Chapter 259: Giving it to her was a favor, but not an obligation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Since Bai Wutong had already signed an agreement with Sheng Huaixuan, she could not give out the instant noodles recipe casually.

She turned and walked into the house. She took a portion of instant noodles for three people, filled a small jar with some sauce, and handed it to Madam Qu. “Aunt, you don’t have to learn. Take these back and cook them for the children.”

Madam Qu’s mind froze for a moment and she couldn’t help but say, “Madam Bai, can’t you teach me? How can this bit of instant noodles be enough to eat?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s expressions changed.

She had already given it to her, but she was still so greedy.

Madam Qu also realized that she had said something wrong and hurriedly tried to remedy the situation. “Madam Bai’s noodles are so delicious. My grandchildren are greedy and will definitely want to eat them more. Instead of giving me instant noodles, Madam Bai, you might as well teach me. ‘

The more she spoke, the darker Chu Tianbao’s expression became. If not for the fact that Bai Wutong was holding his hand, he would have chased the other party out.

If Madam Qu knew her place, she would stop and take the instant noodles to leave.

Instead, she even insisted that Bai Wutong teach her, as if Bai Wutong had owed her. Her insatiable face was vividly portrayed, making everyone very unhappy.

Since she had already spoken, Madam Qu went all out and continued, “Madam Bai is beautiful and kind. You’re like Bodhisattva descending to the mortal world, so you will definitely be able to teach me, right?”

She thought that she would definitely get what she wanted by flattering her.

However, she had forgotten that if Bai Wutong was someone who could be controlled so easily, the villagers of Lintian Village would not have been reduced to begging Yu Suisheng to increase the selling price of the fruits.

Looking at her expression of greed, Bai Wutong had a complicated expression.

People were selfish. After living a good life, they would want to live a better one.

Bai Wutong shook her head. “I don’t have time. Auntie, you should go back.”

Madam Qu paused and was about to speak when she was frightened by Chu Tianbao’s cold gaze.

It was just an instant noodles recipe, and it was not a big loss to her. So what if she helped poor people like them?

Yet, she suddenly turned hostile. No wonder everyone in Lintian Village said that the Bai Wutong was pretending.

Now that she didn’t want to pretend anymore, she was starting to reveal her true colors and didn’t take the pitiful villagers seriously.

She was just a village woman!

Madam Qu looked embarrassed at being rejected. As she walked back, she complained softly, “How petty.”

Who did she think could not hear her? All the martial arts experts present heard her clearly.

Bai Wutong made a glance and the instant noodles in Madam Qu’s hand were snatched back.

With her hands empty, Madam Qu widened her eyes in disbelief. She could not believe that Bai Wutong would snatch the food back.

After a while, Madam Qu said, “What do you mean, Madam?”

When Bai Wutong spoke, it was as gentle as ever. “I’m being petty.” But there was no warmth in her curved exquisite eyes.

Giving it to her was a favor, but not an obligation.

Since she was already being called petty, why should she give it to her?

Madam Qu looked shocked. She thought that she was speaking very softly and that no one could hear her, but Bai Wutong did.

She pretended to not understand and hurriedly said, “Madam Bai, you heard wrongly. I’m saying that Madam Bai is really kind. The children will be lucky to try it when I go back.”

Only now did Madam Qu feel that she still wanted to bring the instant noodles back and study them!

Bai Wutong smiled, but her words made Madam Qu’s teeth hurt.

“Aunt, taking away the instant noodles is also for your own good.”

Madam Qu’s face turned red with anger. “It’s just three bowls of instant noodles. Can’t I buy them with money?”

The coldness in Chu Tianbao’s body was so cold that it could be used as an air conditioner.

Bai Wutong comforted him with her hand and smiled at Sheng Huaixuan. “Old Master Sheng, tell her how much these three bowls of instant noodles are worth. ”

Sheng Huaixuan stood up elegantly. Madam Qu stood rooted to the ground indignantly. She wanted to see what nonsense he could come up with.

Sheng Huaixuan said slowly, his voice pleasant to the ears, ‘Master Yu has already signed a contract with Madam Bai. Once the mountain sealing order is lifted, Master Yu will send someone to sell instant noodles in the entire Ling Kingdom. Therefore, the noodles that Aunt wants to buy are not ordinary instant noodle. Moreover, Master Yu and Sister-in-law’s business secrets are confidential. If you take the instant noodles away and copy the formula, it will cause an immeasurable loss.’

“According to the approximate population of the Ling Kingdom, if everyone only buys a bowl of instant noodles a year and if the net profit of a bowl of noodles is five copper coins, the annual gross profit is about 100 million taels. Even if everyone gets tired of it, the noodles can be sold for a hundred years. If you want to bring away the noodles, it has to be at least 10 billion taels!’

Sheng Huaixuan narrowed his eyes. “If you can take out 10 billion taels, I believe Master Yu and Sister-in-law will be very happy to sell you the instant noodles.”

Madam Qu had expected him to bluff, but she did not expect him to be able to bluff to this extent!

10 billion taels!

Even if they excavated the gold mine on the Jade Spiritual Mountain, they probably wouldn’t have so much money!

He was deliberately humiliating her!

Mdm Qu glared at Sheng Huaixuan and left angrily.

Cui Lingyi sighed. “1 remember when she first came, she wasn’t like this.”

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “She didn’t do anything wrong. She just wanted to live a good life.”

“She tried her best to fight for it and dared to think and do it. She just used the wrong method.” She even had her eyes set on her.

Cui Lingyi sighed again. “Little Phoenix, what if I’m separated from you? I can’t bear to leave you!”

Whether there was a gold mine on the Jade Spiritual Mountain could be determined the next day. If they sent a messenger pigeon to report to the Imperial Court and after obtaining a response, it would probably be the new year by then.

There was a huge rock in everyone’s hearts. They would no longer be able to enjoy during the New Year.

Bai Wutong smiled. “There will be a way!”

No one realized that the real Yu Huaijie was dead. The living Yu Huaijie was one of theirs now.

If they really needed to move, with You Huaijie’s power, a slight modification should not arouse suspicion.

It was not appropriate to make this matter public. Only Bai Wutong, Chu

Tianbao and Qingfeng knew about this.

Three days later, a group of Marshal Gu’s troops passed by Woqian Town with earth-shattering good news.

After five years, Marshal Gu finally occupied the entire Southern Frontier!

Marshal Gu and Emperor Linghui were good friends since a young age and fought battles together. Everyone gathered and heard rumors from somewhere.

When Marshal Gu was young, he had once touched Emperor Linghui’s woman and was personally caught red-handed by Emperor Linghui. Emperor Linghui did not argue with him. Marshal Gu was grateful and swore to be loyal to Emperor Linghai.

Now that Emperor Linghui was in power and had ascended the throne, everyone was very excited about whether Marshal Gu would be dealt with later.

When Bai Wutong heard this scandal, she smiled and shook her head. Marshal Gu’s only son had died fighting for Emperor Linghui.

Marshal Gu had taken down the Southern Frontier, but he had not returned.

This was enough to prove that the Southern Frontier had yet to truly stabilize.

As long as Emperor Linghui was not dumb, no matter if the rumor was true or not, he definitely wouldn’t dare to kill him..
