Aunt Gong had thought that she would definitely be able to do it because Aunt Wu had taught her how to make vegetable porridge.

However, after trying it out, she realized…the taste was completely different from Aunt Wu’s!

Fortunately, there was plenty of time now, so she could ask for external help!

When she called the old mansion, Aunt Wu put down the work at hand and immediately picked up the call.

As soon as she heard that it was for the Master, she told Aunts Gong to wait. She would send it to their apartment after she was done at the old mansion.

Aunt Gong couldn’t thank her enough.

Aunt Wu had chosen to bring the vegetable porridge back to the old mansion instead of making it in the apartment because the kitchen in the old mansion was more well-equipped and the vegetable porridge tasted better.

In the kitchen of the old mansion.

Chef Qin not only liked to study dishes, but he also liked to clean the kitchen.

The Pei family’s kitchen was well-equipped, and it was almost as good as the best western restaurant in A City. Chef Qin had the right to use this place during his tenure, so he treated this place as his own world and took care of it carefully.

In fact, the servants of the Pei family were responsible for cleaning up the kitchen after every meal, but Chef Qin did not need them and cleaned it himself.

Those ceramic heat-conducting equipment were expensive, so he usually did not need the servants to clean up his kitchen, nor did he allow the servants to use his kitchen.

This was his bottom line.

“Master Qin, can I use your kitchen?”

However, Chef Qin had just cleaned up the kitchen until it was shiny and spotless when someone came to challenge his bottom line.

He folded the rag and threw it to the side of the cupboard. He turned around and was about to refuse sternly.

The next moment, he saw Aunt Wu waiting for his reply with a smile.

Chef Qin paused for a second. “Sure.”

The servant who passed by glanced at him.

Where are your principles, Mr. Qin?

Aunt Wu said, “thank you so much. I’ll just cook a bowl of vegetable porridge. It’ll be finished soon.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Chef Qin stepped aside to make way for his precious kitchen. “I’ve been wanting to see how you make vegetable porridge for a long time!”

The expression on his face changed very quickly.

Aunt Wu said, “it’s a casual meal. It’s not presentable.”

Knowing that her Master was waiting for the porridge, she did not waste any time. As she returned, she went to the sink and began to wash the vegetables.

“Not at all.” Chef Qin sounded pleasantly surprised. “The simpler the dish, the more it tests your culinary skills.”

Aunt Wu smiled. “You flatter me, Master Qin.”

Su Ji went back to her bedroom to change. She was wearing a ladylike dress that she usually would not wear except for acting. She also wore a fisherman’s hat with a very low brim.

To the extent that even her own mother could not recognize her.

When she went out, she passed by the kitchen. Aunt Gong was finishing the bowl of porridge that she had failed to make. When she saw Third Young Mistress coming over, she smiled embarrassedly and told her that she was waiting for Aunt Wu to come and rescue her.

Actually, Su Ji wanted to say that it was fine as long as it was nourishing the stomach and that there was no need to be so picky about the taste. However, since Aunt Gong had already asked for help, and there was still time before Pei Huai took the medicine, there was no hurry. Su Ji only thanked her.

Speaking of Aunt Wu, Su Ji thought of her mother again.

During today’s video call, Madam Xu was sitting in the car. She didn’t know where she was going.

She did not cough in the video, but Su Ji felt that she was holding it in.

Su Ji’s first stop after she was discharged from the hospital yesterday was to go back to the Xu family, but Madam Xu said that she was not at home and was busy at the office.

After Pei Huai was done with his matters, he had to hurry back to the Xu family and personally take Madam Xu’s pulse.

An hour later, the Tiffany blue sports car stopped in front of Huichun Hall.

The car door opened in a spiral trajectory. Su Ji got out of the car and pressed the brim of the fisherman’s hat down again.

Pei Huai’s inflammation was a little severe this time. Since Mr. Lauren said that it could be combined with Chinese medicine, Su Ji would definitely make her own medicine.

By right, the third young mistress of the Pei family could have come to the pharmacy to buy medicine openly, but Su Ji’s attire today made it seem like she was here to steal some confidential information.

On Sunday, Huichun Hall was still crowded as usual.

Su Ji blended in with a few customers. It was inconspicuous and perfect.

As soon as she entered, she bumped into someone. It was the manager of Huichun Hall.

“Miss Su Ji?”

Su Ji’s expression changed.

The manager sized up her outfit today. “Why are you…”

“Shh!”

Before the manager could finish, Su Ji pressed her index finger to her lips. She quickly glanced at Second Master Pei, who was explaining things to the shop assistant in the inner hall, and pulled the manager to the side. “You can recognize me even when I’m dressed like this??”
