Pangui Hall.

Looking at the table full of exquisite dishes, First Madam Qin lowered her eyes to hide the mockery in them. After only two mouthfuls of pickled cucumbers, she got the servants to remove the dishes.

“She sure knows how to put on a show.” Nanny Wu couldn’t help but mock, “The dishes on the table are all greasy and heavy flavored, but they’re also extremely exquisite. If Madam shows any disgust, I’m afraid there will be a lot of rumors.”

“Mistress, what do you want to eat? I’ll go to the kitchen to make it myself.” Nanny Wu thought for a moment and asked with concern.

“Nanny, don’t worry. I really don’t have much of an appetite.” First Madam Qin chuckled. “Madam Liu is still too anxious.”

“Then what’s Master’s plan?”

‘What’s the hurry?” First Madam Qin smiled indifferently. “I’m not in a hurry to fight with her for power. Let’s see if she can be the matriarch of this manor.

We’ll discuss the matters after Minghong’s birthday banquet.”

“Mistress, you’re not in a hurry, but that person from the Ruyi Pavilion will likely be suffering for a period of time.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

When Qin Minghong rushed over with the food box, First Madam Qin was sitting at the desk copying Buddhist scriptures.

Ever since Qin Sheng disappeared, First Madam Qin had developed the habit of copying Buddhist scriptures at dawn and dusk.

She hoped that her sincerity could move Bodhisattva and bless Qin Sheng’s early return.

“Aunt.” Qin Minghong bowed respectfully.

‘Where did Minghung come from?”

“I heard that Aunt has lost her appetite recently, so I went to see a good friend and asked her to make two dishes for Aunt,” Qin Minghong explained with a gentle smile. Then, he said to Nanny Wu, “Nanny, please go to the kitchen and get two bowls of porridge.”

“Okay.”

Seeing how excited he was, First Madam Qin was unwilling to let him down.

However, when Qin Minghong took out the two cold dishes from the food box,

First Madam Qin was a little curious.

“These two dishes seem to be cold dishes?”

“Yes.” Qin Minghong immediately nodded. “Aunt, you must try this cold beef. It’s extremely delicious. Moreover, my good friend’s culinary skills are not inferior to famous chefs. In short, you’ll know once you try it.”

A moment later, First Madam Qin put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hand reluctantly.

“The taste of these two dishes is indeed not bad,” First Madam Qin praised with a smile. “This cold beef has a rich sauce fragrance. After entering your mouth, the aftertaste is salty and fragrant, and there’s also a hint of spiciness. ‘ “If Aunt likes it, I’ll go and buy this recipe for cold beef from Ah Tao.”

“Ah Tao?” First Madam Qin was a little surprised. “Could the Miss Ah Tao that

Minghong mentioned be surnamed Ji? Is her husband’s surname Shen?’

“That’s right.” Qin Minghong seemed to have suddenly thought of something and explained with a smile, “Look at my memory. Ah Tao said that she had met you once!’

“We’ve indeed met once.” First Madam Qin smiled. “I didn’t expect Miss Ah Tao to be good not only at pastries, but also at making snowflake cakes.”

Qin Minghong smiled and nodded. “Ah Tao’s culinary skills are indeed superb.”

“From your tone, you seem to be very familiar with Miss Ji?” First Madam Qin raised her eyebrows slightly, and a trace of worry appeared in her eyes. “But isn’t Miss Ji already married?’

“I won’t hide it from you, Aunt. Actually, I once had feelings for Ah Tao, but unfortunately, the beauty already has someone in her heart! ” Qin Minghong laughed self-deprecatingly and explained the process of him getting to know Ji Zhao’s family.

An hour later, First Madam Qin became even more interested in Ji Zhao.

“In that case, the reason why Hongxing Restaurant’s business could become so popular is because of Miss Ji?”

“You can say that.” Qin Minghong nodded solemnly. “Ah Tao is extremely good. Her husband, Shen Yao, is also a gentleman with both virtue and talent. In short, the couple are both extremely good people. I feel that they are people worth befriending. When there’s a chance in the future, I will invite them to the residence as guests. At that time, I must let Aunt meet them properly.” “Minghong, you know the status of our Qin family in the prefecture capital. There are many benefits in the world. That’s why I’m a little surprised that you and Ah Tao are very close. However, since you think they’re trustworthy friends, Aunt naturally won’t say anything. However, friends should help each other.’

“Aunt, you mean…?”

“Back then, before I married into the Qin Residence, I was indebted to Immortal Crane. Later on, under the arrangement of my parents, I acknowledged him as my foster brother. However, not many people knew about this. Moreover, Immortal Crane has never come to look for me all these years. However, a few days ago, he brought Miss Ji to see me.” Eldest Madam Qin smiled and explained, “Someone used the Qin family’s power to bully your friend.”

‘What the hell is going on?’

After First Madam Qin explained the entire matter concisely, Qin Minghong only felt that the anger in his heart could not dissipate!

“Lu Hongshan is so vicious! ”

“Only our Qin Residence has the formula for the Fragrant Beauty. I believe you know very well who gave out the poison in Lu Hongshan’s hands.” First Madam Qin explained in a low voice, “All these years, your good stepmother has tried to control everything in the Qin family, but I couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. Also, you should know why I insisted on holding a birthday banquet for you this time.”

How could Qin Minghong not know? Firstly, he was already 23 years old. Other young masters of this age already had children who could walk.

Secondly , Aunt was giving Madam Liu a chance.

If Madam Liu dared to do anything to his birthday banquet, Eldest Aunt would definitely not let her off.

“Ever since your uncle disappeared, I’ve been too lazy to manage the household. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been lazing around for so many years.” First Madam Qin couldn’t help but chuckle. “But now, I can’t just watch Madam Liu destroy our Qin family’s reputation without restraint. I don’t want to go to the netherworld and be too ashamed to face your uncle.”

“Aunt, don’t think that way.” Upon hearing this, Qin Minghong’s eyes instantly turned red. “Heaven will bless the good. I believe that Uncle must still be alive!”

“I hope so.”

Ruyi Pavilion.

When Madam Liu heard that Qin Minghong had rushed to Pangui Hall with the food box, she was furious.

“He;s indeed an ingrate who can’t be raised well. He can’t even tell who he should be close with!”

“Madam, why are you angry over someone unrelated? What if your health is affected?” The nanny behind Madam Liu hurriedly comforted her. “It doesn’t matter even if Eldest Young Master is close to the person at Pangui Hall. He’s just a lowly merchant. He’s not like our Second Young Master. Didn’t the teacher often praise our Second Young Master for being extremely good at studying?”

At the mention of her biological son, the anger in Madam Liu’s heart immediately dissipated. “That’s true. Compared to that ingrate, our Brother Yao is more important.. Oh right, is Brother Yao back today? Why hasn’t he come to see me yet?”
