The wife of a powerful minister?Don't worry, I'll take back my destiny first

Ye Xi also found a snack shop in Kaiyang County, and Sangtian found a two-story building with a yard.

After Ye Xi saw the environment, he immediately started to renovate it: cheap and ordinary snacks are sold downstairs, and high-end snacks are sold on the second floor, which can also be customized.

The name is still Xile Pastries and Snacks Shop, but after it opens, Ye Xi plans to close the shop at home.

Home is where the family lives, and it is better to be quiet.

Ye Xi took Ni Chen back to Xinghua Village while the shop was being renovated.

As for the pastry shop, Xiao Tai's secret guards were idle, so why not come to the pastry shop to help her sell things. Ye Xi didn't use them in vain. He issued a monthly quota to them according to the market conditions in Kaiyang County every month.

Although the money was less, it gave the secret guards a completely different experience and gave them the addiction of being ordinary people.

Ye Xi returned to Xinghua Village and went straight back to Xiyuan.

Sure enough, as she expected, Ni's father, Ni's mother, Ni Hua and several brothers were working hard behind the Xiyuan house.

Today's Xiyuan is almost unrecognizable to Ye Xi.

In just half a month, the Ni family built several more houses.

Behind the house, Ye Xi also saw an unexpected person - Li Zheng, Ni Ruishan, and Ni Zhen, who were also sweating profusely in the ground.

"Grandma~milk!"

Ni Chen's crisp voice made several people who were working hard stop.

"Chen'er! Ye Xi! You are back!"

Mother Ni dropped her hoe in surprise and ran down the hillside.

"You are back? Where is Ni Ge?" Ni's mother glanced behind Ye Xi and was a little disappointed when she didn't see Ni Ge's face.

Ye Xi held Ni's mother's arm and smiled: "Ni Ge is in the academy and will not come back before the provincial examination. If mother misses Ni Ge, she can go to the county town with us to live for a while."

Ni's mother smiled and refused: "It's better to forget about going to the county seat. Now is the most critical time to store grain. It's better to grow more grain to feel more at ease."

Ye Xi knew that Ni's mother had worked hard all her life, and if she really wanted to rest, she would not be used to it.

"Ye Xi, come and see how much food we have harvested during this period." Ni's mother proudly pulled Ye Xi towards the newly built houses.

Ye Xi walked over and opened the door and saw that it was filled with food.

"Let me tell you, there is still some food. We have hidden it in the underground passage. There are several basements down there. They are all very large and they are almost full now."

"Uncle Li Zheng said that if we continue at this rate, even if there is a snowstorm this year, our Xinghua Village will be able to save ourselves."

Ye Xi also quietly asked Ni's mother: "Why does Grandpa Lizheng grow food with you?"

Ni's mother said, "I was coming home to look for your father that day. I saw the sweet potatoes piled in the house and we were building a house, so I asked what was going on?"

"Your father remembered what you said that there would be a snowstorm this winter, so he told Uncle Li Zheng. He also told him the magic of these lands. Uncle Li Zheng immediately called Ni Zhen to follow us. Farm.”

"Don't worry, your grandpa Li Zheng is a trustworthy person. He knows the importance of these things and will not tell them."

"Only Uncle Li Zheng and his son Ni Zhen know about this. We didn't even tell your grandparents."

Ye Xi had a meal at home, left them a sum of money and enough snacks for a month, and returned to the county town.

Three days later, Xile Dessert Shop moved. The two-story shop looked very stylish at first glance.

The first floor mainly sells fried melon seeds, fried peanuts, fried beans, fried chestnuts and other roasted goods, as well as some candies and biscuits purchased from the mall. Ye Xi said his requirements for these items, and the packaging must meet the national conditions of Xuanyue Kingdom. .

Unexpectedly, even Ni Ge couldn't tell anything about the packaging the mall gave her, so Ye Xi dared to sell it in a big way. You can buy ten of the cheapest candies for a penny, and many ordinary people are willing to buy some to make their children happy.

The pastries and candies on the second floor are much more exquisite than those on the first floor, and of course the prices are more expensive.

But for those with money, the pricing is not too expensive.

The most expensive item is undoubtedly the tailor-made birthday cake. Once launched, reservations have been reserved for two months.

Ye Xi quickly ordered the cake from the mall, put it in the space container, wrote the name and delivery date, and handed it to Sang Lu. Just in case, Ye Xi also taught Sang Lu how to make cakes.

Since Sanlu learned how to make cakes, she has been keen on making various pastries. Ye Xi found relevant books for her and asked her to study them by herself.

Now, Sang Lu has transformed from a secret guard to Ye Xi's exclusive housekeeper. She has full authority to take care of all matters in Ye Xi's shop.

Sang Lu was also very talented in business and suggested that Ye Xi stock up on goods and prepare for wholesale.

As soon as Ye Xi's eyes lit up, he bought thousands of kilograms of various pastries and put them in space containers and gave them to Sang Lu.

As for how Sang Lu will develop and grow in the future, Ye Xi doesn't care.

On the third day of October, Ni Ge, Dong Yuzhi, Yue Ping, Wang Xiuchun and other fifteen talented people from Kaiyang County packed their bags, said goodbye to Guan Chenyun, and went to Yandu, the provincial capital, to participate in the provincial examination.

This year, because Emperor Dongfang Ming asked Master Tianshi to predict good and bad luck, the rural examination that was supposed to be held in August was changed to October 15th.

Therefore, students rushing to take the exam will have a much colder journey.

At Xile Dessert Shop's branch in Fuyangfu, Sang Lu is already in full swing.

Ye Xi took Ni Chen and set off with Ni Ge, preparing to open the Xile Dessert Shop to Yandu.

Normally, it takes about seven days to travel from Kaiyang County to Yandu by land and only three days by water.

Therefore, Ni Ge chose to take the water route so that he could have more time to prepare when he arrived in Yandu.

On the first day, Ye Xi and Ni Chen were basically on the deck, looking at the natural scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

When Ni Ge was reading and taking a break, he would also come out to accompany the mother and son, causing his classmates to joke: "Brother Ni, you and your sister-in-law are really deeply in love as a married couple."

Ni Ge smiled and was noncommittal. His attitude was regarded as the default by everyone.

Ye Xi also responded to everyone's request and cooked a delicious meal for everyone.

Everyone ate delicious food and looked at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, feeling that the gods were nothing more than that.

Such days were so carefree and comfortable that Ye Xi was somewhat addicted to them.

Suddenly, a cry of exclamation came from the boat: "Someone has fallen into the water! Help!"

Ye Xi and Ni Ge abandoned their jobs and rushed to the bow. They saw a small boat in front of them hit the reef. Several people on the boat fell into the water and were struggling in the rapids.

Ni Ge didn't have time to think too much, jumped off the boat and swam towards those people.

The sailors on the ship also jumped into the water and quickly rescued the people on the ship.

After Ni Ge got on the boat, the woman he rescued still hugged his neck and refused to let go.

Ye Xi looked at this scene with a half-smile, took Ni Chen's hand and turned around to leave.

Ni Ge's face turned dark, he pushed the woman away with all his strength, and shouted at Ye Xi: "Madam, wait for me."
