As soon as he said this, the whole hall was in an uproar.

No one expected that the gossip back then would actually involve human lives.

Mother Wei and Uncle Wei were shocked and interrupted Pei Liang regardless of the occasion: "You are talking nonsense!"

"There are still archives in the Shuntian Mansion Yamen. You can find out if they are true or false by checking." Pei Liang said: "The hall of Tianxiang Tower is not the entrance to the hall, so you two don't have to rush to defend yourself.

He smiled again: "I only mentioned human life, but didn't say the specific details. You two were so impatient, but you remembered some things about running the branch?"

Mother Wei has an honest face, but she is really quick-witted and articulate.

She hurriedly said: "Little Chef Pei is good at making irresponsible remarks. Who knows that the branch was originally run by my family, and it closed down as soon as he left. You said someone died, whose responsibility is it?"

As he spoke, he cried again: "Poor that person in my family, he will be slandered by the younger generation even after he dies."

Wei Yingshu couldn't bear Pei Liang anymore: "That's enough, Miss Pei, if you don't want to hand over Tianxiang Tower, let's keep competing. No matter how many times, I will prove that my father is the one who is qualified to inherit the first tower in the world."

"My father worked for the Pei family for so many years. In the end, he was expelled and plundered. He had nothing. He died long before he was forty. As long as Miss Pei still has some conscience, don't insult my late father. If you have anything to do with me."

This brave and stubborn attitude made Gao Lezhang's expression softer, and his eyes when he looked at Pei Liang were as sharp as a knife.

The Pei family's No. 1 restaurant in the world is famous no matter how famous it is. In the final analysis, it just runs a restaurant. Now it has begun to decline. It relies on a young woman to support it. From setting up a trap to forcing the other party to compete in cooking skills, to put it bluntly, it is just because the sweetheart wants to win openly.

Return all wishes.

In fact, dealing with such a family is no more difficult for powerful people like them than killing an ant.

However, because Pei Liang confused right and wrong several times and repeatedly exposed the pain and betrayal of the master in the center, Gao Lezhang and others looked at Pei Liang with cruelty.

Pei Liang, however, acted as if he hadn't seen it, and ignored Wei Yingshu's words. Instead, he said to Wei's mother: "You are indeed the one who can control Chef Wei to death. He is the one who committed a huge disaster and ended up in a miserable life. I'm afraid he is.

She knows how to handle the young men around her better than your daughter."

There is no truth in these words. In Pei Liang's view, although Wei Yingshu is loved by everyone, in terms of using other people's admiration and favor for gain, ten of her can't compare to her mother who looks honest and sweet.

In the original novel, this woman often indirectly instigated her admirers to seek benefits or solve troubles, but her methods were very clever. Even though she took advantage of others, she did not allow her daughter to owe any favors, and never made any promises. The young man's behavior

With a tone of admiration and impulsiveness, this woman knows how to give hints without even leaving a hint behind.

Wei Yingshu's cheeks turned red with anger when he heard this: "You are shameless. You are a girl who has not left the court, but your mind is filled with male thieves and female prostitutes. I and several young gentlemen are just good friends. They were just filled with righteous indignation after knowing what happened to me and came here to bear witness.

Don't insult my reputation."

Several young gentlemen naturally nodded to clarify and were extremely disgusted with Pei Liang.

Pei Liang smiled and said: "I don't mean to humiliate Miss Wei, but if Aunt Wei is so confident, isn't it because she is sure that Mr. Gao will remove the extraneous things for you?"

Then he looked at Gao Lezhang and said, "Master Gao, there is no need to whisper to the attendants. Even if you ask someone to remove the files now, it is too late."

Gao Lezhang's face suddenly turned ugly. Although he was the son of a minister, he had a distinguished status, but he had no official position after all. His plan to abuse his private power was exposed. If he was caught, it would definitely give his father's opponents a leg up.

Pei Liang came to Wei's mother: "Even if the files are transferred, the original victim still has his family. Boss Zhu and Boss Du, the two intermediaries who brokered the peace, also know the ins and outs. Are you still planning to keep silent about them all?"

When it comes to the two judges who favor Pei Liang, everyone still doesn't know the whole story, and they also understand that there is something fishy about the so-called bribery of the judges.

There are also judges who can be bribed, but those two are already well-known wealthy businessmen, and the little gift from Pei Fugui is really not the key. The main thing is that the two of them knew what happened in the first place, and even if they knew that Pei Xiaochu's skills were not as good as others, they couldn't bear it.

Mr. Pei's life-long efforts fell into the hands of the Wei family.

But after being exposed, his reputation was ruined, and Wei Yingshu had all the power and reason, and could not argue with anyone. In the end, not only the three members of the Pei family met a miserable end, but the two judges were also implicated.

"Chef Pei, stop being so pretentious, tell me what's going on." someone urged.

Pei Liang was in no hurry and was waiting for evidence. When he saw that it was almost done, he said loudly: "I will never deny the contribution of Chef Wei. Even my grandfather never had the intention of changing the successor."

"When my grandfather half-retired and Chef Wei took over Tianxiang House, Mrs. Wei regarded herself as the mistress and squeezed out Tianxiang House's original purchases with her brother Liu Cai to monopolize this lucrative position."

"Everyone here has been supplying goods to Tianxianglou for decades. We at Tianxianglou have always been picky about the requirements for ingredients and seasonings. Our regular cooperation is with stores of high quality and integrity without interruption. Although it has been ten years now, there was a period of time when Tianxianglou

There should still be an impression that Lou changed suppliers without any reason."

"Yes, yes, yes." Someone said quickly: "It was suddenly changed without any explanation. We have never chosen the best supply from Tianxianglou. But once, Chef Pei just brought the stuff to the door and threw it into our arms.

inner."

"I thought that Chef Wei would get a more attention-grabbing supply. Unexpectedly, some time later, Chef Pei personally came to the door with a gift and apologized. Not afraid of the joke, I was still gloating at the time. A supply of this quality can be exchanged at will.

?Due to many years of old friendship, our products are always the best for Tianxianglou. How can other places be so honest?"

"According to what Little Chef Pei said, it turned out that Madam Wei took the job and wanted to make a fortune from it."

After all, the purchase price has been fixed in the past, and it can be seen that the accounts are wrong at a glance, but if you exchange the price of the top-grade goods for the second-class goods, it will be profitable. How big is the demand for Tianxianglou? It will take less than a month.

Make a lot of money.

"I was just talking about how the quality of Tianxianglou has deteriorated during that time. That's why."

"Don't be rude." Mother Wei said hurriedly: "It's been so many years. Although we changed the supply to make the old man unhappy, it was also to save costs. As for the quality, we never dare to be careless. My brother and I worked hard from dawn to dusk.

Compare prices everywhere and strive to get high quality products at low prices. I don’t accept the idea of ​​substituting inferior ingredients.”

"Hey~~, do you think I'm making random nonsense?" The man was not happy: "I'm not afraid to tell you, it happened to be my mother's sixtieth birthday at that time, and I booked a banquet on the second floor to entertain relatives and friends. Some of them were old friends who came from Jiangnan.

They are all gourmets who have made friends over food. Before I came here, I praised Tianxianglou to great effect, but after tasting it, several people could not say anything like this, which made me lose face."

"Everyone has said that there is no problem with the knife skills, cooking methods, and heat, but the selection of ingredients is a bit sloppy. I have been teased about this for many years, can I remember clearly?"

Mother Wei and Uncle Wei were speechless.

Pei Liang nodded and said: "Yes, it was the Wei family who shamelessly amassed money, which caused the reputation of Tianxiang Tower to be damaged. Someone who had a close personal relationship with my grandfather tactfully mentioned the poor quality of the materials used in the array, and my grandfather immediately

We checked the inventory and found out the two of them."

"My grandfather was furious and directly ordered Chef Wei to divorce his wife. At that time, he declared that if he didn't make a decisive decision, he would be implicated by this stupid and greedy person in the future."

"Cook Wei was an honest and honest person, but he was also soft-hearted. He was manipulated by the Wei family. After crying and repenting, and resisting with the then young girl Wei, Chef Wei disobeyed his mentor and only swore that from now on

We must strictly discipline them and we will not let these two get involved in the business."

"My grandfather naturally couldn't force him. He was very disappointed with Chef Wei, so he took back Tianxiang Tower and handed over the management of the newly opened branch to Chef Wei. On the one hand, it made up for his past mistakes, and on the other hand, it was also a test."

"Who would have thought that these two people were so cunning that they couldn't directly intervene to reap the benefits, so they bribed the store manager to join in the corruption. It's just that this time they learned smarter. It was indeed as she said just now. They didn't dare to take action on the fixed supply, only the scattered ones.

Or ideas for seasonal materials.”

Pei Liang paused for a moment and sighed: "It was the season for eating mushrooms at that time. These two people abandoned the goods from the mushroom farmers in previous years and purchased a batch of mushrooms of acceptable quality from some source."

"It's just that everyone knows that there are many types of fungi that are difficult to identify. If you are not careful, you may mistake poisonous fungi for edible ones. If you want to purchase rare types of fungi, you must find an experienced fungus farmer with a regular origin, otherwise there will be consequences.

It may be unimaginable.”

Pei Liang's eyes fell firmly on Wei Mu and Liu Cai: "The mushrooms you purchased happened to have a toadstool mixed in. The chef who cut the pile didn't recognize it at the time, so he stir-fried it into the dishes and served it to the table."

"The guest foamed at the mouth when he returned home after eating. He died after ineffective treatment. His family immediately reported it to the government. Fortunately, the governor was also a frequent visitor to Tianxiang Tower at the time, so he did not come to arrest the guest in a big way, but notified his grandfather first."

"After my grandfather found out, he took the lead from Mr. Du and Zhu, who had some friendship with the host's family. He knelt down to him at an early age and offered a huge sum of money in compensation. Only then did he persuade him to move his property and save you, Chef Wei, and you two.

human life.”

"It's just that now that the matter has come to this, Chef Wei is still worried about Miss Wei's biological mother being divorced, and is afraid that it will be difficult in the future, so he still hasn't given up on you two. The Wei family lived next door to my Pei family at the beginning, and Miss Wei must still remember that time with the Wei family and

How many beatings did Liu Cai receive?"

Wei Yingshu was the same age as Pei Liang, they were both six years old at the time, and they had already begun to remember things. Unlike Pei Xiaochu, who was often taken by her grandfather and heard the whole story, she was so pampered at that time that adults' affairs would not be placed on her.

In front of a child.

But before being driven out of the capital, her father, who had always been good-tempered and obedient to her mother, beat her mother several times. Afterwards, her mother held her in her arms and cried, telling her that the old man was the one who got in the way and forced her father to divorce his wife.

People are restless at home.

Wei Qigui would not talk about his birth mother's misery in front of his daughter, but Wei's mother was different. From childhood, Wei Yingshu was indoctrinated by the 'truth' processed by Wei's mother, and she was convinced of the coldness and ugliness of the Pei family from top to bottom.

.

But I never expected to hear another version of the incident today.

"I don't believe it. My mother has been honest throughout her life and would never do what you said -"

"Miss Wei." Pei Liang interrupted her: "My grandfather was extremely disappointed with Chef Wei at the beginning, but he tried his best to cover up his faults. Even my father, knowing that he was not on good terms with Chef Wei and having held grudges for many years because of his inheritance,

I was afraid that he would publicize it everywhere to vent his personal anger and completely discredit Chef Wei, so I didn't even tell my own son about this scandal, and would rather bear the reputation of expelling the successor."

"Your family's property was originally dissipated in order to compensate the family of the victim. My grandfather even added a large sum to it. This unnamed account is still here."

"Expelling your family from the capital is also to let you leave the place of right and wrong, to completely change the story, and to force him to swear not to use cooking skills from now on. This means that he has already seen the livelihood of this entrance. Since Chef Wei cannot restrain his wife, sooner or later he will return

It will cause big trouble."

"Although my grandfather was decisive at that time, he still considered everything for your family and even subsidized road expenses. And Chef Wei knew his grandfather's painstaking efforts very well. He would also ask people to send congratulatory gifts every year on his three birthdays. Until my grandfather's death, he never stopped.

The gift list is still at my house, and there is no way it can be faked."

"Chef Wei still remembers his teacher's kindness, dare to ask Miss Wei, my grandfather was extremely kind and righteous, but in your mother's mouth, he became a despicable, mean and ungrateful person. Mr. Wei was full of lies and shameless, and he committed a huge disaster and implicated the whole family, causing great harm to the whole family.

The husband's life was poor and he died young due to depression, and his daughter became an ungrateful person who didn't know right from wrong."

"For such a person, don't taint the word honesty and duty."

Wei Yingshu fell into shock and confusion, subconsciously wanting to defend her mother, but as Pei Liang clearly explained what happened that year, there were witnesses to what happened at each time, and there were even two witnesses at the scene.

The surrounding diners were so shocked that they gasped in shock at the revelation.

If we talk about the upright cooking competition between Wei Yingshu's orphans and widowed mother before to compete for inheritance, it can also be said that it was the cause and effect that Chef Pei himself unfairly planted.
