The stinky tofu was too popular. Not only was it loved by the won, but the n could not stop eating it. Master Xiao Wu was a soldier, and the people he knew were all soldiers. It could be described as crazy when a group of soldiers ate.
Two large jars of stinky tofu were eaten by this group of burly n. They hadn’t eaten enough yet.
“Can you make it now?” The pageboy asked.
Yu Wan shook her head. This was not fresh tofu, but fernted. The ferntation process could not be too short, or else it would not be able to reach that taste.
The pageboy’s gaze landed on Yu Wan’s remaining small jar of extrely miserable-looking fernted bean curd. “Can you give this?”
The fernted bean curd was almost used up. There were remaining pieces of fernted bean curd inside, and Yu Wan gave them to him very generously.
Hence, half of the fernted bean curd was snatched away by those rough n.
Everyone was surprised to discover that even if this thing wasn’t matched with fried stinky tofu, it was still delicious when mixed with rice.
They didn’t like Madam Du’s dishes. It wasn’t that they didn’t taste good, but that there were too few portions. They didn’t taste anything after two bites and their plates were already empty. They weren’t suitable for dishes that needed to be savored carefully. Only dishes like the stinky tofu that attacked their taste buds made them feel satisfied.
After a busy day, Yu Wan received the remaining five taels and a bag of silver from Old Mrs. Wei. This was the first ti Yu Wan had received a “tip” from ancient tis after doing business for so long. It felt good.
Yu Wan put away the silver and tidied up the kitchen with Yu Feng and Yu Song. It was almost a habit of the Yu family to leave the way they ca.
The kitchen was not big, and it was not difficult to clean up. However, soone ca to place an order halfway.
The three of them received orders until night fell.
......
Yan Ruyu woke up at night. When she heard that the little maidservant had told Old Mrs. Wei that Aunt Lin had bribed her, she almost fainted again.
Old Mrs. Wei investigated this matter thoroughly and realized that the snacks that were used to entertain guests were actually picked up after falling to the ground. She found it strange that the skin of the pastries was so strange and seed to be able to eat a little sand. She thought that Madam Du had deliberately made it like this…
Old Mrs. Wei felt terrible.
When they continued asking, they found out that the snacks were knocked over by the Yan Manor’s maidservant. The matter of Taozhi making things difficult for the Yu siblings was also dug out.
Yan Ruyu had always given people the impression that she was knowledgeable, gentle, and virtuous. She never expected that the servants she trained would be more arrogant than the others.
She was unreasonable and had bribed the maidservant. Did she think the Wei Manor was just for show?
Old Mrs. Wei was furious.
Yan Ruyu had been wronged in the matter of Taozhi. She had long disliked this maidservant and had asked Mrs. Yan to send her out of the manor several tis to prevent her from causing trouble one day. However, Mrs. Yan pitied her for having suffered with them in prison and had a big butt. It was obvious that she would be easy to have children in the future. She could give birth to several fat grandchildren when she beca Yan Xie’s concubine.
But before she could give birth to a grandson, she had already caused trouble for Yan Ruyu.
Who started the problem should end the problem. Yan Ruyu decided to ask for the understanding of those chefs first. If the person involved did not mind, it would not be good for Old Mrs. Wei to continue being angry.
Aunt Lin insisted that she was the one who bribed the maidservant and that Yan Ruyu had no idea.
Yan Ruyu would have to use her acting skills for the later show if she wanted to dispel Old Mrs. Wei’s doubts. However, what Yan Ruyu never expected was that the chef invited by Master Xiao Wu was actually the girl from the Yu Family who parted on bad terms with her.
“It’s you?”
“It’s you?”
The two of them spoke in unison.
Obviously, Yu Wan had never expected to et Yan Ruyu here.
“You’re the chef hired by the Wei Manor?”
“You’re the madam of that maidservant?”
The two of them stared at each other without blinking. When their eyes t, a strange aura floated around them.
Yu Wan said indifferently, “What brings you here, Miss Yan?”
Yan Ruyu opened her mouth.
Yu Wan said, “If you’re here to plead for rcy for your maidservant and hope that I can co forward and say that everything is a misunderstanding in front of Old Mrs. Wei, then I’m very sorry to tell you that you’ve found the wrong person.”
Yu Wan said everything that Yan Ruyu wanted to say. Yan Ruyu’s expression beca a little awkward. “I don’t think you’ll believe if I say that I don’t know anything about what Taozhi had done. This matter is indeed because the Yan Manor didn’t discipline her well. I apologize to you on behalf of Taozhi.”
Yu Wan wiped the jar and said, “There’s no need. She has already paid the price for her actions.”
Yan Ruyu was stunned. “What do you an? You’re the one who made Taozhi fall?”
Yu Wan said indifferently, “Miss Yan, do you need to remind you that I’m now a popular person in front of Old Mrs. Wei. If you suspect , you need evidence.”
Arrogant, she’s too arrogant!
Yan Ruyu gripped the handkerchief tightly. “Since you’ve already taught her a lesson, this matter will be written off. I won’t tell Old Mrs. Wei or expose you to anyone…”
“Do you have anything to expose?” Yu Wan looked at her arrogantly.
Yan Ruyu felt that her fingertips were about to poke a few holes in the handkerchief. Was this woman here to jinx her? Why was she so angry every ti she t her!
“What exactly will it take for you to help ?” Yan Ruyu said while enduring the humiliation.
Yu Wan spread her hands. “Help you? Are we close?”
Yan Ruyu was fuming!
“Miss Yu, you’re still young and haven’t experienced difficult tis yet. You don’t know that in this world, having one more friend is always better than having one more enemy. I don’t think I need to say much about my identity. I’ve lowered myself and took the initiative to build a relationship with you. Such an opportunity isn’t always available.”
“You should leave such an opportunity to others. Take care. I won’t send you off.”
“You!”
Yu Wan picked up the last jar, knocked Yan Ruyu aside, and walked out of the courtyard.
The carriage made an exception and stopped outside the courtyard. The brothers sat in the carriage.
After Yu Wan got into the car, she saw that the two of them were looking at her differently. “Why are you looking at like that?”
Yu Song turned his face away.
Yu Feng hesitated for a mont and asked in a low voice, “Ah Wan, where are you going later?”
“To the Young Master Manor! Uncle has brought all the snacks!” Yu Wan smiled and patted the bag on her back.
Yu Feng said with a complicated expression, “Don’t you think… you’re too close to Miss Yan’s children?” He said the words “Miss Yan’s children” strongly, and Yu Wan felt like she had been hit in the head.
Yu Feng sighed. “Those children are indeed likable and you’ve saved them before. However, we don’t get along with Miss Yan. It’s better not to get close to them anymore in case others think that we have ulterior motives. What do you think?”
What else can she say?
The night was dark and the cold wind blew.
Outside the Young Master Manor, the three little munchkins sat on the cold steps with their little hands on their laps. Their backs were straight as they stared into the distance.
The news that the Wei Manor had hired a chef from Lotus Flower Town had already spread throughout the Capital. Others might not know, but how could Uncle Wan not guess who it was?
When Uncle Wan reported to the Young Master, the little masters heard it accidentally. After that, the little fellows, who were originally causing a ruckus in the room, suddenly stopped. They walked to the door and sat down without a word.
The three of them sat in a row for the entire day.
They were obedient when the nannies fed them food and when the nannies fed them water, they just refused to leave.
The three of them had never been so obedient!
Uncle Wan was shocked. After asking Shadow Thirteen, he realized that Miss Yu had promised them that she would definitely visit them the next ti she entered the Capital.
The three little fellows shivered in the cold and waited stubbornly. They almost beca three little Amah Rocks, but Yu Wan did not appear.
