On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal
Chapter 1114 It Turns Out to be the Wu Family
Yan Ruyu also got up early today, not for the Wu family's flower-viewing party, but because she wanted to bake a few pounds of cookies.
This was the first business for the dim sum shop, and it was a big order, so everyone took it very seriously. Yan Ruyu came over to make some by hand to encourage everyone.
The cookies were made into various shapes, using whatever molds were available in the space. There were flowers, little bears, and five-pointed stars.
The cookies were baked and the aroma filled the air. Everyone had two pieces to try and everyone looked delighted.
“It’s crispy and crunchy, and tastes really good.”
"It's just the right amount of sweetness, and the sesame seeds are so fragrant."
Yan Ruyu took off her apron and said, "Since it's okay, I'll give it to the customer as a gift."
"Yes."
Everyone quickly started packing, half a pound per box, for a total of ten boxes. It was convenient for the customer to keep it for himself or share it with guests.
Just as she finished installing, Rong came in from the front: "Princess, someone from the main family is here to inquire about the situation."
"Then tell her to deliver it on time as agreed."
Rong took two steps forward, a little hesitantly: "Princess, the person who came this time is not the same person as before, and he also made two requests."
Rong had been through a lot before, so it must not have been an easy thing for her to look like this.
"any request?"
"She said that the price would be reduced by 30%, and in addition, she would be given two kilograms of almond cakes every month for three consecutive months," Rong emphasized, "for free."
Yan Ruyu raised her eyebrows slightly: "Not to mention how excessive it is to reduce the price by 30%, just to say that giving away six kilograms of snacks for free, how can this be justified?"
"It was said that the Third Madam liked it. This time they were able to order our snacks. Although it was recommended by the Governor's wife, it was also the Third Madam who spoke well of it. She said that giving six pounds of snacks as a gift was justified."
"Respect?" Yan Ruyu gave a short laugh. "I feel uncomfortable with the use of this word."
When the other ladies heard these words, they also looked angry.
At this time, someone outside shouted, "Have you discussed it? We, the Third Madam, are not taking advantage of you. It is your blessing to be able to send something to the Wu family! Ask around and see how many people want to send something to the Wu family, but the Wu family doesn't care."
Yan Ruyu asked, "Wu family? Is she from the Wu family?"
"She didn't tell me before, but she told me when she came to give me the address this time. It's the Wu family, and they're going to hold a flower viewing party today."
Yan Ruyu lowered her eyes and sneered: "It's true that enemies meet on a narrow road."
"Tell her we've agreed to whatever she asks for."
"Yes." Although Rong was puzzled, she did as Yan Ruyu said.
"Also," Yan Ruyu picked up a small box of biscuits, "I'm not going to give these to the Wu family. I'll leave two boxes for you to share, and leave the rest at the door for passersby to share. As for the remaining ingredients, I'll come in the afternoon to make them and give them away."
"Yes."
Rong went out to send away the people from the Wu family, and Yan Ruyu waited. Not long after, Rong came back.
"Princess, I have explained everything clearly. It turns out that the Wu family's steward gave half of the deposit, and the 30% she wanted was deducted from the unpaid half."
"Did you give her a receipt?"
"Yes, she asked me to give it at the original price, but I disagreed, saying that it would not be included in the account. She was a little dissatisfied, but seeing that I insisted, she took away our two pieces of date cakes."
Yan Ruyu sneered: "Okay, I'll make her spit out what she ate."
"When you go to deliver it, bring someone with you and bring the deposit receipt and this one as well."
"Yes, understand."
After Yan Ruyu gave her instructions, the carriage arrived outside. Beibei was driving the carriage, Linlang was sitting at the back, and Huo Changhe was lighting the fire in the carriage and making some warm tea.
The eldest lady urged, "Go and pick up Ruyu quickly."
Yan Ruyu held Huo Changhe's arm and got on the carriage. The eldest lady handed over the small bundle and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes."
The eldest lady helped her change it herself, and as she did so she said, "The Wu family is trying to intimidate us. Although we don't need to argue with such people, we have been bored recently. Since she has stretched out her face to us for a fight, we might as well give her a fight."
"Mother is absolutely right," Yan Ruyu obediently let her do what she wanted, "I will definitely let mother vent her anger today."
"I'm not angry, it's not worth it," the eldest lady stretched out her sleeves, "it's just for fun."
Huo Changhe rolled his eyes silently, and Yan Ruyu suppressed a smile: "Yes, it's fun. Don't be angry with them. It's not worth it to be angry with them."
The eldest lady opened the jewelry box, took out four or five hairpins at once, and placed them on Yan Ruyu's head.
Yan Ruyu leaned back subconsciously. Huo Changhe supported her and said to the eldest lady, "Mother, they are not in our eyes, so there is no need to dress up so grandly. The more we do this, the more they will think that we want to compete with them and think that they are a piece of cake."
The eldest lady thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense."
The hairpin was put back, leaving only a ruby hairpin: "This one, just this one will do."
Yan Ruyu: “…Okay.”
After the clothes and jewelry were ready, the eldest lady took out a pair of shoes.
"Put on this, it's warm, light, comfortable, and nice-looking," the eldest lady smiled. "I had it made specially for you. I compared it with your old shoes. Don't worry, it will fit you."
Yan Ruyu felt warm in her heart: "I'm sorry to have troubled mother."
She didn't have high demands in this regard. As long as she had something to wear, she was happy and never worried about it. The eldest lady prepared everything for her, whether it was for the New Year, daily wear, or changing of seasons. Although these were trivial matters, it was these daily trivial matters that better reflected the eldest lady's love and care for her. She was meticulous and considerate.
She didn't even know when this pair of shoes was custom-made, and she didn't even know that the eldest lady took away a pair of her old shoes.
"Why bother? You worry about the big things, so I do these little things for you. I dare not say anything else, but making you comfortable and warm is a comfort when you return home. This is something I can still do well."
"Mother," Yan Ruyu's throat tightened slightly.
In her previous life, she had never experienced what maternal love was, but she didn't expect that in this strange world, the eldest lady would give it to her.
The eldest lady pulled her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this, Yu'er. Our family has been through so many hardships together. Our relationship is deeper than that of ordinary families. Is there any need to talk about this? You are my child. Change your clothes quickly. If you say anything else, I will be angry."
Yan Ruyu laughed dumbly and put on her shoes: "It really fits and is very comfortable."
When the eldest lady saw her put them on, she was happier than she was: "That's good. Aren't these two beads on the tip of the shoe nice? I picked them out from my jewelry box, or from the dozen or so that Qiu Shangwei gave me when we became sworn brothers."
"It looks nice, but it's a bit of a waste to use it on shoes."
"Nonsense, it's not a waste if you use it."
The eldest lady dressed Yan Ruyu up from head to toe, and when she was almost done, the Wu family was about to arrive.
