Yi Yami was busy in the shop when she suddenly saw He Tuyuan walk in. "Hey, cousin, shouldn't you be in the academy at this time?"
"I received your message that Mr. Du is going to have a birthday, and I'm thinking about what kind of gift to give to show my appreciation. Cousin, you're smart, please help me think about it." He Tuyuan was in a hurry and had just caught his breath.
Yi Yami poured him a glass of water and said, "Look at you. When it comes to Miss Du's affairs, you start to lose your composure and don't know what to do. You are usually a very smart person, how come you become stupid at this time?"
He Tuyuan took the water and said, "Isn't this just worrying too much?"
"Okay, you don't have to worry. Just sit for a while and let me think about it for you." Yiyami's mind started to work while she was busy.
"Have you thought about it?" He Tuyuan asked anxiously.
Yi Yami smiled and said, "No matter how fast my brain works, I can't talk as fast as you do!"
He Tuyuan knew that he was too anxious and smiled embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry, I was too anxious." He Tuyuan apologized.
Yi Yami waved her hand. "Don't worry. I've got an idea. My cousin is good at painting and writing. If you can paint a landscape painting about longevity and have it framed, it won't look shabby or embarrassing when you give it away."
He Tuyuan nodded and said, "I said, my cousin is smart. She came up with a solution right away!"
Yi Yami smiled and said, "You're just overwhelmed by concern and don't know how to deal with it. If you calm down, the ideas you come up with may not be worse than mine."
"Someone from the Du family invited me to their birthday party. Do you want to go with me? I can also meet Miss Du then." Yi Yami asked him.
He Tuyuan thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I won't go. It will only cause you more trouble. I'll go back and finish drawing the birthday picture first, and then I'll go to the banquet with my parents. I can just watch from afar then."
Yi Yami nodded. "That's fine, cousin. When are you going to Kyoto for the exam? I'll prepare some dry food for you on the way."
He Tuyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go after the New Year. I'll go to the examination room in advance so I can get familiar with the environment."
Yi Yami nodded, thinking that it would take about a month to get to Kyoto. If they hurried, they would probably arrive in a little over half a month.
Thinking of this, she thought of Gu Beijian. He had been gone for more than a month, so why hadn't he come back yet?
He Tuyuan saw that she was thinking, so he finished drinking the water and said to her, "Sister, I'm leaving first."
"Okay, take care." Yi Yami was thinking about Gu Beijian in her heart and didn't pay attention to He Tuyuan. She replied mechanically.
When she came to her senses, the person had already walked away.
Xiaodi glanced at Yi Yami and said to Xinxin, "Tell me, boss, what are you thinking about lately? I always see her alone in a daze."
Xinxin took a look and said, "I guess he's wondering why Master Gu hasn't come back yet!"
Xiao Di perked up when she heard this. "I think you're right."
Before the two of them could say anything, Yi Yami knocked on the table and said, "It's time to go to work, it's time to go to work. Stop chatting and go entertain the guests. I'll go to the market to see if there are any good things. If someone from the Du family comes later, ask them to wait. I'll be back soon."
Xiao Di nodded and said, "Okay, boss, you can go ahead."
Du Jiaqi did come as Yi Yami expected, and he wanted to discuss with Yi Yami what ingredients to buy for the birthday banquet in a few days.
"Mr. Du, my boss has told me that she has gone to the market. If you are looking for her, please wait a moment." Xiao Di came forward to greet him.
"Oh? She knew I was coming?" Du Jiaqi was curious.
"Well, my boss has anticipated this. Just wait a moment and she will be back soon." Xiaodi served him a cup of tea and went downstairs.
Du Jiaqi sat down and felt the warmth in the shop, which was indeed different from the coldness on the street. He saw that the customers coming and going were eating happily, and he felt hungry too, so he asked Xiaodi for a meal. Xiaodi served him the meal immediately, and Du Jiaqi began to eat with relish.
While eating, Du Jiaqi felt that his younger sister's suggestion was right. The food at Yiji was indeed better than the food at other places. After finishing one portion, he wanted another.
At this time, Yi Yami had already returned.
Yi Yami saw Du Jiaqi sitting in the hall eating and walked over. "Master Du, are you here to look for me?"
When Du Jiaqi saw that it was Yi Yami, he quickly wiped his mouth and nodded, "That's right, my father asked me to confirm the menu with Shopkeeper Yi so that we can prepare the ingredients."
Yi Yami heard this and said, "Please, let's go up to the third floor to talk."
Du Jiaqi put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Xiaodi, "I'll pay the bill later."
Xiaodi said yes, and Du Jiaqi followed Yi Yami up to the third floor.
"Mr. Du, what kind of birthday banquet does your father want? I have ordinary version, moderate version and luxury version." Yi Yami asked after Du Jiaqi sat down.
"My father probably wants a deluxe version. After all, our family has the means." Du Jiaqi said after thinking for a while.
"Okay, for the deluxe version, the money you gave is not enough, you need to add another five hundred taels, which is my appearance fee. And as for the ingredients, you have to calculate them separately and pay for them separately. You can go and ask, everyone who has hired me to prepare a birthday party paid this price." Yi Yami spoke directly.
"Okay, no problem." Although Du Jiaqi felt a little painful, when he heard that other people did the same, he felt that he could not lose face.
"Okay, the price is agreed upon. You will sign a contract for this fee later. As for the money, do you want to pay it now or after the birthday party?" Yiyami asked.
