Chapter 143 - 143 You Will Not Have a Chance
Shen Yao ignored him and did not even look at him.
Qin Minghong rubbed his nose awkwardly. He felt like he had punched cotton!
“That day, I saw Miss Ah Tao at Octagonal Guests. She’s very interesting.” The scene from that day appeared in his mind again. Qin Minghong couldn’t help but smile, and his tone couldn’t help but soften.
!!
“Later, I found out that she was already married. I felt a little disappointed.” Even though Shen Yao ignored him, Qin Minghong continued, “Now that I know that you’re the one she married, I’m not so depressed anymore.”
The man in front of him was just a cripple.
There was nothing to fear.
How could Shen Yao not hear the threat and mockery in his words? It was just that he and Ah Tao were already expressed their feelings, so the man in front of him was just a clown in his eyes.
“You won’t have the chance.” Shen Yao suddenly looked up and smiled.
The smile on his face was so confident that it even made Qin Minghong a little dazed.
After choosing two books and paying the bill, Shen Yao left the bookstore and went to his brother’s pastry shop.
Eldest Brother Shen, who was entertaining guests, accidentally caught a glimpse of his third brother’s dark face. He hurriedly walked up to him and asked with concern, “Third Brother, what’s wrong?”
“The weather is hot and I’m a little frustrated. Big Brother, I’ll go to the kitchen to drink water first.” Shen Yao explained briefly and hurriedly turned around to go to the kitchen.
Shen Yao gulped down two large scoops of cold water in one breath. Only then did he feel the anger in his heart suppressed!
It was almost noon, but Ji Zhao was still in the kitchen of the Ma Residence, so busy that her feet did not touch the ground.
The crystal lamb jelly was ready. She was carefully cutting it into pieces. Then, she mixed a bowl of sauce and placed it beside the white porcelain plate.
At 1:15 pm, Ji Zhao, who could finally rest, held a bowl of red bean porridge and drank it with relish.
Her mission today had been completed. As long as Old Madam Ma liked her cooking, she could discuss with Second Brother You about opening a fried snack shop.
The more Ji Zhao thought about it, the happier she became. When she opened the shop, she could still afford a courtyard and buy a house—
Just as Ji Zhao was happily thinking about the future, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
Butler Ma rushed into the kitchen and said happily, “Miss Ah Tao, Old Madam tasted your crystal lamb jelly and praised it endlessly! She specially instructed me to send this reward to you!”
“The Old Madam is too kind.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly, a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes.
For a chef, the greatest achievement was the customer’s recognition of her culinary skills.
Unable to dissuade the enthusiastic Butler Ma, Ji Zhao still took the two taels of silver. However, she handed the silver in her hand to Butler Ma.
“Miss Ah Tao?” Ma Tong raised his eyebrows in confusion, but the hand holding the silver never let go.
“If Butler Ma hadn’t taken care of me, I wouldn’t have had the chance to come to the Ma Residence to show off my culinary skills. In short, you must accept it. This is also a token of my appreciation.”
“Miss Ah Tao, you’re too kind…” Ma Tong smiled sheepishly and put the two taels of silver in his pocket front of her.
“By the way, there are many wealthy gentry attending the old madam’s birthday banquet today. Miss Ah Tao, why don’t you make some snacks and distribute them before the banquet ends?” After obtaining the two taels of silver, Ma Tong was naturally willing to give her more advice. “I heard from Second Manager You that Miss Ah Tao’s husband’s eldest brother has a pastry shop?”
