Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 1127 - 1129: Filling in for Chef Jiang

"That Young Mrs. Guo is really lucky!"

"Isn’t she? Speaking of big family businesses, who doesn’t marry several wives."

"..."

"..."

Everyone continued chatting; Li Fugui found it a bit baffling that a bunch of n in the kitchen were gossiping.

He wasn’t particularly interested in this gossip.

Just then, Xiao’er rushed in, frantically, "Sothing’s wrong, sothing’s wrong."

Hearing this, everyone simultaneously looked at the waiter.

Xiao’er turned to Chef Jiang and said, "Chef Jiang, your son ca and said your mother is critically ill. He wants you to go back quickly. Your son is waiting outside for you."

"What?" Hearing the news of his mother’s critical condition, Chef Jiang wobbled, and an assistant chef had to support him.

Everyone was surprised to hear about Chef Jiang’s mother’s condition, "Chef Jiang, you should hurry back."

"Yes, yes." Chef Jiang agreed without hesitation and dashed out.

After Chef Jiang left, the kitchen staff continued talking about how tough Chef Jiang’s family situation was.

Monts later, soone exclaid, "Oh no, Chef Jiang has gone ho. Who will go to the Guo Mansion this afternoon? It’s not acceptable to stand them up."

"How about, Li, you go?"

"I can’t. I don’t know as many dishes as Chef Jiang does. I’m afraid if I go to the Guo Mansion, they’ll pick faults, and we’ll ruin our reputation."

"Then how about sending two people?"

"That’s not feasible. If we send more people, who will cook at Yuelai Restaurant?"

"Oh dear, what should we do then?"

The kitchen staff was troubled since the Yuelai Restaurant’s dishes weren’t managed by just one head chef. Each chef had their signature dishes. Chef Jiang, being seasoned, had a wide repertoire of dishes and was the designated chef for the Guo Mansion.

If soone else was sent temporarily, it certainly wouldn’t do.

In principle, Yuelai Restaurant’s chefs weren’t allowed to take on private jobs, but so wealthy families specifically requested dishes from Yuelai Restaurant at ho, and sotis exceptions were made to maintain good relations.

While everyone was in difficulty, Li Fugui spoke up, "Why don’t I go in place of Chef Jiang?"

Hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up, "Ah, right! How could we forget about Head Chef Li? If Head Chef Li goes, it would be a blessing for the Guo family’s young mistress. Not just anyone can hire Head Chef Li."

"Exactly, Head Chef Li is the best chef in the world."

"Yes, he is."

Everyone was thrilled but also worried, "Head Chef Li, will the timing be okay if you go in place of Chef Jiang?"

Li Fugui nodded, "It will be fine. Everyone, don’t worry. I’ll go on behalf of Chef Jiang."

At this mont, Xiao’er ran over again, "What to do, what to do?"

"What’s wrong now?" Xiao’er rushed in repeatedly, causing everyone to feel apprehensive.

Xiao’er spoke up, "The Guo family’s carriage is already at the door to pick up Chef Jiang, but Chef Jiang just went ho. What should we do? We can’t explain this to the Guo family."

Faced with Xiao’er’s words, everyone sighed in relief, "No need to worry, it’s resolved. Head Chef Li said he’ll go in place of Chef Jiang."

"Really? That’s great. Then, Head Chef Li, co with . The Guo family is waiting," Xiao’er said happily.

Li Fugui then followed Xiao’er out of the kitchen and boarded the Guo family’s carriage at the entrance.
