Chapter 6 Old Tom’s Broth (Part 2)

This broth was indeed surprisingly fragrant. Even though Paine was a man of two generations, he had never seen such an alluring broth.

In his previous life, Paine worked as the chief food editor at Blue Star, and in this life he became the son of a noble family. He had eaten all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas. But those delicacies seemed extremely ordinary compared to the bowl of broth in front of me.

A bowl of crude broth with floating oil actually gave Paine an unprecedented appetite.

"There's something wrong with this broth..."

Paine thought to himself that it was unusual for this crudely made broth to have such an amazing aroma. This was not a gourmet world!

"It has an extremely rich meaty aroma. There seems to be some strange things mixed in this soup."

Paine keenly captured the strangeness in the broth.

"Old Tom! How did you make this broth? Why is it so fragrant! I think I have eaten delicious food all my life, but I have never seen such a fragrant broth. It is already so rich even before I enter the mouth. This meat is extraordinary. Or is your seasoning unusual?"

"Hahaha, this is my old Tom's unique skill! I can't tell you casually!"

Old Tom showed a sly smile, "Young people like you will definitely like it very much. Don't ask, just drink it! Not only is the soup delicious, but the meat inside is also delicious! Just put it in your mouth Just chew it and you will know how delicious it is! Come on, eat it quickly!"

Old Tom handed Paine a spoon.

Naturally, Paine didn't dare to eat food from strangers hastily. He had quite a shadow of this kind of fairy tale world, so he took the spoon and just stirred it in the soup, but did not drink it immediately.

"Old Tom, let's get down to business first."

"What are you in a hurry for? Let's wait until you finish drinking the broth." Old Tom looked a little unhappy.

Paine threw the money bags directly on the table.

"Please forgive me, I am just impatient."

Old Tom's eyes moved to the money bag, and his serious face relaxed.

"You - hey, young people are just impatient, so you can ask, don't talk nonsense like asking for life experience, what do you want to ask?"

"What do you know about this place, Old Tom?"

Paine got to the point of his question, because in his opinion, this village was definitely no ordinary village, and he had to find out what secrets were hidden here.

"I moved here thirty years ago. I was one of the first residents here. How much do you think I know? Young foreign traveler, you'd better ask more specific questions."

Old Tom looked like an old god.

Paine thought for a moment and decided to ask about Cinderella first.

"There is a girl named Cinderella here. How much do you know about her family?"

"Cinderella? That dirty girl?"

Old Tom gave Paine a strange look, "What did you ask her for?"

"Of course I have my own reasons. You don't have to worry about this. Do you know the situation of her and her family?"

"Everyone in this village knows that that girl is also unlucky. Her mother died when she was very young. Her good-for-nothing father later found a vicious foreign woman and brought along two evil-minded trolls. Hmph ! Her good-for-nothing father only knows how to go out with the caravan to do business all day long, and never takes care of her at home. That girl has been abused by her stepmother and two sisters. "

Old Tom's tone became indignant.
