also investigated and found to be poor people like her who could not afford to eat. There were not many families in the whole Niujia Village who could afford to eat meat.

Even if you can afford it, you would just boil it in plain water and dip it in salt, without adding so many spices.

It is basically impossible that he learned it from the people in the village. Could it be that there was a master who taught him, but he was not convenient to reveal his identity, so he used the story of ghosts and gods to fool himself?

But how could a young girl like her get to know those masters? It's really interesting. She doesn't want to believe it, but she has to.

This child has some kind of connection with me, and at such a young age he is able to see through people's minds and know what others are thinking.

Her father had seen it himself and didn't seem like the kind of person who would raise a child like that.

A golden phoenix flew out of a chicken coop. Who knows, she might become a promising person in the future. It's a pity that she is a girl.

"That's quite interesting. Are you here to eat today?"

Nier shook her head. It seemed that the county magistrate was not going to get to the bottom of the matter. "No, I made a new dish and was going to sell it to the restaurant owner Wang."

The county magistrate smiled, "Did the immortal teach you this in your dream?"

Nier raised her head, very confidently, "That's not the case, I figured it out myself."

Maybe I’ll sell a few more dishes in the future, it can’t be that all of them are taught by gods.

The gods shouldn't be so idle as to always come to help us. It's better for us to be self-reliant.

The county magistrate was very interested in the new dish that Ni'er cooked today and wanted to know which one was better, her own performance or the one taught by the gods.

"What do you think of this sweet and sour pork ribs?"

Ni'er didn't even need to think. Her eyes lingered on the half-plate of sweet and sour pork ribs, and she said directly, "Each has its merits. The new dish I made is called garlic pork."

"It is very suitable for eating when you have no appetite in the summer. It is not greasy at all, very refreshing, and can also stimulate people's appetite."

"But everyone has their own taste. This is just my idea. In the end, it is the diners who have the final say."

She seems very confident, I don't know if she is exaggerating. Hearing her say that, I really want to try this new dish, but I don't know if I will have the chance today.

"You said they each have their merits, but words are not enough. Since you came to this restaurant today to sell recipes, you must have made them for them to taste. I wonder if I have the honor to taste them as well."

He looked at the other person in shock. He had thought that he wanted to meet the chef who made the sweet and sour pork ribs in the beginning because he was more interested in food and new ideas.

So he talked about the garlic pork, hoping to prolong their chat time and get closer to the county magistrate. Unexpectedly, he actually wanted to try it.

"But...but those were their leftovers. How could we..."

He interrupted Ni'er's words directly. No one would agree to such a thing, especially since he was an official. Who would give leftovers to the county magistrate?

"It doesn't matter. I finally got out once, and I don't know when the next time will be. Why not today?"

"I just want to know what kind of dish can compete with sweet and sour pork ribs. They can eat it, and so can I. Where is the dish you are talking about?"

Even though he was wearing casual clothes, he still spoke with a bit of an official style. The irresistible tone and the aura of a superior made Ni'er unable to help but point in the direction of the box.

"You can go in, right?"

Ni'er thought that her father and Manager Wang were inside, and she couldn't let him go in just like that.

"I'll take you in."

Nier first knocked on the door of the box, opened it a crack, and glanced at the garlic pork on the table that had not been touched since a while ago.

He stared at the two people inside and lowered his voice to make sure that no one else could hear him except them.

"The magistrate wants to come in."
