I married a playboy at the beginning, and I changed my fate by eating delicious food

Just think about it, if they had to calculate the exact amount of money when they went out for a meal, other royal merchants would think that the Lan family was penniless if this got out.

Moreover, having money can also help you get better treatment.

Wang Wu was overjoyed and accepted it, expressing his gratitude repeatedly. He thought he could take more orders like this in the future.

After Ah Cai sent Wang Wu out, Lan Lizhou couldn't wait to open the oil paper bag. In an instant, the spicy and fragrant smell filled the air.

The seasoning and meat mixed together are all red and greasy, and look very appetizing.

He picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly, squinting his eyes in satisfaction. The taste was so refreshing, and the rabbit meat was not dry at all. He reached out to pinch the meat more and more frequently.

When Ah Cai came back after sending the people back, half a bag of rabbit meat had been eaten, and most of the rest was peppers.

Ah Cai looked at Lan Lizhou accusingly, "Master, you really don't plan to leave some for me?"

If he came back a little later, all the meat would be gone, which would make him very sad.

Lan Lizhou was a little embarrassed. He couldn't help himself. The more he ate, the tastier it became. Facing Ah Cai's incredulous gaze, he said awkwardly, "The remaining half of the bag is yours."

"Thank you, young master," Ah Cai said, but there was still some condemnation on his face.

Any other servant would not dare to be so bold. He behaved like this because they grew up together and had a deep friendship. He knew that Lan Lizhou would not care about it.

Ah Cai reached out and took the opened bag from Lan Lizhou. He picked out a relatively large piece of meat from the pile of peppers, threw it into his mouth, swallowed it, and asked, "Is this rabbit meat?"

He hadn't read the letter, so he didn't know what was said about the food.

Lan Lizhou stared at what Ah Cai was holding, salivating. "Yes, this is called cold rabbit. Just eat it cold."

Then he tried to reach his hand into the bag across the table, but Ah Cai turned away and raised his eyebrows, "Master, what are you doing? Didn't we agree that the remaining half of the bag belongs to me?"

"I just want to try whether the chili peppers are edible," Lan Lizhou said seriously.

Ah Cai smiled secretly in his heart, even though the young master had lost his memory, his character remained unchanged. Everyone thought he was a gentleman and polite, but in fact he also showed an immature side.

"It's edible, but it tastes like chili, not as good as meat," Acai said after taking a piece of chili and tasting it.

"Okay then," Lan Lizhou turned his gaze back to the account book, not looking at Ah Cai's happy expression while eating.

Seeing the young master like this, Ah Cai stopped joking and tore the oil paper bag a little bigger and put it on the table, "Young master, do you want to try it again? It's really delicious. It should be made by Miss Xu again."

Lan Lizhou was greedy to begin with, so he wouldn't listen to any advice. As soon as Ah Cai finished speaking, he followed his heart and started eating with the food.

The two of them picked and chose among the peppers, not leaving out even a single bit of meat. You might have thought they were looking for gold, but they were still not satisfied with the meal.

Seeing Ah Cai looking at the other bag, Lan Lizhou remained rational and said, "Don't touch that bag for now. Let my mother have a taste when we have dinner together tonight."

The New Year is coming soon. Father Lan has been busy with the tribute recently and is not at home most of the time at night, so there is no need for everyone to eat together.

Lan Lizhou felt that this was good, and it would be even better if it could always be like this. When he first came back, everyone ate together every day. In addition to Aunt Qiu and her children, there were also several other aunts. The atmosphere was serious and he could hardly eat.

Upon seeing this, Acai said nothing more. He crumpled the dirty oil paper bag into a ball, held it in his hand, and prepared to throw it away later.

"Is that meat sauce in the jar?" He smelled a familiar smell when he held it just now.

Lan Lizhou smiled slightly. "Yes, it was sent from so far away, but we have to eat it quickly. The letter said it can be kept for two months, but it has already been used for a month on the way."

"There's no need to rush. Don't forget that we finished a whole can on the way back. We were very frugal and only used it for more than half a month."

Acai was also very emotional when he said this, and felt that he would never get tired of eating it.

After finishing the meal, it was time to continue doing what needed to be done. Lan Lizhou pressed his brow and continued to check the account book. Ah Cai was waiting on the side, looking more relaxed than his master.

At dinner time, when Lan Lizhou arrived, his mother was already sitting in the main seat.

Ah Cai helped him take off his cloak, and Lan Lizhou sat down next to Lan's mother.

Mother Lan had been feeling unwell before because of her son's disappearance, but now she was relieved and felt much better. She asked with some concern, "Are you tired today?"

In the past two months, most of her shop business has been handed over to Lan Lizhou. There are many things he needs to get in touch with and understand, especially as the Chinese New Year is coming soon and he also has to do the year-end inventory.

"Fortunately, the calculation will be almost complete in two or three days."

The two chatted for a while, and the maid brought the evening meal one by one. In addition to various dishes, there was also a plate of steamed buns and two bowls of thin noodles without any seasoning.

Mother Lan was a little confused. She pointed at the extra things and was about to ask the maid who served the dishes what was going on.

Lan Lizhou explained, "I asked Ah Cai to go to the kitchen to give instructions. I received a letter from the Shen family today. They also sent someone to bring me some food, so I wanted my mother and I to taste it together."

"Is it the Shen family who saved you?" Lan's mother quickly thought of who it was.

Lan Lizhou nodded, "That's right."

"That's really thoughtful of them. Remember to visit more often and keep in touch more often," Lan's mother advised.

She didn't think that giving the 1000 taels had repaid her debt of gratitude, especially when she heard her son say that he wanted to start a cake business together.

From what she had heard, the Shen family were kind-hearted and hardworking, and she admired them very much.

Lan Lizhou agreed, and he would do so even without explanation.

"This bowl contains the meat sauce they sent. Ah Cai and I used it to satisfy our cravings on the way back. It's delicious when dipped in steamed buns or mixed with noodles. Mom, you should try it."

Lan Lizhou brought the bowl full of sauce directly in front of him. In the evening, Acai held the jar of sauce and asked the chef to take out some of it. The rest was carefully put back into his study.

Mother Lan didn't want to spoil the fun. She waved for the servants to leave, rolled up her sleeves, swiftly took a steamed bun, broke it open, scooped some food with a spoon and put it in to flatten it out.

After she took a bite, Lan Lizhou asked expectantly, "How is it?"

"Not bad, it smells good."

Lan's mother actually loves spicy food very much, but later she felt that spicy food would make her mouth swollen, which was not in line with her status, so she restrained herself. Unexpectedly, she would restrain herself for many years, and now when she eats it again, she feels a bit unbridled.

Lan Lizhou was very happy to see his mother enjoying the meal. He actively helped his mother mix the noodles and put them aside before eating them while they were hot.

After the meal, a lot of the chef's dishes were left over, but the two of them ate up all the steamed buns and noodles with the sauce.

Not to mention that the chef was a little panicked when he saw the dishes being taken away, thinking that they were not cooked to his taste.

After leaving the table, Lan Lizhou asked Ah Cai to bring over the other bag of cold rabbit, opened it and put it on the table. The mother and son chatted while enjoying the meal, looking very happy.
