Then they started to have some discussion about the new venture.

In this way, the recipe should not be spread around and Xie Jingrong,

Yuezheng Xiao expressed that they would only ask their most trusted servants to do that, not others.

Moreover, they would never tell anyone that the creeping figs were the original material used for making the jelly.

Qiao Xuan was glad because with Yuezheng Xiao’s help, she would be able to open the shop soon. All she needed to do henceforth was to lie still and get earnings, instead of being worried about getting set up by competitors.

Although she did have the plan of opening a few dessert stores after a few years, she also believed that finding a partner would help a lot.

However, one store would not bring in much money. Only a chain of shops would help to bring in a lot of profits. They could serve sugar-water, jelly as the main dishes whilst adding some exquisite pastries and snacks… as for how they should do that in detail, they needed to have some more discussions.

Qiao Xuan did not need to worry about page boys that ran errands, because Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong would help with that. They could arrange someone to do that and there would be no obstacles for them. It was definitely much easier to do the business in a partnership than being alone.

Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong staved back at the first section of the family for dinner.

Rabbit meat was fried in oil, the roosters were stewed in water, and a few small grouse were simply marinated and then deep-fried. They were the size of pigeons, and were easy to cook in a pan.

The skin was golden and crispy, the meat was tender and juicy.

They made another pot of sauerkraut and mixed fish, and stir-fried two fresh vegetables.

They were going away the following day, but they would visit them and stay overnight when the new house was built.

Ms. Fang smiled and nodded at the two guests in enthusiasm.

Qiao Xuan and Ms. Fang prepared a lot for them to bring away, including bergamots, roosters, hares, fresh mushrooms, fungus, some fresh fruits… Since they were leaving, the dinner was prepared ahead of time.

They were just about to eat dinner, when Shao Liulang and Third Uncle arrived.

Third Uncle was feeling a bit displeased. “Yunduan, your friends are here, why not ask your cousin to join you, you just don’t know what to do!”

Shao Liulang had been studying at the college in town for years and he could figure out people better than his family did. Judging from Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao’s manners, he could tell that they were not in a low position and that they were not just some rich people or ordinary businessmen.

Especially Xie Jingrong, who looked so handsome and well-behaved. He was definitely more than just an elegant man.

Shao Liulang let out a sigh of relief. Hearing that the first section of the family was receiving some guests, who were Shao Yunduan’s rich friends, he had the intention of coming and seeing what was going on. He did not expect his mother to come with him because he knew clearly that his mother would ruin his face. He did not even want Xiaozhi to come along, fearing that she would cause trouble as well.

Hearing what his father said, Shao Liulang interrupted with a gentle tone. “Dad) don’t say such words about your cousin. We are in a good relationship, and his friends are mine too. He probably thought that I would not like joining them in the mountains, thus he didn’t tell me about it.”

Third Uncle was startled. “But…

“It is fine. Just go home, Dad. Mom is waiting for you at the dinner table!”

Third Uncle had no idea what made his son do so, yet he believed that he had a reason for his behavior. So he had to press down his questions and quietly left in silence.

Shao Liulang walked up in a manner he considered elegant, and greeted Xie

Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao with a smile. “My name is Shao Yunjiang from Minghua College, Yunduan’s sixth cousin.. How should I address the two of you Pi,
