Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Qingyu prepared sugarcane juice. Sugarcane was usually bought to refine sugar. It was a very expensive plant, but in order to give her daughter a treat, Li Qingyu was very willing to buy some home.

The sugarcane juice had been prepared long ago. After Chu Qingyue went downstairs, she heard Li Qingyu’s words and went to the kitchen to pour three cups.

After drinking the sugarcane juice, Chu Qingzhi introduced Lin Wanning to everyone.

Seeing that the Chu family was so friendly, Lin Wanning slowly became less restrained. “Aunt Chu, sorry to disturb you.”

Li Qingyu waved his hand and smiled. “No, no. The village is not like your city. As long as you don’t mind.”

Lin Wanning quickly said, “I like it very much. Everything here is beautiful.”

Li Qingyu said kindly, “Then you’re welcome to come to Aunt Chu’s house often in the future.”

Lin Wanning smiled and nodded. “Ok.”

After resting for a while, Ning Yuting and Chu Qingyue went upstairs to talk in private. Chu Qingzhi went out for a walk, and Lin Wanning followed her curiously.

Lin Wanning looked around. She was the same as when Wu Yaqing first came to the village. She was filled with curiosity. “Sister Qingzhi, the village is different from what I imagined.”

Chu Qingzhi tilted her head. “What did you think it was like?”

Lin Wanning said honestly, “It’s very dirty and tattered. The villagers are not easy to get along with…”

Chu Qingzhi laughed.

When they arrived at the old house, Chu Qingzhi looked at the beautiful figure standing at the door and arranging the delivery. She waved and shouted, “Ruyue.”

Shen Ruyue looked up in surprise. “Qingzhi.” She lifted her skirt and ran towards Chu Qingzhi. “When did you come back?”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Just now. I came to look for you after resting at home for a while. Where’s brother?”

Shen Ruyue said, “Xuhua went to discuss business. He might only be back in the evening.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “How’s business recently?”

“It’s not bad, especially the rice dumplings. I’ve doubled the size of the rice dumpling workshop. Now, our rice dumplings have been sold to the fifth county. Many families have ordered rice dumplings for their banquets. Everyone says that it’s delicious.”

“Young Master Tan has doubled the order for bread and biscuits. I’m preparing to build a workshop.”

“The Hongyan Restaurant, Fuyuan Restaurant, and Binhong Restaurant have each ordered 200 grilled sausages a day. There are also some restaurants that want to book, but we can’t make that much. I rejected them for the time being.” “Some breakfast places in three counties. That adds up to five hundred sandwiches ordered a day.”

Chu Qingzhi was a little surprised that the family’s business was doing so well. “Ruyue, well done.”

Shen Ruyue pulled Chu Qingzhi to the side with a smile and said happily, “We have twelve thousand taels of silver in savings.”

That much? Chu Qingzhi was pleasantly surprised. “Our Ruyue is really good at managing the business.”

Shen Ruyue smiled shyly. “It’s because the products you made are the best. Otherwise, no matter how good I am at managing, I can’t make money.”

After the two women flattered each other, Chu Qingzhi happily went to the beer workshop.

Lin Wanning was a little envious of Chu Qingzhi and Shen Ruyue’s relationship. It was obvious that the two of them were close sisters. She did not have any good sisters. She had been alone since she was young. Her younger sister had been instigated by her stepmother and was not close to her since she was young. Every time she made a friend, her younger sister would snatch her away.

“Yaqing, Yujun,” Chu Qingzhi shouted.

After Shen Ruyue brought Hong Yujun home, Hong Yujun began to build the workshop. Now that the construction of the workshop was nearing its end, including the renovation and installation of equipment, they could start brewing wine tomorrow.

Wu Yaqing got along well with everyone. In less than ten days, she had become good friends with Hong Yujun and was now helping her.

This girl was energetic every day and was full of energy in everything she was doing. She was very likable.

When the two of them heard Chu Qingzhi’s words, they immediately walked out of the workshop.

Wu Yaqing was more excited. She rushed out and hugged Chu Qingzhi. “You’re finally back. If you hadn’t come back, I would have gone to the capital to look for you.”

Chu Qingzhi gently stroked the hair on Wu Yaqing’s back and said jokingly, “Looks like you really need a husband.”

Wu Yaqing blushed and let go of Chu Qingzhi. She pretended to be serious and said, “You’re right, but he’s always hiding and not letting me find him. I’m helpless too.”

Chu Qingzhi was amused. “How about I find you a fortune teller to read your fortune?”

Wu Yaqing said seriously, “That’s a good idea. The next time that fortune teller comes to the village, you must tell me.”

Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but smile.

Hong Yujun walked over and bowed politely. “Greetings, Miss Chu.”

Chu Qingzhi’s gaze landed on Hong Yujun. She was wearing a simple outfit, a narrow-sleeved pink dress that accentuated her slender figure. She was wearing a red jade pearl hairpin and a pair of red jade earrings. It made her face glow, giving off a good impression.

Chu Qingzhi smiled at Hong Yujun and said with concern, “It’s been hard on you.”

Hong Yujun shook her head slowly and smiled. “Not at all. Instead, I should thank you for letting Sister Ruyue take care of me.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Are you used to it? If you’re not used to it or are too tired, you can rest for a few days before continuing.”

Hong Yujun felt that the girl in front of her gave her a very familiar feeling. It was the first time they met, but she did not feel unfamiliar at all. “I’m not tired.

I don’t need to rest. Everything is ready. I can start brewing wine tomorrow.”

Speaking of brewing wine, Chu Qingzhi asked, “Yujun, I still have the recipe for the fruit wine. Do you want to try it?”

Wine was considered a big business in the Daling Dynasty. Since they had dabbled into the wine business, they naturally had to try all kinds of wine.

Hong Yujun was very interested. “Alright, but I want to successfully brew the yellow wine before trying to brew the fruit wine.”

Wu Yaqing said, “It’s autumn now, the season for fruits to ripen. It takes two and a half months to brew the yellow wine. There won’t be any fruit then.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “I’ll get someone to dig a cellar later and buy some fruits to store. Yujun, don’t worry. I’ll settle the rest.”

Hong Yujun nodded. “Alright.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Yujun, stay for dinner later. You built a workshop for me. I want to reward you.”

Shen Ruyue told her that Hong Yujun would have lunch at home, but she insisted on paying. If she didn’t pay, she wouldn’t eat. She was very principled, but she never ate dinner. She rushed home as soon as she got off work.

Hong Yujun shook her head slowly. “This is my duty. There’s no need to reward me.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “Why aren’t you willing to stay for dinner?”

Hong Yujun hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m alone. If I go back too late, it’ll be dark. I’m a little afraid.”

So that was why. Chu Qingzhi pulled Hong Yujun’s hand over and said in a coaxing tone, “Then let’s send you back after dinner tonight, okay?”

Hong Yujun looked up at Chu Qingzhi. Her eyes were clear and bright. She could not bear to reject her. “Okay..”
