Feng Jinyu smiled when he heard this. He was right. The uncle and nephew were planning to invite the Su family to Dongjun to repay them.
"How will they react if the princess refuses?"
"The uncle and nephew have a little regret, but the princess still accepts the silver. The princess will find a way to improve the ingredients so that the cake can be stored longer. By then, the princess will make twenty birthday cakes worth one thousand taels and arrange for them to be delivered to Linyang City."
It takes quite a while to get from Linyang City to Dongjun Imperial City. Can this cake really be preserved for that long?
Seeing Feng Jinyu remained silent, Xu Mo said, "Your Highness, the uncle and nephew will leave tomorrow. Shall we set off for Cangnan County?"
"After we go to Guihua Village, we'll go to Cangnan County. By the way, when will the people Mo Feng arranged arrive?"
"Your Highness, according to the itinerary, it will be within the next two days."
"Okay, we'll leave once the people arrive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lingyu's voice came in, "Yuanliang, is your master awake?"
Li Yuanliang saw the couple coming together and said respectfully, "Awake, please come in."
Feng Jinyu hurried out of the bedroom and came forward, "Brother Su, I am no longer in any danger. Tomorrow I will go back to Guihua Village with you to see that picturesque village."
Su Xingyi said, "Okay, we'll go back after breakfast tomorrow. I'll make you some special farm-style dishes for lunch, I guarantee you'll love it."
Feng Jinyu smiled and said, "Then please don't let me down."
Xiao Lingyu watched the two of them talking politely and looking at their expressions towards each other, and actually had an illusion that both of them were good-looking. If he didn't know that Su Xingyi grew up in Guihua Village, Xiao Lingyu would have thought that Su Xingyi and Feng Jinyu were from the same class.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyu felt a chill in his heart. Su Xingyi was originally a child who was adopted and raised. He also knew martial arts. Was it his adoptive father who taught him?
Xiao Lingyu suddenly became curious about his life experience and wanted to find out more about him.
"Xiao Yu."
Su Xingyi called softly, "Talk to Jinyu about the milk tea shop dividend. I don't really understand."
Xiao Lingyu handed the box to Feng Jinyu, "Here are two thousand taels of silver notes. Take them. I want to cooperate with you to open a shop and make money. Is that okay with you?"
Feng Jinyu stuffed the banknote back into Xiao Lingyu's hand and said, "Of course. If you hadn't told me, I would have sent you money every year. This is the drink you came up with."
Xiao Lingyu stuffed the silver back in his pocket and said, "Take this. We're opening a shop together, so it makes sense for us not to spend money. Take a look at this agreement. In five years, I'll have made a lot of money, including the principal and dividends."
Feng Jinyu took a closer look at the agreement and said, "This agreement needs to be revised. Dividends must continue to be distributed after five years."
"Jinyu, I cooperate with the Lu and Xu families in this way, regardless of our relationship. This is the principle of my business cooperation."
Of course, Xiao Lingyu was lying.
Seeing Xiao Lingyu's firm attitude, Feng Jinyu had to give up and give Xiaoyu more dividends every year.
"Well, I'll take these two thousand taels of silver. In order for you to receive dividends every year, the milk tea shop must be run well no matter what."
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Then I'll just sit back and wait for the dividends."
A quarter of an hour later, the couple left the west wing and went to the flower shop...
The Lu family of Huayang County.
Sisters Lu Yuan and Lu Yao came to Su Ningjie's yard with afternoon tea.
"Brother-in-law, how do you pronounce this word?"
Si Chuyu said, "This word is pronounced ji (ji), which means a thousand-mile horse or a good horse."
"Ji, meaning a thousand-mile horse..."
Su Ningjie muttered to himself as he wrote stroke by stroke on the paper.
The sisters saw this scene when they rushed to the study.
Lu Yao whispered, "Sister, Jie is studying very hard. He will definitely pass the exam to become a Tongsheng next spring."
Lu Yuan said, "It's not that easy to test. You see, he's just trying to recognize the characters. He hasn't even looked at the annotations in the book."
"is that so?"
"Take a closer look."
Su Ningjie wrote the character 'Ji' ten times, one stroke at a time, until it looked good. Then he pointed to a character in the book and asked:
"Brother-in-law, how do you pronounce this word?"
"This character is pronounced wu (武), and the wu in martial arts is from this character."
Su Ningjie nodded, "Oh, I recognize it."
Afterwards, Su Ningjie picked up a pen and practiced writing the word "Wu" on paper.
"Sister, you're right, Brother Jie is really just learning to read..."
Lu Yuan smiled and whispered, "Sister Yao'er, do you want to learn to read with Brother Jie?"
The three words "don't learn" were stuck in Lu Yao's throat and she didn't dare to say them out loud.
She really couldn't read or write, but if she hadn't been sick, she would have learned to read and write, do needlework, and also learn to do business.
"Sister, I'm already fifteen years old. Is it too late for me to learn now?"
Lu Yuan comforted him, "If you want to learn, it's never too late."
Lu Yao looked at Su Ningjie who was practicing calligraphy seriously in the room, and thought about how he had been running around to various shops these days. She suddenly realized that he was actively learning to read because he was worried that he was illiterate and could not read the account books.
He started worrying about the family business at such a young age.
"Sister, I want to learn, starting with learning to read."
"Okay, sister will arrange it."
The two sisters pushed the door open and entered the study. "Chu Yu, Brother Jie, take a break and have some afternoon tea."
Su Ningjie glanced at the cakes on the tray, picked up a piece of walnut cake and said, "Thank you, big sister and second sister. Tomorrow we will go to the Meng Mansion for the banquet and then go directly to Xishui County in the afternoon, okay?"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Are you missing your parents, brothers and sisters?"
Su Ningjie said truthfully: "I haven't seen them for over a month. I really miss them. I want to drink milk tea and eat egg tarts. I wonder if the pastry shop is open yet."
"The pastry shops in Huayang County have been renovated, and the ones in Xishui County should be open for business. Many people may have already paid for birthday cakes."
Su Ningjie's eyebrows moved slightly, "I can't wait any longer, shall we go back tomorrow afternoon?"
"Okay, we'll go back tomorrow afternoon."
"Sister, I won't go back tomorrow."
Lu Yao hasn't found a chance to visit her second aunt and fourth aunt in the prison yet, and she is still holding a grudge in her heart!
If I can't get rid of this anger, I won't be able to relieve the hatred in my heart!
"No, you have to go back to Xishui County with us."
Although the bad guys were in jail and no one would persecute her sister again, Lu Yuan didn't dare to leave Lu Yao alone in the mansion.
She can only feel at ease if Lu Yao is under her supervision.
"Sister, follow me back to Xishui County this time. We will be back soon. I will return to Xishui County after the execution date."
Lu Yuan understood that she wanted to go to the prison to see the two men. She must not let them provoke her again. "Sister Yao'er, to prevent your illness from recurring, Madam Su will check you up every two weeks. It's been over a month now. Go back and let Madam Su check you up first. We'll come back then."
