Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 172 Creating a New Cuisine
Feng Yao said: "Why didn't she steal anything? My Fengxu Pavilion originally sells ready-made clothes, and I do business according to my duty, so it can't be more innocent. She came to my shop to make a lot of noise because of some private matters in the house. Those who don't know I thought it was me, Feng Xuge, who bullied her."

"Damaging my Fengxu Pavilion's reputation means ruining my Fengxu Pavilion's business and cutting off my Fengxu Pavilion's source of income—how is it different from stealing?" After a pause, no one in the crowd made a sound , and continued: "The little thief stealing things is harming others and benefiting oneself. But what Mrs. Dafu has done is harming others and benefiting herself. But I can't figure it out, how can there be such a stupid person in this world?"

"Who said that? You're stupid, I—" The yellow-faced woman blurted out more words, but when she met Feng Yao's cold eyes, she couldn't help being shocked and shut her mouth immediately.

Feng Yao sneered, walked down the steps, walked towards the yellow-faced woman, and said condescendingly: "Who ordered you to come to Fengxu Pavilion to make trouble?"

"I didn't!" the yellow-faced woman flatly denied.

Feng Yao just sneered: "Let me guess, Wuyoufang? No way, now Wuyoufang and my Fengxu Pavilion are business partners. So, it is Qiutangyuan?"

A trace of unnaturalness flashed across the eyes of the yellow-faced woman, what else did Feng Yao not understand?She sneered and said, "Things are nothing more than three things. I don't care who you are instigated by, but you have already come to my Fengxu Pavilion door to make trouble twice. For Lu'er's sake, I won't care about you this time. And next time-"

"Bah!" The yellow-faced woman didn't appreciate it. She remembered what the man said to her. He would give her 50 taels of silver after the matter was completed. Then he slapped the ground again and howled at the top of his voice, "How can there be such a bullying merchant?" Ah! It's so dark-hearted—ah!"

Before he could finish speaking, Feng Yao kicked him on the chin, his chin tilted suddenly, his whole face was extremely distorted, hideous and frightening.In the eyes of everyone, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Feng Yao snorted coldly: "Get lost!"

The yellow-faced woman hated, feared, and pained so much, she glared at Feng Yao, got up on all fours, drooling from her mouth, and ran to find a doctor.

Not only the onlookers on the side of the road, but also Lu'er, Sanhua, shopkeeper Lu and others behind Fengyao were stunned.

Last time, Feng Yao cut off a finger of the yellow-faced woman.This time, the yellow-faced woman's jaw was dislocated with a kick.And in front of many people, he did it without blinking an eye!

This domineering, almost made them all admire it!

The onlookers felt awe-inspiring in their hearts, Fengxu Pavilion is not something to be messed with!

After that, Feng Yao went back to the store, thanked the shopkeeper Lu for his help, and then looked at Lu'er: "I cut off one of your sister-in-law's fingers. Today I swept her face again, and I'm worth a penny." The medical expenses will not be given to her. If you mind, I will settle the wages with you, after all, we have no fate."

Lu'er smiled wryly and said, "My sister-in-law is asking for a beating herself."

As Dafu's younger brother, Lu'er is the most familiar with the tempers of these two people, and today the yellow-faced woman even brought a few ruffians to make trouble, if it wasn't for the dragonfly to protect Sanhua, wouldn't Sanhua be bullied?I was afraid that he was going to cause a big disaster today, so he lowered his head and said: "Madam don't blame me, I'm already very sorry."

Feng Yao said: "One yard is one yard. Although it seems that she came here for you, she was instigated by Qiutangyuan to come here for Fengxu Pavilion. First, you didn't lure her, two Not facing her, you are a responsible boy, I can't blame you at all."

As soon as the words fell, Lu'er's eyes turned red quickly, and she squatted on the ground and burst into tears.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

Doudou heard him cry sadly, walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly and comfortingly, "Uncle, what are you crying for?"

Lu'er squatted on the ground, buried her face between her arms, and whimpered: "I thought Madam would also fire me."

Feng Yao frowned: "What do you mean 'also' fire you?"

Afterwards, Lu'er explained.

It turned out that Lu'er had to change jobs every once in a while, but it wasn't that he was inconsistent in doing things, but that he was disturbed by the yellow-faced woman every time.

The yellow-faced woman and Dafu were lazy and asked Lu'er for money every once in a while. Lu'er was honest and gave most of the monthly money he earned every time.The yellow-faced woman felt that since he had given so much, there must be more left unpaid, so she repeatedly made trouble.Lu'er couldn't give it, so the yellow-faced woman went to the place where Lu'er was working to make trouble.

It was the yellow-faced woman who caused Lu'er to fail in Qiutang Garden.Not only did she make trouble, but she also secretly took the money from the counter, making the accounts inconsistent, which made the shopkeeper suspect Lu'er, and finally resigned from Lu'er.

Feng Yao frowned, her eyes flickered, and she said: "Get up. Crying like this is useless."

Lu'er wiped her face in embarrassment, stood up and sniffed, and said, "Thank you Madam for trusting me."

"I only trust you this time." Feng Yao said, "The next time, no matter how capable and innocent you are, I will never keep you."

A trace of embarrassment appeared on Lu'er's face, and then he became cruel: "Yes, ma'am, there will never be a next time!"

What he owed to Dafu has been paid off over the years, so he can't spend his whole life carrying guilt and being bullied by their husband and wife.

Feng Yao secretly nodded.She doesn't need a weak guy who won't resist, if Lu'er can't get over it, she won't keep him no matter how reluctant she is.

Feng Yao asked about the business situation in the shop again, seeing that everything was as usual, she didn't stay long, and took Doudou to Wuyou Building.

October has arrived, and Feng Yao hasn't given this month's dishes to Wuyoulou yet.Feng Yao already had two dishes in mind, but she was not satisfied.What I most want to introduce is Sichuan cuisine, but there has been no news about chili until now.Can't help but slander in his heart, Yu Wuyou is really useless.

When they arrived at the Wuyou Building, Feng Yao called a young man and asked, "Where is Shopkeeper Wen?"

Seeing that it was Feng Yao, the young man hurriedly made a bow, and said, "It turns out that Madam Feng is here. Madam Feng, you came just in time, and our shopkeeper is looking for you!" Hearing that, Feng Yao couldn't help laughing: " It's a coincidence, I didn't need him to look for me, I came here by myself."

The boy also laughed, put the handkerchief on his shoulders, and said, "I'll call our shopkeeper."

"Yao'er is here?" Before the person arrived, the words came first.I only heard Renyu's Lang laughing, and then a chubby figure walked from the direction of the kitchen.With a ruddy face and a smile like Maitreya Buddha, not to mention how amiable he is.

Doudou called obediently: "Grandpa Wen."

"Hello, Bao'er." Wen Renyu smiled authentically, rubbed Bao'er, and looked at Feng Yao: "Why is Yao'er looking for me? Speaking of which, even if you don't come to me, I will go to you."

Seeing the excitement on his face, Feng Yao couldn't hide her excitement, she couldn't help laughing and said: "I came here today because of this month's dishes. I don't know if Uncle Wen has any happy event?"

"Yao'er, do you still remember asking the boss to look for things? The boss has already found it, and sent someone to send some over. It's in the kitchen right now, do you want to see it?" Wen Renyu said with a smile.

Feng Yao couldn't help being overjoyed: "Really? Then we have to see."

"I'll take you to the kitchen." Wen Renyu said excitedly.Something that even Feng Yao is looking forward to, must be extremely delicious.

"Yaoer, the smell of that kind of food is terrible. The letter sent by the boss said that the local people used it as poison." Wen Renyu was a little curious, "What kind of food does Yaoer plan to use it for?"

After hearing Renyu's description, Feng Yao knew that it was probably pepper.It seems that Yu Wuyou is quite useful, Feng Yao coughed dryly in her heart, and put a new label on Yu Wuyou.

"Mother went to the kitchen to prepare delicious food for Doudou, Doudou is playing here, how about waiting for Mother to come out?" Feng Yao lowered her head and touched Doudou.

Doudou said obediently: "Mother, go get busy, don't worry about Doudou."

He looked like a little adult, and Feng Yao loved him so much, she kissed him on the forehead, and said: "Dou Dou is good, mother is gone."

Wen Renyu smiled and said: "Doudou, it's not that Grandpa Wen and your mother refuse to take you, but that the thing is very choking. Both Grandpa Wen and your mother are afraid of hurting you."

Not to mention, as soon as these words came out, Doudou immediately grabbed Feng Yao's clothes corner, and said worriedly, "Mother, don't get hurt."

Feng Yao couldn't help laughing, and scratched his little nose: "That's something to eat, how can it hurt people? Grandpa Wen told you to sit here because he was afraid that you would touch places you shouldn't touch because of your young age. on."

The worry in Doudou's eyes eased a little, she let go of Feng Yao's clothes, and said: "Then mother, be careful, don't touch places you shouldn't touch."

This sentence made both Wen Renyu and Feng Yao laugh out loud.

"Doudou has grown up a lot in the past few days. I watched him talk and think things out, and he has a routine." Walking into the kitchen, Wen Renyu said with a smile.

Feng Yao raised her eyebrows: "My son is smart."

Doudou sat by the window, lowered her head and shook her little feet.I thought in my heart, he must be smart and powerful.Only in this way can he protect his mother when he grows up.

"Give way, Yao'er is here." Wen Renyu said.

It was said that the cooks stood on both sides.

"Yaoer, look here, is this what you're looking for?" Wen Renyu pointed to a small high stool next to the shelf.

There was a basket on the stool, a piece of white linen was spread inside, and a large handful of bright red, slender plant fruits the size of a finger were stored in it.Faintly, exudes a spicy breath.

Surprise flashed in Feng Yao's eyes: "That's right, that's it!"

Wen Renyu couldn't help being very happy.He knew Fengyao's ability, and seeing Fengyao put in a lot of effort for this thing, he knew it was an excellent thing.

It's just...Wen Renyu picked up a chili pepper, made a small cut, sniffed it with the tip of his nose, frowned immediately, and asked in puzzlement, "Yaoer, how do you want to eat this thing?"

"This thing is called chili pepper." Feng Yao approached the basket and saw a large group of chili peppers in it, some dried, some half-dried, and some wilted ones that had not been dried. She was overjoyed: "This thing It can be dried and ground into powder, sprinkled on fried or stewed vegetables. It can also be cut into sections, fried or stewed. It can also be mixed with sesame seeds to make spicy sauce.”

"Besides, it's also very good to fry it in oil to make chili oil. When eating noodles, pour a small spoonful into it, not to mention how beautiful it is." For a moment, many things flashed through Feng Yao's mind. How to eat chili, casually mentioned a few.

Just these few things already made Wen Renyu and other cooks' eyes sparkle, and some cooks even flushed with excitement: "Mrs. Feng, make us a dish, let us try something new?"
