Aunt Deng laughed twice: "This way, we don't have to show our faces in public, and we can earn money at home."

Whoever is entrusted with this task can make money together.

It’s a great thing.

Aunt Deng does have this kind of vision.

But precisely because I have it, I can't help but want to give it to my eldest son and his wife.

The couple now grows vegetables, and although they can make some money, it is also hard work, and the income is limited. If they can seize this opportunity——

After hearing what Auntie Deng said, Xie Wanqing was a little unsure: "Is it okay? Is it really okay? What if no one buys it?"

"If it tastes good, people will buy it." Aunt Deng was full of confidence: "It's not hard to make money now. People have some money, not as tight as they were during the war. Besides, those who take the imperial examinations, no matter how poor they are, can afford even a piece of cake!"

Zhuangyuan Cake, what a great name!

If she were to take part in the imperial examination, she would buy one to try!

Aunt Deng's self-confidence greatly encouraged Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Hongyu said happily: "Then Auntie, go and call Brother Luo back! And then spread this matter?"

Gao Yu watched with a smile and couldn't help but join in: "We still need to make some first and try it. It can't be too bad. Also, we need to figure out the cost and price so that we don't get flustered later."

Xie Wanqing nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Even Aunt Deng approved of Gao Yu.

Gao Yu was so happy when he was praised that his eyebrows fluttered. He no longer felt tired or annoyed when working with them.

Of course, Xu Yun was unaware of the excitement outside.

She was so immersed in the library that she didn't pay any attention to what was happening outside.

Until a plate of pastries appeared in front of her.

Xu Yun had just come out of the library and was still a little confused. He looked at the cakes in front of him and hesitated: "Did you buy new cakes? New ones? I've never seen them before—"

Gao Yu put his hands on his hips and said proudly: "This is the champion cake! Come and try it, I made it myself!"

She was too embarrassed to say that this was the only thing she had done that Xie Wanqing liked.

But she looked at Xu Yun expectantly.

As Gao Yu was looking at him like this, Xu Yun picked up a piece of the top scholar cake. Before he even took a bite, he praised it, "It really looks like a top scholar's hat! It looks delicious! It must have taken a lot of effort and thought~!"

Gao Yu was overjoyed by Xu Yun's praise.

After Xu Yun put it into his mouth and tasted it carefully, he praised: "It's not dry or greasy, it tastes sweet and delicious!"

Gao Yu was so overwhelmed by the praise that he made a bold promise: "If you like it, I will do it for you every day until the imperial examination is over!"

After Xu Yun finished a piece of cake, he smiled and refused: "Just eat it once for good luck, there's no need to eat it every day, you're working too hard."

"It's not hard. In fact, the one who worked the hardest was my aunt. She led us to do it." Gao Yu was a little embarrassed, but her eyes were bright and full of admiration: "I didn't know my aunt was so great!"

Xu Yun didn't know about this either.

She was also surprised: "My mother?"

Gao Yu pulled Xu Yun out to see: "Look, we did so much in one afternoon."

Xu Yun was stunned by the spectacular pastries.

How should I put it? There are really a lot.

How long will it take to eat this? Or is it for gift giving?

However, after looking carefully, Xu Yun also discovered that the shapes made by Gao Yu were indeed not as beautiful as those outside.

Xie Wanqing saw Gao Yu coming out, raised her elbow to wipe the sweat off her forehead, and said with a smile: "Ah Yun, how is your meal? Is there anything else you need to improve?"

Xu Yun shook her head: "It tastes great. No need to improve. Mother, did you make so many cakes? Are you going to give them to the neighbors?"

Aunt Deng shook her head: "No, we plan to sell it."

Chen Huaniang came over from the corner gate in a hurry: "I'm here, mother, what's the emergency?"

Xu Yun was extremely surprised - how did he think of selling this?

After she heard all their plans, Xu Yun couldn't help but admire them.

They planned to make it at home, and after it was done, Chen Huaniang would sell it to others. It didn't matter whether others sold it in the shop or carried baskets and hawked it on the street.

Chen Huaniang's guests were introduced by Aunt Deng.

Aunt Deng does street work every day and is familiar with the situation of each household.

She knows which family is in business, which family is short of money, and which family has many children who can do this.

In addition, Chen Huaniang is her daughter-in-law, which naturally gives others an extra layer of trust in her.

Aunt Deng smiled and said, "There are many of Dalang's comrades who can also do this. Although they only do it for more than a month, they can still make a lot of money."

No one would complain about having too much money.

Aunt Deng smiled and said, "If others ask, just say it's Dalang and his wife's business. Your mother just contributed some effort. It won't affect you when the time comes."

Seeing that they had thought of everything, what else could Xu Yun say?

Xu Yun couldn't help laughing when he saw Xie Wanqing, who was so happy that she seemed to be glowing. "If you want to do it, go for it. But it's better to print Qingji's name on the cakes, so that even if someone else copies them, they can't be distinguished. It will be convenient if you want to do this again next year."

If you really want to make a name for yourself, you can do it even during the imperial examination period, not to mention during normal times.

Although Xie Wanqing knew that Xu Yun would not object, she was also happy and excited to see Xu Yun's support.

Xu Yun took Xie Wanqing's arm and wiped her sweat: "But don't tire yourself out, mother."

Xie Wanqing said quickly: "There are so many people here, I won't be too tired. I will also pay attention."

Xu Yun smiled broadly: "Then I will wait for my mother to support me in the future!"

Xie Wanqing also felt very proud: "Okay, wait for your mother to make money to support you!"

Chen Huaniang was also overjoyed: "When we make a lot of money, Ah Yun, I will buy you writing brushes, inkstones and paper!"

Xu Yun was stunned by Chen Huaniang's generosity.

Seeing Xie Wanqing was about to refuse, Auntie Deng quickly said, "Of course, of course! If she doesn't buy it, I'll be the first to say no!"

Chen Huaniang laughed: "Buy it, definitely buy it!"

As he was talking, Luo Zhan followed Luo Yuan in from outside, looking confused: "Such a big thing, why didn't anyone discuss it with me?"

Not only did he not discuss it, but he was also the last one to know!

Auntie Deng glared at Luo Zhan and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Why would I discuss this with you? Do you still want to object?"

She looked like she would slap Luo Zhan if he dared to say anything against it!

Luo Zhan couldn't help but stare: "What did I say? I didn't say anything!"

It looks like you want to hit someone for no reason!

And he is a general himself!

How dignified!

Of course, he didn't dare to say this out loud. After all, she was his own mother, and he could really beat her if he said so.

He looked at Xu Yun, not giving up: "When did you know?"
