The customer nodded in agreement as Gu Zi's tone took on a serious note. She stated solemnly, "I am deeply grateful for your informing me of this matter. As a partner in this shop, I assure you all that we only use legitimate ingredients for our braised meat. We absolutely do not add any substances like poppy flowers to deceive our customers' taste buds."
Lin Cheng and Lin Hun entered, carrying a box of meat. Upon hearing Gu Zi's words, they set the box down. Lin Cheng's expression turned somber as he began, "Actually, we came here to discuss this very matter. Lin Hun, you tell her."
Lin Hun wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, his voice filled with indignation. "Sister-in-law, I ran into one of my old followers today when I left Little Lin Village. The guy was spouting nonsense, claiming that our braised meat shop uses poppy flowers to enhance the flavor of our meat. I punched him right then and there, nearly flattening him."
