Adorable Food Goddess

"You are solely responsible for this." Xia Youshi added.

Ye Jiayao said without saying a word: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter-in-law will definitely make the wedding banquet more lively than the birthday banquet in Prince Helian's palace."

Xia Youshi was stunned for a moment. She agreed so readily. Wasn't he afraid that she wouldn't pay?

"Don't you ask who provided the money?" Xia You asked.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "Chunfeng is Chunyu's biological brother. Chunyu is such a biological brother. Even if the banquet is all catered by us, it is appropriate. Let's do it like this. I will cater for the banquet."

Originally, she and Chunyu planned to pay 80,000 taels of silver. Since the matter was taken care of, there was no need to give the 80,000 taels. It was the same.

Xia Youshi was secretly surprised. She didn't expect this daughter-in-law to be so generous. Moreover, she especially emphasized her younger brother, which was very pleasing to her. However, to prepare such a wedding banquet, no matter how much you save, you will need tens of thousands of taels of silver!

"It's enough that you have this heart. I'll pay for it myself. Just help me do it more decently and save a little money." Xia Youshi said.

"Mother, my daughter-in-law is serious. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law was discussing with Chunyu to see if she could be of any help. Other daughters-in-law are not good at it, but they are good at making banquets. Money doesn't matter. Heavenly Lord will take care of this month's profit first. , you can pay back the money you owe slowly, it doesn’t matter." Ye Jiayao said.

Mother Sun said: "Madam, since the second young lady has this heart, you should just accept it!"

Xia Youshi was silent for a moment: "Then I'll leave it to you. If you don't have enough money, tell me."

Ye Jiayao nodded happily: "Mom, can you promise your wife something?"

Xia Youshi said: "You say."

"Can you tell the public that you paid for the wedding banquet, and I just do the work."

Xia Youshi raised his eyebrows: "What's the point?"

Ye Jiayao smiled: "My daughter-in-law is afraid that my elder brother and sister-in-law will be embarrassed if they find out, and my embroidery workshop will not be doing well."

"But I heard her say that business is very good!" Sun's mother said.

Ye Jiayao pretended to be surprised: "No, otherwise, can eldest brother eat on credit?"

Xia Youshi's eyes darkened: "Is he living on credit in heaven?"

Ye Jiayao said: "Originally, it doesn't matter how many meals my brothers come to have. It's rare, but my wife went to see the account book today. In just this month, my eldest brother has credited 2,780 taels of silver. My wife thought that his family was in trouble. .”

Xia Youshi felt relieved and couldn't help but feel a little angry. She just didn't like Chunli's behavior and took advantage of everything. With the same temper as his third uncle, she doubted whether Chunli was the father's son.

"I know about this, please go back first!" Xia Youshi said coldly.

Ye Jiayao curled her lips when she went out. It was up to Xia You to take care of this matter. If no one took care of it, she would do it herself.

"It's not shameful to hold something that can't stand on the table." Xia Youshi was angry.

"The eldest young master is indeed a little bit different..." Sun's mother sighed.

"He always asks Chunyu and Chunfeng to borrow money privately. Don't think that I don't know anything. If I don't know how to study knowledge all day long, I just know how to play with his broken bottles and rocks. Sooner or later, his family will be ruined." You said angrily that Chunli had received average or lower grades in the Hanlin Academy exams for four consecutive years. This was because she was selling her father's face and the reputation of the Marquis of Jing'an. Otherwise, she would have been kicked out of the Hanlin Academy long ago.

"The second young master's temper is like that of a master. The brothers will not say anything even when the brothers are suffering. But there is no way to go on like this. It will be even more difficult for the second young master. Seeing that she is not a petty person, the eldest young master must have gone too far." Sun Mom said.

Xia Youshi snorted coldly: "Let me take care of this matter myself."

Ye Jiayao went back to her room, washed up and took out the farm's account book to look at it. She thought that being a young mistress would be an easy task, but in the end, it was not as easy as being a cook in heaven.

Qiao Xi brought the white fungus soup: "Second Young Mistress, this is stewed in the kitchen."

Ye Jiayao thought about the small kitchen and asked Qiao Xi, "Is there a small kitchen in the house?"

Qiao Xi said: "No, they are all cooked in the big kitchen. When the eldest young lady was pregnant, she thought about setting up a small kitchen, but my wife didn't agree."

This is troublesome. How can she study the dishes? The princess hasn't sent anything delicious for several days.

After a while, Chunyu came back with a solemn expression.

Qiao Xi undressed him, and Chunyu washed his face and came out of the clean room. Qiao Xi had already made hot tea for him.

Xia Chunyu waved his hand and asked her to go out.

"Is the situation bad?" Ye Jiayao asked with concern.

Xia Chunyu floated the tea leaves floating on it, took a sip, and sighed: "He Lianxuan is ready to go on an expedition. If he doesn't go, I'm afraid it won't be possible. The front line has been retreating continuously. Simon Khan is besieged. If the royal court is breached, If the royal power of Simon falls into the hands of Prince Azari, then we, Huai Song, will not be able to live in peace. Azali has always been opposed to Simon Huai Song's marriage, he is ambitious and warlike."

"Then...are you going?" Ye Jiayao asked worriedly. She knew that Chun Yu and He Lianxuan had always been good partners. Although Chun Yu was a palace guard, he often went on expeditions.

Xia Chunyu looked at Ye Jiayao. He wanted to go with He Lianxuan, but he couldn't trust her. Liuli would be coming in soon.

"He Lianxuan said he would go first and talk to me later if there is any use for me." Xia Chunyu said.

"Oh..." Ye Jiayao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want him to go. The risk of fighting was too great, and the weapons and weapons had no eyesight. Moreover, it sounded like the Simon people were very cruel, probably similar to the Turks in history. The nomads are brave and militant, and their tactics are flexible, making it difficult to destroy them.

"What are you looking at?" Xia Chunyu came over and took a look.

"The farm's account books."

"Do you see what's going on?"

"Not yet. We need to compare this to know whether it is just your farm that has a bad harvest or everyone else." Ye Jiayao had a headache looking at this thing. She planned to take some time to ask Zhao Qixuan.

"By the way, let me tell you something. Today, I asked you to host Chunfeng's wedding banquet. I have already agreed, including all expenses, so I didn't give out the 80,000 taels of silver notes." Ye Jiayao said.

Xia Chunyu nodded: "I'm going to have to work hard for you again."

"This little hard work is nothing. I always feel sorry for Chunfeng, so let's take it as compensation! You and I will share this part of the cost equally."

Xia Chunyu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with a smile: "So generous?"

"Don't laugh yet, here comes the stingy thing. I've been reading this month's account books in Tianshangju today. My eldest brother is a frequent visitor to Tianshangju!" Ye Jiayao said sarcastically.

Xia Chunyu looked unnatural: "Well...he is also my brother after all."

"I know you are in trouble. It will give you a headache if you put such an overconfident brother in the stall. It's okay for him to come for a few meals occasionally, but he comes so often! It's not just eating for free, but he also treats you. What a treat." Is the restaurant considered his own property? If it were really his property, he would be reluctant to eat it."

"I also heard that he often asked you to borrow money, have you ever paid it back?" Ye Jiayao asked.

Xia Chunyu hesitated: "Why are brothers so worried about each other?"

Ye Jiayao smiled brightly: "You are so generous. That's great. Whatever your brother eats in the restaurant will be yours and will be deducted from your income. I'm not that generous."

"Some people just regard politeness as a blessing and should share it accordingly. If he does that, should we go to his embroidery workshop to get all our future clothes? Is he willing? There is a need for friendship between brothers, but there must be a relationship in everything. The degree depends on what the matter is. Next time he wants to find you again, you can blame me and I will deal with him. If you dare to agree in private and make me unhappy, I will never be done with you. "Ye Jiayao warned him sternly.

Xia Chunyu was stunned, so fierce! He used his own money and didn't let her pay for it, so what?

Ye Jiayao saw through his mind at a glance and smiled coldly: "Don't say it's your money, it has nothing to do with me. Let me tell you, I hate people who take advantage of you the most. No one's money is picked up for free. It’s all hard-earned money. For such a shameless person, I would rather use it to give to the poor. Do you think what I said is ugly? You still stare? You stare? If you keep staring, don’t enter this door in the future. "

Xia Chunyu immediately looked away and murmured: "I didn't stare, my eyes were big to begin with."

"I'm not joking with you, you have to show your attitude to me today." Ye Jiayao was aggressive.

In fact, Xia Chunyu also had a headache about his eldest brother, but every time his eldest brother came to borrow money with a shy smile, he was too embarrassed to refuse.

"You are in charge, you make the decision." Xia Chunyu ignored it: "But don't make it too tense, it will make everyone's faces look bad."

"Bah, does he have a face? Can a person with a face do such a thing?" Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes.

"Look at you, don't speak so harshly! You have many ideas, can we solve it peacefully?" Xia Chunyu was really afraid that she would ignore her.

"You think I'm stupid! I've told my mother about this in a very tactful way, so that I can give her a headache."

Xia Chunyu was dumbfounded: "What? Did you tell mother? Isn't this causing trouble for mother?"

"Haha, I guess your mother is very happy. She can take this opportunity to educate your father. Your third uncle has the same virtues as your eldest brother." Ye Jiayao said disapprovingly.

Xia Chunyu was speechless.

"It's best to explain this kind of thing clearly in advance. Unless you plan to let him cheat him for the rest of his life, otherwise, if you don't borrow or give credit once, you will end up in trouble. Look at Chunfeng, just refuse it outright. Your eldest brother will be honest. I won't put my mind on him. If you want peace in your family, everyone must take care of yourself." Ye Jiayao closed the account book and climbed into bed to sleep.

Xia Chunyu sat there and pondered for a long time. What Yaoyao said was not unreasonable. It was indeed wrong if things continued like this.

"Yao Yao, Yaoyao..." Xia Chunyu put down the tea cup and touched the bed.

"What?" Ye Jiayao asked angrily.

"The male leads the outside and the female leads the inside. You have the final say in the family affairs from now on." Xia Chunyu said with a smile.

Ye Jiayao then turned around: "We agreed, you and I will unite the front."

Xia Chunyu nodded: "I firmly support you."

Ye Jiayao nuzzled into his arms with satisfaction, and said coquettishly: "Turn out the light."

Xia Chunyu was overjoyed and hurriedly turned off the lights. He excitedly went to bed and hugged her.
