Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 48

"Who would let someone have an ancestral recipe?" Qiu said sourly, "You are now a big celebrity in front of Shopkeeper Sun. You have worked for Jufulou for a lifetime, so what can you do? It's not that others just throw it away. Sun Ze It doesn't matter if it's your own nephew, a country girl will climb on top of you."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chef Li slammed his glass down, "I've worked hard for more than ten years, but the man surnamed Sun is still guarding me strictly. I don't care about any secret recipes!"

"Fortunately, you have sold your life to Jufulou for more than ten years, and you have to hide even a secret recipe from you. Obviously, you don't take you as one of your own. Fu Lou has to curry favor with others, so what are you?" Qiu tidied away the broken porcelain, and sneered nonchalantly.

Seeing her face, Chef Li was annoyed, and said in a deep voice, "If your man is stepped on, you will suffer too! I asked you to inquire about it last time, have you done it?"

Qiu immediately clung to Li's ear and whispered, "That country girl really has a big deal. Liu Wu from the gambling shop in the town..."

"Okay!" Chef Li laughed after hearing the high-five, "It's not too late, I'll chat with Liu Wu right away!"

In the backyard of the casino, after Liu Wu understood the purpose of Chef Li's visit, a ruthless light appeared in his cloudy eyes.

"Little thing that doesn't know how to live and die, dare to hide it from grandpa!" Liu Wu clenched his fists, "This girl sold the ancestral recipe, how much did the shopkeeper Sun spend?"

Chef Li said: "At least it costs 80 taels. Our shopkeeper is generous."

Liu Wu immediately sneered: "It seems that if I don't teach this girl a lesson, she really doesn't know what I'm doing!"

Seeing that there was something going on, Cook Li immediately said: "The county lord will hold a banquet on the tenth day, and they will go to the house on the ninth day. Mr. Liu can be on the ninth day..."

Suddenly a few days passed, and Xia Junyan was fully prepared to go to the county lord's mansion.She has to try her best to leave a good impression on the county lord. In case the gambling house turns against him in the future, she can temporarily use the name of the county lord to bluff people and buy herself time.

They practiced again in Jufulou, and after Mr. Sun confirmed that nothing would go wrong, it was finally decided that Xia Junyan would go to the county lord's mansion to help cook on behalf of Jufulou.

Shopkeeper Sun instructed: "At that time, there will be a special woman in the county lord's mansion to take you in at the corner gate. Since you are serving the county lord, there will be several other cooks who will go with you. I inquired For a moment, most of the cooks are dim sum, and you are the only cook who can cook hot dishes. The mother-in-law will arrange for you to live together, so you don’t talk too much, and don’t move around. It’s better to talk less and do less Don't be presumptuous in the county lord's mansion, if you offend the nobleman, we will all suffer!"

Xia Junyan nodded repeatedly.
