After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 300 Assassination
Thinking of the taste of the roast duck she had eaten before, she swallowed quietly and looked at the roast duck on the table with bright eyes.

"Madam, the duck is roasted, please try it." Master Li said with a smile.

Previously he thought that his wife was just acting on a whim and didn't know how to cook at all, but now he believes that his wife does know how to cook.

After all, the roast duck smells so delicious that the whole Qingfeng Tower is filled with that smell.

Although he hasn't tasted it yet, he believes that the roast duck must be delicious.

"Take the film." Qiao Jingjing said.

"Take a slice?" Master Li was stunned.

Qiao Jingjing thought about it and decided to do it herself, "Get a clean knife and a cleaning board."

When Master Li heard this, he went there immediately.

A moment later he returned with the knife.

Qiao Jingjing stood up and washed her hands, then put the roast duck on the board, picked up the knife, and sliced ​​the duck easily.

Master Li and Manager Lin looked on in amazement.

Madam, your knife skills are really skillful.

The sliced ​​duck meat was of moderate thickness, with the meat and bones separated.

It seems that the lady is a great cook, no wonder she knows how to cook roast duck.

After Qiao Jingjing finished slicing the duck meat, she washed her hands again, then picked up the dough beside her, spread it in her palm, picked up the duck meat with chopsticks and put it on top, and added chopped green onions and sweet noodle sauce.

In this era, there are no cucumbers in winter.

But shredded green onions are enough.

She thought that when the restaurant officially opened, she would replace the shredded cucumber with shredded white radish.

After rolling up the dough, she began to taste it.

Master Li and the manager looked surprised.

Is there such a way to eat roast duck?
It turns out that the noodles, scallions and noodle sauce that the lady ordered to be made have this purpose.

After Qiao Jingjing came here, she never ate roast duck again.

So even though the taste of the roast duck in front of her was not quite up to par, she couldn't help but eat a lot of it.

It was not until he remembered that Master Li and the steward were still watching him that he stopped with a feeling of unfulfilled desire.

She rolled two roast ducks with dough and handed them to the two of them. "This roast duck is very good. You two should try it. I'll take the rest away later."

The two men watched for a long time, and seeing how the lady ate with such relish, they had already become greedy. When they saw the lady handing it to them, they took it without hesitation and took a bite immediately.

Then their eyes lit up.

It’s so delicious!

Thinking that the lady would take the rest away, they could only taste this one portion, and their movements slowed down.

They have to taste it carefully and slowly.

Qiao Jingjing waited patiently for them to finish eating.

After they finished their last bite, Qiao Jingjing asked, "What do you two think of this roast duck? Is it feasible for our restaurant to specialize in selling this dish in the future?"

“I didn’t expect that the roast duck made according to Madam’s method would be so delicious.” Master Li praised, and couldn’t help but glance at the remaining roast duck on the table, obviously still wanting more.

Qiao Jingjing laughed, "I have to take this today back home for my family to try. If Master Li wants to eat it, I'll bake a few more tomorrow."

Master Li had never been so greedy before. When he was asked to speak to his wife, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Madam."

Qiao Jingjing shook her head and looked at Manager Lin.

Manager Lin pondered and said, "I have never eaten such delicious roast duck. I think Madam's idea is feasible."

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "In that case, our restaurant will switch to roast duck in the future, but before that, the kitchen needs to be renovated."

"How to change?"

"There's no need to change anything else, just make an oven and a table specifically for slicing the duck." Qiao Jingjing said, repeating her idea.

Manager Lin listened carefully.

"Manager Lin should find a craftsman to make the oven tomorrow," Qiao Jingjing ordered.

"Madam, don't worry. I will take care of this matter." Manager Lin said immediately. Qiao Jingjing nodded and looked at Master Li.

Master Li was stunned, "Did Madam give any instructions?"

Qiao Jingjing said, "In addition to me, there is now another chef named Li who knows how to make roast duck. So for the benefit of the restaurant, you need to sign a contract with Master Li. Master Li is not allowed to disclose the recipe. Once it is disclosed, our Lu family will hold you responsible."

When she mentioned the word "Lu family", she deliberately emphasized the tone.

Master Li understood and said with a smile: "I was wondering what it was. This is natural. Besides, I, Old Li, have worked in Lu's Restaurant for many years and have never thought of leaving here and betraying my boss."

Besides, he doesn't have the courage to do that. His boss is the Minister of Personnel. He would do that unless he wants to live longer.

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "I believe in Master Li's character."

That being said, a contract must still be signed to provide protection.

After all, she was confident that once Lu's Restaurant launched roast duck in the future, business would be booming, and others would surely try to poach the chef.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, she naturally had to let Master Li sign the deed.

Soon, Manager Lin wrote a contract as she said, and then asked Master Li to sign his name and put his fingerprints on it, and finally handed it to Qiao Jingjing.

By the time everything was arranged, it was already evening.

Qiao Jingjing took her maid out of the restaurant.

Manager Lin and Master Li respectfully escorted her to the carriage.

The driver had already placed the horse stool.

Qiao Jingjing held the maid's hand, stepped on the stool, and was about to get on the carriage.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side.

Manager Lin and Master Li, who were gathered beside the carriage, were knocked off balance by the impact. When they regained their balance and looked around, they were terrified.

"Madam, be careful—"

Before Qiao Jingjing could react, she was thrown onto the shaft of the carriage by the maid behind her.

Her mind went blank for a moment, and she came to her senses when she heard the maid's cry of pain.

When she turned around, she saw Qing Yuan lying on her back, her little face as pale as paper.

"Qing Yuan?" Qiao Jingjing was surprised and hurriedly supported her.

The stabber realized that he had stabbed the wrong person and was about to attack Qiao Jingjing again, but the coachman, Master Li and others had already reacted and rushed over.

"Where did this murderer come from? Surrender now!"

"Someone come quickly, someone is killing someone--" Jinkui stood in front of Qiao Jingjing and shouted loudly.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the gangster waved the knife in his hand and took the opportunity to escape when the driver and others hesitated.

Qiao Jingjing was shocked and angry, but she didn't care anymore. She supported Qing Yuan and asked, "How are you now?"

"Madam, there's blood all over Qingyuan's lower back." Jinkui said in panic.

Qiao Jingjing only then noticed that Qingyuan's skirt was covered in blood. Her face changed and she ordered, "Go to the clinic quickly. Also, Manager Lin, report to the authorities immediately and make sure they catch the murderer."

"Yes." Manager Lin did not dare to delay and went there quickly.

With the help of Master Li and others, Qiao Jingjing helped Qing Yuan onto the carriage, and the driver waved his whip and rushed towards the clinic.

Fortunately, the clinic was not far away and we arrived there soon.

"How did you get injured like this?" The doctor at the clinic was surprised to see Qing Yuan covered in blood.

"Doctor, hurry up and save her." Qiao Jingjing yelled.

The doctor did not dare to delay and immediately called the nurse in the clinic to help Qing Yuan into the house.

Qiao Jingjing followed in.

When she saw Qing Yuan's wound, she felt particularly sad.

She didn't expect Qing Yuan to block the knife for her.

If it wasn't Qing Yuan, the one lying here right now would be her.

"Doctor, please make sure to cure her!" Qiao Jingjing begged the doctor.
