Chapter 42 The mother and daughter in the yard were discovered
"Girl, stay!"
The man was young and looked to be in his twenties. He was wearing a gray linen shirt and was dressed as a servant.
This man had a smile on his face and didn't look like a bad person. Zhao Huanyu looked at him steadily and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"I am the manager of Piaoxiang Building. Yesterday, the news about the girl selling recipes in Zuixian Building spread throughout the town. Our shopkeeper wants to meet the girl."
It turned out that it was because of this matter that Zhao Huanyu suddenly felt proud. This is the advantage of later generations. They have absorbed the wisdom of the ancients. In this era, any dish can be very popular, let alone other things.
"I'm really sorry. I signed a contract with the owner of Zuixiang Restaurant yesterday. From now on, I can only supply his family with the recipes, otherwise I will go to jail!"
She deliberately spoke in a serious tone, with a worried look on her face. The man frowned slightly, but he didn't expect that the owner of Zuixian Tower would be so ruthless and not leave any way for them to survive.
Originally, Zuixianlou was the largest restaurant in town, and there was a financial gap with their other restaurants. Now that they have a new menu, it is even more difficult for their other restaurants to do business.
"Let's do this, girl. No matter how much money Zuixian Tower gives you, our Piaoxiang Restaurant can pay you double. In addition, our restaurant can help you pay the compensation in the deed. How about that?"
When he went out, the shopkeeper told him that he must make the girl agree no matter what.
He thought that such a young girl must have been deceived by Zuixianlou. The recipe could only be given away with a few taels of silver. Piaoxianglou could still afford it for a few taels of silver.
"Really?"
As soon as Zhao Huanyu's eyes lit up, the man felt that there was something interesting, so he heard her continue: "Zui Xian Lou gave me three hundred taels of silver, and promised to give me one hundred taels for every recipe in the future. If you give me double...
…It’s just…it’s six hundred taels of silver!”
In order to show that she was very excited, she even reached out her hands to count.
The man was stunned immediately: "Three, three hundred taels?"
Is Zuixianlou crazy?
Zhao Huanyu nodded simply: "Yes, yesterday some shopkeepers outside the door asked for two hundred taels of silver, and the owner of Zuixianlou directly gave me three hundred taels! Can you really give me six hundred taels? Let's go, let's go, let's go
, let’s go now!”
The man was petrified on the spot. He was also present at what happened yesterday. He also heard that there was a little girl selling recipes in Zuixian Tower, and the food she made was delicious, so he hurried over.
Afraid that Zuixianlou would really get such a good recipe, he would get in the crowd and bid randomly, thinking of deliberately asking for a higher price to make the little girl feel arrogant and irritate the owner of Zuixianlou.
You can get a bargain.
Who would have thought that Zuixianlou would give three hundred taels!
When he shouted out the high price of two hundred taels, he felt that it was a bit too much and was afraid that it would end badly for him. Unexpectedly, he shot himself in the foot!
"Let's go! Don't you want to buy my recipe?"
Zhao Huanyu had already taken a few steps forward, but when she saw that he was still standing there, she couldn't help but urge him.
"By the way, the liquidated damages in the deed are one thousand taels of silver. You are so rich, you shouldn't care about it, right?"
What!
The man can hardly stand on his feet anymore, that Zuixian Tower is really a trap and harms people!
"Ah hahaha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, girl, since Zuixianlou has bought your prescription, we can't take advantage of others. I have something to do, so I'll take my leave!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran away. After running for a long time, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. If the shopkeeper really had to spend so much money, then there would be no need to continue opening the restaurant, and the family would be completely depleted.
!
But speaking of it, who is the owner of Zuixianlou and how can he be so rich?
If you can spend so much money on a small recipe, is it a big deal?
Zhao Huanyu smiled and felt that she was really lucky to meet Duan Kuo, a rich little bully who was not short of money, otherwise her recipes would not be able to sell for such a good price.
She was in a good mood along the way, humming a song and heading home. As soon as she reached the entrance of the village, she saw Wan Dazhuang and several others blocking her there.
No more, no less, it was the same bunch of naughty children she had picked up on the mountain before.
"Zhao Huanyu, you dead girl, you will die today!"
Wan Dazhuang smiled happily, but had no intention of attacking her.
Zhao Huanyu was confused and asked: "What's wrong?"
"We all know about your abuse of your stepmother and stepsister. I didn't expect you to be so cruel. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, this time, no matter how you try to please the patriarch, it's useless!"
As he spoke, Wan Dazhuang laughed happily again. Thinking that he had been beaten and scolded before, and even punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, Wan Dazhuang couldn't swallow this breath.
Zhao Huanyu understood clearly. It seemed that the mother and daughter had been discovered in the yard.
However, logically speaking, they would not dare to let others know about those scandalous things, so why did they make it known to everyone?
So, she pretended not to know anything about it and asked Wan Dazhuang and others about it.
Several naughty kids thought that Zhao Huanyu was dead this time, so they told her what happened without any hesitation.
Probably these naughty kids thought they hadn't seen Zhao Huanyu out for several days and wanted to know what she was doing, so they came to peek outside her house. After climbing up a wall that was not very high, they could see the mother and daughter tied up in the yard.
, so they called the village chief, and now many people in the village went to her house to watch the fun.
Seeing that they had been exposed, Liu and Li Xiaohua knew that if Zhao Huanyu came back, their reputation would be ruined, so they counterattacked and said that Zhao Huanyu had stolen the family's money and tied up the mother and daughter. Fortunately, Wan Dazhuang saved them.
Kill them, or you will die!
Zhao Huanyu felt a little ridiculous when he heard this, but now that he knew what happened, he felt confident, so he stopped paying attention to Wan Dazhuang's taunts and hurried home.
"Hey, it's coming! Xiaoyu is back!"
The first person who saw her was Aunt Zhang. She shouted and hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd to pull her and whispered: "Your stepmother is acting like a monster again. This is not an easy matter!"
Aunt Zhang was kindly reminding her, but she was afraid that a little girl like her wouldn't be able to handle it.
"I know, thank you Aunt Zhang."
She smiled gratefully and squeezed into the crowd.
Some people in the crowd thought she was unjustly accused, but others said she was that black-hearted white-eyed wolf, such as Wan Dazhuang's family.
Mrs. Li sneered and said: "I'm just saying that this little bitch is not an ordinary person. Now she even bullies her own stepmother. What will happen in the future? This stepmother is also a mother. How could she do such a rebellious thing!"
"
"Who says it's not the case? It's okay to ask for money. Why do you still beat people like this? I really can't see it!"
"See, she bought so many things. Did she just use her family's money to buy them? Oh, I think they are all good things!"
"Don't talk nonsense, maybe there is something hidden!"
…
Everyone was talking in a flurry, and Zhao Huanyu had already walked up to the village chief and politely called him "Grandpa."
The village chief looked very unhappy, but seeing that she was polite, he still responded, and then asked: "Did you kidnap the Liu family and her daughter?"
