However, the two children of Zhang Dazhuang's wife were nearby, watching helplessly as their mother pushed the meat back, with disappointment clearly in their eyes.

Although Ji Liangping was considered to be a non-verbal person in the Ji family, he was also a eloquent speaker in front of outsiders. When he saw this, he quickly smiled and said:

"Sister-in-law, that's what you said. There is no need to talk about our relationship. This is why I want to give our children good food. I know that the two children are hungry for meat."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Dazhuang's wife's two children with friendly eyes.

Zhang Dazhuang's daughter-in-law looked back and saw her children's eager eyes but suppressed her excitement. She couldn't say any words of rejection.

She was embarrassed again and again, but in the end her loving mother's heart took over. She took the meat and said with emotion:

"Auntie is always thinking about us...Second brother, don't worry, I'll make sure to keep a close eye on that place, and you can see clearly whoever comes in."

Ji Liangping responded with a smile, and after a few words of concern about Brother Duan Fang's affairs, he returned to Ji's house.

It was not yet time to cook, so Zhang Dazhuang's wife put away the meat and moved a small bench to sit at the entrance of the courtyard. From here, she could clearly see whether anyone was entering the entrance of the ancestral hall.

Ji Xiang and Li Cuihua were in a hurry to get the recipe, after all, the Ji family had already started making new products.

If they wait too long and someone else does it, their Qian's Restaurant will still have no results, and there will be no chance of a turnaround.

Chandler was also very anxious and urged again and again.

Jixiang had no choice but to come to Li Cuihua's house again.

He was quite clever. After making some secret signals, he discovered that Li Cuihua had not come out at all. Guessing that she might not be here, he walked away and asked other people in the village where Li Cuihua had gone.

It happened that the person he was asking about was the most gossipy old lady Zhang in the village.

Mrs. Zhang was suffering from the fact that no one was talking about her gossip, so she immediately made a lot of complaints to him.

Only then did he know that Li Cuihua had stolen someone else's things and was thrown into the ancestral hall.

But for the Ji family to go to such lengths to punish her, Ji Xiang felt that she might have some important information, so he hurriedly ran to the ancestral hall.

The ancestral halls in the countryside are not like the ancestral halls of wealthy families. The ancestral halls of wealthy families are specially guarded by slaves, but the ancestral halls here are always empty.

Li Cuihua was kneeling here alone, Zhang Dazhuang's wife's house was just opposite.

After seeing someone go in, she squinted her eyes instantly, then gave her daughter a few words, and walked quickly to Ji's house.

When Mrs. Ji heard from Zhang Dazhuang's wife that someone had gone to the ancestral hall, she quickly called her son and daughter-in-law.

"That man looked very familiar, not because he looked familiar, but because the clothes he was wearing seemed to have been seen somewhere before." Zhang Dazhuang's wife added.

Mrs. Ji's face suddenly became clear.

Ordinary people don't have any clothes that are familiar to others. Most of them are the clerks in a store in the county, wearing uniformly issued clothes.

At that moment, she did not dare to delay, and walked to the entrance of the ancestral hall with her children and grandchildren.

They walked quietly and deliberately did not take their children with them, for fear that the children would make noises that would attract the attention of people inside.

But Ji Miaomiao was different. Mrs. Ji firmly believed that her granddaughter was a blessed person and smart, so she would definitely not disturb them.

She was also worried that a group of grown-ups at home would not look down on her precious granddaughter, so she held her granddaughter in her arms.

The ancestral hall is not big, perhaps for the convenience of future generations to offer sacrifices, but the space outside is quite large. Mrs. Ji and others can clearly hear what the people inside are saying while standing in a hidden place outside.

"That's it? Are there any other secret recipes?"

They heard a male voice.

"This is already very rare, okay? If I hadn't tried so hard to find out for you, how could I have been punished to kneel in the ancestral hall?" This was Li Cuihua's impatient voice.

Mrs. Ji immediately understood.

I bet Li Cuihua has joined forces with someone else to plan their family's belongings.

Ji Miaomiao has a keen eye. Even though the ancient characters are traditional Chinese characters, the wine is still similar to the modern wine. She recognized the word "wine" on the clothes on the back of the waiter at a glance.

It means that the person talking to Li Cuihua is from a wine shop.

There is only one Qian's Liquor in the town.

It was impossible for Huajian Restaurant to establish cooperation with them and send someone to ask Li Cuihua to inquire. Only Qian's Restaurant was left.

Zhang Dazhuang’s wife also saw clearly and whispered:

"Mom, this looks like a waiter from Qian's Restaurant."

Her man is like one or two, and when there is no local wine at home, he is willing to buy some wine to drink.

The price of this wine is not higher than that of meat. It is quite suitable and can be afforded by the family after just a few sips.

After going back and forth, she became familiar with the clothes of the waiter at Qian's Restaurant. Now that she took a quick look at it, she suddenly remembered it.

When the Ji family heard this, they thought about the conversation between the two people just now and wondered what else they didn't understand.

It was probably the Qian Family Restaurant who came here to inquire about their wine recipes, and accidentally found an unreliable person like Li Cuihua.

Now he actually sneaked into the ancestral hall to ask Li Cuihua if she had found out any information. How abominable!

The people in the Ji family outside were so angry that before they could exchange a few words, they heard the people inside talking again.

"Okay, eldest sister, I know that you have done your best this time! Don't worry, our shopkeepers have said that the wine this time is very important. If it is done well, your money will not be lost."

When Ji Xiang saw that Li Cuihua was annoyed by him, he quickly put down his posture and apologized a few words. His words were quite pleasant, and Li Cuihua's expression softened after hearing this.

Ji Xiang didn't know Li Cuihua's character, so he thought she had really gone to find out the information. He felt that it was a bit too general, so he couldn't help but ask again:

"Good sister, please tell me what you saw again. I am stupid and I am afraid that I will tell the shopkeeper if I go back. Then it will delay the shopkeeper's important business. It will also delay your money, sister, right?"

Hearing Ji Xiang's words, a hint of guilt flashed in Li Cuihua's eyes.

Where did she see anything about Ji's family having a drink? She always went in when others were not at home.

All I know is that they want to dry the pears.

But what condiments are added to the wine are all secrets. It’s great that she can find out about this, okay?

Thinking of this, Li Cuihua felt relieved a little and then made up random words:

"It's just to dry the pears and soak them in wine. I don't know their original recipe, but it's based on that."

Doesn't this fruit wine just put the fruit directly into the wine? Even if the Ji family's method is different, it is still similar, and Li Cuihua doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.
