After the fuss caused by Xiao Linshuang, everyone’s doubts about the stinky tofu had somewhat dissipated.

Returning to the matter at hand, Lin Yuan rearranged her emotions and smiled again, "Ladies and gentlemen, just now my sister and I have personally verified that the food from our Fuman Building is absolutely clean and sanitary.

I believe some of you may still have doubts, so today, I have invited all the chefs from our Fuman Building here to put your minds at ease. "

It was not until this moment that the chefs finally understood why they had been suddenly called out from the kitchen.

At Lin Yuan’s signal, Chef Wang was the first to step forward and began eating a piece of stinky tofu. Since he had made the tofu himself, he was naturally assured of its quality.

With the first one leading, the other chefs followed suit, each eating a piece. Although they had already seen Chef Wang making stinky tofu in the kitchen before, it was indeed their first time eating it. Some even chuckled and picked up two pieces to eat.

Shopkeeper Liu also came forward and ate a piece of stinky tofu after the last chef had finished.

Lin Yuan nodded with a smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our chefs have also tasted it one by one, do you still have any concerns?"

If the owner, shopkeeper, the owner’s family, and all the chefs had eaten it, what doubts could remain? If the stinky tofu was really made from the disgusting stuff in the Toilet Barrel, could they still eat it so nonchalantly?

People began to consider this in their minds.

Ma Xiaonan was the first to shout out, "No more, no more! Boss Lin and Shopkeeper Liu have personally verified it, there must be no problem! Such delicious food, I don’t know who the black-hearted person is who insists on defaming Fuman Building!"

"Isn’t it? I have been eating at Fuman Building for many years and have never experienced stomach pains, which shows that Fuman Building is definitely cooking with conscience and doing business with integrity.

If someone is talking nonsense, it must be because they’re jealous of Fuman Building’s good business and want to maliciously slander it! "

Shopkeeper Liu recognized the person who spoke. He had been supporting Fuman Building for many years. Although his business in Zhuma Town was not well-known, he was honest and straightforward, leaving a very good impression on Shopkeeper Liu.

"Thank you, Brother Wang!" Shopkeeper Liu bowed his hands and expressed his thanks from a distance.

The man known as Brother Wang also returned the gesture with a fist-bump, "Shopkeeper Liu is too kind. I merely spoke a fair word."

With the support of these two individuals, coupled with Fuman Building’s excellent reputation over the years, everyone’s doubts were finally completely dispelled, and they echoed the sentiment.

Lin Yuan’s lips curved into a smile, and her sharp eyes swept over the crowd. There were still a few people stubbornly resisting, but they were like grasshoppers after the harvest, unable to bounce around for much longer.

The people Lin Yuan had arranged beforehand to stand by were also very discreetly surrounding these individuals, isolating them from the other customers. Without these people maliciously stirring things up, the situation was developing in the direction Lin Yuan had hoped for.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the Lantern Festival, and other than introducing new dishes, our Fuman Building also has various activities," Lin Yuan said with a smile, leaving everyone hanging.

Activities?

Crowds were successfully piqued with curiosity, inquiring about the activities. It wasn’t surprising they were eager; Fuman Building was too appealing. If they could, like the man who had just eaten the stinky tofu, get a chance to eat for free, how wonderful that would be!

Lin Yuan gently raised her hand to signal silence and then continued, "All customers who dine in our restaurant tonight and spend a total of 20 taels of silver per table can participate in our riddle-guessing activity. Those who guess correctly can spin the prize wheel. The wheel is set with various prizes, including sweet dumplings, stinky tofu, our Fuman Building’s special Four Joys Fortune Bag series dishes, and various amounts of silver taels.

Of course, the top prize is a free meal regardless of how much you spend at our Fuman Building.

If you spin the free meal, tonight’s food is on us, and we won’t charge you a Wen! "

There were riddles to guess, prizes to win, and most tantalizing, the potential of dining for free!

"Wow, that’s wonderful!" Ma Xiaonan’s eyes lit up as she tugged persistently at Ma Junying’s arm, heading towards Fuman Building, "Quick, quick, there won’t be space inside soon!"

"Sure, sure!" Ma Junying replied again and again, but his eyes kept drifting towards the figure on the stage, as this woman always managed to pleasantly surprise him.
