Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 436 Dong Family Flavor Spectrum
Zhiruo has always been sensitive since his rebirth. He is also a martial arts practitioner with strong internal strength and keen senses. He accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhao Jinxiu's right hand grabbing the hem of his clothes from time to time, and a hint of hesitation in his eyes flickered.The excitement was not obvious when they were talking about the buffet just now. Now that the discussion was coming to an end, Zhao Jinxiu seemed to be getting more and more... nervous, and his breathing became faster.

Luoying was obviously aware of it, and she quietly stayed behind Zhao Jinxiu to prevent any unexpected events.Wasn't this woman threatened by someone on the way south and wanted to do something to her master?Poison?Surprise attack?Unlikely?This woman doesn't have the skills to steal things?

Zhiruo was secretly amused. Luoying was too nervous. Although Zhao Jinxiu's behavior was not normal, it was impossible for him to cause trouble.The people from SF Escort Agency are not vegetarians, there are also A Yong and others in the house.The people brought out by the two sworn brothers all had eagle eyes and were extremely vigilant. She knew without thinking that from the moment they got on the carriage of the SF Escort Agency, Zhao Jinxiu and her daughter had been living under silent surveillance. It doesn't matter if she says she can be trusted.

There must be something unspeakable, right?Zhiruo is secretly thinking, or regrets coming to the South China Sea and wants to cancel the cooperation?Or maybe you suddenly want to add some conditions but can’t ask for them?
"That's it," Zhiruo always only pays attention to the direction and focus of work arrangements, "You can discuss the specific matters according to the process and rules. If there is any need for me to decide, discuss it again before I leave. Uncle Tong and Aunt Tong will stay for a while. , others can go about your own business." Face-to-face arrangements like this are extremely rare. Under normal circumstances, Uncle Tong receives her written instructions and then arranges the work.Fortunately, Uncle Tong and Aunt Tong are extremely capable, with status and abilities comparable to that of the CEO of a modern group company.Uncle Tong and Aunt Tong knew from the beginning that they would not be able to see their young master except under special circumstances.What are special circumstances?That can only be decided by the young master.

"Master... Master, wait a minute," Zhao Jinxiu blurted out in a hurry, "I have something to say."

After taking the first step, Zhao Jinxiu calmed down and took out a brocade-wrapped booklet about the size of a woman's palm from her right pocket. It was not thick, with less than twenty pages.

"Sir, please take a look first," Zhao Jinxiu stepped forward and presented the booklet with both hands.Luoying was about to take it over for inspection but was stopped by Zhiruo's look.

Zhiruo took the book with his own hands. It was very delicate. You could tell at a glance that it was made of good paper and good ink. It was old but had been preserved with great care.On the cover are four words: Dong's recipe.

Flavor profile?Taste directory?What is the taste?She has seen family trees, recipes, and chess records, but this is the first time she has heard of Wei Pu.And which Dong family is this?Why is it in the hands of Zhao Jinxiu?Zhao Jinxiu's surname is Zhao, and her husband's surname is Wei.

Since Zhao Jinxiu took out this Dong's recipe book, he should be ready to explain the ins and outs.Zhiruo is not in a hurry to ask, just take a look first and then talk.

However, after just reading one page, Zhiruo's eyes widened. He turned back quickly and quickly browsed the entire book.Baby!Sure enough, it is a flavor recipe, including shrimp sauce, fish sauce, mushroom sauce, crab roe sauce, soybean sauce... The densely packed small script lists the recipes and operating procedures for more than ten kinds of seasonings and sauces.

What's even more amazing is that there are examples of what ingredients, cooking methods and even when to add each sauce or sauce are suitable for.It’s simply, well, the sunflower manual in the culinary world, the chef’s secret weapon!It is no exaggeration to say that if you have this recipe in hand and are not too stupid, you can become a chef as long as you know how to cook. Those with cooking skills can directly upgrade a few levels.

Zhao Jinxiu has this treasure in hand. No wonder Xiangmanlou in his previous life was able to develop so rapidly that even the prince and Duke Jingguo coveted it.Unfortunately, Xiangmanlou's business declined day by day after the Duke of Jingguo took over. It is estimated that these formulas were only in the hands of Zhao Jinxiu, and Zhao Jinxiu had destroyed this booklet before the disaster came.

Zhiruo suddenly realized: Zhao Jinxiu must have thought twice before taking out the booklet. Maybe he was still struggling until just a moment ago?That's why he acted so abnormally just now.So did she take out the flavor map in her previous life?Is this a high degree of trust in Qi Mubai's character and strength that he took it out so quickly?

Zhiruo raised her eyes and stared at Zhao Jinxiu, waiting for the conditions she proposed. For Yu Yishenglou, this Dong's recipe book was undoubtedly a magical guarantee of strength, and it was worth giving her an extra [-] percent profit.

There was surprise and consideration in Zhiruo's eyes, but there was no trace of greed, which made Zhao Jinxiu feel more at ease instantly, and her decision was indeed the right one.Exchange heart for heart and sincerity for sincerity. Now that you have decided to advance and retreat together with the Qi family, and treat Satisfactory Building as your own thing to repay the young master for your kindness and life-saving, what else is there to hide?Yes, she did feel that Master Qi Mubai had saved the three of them.Under the circumstances of Liuping County, the Wei family was bound to win if they were so aggressive. She really didn't know whether the three children, the orphans and the widowed mother, could survive.

"Sir," Zhao Jinxiu's voice regained its usual calmness, "My original surname is Dong. Our ancestors were also in the restaurant business. It is said that the reputation in the previous dynasty was as good as that of the Wei family now. It only started from my great-grandfather's generation. Decline, and even the population has withered away. Among the three generations of single generations, my father gave birth to two daughters and one son, and I am the only one who survived." Does this explain the origin of Weipu?He nodded knowingly.As for why the Dong family declined, there is no need to ask why Zhao Jinxiu changed his surname to Zhao.The crime of possessing a jade, taking advantage of others by force, and preying on the weak are all unavoidable in modern times with a sound legal system, let alone in ancient times?How long had it been since her dim sum was targeted?

"I thought I would never dare to use these recipes openly in my life, and could only pass them on as family heirlooms." Zhao Jinxiu shook his head with a wry smile, "I only dared to use them in the small restaurant I opened in Liuping County before. The most common, simple and cheap wild vegetable and snail sauce.”

Seeing that Zhiruo was still looking at her quietly, Zhao Jinxiu didn't feel surprised and continued: "Young master has given us great help to the three of us. Originally, even if he joined the Qi family as a slave, he showed us a way to survive. But. The young master is kind, but I have no other choice than to..., so I shamelessly agreed to the young master's kindness in cooperating. However, after reading the young master's recipes, I...with my little skills, I am really embarrassed to accept the young master's favor. Young Master, please don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say. Only if Young Master accepts this recipe, can I accept our cooperation calmly, and I will ask Young Master to fulfill the profit."

Having said this, Zhiruo knew that it was really difficult to offer to buy the recipe or add [-]% profit or something at this time. Many things could not be exchanged with money.

"Okay," Zhiruo readily agreed, "You still hold the flavor recipe yourself, and you are also in charge of the seasoning workshop. Regarding confidentiality, you discuss with Uncle Tong and A Yong and set the rules. Let's put it this way, the flavor recipe is still yours. Your Dong family’s secret recipe will be passed down to Xiao Baoer and his descendants in the future. It’s just because of our cooperation that Satisfied Lou can use it for free.”

"This..." Zhao Jinxiu's eyes were red, but she also knew that it was hard to refuse. The three of them, their grandparents, were so lucky to meet the young master.It was a crime for him to have a jade, and by doing so, the young master not only took care of her feelings on the basis of mutual benefit and made her feel at ease with their cooperation, but also actually provided her with shelter.She somehow believed that the young master might be stronger than what she had seen and heard.

After Zhao Jinxiu and the others retreated, Uncle Tong sighed empathetically: "The world is difficult and dangerous. Madam Zhao not only expressed her sincerity and peace of mind by doing this, but also allowed the good things passed down from her ancestors to be brought into full play. What a pity it is for things to be tucked away and hidden like this!" Many things are gone if they are hidden away, and the world can no longer enjoy them.Of course, you have to meet a good master who is magnanimous, capable and powerful like your young master. Otherwise, even he will just choose to continue to hide her.

Zhiruo nodded: "We have made a promise to Mrs. Zhao, and we must ensure her interests. Even our own people in the Qi family cannot covet her things. Uncle Tong, and Aunt Tong, you have to work hard for a lot of things."

"Young master, you're welcome," Uncle Tong and Aunt Tong said in unison, "This is what we should do." Although they are not slaves, they feel that they have already become one with the Qi family. Only if the Qi family is prosperous can they be happy.Only when grandson Tongzi grows up to personally kill his enemies, avenge his parents and uncles, and revive the Tong family, can they die in peace in the future.Not long ago, those tribesmen who colluded with their enemies and destroyed their families were either miserable or worse than death. Outsiders thought it was retribution, but they and their husbands knew clearly in their hearts that it was the young master who avenged them.

What’s ridiculous is that even though the tribesmen who once stood by with cold eyes did not suffer “retribution”, they were frightened half to death. It is said that the tribesmen collected money to rebuild the house for their sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, uh, including their husband and wife. After visiting the grave, ask the monks to recite sutras and pray for salvation, hoping that their family members will be reincarnated in heaven and will not take revenge on their clan members.

In the future, Tongzi will definitely do well to follow the young master. The young master is a man who promises a lot of money and is open-minded. They can almost foresee the future of Tongzi and the Tong family.

"Sir, the prefect's office sent an invitation a few days ago. You just happened to be back home. Are you interested in coming to sit down?" Uncle Tong, who had sighed secretly, quickly recovered his thoughts, "The second young master of the prefect's family. When getting married, the bride is the goddaughter of the richest man, the Luo family. The Luo family has no shortage of money, so it’s okay to prepare a 99-ton dowry for the god-girl. It is said that the mysterious Taoyuan land living on the sea actually gave the bride a 16-ton dowry. , and some people say that Taoyuan Realm will also send people to attend this wedding banquet."

All kinds of entertainment in the Qi Mansion are usually courteous, and everyone knows that their young master rarely stays in Nanhai when traveling around.It's just that this banquet at the prefect's house made people very curious because of the legend that Taoyuan Realm would send people to attend. He had a feeling that the young master might also be interested in it.
