Chapter 28 His Daughter-in-law

  Chapter 28 His Daughter-in-law

  "Is that so? I don't know if it can still be used." Su Xiaofan spoke as she walked towards the stove, and if there was a stove, then she would make roasted duck for them for the first time, after all, they had also thought of making it themselves before.

  "It's usable, after all, it hasn't been used much since it was built." Ji Yun hastened ahead of her, walked to the other side, and took off the apron from his waist, brushing off the dust attached to it.

  "Well, in that case, I'll teach you how to make roast duck then." Su Xiao Fan lifted his sleeve to block the dust flying everywhere from his waving hands and walked over to where the ingredients were piled up, starting to pick out what he needed.

  Ji Yun carefully cleaned up the flying dust before walking towards Su Xiao Fan with a smile: "Alright, if the boss agrees..."

  "Don't worry, I'll make it now and have him try it. Once he agrees, we can finalize the order. After all, we do need to get paid."

  "It's all right then." Ji Yun finally felt at ease, after all, since the last time, Boss had a knot in his heart, and that time was spent money, but didn't make any money.

  "Is there anything I can help with?" Su Bing took over the basket from Su Xiaofan's hands.

  "Go catch a live duck, to be killed on the spot." Su Xiaofan stood in front of the seasonings, still needing to configure a special barbecue sauce.

  Su Bing put down the basket and went to the backyard.

  Su Xiaofan followed him out and carefully instructed him on the precautions for killing ducks and scalding hair.

  "Who knew killing ducks could be so particular?" Su Bing nodded, replaying in his mind what Su Xiaofan had said, making sure he remembered everything before walking away.

  After finishing the handover, Su Xiaofan walked into the kitchen and started making barbecue sauce.

  Ji Yun stood beside her, watching her unique production process, and would occasionally ask about things she didn't understand.

  Su Xiaofan answered one by one, and at the same time told him that he would only say it once, if he couldn't remember, then next time he wouldn't care.

  Ji Yun listened and raised his spirit to 120%, concentrating his mind to observe Su Xiaofan's every move.

  While they were finishing up the roast sauce, Su Bing also walked in with a plump and smooth duck.

  Su Xiaofan patted it flat on the chopping board, started to clean the duck, pumped out the air, scooped out the internal organs, and after washing it clean, handed it over to Ji Yun to hang the shiny duck into the oven.

  Three minutes later, the whole kitchen was filled with fragrance, and many young apprentices couldn't help but stick out their tongues to lick their mouths, almost drooling.

  Ji Yun stared blankly at the knife in her hand, which was moving nimbly and effortlessly. With a few swings, it sliced the originally steaming roasted duck into thin pieces, placing them on two plates, along with the sauce and seasonings she had prepared earlier.

  Su Xiaofan busied herself after finishing, put down the knife in her hand, and smiled as she patted her hands.

  Glancing around at the people salivating with envy, he smiled apologetically: "Sorry guys, this one's not for you today, heh heh."

  "Shopkeeper, take this dish up for the boss to try. If it's okay, then bring down the silver ticket and my friend as well." Su Xiaofan handed one of the bowls to Deng Neng.

  "All right, Miss Su, wait for a moment." Deng Nai endured the almost lethal fragrance that came from the plate in front of him and quickly walked upstairs to the elegant room.

  As he walked through the hall and corridor, several customers who had just entered the restaurant asked him about the dishes in his hand, wanting to order. Deng Nai smiled and explained that they would be on sale starting tomorrow, as these were new dishes that had just been introduced today.

  Yu Xiaoxi had just walked into the kitchen when she started excitedly asking: "Xiao Fan, what did you make today? It smells so good!"

  "Ah, roasted duck." Su Xiao Fan turned around, picked up the other plate that was left earlier and put it in front of Xiao Yi Mo, softly saying: "Little treasure, are you hungry? Come eat, sister saved some for you."

  Xiao Yimò took the chopsticks from Su Xiaofan's hand, picked up a piece and ate it, then quickly devoured all the meat slices on the plate. After finishing, he licked his lips with an aftertaste, saying: "You're not my sister, you're my wife."

  "Alright." Su Xiao Fan smiled and took back the chopsticks in his hand, also taking the opportunity to wipe the greasy corner of his mouth.

  "His wife?" Ji Yun and the others were shocked upon hearing this, although they had all speculated about the relationship between her and the little boy by her side, but no one had expected that the little child would say that she was his wife.

  "Ah, I'm currently their adopted daughter-in-law." Su Xiao Fan smiled calmly, completely ignoring the surprised gazes of the people in the house.

  "Just then, after sniffing slightly a few times, he exclaimed in surprise: 'Is there a smoky smell?'"

  At these words, a chef's flustered shout immediately rang out: "Ah, it's burnt! It's burnt!"

  "Hmph!" Xiao Yi Mo's dark eyes flashed with a hint of amusement, "Surprised? You know you were wrong, don't you?"

  "You little devil, didn't even leave me any." Yu Xiaoxi was originally waiting on the side, planning to try a piece after he finished eating. After all, that aroma was really tempting.

  I didn't expect him to just wolf down and directly finish it off like that.

  Xiao Yi Mo's eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as he raised an eyebrow at Yu Xiao Xi, his gaze seeming to say: "I was meant to eat this alone, there wasn't any share for you in the first place."

  "Alright, Xiao Xi, I'll make it for you again sometime." Su Xiaofan said softly, seeing that Yu Xiaoxi seemed to be getting angry again.

  "Alright." Yu Xiao Xi smiled faintly, wondering why she always ended up wanting to compete with that little brat.

  A moment later, Deng Nai walked in with the two-hundred-tael silver note, smiling at Su Xiaofan and saying: "The boss is very satisfied, he said that in a few days if Miss Su has time, she can come to the building again for another discussion."

  Su Xiaofan did not take the silver note, but instead thought for a moment and said: "Shopkeeper, can you help me exchange these for loose silver?"

  "Alright, I'll go exchange it at the counter." Deng Nai didn't understand, as most people would prefer silver notes for their convenience and portability, yet he still held onto the silver note as he exited the kitchen.

  "Xiao Fan, what's going on with the silver coins?" Yu Xiaoxi was also puzzled.

  "It's getting late, I won't go shopping today. After going back, I'll return the money to Second Uncle and Third Uncle's families, and also repay some other people's silver. We should also keep some for Mother to buy supplements during her confinement." Su Xiaofan also felt that the food at home might not be enough, after all, she had heard that one meal required cooking four or five eggs, which was far from enough for a month.

  "You don't have to rush to pay them back either, after all, you've already owed it for so long." Yu Xiaoxi didn't understand why she was suddenly in such a hurry, as she had never asked about the family's financial matters before.
