After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 44 The Secret Recipe is Lost
Xie protected Ye Jin and immediately regretted pushing Xiao Xuetang. She said anxiously, "Tangtang must be hurt. Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look..."
Xiao Xuetang indifferently avoided the hand that Xie extended.
Bi Hen couldn't help but said, "Madam, you've already pushed it, why bother pretending to be nice?"
Then Xie stammered for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence, and her eyes turned red in anxiety.
Zhu Ying said angrily, "How dare you, you bold servant, to contradict your master."
As he said this, he raised his hand to slap Bihen, but was stopped by someone!
"This is my Litangju, it's not your turn to point fingers here."
After Xiao Xuetang finished speaking, he slapped Zhu Ying in the face.
The slap was not light. Zhuying's face instantly became red and swollen. With red eyes, she complained to Mrs. Xie: "Madam, look at this young lady..."
But at this moment, Xie's face turned pale and she looked a little distraught.
Is it because of guilt?
No, her instinctive reaction to protect Ye Jin just now was not fake. Between Xiao Xuetang and Ye Jin, Xie obviously treated Ye Jin as her own daughter.
"Mother, do you have any other advice?"
Xiao Xuetang concealed the complexity in his eyes and asked in a calm voice.
She didn't make a fuss, but the calmer her reaction was, the more uneasy Xie felt.
She did not mention the conflict between Xiao Xuetang and Ye Jin, but said, "Your father will leave court early today, so let's have dinner together in the evening."
Xiao Xuetang thought about it and realized that today's dinner was not simple, but he still agreed and said, "Okay."
Seeing that Xiao Xuetang's expression had returned to its usual calm and gentle state, without the intimidating chill from just now, Xie thought to herself that what had just happened was just a small accident.
Tangtang has always been sensible and filial, so she probably... won't mind.
Thinking of this, Xie was relieved and continued, "Your father was angry yesterday and didn't mean to punish you. You didn't eat much last night, so I personally cooked osmanthus cake for you to eat to fill your stomach."
Xie opened the food box. The exquisite snacks exuded a sweet smell, which was too much and made people feel uncomfortable...
After five years of separation, Xie almost forgot what the child liked. She only vaguely remembered that the child seemed to... like sweets!
So she went into the kitchen early this morning and made sweet-scented osmanthus cake and sent it to Litangju, also wanting the mother and daughter to be closer.
In Xie's imagination, this should have been an extremely warm morning, but it seemed... she messed it up.
She had a slight headache, as if her headache had come back.
Seeing the osmanthus cake handed over by Xie, Bi Hen couldn't help but wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xiao Xuetang's eyes.
"Thank you, mother."
Xiao Xuetang accepted the osmanthus cake with great courtesy and without any resentment.
But the more Xie faced such a calm Xiao Xuetang, the more powerless she felt.
She seemed to want to say something, and Zhuying said, "Madam, there are still some things missing at Zhuijinxuan, would you like to go and take a look?"
Xie hesitated for a while, then heard Xiao Xuetang say, "Yes, mother, it was father who personally ordered Sister Jin to move to Zhuijinxuan. If anything goes wrong, it would be a loss of face for our mansion, and father would be angry too."
Upon hearing this, Xie did not delay and took Ye Jin to Zhuijinxuan.
After Xie left, Xiao Xuetang stared at the plate of osmanthus cake in a trance. Bihen couldn't help pouting and snorting, "Miss, when you were seven years old, you were stung by a bee because you stole osmanthus honey. Your face was swollen like a pig's head for more than half a month, and you were laughed at by your cousins for a long time. From then on, you swore that you would never eat anything related to osmanthus again. Why didn't you explain it to Madam?"
Xiao Xuetang said nonchalantly: "It's just a small matter, why waste your breath on it."
Start with small things, accumulate bit by bit, and when you have accumulated enough, you will be disappointed.
Just like Xiao Xuetang in his previous life, he would be very confused as to why Xie remembered his brother and even Ye Jin. They did not like to eat onions and ginger during meals, so he would ask the servants to pick out the onions and ginger from the meals.
But she didn't like eating fish and would feel nauseous at the smell of fish, but there was always fish on the dining table in Xie's yard.
Because Ye Jin and his brothers like...
In fact, Xie didn't love her as much as she thought, but she just felt more guilty.
In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang could not see through all this and he chased after the false maternal love and was disappointed again and again. But in this life, he has already seen through it.
Seeing Xiao Xuetang's calm expression, Qiyue and Bihen felt that their young lady was pretending to be strong. They were feeling distressed, but Xiao Xuetang suddenly said, "And..."
"Bihen, I know you care about me very much, but could you please not keep remembering those embarrassing things that happened to me when I was a child?"
She also wants to save face...
Bi Hen laughed, finally dispelling the gloom that came from Ye Jin's picking on him early in the morning.
At this moment, Xiao Xuetang suddenly frowned and said, "It's bad!"
Bihen and Qiyue saw Xiao Xuetang looking serious and asked hurriedly, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"I left the secret recipe of spices that I prepared for Sister Hongfu in the ancestral hall last night. I must not let Ye Jin pick it up!"
……
At this moment, a sneaky figure passed by the ancestral hall, picked up the paper that fell on the ground and gave it to Ye Jin to ask for credit.
Ye Jin looked at the secret recipe, a smug smile appeared on his lips, and he said, "This is really easy to get. Just as I expected, Xiao Xuetang has quite a few secret recipes."
Qiao Niang said impatiently, "Miss, this is a godsend opportunity. The perfume shop is waiting for our secret recipes to invest in it. Now that we have these secret recipes, everything will be done!"
Qiao Niang has been keeping an eye on Yan Xinji these past two days. She is very envious of the customers coming in and out of Yan Xinji and the huge sums of money that come in.
However, Yan Xinji had agreed to cooperate with him, but he had to see the secret recipe in Ye Jin's hand.
Ye Jin originally wanted to get something for nothing and obtain Yan Xinji's secret formula for cosmetics, so he thought of starting with Xiao Xuetang.
Today, Ye Jin took a walk around Xiao Xuetang's yard and saw several ancient books about spices on Xiao Xuetang's bookshelf.
It seems that the intelligence report about Xiao Xuetang being proficient in perfume making is indeed correct.
"It seems that we can sign the Yan Xinji franchise agreement!"
Ye Jin folded the secret recipe and put it away, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes.
Even though Xiao Xuetang was a little clever, he was still played around by her in the end!
Everything Xiao Xuetang had was just to prepare for Ye Jin's wedding...
"Copy this secret recipe and return it."
Ye Jin instructed Qiao Niang.
Now Ye Jin has moved into Zhuijinxuan as she wished, and will soon be recorded in the family tree by Xiao Yi and become the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. Everything seems to be going smoothly.
But after the confrontation with Xiao Xuetang some time ago, Ye Jin did not dare to be careless and decided to act cautiously. For the time being, she could not let Xiao Xuetang know that she was going to cash in the secret recipe of the spice in Xiao Xuetang's hands!
In the afternoon, Qiao Niang, under Ye Jin's order, went to deliver the secret recipe to Yan Xinji to discuss cooperation.
Hong Fu was delighted when she saw it and said, "Cangchun, Chuchen, Sihe and Wensi, these four incense blends were tributed to the emperor in the previous dynasty, but they have been lost for a long time. If your master has such a family secret recipe, we can naturally cooperate, but..."
Hongfu changed the subject and Qiaoniang's heart suddenly hung in the air.
