Chapter 75 The little thoughts of the county magistrate and his wife!
"Your Excellency, County Magistrate, that's not necessary. We've already compensated the people who were just taken away. Miss Ning, I'll return these two hundred taels to you."
Shopkeeper Wang smiled and returned the two hundred taels of silver that Ning Ning had just given him to Ning Ning.
Ning Ning said with some confusion, "Didn't the shopkeeper just say that both parties should pay 200 taels each? Why did he return the banknote to Ning'er?"
"Miss Ning, I accidentally misread the price when I was settling the bill just now, so these two hundred taels are redundant. Moreover, they were the ones who caused the trouble first, so they should compensate for everything."
Everyone present understood what the accountant said. From the very beginning, the restaurant had deliberately made mistakes in the bill to vent Qin Zhizhi and the others' anger.
The restaurant never thought about asking Qin Zhizhi and others for compensation from the beginning.
"I understand, the accountant did it on purpose." Ning Ning's words made everyone laugh.
"Ms. Ning, I'm old and my memory is not good, so I remembered it wrong!"
"Ning'er understands everything. Thank you!"
Qin He, who was waiting at the back door, had no idea what happened in the restaurant. It was not until he drove a bullock cart to send a few people to the county government office that he learned that his daughter had met Lin Heng again.
Qin He was so angry that he wanted to chase Lin Heng to the county government office to beat him up, but was persuaded by Qin Zhizhi.
Knowing that it was his nephew and Ning Ning who beat Lin Heng, Qin He first praised Ning Ning, then patted his nephew on the shoulder and said.
"Good boy, well done. When we get home, your uncle will tell your grandma that you have done a great deed. We have been wanting to beat him up for a long time."
"Thank you, Uncle. If I wasn't afraid of affecting the restaurant's business, I could beat him up even worse."
Qin Qinglin is at an impulsive age. When he heard Lin Heng distorting the truth and slandering his third sister, he wanted to beat him up.
When we arrived at the county government office, it was really just a formality. Several other people gave him a lecture and notified his family to come and pick him up.
The county magistrate was so angry that he wanted to slap Lin Heng to death. He had never agreed to his daughter marrying him in the first place, but Lin Heng was a deceitful person.
His own daughter insisted on marrying him and even threatened him and his wife with death. He only had one daughter, so he and his wife finally had no choice but to agree.
Before getting married, he warned Lin Heng to study hard, pass the imperial examinations as soon as possible, and not to cause trouble for him. He had promised to do so at the beginning.
But after getting married, Lin Heng couldn't restrain himself to some extent.
He reminded her many times, but she agreed on the surface but acted completely different behind the scenes.
After getting married, Lin Heng coaxed his daughter to listen to him more. He and his wife also reminded their daughter, but his daughter simply didn't listen.
What he was worried about finally happened. Today he really offended someone he shouldn't have offended.
Although the county magistrate was very angry, he couldn't help feeling happy when he saw Lin Heng being beaten so badly by the daughter of a wealthy family in the county government office.
He even wanted to applaud Ning Ning and say well done.
The county magistrate took Lin Heng back without saying anything. Lin Heng was a little surprised, as he had thought he would be warned by his father-in-law again.
The county magistrate had no intention of paying attention to Lin Heng. After taking Lin Heng back, he went to share the good news with his wife.
The county magistrate's wife asked worriedly, "Master, will this cause us to be at odds with the county magistrate's family?"
The county magistrate said in a very good mood, "Madam, don't worry. The county magistrate and his wife are not the kind of people who can't tell right from wrong. Tomorrow, you can prepare a generous gift to thank Miss Ning."
"Master, if my daughter knew about this, would she make a scene?"
The county magistrate's wife understood her daughter's temper. If Lin Heng continued to fan the flames, she was afraid that her daughter would make a fuss.
"Madam said that she went to the county magistrate's house to apologize for her son-in-law's future. I think Lin Heng is eager for us to go and will definitely not instigate his daughter."
"Master, I know what to do. My poor daughter, if we are gone in the future, she will have to suffer."
The county magistrate's wife was very worried and blamed herself for not raising her daughter well.
Here at Ning Mansion.
Ning Kun sent someone back home early to inform Cui.
Later in the evening, her daughter, Qin Zhizhi and others would return home for lunch. As soon as Cui got the news, she asked the housekeeper to arrange someone to buy groceries.
She thought that it was the Gu family and the Qin family who came back with her daughter, and she was very happy.
Because going to the yamen was just a formality, Qin Zhizhi and others arrived as soon as the person arranged by the housekeeper came back from buying groceries.
"Mom, Ning'er is back. Am I happy?"
When Ning Ning saw her mother, she happily went forward and hugged Cui. Although Cui was happy, she felt a little embarrassed in front of so many people.
"You're such a grown-up, why are you still acting like a child?"
"Ning'er is still my daughter no matter how old she is." Once the little girl started to act coquettishly, Cui couldn't do anything about it.
"Zhizhi, come in quickly." Cui warmly welcomed Qin Zhizhi in.
Ning Kun took Manager Wang and Qin He to the reception room.
"Madam, all the vegetables you asked me to buy have been bought. The chef came to ask you if you want to order any." The maid in the mansion came in to report.
"I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs." Ning Ning could never get enough no matter how many times she ate it.
"Ning'er, why don't we change to another dish?" Cui was a little embarrassed. The chef in the mansion didn't know how to cook this.
Qin Zhizhi saw the embarrassment that flashed across Cui's face and immediately understood what was going on.
"It's all my fault, sister. I forgot I promised to make sweet and sour pork ribs for Ning'er today. Aunt Cui, I wonder if it would be convenient for me to borrow the kitchen in the mansion."
Cui Shi didn't expect Qin Zhizhi to react so quickly. She said gratefully, "It's like being at home here. Let's go, I'll take you there. You little greedy cat, your sister Zhizhi is going to have to work hard again."
"Ning'er, light the fire for your sister later." The little girl was very happy when she heard that Qin Zhizhi was going to her own kitchen. The sweet and sour pork ribs made by her sister Zhizhi were the most delicious.
When they arrived at the kitchen, the cooks had already cleaned the vegetables and meat. Seeing the lady and the young lady coming with a young lady, they hurriedly saluted in unison.
"Don't be nervous. Listen to Miss Gu's instructions and cook a few dishes that the young lady likes. Master Sun, you should learn from her too. The young master also likes these dishes."
After hearing what his wife said, Master Sun felt a little embarrassed. How could this young lady teach him her skills so easily?
"Hello, Master Sun. If you don't mind, please help Zhizhi."
Qin Zhizhi's invitation made Master Sun look at her with admiration. He didn't expect that this young lady was such a insightful person.
"Thank you, Miss Gu. Just tell me what you need me to do." Master Sun suddenly became enthusiastic.
He has been working in the Ning family for many years, and it can be said that he has watched the young master and the young lady grow up. Since he is someone brought by the lady, I think he must be a dish that the young master and the young lady love very much.
With the help of Chef Sun and the kitchen staff, cooking today was half as fast as usual.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, under Qin Zhizhi's instructions and with Master Sun's personal efforts, eight dishes and a soup were ready.
After cooking the meal, Master Sun wanted to ask Qin Zhizhi to be his disciple.
Four of the eight dishes were ones that Chef Sun had never seen before. Although they seemed unrelated, the taste was surprisingly good when paired together.
The key point is that Qin Zhizhi generously told him the cooking methods of these dishes without reservation.
I also suggested ways to improve the dishes he cooked, and the result was that they tasted even better than before.
Master Sun felt that he had met a soulmate.
