Chapter 403: The poor chicken flew and the egg hit!

te their meal in silence and went to bed.Early the next day, Hua Ru Yue was busy with her makeup and changing into a beautiful and graceful outfit. Only then did she walk to the camp gate and speak to..."Alright, you can go whenever you want. It's starting to snow now, and soon there will be a pig slaughter in the village. It would be lively if we all had some slaughtered pig feast together."

Li Laotai smiled and chatted with Liu Fu for a few words, then went to the front courtyard to meet her sons before taking her leave.

The Lord was busy with other matters and it was already a rare occurrence for him to spare some time to come over.

At this moment, someone hugged Jiayin outside the door and said a few words to Lao Tai Li before rushing away.

Mr. Wen is a censor, so he needs to avoid suspicion. Today he only sent a gift and did not come himself.

Mrs. Cui lost her protector, and the Li family was not at ease with her going back alone. They first sent her to the manor before heading to Suijintan.

Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer were five points drunk, and they fell asleep as soon as they got home.

Instead, it was Li Laotai and Tao Hongying who surrounded Jiayin and inquired about the garden matter. Jiayin didn't want to hide it, nor did she need to. After all, it was that little green tea who had provoked her first, so in a few words, she explained everything clearly.

Grandma Li held her granddaughter, not saying a word of blame, but instead praising her.

“Yes, Funiu should be like that. We don't bully others, but we absolutely can't let others bully us. Remember, you are a county princess! You have three uncles, a foster father, and seven brothers, all of whom are your pillars of support!”

Jia Yin smiled, showing her little white teeth, and hugged her grandmother tightly, kissing her several times.

"Okay, Grandma, Funiuer loves you the most!"

Tao Hongying was worried that her daughter, being pampered like this, would really develop a willful and domineering temper, so she quickly poured cold water on the situation.

"Mother, this girl looks innocent, but she has a cunning heart. Look at her, there's no sign of being bullied, it's good enough that she doesn't bully others."

Li Laotai's eyes widened, she embraced her granddaughter and patted her gently, "Our Fu Niu'er knows what's best. I'm the one who's worried she'll get taken advantage of. Last time she played with Nannan together, didn't she get hurt"

Tao Hongying recalled the pink scar on her daughter's palm now, and immediately changed her mind.

"Fu Niuer, listen to your grandma. In the future, don't worry about who bullies whom, the most important thing is that you don't suffer a loss, understand"

Jia Yin hurriedly nodded, moving to sit in her mother's arms. She asked, "Mother, will you keep working at your uncle's restaurant Me and Grandma are here at home, we miss you so much!"

Tao Hongying recalled that both her son and nephew had gone to the academy, leaving only her daughter at home. Indeed, she felt lonely.

She hurriedly said, "Your uncle found the original chef from Sihai Ju. He bought his contract and wasn't afraid of new recipes being leaked. Mother will help for ten or half a month, teach them the new dishes, and then Mother will go home to accompany you, alright"

Jia Yin shook her head while hugging her mother's neck, "Mother, let Uncle stay at the inn and reserve a table. In the future, when you make new dishes, sell them only to wealthy customers, alright"

"If I cook once every five days, there's a whole table full! Someone brought food for Mom to try, and she wasn't tired. She can still stay at home with me and Grandma!"

"Oh, what a good idea!" Before Tao Hongying could even respond, Lao Tai Li had already clapped her hands in approval.

"Our Fu Niu'er is still the smartest! There are so many wealthy people in the city, they must be willing to try something different, preferably something new that others can't get.

"Our home has so many new vegetables, we can easily set up a whole table. Besides, we go into town once every five or six days, so neither our home nor the restaurant will be neglected."

Tao Hongying was touched, but she still said, "Let's wait until Big Brother and Second Brother wake up and discuss it."

The wine shop belonged to the eldest son, of course he had to agree. Li Lao Tai didn't say anything, she held her granddaughter and went to bathe her.

Although her granddaughter didn't get hurt today and didn't hit her head, she still needs to check on her to be completely reassured.

Tao Hongying sat alone in the room, quietly thinking about her thoughts.

Actually, the Tao family has a long history of being cooks, even having imperial chefs in their lineage. Even her grandfather's generation was a renowned master chef at a famous restaurant.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. When it reached her father's generation, things changed.

Her father had a bit of talent for learning and even passed the imperial examination as a scholar at a young age. This delighted Old Master Tao, who thought that their family's fortune was about to change for the better and they would finally be able to bring honor to their ancestors.

Unfortunately, her father didn't pass the imperial examinations until he was forty.

The worst part was, her grandfather, afraid of embarrassing his studious son, had given up being a chef long ago and drained their family fortune.

Finally, it was all in vain. The Tao family did not become a scholarly family, and their ancestral culinary skills were lost.

And her mother passed away early, forcing her to take charge of the household from a young age. Before she was thirteen, she learned some fur trade skills from her grandfather.

The Tao family had no sons. Before her grandfather passed away, he left her some of the family's traditional recipes.

A few years later, my father fell ill. Our family was too poor to afford expensive medicine, and he passed away.

Before she passed away, she gave her hand in marriage to the Li family. It was a stroke of luck that allowed her to find a good home.

The Li brothers were harmonious, their mother-in-law was sensible, and the sisters-in-law were close. Her husband was responsible and knew how to be caring, and they had both a son and a daughter.

Logically speaking, with the skills she learned, it would be enough for her to cook a meal for her family every day, ensuring they were well-fed and happy.

But these days, working in the back kitchen of the restaurant, frying and stir-frying, seeing those diners clean their plates, and hearing their praises, something inside her seemed to explode...

If she could really take care of the house while also having a place where she could occasionally showcase her skills and try out new dishes she's been working on, that wouldn't be bad either...

Li Zhensheng and Li Lao'er slept until dusk before waking up. Seeing that their mother had prepared them nourishing millet porridge and light dishes, they were both happy and guilty.

In my thirties, and still need Mama to worry about me.

Lao Li was anxious and kept asking about the private dish, urging her son to finish his meal. After tidying up the table, she finally started talking about it.

Li Zhensheng's eyes lit up when he heard this. He immediately replied, "Great, Mother! This is simply fantastic! These past few days, I've felt that my younger siblings are so talented at cooking; it's a shame to have them cook at home.

She's gifted, and the new dishes she comes up with are particularly popular with customers. If she could put out a table of them every few days, I'm sure many people would be interested.

Li Lao'er also said, "Big brother can first release the news and then accept pre-orders. Each table should have both new dishes and traditional dishes."

"It's best not to publish the menu, keeping an air of mystery. Only when guests are seated at the table should they know what they're having. Of course, in the end, you must ensure that guests feel they've received great value for their money. That's how you'll keep them coming back!"

Before others could react, Jiayin was already staring at her with eyes full of admiration.

Isn't this the most popular blind box from past lives

It's just that what others are selling are cosmetics and stationery, but our own restaurant's blind boxes are meals!

All people have a curious mind, no matter what time, space, or world. The unknown and mysterious are always the most anticipated!

It can be foreseen that if such a wine table blind box is launched, it will surely be a hit in Xindu!

Of course, just a few dishes with added chili are far from enough.

But she has a small courtyard, that's Mother's greatest confidence!

In winter, setting out a table full of leafy green vegetables is enough to feel novel, even if they are simply boiled in water.

Even if we get unanimous agreement from the whole family for this, it will still take some time to get everything running smoothly.

At the very least, Tao Hongying still has to help out at the wine shop for half a month. She needs to wait until the business stabilizes before she can look for more opportunities.

Jia Yin was also happy with this arrangement because she... was lazy.

There were so many recipes, she had only copied half of them...

Without mentioning that Jia Yin sought out an opportunity to enter the space later that evening and resume her work as a calligrapher,

The next day, a small carriage covered in blue cloth arrived at the Wang family's gate. Sitting inside was the woman who had attended the wedding feast at the Liu family the previous day.

The woman, perhaps feeling a little guilty, looked around before getting out of the carriage and entering the side gate of Wang's house.

The old mammy by Wang's matriarch's side received someone at the Weeping Flower Gate and then led them into the backyard.onned new robes of emerald green and ochre yellow, with a touch of desolation.But the new city was still bustling with people, and the streets were incredibly lively.Jiayin thought that Grandma would...
