Nir. w.a.n.gs eyes widened in surprise. He was so excited that it took a while to recover from his shock. He knew how excellent Su Binglan’s cooking skills were.
The young lady had also developed her family’s famous delicacies, including barbecued skewers, hotpot, stinky tofu, duck blood vermicelli, and haggis soup.
Mr. w.a.n.g liked staying in Tenghe Town because of all the food there. He even considered moving his whole family to Teng County. However, he wanted his parents, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren to live in Su Teng Village.
It was convenient to live there because of the bustling town. Then, the family could buy many things whenever they visited Tenghe Town or Su Teng
Market. Moreover, his mother enjoyed lively areas, and his father liked food.
Mr. w.a.n.g had worked since he was young and had little time with his parents. He always felt guilty for not being dutiful enough to his parents.
He had moved to Tenghe Town when he became Drunken Cloud’s manager. He often missed his parents, who lived in the capital. Later, he met Su Binglan, and she changed his life.
Tenghe Town and Su Teng Village underwent tremendous development and changes because of her. In time, more and more delicacies appeared in the town, most of which Su Binglan had developed.
Thanks to her innovative dishes, Drunken Cloud surpa.s.sed other restaurants and became the number-one eating establishment in Tenghe Town. Many merchants who visited the town would visit Drunken Cloud for its signature dishes.
They also knew about the many delicacies in Tenghe Town and would visit because of its reputation. Since more people visited the town, Drunken Cloud’s business boomed.
Of course, Mr. w.a.n.g and the Xu family were thrilled at how well Drunken Cloud did. Mr. w.a.n.g had tried many delicacies in Tenghe Town and found them all delicious.
Whenever there was something new to eat, he would hire someone to send it to his parents in the capital to try. His mother’s appet.i.te even improved after eating those delicacies.
Mr. w.a.n.gs wife and children also liked the food from Tenghe Town. They often sent him letters, asking him to send them more delicious delicacies. The whole family was thrilled.
When Mr. w.a.n.g returned home before the New Year, he could tell his family had become more harmonious. Everyone was delighted to see him, and his grandmother praised him as a dutiful grandson.
His status in the family rose, and his relatives were enthusiastic when they saw him. He knew it was because he often sent them delicious food. Mr. w.a.n.gs family greatly valued him, and it made him happy.
Moreover, the Xu family promoted him because of his outstanding performance managing Drunken Cloud. Many dignitaries and n.o.bles had to make bookings through him if they wanted to eat at Drunken Cloud.
After a while, he became part of their circle, making it easier for him to get his son and nephew decent jobs. Mr. w.a.n.g thought about it and realized it was all thanks to Su Binglan.
Nir. w.a.n.g knew she had unknowingly helped and saved many people. She had also influenced many people’s lives. Everyone was grateful to her whenever they talked about her amongst each other.
At Tenghe Town’s Drunken Cloud, he would overhear people discussing Su
Teng Village’s delicacies. Most of them even spoke of Su Binglan with respect. They mentioned how good and capable she was and how she had helped many people.
Mr. w.a.n.g would even hear people talking about her whenever he visited the market. He had also taught his family to make dumplings when he returned for the New Year.
During the celebrations, his whole family made dumplings and ate together. Everyone enjoyed the dumplings, saying they were delicious. The atmosphere at his house was warm and lively.
Mr. w.a.n.g was grateful to Su Binglan. Hence, he treated her with respect whenever he saw her. He became excited when Su Binglan mentioned having a new dish for the restaurant.
He knew it would be delicious because Su Binglan had developed it. Mr. w.a.n.g asked tremblingly, “I-Is that true, Miss Su? You have a new dish?”
He thought he had misheard and could only ask again. His eyes sparkled as he spoke, “I’m so excited to hear about it. Miss Su, if you have a new dish for us, I will give you this meal for free! Then, we can negotiate the price for your new dish.’
Su Binglan had already provided Drunken Cloud with two dishes last time.
One was the sour and spicy potato pancake, and the other was spicy chicken. Those two dishes had brought extraordinary profits to Drunken Cloud.
Most customers visited the restaurant for those dishes. Of course, they would also order other foods while there. As time pa.s.sed, Drunken Cloud’s business went through the roof.
Moreover, they even bought their chilies and potatoes straight from Su Binglan. Thus, Mr. w.a.n.g did not doubt the quality of this new dish, nor would he insist that Su Binglan give him a taste test before negotiating.
Still, Su Binglan smiled, saying, “Lend me your kitchen for a while, won’t you? I’ll make the dish and let you taste it first.”
Mr. w.a.n.g was thrilled as he ushered the young lady to the kitchen. Meanwhile, Madam Ma and the others were confused. Madam Ma still felt uneasy, even though Su Binglan had told her to eat without worry.
After all, the dishes looked expensive. However, Madam Ma did not expect Mr. w.a.n.g to waive their bill. Madam Ma and Shen Zhishan were in disbelief, thinking that only Su Binglan was this capable and influential.
They also noticed how polite Mr. w.a.n.g was to Su Binglan. Madam Ma’s initial nervousness had disappeared, and she sighed in relief.
Su Binglan took the mung bean sprouts to the kitchen, but Luo Jin’an followed, saying, “I’ll come and help you.”
Su Binglan nodded. “All right.”
Since she and Mr. w.a.n.g had not discussed the price of this new dish, the cooks and chefs were not allowed to peek and learn. Naturally, they could not help her, so Luo Jin’an took on the a.s.sistant role,
Shen Mohen offered to help, but Su Binglan told him to wait in the private room instead.
Mr. w.a.n.g was shocked when he saw the mung bean sprouts in Su Binglan’s basket..
