《Little chef》7-Let's see which one had better business
Advertisement
Although Shi Ding acted meekly in front of Qi Tian Yun, he was an eight-foot-tall man. The presence of someone in the military was enough to make most people around him tremble!
Not to mention second aunt Su.
She couldn't imagine how things would develop to this point.
That girl made so much money yesterday and she was still going to get more today?
That would not happen on her watch.
The reason she got up early today was to drive all the guests away.
She almost succeeded in her plot to destroy the cake's popularity, but Su Tang came out with a few words and made everyone accuse her.
Second Aunt Su shouted angrily and pointed to Su Tang and said, "What are you talking about?! Who has stolen things from your house?! Don't lie!"
Su Tang had tears in her eyes and she cried when she spoke: "Second aunt, don't be angry it's all my fault. I won't say anything anymore, so don't beat me and my brother. If you want me to sell soft cakes, then I'll give you a bit later."
Su Jin Hang naturally heard the noise outside and hurried out to protect her sister: "Don't hit my sister, don't hit."
Seeing this, the people around only felt that the siblings were too pitiful.
She must have been bullied miserably by her aunt to be able to talk like that.
"My father took care of your family when he was alive, but what about you?"
"Second aunt Su, you should be more virtuous. These two children are already very pitiful. Even as a relative if you don't help them. How could you still bully them?"
"I didn't expect you to be such a person."
"Don't tell us that you were jealous of your niece's soft cakes, so you spread those rumors on purpose?"
"How could you be so shameful? You are asking for their money after they worked so hard to sell those cakes?"
Second Aunt Su's face was hot when she was scolded by people.
How can you say that to me, how can you!
Su Tang used to be unable to argue even half a sentence with her, so what's going on now?
Shi Ding's eyes showed their shock.
How could there be such a person?!
Shi Ding immediately felt his sense of justice stirring from this story. The money that the little girl had worked so hard to make was about to be robbed.
"Don't say anything else, I'm going to your house to see if you robbed someone else's table and chair." Shi Ding looked awe-inspiring while commanding his men to search the second aunt's house.
Second aunt Su was so angry when soldiers from all over the barracks rushed over.
Qi Tian Yun looked at Su Tang whose eyes were slightly red and felt something was wrong.
He couldn't quite piece it out, so in the end he asked himself. What bad intentions can this little girl have? He just had a feeling about it, while the other people couldn't.
He naturally came here to have breakfast today.
After returning home yesterday, Qi Tian Yun asked the cooks at home to make pancakes, egg tea, and even the egg sponge cake according to Su Tang's recipe.

However, none of them were as delicious as what Su Tang makes.
He had to disappoint the chefs.
For the first time, Qi Tian Yun wanted to eat the same dish so much.
Before he could leave, Shing Ding came to look for him. He wanted to remind him that the second round of the God of Cooking Contest was in a few days, so he came to ask him to attend.
What's the point of saying that?
He already decided to go, since he wanted to see how many recipes Su Tang could make.
Qi Tian Yun was already looking forward to it.
While Qi Tian Yun was staring at Su Tang, he heard Shi Ding shouting: "It's the proof! Still saying you did not steal?"
The people behind Shi Ding carried out the tables and chairs found at Aunt Su's house.
Su Jin Hang also followed people from behind to point out all the things from his house.
The people around were gasping in amazement to see that they hadn't even let go of a pot in the restaurant. Are you still relatives?
Shi Ding's people walked out of Aunt Su's house carrying things. They were followed by the second uncle and his children. All of them looked embarrassed.
These tables and chairs are not even expensive but Second Aunt Su, why was this person so stingy?
Second Aunt Su argued: "Did they write their family name on it? Obviously, my family bought these things by themselves."
Su Jin Hang immediately said: "Your house only sells some steamed buns and steamed bread. You don't even need tables and chairs at all. These tables and chairs are exactly the same as ours. If you don't believe me, please go and see. There are two sets of tables and chairs left in the house that are the exact same!"
Second Aunt Su's expression turned ugly when she heard that.
She could never have imagined that they would expose her in front of all these people.
Shi Ding received the instructions from the Marquis Qi Tian Yun. He was to take Aunt Su's family away for the crime of stealing property and bullying the weak. They must be beaten with the board for their punishment.
This was the end of the drama.
Su Tang and Su Jin Hang hurriedly thanked Shi Ding and the other soldiers and said: "If lord officers are free, you can come to my small restaurant to eat breakfast. I can't do anything else but I can cook."
Su Tang winked at Su Jin Hang after she said that.
Su Jin Hang hurriedly wrapped up over 20 fresh sponge cakes.
The smell of egg sponge cakes attracted everyone's attention. When they saw the cakes, their eyes popped out.
Second aunt Su Definity slandered this cake because she was afraid of others having good business right?
The rumors haven't settled yet and someone was already going to the small restaurant to buy egg sponge cakes.
Shi Ding did not expect to receive such a thank you gift, and it was so sweet and soft.
Shi Ding let all of his subordinates accept the cakes after making sure the cake price was not expensive.

The military officers seem to look much more comfortable in the morning heat after having a bite of the cake.
They rarely ate this kind of sweet and greasy food, so they didn't expect it to be so good.
"Little girl, can you keep some for us? I want to buy some for my wife and daughter to eat." The subordinate next to Shi Ding said.
He finished eating his cake in two bites, so he knew that his wife and kids would love it.
Su Tang smiled and nodded: "Of course, I will keep it for you later."
Qi Tian Yun watched and the strange feeling in his heart rose again.
Su Tang had established good relationships with the patrol guards in moments. If these officers would go to her small restaurant often for dinner in the future, there will be no one who dares cause trouble here.
Su Tang still didn't know that her thoughts were almost seen through.
She made this connection on purpose since it was a good chance to establish a relationship with the patrol guards.
Shi Ding led his people away, but the passersby did not leave.
They also want to buy soft cakes! However, they felt hesitant because they recalled second aunt Su's words.
Just when everyone was hesitating, a sedan chair carried by four people came to the shop. The fat steward got down from the sedan chair, but he couldn't help but be a little anxious since he saw that the store was crowded.
"Owner, owner. How many soft cakes do you still have in your house?! Our Li family wants them all!" The fat steward hurriedly entered the small restaurant.
Since the steward saw no one else inside, he took a moment to check if he was in the right place.
Su Tang had come up to greet him and said politely: "I made a thousand of them today. I will wrap as many as you want."
The fat steward slaps his thigh: "All of it! All of it! I thought I was late! Yesterday my wife bought your family's soft cakes and liked them very much. Then, she gave some to the old ancestors for a taste and they liked it very much too. It just so happens that old ancestors are going to return to their homeland today. I think we need to bring some more food on the road. The Madam said to buy a lot and give everyone a share."
All the people seeing this were dumbfounded.
Some people also recognized this fat steward. He was clearly the butler of the Yangzhou silk merchant and a well-known wealthy businessman.
Their family ancestors never saw cakes like this and liked to eat it as well?
What are they waiting for?!
Buy them quickly!
There were so many people coming in that the two siblings were pushed into the counter for a while.
Everyone could only watch as Su Tang wrapped nine hundred soft cakes for the fat steward because he came in and bought them all.
The patrol officers reserved the last one hundred cakes.
Everyone had no choice but to watch the fat steward leave happily, bragging about how much their family members would enjoy these cakes.
900 soft cakes was not a small amount, but they had many people in their family.
People around him who listen are simply envious to death.
Everyone else blamed that evil woman, but it was too late for regrets.
Su Tang was closing up shop when someone ran up to ask: "Little girl, will you still sell this soft cake tomorrow?"
Su Tang smiled: "I will still sell the cakes in a smaller quantity, but I will also sell some dishes as well."
She naturally can't just rely on cakes to earn money if she wants to run a successful restaurant.
Su Tang was planning to introduce other dishes slowly, but she changed her mind after today.
Besides, she wanted to close the door quickly before someone's piercing gaze saw through her.
Just now, she pretended to be weak and cried on purpose to let the crowd hate her second Aunt Su and to sympathize with her.
Everyone else was full of sympathy.
Only that beautiful man seemed to be able to sense something.
She felt her heart shudder!
She can't let this man have time to discover anything!
Qi Tian Yun watched the little chef closing the door of the small restaurant from his spot.
The imperial guards beside him couldn't help but say: "Marquis, what shall we do? Do you still want to have breakfast ?"
Both of them came over without eating breakfast, but they didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
One of the imperial guards started to say: "This little chef is really pitiful. Such relatives bullied her."
Qi Tian Yun raised the corner of his mouth: "Was she bullied?"
The imperial guard was confused because he didn't understand the meaning behind the questions.
Qi Tian Yun turned around: "Go back to the guardhouse and talk to Shi Ding. Let him go to the small restaurant to buy the soft cakes after he finishes processing the punishment. Tell him that his master still hasn't had breakfast yet and let him figure the rest out."
Imperial guard:!!!
Yes! People can't buy it! But the patrol guards can!
Furthermore, Shi Ding was the captain of the patrol guard!
Marquis was so smart!
Su Tang was so happy seeing everything returned to her store.
However, this was far from enough for her. The original Su Tang had lost her life. As the saying goes, 'An eye for an eye.
Su Tang looked at her brother and slowly said, "They sell steamed bread and steamed buns next door, right? We will also sell steamed bread and steamed buns tomorrow morning. I'd like to see who's better at this business between our two families."
Su Jin Hang looked at her sister in disbelief, but he felt happy in his heart!
His sister was really amazing.
Wait until the family next door comes out of the Law enforcement department after the board's punishment and when she sees that her business has also been robbed, her face must look very good!
