The man she imprisoned was a white-skinned
Chapter 61: Naturally, I came to care about my junior brother
When Boyang arrived, it was already midnight. Business was booming today, and Zuixianju's reputation was also well-known in Yangzhou. Although it was a bit busy, the harvest was quite fruitful, and everyone in Zuixianju had a happy smile on their face.
"Boss, I'm so tired today." Jialang said as he collapsed in his chair.
For such a big restaurant, the backbone is still just a few of them. Today, they were almost too busy to handle it, as customers kept asking for food.
"Don't worry, we just arrived in Yangzhou and are not familiar with it. It will be fine in the future. Besides, we have discounts today as we opened the store, so naturally there will be more customers." Yan Liujing blinked and comforted Jialang.
They had to go back to Bianjing, and they were only staying in Yangzhou temporarily. Yan Liujing told this to Jiang Tongpan, who arranged it overnight.
Today, Zuixianju’s reputation has spread throughout Yangzhou, attracting many chefs to come here, and Zuixianju’s kitchen has absorbed a wave of fresh blood.
After a busy day, everyone was cleaning up Zuixianju. Boyang from Yuejiang Tower came unexpectedly, and the peace was broken.
"Boss, give us one serving of Yangzhou's Three Wonders." Bo Yang ordered them in a cold voice as soon as he entered the door.
Meng Xuanhe frowned when he saw the person coming. Because Boyang came directly from Yuejiang Tower and was wearing Yuejiang Tower's clothes, Meng Xuanhe immediately recognized that he was from Yuejiang Tower.
"I'm sorry, sir, it's already midnight and our store is closed." Meng Xuanhe said politely.
"Boss, you don't look like people from Yangzhou. The principle of respecting guests is what Mr. Bo has always advocated. If you can't abide by the rules of Yangzhou City, you might as well go home and don't even think about getting a share of the pie in Yangzhou City, where there are so many famous chefs."
It was obvious that Boyang was here to cause trouble, and Meng Xuanhe didn't intend to pay any more attention to him.
Before coming to Yangzhou, Meng Xuanhe knew that there would be some friction with Yuejiang Tower. But now Boyang was being so unreasonable, which made Meng Xuanhe impatient.
Yan Liujing had a carefree personality, so how could he tolerate such picking on someone? He put down the bowl in his hand and was ready to challenge Boyang to a duel.
Meng Xuanhe reached out and pushed Yan Liujing back, and winked at her. In any case, Boyang had a lot of connections in Yangzhou.
His father is the world-famous chef Bo Fengran. Their business has only been in business for one day, and if they offend Bo Yang, it will be a big trouble.
At Meng Xuanhe's suggestion, Jiarun, Jialang and Yan Liujing chose to ignore Boyang.
Boyang was a little angry. This was the first time he was treated so coldly in Yangzhou. He snorted contemptuously and shook his sleeves to leave.
It happened that Song He and Yu Liu heard the noise in the restaurant and came out from the kitchen.
"Boss, what happened?" Song He wiped his hands and asked.
When Boyang heard this extremely familiar voice, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Song He and Yu Liu.
His originally angry face suddenly showed a hint of mockery and disdain, and he said sinisterly: "Oh, I thought this newly opened Zuixianju had something special, but it turns out to be the thief who was kicked out of Yuejiang Tower back then."
As soon as Boyang started to speak sarcastically, the waiter from Yuejiang Tower who came with him also recognized Song He and Yu Liu.
"Boyang? What are you doing here?" Seeing Boyang, Song Heyuliu's heart was filled with alarm.
This was not only the first confrontation between Yuejiang Tower and Zuixianju, but also a reunion of two fellow disciples.
"Of course I came to care about my junior brother." Bo Yang said with a sneer, getting closer and closer to Song He until he whispered in his ear: "It seems that my junior brother has forgotten that he betrayed the master. But it doesn't matter, senior brother will help the people of Yangzhou remember it."
"I have never done that kind of thing, please don't slander me." Song He's right hand had already clenched into a fist.
Meng Xuanhe saw all of Song He's actions, patted him on the shoulder calmly, and signaled Song He to calm down first.
After Boyang finished speaking, he turned and left. Song He and Yu Liu both looked a little uneasy.
"Boss, within a day, Zuixianju's business will plummet." Yu Liu said dejectedly.
Song He and Yu Liu were all grateful for Madam Wei's kindness to them. But Bo Yang's words made them think of the past.
Not long after Mr. Bo passed away, Boyang spread the news.
After that, they were driven out of Yuejianglou, and no restaurant was willing to hire them. In desperation, Song He and Yu Liucai left their hometown and went to Bianjing.
Boyang will definitely not let it go when he sees them coming back. Once this matter is brought up again, Zuixianju will become the target of public criticism.
There was worry in Song He's eyes, and Yan Liujing also turned his gaze to Meng Xuanhe.
"So, it was you who really leaked the recipe of Yangzhou's Three Wonders?" Meng Xuanhe said calmly, without any emotion on his face.
"No, I'm an orphan adopted by my master. Even if I have to go through fire and water, I will never do such a thing." Song He clenched his fists and said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Meng Xuanhe suddenly smiled brightly, and a reassuring look suddenly appeared on his ordinary face.
"Since you didn't do it, what are you afraid of?" Meng Xuanhe smiled gently, as if she didn't take it to heart.
After comforting Song He and Yu Liu, everyone returned to the inn to rest. However, Jiarun followed Meng Xuanhe and seemed to have something to say.
"Madam Wei, although Jiarun understands your good intentions. But if we force them to stay, Zuixianju will become the target of public criticism." Jiarun thought about it and said it out loud.
"It's okay." Since Song He was innocent, there was nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, Song He was so similar to her that she couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
Jiarun wanted to persuade Meng Xuanhe, but Meng Xuanhe waved his hand. He had no choice but to take back his words and stop bothering Meng Xuanhe.
In the inn, many people had another sleepless night.
The next morning, the old news about Song He and Yu Liu spread like wildfire in Yangzhou. In an instant, Zuixianju went from being a prosperous restaurant to a target of public condemnation.
Meng Xuanhe still underestimated Mr. Bo's status in Yangzhou City, and had no business for several days.
"I was wondering why the Yangzhou Three Specialties tasted so good that day. It turns out that the traitor is back."
"How dare the person who leaked Mr. Bo's recipe return to Yangzhou? How shameless!"
"I heard that Mr. Bo not only adopted him, but also treated him as his own son and taught him the skill of cooking. He actually leaked the recipe for profit, and now he wants to use Mr. Bo's three specialties to make money."
In front of Zuixianju, many people pointed and talked. Some even threw eggs and vegetable leaves at Zuixianju, vowing to drive Song He out of Yangzhou again.
"Boss, I'd better leave." Song Hechu had no fighting spirit when he returned to Yangzhou.
He fled Yangzhou like a stray dog, but he didn't expect to have the same ending when he came back this time. He really didn't want to drag down Madam Wei.
Meng Xuanhe was just about to speak to comfort him when Boyang's voice suddenly came from the door of Zuixianju.
"Boss, you are not from Yangzhou and you know nothing about Yangzhou. We are all businessmen, so why don't you kick this traitor out of the restaurant today? I believe everyone will patronize Zuixianju again." Boyang said "kindly".
His words were like a sharp sword piercing Song He's heart. The shopkeeper had done him and Yu Liu a favor. He couldn't just repay kindness with enmity and bring down Zuixianju.
Upon hearing this, Yu Liu stood in front of the door and confronted Bo Yang: "Song He is not a thief. He was not the one who leaked the Three Wonders of Yangzhou."
They have explained this countless times, but unfortunately no one has ever believed it.
There was a hint of coldness in Meng Xuanhe's calm eyes. Boyang came to Zuixianju so aggressively, and the rumors had forced them into a desperate situation.
But has he ever thought that there is a term in this world called hitting rock bottom and fighting back?
