Nian Nian was the one who was hit hardest by this punishment.
Snacks are her second life! Without snacks, life feels meaningless.
Nian Nian climbed onto the bed, buried herself in the quilt, and became autistic.
Yuanbao asked: "Nian Nian, don't you want to take a bath?"
Nian Nian ignored him.
So Yuanbao took Qingbao to wash.
After coming out of the shower, the two had completely forgotten about the snacks being confiscated. They climbed into bed and fell into a sweet dream.
Nian Nian kept shutting herself in, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.
After falling asleep, she came to a bizarre and colorful world.
Here, she turned into a phoenix and experienced all kinds of magnificent things.
When Emperor Li gave her the initiation before, he took her age and endurance into consideration and did not pour all his experiences and cultivation into her at once, for fear of overwhelming her.
Instead, he sealed it in her sea of consciousness, opening it up bit by bit, allowing her to slowly receive it.
The way to receive it is to experience his memories again from his perspective in a dream.
During this process, Nian Nian's strength and character are increasing rapidly.
Outside the space, in the room, Shen Yizi was complaining to Gu Xueting, accusing Qing Bao and the other two of the bad things they had done.
However, Gu Xueting's perspective on the issue was completely different from hers.
He summed up two key points from her words:
First, his Zhizhi liked those things very much, so much so that she would feel sad and punish the child if they were damaged a little. He had to order people to collect more and give them to her.
2. Qingbao and the others must be very sad now because their snacks had been confiscated. As a father, he needs to comfort them.
So the next day, Shen Yizi received a large package delivered by Ground Rat.
The package contained a green sandalwood comb, a Mingxia brocade skirt and camphor jelly spices for her.
The rest were for Qing Bao and the other two, including various exquisite gadgets and special foods that were popular in the imperial capital.
The three of them were originally feeling depressed because they had no snacks to eat, but now all their little emotions flew away and their little faces were filled with smiles.
"Gu Xueting! What's wrong with you! I punished them just now, and you sent these things right after. Are you deliberately going against me? How can I control them if you are like this? If they continue like this, they will become lawless! I'll see what you will do if they get into trouble in the future!"
"Qingbao and the others are good kids. I believe they won't get into trouble. Even if they do, I'll take care of it for them. Zhizhi, don't worry."
Shen Yizhi: “…”
She thought she had spoiled the child enough, but she didn't expect Gu Xueting to be even worse! He was totally unprincipled.
Fortunately, the child didn't grow up with him, otherwise he would have spoiled her into a devil? Seeing her so angry, Gu Xueting's expression was full of joy.
He was wearing a well-tailored snow-blue silk robe today. Behind him were green bamboos and clear water and trees, but they were not as beautiful as him.
Facing such a face, Shen Yizhi felt so angry that he couldn't vent it.
"Is Zhizhi going to make a big move soon?" Gu Xueting cleverly changed the subject.
"How do you know?" Shen Yizi was a little surprised.
"I got a clue from the information Zhizhi asked me."
Besides, he had ordered people to keep a close eye on her news.
"Yeah, that's right, and I'm going out soon."
Coming out of the small building, Shen Yizhi handed a food box with a heat preservation array engraved on it to Qian Wu.
The food box contained several dishes she had carefully prepared.
"Qian Wu, I have a mission for you. Go to Sucheng in Queling Prefecture and find Bao Jixiang, who lives in Hulu Lane on Nancaishi Street, and give him the food box. Bring this recipe and the contract I drafted. Use these three things to convince him to come to Lijiazhuang and manage Mingyue Restaurant for me. Can you do it?"
Bao Jixiang, a retired imperial chef, traveled around after leaving the palace, tried local delicacies, and eventually became a great chef. He now lives in Sucheng, Queling Prefecture.
This information is just a small part of the intelligence that Shen Yizhizi asked Gu Xueting last night.
And Mingyue Restaurant is under construction.
Mingyue Villa is about to open, and as long as her plan goes well, countless people will come to visit. But she does not plan to open the villa to everyone, and will even set a high threshold.
However, those who cannot enter the villa are also a huge source of customers. She does not intend to give up. She will even meet their needs in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation, so that they will be happy and reluctant to leave.
When it comes to food, the corresponding restaurant is Mingyue Restaurant. To support a restaurant, you naturally need someone to take charge.
So she set her sights on Mr. Bao.
She believed that the conditions she proposed would definitely tempt the old man, but whether he could be invited over depended on Qian Wu.
"Don't worry, girl. I will complete the task perfectly."
"Well, I believe you, but if Bao Lao really doesn't want to come, don't force him. Be gentle, understand?"
"Um!"
Qian Wu nodded, took the things and talismans she gave him, and strode out the door.
* Fengyuzhou, Jincheng.
Shen Yizhi, wearing a short veil hat, rode a snow-white dragon to the city gate.
Looking at the neat and simple words "Jincheng" on the city gate, some images flashed through her mind quickly.
Has she been here before?
After entering the city, Shen Yizi asked for directions and came to an embroidery shop - Wenxiu Pavilion.
According to the information obtained from Gu Xueting, the best embroiderer in the Southern Region is the owner of this embroidery shop - Madam Du.
The wives and daughters of high-ranking officials, wealthy businessmen and tycoons were all proud to be able to buy a piece of clothing made by Madam Du.
If you don’t have clothes, a handkerchief will do.
In short, all the clothes made by Madam Du are very popular.
If you don't have it, you'd be embarrassed to go out and visit other people. At the very least, you should have a piece of clothing from Wenxiu Pavilion.
The Tattoo Pavilion is a two-story building, very spacious and impressive. There are quite a few customers coming in and out, and most of them are dressed in gorgeous clothes. It seems that the Tattoo Pavilion is doing very good business.
Shen Yizhi found a place nearby to tie the reins, fed Bailong a spirit beast pill, touched its head, and then walked in.
As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she took off her veil, revealing a low-key face that was well-made. She was wearing plain clothes and a dagger was inserted on her belt, looking like a chivalrous woman wandering the world.
Her vision became clear, and she saw at a glance the huge embroidered screen of landscapes, peonies, flowers and birds standing in the hall.
The stitches are fine, smooth and dense, the colors are exquisite and the brilliance is dazzling. The landscapes, pavilions and figures are all very vivid, and the flowers and birds are also very graceful and beautiful.
It really looks like a painting.
