The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 736

Chapter 736: 736 Jin Xun disappointed

However, boasting a bit and enhancing one’s own advantages and competitiveness is not a problem.

After hearing this, Tao Meijiao thought deeply, “I’ll keep your kindness in mind. Go invite them. Since we’re talking business, if there’s truly investment value in the purchase, I’ll do my best to save the Tao family restaurant’s business.”

Xiao Yuchuan looked at his wife calmly discussing business, able to keep the business in her favor without being blinded by so-called friendship. He suddenly felt his wife was truly extraordinary.

Maybe she had always been this outstanding; it’s just that he… or the Xiao family or even everyone simply never discovered it.

His wife is an extremely clever woman… among all people in the world, none could surpass her.

Su Qingyue said to Xiao Yuchuan, “Third brother, go invite Boss Jin and Manager Duan. Just say Su Qingyue invites them to try a new dish.”

He nodded in understanding, “I’ll go right away.” And then he walked towards the outside of the Tao Mansion.

After a while, the ingredients and seasonings Su Qingyue requested were all prepared in the Tao family’s kitchen.

Before Su Qingyue started cooking, the sounds of footsteps echoed outside the kitchen.

“Wife!” Xiao Yuchuan called out from outside the kitchen.

“Come in.” Su Qingyue’s voice echoed in the kitchen.

Xiao Yuchuan walked into the kitchen, “Manager Duan and Boss Jin have some business and will come later. I came back first for now.”

“Mmm.” She nodded and started cooking the prepared dishes.

Tao Meijiao and her maid Du Juan were also in the kitchen.

Du Juan tended the stove fire, while Tao Meijiao and Xiao Yuchuan watched intently from the side.

The ingredients were all pre-cut by the chefs. Su Qingyue had also placed the dishes in plates, a total of eight dishes.

The Tao family’s kitchen had an abundance of seasonings. Su Qingyue stood in front of the stove and began cooking the first dish.

Smoke from the oil curled up, yet even when she was holding the pot, her movements were still elegant. Just watching her cook was a pleasure.

Fern fried chicken intestines, dried fern stewed pork skin, dry fern braised black chicken, dry fern braised pork, and the other dishes were gradually placed on the stove.

The aroma filled the entire kitchen.

Xiao Yuchuan and Tao Meijiao couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.

At this time, Boss Jin Xun of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and Manager Duan of the Rich Source Tavern were led to the kitchen doorway by a Tao Mansion servant.

“Young Lady, Boss Jin and Manager Duan are here.” The respectful voice of the Tao Mansion servant.

“Let them in.” Tao Meijiao said as soon as she finished speaking.

Jin Xun and Manager Duan walked into the kitchen.

Manager Duan didn’t bring a servant, and Jin Xun’s servant, Ji, waited respectfully at the kitchen doorway.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Jin Xun’s gaze fell on Su Qingyue. It had been a long time since he had seen her, and she had become more graceful. Moreover, her face had recovered from the sores, revealing exceptionally good-looking features, but her skin was dull and blemished, making her look ordinary in appearance.

He had originally thought that once her sores were healed, her appearance would be worth looking forward to…

Such an ordinary appearance, a touch of disappointment flashed in Jin Xun’s eyes.

The disappointment disappeared quickly, but Su Qingyue’s sharp eyes still caught it. She sneered slightly, not understanding what Jin Xun was disappointed about.

Unsatisfied with her appearance? She wasn’t his person anyway.

The mocking smile at the corner of her lips made Jin Xun’s heart inexplicably clench, feeling guilty. He didn’t know why he felt guilty about being caught by her thoughts.
