In a year of natural disasters, the young woman had billions of resources to build a paradise.
Chapter 27 Gluttonous and Black-Hearted
"I-I didn't."
Jiang Ranran shook her head repeatedly, tears streaming down her face.
Lin Xianghe felt much better, but seeing her like this only made her angrier.
She stood up and started cursing, "Don't think that just because Doctor Jiang saved me, you can get away with it! He didn't take any money, so he's not practicing medicine illegally! It's clear that the doctor is kind-hearted and couldn't bear to watch me die here! But what about you? You made poisonous porridge and sold it, and you don't even dare to admit it!"
At this point, she suddenly realized, "So you were always the troublemaker, always making your sister clean up your messes! Burning the kitchen stove, selling poisoned porridge, and today your sister risked her life to administer the medicine for me, all for you! And you still betrayed her like this!"
With a mouth substitute, Jiang Mianmian quietly leaned back.
This woman seems to be quite capable in combat. Even if I don't get any money, I won't lose out!
Jiang Ranran started crying again, repeating the same phrase over and over: "Waaah, I didn't, I really didn't."
When it came to Ruyilou's reputation, Manager Wu stepped in front of her.
"We've come full circle, haven't we? You said you were like that because you drank the porridge, but why are other people fine after drinking it? Did you eat something else that caused this misunderstanding? Now that everything's alright, you should go home and rest early."
"Don't even think about it! If you don't pay me twenty taels of silver today, I'm not leaving!"
Lin Xianghe sat on the ground and started throwing a tantrum, opening her mouth to sing:
"I'm starving, and the aroma of congee from the restaurant is so enticing."
He picked up the bowl of porridge and tilted his head back, almost dying and meeting the King of Hell.
Intending to savor the delicious food, I never expected it to be poisoned and nearly cost me my life;
Fortunately, a miraculous doctor performed a miracle, saving my life and making me famous.
"Pah! Pah! Pah! You wicked cook from a shady shop!"
Manager Wu scratched his head anxiously, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Don't talk nonsense!"
He stepped forward to stop him.
The woman suddenly stood on the table. "I advise the shopkeeper not to be foolish! Compensating for the losses is not only unreasonable, but also unacceptable! Quickly get rid of that poisonous cook, lest your reputation be ruined!"
"it is good!!"
After the song ended, everyone cheered.
Jiang Mianmian even had the idea of trying to win this woman over.
Anyway, she might not survive even if she fled east, so she might as well come back to the cave with me and enjoy a life of luxury.
Most of those young ladies were gentle and weak, but Seventh Sister was quite feisty, with a fierce and proud spirit.
This woman clearly came from the streets and alleys; she was good at reading people, knew how to speak, and, more importantly, was shameless, intelligent, and knew how to be grateful.
If I'm not mistaken, she just doubled the compensation money, and the extra was meant for herself.
The rain outside was pouring down relentlessly.
Lin Xianghe also enhanced the atmosphere inside the room to the extreme.
Shopkeeper Wu had no choice but to bow to Jiang Mianmian when he saw that she was about to sing again. "Miss Jiang, please put in a good word for me and stop her from singing, since we are old acquaintances."
Business has already been disrupted; if they keep singing like this, the restaurant will have to close down!
Things always need to be resolved. Jiang Mianmian waved to Lin Xianghe, "Sister Xianghe, the shopkeeper has agreed to compensate you."
"Okay!"
Lin Xianghe sat down directly on the table. "Give it to me, twenty taels!"
"me……"
Shopkeeper Wu's inner thoughts: I didn't! I didn't say that! I won't compensate!
However, instead of saying no, he was much more tactful, saying, "It's not that I don't want to lose money, but we need to get to the bottom of this, right?"
Lin Xianghe refused to budge, "I've only had porridge here, so what's wrong with your porridge?"
Jiang Ranran said softly, "Whether it's poison or an illness, you should know best, right, sister?"
"You're the one who's sick! I'm perfectly fine!"
Lin Xianghe stared at her, feeling a little uneasy herself.
Actually, what Manager Wu said made some sense. Why were the others fine? Could it be that she had some hidden illness? But to survive, she had to get her hands on that money!
"Is there any unsold porridge? Let me see it, and also the bowl that Sister Xianghe used earlier."
Jiang Mianmian also wanted to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
It was getting dark outside, and she needed to act quickly.
Manager Wu hurriedly ordered someone to bring over the wooden bucket used for holding porridge, and also brought over clean bowls and spoons, as well as the used bowl.
The white rice porridge was mixed with minced fish and whole shrimp.
Jiang Mianmian tested it again with a silver needle, "It's definitely not poisonous."
Manager Wu breathed a sigh of relief, "Look..."
"Impossible!" Lin Xianghe exclaimed anxiously.
"but!"
Jiang Mianmian interrupted them, "Fish and shrimp are common allergens. Everyone's constitution is different. Some people will develop rashes or have difficulty breathing after eating them. Xianghe's case is quite serious."
Everyone could understand this explanation; it turned out there was no poison in the porridge!
It's not like I was already sick; is this an allergy? Then wouldn't you consider this an accident?
Shopkeeper Wu wiped the cold sweat that had reappeared on his forehead and looked at Jiang Mianmian with a reproach.
She's breathing heavily when she speaks; is she doing it on purpose?
Jiang Ranran's mind raced, and she feigned concern, "Auntie, this must be more than the first time you've eaten fish and shrimp, right? Since your allergy is so severe, you should be more careful. The fish and shrimp in our porridge are very obvious. You really don't take your health seriously."
In a single sentence, the responsibility was shifted onto Lin Xianghe.
Others chimed in, criticizing, "That's right, knowing he shouldn't eat it, he still ate it, almost losing his life, and then he wrongly accused the girl and the restaurant."
"Asking for so much money from others, they're both greedy and greedy!"
Lin Xianghe's cheeks flushed from what she was being told.
She quickly retorted, "I've eaten fish and shrimp before without any problems! Who knew I couldn't eat what this young cook made?"
Everyone was slightly surprised; it wasn't an allergy to fish and shrimp after all?
In a flash, Jiang Mianmian understood.
This porridge contains her homemade Eight Treasures Powder!
The powder contains several kinds of mushrooms. They won't cause allergies when used alone, but they can easily cause allergies when combined with fish and shrimp. That's why she never used to put Eight Treasures Powder in seafood dishes!
She understood the situation and looked at Jiang Ranran, "It's fine if you use my things, but if someone dies, can you afford to pay for it?"
Everyone was confused. Manager Wu looked at the two men and asked, "What's going on?"
"Sister, sister, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Jiang Ranran's heart jumped, but she instantly realized that the problem lay with the Eight Treasures Powder!
The Eight Treasures Powder she used was made by Jiang Mianmian. If Manager Wu found out, how could she continue working at the restaurant? She wanted to get the recipe so that it would be completely hers!
I wanted to shift the blame to that woman, but now what should I do?
She bit her lip, hardened her heart, and cried, "Sister, even if you're short of money, you can't team up with that aunt to extort money, can you?"
