Chapter 295: Complaint

They looked like two middle-aged couples, and the two men looked somewhat similar, as if they were brothers.

The four were well-dressed and wore expensive clothes, especially the two women. The embroidery on their clothes seemed to be mixed with silver thread, shining brightly under the sun. Their black hair was decorated with pearls and jade, and most of them were pure gold jewelry, which was also dazzling.

Moreover, the four of them looked serious. When they stood at the door, they looked around the yard with disdain in their eyes that was difficult to conceal.

Although the visitor was a guest, his movements and expressions made him uncomfortable. Su Yujin frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?" before Ai Cao opened the door.

"This must be Miss Su, right?" The older of the two brothers bowed slightly and said, "My last name is Hu Xingxian, and this is my youngest brother, Hu Xingyi."

"To be honest, Miss Su, Juweizhai in the capital is owned by my two brothers. By the end of this year, it will have been open for thirty years. It is quite famous in the capital. To be honest, the only restaurant in the capital besides Baxianlou is Juweizhai."

"So it's Shopkeeper Hu." Su Yujin's tone was still indifferent, and she bowed slightly, "I just don't know why the two Shopkeepers Hu came with their families to see me?"

She didn't remember any connection between her and the restaurant in the capital.

"I am here to see Miss Su today because I want to talk about Zheng Mingyuan, the chef of Huibinlou, the restaurant opened by Miss Su." Hu Xingxian said.

Uncle Zheng?

Su Yujin was a little surprised.

I heard him say before that when he was young, he followed his second uncle to make a living everywhere, and he didn't settle down until he came to the capital. He even had to sell himself into a slave to raise enough money for his second uncle's funeral. But it was a blessing in disguise, as he learned cooking skills.

These people said they wanted to talk about Zheng Mingyuan...

Could it be that these people were Zheng Mingyuan's former employers? Su Yujin paused, "Come in and tell me."

The four of them followed Su Yujin and Ai Cao into the yard. Hu Xingxian and Hu Xingyi looked around the yard again. When they saw the vegetable fields and the various fish kept in the large tanks, they all raised their eyebrows and smiled.

It seems that this so-called Miss Su is not a very powerful person, so that makes things easier.

When Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Han noticed that the courtyard was not paved with stone slabs, they looked at the satin embroidered shoes on their feet, lifted their skirts, stood on tiptoe, and looked disdainful.

The four of them followed Su Yujin into the hall and sat down.

Ai Cao served tea one by one.

The best Maojian tea, when brewed with hot water, gives off a refreshing aroma, and the whole house is filled with the fresh tea fragrance.

Mother Liu sniffed and tapped Ai Cao's forehead, "Little aunt, this tea was given to you by the Second Master a while ago, saying it came from the palace. The young lady doesn't like to drink this, so she kept it, saying it was for entertaining guests. Why did you make this tea?"

"Isn't this for entertaining guests?" Ai Cao tilted her head.

Mother Liu curled her lips towards the house, "You call this a guest? Their eyes are so big that they are on their foreheads. Their nostrils are pointed up to the sky before they even enter the yard. Look at the two sisters-in-law, their eyes are almost slanted to the back of their heads, and they pinch people with their eyelids. They are so shameless."

"At first I thought she was a lady of noble rank from somewhere, with such a grand style, but it turns out she is just a restaurant owner in the capital, so arrogant and proud!"

They must think they are from the capital, and Qinghe is a poor and remote place, so they think

they are superior! They don’t even look at their own status!

They also complain about the mud in their yard, and they have to tiptoe when they walk, for fear of dirtying their skirts. The second master and the third prince didn’t show such a big show when they came down, what do you think you are!

What a show of power! The more Mother Liu thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she felt sorry for the tea leaves. "These people don't deserve to drink such good tea!"

"It is precisely because they are not worthy that we have to make tea like this for them." Ai Cao argued, "They think they are so important, so we have to let them know that our girl has a lot of good things and is not an ordinary person. Let them think about it and don't think our girl is easy to bully!"

Hearing what Ai Cao said, Mother Liu's anger suddenly subsided a little, and she nodded repeatedly, "What you said does make some sense."

"You are a smart girl, really." Mother Liu praised with a smile.

Being affirmed by Mother Liu, Ai Cao narrowed her eyes and smiled. She made Su Yujin a cup of osmanthus tea that she made herself, walked into the house and put the tea in front of Su Yujin.

Hu Xingxian and the other three were also stunned when they saw this.

The four of them all sensed the aroma of the tea just now, and after taking a sip of the tea, they became even more certain that this was top-grade Maojian tea, which was not even sold in the shops in the capital.

And what Su Yujin drank from her cup was not the usual Maojian tea like them, but ordinary osmanthus tea. Maybe it was because she was tired of Maojian tea and felt that ordinary osmanthus tea tasted better? The most important thing was that the cup Su Yujin used was different from the milky white porcelain cups in their hands. It was a very rare Jun kiln sky blue glaze tea cup, which was quite rare.

This girl named Su must be really someone important.

But looking at this yard...

Not really! Hu Xingxian and the other three looked at each other and exchanged glances.

After a while, it was still Hu Xingxian, the eldest brother, who spoke up, "Miss Su is also a businessman, so I won't beat around the bush and will speak directly."

"To be honest with you, Miss Su, Zheng Mingyuan was a servant of my Hu family a few years ago. He worked as a handyman in the kitchen at home. He relied on his sweet talk to coax the chef in the kitchen to teach him a few dishes, and then he showed off at home all day long."

"When my father was still alive, he saw that Zheng Mingyuan had lost all his relatives and had a miserable life, so he took good care of him. However, Zheng Mingyuan was ambitious and scheming. Seeing that my father was kind-hearted, he kept pestering him to teach him how to cook. My father couldn't bear it, so he often taught him a few tricks."

"Later, my father saw that he learned cooking skills quickly and was so obsessed with him that he taught him all his unique skills and made him the head chef of our Juweizhai."

"Originally, if this person is hardworking and down-to-earth, our Hu family is not an intolerant family, and we brothers would not care about anything. But Zheng Mingyuan relied on the fact that he had learned all the unique skills of our Hu family, and did not take us brothers seriously at all. He blocked the entire kitchen of Juweizhai and did not let us brothers get involved at all."

"After my father passed away, Zheng Mingyuan became even more aggressive, instigating everyone in Juweizhai to disobey us brothers, hoping to take Juweizhai for himself. We brothers could not bear to see our ancestral property being occupied by outsiders, so we had to file a complaint with the government, and only then did we get Juweizhai back."

Dabao, who has always been a poor student, suddenly does very well in the exams and even takes the initiative to buy "The Legend of Hulan River" to read... His old mother is confused and a new idea is instantly born - what happens after the poor student is possessed by another body!

In addition, Zheng Mingyuan's previous information was modified to show that he had settled in Beijing.
