My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

The main vegetables served at Jixiang Restaurant are cold-resistant and easy-to-store vegetables such as cabbage and radish.

Besides the fact that the vegetables were far inferior to those in Ji Yunshuang's space, there were also no fish or shrimp.

I heard that it's because it's too cold in winter and the fishermen haven't caught any fish, so no one is delivering fish today and the restaurant isn't selling fish.

After asking around, Ji Yunshuang discovered that dishes made with wild game such as roe deer and wild boar were considered high-end at the restaurant.

Aside from wild game, beef and mutton are considered second-class meats, while pork is ranked last.

To be honest, these dishes are not as good as the lavish meal she could cook in her space.

Since she was already there, Ji Yunshuang wanted to see the quality of restaurants in this era, so she ordered more than ten dishes, practically all of the restaurant's specialties.

Although I was disappointed with the food at the restaurant when I ordered.

But when the dishes were served, Ji Yunshuang was quite satisfied. Wild game like roe deer meat usually has a strong gamey smell, but the chef had handled it well; there was none at all. He certainly had some skill.

However, Lu Xumu and the others said that it was far inferior to the dishes made by Ji Yunshuang. Any dish Ji Yunshuang made was better than those served in restaurants.

Lu Zilin added, "If my sister-in-law opened a restaurant in the city, all these restaurants would have to go out of business!"

Lu Xumu nodded in agreement, saying that any dish Ji Yunshuang made could be considered a signature dish of the restaurant.

Ji Yunshuang had considered opening a restaurant, but she couldn't be the head chef there; training chefs would be too much trouble.

She glanced at the two of them and said, "Are you interested? How about we open one in the inner city sometime and you run it?"

The two brothers were stunned, not expecting Ji Yunshuang to suddenly say this.

Lu Xumu was somewhat agitated, but he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No... I can't do it. Sister-in-law, I can't do it."

Lu Zilin also waved his hand, saying he couldn't.

Ji Yunshuang thought the two of them were alright.

Aside from the initial stages of opening, she didn't manage Sweet Fragrance Shop much. Besides Zhu Dong'e's loyalty, the contributions of the two brothers were also indispensable.

Ji Yunshuang said, "If you're worried about not being able to run it at first, we can open a braised food shop first. You can help me run it, and I'll pay you your wages."

Making braised food is much simpler than opening a restaurant, and this era is truly a culinary wasteland.

Braised food, a delicacy that is irresistible even in modern times, would surely have carved out a niche for itself in ancient times as well.

When the two brothers heard that they were helping her, they no longer refused, saying that they didn't want any wages, as they were all family and it was only right for them to help her.

However, these things are not convenient to discuss outside. We'll have to wait until we get home to talk about the specifics.

Ji Yunshuang didn't say anything more.

As the group was eating, a waiter from the restaurant suddenly brought a bowl of white fungus soup to Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang glanced at the white fungus soup and said, "We didn't order white fungus soup."

The waiter said, "This was a gift from our boss. He said that our distinguished guest ordered a lot of dishes today, so he specially sent a bowl of white fungus soup to nourish and beautify the skin."

Ji Yunshuang shook the spoon in the bowl and said calmly, "Am I the only one?"

"The white fungus soup is a special treat for our distinguished guests," the waiter said. "The owner also serves food to the other guests at the table. Although it's not the beauty-enhancing white fungus soup, it's still a rare treat. Please wait a moment."

He went back to the kitchen and quickly brought out several bowls of hibiscus sweet soup.

Lu Xumu exclaimed, "This grand restaurant is truly different; they're so courteous."

As he spoke, he picked up the bowl to drink, but Ji Yunshuang stopped him.

"what happened?"

Lu Xumu was puzzled, but the waiter's brow twitched, and he was about to break out in a cold sweat.

He forced himself to remain calm and said in a nonchalant tone, "Honored guest, is there something amiss?"

Ji Yunshuang stirred the egg drop soup in Lu Xumu's bowl with a spoon, and then looked at the egg drop soup of the others.

After confirming that everything else was fine and only her own white fungus soup was the problem, she picked up the bowl, looked at the waiter, and asked, "Was this your own idea, or your boss's idea?"

The Lu brothers, Xu Mu and Xu Mu, also realized that there was indeed something wrong with their sister-in-law's soup. Both glared at the waiter with murderous intent, wishing they could tear him to pieces.

The waiter tried to play dumb, saying, "Honored guest, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."

"Since you won't tell me, then I'll declare it. I want the officials to judge for me and see what your Jixianglou restaurant is thinking, adding medicine to customers' soup and dishes. Let's see who dares to eat at your restaurant in the future."

The waiter nearly knelt down. How did she know there was medicine in the bowl? Wasn't it said that the medicine was colorless and odorless, and that no one would ever notice?

How could she know there was medicine in it just by stirring it a couple of times when so many of them didn't notice?

The waiter, steeling himself, decided to get up and knock over the white fungus soup in Ji Yunshuang's bowl. But with his skills, how could he possibly be a match for Ji Yunshuang? The moment he made a move, Ji Yunshuang kicked him to the ground, rendering him unable to move.

"I'm going to report this to the authorities! You help your sister-in-law and take care of your nephew and niece." After instructing her younger brother, Lu Xumu got up and went outside.

However, before he could even leave the private room, the innkeeper arrived with his men and blocked him at the door.

"What are you doing?" Lu Xumu shouted, "A black market shop, are you trying to use drugs to make money and kill people?"

His voice was extremely loud; although he was in a private room, it still carried. Guests in the adjacent private rooms opened their doors and peeked out.

And then there were those who, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, went right up to the entrance of the private room to watch.

The innkeeper watched as so many people gathered around the private room to watch the spectacle, his back soaked with cold sweat.

He never expected things to be so complicated.

Even if you have a thousand regrets, you have to stay calm and resolve the issue first.

"Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings!"

He said, "This bowl of white fungus soup in your bowl has been served to all the private rooms that ordered more dishes today, in addition to the guests in your room."

How could there be a problem? They all ate it and there was nothing wrong. Could our distinguished guest be someone sent by another restaurant to deliberately cause trouble for Jixianglou?

His words aroused doubt among many onlookers.

Those customers who also drank the complimentary white fungus soup from the restaurant suspected that Ji Yunshuang was deliberately causing trouble.

Ji Yunshuang sneered, "Then don't block the gate. Let us report to the authorities and let them investigate."

If I were to maliciously put poison in the white fungus soup to harm you, I would be punished by the authorities. The fact that you're blocking the door and preventing us from reporting this to the authorities shows you're guilty.

After hearing what Ji Yunshuang said, the onlookers felt that what she said made sense.

Logically speaking, if these people came to cause trouble and frame Jixianglou...

Shouldn't Jixianglou prefer to report this to the authorities and restore its reputation? Why is the restaurant now afraid of being reported to the authorities?
