Guessing that the time was almost up, Zhang Jinyue came out.

She glanced at the delighted Zhang Cuihua and asked, "What did you just say?"

Zhang Cuihua glanced back at Zhang Jinyue and told her the purpose of the Gu family's visit.

Hearing that Zhang Cuihua had agreed, Zhang Jinyue frowned slightly. It seemed that Zhang Cuihua had forgotten who was in charge of the family now, and was always ready to meddle in her own affairs.

Zhang Jinyue said displeasedly: "This is my marriage, who allowed you to make your own decisions?"

Zhang Cuihua was not happy when she heard this: "Why am I good at making decisions? Whose marriage is not decided by the parents, and as your mother, I can't control you?"

Zhang Jinyue glanced at her and said, "Don't worry about my affairs. I will make my own decisions about my marriage."

Zhang Cuihua's face turned ugly, "As a girl who has lost her innocence, who else can you marry besides Gu Yuncheng? Which man would be willing to cuckold himself?"

"Then I won't bother you, mother." Zhang Jinyue gave Zhang Cuihua a cold look, "Just remember my words."

"You, you are not young anymore. If you don't get married soon, do you want to stay at home? No, I don't agree with this." Zhang Cuihua said.

"It's useless if you disagree. I'm the head of the Zhang family now, and I have the final say in everything at home." Zhang Jinyue said.

"And my mother's way of treating guests... tsk tsk, the guests have been here for so long without even giving them a cup of tea. People who don't know think that our family doesn't have a tutor. In order to prevent my mother from ruining the family's reputation, from now on the guests at home will be served by I'll entertain you."

She probably guessed the purpose of the Gu family's visit, but just thinking about the scene where others said they would be responsible for her seriously made her skin crawl.

I don’t really want to face it.

Looking at Zhang Cuihua's unhappy expression, Zhang Jinyue said coldly: "If you have nothing to do, go up to the mountain to pick wild vegetables. If you can't pick a bamboo basket, you won't have lunch at noon."

After saying that, he glanced at the slightly opened door, "You're addicted to listening to the corner, aren't you? Why don't you give me some work?"

Zhang Lihua wisely ran to the yard to get the basket. Zhang Cuihua was about to curse, but when she met Zhang Jinyue's cold eyes, she couldn't say any curse words and followed reluctantly.

Zhang Jinyue went to the kitchen, took out the fresh milk from the system, then started the fire, put the sugar and tea leaves into the pot and stir-fried until it turned into caramel color, then added the fresh milk and boiled it, finally took out the tea leaves, poured out the milk tea and let it cool .

Zhang Jinyue took a sip and thought it was pretty good. After all, it was all pure natural raw materials. Compared with the milk tea with various additives in later generations, it tasted a little better and the milk taste was more fragrant.

Now that the things are ready, how is she going to sell them?

Setting up a stall at the market is undoubtedly the most direct method, but this method is too slow. It would be great if we could find a big customer.

It was impossible for a big customer to fall from the sky. Zhang Jinyue decided to explore the market first. If the sales were good, she would not worry about finding merchants. If not, she could also open her own store to sell milk tea.

While waiting for the bus at the entrance of the village, I met Gu Yuncheng. He was sitting on the left side of the Liu-handled donkey cart with the wolf at his feet.

Zhang Jinyue stepped on the car's shaft and got into the car, pretending that nothing happened and said hello to Gu Yuncheng, "What a coincidence, you are going to town too."

Gu Yuncheng glanced at her with a complicated expression. The two families were clearly talking about marriage just now, so how did she manage to say hello as if nothing had happened?

Could it be that Zhang Cuihua hasn't told her yet?

The girls have already said hello, and naturally he, a grown man, cannot be left behind, "Yes, what a coincidence. Do you have anything to do when you go to town?"

Zhang Jinyue smiled and patted the barrel next to his feet, "I'm just like you."

The wooden barrel was covered and the contents inside could not be seen, but the fragrance of milk could be faintly smelled. Gu Yuncheng was a little curious, "What are you selling?"

"Milk tea, it's delicious. Do you want to try it?" Without waiting for Gu Yuncheng's answer, he scooped up a cup and handed it over, "Try the milk tea I made."

Gu Yuncheng took it awkwardly. He wanted to pay for it but was stopped by Zhang Jinyue, "I'm just giving you a cup to try. No money is needed."

Only then did Gu Yuncheng retract his hand that was holding the money, took a sip from the cup, and then drank the entire milk tea in one gulp.

He nodded, "It tastes good."

"Really?" Zhang Jinyue was a little happy.

"Ah."

After opening up the conversation, the two chatted and laughed and soon arrived at Qingshan Town. Gu Yuncheng's goods had a regular cooperation with a restaurant, so he was not worried about not being able to sell them. He glanced at Zhang Jinyue and wanted to help her.

"Would you like to go to Hongsheng Restaurant with me?" Gu Yuncheng asked. Although milk tea is rare, it tastes really good. Hongsheng Restaurant has a lot of money, so he might buy it.

"Okay." Zhang Jinyue agreed happily.

She is alone now, and selling in bulk is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient. In contrast, it is more suitable for her to find a big customer to supply the goods. After a while, when she has money and leisure, she can open a milk tea shop.

"Uncle Liu, please take us to Hongsheng Restaurant in town." Gu Yuncheng said.

"okay."

The donkey cart had to move forward, and after turning a few more turns, it stopped in front of an elegant restaurant, with the words "Hongsheng Restaurant" engraved on the plaque.

Gu Yuncheng asked Liu Bashi to park the car at the entrance to the backyard of Hongsheng Restaurant, and took Zhang Jinyue into the backyard. There were already many people waiting inside, holding things in their hands, waiting for the manager of the restaurant to come out to buy something.

Zhang Jinyue glanced at it and saw that in addition to the common vegetables and fruits, there were also many wild animals for sale, including snakes, rabbits, pheasants, etc., but they were all small prey.

Gu Yuncheng carried the wolf down and put it on the ground in the yard, then went back to pay Liu Bang's fare. Zhang Jinyue helped carry the two golden pheasants.

People in the yard were very curious when they saw that Gu Yuncheng could actually hunt wolves, and they all came over to chat, and it was very lively for a while.

The purchasing manager at Songfeng Restaurant is a fat man in his forties with a loud voice and a bad temper.

On a hot day, he held a small teapot and sat at the top of the yard, instructing the waiters to bring up the dishes he liked and then quoted prices.

Zhang Jinyue was responsible for the purchasing matters at home these days. After listening carefully, he couldn't help but frown. The price he offered was a little lower than what was on the market, but because the quantity was large, the seller didn't raise any objections.

When it was their turn, the steward took a sip of water, stood up, and checked the wound and the wolf skin. Seeing that there was no major damage, he directed the waiter to weigh the body.

"A total of one hundred and five kilograms!" The boy reported the number.

After hearing this, the steward picked up the abacus on the table and fiddled with it for a while, then quoted the price: "Two taels of silver, fifty pheasants, two hundred cents, a total of two taels of silver and one hundred big coins."

Zhang Jinyue was not satisfied with the price. Whether in ancient times or modern times, wolf meat was a rare thing. The price was too cheap. The shopkeeper was obviously deliberately lowering the price, but the prey was not hers, so she couldn't say anything.
