CH 40.1

This is simply a chef’s paradise.

The Poison Lady put all her energy to cook, and that night’s dinner was a sumptuous meal.

After the Poison Lady set the dishes, Baofu went to the room and called Ji Yunxi.

Ji Yunxi put down the abacus in her hand and was about to get up when she saw Baofu’s angry face. Both her cheeks were as angry as puffer fish.

When Ji Yunxi saw it, she laughed on the spot: “What’s the matter? Who provoked you?”

Baofu said angrily: “Miss! I just went to the granary and heard Guye and his housekeeper talking. They were talking about you!”

Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows: “Oh? What did they say about me?”

Baofu leaned over and told Ji Yunxi what Wu Weian said exactly.

Ji Yunxi hummed, and said solemnly: “I see.”

Baofu looked at her Miss’ face and thought that Guye will definitely get punished well later. See how her Miss will clean him up! He actually dared to speak ill of Miss behind Miss’ back!

When Baofu followed Ji Yunxi into the main hall for dinner, Wu Wei’an just came back from the granary.

Baofu immediately rolled her eyes again, and didn’t even want to look at him.

Ji Yunxi took this into account. She sat down at the table, and then asked Baofu and the others to withdraw to eat as well.

When she eats, she never needs servants to wait on her.

Soon, she and Wu Wei’an were the only ones left on the table.

Wu Wei’an looked at the table full of delicacies and pondered which one to eat first.

Sometimes, too many choices is not a good thing.

Wu Wei’an thought happily.

Ji Yunxi glanced at him and asked coldly: “I heard you scolded me behind my back?”

The movement of the chopsticks in Wu Wei’an’ hand paused, and he showed an unbelievable look: “Oh my, when did I scold you?”

Ji Yunxi snorted: “You said I have a vicious heart?”

Wu Wei’an denied it instantly, and his face was serious: “I never said that. Yun Niang, you must not listen to other people’s provocation.”

Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows: “So, you really think I have a vicious heart?”

“Yun Niang, why do you think like that?” Wu Wei’an turned around and faced Ji Yunxi. His face was straight and his eyes were full of affection. “How is my heart towards you, don’t you know about it clearly?”

Ji Yunxi snorted coldly: “It better be like that. I don’t want this kind of thing to happen for the second time. Do you understand?”

Wu Wei’an nodded, touched his nose and sighed: “Understood.”

The two began to eat, and during the meal it was very quiet, but the atmosphere was not awkward.

Ji Yunxi has never been a talkative person, and she has a very stable manner. Under any circumstances, she will not be the one who is embarrassed.

Wu Wei’an is even more so. He has never known what thick skin was. The feeling of embarrassment will not appear on him too.

After half of the meal’s time, Wu Wei’an suddenly sighed.

Ji Yunxi glanced at him, took a piece of fish and ignored him.

Then Wu Wei’an sighed again.

Ji Yunxi was speechless: “What’s wrong with you?”

Wu Wei’an said: “Don’t you think that your maid has a bad attitude towards me?”

Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows: “So?”

Wu Wei’an: “Can’t you talk to her and let her treat me better?”

Ji Yunxi made an ‘oh’ sound and then said: “But I never take care of Baofu, and everything is up to her.”

Wu Wei’an advised: “There are ways to lead one’s own subordinates. Your maid, you should take good care of her.”

Ji Yunxi glanced sideways at him and suddenly said: “Do you know when I started making money?”

Hearing her mention this, Wu Wei’an also became interested. He also wanted to learn from those who have had experiences: “When?”

Ji Yunxi showed an unfathomable look: “Since Baofu came to my house, I named her Baofu. In short, since then, my business has become better and better, bigger and bigger, and the money I earn also becomes more and more.”
