Chapter 218 Hazelnut Crisp Incident
The carriage stopped in front of the former Sushiyuan pastry shop.
"Why buy it? Just go in and mention the Zheng family in Pingchuan County, and the shopkeeper will know."
Aunt Cai has always looked down on Xu Zaohua, who came from the countryside, and there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
The eldest young lady knew nothing about the Zheng family’s relatives.
Is it necessary to buy the hazelnut crisps from Sushiyuan?
Matron Cai snorted and sent a maid off the car, giving instructions of this and that.
The owner of Sushiyuan was afraid that when he heard about the Zheng family in Pingchuan County, he would not only not charge money, but also make the snacks himself.
"Peach Blossom Dessert Shop 2."
Ma Cai looked in the direction the little maid was going. When she raised her head, she saw the plaque of the pastry shop and could not help but read it out loud.
She remembered correctly, the Sushiyuan shop was here.
When Sushiyuan first opened, she came to present congratulatory gifts on behalf of the Zheng family.
How could she remember it wrong?
How come this place has become a peach blossom dessert?
And it’s a second store.
Isn’t it said that there is only one pastry shop, Sushiyuan, in the entire Yanguan Town?
When Xu Zaohua heard the words "Peach Blossom Dessert", she felt as if a knife was cut into her heart and raised her head to look over.
"Madam Cai, is this shop really Peach Blossom Desserts?"
Xu Zaohua could not read and felt quite insecure in front of Madam Cai.
Matron Cai despised Xu Zaohua more and more. It was really a joke that the eldest lady of a juren family was illiterate.
"If it's not Peach Blossom Dessert, what could it be? Madam, there are three characters in Sushi Garden and six characters in Peach Blossom Dessert Store 2. You can tell the answer by counting the characters on the door plaque." Madam Cai's words were unpleasant to the ears.
Nanny Cai talked about Xu Zaohua in front of several maids, and Xu Zaohua's face turned purple.
She touched her belly and thought that this old lady really shouldn't stay in the Zheng family.
Peach blossom dessert?
How come Peach Blossom Dessert is here? This is clearly the Sushi Garden.
Isn’t Peach Blossom Dessert on Rouge Lane?
Wait, just now Aunt Cai said it was the second Taohua Dessert store. Could it be that Taohua Dessert has taken over Sushiyuan?
Xu Zaohua was extremely flustered.
She didn't want Tong Huaqiong, Gu Taohua and Gu Jingzhe to be so proud of themselves.
"Why did Sushiyuan change its name?"
Nanny Cai frowned slightly, but didn't take it seriously.
Is it abnormal to change the name of a shop?
Sushiyuan has been entrenched in Yanguan Town for so many years that the people in Yanguan Town are somewhat aesthetically fatigued by it. I guess that's why Mr. Ma came up with the strategy of changing the name.
You know what, this name change sounds pretty good.
Peach blossoms, desserts, a whole fresh feeling.
But no matter whether the shop is called Sushiyuan or Taohua Dessert, the shopkeeper cannot deny the Zheng family.
Xu Zaohua looked at Nanny Cai with mockery in her eyes.
This nanny thought that Taohua Dessert and Sushiyuan were the same company.
I’m afraid that the maid will be slapped in the face when she carries the Zheng family out of the shop.
Who is Widow Tong?
A little maidservant went up to the shopkeeper to ask for hazelnut cakes, but she was afraid she would be chased out.
Xu Zaohua wanted to see Aunt Cai get slapped in the face.
"Madam Cai, you don't know, right? Sushiyuan is Sushiyuan, and Taohua Dessert is Taohua Dessert. The two are not from the same company." Gu Taohua said.
Aunt Cai obviously didn't believe it and said, "This is Sushi Garden. I've been here before. Besides, when has there ever been a pastry shop other than Sushi Garden in Yanguan Town?"
Xu Zaohua said, "Madam, if you don't believe me, just ask someone and you'll know."
After Xu Zaohua finished speaking, she stopped a passing lady and asked, "Excuse me, auntie, isn't this Sushi Garden? When did it change to Peach Blossom Dessert?"
The lady said, "Girl, I can see you haven't been to Yanguan Town for a long time. Sushiyuan has closed down. The original shop was sold to Manager Tong. It is now a branch of Taohua Dessert. It has been a while."
The old lady looked Xu Zaohua up and down and started to recommend Peach Blossom desserts.
"The desserts at Taohua Dessert are better than those at Sushiyuan, and the prices are reasonable."
The old lady left after she finished speaking. She was going to Taohua Dessert to try their new products.
She was afraid of having to queue if she arrived too late.
Xu Zaohua forced a smile.
Although she wanted to see Aunt Cai get slapped in the face, she would be happy if Sushi Garden was replaced by any other dim sum shop, except that the peach blossom desserts hurt her too much.
She doesn't care how the peach dessert tastes.
What she was concerned about was that Taohua Dessert had developed so rapidly that it was able to squeeze out the local tycoon Sushiyuan.
This made her feel incredible, and at the same time, a surge of anger rose in her chest.
She felt that demonstrating in front of Gu's house this morning was a joke.
No wonder Gu Taohua no longer cares about the jewels and jade on her head. It turns out that the confidence was given by the growing Taohua Desserts.
"Sushiyuan actually sold the shop?" Madam Cai looked surprised.
Xu Zaohua calmed down and sneered, "Madam didn't believe me when I told her just now. Now you're asking the little girl to ask for hazelnut pastry. Isn't this a slap in the face of the Zheng family?"
Madam Cai said indifferently, "It's just a question, what's wrong? The young lady may not know how famous our Zheng family is outside. I'm afraid that Peach Blossom Dessert will also rush to send cakes to the Zheng family."
Xu Zaohua snorted.
"Mammy, I'm afraid you don't know who owns this Peach Blossom Dessert?"
"No matter who opened it, as long as the Zheng family's name is mentioned, no one will refuse to recognize it." Madam Cai looked confident.
Xu Zaohua turned her head and rolled her eyes, then saw the little maid coming out of Taohua Dessert Shop No. 2 in a panic.
My hands are empty.
"Madam Cai, Madam." The little maid came to the carriage.
"Why are you panicking!"
Along with a harsh rebuke, Xu Zaohua slapped the little maid in the face.
Xu Zaohua was already dissatisfied with Nanny Cai's contempt for her, but she didn't dare to get angry with her for the time being. She was so angry that she had no place to vent it.
It just so happened that the little maid called Madam Cai first and then her, which gave her an outlet for her anger.
The little maidservant who had suffered the unexpected disaster covered her swollen face with her hands and her eyes turned red.
"The young lady is too angry." Madam Cai said dissatisfiedly.
Nanny Cai had been immersed in the mansion for half her life, so she naturally understood that Xu Zaohua's slap was a slap on her face.
Xu Zaohua stroked her red palm, raised her eyes and looked at the little maid and said calmly: "Madam, you should ask her why she is so flustered? Didn't Madam say that she was in a hurry to deliver cakes to the Zheng family at the Peach Blossom Dessert Party? Why did she come back empty-handed?"
Madam Cai held her breath.
She also wanted to ask the little maid why she was so flustered after going to Peach Blossom Dessert.
It's just a pastry shop. There's no need to panic even if it changes its name and owner.
The little maidservant was just not steady and acted as a tool for the young mistress to slap her in the face.
She didn't believe that if she mentioned the name of the Zheng family in any shop in Pingchuan County, she would be treated coldly.
Unless the store owner is blind.
Thinking of this, Madam Cai asked the little maid, "Xiao Que, has anyone in this shop bullied you?"
The little maid looked aggrieved, with tears in her eyes, and said, "I told the shop assistant as Madam Zheng said that Madam Zheng wanted to eat hazelnut pastry, but the assistant asked which Zheng family? I just told the shopkeeper to do the talking, but the assistant said that buying hazelnut pastry was a small matter and didn't need to be approved by the shopkeeper... Then the shopkeeper came..."
The little maid didn't know whether this was bullying or not. When she mentioned the Zheng family, not only did the waiter not look at her with any respect, but he also failed to show her the courtesy of serving her the freshly baked hazelnut pastry.
She asked her waiter to invite the shopkeeper over, but she was dumbfounded when the shopkeeper arrived.
Because the owner of Taohua Dessert is the former housekeeper He of the Zheng family.
The little maidservant wanted to say something but stopped herself. The slap from Xu Zaohua just now made her hesitate. She didn't know whether she should say that Butler He was the owner of Taohua Desserts.
Everyone in the Zheng family knew about the feud between Manager He and the eldest young lady. She was afraid that mentioning Manager He would irritate the eldest young lady and she would be beaten even more severely.
