Adorable Food Goddess

"Jinxuan, this spicy cabbage and garlic eggplant are not just easy to make." Xia Zhuofeng said.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "I have made it a long time ago. I am preparing to take it home today. If my father likes it, my wife can make more."

"Okay, these dishes are the best for rice." Xia Zhuofeng's appetite increased.

Ye Jiayao poured wine for him.

"Jinxuan, go and do your own business, don't worry about me." Xia Zhuofeng thought that he would have to deal with the traitor later, and it was not good for Jinxuan to be here, so he let her go.

Seeing Steward Qian wink at her, Ye Jiayao said, "Father, please take it easy. If you want to add more dishes, just give me your orders."

When Ye Jiayao left the room, Manager Qian followed him out and said, "The old marquis knows that the young master is here to treat guests."

"you said?"

"I didn't say it. The old Marquis asked it himself, as if he knew that the eldest young master was coming over today. He also said that the eldest young master had dismissed the banquet and asked me to call him over."

Ye Jiayao thought for a moment and said in deep thought: "Just serve the old Marquis well. The young master is gone. Send someone to let me know. If the old Marquis asks about the credit, just tell him directly."

She said what a coincidence. The father and son came to have dinner on the same day. She knew that the old Marquis was here for Xia Chunli. After waiting for so many days and nothing happened, he finally decided to take action.

In Orchid Xuan, Xia Chunli was full of wine and food. He burped and started to brag: "This restaurant is opened by my brother. If you come to eat in the future, just charge it to my account."

One person said: "Master Xia is so bold and generous. Don't worry, Master Xia will definitely win in this year's evaluation."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Xia is so talented and knowledgeable that I can't be ashamed of myself."

"Master Xia, since this Tianshangju is opened by your brother, can you please be accommodating? My son will have a full moon banquet in a few days, and he would like to invite the chef of Tianshangju to host a private banquet."

Xia Chunli waved his hand: "Isn't this a matter of just one word from me? Just tell me a specific time and I'll have someone come over."

"Thank you, Mr. Xia. I will discuss it with my wife when I go back and then tell Mr. Xia."

Everyone chatted with each other for a while and then dispersed. Xiao Lu went to pay the bill. Xia Chunli glared and said, "Don't you have eyes? Don't you know who I am? I'll call you, Manager Zhao."

Manager Zhao didn't come, but Manager Qian came.

Manager Qian smiled and said: "Young Master, the old Marquis happens to be eating here and asked you to come over."

Upon hearing that his father was here, Xia Chunli changed his arrogant attitude and followed Guanshi Qian honestly.

"Well, when did the old Marquis come?" Xia Chunli was most afraid of his father.

"Old Marquis was just passing by today. He came in to take a look and stayed for dinner." Manager Qian said.

Xia Chunli felt relieved, and his father came to eat, so he wouldn't be blamed!

Xiao Lu immediately ran to the kitchen to call Ye Jiayao.

"Second Young Mistress, the banquet is over over there."

Ye Jiayao said: "Go and listen, I won't go up."

If I want to teach my son a lesson, it's better for her to avoid it.

When Xia Chunli entered the room, the old Marquis was still drinking, sipping and sipping with relish.

"Father."

"Sit." Xia Zhuofeng pointed to the seat opposite.

Xia Chunli sat down and said with an apologetic smile, "Father, why are you here today?"

Xia Zhuofeng glanced at him lightly: "Why, I only want you to come, but I can't come?"

"No, no, my son means that if he had known that his father was coming, he would have invited his father to eat together." Xia Chunli said cautiously.

"Oh? Are you here to treat me?"

"Yes, please invite some colleagues."

Xia Zhuofeng nodded, put down his chopsticks, and said, "Then you can also treat me to this meal by the way. The manager will do the math and settle the bill."

Manager Qian said: "I got a 30% discount, a total of thirty-six taels."

Xia Chunli was depressed. It turned out that he was asked to pay. This restaurant was owned by the second brother, so why should his family pay?

However, Xia Chunli did not dare to disobey his father's words and took out his money bag to get the money.

Manager Qian said again: "Young Master, your table will also be given a 30% discount, a total of three hundred and sixty taels."

Xia Chunli's face turned green, okay, you tricky manager, why don't you wait here? But he didn't have that much silver in his bag, only a few dozen taels in total.

Xia Zhuofeng had already seen his shriveled money bag and said calmly: "You don't have any money, right?"

"Father, this, my son didn't bring so much today." Xia Chunli Nuonuo said.

Xia Zhuofeng took a heavy tone: "You don't bring any money for your treat?"

Xia Chunli hesitated and said: "Son, my son forgot and thought there was still more! Father, this restaurant is opened by Chun Yu. My family, you said you come here so rarely, how dare they accept the money?"

Xia Zhuofeng really wanted to slap her away, and snorted coldly: "You really don't regard yourself as an outsider. Money is in charge. Does the young master come here often to eat and drink?"

Manager Qian said hurriedly: "I don't come often, maybe more than half a month!"

Xiao Lu, who was eavesdropping outside the door, almost laughed and said, "Old Qian, you are so awesome."

The corners of Xia Zhuofeng's mouth twitched, "Damn it, don't you come here often?"

"Have you paid all the bills?" Xia Zhuofeng said while suppressing his anger.

Manager Qian looked at the young master and replied calmly: "It's all recorded in the owner's account. Counting today's payment, the total is three thousand four hundred and forty-eight taels."

"Some of them are not mine." Xia Chunli quickly defended.

Manager Qian said: "Young master, please take it over and put it on your head."

Xia Zhuofeng was furious. Damn it, it wasn't enough for him to be a freeloader, he had to be generous. When Youshi told him about this that day, he became very angry. Is there anyone who could take advantage of his brother like this? Who have you become? At the end, Youshi added, this is really like his third uncle, oh my god, blood almost spurted out.

It's not that he didn't know that his third brother had tricked him, but his mother had told him before she died that she should take good care of her third brother. This was her mother's request. How could he not agree? He has already suffered this loss himself, and he will never let Chunyu be cheated again, and he will never allow Chunli to become such a greedy person that makes people laugh.

"Manager Qian, write out a bill and give it to me. If you don't come to pay for this account, I will come and ask for it. We in the Xia family don't have such greedy people who love to take advantage of our brothers." Xia Zhuofeng said angrily.

Xia Chunli secretly cried out, what happened to his father? Doesn't this push him to death? Where can he get more than three thousand taels of silver? He just got two more chrysanthemum stones, and all the money is spent!

"Father." Ye Jiayao walked in.

"Father, forget it, we accept this debt." Ye Jiayao said.

Xia Chunli's eyes lit up, but his father's eyes were as sharp as a knife and he glared at him, scaring him so much that he lowered his head again.

"What's the point? We don't have to spoil him. Our Xia family can't afford to lose this person. Go and issue the bill." Xia Zhuofeng said firmly.

Manager Qian immediately went to write out the receipt and handed it to the old Marquis.

Xia Zhuofeng glared hard at his unfulfilled son: "Go back here, don't be embarrassed here."

Then he said fiercely to Ye Jiayao: "If he steps into Tianshangju again in the future, drive him out with a broom. If I know that you let him eat again, I will tear down your restaurant."

Ye Jiayao said yes tremblingly.

She said in her heart, the old Marquis is really smart. This play not only taught his son a lesson, but also helped her solve the problem. It covered everything. Jiang is really old and spicy.

Xia Chunli followed the old Marquis dejectedly.

Ye Jiayao didn't know until she got home in the afternoon that the old Marquis forced Xia Chunli to take out the money and made him kneel in the ancestral hall. Mrs. Qiao ran to Youshi and cried, but Youshi dismissed her with a few words. Aunt Wei went to the old Marquis to plead for mercy. Instead he was scolded.

During dinner, the old Marquis spoke first as soon as the table was served: "Your eldest brother has done something wrong and must be punished. If any of you dare to intercede for him, go to the ancestral hall and kneel together for three days and three nights."

So Xia Chunyu put aside his thoughts and concentrated on eating. My father is true to his word, there is no such thing as a fluke.

Xia Chunfeng, on the other hand, looked like it was none of his business and ate big gulps. In fact, I felt secretly happy that my father should have taught my elder brother a lesson long ago.

Mrs. Qiao ate with tears in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry. It was quite heart-wrenching to watch. I don't know whether I feel sorry for the more than three thousand taels of silver or my husband who is being punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall.

The meal ended in silence. The old Marquis put down his chopsticks and said, "Chun Yu, Chun Feng, follow me to the study."

It is estimated that the old Marquis needs to provide ideological education to his two sons.

Mrs. Xia You also went back to her room, and Mrs. Qiao's tears fell.

"Sister-in-law, let me do it!" Ye Jiayao went to help.

Qiao shook her elbow and threw Ye Jiayao away.

He said angrily, "You don't need to be a good person."

Ye Jiayao laughed angrily, "Your husband is eating and drinking at my restaurant for free, or is he not mine?"

"I never pretend to be a good person, just be good and be bad." Ye Jiayao smiled faintly, turned around and left.

No need for help, just do it yourself!

She finally understood that with the temperament of her eldest brother and sister-in-law, as soon as Liuli came, they would definitely stand by Liuli's side. It didn't matter. If they had the ability, they would follow her to the fiefdom in the future.

Ye Jiayao went straight to Xia You's room.

"Mother, the dishes for the wedding banquet and the necessary utensils and supplies have been prepared by my wife. Please take a look at it."

Mother Sun took it and gave it to Xia Youshi.

Xia Youshi felt completely satisfied when she saw it. As expected, she was in the restaurant business, and the menu she had drawn up was different from others. The dishes are rich and innovative, and all have auspicious names. The list is very detailed, ranging from tea, snacks, utensils, supplies, for men and women, and for ladies and ladies.

"This list needs to be reviewed by the Queen Mother in person. I will go to the palace tomorrow. Mother Sun, please give your orders. Regarding the wedding banquet, everyone in the house will obey the orders of the Second Young Mistress. Who dares to act against the will and be lazy? The Second Young Mistress has the right to do so. Deal with it." Xia Youshi wanted Ye Jiayao to take this opportunity to practice.

"Yes!" Mother Sun responded with a slight smile.

Xia Youshi added: "Your eldest brother's matter has been revealed, I believe he won't dare to do it anymore. However, it is hard to be a good person, and it is even harder to be a bad person. When a family lives under one roof, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises. Chun Su My son, you will inherit the family business in the future. You are Chunyu’s head wife, so you should be broad-minded."

Ye Jiayao said modestly: "My daughter-in-law will follow her mother's teachings."

Ye Jiayao listened very well to what Xia You said. Indeed, as Chunyu said, Xia You had no other problems except being snobbish.
