As the dishes were served one by one, the onlookers and ordinary people alike were drooling with envy.

These dishes are truly a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate. Now, it remains to be seen how Su Xiaoxiao, sitting in the host's seat, will rate them.

Looking at the dishes, Su Xiaoxiao was actually quite satisfied.

Overall, the chefs from Beijing seem different. Their overall quality is higher, and at least the dishes they make look pretty good.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly and then began to taste the dishes.

Her expression said it all; it was pretty good. The dishes looked quite delicious, but Su Xiaoxiao also felt that the chefs here were quite skilled.

Su Xiaoxiao then sampled the dishes prepared by several chefs and found that their skill level was indeed exceptional.

Finally, she called over some local regulars to taste the dishes. Su Xiaoxiao understood one thing: when in Rome, do as the Romans do; the dishes she made had to suit the tastes of Beijingers.

When these regular customers saw that Boss Su was really giving them face, they also came over to let Su Xiaoxiao taste the dishes.

Su Xiaoxiao encouraged them to try it freely and to express their opinions.

Because these people had a pretty good relationship with Su Xiaoxiao, they offered a lot of suggestions to each of the chefs.

Su Xiaoxiao felt that there seemed to be some truth to it, and at least some of the suggestions were very constructive.

Based on their feedback, Su Xiaoxiao began selecting head chefs. These chefs all prepared dishes with excellent taste, but they also had to meet Su Xiaoxiao's most basic criteria for judging food.

It's not just about making sure the food looks, smells, and tastes good. The chefs learned a lot from the few suggestions Su Xiaoxiao casually made.

After hearing Su Xiaoxiao's advice, the chefs immediately understood.

Of course, in the end, Su Xiaoxiao also conducted background checks on the chefs and finally selected three head chefs.

After the training, time flew by, and half a month later, the restaurant was already renovated.

Su Xiaoxiao gave the restaurant a particularly elegant name: Moon Bay.

With everything ready, the restaurant opened and many guests arrived.

Those were all regular customers who had come to support Su Xiaoxiao's restaurant when it opened, and most of them were very supportive of Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao gave them all a discount, but these guests weren't short of money.

They are usually quite wealthy, and after the restaurant opens, even the same food will increase in price a little.

Upon entering and seeing the restaurant's decor, it certainly lived up to its price.

Many diners have said before that Su Xiaoxiao's food is so delicious that it's a real shame she only runs a small food stall.

Pei Yuan stood in the crowd, gazing at the bustling restaurant not far away.

The worry in his eyes had completely disappeared.

Su Xiaoxiao was busy working in the restaurant and had no idea that Pei Yuan had arrived.

Pei Yuan had been back in the capital for some time now. Actually, it was just a coincidence that a servant bought a skewer of fish balls from Su Xiaoxiao's snack stall that day.

Pei Yuan smelled a familiar scent, which he found strange. For the first time ever, he asked a servant for some fish balls, took a bite, and immediately asked where the servant had bought them.

The servants took Pei Yuan directly to the street where Su Xiaoxiao had her stall. When Pei Yuan saw Su Xiaoxiao in the crowd, he almost squeezed through the crowd and immediately went to Su Xiaoxiao's side to say, "I missed you so much."

But he still didn't do that, agreeing not to bother each other after the breakup.

Besides, he has already divorced Su Xiaoxiao and has someone else by his side.

Since Su Xiaoxiao now seems to have someone else by her side, Pei Yuan doesn't dare to easily go over and meet with her.

Today is the opening of Su Xiaoxiao's new store. Pei Yuan came over immediately after learning about it. He brought a few subordinates with him to see if Su Xiaoxiao's new store encountered any trouble during the opening, and if there were any people who wanted to take advantage of the situation, he could send someone to help resolve it.

He hadn't expected so many people to come to Su Xiaoxiao's restaurant opening.

The three-story restaurant was already full.

The shop assistants and general helpers were constantly running around the shop, attending to the customers.

Fortunately, Su Xiaoxiao had trained the staff very well beforehand, so although everyone was busy, things didn't seem chaotic.

The service was orderly, with dishes being served in an orderly manner, and every servant and waiter wearing a smile, providing excellent service.

Su Xiaoxiao observed the men she had hired and was quite satisfied.

And so the first day of business ended. Su Xiaoxiao looked at her account book and was almost overjoyed.

At this rate, she'll be able to recoup her investment in the restaurant's renovations in just a few days.

The few days before the business opened caused Su Xiaoxiao a lot of worry.

She was afraid that if business outside the restaurant wasn't good, and she couldn't use so many people, wouldn't all her efforts have been in vain?

Unexpectedly, the people they hired even felt it wasn't enough.

The second day after opening was just as busy as ever, like fighting a battle every day.

Su Xiaoxiao felt quite happy, as she was worried that the issue of turnover would no longer exist.

Every day, I hear customers praising the food, saying, "This restaurant is still as delicious as ever!"

"Yes, their cooking is as delicious as ever."

"I'm the most qualified to speak on this. I've been eating here since they were just running a food stall. It's only natural that their business is good."

Su Xiaoxiao was always happy whenever she overheard so many compliments.

Little did she know that the restaurant was so peaceful.

Pei Yuan has already sent people to keep watch outside for several days, just in case someone comes to deliberately cause trouble for Su Xiaoxiao.

Of course, these busy things are quite worrying.

Su Xiaoxiao has happy moments, but she inevitably experiences anxiety at times as well.

Su Xiaoxiao now wants to go to the capital as soon as possible to meet the Emperor and get Qian Musheng out of prison.

If she couldn't see the Emperor, she decided to finish up her business at the restaurant.

She went to Qian Musheng's house in person to find out what had happened.

Baihua Village also sent a letter to Su Xiaoxiao these past few days.

Construction on the village school is about to begin. Su Xiaoxiao had previously donated money and books in the hope of improving education in Baihua Village.

Everyone should be able to completely escape illiteracy, at least they should be able to recognize a few characters, not just a few large characters.

Qian Musheng's affairs were quite complicated, so Su Xiaoxiao took some time to go home these past few days.

Su Pingan also came over; he also knew about Qian Musheng's situation.

Su Ping'an felt quite sorry for Qian Musheng, thinking that if Qian Musheng were really wronged and died like this, the world would lose another good person.
