Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife
Chapter 1528: 1525: Business is BoomingChapter 1528: Chapter 1525: Business is Booming
Chu Heng extended his chopsticks to serve her some dishes, choosing both meat and vegetables, indeed all dishes that Ye Muyu liked.
Ye Muyu looked at him with a smile: “You should eat more too.”
Saying that, she picked up a chopstick full of stewed pig’s trotters for him, as Chu Heng, due to his martial arts training, preferred meat dishes, and besides that, sweet pastries were also his preference.
Seeing that Ah Yu was serving him dishes he liked, the smile on Chu Heng’s lips wouldn’t fade. He welcomed everything and ate whatever she offered.
Chu Ziluo glanced over quietly, feeling a bit envious and somewhat confused, wondering if she could find a husband that she liked and who liked her back, just like her parents.
Ye Muyu knew that Chu Heng was about to go out for work again, but she did not interrupt this warm atmosphere.
The hour had come.
The guard who had been waiting outside had already urged him once.
Ye Muyu stood up following his steps, personally fastening the waistband for him, leaned close to his lips, with a voice full of affection: “Come back early, we’ll be waiting for you at home.”
“Okay, I will.” Chu Heng reached out to cup her face and gently caressed it, already reluctant to leave her.
Ye Muyu noticed the grievance and reluctance in his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh, stood on tiptoe, and placed a kiss.
“Alright, hurry up and go.” Ye Muyu patted his shoulder encouragingly.
Seeing that it was not early anymore, Chu Heng sighed lightly, pinched her face, and then turned to walk outside.
Before leaving, he paused in front of Chu Ziluo and said, “If Prince Rong asks you to relay a message to your mother, you agree.”
“Huh?” Chu Ziluo nodded blankly.
After watching her father leave, she finally reacted, surprised, and mumbled to herself: Isn’t Brother Zhongjin already under confinement? Relaying a message to mother? Could it be asking for mother’s help?
No, that doesn’t fit Brother Zhongjin’s character either.
Chu Ziluo thought hard for a long time and still couldn’t understand her father’s meaning, but much later she made a bold guess that Brother Zhongjin might have some connection with her father.
Judging from her father’s expression, it didn’t seem like he encountered anything difficult to resolve, so she didn’t need to be too nervous.
Ye Muyu was nearby and also heard what Chu Heng said.
She pondered the sentence in her mind and quickly understood its implied meaning, but did not voice it out.
After Chu Heng left.
Ye Muyu resumed her work of raising kids and operating the shop.
The acquired Zhang Tieniu and others were arranged into the shop, where various cakes and yogurt that had been prepared early on were the main products for sale.
On the opening day, the shop directly launched a buy-one-get-one promotion.
With Zhang Tieniu and Zhang Yunlin standing at the shop entrance beating gongs to promote.
Within less than an hour, the shop was jam-packed with customers.
The prices were moderate, and the soft milky aroma of the pastries attracted many children and women, and even many filial juniors bought quite a few back home to honor their elders.
The pastries of this era were rather dry and solid, paired with a pot of hot tea that could be enjoyed for quite a while.
These were meant to be savored.
While the cakes were evidently a fast-consumption item, they may not be liked by scholars but had a quite extensive customer base.
“Hey, I had the luck to taste these pastries in Jiangnan before, and I didn’t expect to find them in the capital now. Are you also a branch of Xie Family pastries?”
Hearing this, Zhang Tieniu froze for a moment, shook his head: “No, we are He’an Shop.”
The shopkeeper just happened to come out and overheard this, and smilingly explained: “Xie Family used to collaborate with our master, so everyone can rest assured.”
