Chapter 45 The Master Finally Smiled
"Miss Jiang Liu, if you like the food at Zui Chun Lou, I will ask Chef Zhang to cook for you for free every time you come over. Why bother asking someone to sell their indentureship?"
Duke Zhen smiled kindly.
"You are joking, Duke. If I go to Zuichunlou every day to eat and drink for free, not to mention that other guests will be dissatisfied, I am afraid that the people working in Zuichunlou will talk about me behind my back.
I want to take him away so that I can eat whatever I want and no one will say anything."
Jiang Youning analyzed the pros and cons obediently, then looked at Duke Zhen: "Or is Duke Zhen's favor worth a chef?"
[The old fox who appears to be kind on the surface only writes empty promises. ]
Duke Zhen cursed the little fox in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he looked at Jiang Youning happily and said:
"Look at what this little girl said. The favor of this duke is worth much more than a cook. Do you really want to use this favor to exchange for a chef?"
"My Lord, you don't know that my daughter doesn't have any other hobbies except eating.
We have the chef's indenture, and today's incident is written off. What do you think?"
Lin Xiangyin's brain works well as long as it doesn't involve her own daughter.
Thinking back to yesterday when her two daughters were mumbling about how the renovated restaurant was still in need of a chef or something, her eyes lit up when her daughters brought it up.
Among all the chefs in Beijing, how many can compare to Chef Zhang?
What's more, using the chef of the Duke's Mansion to make money for your family, how cool is that! ! !
"Okay, I will give this chef's license to Madam Jiang as a gift for today."
After weighing the pros and cons, Duke Zhen nodded.
However, he changed the subject and continued, "There is one thing I want to explain in advance. Chef Zhang of Zuichunlou has a strange personality. You took away his indenture. If he is unwilling to go with you, it is not my fault."
Duke Zhen was very sure that Chef Zhang would not take this step.
Within one day at Zuichunlou, Chef Zhang became famous and was respected by dignitaries.
If he went to the Jiang family to be a cook, he would never have any chance to make a name for himself in his life.
Otherwise, why did so many people try to recruit Zhang Dachu over the years and end up disappointed one by one?
"Of course. If Chef Zhang doesn't want to leave, we will return his indenture to him and he can stay or go as he pleases in the future."
Jiang Youning pursed his lips and smiled obediently.
[I have been willing to follow me for a long time, all I need is this indenture. 】
[When my wine shop opens and becomes bigger and stronger, I hope you will be happy then. ]
"Go, get Chef Zhang's indenture."
It was settled, and Duke Zhen had no intention of continuing to argue with the matter.
After the mother and her two daughters left the Duke's Mansion excitedly, they learned that the three men had left in style and taken away Chef Zhang's indenture. The Duke's wife was so angry that she cut down another tree.
The little maid who originally wanted to find the lady to tell her mistress that her young lady was making trouble again was also completely forgotten.

the other side.
Imperial Master's Mansion.
Qian Miao told Qing Qianxue everything about Jiang Youning from childhood to adulthood.
Finally, he added one more sentence.
"Master, someone just reported that Miss Jiang Liu went to the Duke's Mansion with her sister and mother.
The Duke's wife was sentenced to house arrest for a month, and the Sixth Miss also took away the chef of Zuichunlou as compensation for the humiliation she suffered in the Duke's Mansion today."
"Humiliated?"
Qing Qianxue looked at Qian Miao steadily.
Qian Miao obediently repeated everything in detail.
"She's smart."
There was a slight warmth in Qing Qianxue's cold tone.
Qian Miao's eyes widened when he saw the fleeting curve at the corner of his master's mouth.
Laughed!
His master hadn't laughed for many years, but today he actually laughed!!!
"Master, do you still need to keep an eye on Miss Jiang Liu from now on?"
"Well, you don't need to report those unimportant things on weekdays. Remember to tell me the meaningful things."
"Understood. I will go down and arrange it right away!!!"
Qian Miao suppressed the excitement in his heart.
After walking out of the study, he couldn't help but excitedly ran to the ancestral hall to burn a stick of incense for his master's mother.
"May the princess bless you! Our young master finally has a girl he's interested in!"
"Don't worry, Madam. Qian Miao will definitely protect this marriage for you and let you get what you want."
After burning incense, Qian Miao walked out of the yard and looked up at the sky quietly.
My lady, please forgive me for not daring to tell you that Miss Jiang is not a good match.
But she is a woman after all, and she is in good health, so we should be content with that, right?
Within one night, all of Qing Qianxue's secret forces learned that their master had set his eyes on the sixth daughter of the Jiang family.
Jiang Youning, who was sleeping soundly in bed, had no idea at this moment that she had inexplicably become the first-level protection target of the Shadow Building.
~~~
Time flies.
The Queen's birthday finally arrived.
"Mom, isn't it better if I go with you? Can't I not go?"
Jiang Youning was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but laugh out loud as she was surrounded by a bunch of maids and asked them to dress up.
[Ahhh, I went to bed at one and woke up at three. King Yan praised me for my good health. I already saw an old woman waving at me.]
[If I stay up late behind the maid's back again, I'll be a dog! ]
…
Jiang Wanrong sat with her mother, drinking tea, and couldn't help laughing as she listened to her sister's complaints.
"Ningning, did you stay up late again last night?"
"How is that possible!"
Jiang Youning perked up when his mother looked at him suspiciously.
