Chapter 636: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road



Xiaoyu was so angry that she was out of breath. This girl from Xiangping was really going too far. This was not a criticism meeting. Why did she speak so badly of the dishes she made?

"Xiao Yu, come here..." Gu Yunru could see that she was a little impatient, so before she could have an outburst, she quickly pulled her aside.

"These dishes are not only made to satisfy the guests' appetites, if they want to comment, let them comment." Gu Yunru had already seen through it. Xiaoyu lowered her head in grievance and said, "But it's the boss!"

"Okay, stop talking. Am I not here with you?"

Gu Yunru tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to remain calm. He was very confident about the next dish. He had originally wanted to tell everyone about the emperors' favorite meal, but was interrupted by Xiang Ping and forgot about the story he wanted to tell everyone.

"Here are all the dishes that will be served: roast goose, steamed chicken with five flavors, lamb bones in original sauce, kidneys in spicy vinegar, bean soup, fresh fish for tea, lamb with minced pepper, and fragrant rice. Please forgive us if we are not treating you well enough." Gu Yunru's mouth kept an upward arc, and she breathed a sigh of relief. After going up to the attic, she saw Rong Zhen's uneasy look, walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I just feel a little uncomfortable..." Rong Zhen looked at her with a forced smile. Gu Yunru took a deep breath and said, "You don't know, this time we have met a worthy opponent. I see that Xiaoyu doesn't seem to have the confidence to continue. I am very interested in Xiangping, but she already has Sumu Zhai, and it is impossible for her to come to our Huajianlou. Why is it so difficult to hire a world-famous chef?"

Gu Yunru was complaining and grumbling, not noticing how miserable his face was. She only saw beads of sweat on his forehead. It looked like something big had happened. Gu Yunru put her hand on his pulse, only to find that his whole hand had turned dark purple. She frowned and asked, "What on earth is going on?"

"I don't know either. It seems like I was bitten by something, a snake..."

Rong Zhen's vision began to become blurry, and he fell directly into Gu Yunru's arms. Gu Yunru had someone bring a basin of hot water and gave him acupuncture on his hand, and managed to save his other arm with great difficulty.

“………”

"Boss, are you there?" A waiter knocked anxiously at the door. Gu Yunru had just watched him fall asleep and was ready to accompany him. She opened the door and asked, "What happened?"

"Someone downstairs has been poisoned!"

"What!"

Gu Yunru led people to the back garden downstairs and found a man in a yellow robe foaming at the mouth and lying on the ground. Gu Yunru looked around and asked everyone to make way for him. He first performed chest compressions on him, but found that it was useless. Seeing that many small red bumps had grown on his wrists, he looked at everyone and asked, "What did he eat just now?"

"I drank this bowl of mutton bone soup and ate spicy hot peppers!"

“………Oh no, it’s probably an allergy to mutton.” Gu Yunru had someone carry him to the backyard room first, and she used various methods to rescue him, and finally helped him get through the difficult time.

Two more doctors were called in for the final diagnosis and treatment, and they prescribed a few pills to wake him up. Xiaoyu stood timidly near the rockery, waiting for Gu Yunru to appear. Seeing that the boss finally came over, he walked forward, lowered his head in shame and said, "Boss, it's all my fault. I didn't check first. What are these guests afraid to eat..."

"Of course it's your fault. You can even make such a low-level mistake." Before Gu Yunru could speak, she heard a gentle female voice.

It's Xiangping...

She had a bundle on her waist and looked very smart and lively. Xiangping walked up to her and said, "So you cooked all those dishes. You are still so young and don't have enough control over these ingredients. This is your fault."

"...That's right, I was wrong, Boss. I will bear the reputation of Huajianlou alone and will not suffer for this matter. From tomorrow on, I will never set foot in Huajianlou again!" After Xiaoyu said this, she put down her apron and left.

Gu Yunru hadn't reacted yet. This incident happened too quickly. Looking at Xiangping's gloating expression, she frowned and said, "Xiaoyu belongs to my Huajianlou. What right do you have to say that about her?"

"I'm telling the truth. The dishes she made are not worthy of being cooked in a formal setting. The Five Blessings Meat has a good meaning, but I think the cooking time is a little off. The spices were added too early, so the meat tastes like spices. There are also some shortcomings that I haven't mentioned yet. I've been patient for a long time to save face for that girl."

"That's enough, Miss Xiangping. How to behave is a very profound knowledge. You should learn it first before you judge other people's cooking skills."

After Gu Yunru finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving her no room to retort. This was the first time Xiang Ping had been left speechless. Looking at her back, he stamped his feet anxiously and said, "But I was telling the truth. I helped you solve a big problem at Huajianlou, and you don't even thank me!"

Shangguan Yurou was about to leave. She had just packed her bag and opened the door when she saw Xiaoyu running back crying. Seeing this, she frowned suspiciously and walked forward, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?"

"I don't want to live anymore!" Xiaoyu felt that the grievance and humiliation she had suffered today was too great, and she was a little breathless. Seeing that Shangguan had packed his bag, she stood up and asked, "Are you leaving now?"

Shangguan Yurou turned her head awkwardly and nodded, "That's right, there is nothing in this place that I care about anymore, so I thought about it and decided to go to Danyang City. I heard that Danyang City is a good place..."

"You just leave like that!" Xiaoyu wiped her tears and stood in front of her, asking angrily why things had turned out like this between the three of them.

"Well...Xiao Yu, all good things must come to an end. One day we will have to separate. Thank you for taking care of me these days. I am also very glad to meet you in Qizhou. This is what I want to tell you. If you can't stay in Huajianlou, you can also try to do other jobs. I believe that with your intelligence, you will definitely find a suitable livelihood for yourself."
