The hunter's husband is so sweet

Chapter 53 Qi Dazhuang steals the recipe

The people talking in the courtyard didn't pay attention, but the people eavesdropping outside took it seriously. Qi Dazhuang had just left the house, originally planning to go to the town to gamble a few times to get a feel for it, but he found that the door of the Wang family next door was ajar, and intermittent voices could be heard from inside.

Qi Dazhuang was thinking about what was going on, and quietly leaned over to eavesdrop. He heard that they had saved up twenty taels of silver, and even wrote down a recipe to make money and sold it.

If I steal the recipe and sell it before them, wouldn't I be able to make a fortune? Even if they come looking for me, I can say it was my idea or my wife's idea. Who said that only he can cook?

Qi Dazhuang made up his mind and went home to tell his wife about it. No wonder the old saying goes that if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door. After hearing this, his wife Li Qiaoer not only did not think that her husband was stealing, but also thought it was a good idea, and said that she would help keep an eye on the neighbors' movements in the next few days.

Qi Xuan told Fu Jingyi about this after returning home. The two decided to go to Yingkelou to ask tomorrow. If Shopkeeper Wu accepted the recipe, they would open the stall for another day and tell everyone where to buy it later. If not, they would make other plans.

The next morning, Aunt Wang and her family set up their stall on time. Sure enough, there was a long line again, but the couple next to them did not set up their stall. I don't know if they changed their location or what, Aunt Wang didn't care. Everyone was lining up for the pan-fried dumplings, and she was too busy to handle it.

When the stall was closed, Qi Yue roughly counted and found that it was nearly two taels. The group was not in a hurry to go back, so they planned to go to Yingkelou for a meal. When they arrived at Yingkelou, the waiter led them to the private room on the second floor as soon as he saw Fu Jingyi.

"Hunter Fu, there are so many of you, so you should sit in the private room." Fu Jingyi nodded, "Thank you for your trouble," and then ordered a few signature dishes. After that, the waiter left. Not long after, all the dishes were served, and Shopkeeper Wu also arrived, "Brother Fu, you are here." Aunt Wang and the others saw Shopkeeper Wu coming, and just as they were about to get up, they were held down by Shopkeeper Wu, "Hey, don't be polite, eat quickly. If you have anything to say, we can talk after we finish eating."

As he said this, he asked the waiter to bring them a few bowls of peach juice as dessert. "Oh, brother-in-law, your peach juice is really amazing. Our kitchen has already come up with a few more kinds based on yours, hahahaha."

Shopkeeper Wu has been in high spirits recently as he has been blessed with good news. The business of the Yingkelou, which he manages, is getting better and better, and the boss is also satisfied, which has allowed him to make a small profit.

After everyone had finished eating, Aunt Wang told Shopkeeper Wu about the pan-fried dumplings. Shopkeeper Wu happily bought the recipe and said he would never raise the price, so everyone could eat without worry. The recipe was sold for fifty taels of silver. Aunt Wang wrote down the proportions of the fillings very clearly. Qi Xuan even wrote the recipe for spicy rabbit cubes on it.

So the fifty taels also included the money for Tu Ding's prescription, but Qi Xuan didn't take it and gave it all to Aunt Wang. Holding the heavy silver, Aunt Wang felt indescribable. Since Xuan Ge'er and Xiao Yi got married, not only did their lives become richer, but her family also got better, and her eldest son also found someone he liked. She was grateful to Qi Xuan from the bottom of her heart.

Qi Xuan was eating crab roe crisps, but what he was thinking about was crab roe tofu. Hey, I want to eat it. Let's ask the man to buy a piece of tofu some other day. This recipe can also be written down and saved for next time.

When they got home, they found something wrong. First, the lock of the door seemed to have been pried open, although it was not opened. Then there were traces of climbing on the wall next to the door. Aunt Wang was a little anxious, and hurriedly opened the lock and went into the house. She looked at the place where the silver was placed. Fortunately, the silver was fine.

"What's going on?" Qi Xuan was a little anxious, "Godmother, is there anything missing?"

"No." Aunt Wang looked around and found nothing was missing, which was very strange. The box where she put the silver was not hidden very well, and it could be found with a little search.

Qi Zheng went to the door and looked at the tightly closed door next door. He felt something was wrong, so he asked everyone not to say anything for the time being.

"Brother, I think it might be...", Fu Jingyi whispered to Qi Zheng. Sure enough, the two of them had the same idea. It seems that we can't talk about anything in the yard in the future.

Qi Zheng asked everyone to come into the house and expressed his suspicion. "Xiaoxuan, were you discussing the sale of the son with mother in the yard?"

Qi Xuan and Aunt Wang looked at each other and nodded. Qi Zheng continued, "That's it. Someone must have heard your discussion and wanted to steal the recipe."

Hearing this, Qi Xuan still had something to understand, "It's Qi Dazhuang again. Why is he lingering around?" Fu Jingyi patted his back to comfort him.

Aunt Wang knew that Qi Xuan felt that he was the one who caused the trouble, so she comforted him softly, "Xiao Xuan, it has nothing to do with you. This person is just like that by nature."

Qi Xuan was silent for a while, then said, "We are just guessing, we have no evidence. What if... I mean, what if we set a trap for him? Then we can catch him red-handed and then look for the village chief."

"Xiao Xuan, let's forget it. I'm moving the silver to a safer place." Aunt Wang didn't want to get involved with Qi Dazhuang, but Qi Xuan couldn't. "Godmother, why don't you teach him a lesson this time? He'll come again."

Fu Jingyi also echoed, "Godmother, we can't always be so nervous in the future."

"Yes, mother. This is not something we can just tolerate." Qi Zheng also felt that he should be taught a lesson.

Aunt Wang saw that the children were so persistent, so she stopped talking. Everyone came up with a plan. First, Aunt Wang and Qi Xuan said in the yard that the recipe for pan-fried dumplings sold for a lot of money, and then they wrote another recipe and would sell it tomorrow. In the afternoon, the whole family went to Qi Xuan's house for dinner. It was convenient for Qi Dazhuang to come, so they could catch him in the act.

After making the decision, Aunt Wang and Qi Xuan went to the yard. "Godmother, I didn't expect this recipe to sell for so much money." Qi Xuan deliberately lowered her voice.

"Yes, yes. Now life at home will be better." Aunt Wang also responded with a smile.

"Then let's go again tomorrow and sell these two recipes. Didn't you say that you wanted Big Brother and Xiaochen to get engaged first? Now that we have the money, it will be easier to get things done." Qi Zheng and Lin Chen in the room both blushed when they heard this.

Qi Yue was still joking on the side, "Tsk tsk tsk, they're getting engaged." Qi Zheng had never been able to do anything with his own brother, and Lin Chen was too embarrassed to pay any attention to him.

After a while, Aunt Wang and Qi Xuan returned to the house. Seeing Qi Zheng and Lin Chen's uncomfortable expressions, they knew that they had heard it too. "Xiao Chen, what godmother said is true." Aunt Wang held Lin Chen's hand, "I know that Grandma Lin passed away not long ago, and it's not appropriate for you to get married this year, but let's settle the marriage first and talk about the wedding next year. Do you think it's okay?"

Lin Chen looked at Qi Xuan awkwardly, not knowing how to answer. Qi Xuan didn't say anything, but just winked at Lin Chen, indicating that he could make his own decision.

Qi Zheng seemed to have finally come to his senses after he confessed his feelings to Lin Chen. "Xiao Chen, don't worry, I will definitely treat you well."

Lin Chen blushed and nodded, which was considered as an agreement. Everyone was happy that Lin Chen agreed, Qi Xuan was on the top and was pushing CP, Fu Jingyi said a little bit to spoil the mood, "Let's go first, we don't want to hang Qi Dazhuang."

As soon as these words came out, everyone rolled their eyes. Fu Jingyi was also aggrieved, and he was speaking the truth.
