*Cough cough*, getting back to the point, she just wanted to nurture a pot of marinade because she craved authentic soy sauce-marinated duck.
Since coming here, the seasonings were very basic, lacking even chicken bouillon; she'd grown utterly tired of it.
The beautiful proprietress told her the method for preparing the marinade because she wanted her twin sons to learn Taekwondo from Qiao Duo'er.
Keeping a marinade is a patient affair; it took about six months to cultivate a pot, and most importantly, the key was the recipe—without it, everything was in vain.
Therefore, the proprietress wasn't worried about Qiao Duo'er stealing her craft.
However, Qiao Duo'er had been a special agent, with a keen sense of taste, and could approximately guess the seasonings used just by tasting.
Amen, she was thankful for the proprietress, thankful that she had once been a special agent.
Maintaining a marinade was a hassle, and she had not been inclined to bother with it in her past life.
