She was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses, "Yes, I am the shopkeeper here."
"Okay then, what does your dish, sweet and sour pork ribs, mean? Isn't the pork ribs sweet?"
"Of course there is."
Su Liuye laughed when she heard his question. There were many customers coming to Cyclamen, but few would ask this question.
She briefly introduced how to make sweet and sour pork ribs.
The man listened thoughtfully and quickly pointed to another dish and asked her, "What does this pulled pork ribs mean?"
Su Liuye explained briefly and asked, "Sir, since you are interested, why not find a place to sit down first, and I will order some dishes for you, so you can try them?"
The man pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Can I go and have a look in your kitchen?"
"kitchen?"
Su Liuye was stunned. The kitchen was not a place where customers could enter. Even the waiters in some shops were not allowed to come in and out at will.
She suddenly smiled awkwardly, "I'm so sorry, sir, our kitchen is not accessible to anyone."
"I just went in to take a look." The man didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what he did. "I just came to Luoxi Town and heard that the wine and food here are delicious, so I came over to take a look. The food here is , I haven’t seen it anywhere else.”
"It's really an honor for me to be appreciated by our guest. But our signature dishes are not shared with others. Otherwise, you can try our dishes first. If you really like it, I can make it after we close." Arrange a meeting with our chef, and then you can ask him in person."
The man thought for a moment and it was obvious that he was reluctant, but he nodded and said, "Okay, you first serve me a sweet and sour pork ribs and a carrot pork ribs, and I will taste what they taste like."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
"Just help me carry the dishes to the wing upstairs. My friend should be waiting for me upstairs."
"upstairs?"
Su Liuye was confused. If he remembered correctly, there was only one wing in the wing upstairs, which was the one where Chu Yan was.
"Who are you--"
Before she could ask who this man was, he walked towards the second floor.
Su Liuye frowned, wondering if this person was the new Mr. Xiao? So young?
"Auntie, is this the woman?"
Just as he was thinking about it, an angry shout suddenly came from behind him.
Su Liuye was startled, and turned around to see Wu Sheng, Wu's mother, and several familiar faces blocking the door.
"Yes, that's this woman!" Mother Wu's eyes were filled with resentment, and she turned around and asked Wu Sheng, "What? Ah Sheng, were you blackmailed by this woman?"
"That's her!" Wu Sheng's eyes were splitting with anger, "Didn't this woman just drop a few pieces of cloth on the ground? She even accused me of breaking it and asked me to pay fifty taels!"
"Fifty taels?!"
As soon as these words came out, several aunts of the Wu family were shocked and waited for Su Liuye with angry eyes, "What do you mean, woman? You robbed our Wu family's store and now you are blackmailing us. Do you really think that I am the Wu family?" You can’t bully!”
"Am I blackmailing?"
Su Liuye smiled. She really didn't expect that Wu Sheng would go back and complain to the Wu family, and even bring people over to make trouble in an aggressive manner.
"It's difficult, isn't it?"
Wu Sheng's neck shrank, and the arm that was hit last time was still aching. But he looked around and saw that Su Liuye was the only one here, and he immediately became bolder again.
Wu's mother walked out from him and snorted coldly at Su Liuye, "You are such a hateful vicious woman! I knew you were greedy for our Wu family's money!"
"This store has been here for so long, and Zhang's woman never thought of selling it. As soon as you came, she sold the store immediately! Within a few days, you found an excuse to blackmail us again, what's the matter? Do you think our Wu family is easy to bully?"
"Are you easy to bully?"
Su Liuye simply heard the joke and said sarcastically, "Auntie, could you please take a closer look? Now it's you who brought a group of people to block the entrance of my store. I didn't bring people to find you. You Why do you say I bullied you?"
"I do not care!"
Mother Wu's face had already become thick-skinned. When she heard Su Liuye's words, she not only didn't feel ashamed, she even stared angrily and said, "Hurry up and call that woman Zhang out!"
"Why should I listen to you?" Su Liuye clicked her tongue and turned back to the waiter who was passing by, "Hurry up and report to the Yamen that someone is hindering our business."
"Okay, shopkeeper, I'll go now -"
"what do you mean?"
Before the waiter could move, Mother Wu scolded, "Why can't I come here to find Mrs. Zhang? She is my daughter-in-law, and I am looking for her. What qualifications do you have to stop me? Call the official?! You know how to call the official all day long." , I don’t know if you, a woman, use this matter every day to intimidate others!”
"That's right!"
The aunt next to me echoed, "I also heard that you, the cyclist, caused a lot of problems in Qinghe Town before you came here, and even made people hungry! You just came to us because you couldn't drive in Qinghe Town. Yeah, who knows if the things in your store are clean?"
"If the things in my store were not clean, I would have had problems in the past few days since I opened." Su Liuye said coldly, "You came to my place today just to ask Zhang Niang to give you money, why do you need to say so much? talk?"
"Laifuxuan was originally left to her by Zhang's parents, and her name is also written on the land deed. What does it have to do with your Wu family? Do you think I don't know what your Wu family is doing?"
"What have we done?" Wu's mother frowned, her eyes flashing because of her guilty conscience. But she didn't believe that Mrs. Zhang really told Su Liuye everything, "She is still my Ah Ping's daughter-in-law. Now that Ah Ping is back, don't you want to see his wife? When will it be your turn to take care of her?"
"Mother Zhang said she wanted to reconcile, but you were greedy for her money and didn't want to. Now you still want to see someone? No way!"
Really too lazy to tangle with such a person, Su Liuye went back and asked the waiter to find someone from the government.
People from the Wu family blocking the door would only hinder her from opening the door for business.
"You are such a ungrateful woman!"
Wu's mother was so angry that her face was distorted by her back. She looked around and saw a small wooden stick on the ground. Her face was twisted, and she directly picked up the wooden stick and threw it at Su Liuye, "What makes you such an arrogant woman?" ,Who do you think you are!"
"what are you doing!"
Angry scolding came from the store, and Su Liuye happened to see Mr. Zhang coming from the backyard with a pale face and anger in his watery eyes.
Then, a "whoosh" sound passed by her ears, and there was only a muffled sound, and the wooden stick that was about to hit her back was knocked off.
