From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

”Miss Shuangshuang—” Housekeeper Liu saw that Mu Shuangshuang didn’t speak for a long time, so he asked.

”What’s the matter?” Mu Shuangshuang looked up at Housekeeper Liu.

”What is your intention? What price do you want to go?”

The Liu Family is affluent, so Housekeeper Liu immediately uses money to pressure Mu Shuangshuang.

If it were her in the past, she might have been apprehensive of the Liu Family.

But now, her restaurant is also the largest in the town.

Moreover, she has business collaborations with the County Magistrate’s son.

If truly compared, even with the deep foundations of the Liu Family, it may not be enough to compete with her.

”I don’t need money!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”And besides, I don’t cook much now! If Housekeeper Liu is really looking for someone, I can let the head chef of my restaurant spare half a day to cook for the Liu Family’s eldest daughter’s wedding! However, the price won’t be cheap either!” Mu Shuangshuang chuckled.

”Miss Shuangshuang, our lady said that no one else will do but you! She also mentioned that the dessert you made for her birthday last time was especially delicious, and she wants to book it again this time!” Housekeeper Liu said.

”Then there’s no way!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”Do you mean you won’t go?” asked Mu Qingqing from the side.

”It’s not that I won’t go, but I don’t have the time or energy! I’ve been traveling recently, and I always feel exhausted.

The Liu Family is large and has many people, if I were to handle the cooking alone, the hardship is obvious!” Mu Shuangshuang frowned.

Not to mention she has no time, even if she had, she wouldn’t cook for the Liu Family, who’ve schemed against her.

”This... Miss Shuangshuang, you should reconsider! Let’s not just mention that our Liu Family is the richest in town. The Sun Family alone and their connections in the county make it so ordinary folk can’t afford to offend them!”

Housekeeper Liu’s words were polite, but he used money, power, and status to pressure Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang is not someone who likes to be controlled.

After hearing Housekeeper Liu’s words, she was even more determined not to cook at Mu Qingqing’s wedding feast.

”Housekeeper Liu, what you just said has nothing to do with me! I really don’t have time, and if you insist on using power to pressure me, then I can only say, I will fight to the end!”

After Mu Shuangshuang said this, she called to a follower: ”See the guest out!”

”You...” Housekeeper Liu was infuriated.

”Are you really not going!?” Housekeeper Liu asked.

”Of course!” Mu Shuangshuang nodded.

”Housekeeper, didn’t I say, it was a wrong decision for my mother to let us come here, let’s leave quickly! It’s not worth coming to this place!” Mu Qingqing said with disdain.

”Not coming? I hope Miss Qingqing remembers what you said and never step foot into my Chengfeng Restaurant again!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”Not coming means not coming; do you think I want to! Housekeeper, let’s go!”

Mu Qingqing urged.

Housekeeper Liu, also looking aggrieved, left angrily with Mu Qingqing.

As soon as Mu Qingqing left, the other followers came crowding in.

”Owner, who are these people, why are they so rude?”

”Owner, that woman looked familiar to me, and so did the man; I feel like I’ve seen them somewhere!”

”They are quite unreasonable, to actually... to actually...”

The followers were a bit agitated, and Mu Shuangshuang, fearing it might affect their enthusiasm for the evening work, explained.

”The man is the steward of the Liu Family in town! You might have seen him at Mrs. Liu’s birthday banquet, but it’s been so long, forgetting is normal!

As for that girl, she is my cousin! She is now Mrs. Liu’s adopted daughter, and this time, Housekeeper Liu came to me wanting me to be the head chef for my cousin’s wedding!”

”What? Having the cousin prepare the wedding feast for her cousin? That’s too harsh!” Da Mu, the follower, said.

”Exactly, our owner isn’t a chef who’s specifically here to cook! Why should our owner do the cooking?”

”I think they were just bullying you, owner! Owner, don’t go; we’ll work harder and earn just as much as the Liu Family!”

The followers refused to let Mu Shuangshuang go.

Mu Shuangshuang herself didn’t want to go.

She said: ”I refused! But knowing the Liu Family as I do, this won’t be the end! From today, everyone stay alert, the kitchen is a restricted area, no idle people allowed!

Also, regarding hygiene issues, take your time washing the dishes, but make sure they’re cleaned thoroughly as I taught you!

Also, don’t quarrel with the guests, if you can’t solve it, find me or Yu, the steward, understood?”

”We understand!”

...

Liu Family—

Housekeeper Liu reported every word of Mu Shuangshuang to Mrs. Liu.

With Mu Qingqing’s additional embellishments, Mrs. Liu’s expression was not pleasant.

”Mother, let’s just not invite her, find someone else! She’s too proud.” Mu Qingqing, in front of Mrs. Liu, seemed more docile and submissive.

Gone was the overbearing and arrogant demeanor.

”Does she really not put my Liu Family or the Sun Family in her eyes?” Mrs. Liu asked.

”Yes, these are what I heard with my own ears, that young woman is quite capable, saying she will fight us to the end!” Housekeeper Liu said.

He only described how Mu Shuangshuang was, without mentioning a word of what he said himself.

Mu Qingqing couldn’t wait for Mu Shuangshuang to be troubled and certainly didn’t mention Housekeeper Liu’s words.

Mrs. Liu looked outside, beneath the lush green shade, and her eyes were deep and intimidating.

No one has ever refused her so thoroughly, and even wanted to fight to the end.

Do they really think she is just a figurehead, do they really think she doesn’t dare to act?

”Mother, I think... we should show her who’s the boss, otherwise she will never understand her place!

She will always think that opening a shabby restaurant makes her superior!” Mu Qingqing said.

”Qingqing, do you have any good ideas on how to deal with your cousin?” Mrs. Liu asked.

”I don’t have any great ideas, just get a few people to cause trouble, flip her tables, and prevent her from doing business, then she’ll naturally know who calls the shots in this town!” Mu Qingqing said.

Mrs. Liu’s face twisted into an insidious smile, she nodded and said: ”If that’s the case, I’ll leave this to Housekeeper Liu, make sure that girl learns her place!

Additionally, Housekeeper Liu, prepare three more shops as dowry for Qing, the Sun Family promised me that once Qing gets married, they would relocate to the county! Since they are going to the county, there will be places where money is needed!”

Hearing about the increase in her dowry, the ferocious and twisted face of Mu Qingqing due to Mu Shuangshuang’s matter, instantly changed into a gentle and obedient smile.

”Thank you, Mother!”

”Silly child, there’s no need for thanks among family! It’s getting late, hurry and follow Zhang Xiu Ni to learn some needlework, you’ll have to embroider your own wedding dress!” Mrs. Liu said with a smile.
