Zhang Shu said seriously, “Little Brother, how could I lie? In short, it’s really delicious. You’ll know when you go back and try it.” Under Zhang Shu’s persuasion, Ji Yun went back in a daze.

Zhang Shu finished seeing off the guests.

He heard Ye Muyu calling him.

He hurriedly closed the courtyard door and quickly walked out of the central room.

“Zhang Shu, help me buy some ingredients.” Ye Muyu gave Zhang Shu all the ingredients needed for the food that she had prepared for the guests in the afternoon.

There was chicken, duck, fish, and so on. She wanted a little of everything, so the menu for the guests was quickly decided. Stewed chicken with mushrooms and winter melon, roast duck, pickled fish, and twice-cooked pork.

Apart from the main dishes, she also prepared some side dishes to relieve the greasy feeling. She prepared stir-fried beans, cucumber salad with Kudzu root powder, carrot salad with shredded carrots, and a serving of bitter gourd salad with shredded carrots.

She planned to make red bean wine for the appetizer.

After the meal, she naturally had to end it with a cup of tea. After thinking about it, she decided to make winter melon tea. It was a must-have for summer.

It was only early June and the weather was still cool.

However, Ye Muyu thought, ‘Just a boy servant from the Xie family is wearing thicker clothes than ordinary villagers. How can the Third Young Master and Young Lady of the Xie family wear thin clothes?’

In short, she was trying her best to make it more comfortable for the guests to visit. This way, they would leave a good impression and have a greater chance of cooperating in the future.

Ye Muyu had treated her business partners with the best attitude. It was the same as when she went out to negotiate contracts in her previous life.

With the recipe prepared by Ye Muyu, Madam Hu was helping at the side.

Lunch had already been eaten, but Ye Muyu had to prepare well for the guests.

If there were leftovers, they could send the leftovers directly to the old residence or eat them themselves. In the village, it was impossible to waste food.

Ye Muyu was preparing food.

On the other end, Ji Yun drove the horse carriage back to the Xie family and went to report the situation to Xie Yu without stopping.

As a result, just as he reached the door, he bumped into Xie Rong.

Ji Yun hurriedly stopped and reported Ye Muyu’s words to Xie Rong.

“You didn’t promise anything else, right?”

“No… No…” Ji Yun was perturbed. Xie Rong frowned, “Then what did the Chu family’s Madam give you?”

Ji Yun’s eyes widened. He could even guess this?

Actually, Xie Rong was just asking as usual. In the past, when he visited other families, it was not like there were no such cases of giving silver rewards.

However, the Chu family was just an ordinary farmer… Seeing that Ji Yun did not say anything, Xie Rong subconsciously reflected that he should not have asked. If word got out, he would think that the Young Naster cared about the Chu family’s family background.

Thinking of this, Xie Rong frowned slightly. Ji Yun had just reacted when he saw Xie Rong’s expression and his body trembled even more. Thinking that he had done something wrong, he hurriedly said, “Butler Xie, Mrs. Chu got someone to give me some Kudzu root powder. She said it’s edible… I was anxious and didn’t bring it over.”

“Really?” Xie Rong was not surprised that Ye Muyu would use an object to replace the reward. However, the Kudzu Root was a medicinal herb, right?

Could it still be eaten?

This was also the first time Xie Rong had heard of it. Although he was puzzled, he did not delay his work and glared at Ji Yun, “After I’m done reporting to Young Master, bring me over to take a look at that item.”

“Yes.” Ji Yun did not dare to refute.

Xie Rong quickly entered the study room in the outer courtyard where Xie Yu was and reported this news to Xie Yu.

Hearing this, Xie Yu patted his head and said, “Sigh, I really neglected this problem..”
