I want to make progress

Chapter 66 Poaching

"Little dogs?" Shu Yunfu felt a headache as her eyes fell on the stuffed dolls in the arms of the two little guys. "No, no! If I take you out without permission, your mother will fight me to death. No! No!"

Dame! No matter how cute it is, it’s still Dame!
These two little guys are really Gu Changting’s children. Does their mother know about such bold ideas?
Although these two kids are very cute, I have never thought about going against the Liu family for them.

She had been in the Duke of England's mansion for some time, and she was well aware of how much Liu valued the two children. Not to mention what happened by the lotus pond, even when the two little guys later sneaked into her Yizhu Pavilion, Liu came to her house and told her in words and deeds to keep a distance from the two children.

Later, if Gu Changting had not spoken, the old Duke would have often used his two little grandchildren to secretly satisfy his appetite, and it would have been impossible for the two little guys to become familiar with her.

That's it. Liu treats her with as much as she can. If she really takes these two precious eggs out, Liu will fight her to the death. No! Absolutely not!
Shu Yunfu refused thoroughly and firmly. For the time being, she still needed a stable rear base and did not want to make her life a mess, so she had to say no when it was time to say no!

"I……"

"No problem! Take them, I'll go with you!"

Just when Shu Yunfu was thinking about how to get away smoothly without making the two babies cry, a figure appeared in front of her.

"Old Duke! I greet you, Old Duke!"

Yes, the person who suddenly appeared was none other than the old Duke of England.

Since she and her two little grandchildren discovered such a treasure trove as Yizuxuan, Shu Yunfu has become accustomed to making extra soups, desserts and snacks, and then distributing them to the masters in the mansion, at least to gain good popularity.

People are always grateful for what they have received. These little things of hers are quite useful. The old duke, the old lady and her stepmother-in-law have become much kinder to her and have given her a lot of good things. In return, Shu Yunfu also put a lot of diluted life condensed dew in their tonic soups and snacks.

With Shu Yunfu's special treatment, the old Duke felt that his health had improved this year and he was no longer willing to go to the farm to recuperate. After all, which elder likes to live alone when he is old and doesn't like to be surrounded by his children and grandchildren? What's more, the old Duke is not really old, but he is not yet old enough to like living a quiet life alone.

The old duke who stayed in the mansion was more noisy than the old lady. The old lady was a typical lady from a wealthy family. She never went out of the main door and usually liked to drink tea, recite scriptures, worship Buddha, or listen to operas and books. She didn't like the hustle and bustle outside at all. She seldom went out of the yard in the mansion. She was a typical stay-at-home girl.

But the old Duke is different. He likes lively occasions and all kinds of interesting things. He is either visiting old friends or practicing martial arts and fishing at home. He is full of energy.

But even so, Shu Yunfu did not expect that the old Duke would go out with her. This was too strange!
“No need to be so polite.” Waving his hand, the old Duke was obviously a little embarrassed. “These two kids really like the dolls you brought them. They kept asking to go out and have a look. I didn’t know where to go, so I had to find you.”

"Don't worry, I'm with you guys, you don't have to worry about what Changting's wife will say. Besides, the child can't always be locked up at home, you still have to go out and see him, otherwise he will become stupid."

"Ahem..." At this point, the righteous old duke changed his tone, his voice a little guilty, "And the sauerkraut pork intestines pot and basil fried snails you brought back last time, didn't you say that they are best when they are fresh out of the pot? I don't know which restaurant they are from, and today's weather is good, let's go and try the fresh ones."

By the end of the conversation, the old Duke was a little impatient. Thinking of the sauerkraut pork intestines pot and fried snails with basil that he had eaten by chance a few days ago, the old Duke quickly swallowed his saliva.

They were all things that were not very good, but they tasted really good. Even though his wife did not allow him to drink wine with them, he had been thinking about it for several days, otherwise this would not have happened.

Shu Yunfu opened her mouth wide and looked at the old man who was speaking so confidently. Her face was full of surprise. So the child was clamoring to go out. In fact, it was the old Duke who was greedy!

"Mm! Delicious! The frog is so tender, and the blood curd is so tasty!"

"This restaurant is really good. Although it's not as gorgeous as those old restaurants in Beijing, the most important thing for a restaurant is the taste of the food. The taste of the food made with these strange ingredients is really good. It's really good!"

"Don't just stand there and watch. Eat! Eat together!"

Half an hour later, sitting in the private room of her own restaurant, watching the old man commenting on the table full of dishes, applauding while not forgetting to feed his two little grandchildren, Shu Yunfu felt very mixed emotions.

She never expected that a bite of food would bring her such a big Buddha. If she had known that the old Duke liked this kind of food, she would not have brought those dishes home. Now that the old Duke and two kids are with her, she can't do anything.

"Don't eat too much spicy food, it's bad for your health. These light dishes taste good too."

In the end, Shu Yunfu could only sigh and earnestly accompany the old man and the two little ancestors for dinner. Let's not do anything today. Anyway, Annan has managed several industries in the capital in an orderly manner in the past few days, and now he has begun to sort out the farm he bought outside the city.

"Aunt Shu, this egg roll is so delicious and beautiful. I like this restaurant. Grandfather, can I take the chef from the restaurant back home?"

“The century egg and meat pie soup is delicious too!”

It was obvious that not only the old man was satisfied with the dishes in this restaurant, but the two little ones were equally satisfied. They didn't need to be fed, but ate with their own spoons until their mouths were greasy. They were even thinking about poaching some of the guests.

"This...why don't you go and ask?"

Shu Yunfu was just about to smile and reject the two little guys' childish talk, but she didn't expect that the old man also started to act like him, making her speechless.

Seeing that the old Duke was eager to try and even wanted to call the waiter to ask, Shu Yunfu quickly stopped him.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate, old Duke. They are open for business."

If this chef was poached, she would be the one who suffered the loss. She didn't want to go through the trouble of losing a good chef over a pot of sauerkraut and pork intestines.

He was anxious but couldn't show it at all, so he just tried to persuade her slowly.
