"Chun Tao." Mrs. Wu called out.
Chuntao was waiting nearby, and when she heard the call, she quickly responded.
"lady."
Chuntao is Madam Wu's personal maid.
Madam Wu brought three maids from the capital, all of whom were used to serving her. As for the others, they were all arranged by Sun Huai.
"Go and call the two maids in my courtyard." said Mrs. Wu.
Soon, the personal maid called the two maids who did the rough work.
"Greetings, Madam!" The two servants knelt down quickly.
"Slap him." Madam Wu said coldly.
The personal maid immediately rushed over and gave each of them twenty clean slaps. Her technique was so professional that they were beaten black and blue.
The two maids were completely stunned.
"Do you know why you were slapped?" asked Mrs. Wu.
The two servant girls had never seen such a scene before. They were completely terrified and shook their heads.
"Since you have entered my Wu Mansion, you are my servants. It is wrong for you to follow the instructions of others and deliberately gossip in front of the master and say provocative words. The Wu Mansion will never tolerate such unfaithful servants. Chuntao, sell them out to me." Mrs. Wu said.
"Yes." Chuntao said.
The two servant girls begged for mercy quickly. They never thought that just because they listened to Lord Sun and deliberately spread a few street rumors in front of Madam Wu, they would end up like this.
No matter how much the two maids begged for mercy, they were still dragged out.
The rest of the servants were watching. They never expected that the Marquis's wife, who was usually gentle, could be so terrifying when she got serious.
They no longer dared to have any thoughts that they shouldn't have.
After Mrs. Wu dealt with this matter, she wanted to go and meet Miss Tang.
Although it is said that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, she still hopes that the young master has not made a mistake in choosing the right person, and that the girl she has chosen is worthy of her love.
Madam Wu changed her clothes and went to Ningfeng Restaurant with her personal maid.
Mrs. Wu came to the outside of Ningfeng Restaurant. It was not dinner time, but the restaurant was still very lively.
The Ningfeng Restaurant is built in a grand and elegant manner. The girl is able to support such a large restaurant by herself, so she must be very capable.
Mrs. Wu went upstairs.
"Is there a private room?" Taohong asked.
The lobby was a bit noisy.
"I'm sorry, miss. The private rooms in our restaurant must be booked in advance, and today's are fully booked," said the waiter.
"Just find a seat in the lobby," said Mrs. Wu.
The waiter led Mrs. Wu to sit down.
The waiter quickly handed over a menu: "Please take a look at the menu."
Mrs. Wu opened the menu.
"Madam, the words on this menu are very beautiful." Taohong said.
Mrs. Wu looked at the words above and felt that the handwriting was somewhat familiar.
A light flashed in her head and she suddenly remembered something.
"Waiter, who wrote this menu?" asked Mrs. Wu.
"It's Mr. Du, a friend of our boss." The waiter said quickly.
Mr. Du... This handwriting is clearly Mr. Jiuting's. The Marquis' Mansion also has a collection of Mr. Jiuting's calligraphy!
Mr. Jiuting, a dignified man, actually came to write a menu for someone. If this original work were put on the market for sale, it would be worth a fortune.
Fortunately, this is in Qinghe County, and few people can recognize Mr. Jiuting's calligraphy...
"How do we get Mr. Du to write the menu?"
"Our boss said that she has nothing to do anyway, so we'll give her this job," said the waiter.
Mr. Jiuting was actually being "ordered around" by her. Madam Wu originally thought that the young master's statement that he was not worthy of her was a case of lover's seeing beauty in others, but now it seems that this girl really has some abilities.
Mrs. Wu took the menu and continued to flip through it.
"Ding's cuisine?" Madam Wu was very surprised. "Is it that Ding's cuisine?"
"Yes, it's Ding's family cuisine made by Chef Ding Yu. Our head chef is a descendant of the Ding family."
Lord Wu Hou had tasted the dishes cooked by Grandpa Ding and praised the Ding family's cuisine highly. He even came to Hedong County to invite the descendants of the Ding family to cook in the capital, but the result was far from satisfactory.
Her husband also lamented that the inheritance of Ding family cuisine was broken and was very depressed.
Mrs. Wu didn't expect that Ningfeng Restaurant actually sold Ding family dishes.
But this heir of the Ding family was probably just a gimmick. After all, she had tasted the craftsmanship of the Ding family's descendants, and the inheritance had been broken long ago.
Mrs. Wu was very curious about the taste of the Ding family's food here.
So, Mrs. Wu ordered a few dishes from the Ding family.
"Okay, please wait a moment." The guy ran away.
While waiting for the food, Mrs. Wu looked around.
The interior decoration of this restaurant is also very elegant, the waiters are well-trained, the guests are chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is very good.
Half an hour later, the first dish arrived. Mrs. Wu originally ordered it out of curiosity, but after taking a bite, she was shocked.
This tastes so much better than the dishes made by the descendants of the Ding family!
Madam Wu pulled the waiter aside and asked, "Is your chef really a descendant of the Ding family?"
"A genuine descendant of the Ding family." said the waiter.
"Speaking of which, there is a story behind our chef's reputation, and it's all thanks to Manager Tang," said the waiter.
"What story?" Mrs. Wu was very curious.
The waiter saw that there were not many customers in the store and everyone was busy, so he told the whole story in detail.
"Old Master Ding's two sons were incompetent, so they passed on the legacy to our chef. However, the Ding brothers were jealous and resentful, so they falsely accused our chef of stealing recipes and techniques, and refused to let him cook Ding family dishes. They would sabotage any restaurant that dared to hire our chef, leaving our chef very destitute and almost giving up cooking. But it was our boss who had a keen eye and recognized our chef's ability at first sight. He hired him and even cleared his name, making him the legitimate inheritor of Ding family cuisine!"
When Ningfeng Restaurant opened in Qinghe County, their head chef followed him to Qinghe County. Whenever he had free time, the head chef would always tell them about his relationship with the owner, his words filled with gratitude, and he wished he would die for the owner.
"Your shopkeeper is truly an extraordinary woman," said Mrs. Wu.
"Of course!" the shop assistants said proudly. They all admired the shopkeeper!
Mrs. Wu began to think.
This girl's wisdom and courage are clearly beyond the ordinary. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. With so many outstanding people around her, this girl must be extraordinary herself.
It seems that what the young master said was true, and his praise of her was genuine, and he was not blinded by love.
Mrs. Wu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately.
The young master is indeed a blessed one.
At the same time, Mrs. Wu became even more curious about the girl.
"Our boss is here!" said the waiter happily.
Mrs. Wu followed his gaze and saw a girl coming in from the door. The girl was wearing a yellow dress, which made her look particularly young. Her face was like a lotus, her skin was like cream, her facial features were extremely delicate, and there was confidence between her eyebrows. She did not look like a delicate flower kept in the boudoir. She was like the scorching sun, with her own attractive temperament.
At that moment, Mrs. Wu suddenly understood why the young master had become so deeply involved in it in such a short time.
