e small courtyard, Jiayin rolled over, pulling the covers tighter. The softness of the fabric made her realize something was amiss.She suddenly sat up, covered in a large double goose down comforter w...>

“Understood, shopkeeper.”

"Yes, shopkeeper, rest assured, we will definitely do a good job."

Regardless of what they thought in their hearts, everyone responded with a chorus of agreement.

In Li's courtyard, the chimney of the kitchen stove still emitted wisps of blue smoke, showing that dinner had just been cooked.

As soon as Jia Yin got out of the car, she smelled a familiar sweet and sour scent, and immediately broke into a smile.

She darted inside and, hugging her mother’s waist, acted coquettishly. “Mom, you are so great! How did you know I wanted to eat sweet and sour pork ribs Wuu wuu, I'm starving! My stomach was rumbling all the way here. In a bit, I’m going to eat two big bowls of rice!”

Tao Hongying was bumped by her daughter and took two steps back. She was so angry that she wanted to pinch her daughter, but she couldn't bear it.

She could only pull her daughter away, tapped her forehead and scolded with a smile: "Don't be self-indulgent, it wasn't made especially for you. It was your aunt and sister-in-law who wanted something sweet and sour, so I made a big bowl. You don't have a share!"

Jia Yin did not get angry either, and ran back under the eaves.

Mrs. Wen and Wenjuan were sitting opposite each other, doing needlework. Seeing the plump little girl rushing over, they both shielded their stomachs.

Mrs. Wen quickly begged for forgiveness, "Have it all, have it all! Just don't pester me anymore, my stomach can't take it."

Wenjuan also smiled, "Little sister, don't listen to Fourth Aunt's jokes. She's afraid you'll come back late and not get to eat, so she specially left a bowl for you. I saw it."

Jia Yin smiled and still went forward to touch her aunt and sister-in-law's bellies, greeting the little baby.

When Lao Li heard the noise, she came out of the house and took her granddaughter to wash her hands.

Jia Yin described those young masters' pitiful situations, causing everyone to laugh and feel sentimental.

Mrs. Wen then said, "These people, in their usual days, swagger about the streets with their cronies, bullying honest women, each one more capable than the last. Now look at them, stripped bare!"

"Yes, they deserve to be punished like that!" Wenjuan agreed. "They are all bullies and would probably beg for mercy kneeling down to the people in Jiangbei."

Lao Li sighed, "They're just too pampered at home…" She stopped mid-sentence, remembering her grandson at home clamoring to go out and make his own way. She closed her mouth again.

Jia Yin said with a quick change of subject, "Mother, my pastry shop has been renovated! Tomorrow, come with me to the shop and help me teach the master bakers how to bake cakes, okay Today, I found a skilled young apprentice. I want him to learn how to do buttercream piping!"

Tao Hongying wiped her daughter's hands with a cloth and scolded, "You really have me at a disadvantage being your mother. I raised you this big and now I even have to listen to you tell me what to do"

Jia Yin shook her head and wagged her tail, like a puppy, she nestled into her mother's arms and acted cute. "What can I do then Mother can't put me back in her belly! I'll earn money by the end of the year and buy you gold bangles..."

Before she could finish, Mrs. Wen, Wen Juan, and Old Lady Li all chimed in together, "Sincere!"

At last, everyone burst into laughter.

Jia Yin scratched her head.

Her hobby, her family knows it very well.

Li Zhensheng met Li Laoer and Mr. Wen at the door, the three of them exchanged a few words, and as soon as they entered the door, they heard laughter from all over the courtyard, and couldn't help but smile...

Everyone ate happily and laughed together that night, passing a silent evening. The next morning, not only Tao Hongying was going into the city, but also Li Laotai, Wen's wife, and Wenjuan all went into the city together.

Country living is comfortable and peaceful, but occasionally I feel bored.

Especially these days, the village is harvesting autumn crops, and everyone is very busy.

Mrs. Wen and Wen Juan were pregnant, and no one dared to have them work hard.

Mrs. Li, the elderly, would like to go to the fields for a bit of excitement, but unfortunately, with her title as a first-rank imperial consort, it's simply not convenient.

Even when she is doing some housework at home, she can't keep still.

But if they went to the fields to work, outsiders would likely criticize the Li family's children and grandchildren for being unfilial.

Sometimes, this high status comes with many benefits, but it's also a kind of restriction...

So, we all went to the city for a walk. If we can't see him anyway, it's not worth worrying about.

Everyone was curious to see what kind of changes Jia Yin had made to the stall, so they naturally came here first.

But as the carriage arrived at the door, Peng Chuan came out to greet them, his face clouded with displeasure.

Everyone looked, but no one spoke.

The two main rooms in the back yard had been tidied up long ago, just waiting for Jiayin to come and rest when she settled accounts.

At this moment, everyone took their seats. Snacks and tea were served. Jia Yin then asked, “Manager Peng, what happened to your shop”

"Mr. Peng hurried forward and replied, "Master, that... it's nothing serious, just a minor accident. Chen Xi injured his hand..."

Injured your hand

Jia Yin immediately turned cold. Yesterday, she had specifically asked Chen Xi to help make desserts today. After one night, Chen Xi got hurt

If this is a coincidence, even fools wouldn't believe it!

...it's just that I don't know if the person who did this is targeting Chen Xi, or if they are dissatisfied with her decision...

Tao Hongying had apparently also thought of this, and opened her mouth to speak up for her daughter, but she was simultaneously held back by Mrs. Wen and Li Lao Tai.

As expected, Jia Yin wasn't the least bit flustered. She directly told Peng Zhuangui to call Chen Xi over.

Chen Xi's face was pale, and his eyes lacked the sparkle of yesterday. From his right elbow to his fingertips were wrapped in white bandages, clearly showing he was seriously injured.

Wen Juan and Mrs. Wen watched with pity, their mouths slightly covered.

Li Laotai and Tao Hongying's faces were even worse.

They came from humble beginnings and knew that with such an injury, her right hand would be useless in the future, and her livelihood would definitely be affected.

Jia Yin's eyes were filled with anger as she looked at Peng Zhuangui, coldly asking, "What on earth is going on"

Mr. Peng immediately knelt down and smiled wryly, “Master, last night the shop caught fire while we were frying oil, spilling half a pot. As it was hot, Mr. Chen went to retrieve something, his foot slipped, and his right arm plunged into the boiling oil.”

Tianwu's vegetable oil is mostly rapeseed oil. When making desserts, if it's added directly, there's a particularly rough taste.

Therefore, dim sum shops are accustomed to putting vegetable oil into the pot beforehand and heating it up, letting the smell dissipate and turning it into mature oil before using it.

Who would have thought that such a commonplace, ordinary little thing could have led to an unexpected accident...

Jia Yin thought for a moment, then asked Chen Xi, "The frying pan is hot, you shouldn't get too close, why did you go forward Why did you fall forward, do you have any suspicions"

Chen Xi abruptly raised his head, a spark of hope igniting in the depths of his despair. "Master... you, you would believe me"

Jia Yin didn't nod or shake her head, she simply said: "This is my shop, and you are the person I have my eye on. Now that something has happened to you, I definitely need to find out what's going on."

If it's an accident, I'll do my best to arrange your future assignments properly. After all, you've worked hard for the shop and I can't let you be left without a place because of an injury.

"If it weren't for the accident, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. I cannot allow someone with ill intentions to remain in my shop, or else such incidents will surely happen again!"

Chen Xi's eyes immediately turned red, and tears streamed down her face...
