Chapter 217: Lake Cruise
Ji Zhisui had previously inquired with Miss Sun that the noble ladies in Beijing had considerable spending power, and they spent a considerable amount of money on clothes and jewelry alone.
Ji Zhisui was happily imagining the future while holding the account book, and naturally she ignored the person beside her. She didn't care about Pei Yian's existence at all.
Even when going to bed, he didn't even give the person next to him a glance.
Pei Yian, who had been ignored all night, couldn't help feeling a little jealous. He could have tolerated those emotions originally, but after going to bed, Sui Nian was still holding the account book and grinning foolishly, and he couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows.
He thought that sometimes his wife's money-obsessed behavior was really frustrating.
Pei Yian reached out and pulled the account book out of Ji Zhisui's hand, and put it far aside, where Sui Niang couldn't see it.
His tone was filled with dissatisfaction of being ignored, "Sui Niang, it's too late."
The thing in her hand was taken away. Ji Zhisui carefully looked at the expression of the person next to her. Although he didn't show anything, she had a vague guess in her heart.
The man was angry because she had ignored him all night.
This restaurant shop was given to her by someone else. Looking at the income of one hundred taels of silver, she really left the people around her to Java.
It seemed that she had indeed gone too far. She pursed her lips, tugged at the sleeve of the person next to her, and said in a delicate voice with a hint of coquettishness: "Husband, I was wrong~"
She really wasn't ignoring it on purpose, she was just too happy.
Pei Yian couldn't stand seeing a young girl like this, and the anger in his heart disappeared in the sweet and gentle words.
Those eyes also began to become dim and difficult to distinguish.
The shadows of the beds overlap, filling the room with mist. The room is filled with spring flowers and hazy moonlight.
Since she's my wife, what else can I do? I can only pamper her and love her well.
The new emperor in the palace also knew that the lady of the Pei family had opened a restaurant in the capital.
Thinking of the delicious food he had that night, the new emperor felt itchy, so he disguised himself, went to the private room, and began to taste the delicious food.
He thought he could have someone bring back food from Baiwei Restaurant from time to time.
Opening a restaurant in the capital went exceptionally smoothly, not only because of previous experience, but also partly because Ji Zhisui was confident in his dishes. As for the others, knowing that the Duke of Zhenguo was behind this restaurant, few fools would take the initiative to provoke him.
Ji Zhisui ran a milk tea dessert shop, which was also very successful.
The fact that milk tea has become a favorite of many people in later generations must be due to its own ability.
The milk tea made by Ji Zhisui does not contain any additives, it just has the original flavor of milk tea.
Pearl milk tea, in particular, is a favorite of the ladies and ladies in Beijing. It has the aroma of milk mixed with the fragrance of tea, and you can also eat chewy pearls in it. Just taking a sip and chewing it will make you squint your eyes in satisfaction. What's more, there are also sweet little cakes.
Many people are curious about the identity of the owner of this milk tea dessert shop. He always comes up with fresh and delicious food that attracts so many people.
Not to mention Baiwei Restaurant, the daily income from closing this store is very considerable. Of course, at this time, she is no longer the person who forgets her husband while counting money like she did at the beginning.
Otherwise, who knows how this man will punish her!
Ji Zhisui had never known before that Pei Yian could be so petty that he would get angry even about such things.
Time flies and the Mid-Autumn Festival is here soon.
Since it was a holiday, Ji Zhisui also planned to open the shop. Plus, Pei Yian was on vacation, so he just wanted to have a good holiday with the Pei family.
Just as she was thinking about what to plan, Pei Yian spoke first: "Sui Niang, let's go out and play together on the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
Pei Yian didn't forget that he expressed his feelings during last year's Mid-Autumn Festival.
Such an important day is worth commemorating.
Pei Yian didn't know that this was probably what people in later generations called an anniversary.
"Okay." Ji Zhisui didn't think much about it. There was nothing wrong over there anyway.
On the Mid-Autumn Festival, when Ji Zhisui and Pei Yian went out, they came to the lake. The lotus flowers in the lake were in full bloom, and no one knew what kind they were.
Only now did she realize that Pei Yian planned to go boating with her.
On the lakeshore, there were many couples, and the women's faces were almost all filled with shyness. At least on the surface, there was still a distance between men and women.
Ji Zhisui felt that most of the people on the lakeshore seemed to be men and women who were either confirmed in their relationship or were still in the ambiguous stage. It was rare to see people like her and Pei Yian who were already married.
Looking at the man fiddling with the bamboo pole in his hand, Ji Zhisui couldn't help but smile.
Because the man fiddled with it for a long time, but the boat didn't move forward at all and remained stagnant.
She was used to seeing men handling everything with ease, but this was rare.
"My lady, please don't laugh at me."
"Well, I didn't." Ji Zhisui explained. She was just very happy.
"I don't know how to row a boat because I've never done it before." Pei Yian didn't know whether he had heard her explanation or not, and he still said this.
"Why, do you still want to go boating with others?" The other party answered so seriously that Ji Zhisui couldn't help asking.
While asking the question, Ji Zhisui was staring at him with his deer eyes, but those round eyes did not have any deterrent power, but instead had a cute and aggressive look.
It seemed as if she would jump up and hit Pei Yian if he dared to say the word "want".
"My dear, how dare I! The first time I went boating was with you, the first time my heart fluttered and I felt happy was also with you, the first time I kissed was also with you..."
Before the man could finish speaking, Ji Zhisui stepped forward and covered the man's mouth tightly, with a warning in his eyes. This man was really something. He always felt that he would say something inappropriate for children.
Pei Yian had mastered the skills of rowing by this time. The motionless boat had begun to float on the surface and came to a remote place with dense lotus leaves.
He let go of the oars and pulled the person who rushed towards him into his arms, hugging him tightly.
His lips were pressed against the ear of the person in his arms, sniffing the fragrance on her body and rubbing the soft tip of her ear.
"Sui Sui, I will only go boating with you." The man's voice was a bit bewitching and ambiguous.
Ji Zhisui hummed softly, feeling the itch in his ears spreading throughout his body. How could this man be so good at saying sweet words? He was not as cold and reserved as before.
After finishing the boat trip and getting ashore, Ji Zhisui unexpectedly saw someone who looked familiar among them.
It was Ji Baozhu. She was walking with a young man. Perhaps the other man felt her gaze, so he looked over and saw the two people standing together, both of whom looked very well-matched.
