A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

268 Guilt

Jiang Ying looked at the chef and waiter proudly. Are you shocked? You’ve never seen them before, right?

He had asked Ning Yue about this last night. This red spicy thing was called chili!

Ning Yue did not know what Jiang Ying was thinking and had been working hard to cook.

She stir-fried a plate of pig kidneys with a big fire. After a while, a fragrance that they had never smelled before wafted out of the kitchen. Everyone present except Jiang Ying stared and drooled.

Ning Yue made many dishes that they had never seen before.

After cooking for the entire morning, the dishes were placed on the table.

Then, Ning Yue called for the people in the shop to sit down. The employees did not dare to, thinking about how the servants could sit and eat with the owner.

Ning Yue said, “This is called tasting. After you try it, you have to tell us if every dish is good or bad before we can improve. Sit down and try it!”

Jiang Ying looked at Ning Yue sadly. “Yueyue, where’s mine?” He was unhappy.

“Oh, I will make it again when I get back tonight. Don’t worry.” Ning Yue comforted Jiang Ying.

“Alright, give it to me tonight,” Jiang Ying said.

Then, the employees sat down and began to taste Ning Yue’s dishes.

All of them ate in satisfaction. They had never eaten anything so delicious in their lives. It was delicious and spicy. It was very satisfying! They still wanted to eat more!

“Boss, it’s too delicious!” Bai Lu said.

“Yes, Boss, we’ve never eaten anything so delicious,” said Wang Er.

“That’s right, Boss. Our restaurant business will definitely be good!” the employees said.

Ning Yue was very satisfied. She looked at the chef. “From tomorrow onwards, I’ll come over every day to guide you. After you learn it, you can start.”

“Alright! We’ll definitely learn it as soon as possible!” the chefs said.

After the Fortune Pavilion was built, it had never opened for business. However, just the architectural characteristics of the Fortune Pavilion were already very attractive, not to mention the fragrance of food that wafted out every day!

That fragrance was much more fragrant than Agarwood Pavilion. Just smelling it made one drool!

A month later, the Fortune Pavilion would officially open for business. The snacks in the shop would not be very expensive. Ordinary people could accept it. When customers left, they would buy snacks home.

However, the prices on the proper menu were more expensive. People needed the ability to spend to buy and taste the dishes.

For a moment, business at Fortune Pavilion was booming. There were too many people queuing up every day. Some dishes were sold out before dark.

Ning Yue was counting banknotes and memorizing the accounts in the study. She was so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth.

As expected, food earned money the fastest.

Although she had earned money, Ning Yue was not stingy with her dividends at all. All the ordinary employees received three taels of silver each, four taels for the foreman, and five taels for the supervisor.

As for the shopkeeper, Ning Yue gave him ten taels of silver.

All the employees were terrified. They had never received so much money and did not dare to ask for it.

“You deserve this. You’ve worked hard during this period of time. In the future, I hope everyone will do their job. The money won’t be less,” Ning Yue said.

Through this period of interaction, the employees understood Ning Yue’s personality and expressed that they would definitely work hard.

When she returned to the Ning family, it was already late. Ning Yue thought for a moment and decided to cook personally.

She also brought many snacks from the shop and planned to let Jiang Ying try them.

As Jiang Ying ate, he asked Ning Yue, “Yueyue, you’ve been too busy these past few days. I have to go to the shop to look for you. By the way, what’s with the banknotes you asked the servant to give me?” Jiang Ying asked.

Ning Yue smiled. “I’ll explain to you later. Try this dish first. What do you think?” Ning Yue asked.

“It’s delicious. Is this your cooking? Yueyue, a few of my good friends want to go to Fortune Pavilion to eat, but they can’t make an appointment after trying a few times.” Jiang Ying tasted the food excitedly.

“Shall I send it to you every day in the future?” Ning Yue asked.

When Jiang Ying heard this, he simply put down his chopsticks. He felt that something was wrong with her.

“Yueyue, what do you want me to do for you?” Jiang Ying asked Ning Yue.

Ning Yue chuckled. She felt guilty, but she really had something to tell Jiang Ying.
