Chapter 83 Granny Cui Has a Secret

Where is Zhao Shi?
After hanging up the phone, I breathed a sigh of relief, as if a worry had been put to rest.

It was not until today that his thoughts finally became clear.

Because of him, his parents could never hold their heads up in the village. If it were other things, it would be fine, but his illness changed everything when it spread throughout the village.

What is trapped by love?

What got kicked?
What do you mean you want to marry someone, but they don't agree, and you're going crazy?
What about now? My parents finally don’t have to hide from people anymore.

In the days to come, manage the other world well.

I had been planning to drive home after a while, but now that I have a house, there is no rush on this matter.

This is what parents mean too.

During this time, they stayed in their hometown to rebuild their house and repair their ancestral tomb.
On the Blue Star, when it gets dark, the sky in the other world just gets bright.

Zhao Shi came to the other world again. When he came, the people who were sleeping in the tavern had already left, and the people in the embroidery workshop had already started to work one after another.

In front of Zhao Shi's tablet was a large jar filled with wood ash.

When everyone came, they brought with them a stick of incense. The first thing they did when entering the Zhao family was to worship Zhao Shi, and then they started to work.

No one can go wrong with this.

The Zhao family had already shown their sincerity yesterday, and all the embroidery payments were made in cash.

Therefore, after work yesterday, many people went to the butcher stall to buy a few pounds of meat so that their family members could also see the meat. After all, this money was unexpected wealth for them.

When everyone had finished offering incense, Jiang Linger lit the incense to invite the gods. Seeing Zhao Shi looking at the large vat in front of the tablet, she explained, "Brother Shi, the large vat was moved here by Erniu's wife. Her daughter-in-law is just like him. She can do any job except touching a needle! She will stay at our house and cook for the children. Don't we have to open a night tavern? They will help too!"

He plans to serve hot pot in the pub.

This is the result of his careful consideration.

After all, Ling'er and her daughter's cooking skills were average, and this tavern used to only sell beans and ready-made meals, and did not sell any stir-fried dishes.

Although Zhao Shi has superb cooking skills, he cannot display them in this world.

In the end, I had no choice but to choose hot pot, which saves time and effort.

Especially in the night tavern, it is even simpler. You don’t need anyone to take care of you. You can just take the meat and eat it yourself.

"Homeowner!"

"Homeowner!"

"Master Zhao!"

"Noble man!"

As they were talking, the two came out of the ancestral hall. Jiang Linger was holding an incense burner with incense sticks in her hand. When she saw Zhao Shi, Granny Cui and her family hurried over to greet him respectfully. The other women who were chattering and doing needlework also stood up and saluted Zhao Shi when they heard Granny Cui's words.

"Granny Cui, you are the family's provider, there's no need to be so polite!" Zhao Shi returned the greeting and said.

Zhao Shi now only admired Granny Cui. Yesterday, he didn't think much of Granny Cui, even if she embroidered tribute. Facing the dazzling array of clothes on Blue Star, he was probably just average. But after Mrs. Lin's performance of Fengwu Jiutian yesterday, he finally understood what a pinnacle work was, especially a tribute, which was not something that ordinary people could imagine.

From the beginning to the end, Zhao Shi and those masters didn't know how the hundred birds in the last form, "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", appeared.

Several old ladies checked it carefully.

There was nothing else mixed on the phoenix bridal cape except the red background and the golden phoenix.

In this era of information explosion, with countless heritage materials available for inquiry, it is truly astonishing that we still haven't found the reason why "Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix".

Especially Old Lady Lin, she had seen the phoenix shawl that appeared thirty years ago. That piece was the work of the last master of Suzhou embroidery. It is also the only pinnacle work in the embroidery world today and can be called a masterpiece. However, that phoenix shawl can only show eight forms of the phoenix.

Don't underestimate the difference in form. The difficulty is not a little different, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a chasm.

This shows how difficult it is to get a hundred birds to pay homage to the phoenix, and it also shows the strength of this Grandma Cui.

"Master, etiquette cannot be abolished. What's more, I am an old woman and don't deserve the master's etiquette!" Seeing Zhao Shi saluting, Granny Cui quickly dodged to the side.

"I deserve it. Of course I deserve it. Just for the sake of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix, I deserve it!" Zhao Shi said with a smile.

"what!"

Granny Cui exclaimed when she heard this, and looked at Zhao Shi in surprise, saying, "The head of the family also knows about the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix? Are you also from the Xiu Clan?"

"What is Xiumen?" Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

After hearing what Zhao Shi said, Granny Cui knew that she had thought too much. But since he knew about the story of the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, it was obvious that this nobleman or his family was not an ordinary person. Granny Cui glanced at Jiang Linger and said, "This Xiumen Sect is just a sect established by a group of embroiderers to save their lives!"

Granny Cui didn't want to say more, and Zhao Shi didn't ask any more questions. Everyone has their own secrets, and as long as it doesn't affect him and Ling'er, Zhao Shi won't bother or explore them.

What's more, he is just an ancestor spirit now, and he is powerless even if he wants to explore.

Although Jiang Linger didn't understand what the two were talking about, she could hear a little bit, but she didn't say anything, just smiled.

Although she didn't know what the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix was, it was definitely related to yesterday's embroidery. Maybe other families didn't know the secrets of these embroidery, but what about her own man? As a royal family, there must be someone in the family who knows these things. After all, the phoenix cape was made as a tribute to the queen, so naturally some of the secrets would be told, and it is not impossible that it has been passed down in the family.

But Zhao Shi is even more mysterious in Grandma Cui's eyes.

Even in the Xiumen, not everyone knows how to display the phoenix cape. Only those above the level of elders can master it, and it is only circulated among the upper echelons of the Xiumen.

Ordinary people or ordinary disciples of Xiumen do not know the secrets of the Phoenix Cape.

Where is Zhao Shi?
Is it possible to show the scene of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix?

Then the first few types can definitely be displayed, which makes her think more.

Zhao Shi did not ask or inquire about the secret of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix".

Whether it is Blue Star or the Other World, there are some secrets that people regard as more important than their own lives. This is even more obvious in the Other World. Not to mention the secret of the Phoenix Pei, even a secret recipe for cooking meat is more important than one's own life in the eyes of the people here.

It doesn't matter if one person dies, as long as the secret recipe can be kept, a family can be guaranteed to survive for generations in this chaotic world.

After seeing Zhao Shi and Jiang Ling'er off, Granny Cui sighed softly.

His eyes turned towards the distant city.

Of course, Zhao Shi didn't care about these.

He followed Jiang Linger to the tavern. The tavern had changed a lot today. Two large round tables were placed in the corners of the tavern, and outside them were small tables for one person to sit alone or two people to sit opposite each other. There were also charcoal stoves for hot pot on the tables, but the stoves on the small tables were several sizes smaller.

The only pity is that the copper from the other world is too valuable, and Jiang Ling'er and her daughter can't get it at all, so they can only use an iron pot instead.

"By the way, Ling'er, how's the discussion about the meat going?" Zhao Shi asked.

"The butcher shops in several nearby markets are all owned by Butcher Chen. Mr. Bao was worried that there might be a problem, so he went to discuss it!" Jiang Linger said.

Only then did Zhao Shi breathe a sigh of relief.

There will be no problem if Mr. Bao goes to discuss it.

As a strong man in the Marrow Refining Realm, if he can't even subdue a butcher, then he is a complete failure.

Moreover, ever since he appeared, Butcher Chen and his family have not caused any trouble. It is obvious that someone has taken action or warned Butcher Chen.

At first, Zhao Shi thought it was the Song family martial arts school that did it, but now it seems that it was Bao Ye who did it.

"Starting tonight, no one will be allowed to stay in the tavern. Let's empty the woodshed in Grandma Cui's yard and let them stay there!" After looking around the tavern, Zhao Shi nodded with satisfaction.
