Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

"Yesterday afternoon, the number of people coming to our restaurant to eat dropped sharply. I went out to ask around and found out that the Haoke Restaurant next door also launched a snack similar to Bingshatang."

"I thought they were using this sign to attract customers and didn't pay much attention to it. But Zhang Hong went out and bought some to try, and it tasted exactly like the ones in my store."

"That's why I came to you to see what's going on."

Whenever Xu Xing thought of Wei Xiong showing off to him, he felt so angry that his heart ached. It was not easy for his own guests to surpass Haokelou, but now this happened.

As a result, Xu Xing was so angry that he couldn't sleep the whole night. As soon as it was dawn, he quickly hitched a car and came to ask for an explanation.

After hearing this, Yun Zhenzhen immediately denied it, "It's impossible that there's something wrong with our family. I only supplied this shaved candy to your family. After Zhang Hong took all the goods, our family stopped making candy."

"That's true." Qin Li also echoed behind him: "There are only so many people in our family, and we don't have the energy to support another family."

Yun Zhenzhen thought for a moment, then stood up and sat opposite Xu Xing.

"Manager Xu, there must be some misunderstanding here. Let's discuss it together."

Then he said to Qin Wen behind him, "Ah Wen, go get Shopkeeper Xu a glass of water. He must be thirsty after coming all the way here."

After everyone sat down around the stone table, Yun Zhenzhen spoke again, "Although we are honest farmers, we also know that we must be honest in doing business. We will definitely not do anything that violates the contract."

"Besides, we're already so busy providing for your family, and we've hired help too. How can we have the time to do something so treacherous?"

Zhang Hong stood aside and nodded.

Indeed, every time the family came to get candy, they looked tired, especially the children, who yawned constantly and had blue and purple eyes.

If you still take orders from other companies in this situation, you will probably be wasting your money.

"A helper?" Xu Xing immediately grasped the key point: "Could it be that this helper leaked the recipe?"

Before Yun Zhenzhen could speak, Qin Li spoke up: "Impossible, we didn't let Aunt Zhao know what we were doing, and Aunt Zhao is not that kind of person..."

As Qin Li spoke, his voice gradually became softer. Who can guarantee that one can know a person's heart without knowing his appearance?

Yun Zhenzhen also instinctively knew it couldn't be Aunt Zhao, so she stood up immediately and said, "She's next door. I'll go find her."

Aunt Zhao was a bit harsh in her words, but she had a kind heart and a straightforward personality, especially when it came to taking good care of her own children. Yun Zhenzhen didn't believe that she would do such a thing for money.

Aunt Zhao was busy sewing shoe soles at home. Her own shoes had several holes in them, which hurt her feet, so she had to make a pair of thick soles. After hearing what Yun Zhenzhen said, she immediately put down her needlework, closed the door and went to the next door.

As soon as Aunt Zhao entered the house, she couldn't wait to speak: "I still have some dignity. Not to mention that I have no idea what kind of business Sister Yun is doing, even if I knew, I would never tell anyone about it. I haven't even told my wife what I did in the Yun family these days, so how could I possibly tell others..."

Aunt Zhao started talking as soon as she entered the room, and the people were sweating profusely.

The next second, she saw a wealthy man sitting next to the stone table. She guessed that he was the owner of the business doing business with Yun Meizi, so she walked over and started crying.

"Shopkeeper, I swear, I absolutely did not say anything wrong outside. Please don't stop cooperating with Sister Yun because of this. If that happens, it will be my fault."

Aunt Zhao's eyes began to redden as she spoke, and Yun Zhenzhen hurried over to help her: "Aunt, it's okay, it's good that you didn't tell anyone. We'll investigate further."

Aunt Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

For a moment, the whole yard fell silent.

It's impossible for the Yun family, and Aunt Zhao didn't let it slip. Could it be that they really figured it out on their own?

Suddenly, Qin Wen slapped his thigh and said hesitantly, "Could it be her?"

"Who?" Yun Zhenzhen turned and looked at him.

"Mom, have you forgotten?" Qin Wen recalled, "That day when I went to the old house to borrow a bucket, who did I see at the door?"

"Aunt Fugui!" they both said in unison.

"This bad seed," Aunt Zhao said indignantly, "It's bad enough that she usually makes things difficult for you, an orphan and a widow. Now that life is finally getting better, she comes out to cause trouble again. She doesn't live a good life every day and keeps resorting to these crooked ways."

"It's just a guess..." Qin Wen said, pinching the corner of his clothes.

Xu Xing finally understood and said immediately, "Whether it's true or not, just call her over and ask her."

"Yes, they should still be in the fields at this time. Let's go and take a look." Aunt Zhao nodded quickly.

After saying that, he volunteered to take Manager Xu's two thugs to the fields.

As soon as Aunt Zhao left, the yard became quiet. Xu Xing drank several sips of sweet water and felt much more relieved, but then he looked embarrassed.

After much difficulty, the business finally became prosperous, but now something went wrong. Even if the person who leaked the information was found, this snack is not unique after all.

Is my dream of opening my first restaurant about to be shattered?

"Oh..." Thinking of this, Xu Xing couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Yun Zhenzhen naturally knew what Manager Xu was worried about. She asked Qin Wen to fill the bowl of water in front of him and spoke softly.

"Don't worry, Manager Xu. Even if you don't come today, I will come to see you in two days."

"The raw materials for making shaved candy are about to go out of season. I originally planned to stop making it after this month. Even if someone else learns how to make it, it's not a big deal. You don't need to worry too much."

Xu Xing's face lit up with joy when he heard that, but his happiness didn't last more than three seconds, and he became depressed again.

Others won’t be able to jump around for a few more days, and neither will my family. What a shame.

"Don't worry." Yun Zhenzhen smiled slyly and then asked, "Does your restaurant need any new dishes recently?"

When Xu Xing mentioned this, his expression became even worse. In the past two months, the restaurant chef hadn't come up with any new dishes.

That's why the restaurant business is so bleak. Fortunately, the shaved sugar snacks came out of nowhere and saved the restaurant from the crisis. But now the shaved sugar is almost out of season and I'm having a headache.

Thinking of Yun Zhenzhen's words, his eyes lit up: "I wonder if Madam Yun has any new dishes?"

"That's right." Yun Zhenzhen smiled generously, her eyes clearly black and white, shining with light.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xing leaned forward, supporting himself with his hands on the table, his whole body trembling slightly with excitement.

"Madam Yun, if you tell me, I'm willing to pay a high price for it."

"No rush." ​​Yun Zhenzhen didn't answer directly: "It won't be too late to talk about it slowly after I finish dealing with the current matter."

"Okay." Xu Xing sat back with a smile on his face. He knew that his trip today was right.
