Chapter 534: Opening a Restaurant

Translator: Lonelytree

She didn’t want to make things difficult for them on purpose, but she was a little displeased that they were treated so badly earlier.

She was acting like a child now. A child who was bullied would definitely want to make a fuss, wouldn’t she?

Shopkeeper Zhang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and immediately bowed to the two of them with great sincerity. “my two guests, it was the waiter and me who looked down on us and offended you. Please forgive my recklessness and rudeness!” This time, it was obviously more clear and more sincere than the last time.

She took out an ingot of silver from her bosom. It was ten taels in total. She said to shopkeeper Zhang coldly, ” shopkeeper, bill please!”

As she said this, she glanced at the food on the table that had not been touched. Then, she saw the beggars outside who were peeking in. She pointed at the food and said, ” let the beggars outside eat these!”

Ten taels of silver for a beggar to eat …

This was a blatant slap to the face of Shopkeeper Zhang and the waiter, as well as the reputation of the restaurant.

Didn’t he say that they couldn’t afford the food?

This was Lin yuelan’s counterattack against them, and it was a heavy blow!

Shopkeeper Zhang was shocked, angry, and extremely nervous. He could only say stiffly, ” okay!” He then instructed the waiter and shouted, ” why are you still standing here? Go and give the food to the beggars outside!”

What an insult.

The signature dish of ‘food is the heaven’ was actually used to serve a beggar.

However, he knew that if he didn’t do this, he would most likely offend County Magistrate Zhou.

Could a restaurant that had offended County Magistrate Zhou still survive in An Ding County?

Shopkeeper Zhang’s face was bitter. He was secretly resentful that he had misjudged them. At the same time, he was even more resentful of the waiter. If he had not misled him, he would not have looked down on them and insulted them. Furthermore, it was heard by the son of County Magistrate Zhou.

The waiter was so scared that his face turned pale, and his hands trembled. He picked up the food on the table and carefully carried it out, not daring to say a word.

This scene caused the surrounding guests to feel bitter in their hearts.

Just now, they seemed to have agreed with shopkeeper Zhang and bullied these two people together. They worried that Lin Yuelan would remember this.

In fact, they were overthinking it.

Lin yuelan didn’t take this matter to heart at all.

Humans were like this.

They used their power to bully others, looked down on others, bullied the weak and feared the strong, and so on. They were just instinctively choosing the side that was most beneficial to them.

Lin yuelan couldn’t bring herself to continue eating.

She nodded at Zhou wencai and said, ” thank you, young master Zhou. I’ll accept your invitation!”

The group of people left just like that, leaving behind a group of surprised expressions.

Lin yuelan and Jiang Zhennan followed Zhou Wencai to the Zhou Manor once again.

This time, they were there to eat.

Looking at these dishes, they seemed to be all appetizing.

However, as soon as Lin yuelan and Jiang Zhennan picked up the food and put it into their mouths, they frowned slightly, but they still ate it without saying anything.

Naturally, Zhou Wencai understood the duo’s expressions.

He had eaten Lin yuelan’s cooking before. Unfortunately, he was in the county city and could not go to Ning An Town often.

Zhou Wencai said with a smile, ” Miss Lin, young master Nan, I’m sorry.”

Jiang Zhennan would not say anything, but Lin yuelan chuckled and said, ” Young master Zhou, you’re really too polite. I’m just a farmer’s daughter. It’s my honor to be able to have a meal at County Magistrate Zhou’s house, even if it’s a simple meal. Moreover, these dishes are all appetizing.”

She was just saying that.

Zhou wencai was also very clear about this in his heart.

After the three of them had their meal, Zhou Wencai probed with a smile, ” Miss Lin, your culinary skills are so good. Why don’t you open a big restaurant in An Ding County?

“If you’re worried about the funds, miss Lin, don’t worry. the Zhou family can gather some money.” Zhou Wencai said. The Zhou family didn’t care about this amount of money. Of course, this money wasn’t embezzled by his father. Zhou Wencai had his saving, in addition to the income he earned from selling some calligraphy and paintings.

Lin yuelan didn’t agree immediately. Instead, she asked, ” I wonder what kind of benefits Mr. Zhou would like after providing a portion of the funds? ”

Lin yuelan had always been very direct when it came to business.

She had already planned to open a restaurant in An Ding County.

However, she had an agreement with Liu Qi that she would not open a restaurant like his in An Ding County. Therefore, this restaurant had to be different from the Liu family’s.
