The owner of the pastry shop is not difficult to find, and it didn't even take a day for the Xie family to find out.

The proprietress of his family, who used to be Cao Shuqing's big girl, certainly wanted to hide more secretively, but in such a short period of time, with the strength of a small rich man who opened a few pastry shops, how much more secrecy could he hide? This proprietress now not only has to hide from her family, but also to guard against the Cao family. The relationship between the Pingnan Bo Mansion was broken a few years ago, and it was good for the Chengenhou Mansion not to sit on her side, so how could it provide help? The proprietress was in a hurry to take the family away, but she couldn't tell the real reason, let alone her parents-in-law, even her husband and children, and she was not willing to obey.

In the end, she sacrificed the banner of the Cao family again, pressed the consent of her family, and hurriedly rolled up the soft escape. But they didn't go far, and only took refuge in a relative's house on the outskirts of the city for a while, waiting to see what was going on before deciding what to do next.

The proprietress wanted to escape farther, but she was also a little worried about the old owner Cao Shuqing, so she accepted the advice of her in-laws and husband. But as soon as she stopped on the outskirts of the city, her mother-in-law soon began to chant again: "No one comes to our house to trouble, isn't the shop still doing business normally?" What else do we run away? There is no one at home, and those people still don't know what will happen, what if anyone has a bad heart and steals something and sells it? There are also a few shops, and at least dozens of taels of silver are received every day. If we don't go back and stare at it, if the guys swallow the money in private, then pay it back?! ”

The in-laws began to urge them to move back to the city, at least to let their son go to a few shops to collect money, so as not to suffer a loss to his family. The proprietress was so angry that she stomped her feet, and when she looked back at her husband's eyes flashing, she knew that he would not support herself, and suddenly lost her temper again.

She married out of the house in the name of the henchman of the princess. Although she knew that she had annoyed the master's family, she relied on the young lady's intercession to save her life, and married a good husband, but outsiders didn't know about these things, and the Cao family would not dismantle her stage, and the young lady continued to protect her, so she was relieved to use the name of the Cao family to be majestic in her husband's family for many years.

The in-laws are still alive, and the family business has been handed over to her husband, and she is also in control of the feed, and she is in charge of all the family affairs of her son and daughter, and her husband does not dare to accept a concubine. If something at home makes her unhappy, she dares to dismiss it to her in-laws.

After so many years, the old master is disgusted by her mother's family, Pingnanbo's mansion is ruined, and she doesn't dare to provoke Chengenhou Mansion, unconsciously, she has lost all her dependence, and she can only gain a foothold in her husband's family by relying on her own children and years of affection. But she didn't realize this, and continued to act as before.

Her in-laws and husbands are all shrewd people, if they are really honest and weak, they can't start from scratch and open a few shops - this maid-in-law married from the Cao family is not a good hand in business. When he found out that there was a problem with his daughter-in-law's backer, the current owner of the pastry shop took the lead in communicating with his parents privately and decided to hide it from his wife. When necessary, they may have to give up something as long as they can save their property and their lives.

So, when they quietly contacted relatives and friends in private, wanting to find out some outside news, they happened to bump into the person sent by the Xie family to track down. The Xie family then followed them all the way to their current location, and connected with the owner of the pastry shop, who still didn't know anything.

In the early morning of the next day, Xie Mulin, accompanied by his eldest brother Xie Xianzhi, took his eldest sister Xie Yinghui and took a carriage to the house where the family of the owner of the pastry shop temporarily lived.

The proprietress looked pale as the old master's children sat down in the middle of the room, and when she looked back at her in-laws and husbands, she knew that the tide had turned.

She couldn't help but cry to her husband, "What are you doing here? I give birth to children for you, take care of the middle feed, and your home is also my home, can I still harm the whole family?! Why did you betray me?! ”

Her husband said calmly: "It's not that we betrayed you, but that other people's powerful powers as big officials have found us." Now that the meat is on the chopping board, what else can we do besides being obedient? You always say how your old lord was doing, but where is that lord now? Are they still willing to protect us? If not, what are you rambling about here? Isn't it your little master sitting on it? You also took me to worship them before, and told me not to be rude in front of them, and told me to be respectful and obedient. Didn't I do what you said? What are you doing now? ”

When a wife hears such words, she seems to have no choice but to cry.

Xie Yinghui was the first to roll her eyes: "What are you crying for?!" When you kidnapped me to meet someone in the tea room yesterday, you didn't say a word when you watched me being beaten, and now you still have the face to cry?! I didn't shout and kill, can you do it?! ”

Xie Xianzhi coughed lightly, hinted to the eldest sister with his eyes to say a few words, and motioned for the second sister to come forward.

Xie Mulin comprehended, and said to the owner of the pastry shop: "We also know that these things have nothing to do with your family, it's just that your wife helped others to deceive my sister, and she is obviously an insider." We have news that we want to know, but we have nowhere to inquire but to come to you. As long as you are honest and tell us everything you know, we will not be embarrassed. You go wherever you fall in love. It's just that what will happen to the Chengenhou Mansion is not something that our Xie family can ask. How is it? ”

The boss was quite calm: "I don't know what the young masters and young ladies want to know?" I must know it all. ”

Xie Xianzhi hurriedly said: "My mother revealed that her current husband has a grudge against my father in Beiping, what is going on?" There's a conflict between the two of them?! How did my mother come up with the idea of taking my sister away and threatening my father?! ”

This is a lot of information. The owner of the pastry shop quickly made up a lot of what he didn't have, his face changed, and he hurriedly grabbed the proprietress: "Say it quickly!" How dare you get involved in such a terrible thing?! ”

His wife's face turned even paler, but she still remembered her loyalty to her old master: "I don't know what the eldest young master said. I...... I just did what my wife told me, and the rest...... I didn't even know it! ”

Xie Mulin didn't ask, but continued to say to the owner of the pastry shop: "My sister bought a few signature dim sum from your shop a few days ago, and I tasted them all, although they are not as fresh as when they were just baked, but the taste is okay." I like to study a snack to eat on weekdays, and I have done a lot of tricks by myself, and I have roughly deduced the practice of those kinds of cakes, but the cost cannot be reduced, and it is estimated that your family has its own exclusive secret recipe. But it doesn't matter, the cost is higher, and it's not unprofitable. What do you think of our family opening a few dim sum shops across from yours? As he spoke, he memorized the two most sure pastry recipes that he had deduced.

The pastry shop owner and his parents all changed their faces drastically, because the recipe Xie Mulin recited was not much different from their family's secret recipe, only one or two ingredients were different, and the most crucial one had already been guessed. If the Xie family really opened a pastry shop and used their recipes to do business, it would be tantamount to digging up their family's foundation and asking them to do business?!

So what else is there to say? The whole family surrounded the proprietress and said, "If you know anything, just say it!" You are still thinking about your old master, why don't you think about your children?! Are you going to tell them to drink the northwest wind?! ”

Looking at the children who rushed up to hug her and cried, the proprietress quickly collapsed.
