Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Second Grandma Lai was scared out of her wits. If her eldest sister was to find out that her daughter belonged to the first master then she would definitely not leave her alone.

In the past, she was able to muddle through the ways because her sister trusted her blindly but in case her sister was to hear rumours about her daughter and her then, Second Grandma Lai was sure that the matter would not end so easily.

After all, her sister was only muddleheaded because of her trust in her but if she was to hear those rumours then what would happen to her?

" Then we will leave this matter to you," Lin Chen sneered as he pulled the cross brow away from Lai Tianqin's head. " But remember if you make a move then we have more than one way to deal with you two and your household as well."

The two women did not say anything. Second Grandma Lai did not say anything because she was scared and Lai Tianqin did not say anything because she was still reeling from the fact that she was the daughter of the first master and not her father, the master of the second household.

Lin Chen and Lin Yu took advantage of this situation and then left the small bedroom which belonged to Second Grandma Lai. Once the two of them left the two women stayed in the same position as they were before but then Lai Tianqin snapped out of her daze and looked at her mother with a glare as she demanded, " Is what they said the truth? Am I really the daughter of the first master?"

Her eyes were ferocious as she looked at her mother, one could see that Lai Tianqin was really angry with her mother this time round. Because this matter was not a small one! If Old Madam Lai found out about her existence then she would kill her in a manner that she would not even find her bones.

Second Grandma Lai wrung her handkerchief and then threw it on the ground before saying angrily, " For whom did you think I did this? Do you think I wanted to climb into the bed of the first master? He was the one who seduced and dragged me. He said that he would give me the position of the concubine after the death of the second master but he did not! He left me to raise you up alone!"

She paused and then hatefully added, " I was afraid that my sister would forget my hard work of supporting her when it was necessary which was why I decided to think of a way out for myself. But I did not think that the first master would be even more of a coward than I thought. He would rather watch his seed grow up under someone else's name rather than take me as a concubine."

When Lai Tianqin received her mother's confirmation, she was so ashamed that she wanted to say something harsh to her mother but then she stopped herself and said, " Why couldn't you have sit still? Now that you have stirred a sh*t like this, we have been threatened! It's fine that if you had an affair how could you not be smart enough to make sure that no one will catch onto you?"

" I did not expect that these people would be so prepared! Even your eldest aunt could not find out that you are the daughter of the first master!" Second Grandma Lai pursed her lips as she too stood up from the bed before she started to pace in the room.

She bit her thumbnail and then stated, " I did not think that these people would make the connection and that so easily. Of course, they might be pulling arrows in the dark but the thing is that they hit the target."

" Now what?" Lai Tianqin asked with a sullen expression.

" What else? We have to listen to them!"

On the other side at the house of the county magistrate. Su Wan was as calm as ever, she finished her task and then arranged the classes for her husbands before dealing with the matter of the butchers and the chefs who came to clear their doubts.

Some of them even brought their own cooked snacks such that they could have Su Wan taste them. Find additional stories on m_vl-em,py-r

If Su Wan nodded then they would get a certificate to open their store but in case she frowned then they can only start from the beginning.

Yu Fei arrived at the county magistrate's house with the homemade sauce barbecue sauce that he needed for his snack shop. While he was heading towards the house of the county magistrate, he was listening to his old man who kept telling him to muddle his way through by relying on others.

Upon hearing this Yu Fei frowned and then turned to look at his old man, he pursed his lips and then said with a stern voice, " Grandpa Yu, don't say anything anymore. I know that you want the best for me but I am not going to rely on anyone other than myself. Even my so-called benevolent relatives who had enough money to add three bowls of rice, abandoned me when I needed them the most."

" Have you forgotten? Uncle came to sell the lands that belonged to Father but when the lands were sold he never came back and even threw you out when you went to ask for money. In terms of benefits, we cannot do anything ."

What was more Su Wan treated him well. Even if she sympathized with him because he was young and an orphan, it did not matter. As long as he could earn some money to feed his siblings everything else could be discussed.

She did not treat him like an outsider and even handed him a secret recipe that touched his heart. There was no way he would rely on others and muddle his way through the serious work obstacles.

Old Man Yu sighed and then said, " I know. But you have been getting rejected for so long. This is the ninth time you tried to make this barbecue sauce and in case you fail then it will be your ninth failure. What if Madam Su gets angry and asks you to return the secret recipe?"

Yu Fei gave him a wry smile. He then said, " If she wants to take the recipe back what can I even do?" He then sighed as well and added, " This time I will ask Magistrate Su to teach me how to make this sauce."

Yu Fei immediately changed the topic in case his grandfather asked him to go and ask another senior chef. In case that person stole this recipe and then sold it, he would be the one who would suffer. His grandfather could be muddleheaded but he needed to be clear-headed. And it wasn't like he was the only one who was having trouble while making the dishes that were handed to him by Su Wan.

Even Old Li was having a hard time with his designated dish, he had heard that the dish called Takoyaki was tricky to make as Old Li needed to turn the small octopus meat-filled balls at a certain period of time if he failed then the entire thing would be ruined.

They all were street snack chefs who did not know anything about how to cook anything that needed precise attention. They usually cooked dim sums that did not need much attention and could be cooked in a short span of time.

Now these dishes that were handed to them not only needed the need correct amount of spices but they also needed to pay attention to the flame and many other things, thus nothing came out right.

Su Wan not only wrote the recipe but she also made it again and again in front of them.

However, Yu Fei was sure that the grilled squid made by him and Su Wan was really different!

" You are here too?" A familiar voice asked Yu Fei as soon as he stepped into the large kitchen made by the Lin family.

Su Wan was standing behind the counter and then teaching the chefs and helping them correct what they were doing wrong among them was Aunt Wang who was trying to make the sweet and savoury crepes.

Su Wan did not seem impatient and she taught everyone one by one before it was Yu Fei's turn. He handed Su Wan the bowl of barbecue sauce and then said, " Magistrate Su, please take a look at the sauce and tell me if there is anything wrong with it."

Su Wan tried it with a pair of chopsticks and sure enough just as Yu Fei expected she frowned lightly. She then said, " There is a problem with the measurement, are you using the house cups? It's better if you use the measurement cups from my house. The uneven amount of liquid and dry ingredients has caused a bitter taste."
