Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

The sky gradually darkened.

Yelü Zhuyue tossed and turned in her tent, unable to sleep.

The soft, fluffy mochi completely captivated her senses, along with the sweet, fragrant, and warm milk tea.

I really want another drink.

I'm so hungry!

She wasn't a glutton before, so what happened to her when she came back this time?

"Soy milk rice mochi, soy milk rice mochi, soy milk rice mochi..."

"This name sounds delicious."

"The soy milk rice mochi that Madam Shen makes is really delicious."

"Aaaaaah! No, the main reason I came back this time was to find a chance to take the sheep slave siblings away, but now all I can think about is soy milk rice mochi!!"

"But I have to admit, the soy milk rice mochi is really delicious. I wish Sister Mu could try it too..."

Yelü Zhuyue tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep at all.

I'm really craving it and it's agonizing; I can't wait for dawn to break.

"I'm so hungry..."

After a while, Yelü Zhuyue finally fell asleep, smacking her lips as if she had a sweet dream.

In her dream, she and Nangong Mu stood together on a boundless grassland. The sky was light brown, and the clouds were very close to her.

When you reach out and touch it, it's soft and fragrant; these clouds are made of mochi.

Pick up a cloud-shaped piece, open your mouth and take a bite; it's sweet, chewy, and stretchy.

"It smells so good, Sister Mu, please try some!"

"And milk tea, where's my milk tea?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a light brown river appeared before them, steaming, with two thick, long straws stuck in it.

Take a sip.

"Wow, it smells so good, so milky and soyy, it's delicious!"

"One more bite of mochi."

"Delicious, delicious..."

"Ouch!!"

Yelü Zhuyue felt a sharp pain in her finger and suddenly woke up.

Goodness, he's chewing on his own fingers like they're mochi.

I got up and looked around. It wasn't quite dawn yet, but it was clear that a night had passed.

Yelü Zhuyue became excited instantly.

With so many people at the entrance of Zhiwei Restaurant, she might as well join the queue now so she can quickly get her soy milk rice mochi.

The soy milk rice mochi smells delicious.

"Oh, and call Yangnu and An'an along too!"

Yelü Zhuyue couldn't wait to run to the camp of Yang Nu and his sister.

She cleared her throat and called out, "Sheep Slave, An'an!"

"Get up quickly, let's go line up to buy soy milk rice mochi!"

The sheep handler inside the tent rubbed his eyes, and when he opened them, good heavens, it was still pitch black inside.

"Auntie, we're coming right away!" he replied.

She lit the candle and quickly called to An'an, who was standing next to her.

An'an groggily opened her eyes: "Brother, doesn't Aunt hate queuing? Why are you here so early today, before dawn..."

"My aunt may have changed her personality."

Yang Nu couldn't understand it either. He had intended to go with An An to wake up his aunt, but he didn't expect his aunt to be up even earlier than them.

To be honest, it's really early, and I'm feeling a bit sleepy.

The brother and sister finished packing and left the camp.

When I looked up, it was barely dawn.

"Little aunt, isn't it too early...?" Yang Nu couldn't help but frown.

Yelü Zhuyue took one child in each hand: "It's getting late, now's the perfect time to go queue up!"

"Maybe we'll get to drink the first cup of soy milk rice mochi."

Yelü Zhuyue looked on with anticipation. She had thought about it all night and dreamed about it all night. Now she was finally going to drink soy milk rice mochi!

Yang Nu was taken aback: Soy milk rice mochi?

Oh no, I forgot to tell my aunt the rules of Zhiwei Restaurant.

My aunt is so looking forward to it...

"Auntie, there's no soy milk rice mochi today~" An'an said in her childish voice.

Sheep Slave: "..."

He hadn't figured out how to explain it to his aunt yet, and his sister just blurted it out like that?

How disappointed my aunt must be!

Yelü Zhuyue stopped in her tracks instantly.

"No??"

"Auntie, the food sold at Zhiwei Restaurant is different every day. Yesterday they sold soy milk rice mochi, but they won't be selling it today," Yang Nu explained cautiously.

He felt like his aunt was angry.

"No, we won't sell it again!"

Yelü Zhuyue repeated through gritted teeth.

No, she looked forward to it all night, even dreaming about soy milk rice mochi, and now they're telling her they're not selling it anymore??

Can't Madam Shen just do business properly? Why does she have to keep switching products?

Can't we sell soy milk rice mochi every day? It's such a delicious drink, if we sold it every day, we could definitely make a lot of money.

"Auntie, don't be sad. Sister Shen is selling hot and sour noodles today. They're sour and spicy, you'll definitely like them!" An'an continued from the side.

"Hot and sour noodles?? How did you know you were selling hot and sour noodles today??"

"Sister, little sister..." Yang Nu tried to stop An An from speaking.

"Sister Shen specifically told my brother and me this yesterday~"

"Auntie, lower yourself a little, I'll tell you a secret."

"Sister Shen said she will help us reunite with Mother~" An'an whispered in Yelü Zhuyue's ear.

Sheep-slave facepalm. Good heavens, her sister told him everything.

He didn't even need to think about it; his aunt was sure she would scold them.

My aunt might even think that Sister Shen has ulterior motives...

"Sheep slave!" Yelü Zhuyue's face darkened instantly. "You told others about your mother's affairs?"

Yang Nu could only explain, "Sister Shen is a good person. She has helped us a lot and drove away Yelü Meng. Moreover, she is from Da'an, just like Mother. She said she would help us."

"Auntie, please trust Sister Shen. Everyone knows that Sister Shen is beautiful and kind-hearted."

Yelü Zhuyue frowned, her eyes full of disapproval.

As the saying goes, you can't see into someone's heart. It's better to be safe than sorry; what if Madam Shen really has ulterior motives...?

Well, it's no use for her to scold the sheep slaves now.

"Don't tell anyone about this in the future."

"Let's go back to sleep first."

It's still early, and Madam Shen probably hasn't gone to the restaurant yet. No rush, she'll go and meet Madam Shen when it's fully light and see what her purpose is.

"Auntie, aren't we supposed to be queuing up at Zhiwei Restaurant...?" Yang Nu really couldn't understand his aunt's thought process.

Yelü Zhuyue snorted coldly: "Without soy milk rice mochi, what am I supposed to be queuing for?"

"But we have hot and sour noodles."

"Hmph, what's so good about hot and sour noodles? Can they be as delicious as soy milk rice mochi? I don't know what this Mrs. Shen is thinking, I really don't understand."

Yelü Zhuyue couldn't help but complain.

She hates queuing the most. She can reluctantly queue for the sake of soy milk rice mochi, but she would rather not queue for other food.

I didn't sleep well last night, so I might as well go back and catch up on my sleep, and then think carefully about how to deal with Sister Mu's matter.
