Chapter 50 Chapter 050: I’m afraid she’s going to eat you

The cake only comes in five flavors, taro puree, chestnut, meat floss, caramel and original flavor.

There are three sizes of cakes. A small cake as big as a bowl costs eighty taels of silver, a single-layer cake as big as a bamboo basket costs fifty-eight taels, and a double-layer cake costs eighty-eight taels.

The price is exaggeratedly high, but Shen Zhiqing is not worried at all about not being able to sell it.

He believed that within half a month, the shop's cakes would become a popular trend across the capital.

Moreover, the ingredients for making cakes are not common. The whipped cream must be extracted from milk, and the butter must be purchased from nomads. The low-gluten flour required for cakes needs to be steamed for fifteen minutes, dried in the sun, crushed and then filtered.

Or you can add a little corn starch to ordinary flour to make low-gluten flour, but there is no corn plant in Dai Viet.

The process of making cakes is complicated and cumbersome, which makes them worthy of such high prices.

……

After the event was over, most of the passers-by were missing behind the shop door.

Many passers-by came into the shop to take a look, but when they heard the price was so high, they all left one after another.

But there were also a dozen men dressed as butlers and shopkeepers who chose to buy small cakes. Most bought one, but some bought two or three.

Shen Zhiqing was not in a hurry and directed several boys to do a good job in hygiene.

The cake shop is located on the most luxurious street in Dongcheng, with an area of ​​about 150 square meters and a double-layer structure.

The store is decorated in light colors, and the cakes are placed in three transparent diorama cabinets, one and a half meters long, half a meter wide and one meter high.

Glass cabinets look as exquisite and beautiful as works of art.

Three such large glass cabinets were designed by Shen Zhiqing and specially made by Western merchants. They cost a total of three thousand taels.

Dai Viet cannot yet make glass.

There are seven tables and thirty-five chairs in the cake shop, and screens and gauze are used to separate the shelves and cash registers.

It looks like a modern cake shop.

The second floor is also a seating area, with twelve tables and sixty chairs.

There are many novel toys inside, as well as hundreds of story books.

There were not many customers in the store at this time. Cheng Yurong took a few children into the store to buy cakes and sat in the innermost seat, drinking scented tea and eating cakes.

Mrs. Tan also came with her daughters to support her, bought six cakes at once, and sat down next to Cheng Yurong.

Mrs. Cheng and her three daughters-in-law from Cheng Mansion also came to the cake shop with their children to support them.

Seeing Shen Zhiqing recover and return to the handsome young man he was three years ago, they couldn't believe it was really him.

Passers-by who were watching outside saw that the cake shop was full of customers, not fifty but thirty, and they began to believe that the cakes in the cake shop were delicious.

"Brother Qing, let grandma take a look at you." Mrs. Cheng waved her hand and called Shen Zhiqing, who was entertaining guests, to come to her.

After sending the guests away, he hurried to the seating area.

"Grandma, eldest aunt, second aunt, third aunt." After greeting each other, he stood next to Mrs. Cheng and filled her with a cup of sweet scented tea.

"You child has suffered. You have taken good care of your body now, but you must cherish your future happiness and don't let your parents worry about it anymore." Mrs. Cheng carefully touched Shen Zhiqing's arm, and the full touch under her hand made her I believe this grandson will recover.

Although she has not seen him in the past three years, she has seen several patients who took Wu Shi Powder.

Each one is pale and thin, afraid of light and heat.

The appearance of illness is like a ghost.

"Grandma, don't worry. I will live a good life and never make any mistakes again." "That's good..." Mrs. Cheng didn't doubt anything.

Auntie Lin was curious about how Shen Zhiqing could recover so well, as if she had never taken Wu Shi Powder.

It stands to reason that even if the patient is detoxified, it is impossible for the patient's body to recover as thin as a stick. In addition, taking Wushi Powder for a long time will poison the brain. This is irreversible damage and is completely impossible to recover.

But she didn't ask on the spot. She thought it was Shen Hong who found the miracle doctor for Shen Zhiqing.

If only her son could...

Mrs. Lin found Cheng Yurong and asked who the miracle doctor who cured Shen Zhiqing was.

Cheng Yurong hesitated and hesitated. "I don't want to ask the miracle doctor to help Qing'er take good care of herself."

She put the credit on not asking for a miracle cure.

"Really? Yu Niang, can you help me or ask for a recommendation from a miracle doctor? You know Yang'er's situation, he is your eldest nephew, you have to help him." Aunt Lin's eyes were moist, and she held her hand Cheng Yurong's hand.

"Sister-in-law, I understand how you feel. Yang'er is my eldest nephew. How can I, my aunt, bear it?"

"Then can you help me find a miracle doctor..."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult...if I don't ask for the miracle doctor, he has returned to Yaowang Valley and rarely comes out." Cheng Yurong did not dare to accept this request. She lowered her eyes and looked at Ruan Ruan.

Only my daughter has the magic medicine in the world, but it is hard to find and requires countless merits.

Seeing her mother's distressed look, Ruan Ruan laughed until her whole body shook.

[Mom, you look so funny. If you don’t agree to your eldest aunt, I’m afraid she will eat you. 】

"You little girl..." Cheng Yurong heard her daughter's thoughts and pinched her nose angrily.

Does your daughter mean that she agreed to help?

At this time, Shen Zhiyu returned to the seating area from the back door of the cake shop.

"Grandma, aunt, you are here."

"Brother Yu? Are you Brother Yu?" Lin was shocked.

She met Shen Zhiyu once two months ago. At the engagement party, he was still very fat. How come it was only two months ago that his figure had returned to normal?
Second aunt Liu and third aunt Chen were also very surprised and curious.

Even if Shen Zhiqing recovered in just half a year, why did Shen Zhiyu recover in just two months?
"Auntie, it's me." Shen Zhiyu knew everyone's doubts, but was in no hurry to explain.

Cheng Yurong said with a smile: "At the end of March, my husband invited the doctor Buqiu and Master He Daozi to the capital to diagnose Brother Yu's condition. They found that Brother Yu's body suddenly became obese. It was a physical problem, so they worked together to treat him. Cure.

The treatment only lasted three and a half months, and Brother Yu quickly recovered. "

Some truths are concealed, and the less people know about them, the less dangerous they are.

"Brother Qing and Brother Yu are lucky to be healthy again." Lin's eyes flashed with sadness. It would be great if her Yang'er could also regain his sanity.

Mrs. Cheng captured the sadness of her eldest daughter-in-law, and she couldn't help but feel sad when she thought that her eldest grandson had become a fool.

"Brother Qing, Brother Yu, your parents have paid so much for you, you must be filial to them in the future."

"Yes! We will keep it in mind."

"Yu'er, you are lucky." Mrs. Cheng patted the back of Cheng Yurong's hand, her eyes hinting at her to help her sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, Yang'er's good fortune is yet to come, please wait a few more days." Cheng Yurong felt much relieved knowing that her daughter would help.

"Alas..." Mrs. Lin sighed. When she turned to look at her son, she found Ruan Ruan being held in his arms.
