Chapter 196 Honey Date and Walnut Pastry

Half an hour later, the jujube and walnut pastry was ready. The outer crust was crispy and the filling was sweet. This was different from other pastries and was also more suitable for drinking beverages and tea. It could also be stored for a longer time.

After Xu Qingmeng finished, she said, "You two try practicing these two first. Just like before, whoever does them well will get the recipe."

"Yes, boss."

After Xu Qingmeng finished, she originally wanted to take Xinting back with her, but the little girl wanted to stay and practice more, so she didn't say anything and packed some of the newly made pastries to take back to the restaurant.

They left some for the He family and also sent some to Gu Yunyi.

Both Mrs. He and Gu Yunyi had a particular fondness for jujube cake, and they ate several pieces before stopping.

"Is this a new product that the shop has prepared?"

"Well, isn't this the season for jujubes? I'm thinking of letting them learn first, and if the feedback is good, we might be able to buy up all the jujubes in the village."

The Xu family might not have enough, but they're not the only ones in the village with such wealth. Besides, her father is the village chief. If they can help the village, it will make the villagers remember the Xu family's good deeds more.

Gu Yunyi reached out and took a piece of jujube cake, but did not put it directly into his mouth.

Instead, they broke it open with their hands, picked out the jujubes inside, put them in their mouths, and savored them slowly.

Xu Qingmeng then saw him put the cake back, frowned, and lightly tapped his hand: "What are you doing? Where did you learn this bad habit?"

Gu Yunyi looked guilty, then looked at her with a wronged expression: "When Yun Sheng only ate the filling of the bun and didn't eat the skin, I didn't see you say anything?"

Xu Qingmeng was both angry and amused after hearing this.

"Yun Sheng is young, and you're young too? Besides, Yun Sheng also got beaten up in the end."

Xu Qingmeng recalled that she was the one who stopped her back then. She said that the child was still young and she couldn't hit her for everything. She should reason with her and she would understand.

Gu Yunyi also said at the time that when children are naughty, they should be disciplined, otherwise they will not learn their lesson.

Gu Jia's parenting style is the same as most people's: if someone is disobedient, they get a beating. There's nothing that a beating can't solve, and this is actually the same in modern times.

Although Xu Qingmeng has never been married or raised children, she still thinks this concept is not good, but sometimes she may also think that it is a way to solve problems quickly.

"How can they be the same? Mother is the elder," Gu Yunyi muttered softly.

"Should I ask my mother to come?" Xu Qingmeng glanced at him.

"No need for that, my wife. I'm just a little full. I can't finish this one," Gu Yunyi said ingratiatingly.

"Can't eat it, yet you break it apart?"

Gu Yunyi coughed twice: "I'm just lying in bed all day, and I've been having a bit of a craving lately."

Xu Qing rolled her eyes at him: "......"

The two grew closer and closer, and he became more and more unrestrained in his nature, showing no restraint in front of her.

Actually, it's her fault!

"Get out!"

Xu Qingmeng ignored him and took all the snacks away, but she left him the ones he broke off.

Before Xu Qingmeng left, Gu Yunyi looked at her belly and wondered when she would give birth and when he could finally share a room with his wife.
That time, he lay down the entire time...

"Why are these being served? Yun Sheng and Yun Mo's were all saved," Madam He said upon seeing them.

"Yunyi isn't eating much anymore, he's having indigestion." "That's true, he's lying in bed all day and doesn't exercise."

"She looks much better now, so I guess she can get out of bed and walk around a bit."

"Can it be done?"

"No problem. Yunyi's injuries have healed a lot. Only his shoulder needs to be rested. Getting out of bed is no problem, as long as he doesn't move his arm."

"That's fine, that's fine."

The courtyard wasn't very big, so Gu Yunyi naturally heard everything from inside the house. He was quite happy to be allowed to get out of bed, even if he could only wander around the courtyard.

At this time, Zhou Yuanjia's injuries were not as severe as Gu Yunyi's, and he had almost recovered.

She even came to see Gu Yunyi yesterday.

I had planned to come again today, but unexpectedly, one of Zhou's uncles, who lived in another county, sent a message yesterday saying that he had passed away.

Zhou Yuanjia was almost fully recovered, and since the accountant Zhou couldn't leave, he was sent to offer condolences.

Two days earlier, Aunt Zhou had come to Gu's Restaurant to look for Mrs. He.

He Shi naturally knew Zhou's purpose in coming, so she pulled Xu Qingmeng along. Of course, Xu Qingmeng did not hide anything from Zhou and told her about everything that happened at home.

Xu Qingmeng didn't show any favoritism. It wouldn't be good to hide what kind of person her second sister-in-law was, but she did tell her. Things are much better now, and Xu's father is handling everything at home.

Xu Erge also said that his younger siblings didn't need Xinting to help them; she just needed to live her own life.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhou's smile widened even more.

After all, the Gu family was going to the prefectural city. Although Zhou Yuanjia was also going to study at the prefectural school, the old couple couldn't go. Moreover, with their son's stupidity, if he lost such a good daughter-in-law, she would be devastated.

Aunt Zhou also explained her family's situation and mentioned that the Gu family was going to the prefectural city to buy a courtyard house. She took Zhou Yuanjia to see it together, and the two families would buy one house for convenience.

The group tacitly agreed that their relationship had been out in the open, and Aunt Zhou even mentioned that Zhou Yuanjia had fallen in love with Xinting at first sight.

Now all that's left is to ask Xinting's opinion. If she agrees, then Aunt Zhou will find a matchmaker to formally visit the family.

After Aunt Zhou left, Xu Qingmeng said, "How come it's so fast?"

"This is fast? Your Aunt Zhou thinks it's too slow. We're going to the prefectural city soon, and Zhou Yuanjia is going there too. But your Aunt Zhou and the others can't go. That's why they want to settle Xinting's affairs as soon as possible."

Madam He discussed with Xu Qingmeng that she would talk to Xinting about it when they went to bed tonight. Xu Qingmeng didn't know how to say it, so she said, "Mother, you should do it."

"This child will soon be a parent."

When I go to bed at night, although I don't know how to talk to Xinting, I can still talk to Gu Yunyi.

After Xu Qingmeng finished speaking, Gu Yunyi didn't say anything, but asked, "What are you thinking about? Do you think Zhou Yuanjia and Xinting are a good match?"

"Zhou Yuanjia is a fine person, he's just a bit too playful?"

"What the heck?" Xu Qingmeng immediately sat up.

"Be careful, why are you in such a hurry? It's not what you think."

"He's still a child at heart, and I'm afraid he can't shoulder this responsibility yet, but I don't think it's necessarily true. After all, with his playful nature, he definitely wouldn't have passed the exam this time. But he did so well. Although we are partly to blame, the main reason is that he has settled down and his knowledge is quite good. If Xinting can handle him, then there's no doubt about it."

"It seems that Zhou Yuanjia has become more diligent since we invited the Zhou family to dinner that day."
