Chapter 509: Mid-Autumn Festival
Wen Yan said, "I came here this time to ask for something."
"Sister-in-law, please feel free to speak." Qi Yunzhou made a gesture of invitation to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan then stated his purpose.
Qi Yunzhou agreed without any hesitation.
"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Qi. I'll come see you in a few days."
In the following days, Wen Yan was busy decorating the shop.
She won't compromise on anything.
She wants to find the best craftsmen and will not compromise on materials.
Everything is done in the most refined and elegant direction.
When the decoration was halfway done, Huang Ying'er suddenly brought her a lot of colored glass: "Since the shop needs to be redecorated, why not replace all the windows and use these colored glass instead of window paper."
"Using colored glass instead of window paper!" Wen Yan's pupils dilated. "That's a bit too extravagant."
But she figured it out immediately.
Colored glazed windows are also a very good commodity.
Suddenly, she had an idea and came up with several ideas for the windows.
Huang Ying'er looked at the exquisite patterns and said, "I haven't made the glass cutter yet. I'll make a few templates first, and then we can make them according to the dimensions on the drawings."
After the two finished discussing business, Huang Ying'er did not leave as usual.
Instead, he picked up the teacup and drank the tea.
A bit abnormal.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Wen Yan looked at her.
Huang Yinger smiled sheepishly: "The emperor gave me a shop. I want to start a rouge and powder business and let my parents run it."
"This is a good thing. With your parents around, there will be someone to take care of you."
"You make spices, and you're quite famous, so I thought I'd get some from you and put it in my shop to boost my reputation."
Huang Ying'er had no talent in perfume making and had never had any experience with it before.
She had no choice but to ask Wen Yan for help.
Wen Yan’s spices are very popular, and coupled with the rationed supply, they have always been in short supply.
Many difficult-to-mix spices are already queued up for several months.
She doesn't need to distribute at all.
What Huang Ying'er did was actually stealing the money from her.
However, Wen Yan still agreed readily: "But...even if it's a bulk price, I won't give you a too cheap price. You won't make much money selling spices."
Huang Ying'er waved her hand: "Having this gimmick is enough."
Wen Yan gave her a time and asked her to go to "Qingfeng Xiaolou" to pick up the goods.
Although the days are busy, Wen Yan likes such days very much and she feels very fulfilled.
The sudden increase in intensity was more than her small body could handle.
She took a nice hot bath and finally relaxed her tense and tired body.
Wen Yan finished her shower and came out steaming.
She sat by the window, wringing her wet hair with a handkerchief.
Ying Zhilin put down his book, came behind her, took her handkerchief and wiped her hair.
"You must be very tired lately." Ying Zhilin talked to her while helping her wipe her hair.
Wen Yan moved his shoulders and said, "Just make it through the Mid-Autumn Festival. There are only five or six days left."
Ying Zhilin helped her dry her hair and massaged her head and shoulders.
His big palm had just the right amount of strength, and Wen Yan felt very comfortable being pressed by him, and couldn't help but hum softly.
Wen Yan quickly covered her mouth.
Ying Zhilin paused and looked at her dimly: "Wen Yan, are you trying to seduce me?"
Wen Yan raised an eyebrow: "So what if I seduce you?"
"Of course I'll eat you." Ying Zhilin whispered in her ear and gently held her earlobe in his mouth.
The tingling and numb feeling instantly made half of her body go limp.
Wen Yan pushed him away and turned around.
Her slender hands reached into his loose collar and peeled off his clothes in a few seconds, revealing his strong body.
Wen Yan looked up at him, her eyes sparkling: "Now it's my turn to eat you."
She pecked him on the abs.
Ying Zhilin took a deep breath, and his fair and strong muscles rose and fell, and his body trembled slightly.
He bit his lip tightly, but a meaningless but confusing sound still leaked out of his throat.
After his breathing calmed down a bit, he spoke with difficulty: "Master, please...eat me."
"I'll help you!" Wen Yan's fingers slid up his chest and finally stopped at his Adam's apple.
Ying Zhilin tilted his head back, revealing his slender neck, as if he was offering his most vulnerable part to his beloved.
Wen Yan kissed his Adam's apple.
Ying Zhilin's grip on the back of the chair suddenly tightened, and his skin flushed a tender pink due to excitement...
**
In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This was Huang Ying'er's first answer to the emperor, and she was even more nervous than Wen Yan.
She was afraid that there might be omissions, so she got up early and came to find Wen Yan, took her to the shop, and checked all the processes. Only after confirming that everything was correct did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Only then did he notice the strangeness on Wen Yan's neck and winked at her ambiguously.
Wen Yan was puzzled.
He looked at himself in the bronze mirror and his cheeks suddenly felt hot.
"Food and sex are part of human nature. There's nothing to be shy about. But growing strawberries on your neck is very dangerous and may put your life in danger." Huang Ying'er kindly reminded.
Wen Yan: "Ahem..., I know, thank you very much."
Wen Yan hurried home to settle the score with Ying Zhilin.
I couldn’t go back to Songshan Village during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Wen Yan prepared the festival gifts in advance and sent them back to the village, asking Chief Ying to distribute them on his behalf.
An ordinary villager is a bag of mooncakes.
The craftsmen working in the workshop and the members of the Ying family were given a bag of mooncakes and a piece of meat.
For those who are close to the clan leader like Patriarch Ying, the gifts are more valuable.
As for Ying Zhilin's family, after the two discussed it, they asked Brother Dahu to go back and bring them and the Liu family to the capital to celebrate the festival.
The fifth grandmother and the grandmother were reluctant to come: "We are two old people, so we won't bother."
They actually don't want to cause trouble for their children.
Especially the fifth mother-in-law.
Because she is a godparent, she has always fulfilled her duties.
In her twilight years, she is already very content to have enough food and drink and to have grandchildren around her, and she dares not ask for too much.
Dahu scratched his head and said, "Zhilin said that we must take you all away. Why don't you come with me to the capital and convince Zhilin in person?"
Then, without saying anything, he carried Fifth Grandma onto the carriage.
It was only when Grandma Wu got on the carriage that she realized she was being held by her younger generation.
The last time she was carried horizontally by a man like this was on her wedding day, when her old man carried her from the ox cart into the house.
Grandma Wu was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She shrank in the carriage and dared not say a word.
Wen Yan has been extremely tired recently and has no time to prepare a feast for the guests.
I simply went to Qingfenlou and booked two tables.
Brother Dahu got four horse-drawn carriages and left early in the morning. He finally got home before lunch after rushing.
Ying Zhilin held Wen Yan's hand and greeted them at the door with Liu Sige.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a group of children jumped out.
The person in charge is Ying Zhihai.
When he saw Wen Yan, he let out a cry and threw himself into her arms: "Sister-in-law!"
