Ning Fengnian was stunned by the tragic state on his brother’s face and did not know what to say for a moment. Second Uncle Ning continued, “Even if you don’t care about me, your half-brother, it’s not good to ignore your parents, right?”
“Can you bear to live a good life and watch your parents suffer and be beaten?”

She listened to the many footsteps that were rapidly approaching outside the courtyard and said calmly, “Second Uncle, your words are interesting. It’s as if my father is unfilial if he doesn’t take over this mess. 1 want to ask you, why did you hide your own recipe but use my family’s things to repay your debt?” Second Uncle Ning complained incessantly. Where could he get a recipe? The things made according to his recipe were placed in the courtyard of the old residence, but would they accept them?
He wanted to put on the airs of an elder with a straight face, but he cried out in pain when he pulled at his wound.
Xiaoxiao smiled again. “What did you say when I asked Second Uncle and Grandma back then?”
She looked at the two of them and said calmly, “Second Uncle said that your business has nothing to do with us. He even warned us not to swindle others in the name of the old residence. Grandma, you said that you made this bamboo shoot yourself and it has nothing to do with our family. You even said that if I mention this again, you’ll tear my mouth apart.”
Second Uncle Ning had a bitter expression on his face. He had really shot himself in the foot. He couldn’t go back on his word and say that he didn’t remember them today because the villagers who had heard those words had already crowded around the village chief.
Although Fortune Village was small, it was united enough. Dozens of young and strong men rolled up their sleeves and squeezed into the courtyard with fierce expressions. The scene was really scary. Ning Fengnian thanked the village chief, and Ning Erlang quickly explained the matter.
The village chief frowned and looked at the old residence. His impression of this family was really terrible now. He was willing to help his villagers not be bullied by outsiders, but that had to be on the premise that it was reasonable. Who could Ning Fengcai blame for courting death?
“Since the matter has been made clear and there’s a contract as evidence, Fengcai, compensate them with the recipe and let them do it themselves.” Was there a need to make such a simple matter like this?
He looked at Wang Biao disapprovingly. “You are already shouting and smashing things the moment you come up. You even brought such a large group of people to the house of unrelated people to cause trouble. Do you think that there’s no one in our Fortune Village?”
As if to reflect the weight of these words, the young and strong men he brought collectively took a step forward and glared at him fiercely. Even someone like Wang Biao, who was used to doing shameless work, was frightened by this scene and took a step back. Then, he looked at Second Uncle Ning unhappily.

Second Uncle Ning broke out in cold sweat under so many pairs of eyes, but he still gritted his teeth and did not say anything.
Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and added fuel to the fire. “Looks like Second Uncle can’t bear to part with it?”
Second Uncle Ning held it in for a long time before saying, “I don’t have a recipe.”
Xiaoxiao chuckled. “How is that possible? He already said that the taste of the bamboo shoots you sent to the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant is very normal. The fact that it can be successfully made by them means that there’s no problem with the recipe. The bamboo shoots you gave later might not be good enough because your skills are not good enough. Let them study the recipe. They might be able to make it.”
Second Uncle Ning couldn’t find any words to refute. Wang Biao immediately waved the contract in his hand. “If you don’t give me the recipe, you’ll compensate us!”
The shopkeeper actually didn’t care if these two Ning Family members were colluding on purpose or had an internal conflict. What he wanted was just to get the recipe for sour bamboo shoots, so he specially set the compensation at an extremely high price.
As expected, Second Uncle Ning’s expression twisted the next moment—it was impossible to compensate him. It was so much for 50 taels. How could he afford it? No, even if he could, he didn’t want to fork out this unjust money! It was all Big Brother’s fault for being petty. It was just a lousy recipe. He treated it like a treasure and refused to help him. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He immediately raised his head and glared at his Big Brother.
This useless piece of trash!
