“Of course! Your cold cakes have a unique flavor, we all love it!”
The other two agreed.
Lin Xiaoyue chatted with them a little while more and then received new guests.
After a while, the four of them finished eating the cold cakes.
“I keep wanting more. If it wasn’t for the fact that we have to go back for dinner, I really want another bowl!” A scholar said.
“That’s right. You’re closing your stall too early. When we come back after dinner, we can’t even get another bowl of cold cake.”
“Yes, you made too little cold cakes!”
…..
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“We don’t live in town, so we can’t stay too long. If 1 bring too much, it’ll be dark when we go back!”
“However, don’t worry. In the future, when the eatery is opened, it will be open until 9. If you want to eat cold cakes in the future, come to the shop before 9.”
The eyes of the three scholars lit up.
“Great!”
The few of them chatted and laughed. Under Lin Yuanshan’s urging, they finally left.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Lin Yuanshan’s back as he left, and the smile on her face slowly faded.
She had forgotten that her cheapskate fifth uncle was also in Qingyun Academy.
The Lin family had been quiet for a while, and she hoped that Lin Yuanshan would be more sensible now…
At this moment, another guest arrived.
Lin Xiaoyue continued receiving guests, collecting money and cutting cold cakes.
It didn’t take long for the last bucket of cold cakes to be sold out.
After Aunt Wang packed up, Lin Xiaoyue went into Qin Restaurant to get Li Xiao.
At this moment, he was still in the backyard, packing up the materials he had bought.
When he saw Lin Xiaoyue come in, Li Xiao stopped what he was doing.
“How is it? Have you gathered all the materials?” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and walked towards Li Xiao.
“Still waiting for the remaining half of the bricks. 1 didn’t order too much wood according to Uncle Sun’s instructions. We ll have to wait for his instruction and buy more later.”
Lin Xiaoyue nodded.
“Will you be done by tomorrow?”
“Yes. The men from the brick kiln didn’t send all the bricks because the carts weren’t arranged for today. However, they’ve already promised to deliver the goods before noon tomorrow.”
Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue, “don’t worry.”
Looking at Li Xiao’s convincing expression, Lin Xiaoyue was not worried.
“Okay. It’s getting late, let’s go back.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Alright, I’ll cover up the things. Please go and tell Mr. Qin to help us look after the store when he’s around,” he said and got busy again.
“Alright, I’ll go talk to Mr. Qin then. I’ll wait for you outside.”
“Go on.”
Lin Xiaoyue then left.
Following Li Xiao’s instructions, she went to Mr. Qin and informed him of the situation.
She asked him to help look after the materials in the backyard before closing.
After that, she and Aunt Wang waited for Li Xiao.
The two of them didn’t wait long before Li Xiao came out.
Then, the three of them got on the ox-cart and went home.
Time passed by quickly. Soon, the shop’s renovation was completed.
Lin Xiaoyue paid the workers, Uncle Sun for the furniture, and then Mr. Qin.
After everyone was paid, the money that she had saved up was almost used up again.
That afternoon, Li Xiao changed the ox-cart into a handcart..
