I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

161 No problem

The setting sun that had been washed by the autumn rain seemed to be covered by a golden veil.

In the distant sky above the bamboo forest, the birds suddenly flew up, leaving a trail under the dazzling sunset.

Shen Yao stared at the earth temple that had been burned to ashes, his eyes dark.

A moment later, someone supported a black figure and appeared in front of him.

“You saved me. I’m grateful.”

“If not for my wife and mother’s quick-wittedness today, I’m afraid they would have already died.” Shen Yao’s tone was very light, but he could not hide the anger in it.

The man could not deny it.

After all, he and his guards had been hiding nearby, so he had seen the previous scene. However, he was seriously injured now. If he really rushed out, they would probably die together.

Fortunately, those two women were exceptionally quick-witted.

“This jade pendant is my thank-you gift to you.” The man was silent for a long time. Finally, he took out a jade pendant from his pocket and handed it to him. His tone was sincere.

Shen Yao stared at the jade pendant, unmoved.

The guard who was supporting the man was instantly displeased. “I hope you don’t fail to appreciate our kindness. Do you know that our master is…”

“Watch your words!” The man in black scolded sharply with a tense face.

The guard hurriedly lowered his head and apologized.

“I don’t want this jade pendant.” Shen Yao pursed his lips and said softly, “I hope you can promise not to let the villagers of Shanghe Village be harmed.”

The injured man’s eyes flashed when he heard this.

“… Okay.”

With his promise, Shen Yao nodded slightly. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped.

“Hm?” Shen Yao frowned in confusion.

“Brother, can you keep your saving me a secret?”

Shen Yao lowered his eyes to hide the light in them. In the end, he said slowly, “The temple has been in disrepair for a long time. In addition, a rat overturned the candlestick, causing this fire…”

“Thank you.” The man in black naturally understood what he meant and said gratefully.

The next morning.

Ji Zhao went to the central room of the Shen family early in the morning. She faced the statue of the local god and prayed with an incense stick.

“Earth God, I’ve already asked my father-in-law for help. He’ll be looking for a craftsman in the next two days. At that time, I’ll definitely renovate the entire Earth Temple,” Ji Zhao said obediently with a smile.

“Ah Tao?” At that moment, Zhao Lanhua, who had just finished a set of Five Animal Play in the courtyard, called out to the central room, “Are you ready?”

“Mother, I’m almost done!” Ji Zhao tidied up the fruits and snacks in front of the Earth God before leaving the house in satisfaction.

“Mother, when you come back, don’t forget to bring me a bag of osmanthus pastries!” Second Sister-in-law Shen leaned against the door frame with a big belly and said eagerly.

“Don’t worry, I’ll remember everything!” Zhao Lanhua hurriedly instructed, “Second daughter-in-law, if you need any help, remember to call your Aunt Guihua. Mother has already greeted her!”

“Yes, yes. Don’t worry, Mother.”

Shen Yao brought his mother and wife and hurriedly set off towards the village entrance. In the end, they successfully caught up with the ox cart before seven o’clock.

Dingyuan County, Shen Ji Pastry Shop.

Eldest Brother Shen was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. There was a long line of customers who came to the shop to buy snacks.

When Ji Zhao and the others rushed over, they saw this scene.

“Everyone, don’t squeeze. There are more than a hundred servings of double skin milk today!” Feng Chunyan, who was standing outside the shop, shouted at the top of her lungs, “Don’t be anxious. You can definitely buy a portion!”

“Auntie? Sister Ah Tao, Third Brother Shen?” The sharp-eyed Feng Chunyan saw the group of people and hurriedly shuttled through the crowd, greeting them with a smile.

“Chunyan, why are there so many customers outside this shop?” Zhao Lanhua asked curiously as she handed her a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

“Auntie, this is all thanks to Sister Ah Tao. Didn’t she make a dessert at the old lady’s birthday banquet? Everyone heard that the double skin milk was especially delicious, so they came to line up outside our shop!” Feng Chunyan said with a smile. “Sister said that our shop’s business these two days is even better than the previous half a month!”

“Then aren’t you guys overly busy?” Zhao Lanhua asked hurriedly. She rolled up her sleeves and said, “Can we help?”

Eldest Brother Shen, who was entertaining guests, saw Ji Zhao walk in and his eyes lit up. He called out happily, “Third Sister-in-law?”

“Big Brother, I’ll go help in the kitchen first.” Ji Zhao smiled and walked towards the kitchen.

Eldest Brother Shen almost cried tears of joy!

Ji Zhao’s appearance was like a timely rain for Shen Ji Pastry Shop!

The family worked together and finally sold out all the double skinned milk at the end of the day.

“Mother, it’s all thanks to you, Third Brother, and Ah Tao who arrived in time today. Otherwise, we don’t know how long we would have been busy!” Eldest Brother Shen sat on the rattan chair and thanked her from the bottom of his heart. “Especially Ah Tao. You really helped a lot today!”

“Isn’t that so?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen hurriedly poured tea for everyone and said with a smile, “Besides, it’s all thanks to Ah Tao that our shop’s business has been so good for the past two days. Otherwise, if it weren’t for her telling us about the double skin milk, our business wouldn’t have become so good. It’s all thanks to Ah Tao.”

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen thanked Ji Zhao from the bottom of her heart. After all, it was Ah Tao who appeared in time when this shop was on the verge of bankruptcy and helped them sign a contract with the Qin family. Only then did they turn the tide and revive the score.

In the past few years, the scenery had not been good, and the business in the shop had not been very profitable. If not for Ah Tao’s appearance and the fact that she had provided several new pastries, the business in the shop would not have been so popular.

“We’re family, so let’s not stand on ceremony. Big Brother, you’re treating me like an outsider.” After taking a sip of tea, Ji Zhao smiled gently.

Hearing this, the smile in Eldest Brother Shen’s eyes deepened. He was even more grateful to Ji Zhao.

“Ah Tao is right. Big Brother, we’re family. Why are you so polite?” Shen Yao also smiled. “Besides, we have many things to ask Big Brother in the future!”

“Third Brother, feel free to ask me for anything!” Eldest Brother Shen immediately patted his chest and said happily!

“I wonder if Big Brother is free this afternoon? Can you accompany us to take a look at the shop under the Hongxing Restaurant?” Ji Zhao hurriedly smiled and said, “I haven’t thought of how to decorate that shop. I hope Big Brother can give a valuable suggestion.”

“No problem!” Eldest Brother Shen replied with a bright smile.
