When Qin Lian saw this scene, she subconsciously touched her hair, worried that she had accidentally lost it.
The faces of the ladies from aristocratic families nearby changed when they saw this, and their eyes were full of disgust when they looked at Qin Lian.
"How do you have the nerve to serve these things to your guests?"
"That's right! How can a restaurant like this become the best restaurant in town?"
"I heard it's because the shopkeeper of Cyclamen has a good relationship with the new Mr. Xiao! The shopkeeper also goes to look for Mr. Xiao all day long. Who knows if there is something behind it-"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Hearing that they wanted to slander Su Liuye, Qin Lian interrupted loudly, "I personally checked these side dishes before they were brought over, and they were all fine! It must be because the wind was too strong on the way here, so..." At this point, she bit her lower lip. She really didn't expect that she would make such a stupid mistake.
If she were in a restaurant, she would just change a side dish for the guests, but this was at the Liu family's banquet, and these side dishes were all used to entertain the guests.
"You mean, you also admit that this is yours?"
The young lady who just spoke rolled her eyes, "That's because you made a mistake. It's really disappointing! It's rare to come out to a banquet and encounter such a thing, but luckily we saw it. If Uncle Liu and the others saw it, it would be really bad luck. Got it!"
"That's right."
The person next to me said with a straight face, "I have lost my appetite after seeing these things."
Listening to their comments, Qin Lian felt uncomfortable.
As she is busy in the restaurant every day, she occasionally encounters such a situation, but the customers usually don't care much and just ask the waiter to change the dishes to another plate.
But the ladies from the aristocratic families in front of them didn't say a word. Instead, they kept mocking Cyclamen. Maybe this was their purpose.
She was too careless!
Listening to their slanderous words, Qin Lian felt very uncomfortable, "A few of them——"
"Miss Cousin, you are here."
Qin Lian was about to speak when a person came from the path beside her. It was the aunt beside the old lady.
"Aunt Ye, why are you here?"
Song Xiao stood up in surprise.
Aunt Ye smiled and said, "It was the old lady who asked me to come here to see Miss Biao. She said she wanted to see you for something."
"Is the old lady looking for me?"
Song Xiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening. After saying goodbye to the ladies in the pavilion, she followed Aunt Ye and left.
Aunt Ye glanced at Qin Lian when she turned around.
Qin Lian immediately understood what was going on and followed Aunt Ye's movements and left together.
Song Xiao's face darkened slightly after seeing her actions. She didn't want Qin Lian to leave so easily, but Aunt Ye was still here, so she couldn't get angry. She could only watch Qin Lian leave, feeling extremely angry.
Today is the winter banquet. In a few days, she will have no chance to find this woman. She originally wanted to humiliate her now, but who knows that Aunt Ye is here.
After returning to the kitchen, Qin Lian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the winter banquet was being held and there were still many things to be busy in the kitchen, otherwise she would have gone back directly.
This Liu Mansion is really no place for humans!
I was busy until nightfall, and the winter banquet ended successfully.
Because of Cyclamen's unique cooking skills, the guests all had a great time at the banquet and received a lot of praise.
The Liu Mansion also specially arranged a wing for them, allowing them to rest there overnight and pack up the remaining tools tomorrow.
Qin Lian originally didn't want to stay, but after looking at the sky, she had no choice but to stay.
During the night, Qin Lian had been worried about whether the Liu family would take advantage of this time to come and cause trouble for her. Fortunately, nothing happened throughout the night.
Early the next morning, Qin Lian followed Shi Feng and others to take care of the remaining matters, and went back with Liu's money.
The housekeeper of the Liu Mansion was quite satisfied with them and said that he would invite them to visit the cyclamen at the next New Year's banquet.
Qin Lian couldn't make the final decision on these matters, so he asked them to go to Xiankelai next time to discuss them.
Liu Mansion's housekeeper chuckled and said, "Girl, our old lady likes your pastries very much. You can send some over later."
"good."
Qin Lian agreed, and after returning to Cyclamen, she told Su Liuye everything and asked the kitchen to prepare pastries.
Su Liuye said, "The winter banquet of the Liu Mansion has been taken care of. I will not take any orders from the Liu Mansion in the future."
"A Liu, are you worried that the Liu family will set a trap to harm us?"
"Yes." Su Liuye didn't hide it anymore.
Now her Jinxiu Shop is in full swing in the town, and many ladies and ladies in the town like to order clothes from her store. The orders alone have been queued up for several months.
The business is so good that it naturally attracts the envy of others. Now many people have tried to open a silk and satin shop in the town, hoping to see the reaction of the Liu family.
The Liu family was naturally dissatisfied with this, but because of Master Xiao's suppression, the Liu family did not dare to say anything and could only acquiesce to this behavior. But Xiao Yun currently has no intention of suppressing the Liu family. When the Liu family held a winter banquet, Xiao Yun also attended, letting the Liu family know that he did not intend to let the Liu family collapse. If the Liu family can live in peace, Luoxi Town will naturally be able to tolerate it. them.
The Liu family has been the king and hegemon in Luoxi Town for so long, and they are unwilling to give up their monopoly on major silk and satin shops suddenly. Su Liuye is the one who caused all this. If Su Liuye hadn't been there, The first silk and satin shop not owned by the Liu family opened in the town, and others did not dare to imitate it.
The Liu family did not dare to offend Xiao Yun, but they held a grudge against her. The last time Liu Sanshi came forward to cause trouble, it was actually with the permission of the Liu family.
Under this situation, she really didn't want to take any more orders from the Liu family.
"Okay, then I'll tell the Liu family." Qin Lian nodded.
"Lianlian, did you have any conflict with the Liu family?" Su Liuye asked.
Qin Lian's face turned pale. Before she could think of an explanation, Su Liuye asked, "Yesterday you were suddenly called by the Liu family. You didn't come back until the next day. They said that the Liu family wanted you to help in the small kitchen. ?Why don’t you ask Shi Feng to do this?”
Qin Lian was helping in the kitchen. She was not proficient in cooking. How could the Liu family ask her to go to the small kitchen? Su Liuye knew this a long time ago, but he didn't ask clearly on the spot.
"Aliu, I didn't..."
"Lianlian, it's okay if you don't tell me." Su Liuye held her hand, "But the Liu family now sees me as a thorn in their side. If you have too much contact with them, they will definitely target you as well."
"A Liu, don't worry, I really didn't!" Qin Lian made up her mind not to tell her, and said with a smile on her face, "I met their old lady in the Liu Mansion these days. This old lady is very kind. If someone likes me, I will go and help without doing anything. If Liu Mansion really has other ideas, I will run away myself!"
