"Ayu." Liu Zhizhi came into the house carrying the freshly made pastries.

"Aren't you guys very quick at making pastries? Why did you take so long?" Ye Ziyu had already drunk several cups of tea.

"Ours is ready, but Ping'er wants to make some more to take on the road tomorrow. Come and try it." Liu Zhizhi handed a piece to Ye Ziyu.

"A new product?" Ye Ziyu took it and took a bite.

"What is this?" Ye Ziyu tasted it carefully, but couldn't tell what it tasted like.

"How is it?" Liu Zhizhi looked expectant.

“It tastes fresh and fragrant, sweet but not greasy, and feels like drinking tea.”

Liu Zhizhi smiled but said nothing.

"Did you add...tea?" Ye Ziyu asked uncertainly.

"Well, add some tea to make it." Liu Zhizhi said.

"I never thought that tea could be made into pastries, and that they could retain the fragrance of tea and taste just like drinking tea." Ye Ziyu felt novel.

"I just wanted to try it on a whim, and I didn't expect it to taste so good."

Ye Ziyu hugged Liu Zhizhi and said, "Zhizhi, how can you be so great? You have such good cooking skills and can create so many delicious new products. With you in my shop, I am not afraid of losing money at all."

"I'm not as good as you say. On the contrary, I should be grateful to you for helping me so much. If it weren't for your courage at the beginning, you saved me in the palace, helped me solve my second uncle's problem, and took me to open a shop and make money. If I hadn't met you, maybe I wouldn't have survived at the beginning." Liu Zhizhi smiled bitterly.

If Ye Ziyu had not stood up for her at the beginning, Liu Zhizhi's clothes would have been ruined by Huang Caiyue. How could she live with dignity in such a disheveled state?

The matter of Liu Zhizhi's second uncle was also arranged by Ye Ziyu. Ye Ziyu asked Yifeng to find someone to lend money to Liu Zhizhi's second uncle, and then when asking for repayment, forced Liu Zhizhi's second uncle to sign a note, saying that he would never go to the gambling house again, and if he went again, he would be killed. Although this approach is not in accordance with the law, for someone like Liu Zhizhi's second uncle who values ​​life more than anything else, this is actually the best way.

"Meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life." Liu Zhizhi said with a smile.

"Let's just consider the past as the past. We don't have to think about it anymore. Our lives will get better and better in the future!" Ye Ziyu said with a smile.

"We are here." Ye Qingyin brought Jiang Xiping back with some pastries in her hands.

"Sister Ayu, look, these are the pastries I made myself." Jiang Xiping handed the pastries in her hand to Ye Ziyu.

"Wow, Ping'er made these beautiful cakes." These pastries are also in the shapes of animals, and some are particularly realistic.

"Try one and try the taste. This is what Sister Zhizhi taught me." Jiang Xiping picked a rabbit and gave it to Ye Ziyu.

"Why give me a rabbit?" Ye Ziyu took it.

"Because Sister Ayu is usually as cute as a rabbit, but she will bite when she is pushed into a corner, just like she did to Ping'er last time." Jiang Xiping said reasonably.

"Pfft." Ye Qingyin laughed out loud.

Ye Ziyu held her forehead with her hand, "Ping'er, you don't understand the saying that rabbits will bite when they are cornered."

"Emm... isn't that right?" Jiang Xiping looked innocent.

"Hahahaha." Ye Qingyin laughed out loud.

"Humph." Ye Ziyu snorted at Ye Qingyin, then asked, "Ping'er, you said I'm a rabbit, then what is Sister Ayin?"

Jiang Xiping thought about it seriously, "Here." Jiang Xiping took a piece of cake and gave it to Ye Qingyin.

Ye Qingyin took it, "Snake?"

"Snake?" Ye Ziyu saw the image and thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out. "Why is it a snake?"

"Because she's a femme fatale. Sister Ayin is so beautiful and so cold. Doesn't she fit the description of a femme fatale?" Jiang Xiping had an expression that showed she was waiting to be recognized.

"Haha...haha." Ye Qingyin couldn't laugh anymore, "Ping'er, your adjective is really...quite special."

"Hahahahahahaha." Now it was Ye Ziyu's turn to laugh.

"So, our Ping'er's ideas are very unique, right? Femme Fatale sister." Ye Ziyu said to Ye Qingyin.

"You're teasing me!" Ye Qingyin stepped forward and tickled Ye Ziyu.

"Hahaha... I was wrong... Hahaha, sister, I was wrong, stop tickling me." Ye Ziyu was most afraid of being tickled.

"Sister Ayu, Sister Ayin, stop playing and try my pastries." Jiang Xiping interrupted them.

"Okay, okay, Ping'er is waiting." Ye Ziyu grabbed Ye Qingyin's hand.

"Hmph." Ye Qingyin let Ye Ziyu go. Ye Ziyu picked up the pastry that was put back on the plate and took a bite.

"Ping'er has learned this skill quite well." Ye Ziyu said.

"Of course, Ping'er is studying very hard." Ye Qingyin said.

"You all said it's delicious, so dad and mom will definitely like it too. I happened to make a lot more so we can eat it on the way tomorrow, or we can take it back for mom and them." Jiang Xiping said happily.

"Ping'er, didn't my uncle say that you would stay here for a few more days? Why are you leaving tomorrow? And I didn't hear my uncle mention it yesterday."

"My dad said my mom is nagging him, so he's leaving for home tomorrow. If I don't go back and make mom wait for too long, she won't take me out next time. So I can only go home honestly, because my mom is like this." Jiang Xiping picked up a piece of cake, "She's so fierce."

"Pfft... Ping'er, this isn't something you prepared for your mother, is it?" Ye Ziyu asked.

"Of course not. My mother would beat my butt to pieces if she saw me." Jiang Xiping put the pastry in her mouth and ate it.

"But you guys said you wanted to leave so suddenly, I guess I'm not ready yet." Ye Qingyin said.

As expected, when Jiang Ji told Jiang Xu that he and Ping'er would leave tomorrow, Jiang Xu was stunned at first, then left without saying anything. He did not stay with Jiang Ji like he had done in the previous two days.

When Ye Zhengde went to find Jiang Xu, Jiang Xu just asked Ye Zhengde to accompany Jiang Ji and did not open the door to let Ye Zhengde in.

Jiang Xu was not present at lunch, and only Ye Zhengde accompanied Jiang Ji.

"Where is Xuer?" Jiang Ji asked.

"In the room, when I asked her to eat, she said she had no appetite and asked me to accompany my brother-in-law." Ye Zhengde replied, "Didn't you say you would stay for a few more days? Why are you leaving tomorrow?" Ye Zhengde was also surprised when he heard the news.

"I received a letter from my wife yesterday, saying that she missed Ping'er and asked me to take Ping'er back as soon as possible. I think we have been here for a few days now, and it's about time, so I will leave tomorrow." Jiang Ji replied.

"Xu'er hasn't seen her family for so many years. It's rare to see them, but they leave before they have spent much time together. Xu'er must be feeling sad." Ye Zhengde said.

"This is all your fault. I haven't seen you bring Xu'er back to your parents' home for so many years. Didn't you agree to bring Xu'er back? As a result, except for the past two years when my father and mother came to Beijing, I haven't seen Xu'er since then." Jiang Ji complained.

"It's my fault, it's my fault. When the children grow up, I will resign and take Xu'er back to my mother's home to live permanently. I will leave the affairs of the capital to them and not worry about them anymore."

"Hahaha, I hope you keep your promise and continue drinking."

In fact, it is not impossible to stay for two more days, but Jiang Ji knows Jiang Xu's personality. If he stays for too long, Jiang Xu's attachment will become deeper and deeper, and she will feel even more uncomfortable if he leaves at that time, so it is better to leave early.

"I didn't expect that Zhizhi not only makes delicious pastries, but also cooks delicious meals." Ye Ziyu wiped her mouth.

"Hee, it's not that exaggerated. They are just some home-cooked dishes." Liu Zhizhi said with a smile.

"How can you be so exaggerated? They are obviously the same dish, cooked in the same way, so why do yours taste better than others?"

"I don't know. I just cook the same way as everyone else. You said mine tastes better than others. Maybe you were hungry today, so it tasted better."

"I... am hungry?" Ye Ziyu thought about the fact that she had eaten a lot of cakes and drank tea before the meal, "I shouldn't be hungry..."

"Okay, whether you are hungry or not, it's true that you like to eat." Ye Qingyin said.

"Hahaha, that's true, I really like the dishes cooked by Zhizhi." Ye Ziyu looked happy.

"Then I can cook for you again next time I have the chance." Liu Zhizhi said.

"Miss, the second young master Ye is here to look for Sister Ziyu and Sister Qingyin." The new lover came in from outside to report.

"My second brother? Wasn't he having dinner with Brother Lin? Did he finish so quickly?"
