Gu An'an never expected to meet the female lead.
However, things are different now. Jiang Mingzhu is no longer a maid in the Zhao family, so there's no need to worry about anything.
However, she still went over with Jiang Mingzhu and greeted the two girls with a smile, "You two are unfamiliar faces. Is this your first time visiting our shop? Please feel free to give us any suggestions."
Chen Shu, the daughter of the prefect of Anzhou, glanced at the newcomer with some surprise, "Are you the boss?"
Gu An'an nodded, "Absolutely genuine."
All she knew was that after her mother burned incense and drew lots, she asked her uncle to transfer the shop, but she never expected that the person who would take over would be such a young woman who didn't look much older than her.
The prefect's daughter picked up her bowl and chopsticks and took a sip. "This soup isn't greasy at all."
When she tasted the meatball, a hint of satisfaction appeared in her eyes. "Did you make it yourself?"
Gu An'an smiled, "Is our distinguished guest satisfied?"
"The meat is so tender. I didn't expect you to have such good knife skills. I'm so lucky to have such a delicious meal."
Chen Shu's mother was always picky, which made her a discerning eater. She could be accommodating in other things, but she always had high standards when it came to food.
I never expected such delicious food in this little shop. "Ah Yue, you should try it. This 'Golden Jade Abundance' truly lives up to its name."
Egg rolls and meatball soup.
They're quite good at naming things.
Feng Yue glanced at it indifferently, picked up her chopsticks and took a light bite, her expression as calm as ever, revealing neither whether she liked it nor not. "It's alright."
Chen Shu couldn't help but shake her head, "You have such a picky mouth."
Gu An'an watched the two sisters playing around, then quietly turned and left.
Feng Yue couldn't actually taste the flavor, and this secret was later discovered by Long Aotian.
A shared secret drew the two closer, eventually leading them to become the invincible dragon and phoenix of this vast land.
But what does that have to do with her?
Gu An'an returned to the backyard to continue her work. Today was the first day of business, and the goal was simply to establish the reputation of "Golden Jade Abundance".
She never intended to make Gu's Food Shop like some snack shops that have branches all over the country.
But gradually expanding and strengthening the food stall is also Gu An'an's small wish.
Their people have a deep-rooted gene for growing vegetables, and their love for food is so intense it's almost obsessive.
Gu An'an was no exception.
The "Golden Jade Hall" is just an appetizer; once she has a stable customer base, she plans to prepare even more delicious food.
Just then, a commotion erupted at the door. "You, Chen Shu! My mother and I were waiting at home, and you actually came to eat in a place like this, making my mother wait for you, a junior! How can you be so shameless!"
The noise was so loud it gave me goosebumps.
Gu An'an couldn't help but frown and pulled Jiang Mingzhu back from leaving. "It's alright, you watch the pot for your mother."
Zhao Qianqian is the daughter of Master Zhao. It is said that since her birth, the Zhao family's business has become increasingly prosperous. The fortune teller said that Zhao Qianqian is the reincarnation of a dragon girl who is by the side of the Bodhisattva and can bring wealth to the family.
Whether she was a reincarnation of a dragon maiden is unknown, but everyone in Anping County knows that Master Zhao dotes on this daughter immensely.
Spoil me, spoil me rotten.
This fostered Zhao Qianqian's spoiled personality. While this spoiled nature wasn't a problem during her teenage years, it caused her trouble after she arrived in the capital.
Although Zhao Qianqian and Chen Shu were cousins, she still died at the hands of Feng Yue, even though Chen Shu had been dead for many years by then.
Who would have thought that these young girls, still so young today, would one day become bitter enemies?
This young lady from the Zhao family arrived in anger and could easily vent her rage on others.
It's not appropriate for Jiang Mingzhu to go out; Gu An'an should go out and handle the situation.
Before she could speak, Chen Shu said, "I'm a bit tired from the long journey, so I thought I'd eat something first to fill my stomach, so I won't be impolite when I see my aunt later."
Compared to Zhao Qianqian's nouveau riche arrogance, Chen Shu exuded the composure of a woman from a prestigious family. The Chen family of Anzhou was originally a renowned clan, unlike the Zhao family, which had suddenly become wealthy.
Zhao Qianqian glanced at her and said, "You're so polite." She never gained the upper hand in front of this cousin. Even when she was impolite, her cousin could always make her seem reasonable. Zhao Qianqian was very displeased and vented her anger on the other diners, saying, "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll gouge your eyes out."
This is a pampered young lady, and her aunt is married into the Lin family. She has both money and power, so who in Anping County would dare to mess with her?
The other diners recognized the woman as the spoiled young lady of the Zhao family, but dared not speak out against her.
However, some people seemed to thrive on chaos, saying, "Miss Qianqian, you'd better not speak so loudly. Be careful not to anger Madam Gu and get thrown out."
Bai Qiaoyin entered with a smile, lifting her skirt. "Congratulations on your grand opening, Madam Gu!"
"I think I would be happier if Manager Bai didn't come."
Bai Qiaoyin chuckled upon hearing this, "See? I told you Madam Gu has a bad temper. Miss Qianqian, you'd better be careful, or don't blame me if you suffer a loss."
Hearing this repeatedly, Zhao Qianqian looked at Gu An'an with displeasure. "It's just a run-down food stall. I'll have my dad buy it out later."
Bai Qiaoyin covered her mouth and chuckled upon hearing this, "Don't take it seriously, Madam Gu. I was just giving you a heads-up, I didn't mean to harm you. On this auspicious opening day, I should still congratulate Madam Gu."
A young and beautiful woman can be both happy and angry, and her voice is as clear and melodious as a nightingale's song.
But he wasn't very kind-hearted.
