She pursed her lips and said, "This question has something in mon with Brother Xinian’s question earlier. Brother Xinian originally wanted to go to Ke Kuli by himself, and he only went for half a month, so how could he suddenly want to e back? Of course, it’s one thing to want to, since my family and I are here. I think every Supervisor Guard would miss home, right? But before, when he went on missions, he also went away for half a year at a time, and I never saw him drop everything to rush back home in the middle of it."
"I always said Xiao Chiang seemed like such a sensible child," said Madam Cui.
mander Cui twitched his mouth.
Now he seemed like a Little Firecracker, how was he not considered insensible?
This was the first time he had encountered a young girl who left him with no chance to speak.
However, for one, his wife was protecting her, and for another, at his age, he couldn’t truly be bothered with a young girl so easily.
"So what’s the meaning behind those tea cakes and paintings you sent?"
Upon hearing mander Cui ask this, Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but find it amusing.
She suddenly felt that the old Alliance Official had a little childish temper.
When visiting someone, bringing some things over, and being asked what they mean?
Did they expect her to bluntly say it’s to please Madam Cui? This is a society built on human relationships. If you want the host family to have a good impression of you, of course, you have to bring some useful gifts.
But what she gave was genuinely heartfelt.
The tea cakes, she made herself.
The paintings, she painted them.
Perhaps in their eyes, these things weren’t worth much, but in fact, what she gave, despite being heartfelt, were quite expensive items.
"mander Cui, I have another identity," Jiang Xiao suddenly pursed her lips into a smile and said, "Perhaps I’m used to seeing that the big figures I meet have investigated me, so I didn’t explain too clearly. mander Cui hasn’t investigated me or inquired about me, right? I really appreciate that. My other identity is the owner of a tea shop in the Capital City, and the name of the tea shop is Youqingwei."
"Tea shop? Owner?" mander Cui looked at her in astonishment.
Is she really in need of money?
A painter, and also opened a tea shop?
Can art and business really be mentioned in the same breath?
How did she manage this, being a painter and opening a tea shop?
"Yes. It seems like it doesn’t conflict, right? My tea shop is doing quite well, and the ambiance is very good." Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but feel a bit proud as she said this.
"Also, those tea cakes are also items sold in my tea shop. Of course, now I’ve opened a craftsmen’s workshop, specializing in making those tea cakes and tea packaging, only the tea cakes I brought to Madam are made by myself at home. The ingredients for these tea cakes are selected from very, very high-quality materials, which are beneficial for health. I know Madam has a heart condition, so I brought these tea cakes over."
"Just a few pieces of snacks, could they really have any effect?"
"What if I told you that I also used water brewed with a Hundred-Year Ganoderma in the snacks I made?"
Jiang Xiao’s words made Madam Cui open her eyes wide in surprise.
"Hundred-Year Ganoderma?"
"Yes, so if you visit my tea shop, you’ll find that the tea and snacks there are very expensive."
Jiang Xiao very candidly said, "Because of this, I’ve even been reported before."
This young girl at such a young age, how many things has she stirred up?
