Chapter 294: I Have You!

After racking his brains, Ji Ting’an finally thought of a good way to apologize.
He kept putting food into Qin Minghong’s bowl at the dining table.
Soon, the blue and white porcelain bowl in front of Qin Minghong had been piled into a small mountain.
“Brother Qin, don’t stand on ceremony. You must eat more!”
“Come, come, have another bowl of soup!’
“This fried shrimp ball is not bad either. Quick, try it?”
Ji Ting’an, who was exceptionally enthusiastic, did not notice Qin Minghong’s darkening expression.
Ji Zhao coughed silently. “Official Ji, why don’t you try my cooking too?”
Shen Yao also refilled Ji Ting’an’s bowl of soup at the right time.
“Okay, okay, okay.” Ji Ting’an finally calmed down and drank the soup with a smile.
However, when he took a sip of the soup, his eyes lit up.
“This soup? Why is it so fresh?”
“This soup is made from two ingredients, winter melon and bitter melon. I also added some dried shrimp and conpoy into it, so it tastes very fresh,” Ji Zhao explained softly with a faint smile.
“It’s that simple?” Ji Ting’an clearly did not believe it. “Such a delicious soup uses so few ingredients?’
“Only by using the simplest ingredients to make the most delicious soup can one show the extraordinary culinary skills of the chef,” Shen Yao could not help but say.
He did not like anyone questioning Ji Zhao’s culinary skills, even if the other party was a county magistrate.
Ji Ting’an also realized that his words were a little offensive, so he could only smile awkwardly. “Madam Shen, I’m not questioning your culinary skills. I’m just a little surprised. I’ve long heard that the business at Spring Breeze Pavilion is doing well. Now, I finally understand the reason.’ “Madam Shen’s culinary skills are indeed extraordinary.”
“Official Ji, you’re too kind.” Ji Zhao smiled nonchalantly.
Perhaps the sudden change in the atmosphere was a little awkward, so when Qin Minghong said goodbye, Ji Ting’an did not ask him to stay.
As for Ji Zhao, before she left, she reiterated the horror of the locust plague and vaguely reminded Ji Ting’an.
After leaving the county office, she felt that something was wrong. And this trace of abnormality came from Shen Yao, who was beside her.
‘What’s wrong?”
“Zhaozhao, you seem to be especially tolerant of that Official Ji?” Shen Yao frowned slightly. After struggling for a while, he still said what was on his mind frankly. “Just now, during the meal, you looked at him more than you looked at me.’
Pfft—
Ji Zhao couldn’t help but laugh.
Looking at her laughing so hard, Shen Yao could not help but smile.
“Husband.” Ji Zhao suddenly hugged his arm intimately and called out with a smile, “I’m already your wife!”
Hearing the word ‘husband’, Shen Yao felt his earlobes burning.
“During the meal just now, Official Ji spoke the most! Isn’t the most basic respect for a person to look into his eyes when he’s talking?” Ji Zhao smiled calmly. “However, Official Ji’s eyes are not as good-looking as my husband’s.”
“Re… Really?” Shen Yao instantly burst with joy.
“Of course, my husband is the most handsome person!” Ji Zhao spared no effort in praising him.
In the end, Shen Yao could not stand it anymore. “Am I really that good in Zhaozhao’s eyes? ‘
‘Yes!’ Ji Zhao nodded vigorously.
The smile in Shen Yao’s eyes deepened. He could not help but rub her cheek. “Zhaozhao, you’re the best.”
“Hubby, actually, there’s another reason why I looked at Official Ji just now.” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and decided to speak her true thoughts. “Official Ji might know who my biological parents are. ”
“This?” Shen Yao’s expression immediately turned solemn. After pondering for a moment, he looked sideways into Ji Zhao’s eyes and asked gently, “Zhaozhao, have you ever thought of looking for your biological parents?’
When the original owner of the body, JiAh Tao, was very young, she had ‘accidentally’ heard about her background from Madam Xie. At first, the original owner of the body was also sad for a period of time. Later on, under Old Master Ji’s care, she gradually became less injured.
Ji Zhao shook her head. “Never.”
“Aren’t you curious at all?”
“I believe in Heaven’s will.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly. A faint dimple appeared on her delicate and gentle face, making her look very cute. “1 keep feeling that if there’s fate, I’ll definitely meet them in the future.”
“Besides, don’t I have you guys now?’ Ji Zhao smiled and counted on his fingers. “Father and Mother dote on me very much. Eldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-law, Second Brother, and Second Sister-in-law also take good care of me. Chenchen also respects me as his sister. Most importantly, I have you!’ I have you!
This extremely ordinary sentence made Shen Yao’s heart soften instantly.
He immediately reached out and hugged Ji Zhao. He said firmly, “That’s right. You have me.’
“Cough, cough.” Qin Minghong, who had been walking in front, suddenly turned around and looked at the two people leaning against each other. He said in a deep voice, “It’s broad daylight. Watch yourselves.”
“Brother Qin, don’t worry.” Shen Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Zhaozhao and I are legally husband and wife. Others will only feel envious when they see us being intimate!’
Qin Minghong suddenly hated the term ‘legally.’
“Ah Tao, there are still a few things I don’t understand about the acquisition of the crops in advance. Why don’t we return to the restaurant first and continue to discuss it?” Qin Minghong said righteously.
“Alright, I also want to talk to Brother Qin about building a brewery.”
An hour later.
Shen Yao could not help but feel jealous when he heard them chatting happily.
Why didn’t he realize that Qin Minghong was a little detestable in the past?
Fortunately, he could understand the plan they were talking about. He could even make some appropriate suggestions.
When the sky turned dark, they finally ended the topic.
“In that case, once the brewery is put into use, the supply of this food will always be less than the demand?” Qin Minghong was attracted by the scene depicted by Ji Zhao. Beer was cheap and could be mass-produced. Once it entered the market, it would definitely be able to recover its capital quickly.
Then they could take this opportunity to make a considerable profit.
“Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded firmly. ‘Therefore, Brother Qin might as well adopt Official Ji’s suggestion and buy the crops in advance. This way, it can also benefit the people!”
“Then you want to invest?”
‘Yes!’ Ji Zhao continued to nod. “Shen Yao and I have also saved a sum of money. We also plan to use this money to buy food, but we have to prioritize Shanghe Village and Pomegranate Village. As for the shares, it’s the same as before. I’ll take the technical shares. After all, I’m the only one who knows the process of brewing beer. What do you think, Brother Qin?”
“Of course I’ll agree..” Qin Minghong waved the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile, “Even if I can’t be your husband, it’s not bad to be a big brother you trust! “
