Chapter 137: 137 You guys need to take control (first update)Ye Cheng sat directly in front of Xiaofeng and ordered from Lao Jian, "A serving of handmade noodles." Lao Jian nodded immediately, "Alright, coming right up." The Grandpa finally remembered his signature handmade noodles, scurried into the kitchen to prepare the ingredients, and then made them on the spot. Xiaofeng was somewhat surprised, "They have handmade noodles here too?" Ye Cheng nodded, "The owner is from the North, both his dumpling and noodle rolling skills are good. You should try both when you have the chance." "It sounds like you know the person." "I’ve been there before, and while chatting with the owner, I learned he’s from the same place. It gave me a sense of familiarity." Lao Jian, who was kneading dough, was inwardly overjoyed. The boss said he felt a strong sense of familiarity, ha, let those two upstairs be green with envy. Ye Fei, "Damn, he’s also very amiable, why doesn’t the boss mention that." Lao Hong looked at the scene of the two sitting together downstairs, and unexpectedly felt a surge of tearful excitement. The Grandpa was sitting so close to that chick, and yet there was no feeling of discomfort. Ye Fei looked at Lao Hong with tears of joy and was quite puzzled, "Lao Hong, you must be stunned." "Ye Fei, it seems like our Grandpa’s illness can be cured. By the looks of it, the day Grandpa marries the Young Madam is drawing near." "Look how excited you are, I’ve known that for a while now," Ye Fei shrugged. Regardless, after three years of silence, the day for Grandpa to return to the Imperial Capital must be getting closer, Lao Hong said with an excited expression, "We can finally leave this godforsaken place." Downstairs, Lao Jian had already served the noodles, and whether it was the color or the thickness of the noodles, they were top-notch. In his previous life, he had tasted foods from all over the country, but he rarely saw noodles as finely made as the bowl in front of him, which even aroused his appetite. Ye Cheng seemed to notice her thoughts and offered Xiaofeng a bit from his bowl, "I haven’t started eating yet, mind if I share some with you?" Su Xiaofeng felt a bit embarrassed; her eyes must have betrayed her. Ye Cheng almost put half of it into her bowl, which made Su Xiaofeng quickly intervene, "No need, I can’t eat that much." Ye Cheng smiled and began to eat. Upstairs, Ye Fei, Lao Hong, "...". Then they turned away with disdain. Wow, sharing some with you, since when was the Grandpa so considerate, tsk tsk. It must be said, the taste of the noodles was better than the dumplings; next time, he could try the noodles here. "How’s the factory going?" Ye Cheng asked Xiaofeng in a refined manner with a soft voice. Xiaofeng watched him eat the noodles, and somehow felt a sense of tranquility. "It’s all sorted out, next we need to focus on both production and expansion of sales," Xiaofeng was very optimistic about the future. Listening to her confident words, Ye Cheng wasn’t sure where her confidence stemmed from, but hearing her speak so surely, the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously. Thinking about what Baldie and the others had said earlier, Xiaofeng paused and decided to remind Ye Cheng, "Ye Cheng, do you have any friends in the county town?" "I’ve given medical service to a few families, but friends, not really." These years, he and Grandpa were mostly solitary, hardly mingling with others. Xiaofeng opened her mouth, wanted to tell him someone was looking for trouble with him, but struggled to find the words, "That Boss Wu from last time is not a good person, you offended him because of me, he definitely won’t let it go easily. You should be more careful." Although she had subdued the other party with chili powder just now, there was no guarantee that they wouldn’t hold an even deeper grudge. Ye Cheng nodded, "If he dares to come again, it won’t be my misfortune, it will be his." Xiaofeng found herself at a loss for words. ... In the Imperial Capital, at the Xu Family residence. Xu Hongtu put down the phone, his eyes gleaming with shrewdness and cunning as he toyed with two walnuts in his hand, and asked the old butler beside him, "Still didn’t get it?" The butler shook his head, "Master, you know as well as I do how skilled Young Master Gu is. Our guys are not even good enough for his practice. However, I’ve heard that the reason why Gu Wushang took Gu Yecheng away from the Imperial Capital is that Gu Yecheng has some health issues. If we can find out what illness Gu Yecheng has, we can definitely break the Gu Family’s position in the Imperial Capital over these years and replace it with our Xu Family." Old Xu chuckled lightly, "Gu Wushang is quite adept himself in medicine. If even he can’t solve it, Gu Yecheng’s illness must be more serious than we imagined. Arrange it so that our men stop taking action, and look into exactly what illness Gu Yecheng has." If Gu Wushang dared to hide Gu Yecheng away, he dared to ensure that Gu Yecheng would never return. "Yes." ... "Big brother," Ma Donghua saw Su Lao Guai hauling back another cart full of chili peppers and approached curiously, "Is the business at the big restaurant really so good that it requires daily deliveries of this many chili peppers?" Ma Donghua couldn’t count how many carts of chili peppers had been delivered. Su Lao Guai parked the cart and glanced at Ma Donghua, straightforward as he was, "Xiaofeng has taken over a food factory and will specialize in producing and selling chili sauce." Upon hearing this, Ma Donghua couldn’t contain her joy, "Oh my, big brother, I’ve heard of opening clothing factories, liquor factories, and all sorts of other factories, but this is my first time hearing about a chili sauce factory. I mean, big brother, everybody has chili peppers at home, who would go out to buy chili sauce?" Thinking that just because you helped with processing a few times, you could now start a factory, was quite a flight of fancy. Just because you haven’t heard of it doesn’t mean it can’t be done," He Ximei got down from the cart and carried the chili peppers into the house; they would be delivered to the city early the next morning. "Xiaofeng’s idea?" Without having to think about it, Ma Donghua knew it was Xiaofeng’s doing. "We support it too." Only then did Ma Donghua belatedly bring up a concern, "Big brother, doesn’t starting a factory require a fair amount of money? When did your family become so wealthy that you could afford to open a factory?" The whole village knew about the frugal life of the big brother’s family. "Donghua, it’s just a small factory, how much could it possibly cost? Besides, aren’t we also supplying goods for others?" After buying a house and opening a factory, she really didn’t have much money left. Of course, compared to before, she considered the money she had now to be quite substantial. "Sister-in-law speaks as if opening a factory costs nothing," Ma Donghua twisted her waist, letting out a light sigh, "Big brother, Xiaofeng has been acting without much consideration lately. The sister-in-law isn’t her biological mother and might find it hard to discipline her, but you are Xiaofeng’s real dad, and you need to keep an eye on her, to make sure she doesn’t get out of hand. If her factory doesn’t start up and she loses money, will you all still be able to live your lives?" "Donghua, can’t you hope for something good for our family? What do you mean by ’loses money’? We’re not afraid ourselves, so spare yourself the worry," He Ximei was brimming with confidence, and naturally disliked Ma Donghua’s words. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ma Donghua snorted coldly. The sister-in-law must have been brainwashed by Xiaofeng. She herself did not want to worry, yet if the big brother’s family ended up losing money, they would undoubtedly turn to her to borrow. With this in mind, she huffed, "Sister-in-law, I’ve given my advice, and if you don’t want to listen, that’s up to you. But if things get tough later on, don’t come and tell me or Guisheng about it." She had warned them, and if they ended up losing money, it wouldn’t be her fault.
