Seeing Xu Qingyan's expression was strange but his hands were empty, Zhao Junchen frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
Xu Qingyan didn't know why, but he looked a little dazed, and replied blankly: "She...she didn't agree to hand over the recipe, saying that it was a family tradition and would never be passed on to others."
Hearing Xu Qingyan's expression, Zhao Junchen was stunned.
Without him, Zhao Junchen knew Xu Qingyan too well. This Xu Qingyan was born with a naughty temper and had no other abilities. He was only naturally proficient in coercing and luring the fox into pretending to be a tiger. Now as Zhao Junchen becomes more powerful, he has such abilities.
It's getting higher and higher.
When Zhao Junchen founded "Yue Rong Fang", in less than ten days, Xu Qingyan used coercion and inducement to poach all the pastry craftsmen and powder craftsmen in the capital, which shows his methods.
I never thought that a mere cook and a mere recipe would make Xu Qingyan come home in vain!?
On the other side, Wei Huai's attitude towards this recipe was that it was dispensable. After hearing Xu Qingyan's answer, he did not show any disappointment. He just cupped his hands towards Zhao Junchen and said: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, since this is your mansion
The chef's skills are passed down from his family and are never passed on to others, so forget it, it's not a big deal in the first place."
Zhao Junchen was not willing to force others under normal circumstances. Although this incident was unexpected and even embarrassed Zhao Junchen, it was only a trivial matter after all, so Zhao Junchen did not feel embarrassed. He just smiled and shook his head, and then apologized to Wei Huai:
"The people in the house are so stubborn that I am laughing at you, Mr. Wei."
Wei Huai shook his head and said: "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter."
However, because of this incident, Zhao Junchen also became somewhat interested in the cook in his house.
…………
In fact, Zhao Junchen still had some impressions of this cook.
A few days ago, Zhang Xiu, the eunuch of Yangxin Palace, secretly asked to see Zhao Junchen. Besides revealing the examination questions to Zhao Junchen, he also praised the glutinous rice cakes in Zhao's mansion. After Zhao Junchen tasted it, he also thought it was good, so he
I ordered the cook who makes glutinous rice cakes to be responsible for his own midnight snack cakes every night from now on.
In the past few days, after changing the chef, the standard of Zhao Junchen's late-night snacks every night has indeed improved greatly. Although there are not many varieties, they are exquisitely made and have excellent texture and taste, which is very popular with Zhao Junchen.
However, although Zhao Junchen liked these pastries and snacks very much, he was busy with court affairs and had a high status. He didn't even know the name of the cook, let alone meeting him specifically.
While thinking to himself, he saw that Xu Qingyan still had a weird look on his face. Zhao Junchen couldn't help but joked: "However, I didn't know that there was such a strong man in my house. He could withstand you Qingyan in this world."
I'm afraid there aren't many people who can intimidate or lure him, but he is also a man, so he shouldn't be underestimated just because he's just a cook."
"Man?" After hearing Zhao Junchen's joke, Xu Qingyan was slightly stunned, but he quickly waved his hand and said: "The young master misunderstood... Speaking of which, I can't blame the young master for the misunderstanding. I only found out after we just met.
The cook who prepared the snacks for the young master is actually a woman. I heard that she has just entered the house not long ago."
Speaking of this, Xu Qingyan seemed to have thought of something, and his expression was actually a little dazed.
After hearing Xu Qingyan's explanation, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but be stunned.
In this era, although cooking is a compulsory course for women, it is still rare for women to be able to serve as chefs outside.
Moreover, looking at Xu Qingyan's expression at this time, I am afraid that this cook is not only a woman, but also has a good appearance.
In this case, it's no wonder that Xu Qingyan's method of coercion and inducement didn't work.
While thinking secretly, Zhao Junchen asked with great interest: "Oh? It's a woman? What's her name?"
Xu Qingyan thought for a moment and replied: "It should be Chu and Jiayi."
Zhao Junchen nodded, but didn't care much. He just said: "I would like to meet her someday when I have free time, or maybe she is a strange woman."
On the other side, Wei Huai saw Zhao Junchen and Xu Qingyan chatting with each other, so he planned to say goodbye and leave.
However, after hearing the name "Chu Jiayi", Wei Huai couldn't help but be stunned. He just felt that he had heard this name somewhere before, but couldn't remember it, so he couldn't help but frown and think.
When Zhao Junchen saw Wei Huai looking like this, he thought he was patronizing and chatting with Xu Qingyan, which made Wei Huai feel neglected, so he apologized: "Mr. Wei, don't blame me, Xu Qingyan and I have been together since childhood, and his father Xu Qingyan
The old master is my enlightenment mentor. Although he is called master and servant, he is actually a brother. We are used to playing tricks on each other. If I accidentally neglected you, I hope Mr. Wei will not blame you!"
Wei Huai shook his head subconsciously. He suddenly thought of something, but his body trembled slightly. He looked up at Xu Qingyan, his eyes were bright, and asked: "Is that woman's name really that? What words does it consist of?"
Xu Qingyan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wei Huai's serious question, then shook his head blankly and said: "I didn't ask, I don't know."
Wei Huai, on the other hand, went on his behalf and directly ordered Xu Qingyan without going through Zhao Junchen: "Go and ask someone, but don't let her know."
Xu Qingyan was stunned again and turned to look at Zhao Junchen.
Zhao Junchen understood that given Wei Huai's character, there must be a reason for doing this, so he nodded in agreement while thinking.
After Xu Qingyan went out to inquire, he came back soon and said to Zhao Junchen: "'Chu' is the 'Chu' of 'Chu-Han', 'Jia' is the 'Jia' of 'Jiaren', and 'Yi' is 'suitable'
'should'."
Saying that, Xu Qingyan turned to look at Wei Huai in confusion, wondering why Wei Huai cared so much.
After hearing Xu Qingyan's answer, a sneer flashed across Wei Huai's face and he said: "It seems that this woman is not that stupid. After all, she didn't use her real name."
With that said, Wei Huai raised his head and said to Zhao Junchen: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, I'm afraid you need to change the cook. When everyone in the Prince Gong'an's mansion was ransacked for questioning, only one person disappeared and is still being hunted, and that is Gong.
Zhu Jiayi, the adopted daughter of King An, but 'Jia' is the 'Jia' from 'Jiaxiang', and 'Yi' is the 'Yi' from 'Yise'."
After a pause, Wei Huai's expression became more gloomy, and he added: "In addition, as far as I know, this Zhu Jiayi was originally named Chu before taking the surname of King Gong'an."
"What!?"
After hearing Wei Huai's explanation, Zhao Junchen had not expressed anything, but Xu Qingyan was already shocked.
Although he only met Chu Jiayi for the first time today, Chu Jiayi was excellent in appearance and temperament, which made Xu Qingyan feel good about him. However, he did not expect that Chu Jiayi was a fugitive and had a close relationship with Zhao Junchen.
.
Compared to Xu Qingyan, Zhao Junchen calmed down quickly after being stunned for a moment.
If you do too many wrong things, you should be mentally prepared to be retaliated against.
"It seems that this Chu Jiayi hid her name and sneaked into the Zhao Mansion. She came to seek revenge from me."
Zhao Junchen was thoughtful and sighed softly.
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Wei Huai's expression, and he asked: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, do you want me to send Xichang's gangsters to capture her?" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
