Chapter 220: The Two Hundred and Twenty Days of Becoming an Old Lady
"Mother, I didn't, I didn't!" Jiang grabbed the old lady's arm and cried breathlessly. I also saw pity when I cried on my flower-like face.
The third young master was embarrassed, he came to help, but he made the beauty cry.
Wang Yuan was calm and relaxed, he didn't do anything, what did Jiang have to do with him crying?
It's hard to say whether Jiang's crying has anything to do with him, but Jiang's coming here must have something to do with him.
The old lady has already learned from Hu Yue'er about the recent experience of the dim sum shop, and it stands to reason that with the support of Hu Yan'er's dim sum recipe, even if there are other dim sum shops competing, Hu Ji's business will not plummet. However, the dim sum sold in the newly opened dim sum shop tastes exactly the same as Hu Kee, and the price is much less.
Shopping around, Hu Ji has neither a price advantage nor a word-of-mouth advantage, so he naturally becomes a victim.
But the newly opened dim sum shop does not appear out of thin air, and the dim sum with the same taste as the Hu family will not appear out of thin air. The old lady stared at Wang Yuanwai, who would believe that there was no handwriting from him?
The old lady who seems to be smiling is still a little loving, but the old lady with a cold face is like a poisonous snake, staring at people's hearts. The third young master stood beside the old lady as early as when she came, and at this moment she secretly said that it was dangerous, and it became more and more scary not to see the old lady for a few days.
Wang Yuanwai stared back at the old lady coldly, this is his territory, can he still be frightened by the eyes of an old lady?
The old lady didn't want to scare him, she wanted to take Jiang away. The old lady doesn't have to let the king go outside, she is here, whoever dares to stop her don't blame her for being ruthless.
The old lady was invincible with the Jiang family, and the family members did not dare to act rashly when they saw that the king had not spoken. As if the old lady was in a no-man's land, the third young master saw it and hurriedly followed.
Wang Yuanwai spoke at this moment:
"I didn't know that the relationship between the third young master and the Hu family was so good."
The third young master's movements froze, he had helped the Wang family several times before, and he was under the banner of his second brother. In order to hide himself, no one knows what else he has to do with the Hu family.
But this time, it's all exposed.
With Wang Yuanwai's cleverness, he must have guessed that the previous things also had his hand.
But so what?
The old lady's behavior gave the third young master a firm belief, and he was sure that the Hu family, who could take out the jade pendant in the palace, should not be underestimated. Wang Yuanwai is the enemy of the Hu family, and he is smart but is mistaken by cleverness.
He stopped, didn't even look back, and said lightly:
"There's a lot you don't know."
This didn't give the king any face, so he left immediately.
Wang Yuanwai stared coldly at the few people who left one after another, and his eyes became darker and darker.
The third young master sent the old lady and Jiang back to the Hu Ji dim sum shop and left, he knew that the old lady was delicate, and the old lady could not help but see through his unrealistic ideas, and left quickly without even taking credit.
The old lady took Jiang back to the store, Hu Yue'er waited here early, and saw that Jiang came back safe and sound, so she hurriedly greeted her.
In front of the child, the old lady didn't say anything, but as soon as the door closed, the old lady had a cold face.
If she hadn't appeared today, the Jiang family would have been kept by Wang Yuan. She cares about the shop, but if she cares, she doesn't think about her identity, has she ever thought about what she will do if something happens!
The old lady showed no mercy, only she and Jiang were there, and she didn't have to worry about damaging Jiang's face, so she vented in one go.
Jiang didn't say a word, just wiped his tears from time to time, and saw that the old lady was full of powerlessness.
The old lady also knew that she was in a hurry, mainly because of Zhang Yuanwai, who was involved with the Hu family, and the old lady was worried that the Jiang family would fall into his trap.
After venting eagerly, the old lady realized that her tone was not good, and finally softened her words.
The old lady's tone softened, and Jiang Shi said her inner thoughts:
"Mother, I don't want to stay in the city."
She had told the old lady that she didn't want to stay in the city, but the old lady suddenly opened a dim sum shop for Hu Yueer. Jiang could see that his daughter was very happy. She didn't want to be a mother, she didn't want to come to the city, and she came to the city.
And that's what happened.
Wang Yuanwai's eyes on her, Jiang Shi didn't understand. She couldn't stay in the city any longer, or she didn't know what was going to happen.
The old lady also understood her concerns, in fact, Jiang didn't say it, she came this time to bring her back. How did the recipe in the Wang family's dim sum shop come about, she had to go back and check it out.
After all, there are only a few people who come into contact with Fangzi, and they can always find out the truth.
Hu Yueer's body is still sick, and the business in the shop can't continue. The old lady took charge of the temporary closure of the shop and handed it over to the shopkeeper of the treasure embroidery workshop next door to take care of it, and then talk about it after finding out the problem of the recipe.
On the way back to the village, the old lady happened to hear someone outside who was rumoring that the mother in the palace was pregnant. She didn't care much, because in the previous life, the emperor had no children and succeeded two children from the side, although the fate of the Hu family has changed in this life, but it is still far from the palace, and the emperor's fate should be the same as before.
The old lady didn't know that it was her failure to take it seriously that almost ruined all her previous efforts.
Back at Hu's house, the old lady began to investigate the leakage of Fangzi.
Hu Yan'er's dim sum recipe is from modern times, and people in this era can't study it at all. The newly opened dim sum shop can make dim sum with the same taste as Hu Kee, and it has to have a recipe.
Cong's criminal record is still there, and now she is pregnant again, although the old lady was the first to suspect her, she did not interrogate.
She could see that Cong's had changed a lot. From being reluctant to give birth to Hu Lao'er to being actively pregnant, she truly integrated herself into the Hu family and started a new life.
The Cong family could wait and ask again, and Xiao Tian, Jiang, Zhang Feng, and Hu Yueer were called together by the old lady.
Knowing that Fang Zi was leaked, several people were at a loss. Jiang and Hu Yue'er waved their hands again and again, the dim sum shop was opened for them, how could they leak the recipe?
The eyes were focused on Zhang Feng and Xiao Tian, there were only a few people who knew Fang Zi, and if it was impossible, then the rest were the suspects.
"It's not me!"
Xiao Tian waved his hand again and again, stepped forward and stood with Jiang's mother and daughter, glaring at Zhang Feng as if they were enemies.
Zhang Fengshi kept shaking her head, she was grateful for the old lady's salvation, and since she came to the Hu family, she has kept to herself. The old lady never regarded her as a subordinate, but she did not dare to transgress it. The old lady saved her, how could she harm the Hu family?
"Old lady, I, I haven't done it either." Zhang Fengshi hurriedly expressed her attitude, she stood on the same position as the Hu family, and it was absolutely impossible to trap the Hu family!
Jiang also felt that it should not be Zhang Feng's doing, her son was still following Guangqing as a schoolboy, and a good future was imminent, and being a mother would not be so shallow-eyed.
Suddenly, Oda asked her as if he had seen some loophole:
"What did you stutter about?"
Zhang Fengshi is indeed not very bold, but he has never stuttered in the past few days when he came to the Hu family.
Jiang Shi was stunned and shot his gaze.
Zhang Fengshi was speechless, she did stutter, and she was indeed nervous, but it was not because she had done something wrong, but, but, ......
She was suddenly recognized as a sinner, and she was afraid.
When she was in Zhang's house, she wouldn't have dealt with this kind of thing, and now that she was suddenly suspected, she didn't know what to do. She will not defend herself, but only looks at the old lady, hoping that the old lady will make the decision for her.
The old lady's eyes looked at the few people in the room one by one, Jiang and Hu Yue'er looked sad, Xiao Tian stared at Zhang Feng viciously, and Zhang Feng was at a loss.
This is not the first time that dim sum recipes have been resold. Last time, it was thought that Cong's actions were done, but until now Cong's refuses to admit it. The old lady seriously suspected that this matter was not done by the Cong family at all.
Since it's not Cong's, who could it be?
Hu Yan'er was excluded, Hu Yue'er and Jiang were excluded, and the only ones left were Xiao Tian and Zhang Feng.
From the position of the Hu family, Zhang Feng's outsiders should be suspected the most, but from the position of the old lady, it is Zhang Feng's who is the least suspicious.
Cheung had no motive to do so. All her heart is on her son, and as long as he is good, she is satisfied.
Zhang Feng has no motive, so does Xiao Tian have?
Not even more.
Things seem to be at an impasse, and the old lady is unhurried.
It can't be fake, it can't be fake.
Whoever does it will always leave a flaw.
The old lady simply didn't ask them, the recipes in the Wang family's shop would not come out of thin air, as long as the old lady pinched the recipes, she could always find flaws.
Soon, Hu Ji opened again, and this time, Hu Ji's dim sum was improved again, which was completely different from before.
Not to mention the Qin family's dim sum shop, even the dim sum shops in the entire Qinghe County can't find a dim sum similar to it.
Fangzi's matter seems to have passed like this, and the old lady didn't bother with anything else, Hu Yueer went back to the city alone, and with a new Fangzi, the shop was prosperous.
The Qin family came to the Hu family, and she wanted to buy some new kinds of dim sum to sell in the shop, and the previous dim sum was good, but it was not a monopoly business after all. New dim munch, new recipe, she ate that dim sum once, and the taste is not inferior to the old recipe.
The old lady didn't let go, now the dim sum shop is run by Hu Yueer, and the Qin family wants new dim sum, so she has to discuss it with Hu Yueer.
The Qin family found Hu Yue'er, thinking that it was a matter of a few words, but Hu Yue'er refused to let go. She knew that there was a thief at home, but the thief couldn't catch it, even the old lady couldn't do it. Finally got a new formula, she wanted to hold on to the formula and give it to no one.
Qin's side...... Although she was a little sorry, her father told her that her own interests were more important. No matter how well the Qin family's dim sum sells, it is also the Qin family, not the Hu family.
The Qin family returned in defeat, but they didn't bother with Hu Yue'er. The old lady helped her a lot, but for the sake of the old lady's face, she would not be angry with the juniors.
However, as soon as Hu Yue'er refused Qin's request, a new recipe of dim sum appeared in the county town. Hu Yueer was the first to get the news and bought the new formula dim sum from another shop to eat, and the taste was exactly the same!
This, how is this possible!
Hu Yan'er's new recipe is known only to her and the old lady, and she dares to guarantee that she has not leaked it, then, it is the old lady......
Hu Yue'er quickly interrupted her absurd thoughts, she doubted herself, and she shouldn't doubt the old lady.
But if it weren't for the old lady, who would have leaked the formula, and it wouldn't be Hu Yan'er, right?
