s she said this, her small hand flipped over, and a silver ingot appeared in her palm, which she then slipped into the old woman's hands.The old woman was startled and quickly looked around. Seeing t...Jia Yin preferred September 8th, after all, the second day was Chongyang Festival, with the custom of climbing high places to enjoy the view, and many people went out.

The shop opening at this time will certainly boost its popularity.

But now it's September 5th, and there are still three days left. I'm a little nervous.

She thought for a moment and said, "Let's open on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month. We don't need to make the plaque yet, but we should work hard on the rest of the decorations."

Mr. Peng immediately responded, hurrying to attend to the guests.

Jia Yin called for Chen Xi, made a few small cakes, decorated them beautifully, and then went to the palace.

The Emperor had finished his court duties and was busy with some more paperwork. Hearing that County Princess Kangle had come to deliver refreshments, he couldn't help but smile and say, "It's nice that this girl has come back to the palace again. I thought I scared her last time."

Master Yi understood and quickly sent a little eunuch to the palace gate to pick up the person. While serving tea, he smiled and said, “The county princess brought some snacks, which saved the old slave from having to worry about preparing them for the Emperor. The imperial kitchen doesn't have anything new or interesting anymore. Not even I, let alone the Emperor, am tired of it.”

"Arrogant!" the Emperor laughed and scolded, "If this gets out, those cooks will be trembling in their boots."

In a short while, Jiayin brought along Grandma He and Shui Ling.

Today, JiaYin wore a goose-yellow blouse and a light green skirt. She tied two small flower buns on her head and wore a pale gold hairband. Around her neck was a silver necklace with a jade pendant.

This outfit is simple and refreshing, making her slightly chubby face appear even fairer. With a smile that crinkles the corners of her eyes, anyone who sees her can't help but feel happy too.

"Grandfather Emperor, Fu Niuer brought you some delicious food!" Jia Yin knelt down and kowtowed. She didn't shout "Long Live," but excitedly exclaimed a sentence, urging the Emperor to quickly help her up.

"Little one, what made you come see me today" The emperor motioned for Yi the Head Eunuch to drive away the palace maids and eunuchs inside the hall, then personally patted Jia Yin's skirt and pulled her down to sit beside him.

Jia Yin was smiling broadly, a touch of blush on her cheeks, but she was justified. "The dessert shop is opening soon! We've prepared all sorts of delicious treats, and as the second-in-charge, I've been working myself to the bone."

"Now it's time for Uncle Huang to show his true colors! Uncle Huang, you better make a good impression!"

The Emperor burst into laughter and replied, "So you've come to accuse me Go ahead, speak your mind. What can this old house do"

Jia Yin gestured for Shui Ling to hand the food box to Yi Zunguan for inspection. Yi Zunguan quickly checked it and then placed it on the table.

Jia Yin only brought four cakes. One was a cute ox head, one was a pink peach, one was a floral pattern, and one was a fruit patchwork.

The emperor found it novel and couldn't help but praise, "The pastry chef is truly ingenious!"

Jia Yin beamed with delight, pushing the bull-shaped cake towards the emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is a bull, so eat this first."

Having said that, she picked up her fork and took a bite, savoring the taste.

The emperor laughed and gently tapped her forehead, "What a cunning little girl!"

Having said that, he couldn't wait any longer and took a bite. The sweet and soft texture made his brow furrow even more pleasantly.

One big and one small, they shared a cake while discussing business deals as if they were serious entrepreneurs.

"Uncle Huang, the shop is still missing a plaque. Could you help me write one Even if people don't come in to spend money, just seeing it will make them think twice about causing trouble and stealing business."

"Little Fu is especially afraid of this delicious cake being contaminated with dirty things. It would be a waste! My grandma says people who waste food are the most wicked and will go to hell after they die!"

The chubby little girl chattered away, eating and shaking her head, with a smear of cream on her cheek. She was so adorable.

But when it came to business, he became serious again, like a seasoned shopkeeper.

This kind of cuteness contrast made the Emperor laugh nonstop, and it was certainly a delightful experience.

"Alright then, this old shopkeeper of mine will do his best. Come year-end when we distribute silver, I wouldn't want Second Mistress to complain." The Emperor took the handkerchief from Yi Laoban and wiped the cream off her face, then asked, "Is there anything else you need, Second Mistress"

Jiayin grinned cheekily and, with a thick face, continued to make demands, "On the 8th of September, when we open for business, have Manager Yi go to the shop and buy some delicious treats. Make a big fuss about it, so that everyone will want to rush into the store and try the snacks that Grandpa Huang likes!"

This was easy, the Emperor readily agreed.

Yi Zuo also chimed in with a playful remark, "Oh my, such a wonderful opportunity! This old servant thanks the County Princess. At that time, this old servant must savor it well. My saliva has become a river, helpless as I am. The Emperor hasn't bestowed any gifts, and I've been so hungry that I even bite the corner of my dream."

The Emperor and Jia Yin both laughed, especially the Emperor. At that moment, he awarded him a cake, saying, “Go eat it quickly so you won’t embarrass yourself again when you go to the shop that day, and make me lose face too.”

After sitting for a while, Jia Yin took her leave.

Needless to say, the Emperor bestowed upon her some jewelry, fabrics, and other fine things.

The Emperor stood at the entrance of the main hall, watching the chubby girl skip away with a cheerful gait. A smile still lingered on his face as he said, “My cousin said this girl loves money and is naturally blessed with wealth. I didn’t believe it before, but now I know half of what he said is right.”

She brought over some snacks and traded them for a bunch of good stuff to take out of the palace. This business has even reached me!

Easy also smiled, "That's because the emperor loves the princess and is willing to take a loss. But the princess really knows her business! This old servant will help the emperor prepare a big box to hold the red envelopes for the pastry shop workers during the new year!"

The Emperor laughed again...

Jia Yin had been busy all day. When she returned home, she divided half of her jewelry and fabric to her grandmother, and then told her about opening a dessert shop.

Lao Li and Tao Hongying were worried and said they would go that day to help take a look.

Just as the conversation was getting lively, Mrs. Wen came over from next door.

The mountain fruits, usually tart and sour to ordinary people, were oddly her favorite. She was pregnant after all.

At this moment, as she ate, she heard about the shop's opening and laughed, "Tomorrow, let the shop make a birthday cake. We should also help Fu Niuer promote her business."

Tomorrow

Both Granny Li and Tao Hongying were confused. Wen shi laughed and said, "Aunts, you've forgotten! Tomorrow, I'm taking Hongying and Funiu to pay a visit. The invitation was sent long ago!"

"Oh my, I've been so busy these days, I completely forgot!" Tao Hongying patted her forehead. She didn't often go out, and when she suddenly received an invitation, she simply dismissed it from her mind.

Li Laotai also hurried to get things organized, "That's right, Old Madam Jia's birthday! The birthday gifts haven't been prepared yet, let's hurry and check the storeroom."

The Jia family was a well-established noble family in Xindu. The second mistress was on good terms with the mistress of warmth, and the third master of the Jia family served in the Ministry of War. Recently, he has been associating with Li Lao Si quite a bit.

So, at Madam Jia's birthday banquet this time, Madam Jia Er visited Mrs. Wen and, through her, inquired about the Li family's intentions. Learning that the Li family was also making moves, she promptly dispatched her head steward to personally deliver an invitation.

This can also be considered as those nobles in the city taking the initiative to extend an olive branch to the Li family.

As a result, the Li family was extremely busy and forgot completely.

If it weren't for Mrs. Wen's reminder, things would have been a complete mess.

Here are three more updates for you~~~ entrance that hasn't dried up!"Both sides of the soldiers were delighted, they all rushed forward, filling their water bags and drinking deeply from bamboo cups they carried with them, exclaiming wit...
