Chapter 130 Stealing the Secret Recipe
On this day, Yang Chenchuan went out of the house to do some work, and Lin Yuxi was busy writing in the study, writing down everything she knew and could do. While she was still writing, Luyun Cuizhu Cuiping walked in.
Cuizhu knelt down as soon as she saw her. Seeing her eyes swollen from crying, Lin Yuxi felt a pang in her heart. She put down her pen and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with you? Who bullied you?"
When asked this question, Cuizhu cried even harder, and kowtowed while begging: "Madam, please help me."
"If you have anything to say, just talk about it nicely. Get up first. You are my maid. As long as it's not your fault, would I let you get bullied without saying anything? Stop crying." Lin Yuxi comforted her. Seeing Cuizhu's tears flowing like crazy, her heart also tightened.
These maids have been with her for quite some time and helped her a lot. She was grateful to them. This was the first time she saw Cuizhu cry like this.
Cuizhu stopped crying a little after hearing this and thanked her, "Someone just sent me a letter saying that Laoshi was beaten and vomited blood. Please, Madam, save him!"
Lin Yuxi's heart trembled, and she asked anxiously: "What happened? Why was he beaten to the point of vomiting blood?"
When Zheng Laoshi was mentioned, Cuizhu burst into tears and couldn't speak. Cuiping hugged her distressedly, and Luyun's eyes were red. She said:
"Just now, a fellow villager of Cuizhu came to Cuizhu at the request of Brother Zheng to report the news. He said that Brother Zheng was beaten by Tianxilou because he stole the secret recipe of their store and... smashed our store. He also reported it to the government. Now the police have arrested Brother Zheng and Niu Gaizi and put them in jail."
Lin Yuxi frowned and asked, "What secret recipe?"
"They said our ice-making method is theirs, and even the roujiamo and hamburgers are from Tianxilou. Brother Zheng and Niu Gaizi both worked at Tianxilou before, so they insisted that they stole the secret recipe and set up their own business."
Lu Yun became more and more angry as she spoke. Others might not know, but didn't they know? That was the girl's own recipe, and she didn't steal it or rob anyone else. Lu Yun said angrily:
"Madam, Tian Xi Lou is really too much. The recipe clearly belongs to you, how come it became theirs? Madam, what should we do now?"
Lin Yuxi's face was dark, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. Great! Not only did he slander them, but he also dared to beat them up. Did he think she was dead?
Looking at Cuizhu who was crying, his eyes became colder.
"Cuizhu, don't worry. Since Zheng Laoshi is working for me, I will never let him suffer injustice. I will definitely seek justice for him. If you keep crying like this, you will collapse before I can rescue Zheng Laoshi."
As expected, Cuizhu stopped talking when she heard this, leaving only gasps. Cuiping wiped away her tears with concern. Seeing this, Luyun also squatted down and gently hugged Cuizhu, and the three of them hugged each other.
Tianxi Building!
Lin Yuxi muttered to herself, do you want to take over her prescription? Humph, I'm afraid you still have to get past her.
"Hold the sword!"
Lin Yuxi called out, and a gust of wind blew. The man holding the sword was already standing in the study. He bowed and said respectfully: "I am here."
“Chijian, I want to ask you for a favor.” Chijian was Yang Chenchuan’s man, and she always felt a little embarrassed when ordering him around.
"Master and Young Madam are both Master Zhijian's masters. Young Madam, please just give us your instructions if you have anything to say." The man holding the sword said coolly without a smile.
Lin Yuxi looked at him gratefully and said, "Help me find out the details of Tianxi Tower. Also, please take Cuizhu to Yingshan City. Cuizhu, when you go back, take a doctor to the prison to check on the injuries of Zheng Laoshi and Niu Gaizi. Health is the capital of revolution, so find the best doctor, okay? Also, take care of what needs to be done, don't be reluctant to spend money."
After saying that, Lin Yuxi told Luyun to give three hundred taels to Cuizhu. Cuizhu was so moved that she kowtowed to her while thanking her.
"Alright, alright, it's already this late and you're still kowtowing. What if I hurt your honest brother and he comes after me? Go down and pack up quickly. The sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back!"
Lin Yuxi waved her hands impatiently. She hated to see this the most. She felt as if it would shorten her life when she was constantly asked to kneel down and kowtow to her.
Cuizhu was sad and ashamed. Her face, which was already red from crying, became even redder. She wiped her tears with her sleeves to block their ambiguous gazes.
Really, the young lady has such a mouth... However, the young lady really treats them very well. She looked at Lin Yuxi with gratitude and made up her mind to repay her well in this life. After thanking her, Cuizhu hurried to pack up her things and prepared to go back to Yingshan City with Chijian.
Before leaving with the sword in hand, Lin Yuxi said, "I will tell you, Master."
"Yes!" He responded with the sword in hand and retreated respectfully.
After everyone had left, Lin Yuxi sat on a chair, deep in thought. Lu Yun was waiting by her side, pouring a glass of water for Lin Yuxi and handing it to her, while she kept muttering curses about Tianxi Tower.
"Madam, the boss of Tianxilou must have been a robber in his previous life. What's the difference between this and robbery? He is jealous of our good business and uses these insidious tricks. I think he is very experienced and it doesn't seem like this is his first time. It's so abominable. Such a person will definitely be punished. He even dared to pull the tiger's whiskers of Madam. He really doesn't know how to live or die and doesn't know what's good for him..."
Lu Yun kept cursing. Lin Yuxi drank water and listened to Lu Yun's mumbling. She raised her eyebrows and said suddenly: "So I have tiger whiskers. How come I didn't notice it? Lu Yun, come and pluck them out for me. Otherwise, if my husband sees me, he will dislike me and even divorce me."
Lu Yun was stunned by Lin Yuxi's words. She didn't know whether she was frightened or angry, but her face turned red. She stamped her feet and said, "Madam, please spare me. There is no tiger whisker on your face. I am just making a metaphor, a metaphor!"
"You're shouting so loudly, I don't know how others will deal with me if they hear you. If my reputation is damaged because of this, I will punish you." Lin Yuxi found it funny. Lu Yun knew that she was a little rude, so she stuck out her tongue, but still cursed in a low voice.
Lin Yuxi poked her forehead, calmed herself down, and continued writing her dessert list.
Although Tianxilou was abominable, it couldn't stop her from opening a shop. Didn't he say that she stole their secret recipe? She wanted to show them how she ran the shop. Did they think that they could run a prosperous business by stealing her recipe? Humph, I'm afraid they will be disappointed.
This is not a recipe, but her advantage in living in this world. She is blessed with more than a hundred kinds of food stored in her mind.
So, it was a question of new tricks. She had plenty of new tricks, but Tianxilou didn't have any!
