After the man finished his conversation, his voice gradually quieted down, replaced by the slurping of rice. The refined and handsome county magistrate drank three bowls of fish and mutton soup in a row, and even his specially grown mustache was stained with some of the broth.

After tasting the braised wild boar meat, his eyes lit up, and he just ate rice without saying another word.

Su Hua's lips curled up as she pondered why Magistrate Qin had come to see her today, when she heard a rustling sound coming from a table behind her.

Sitting behind the main table were Widow Liu and four cows.

She turned her head and saw Widow Liu stuffing braised food into her stomach, all the while whispering instructions to the four cows:

"You guys, stop just eating!"

I took a few bites of each dish and scooped up two spoonfuls of soup. I really wanted to figure out why every dish at their restaurant was so delicious.

"As long as we can figure out even a little bit of it, our Liu family might have another way to make money. Then I won't have to worry about finding wives for you four..."

Su Hua's forehead twitched as she listened.

She had to admit that this widow Liu was indeed a talent; although her research and development abilities were average, her ability to imitate was always top-notch.

When the Su family launched their flavored snail dish, she could come up with spicy stir-fried snail meat. When the Su family sold mala tang (spicy hot pot), she could make bone broth hot pot. Although neither business was as good as the Su family's, she had accumulated a lot of repeat customers in Cangwu Town. Every time she passed the town entrance, she could be seen happily collecting money with her four cows.

Even now, once the new generation of genuine products is launched, she would definitely be the first to figure out how to make counterfeit versions.

However, if the Liu family can really figure out the secrets behind all the food at today's banquet, especially the braised dishes, then there's nothing more to say.

Liu Chunniu nodded hesitantly, and was about to make a move when he noticed someone staring at him.

He looked up and met the girl's clear, bright eyes. His hands froze in mid-air, and his dark face turned as red as a wild boar's rump in an instant.
