Chapter 738: Preparing in Advance

Whether it was when Ye Muyu had a conflict with the Yu family, Madam Xie’s help, or the practical gifts that Xie Yu had given her, they supported her, so she had to go.

“Alright, let’s go then,” Madam Liu said with a faint smile.

“I’m planning to give them some wild mountain products and home-brewed wine as gifts. I even asked your father to buy a ginseng.” This time, Madam Liu had racked her brains. She could not give them silver directly, but she also could not give them ordinary food. The Xie family had all of these, and they were not worth much. It was not appropriate to give them something like that on such a big day.

After thinking about it, she felt that it was more appropriate to give them ginseng and wine.

It cost the family more than twenty taels of silver.

Madam Liu still felt a little pained, but she was still worried. She asked, “Ah Yu, do you think it’s fine? Is it too little?”

“Mother, did you spend a lot of money? If you want to buy ginseng in the future, ask Ah Heng. His caravan will definitely be able to buy it cheaper.”

“I didn’t spend much.” Madam Liu waved her hand. Although she was reluctant to spend a lot of money, she would not be stingy. Moreover, during this period of time, the Xie family’s Fragrance Restaurant had ordered a lot of pickled cabbages. They had agreed in advance that they would use them.

Previously, Madam Chu did not understand why they had bought so many. Now, she understood. It seemed that the Xie family had prepared the pickled cabbages in advance because they were certain that the Third Young Master would be able to pass the examination. They were waiting for the banquet to be held to cook.

Actually, there was one thing that Madam Liu guessed wrong. The Xie family was not certain that Xie Yu would be able to pass the exam. It was just that a wealthy family like theirs did not lack money. No matter what the outcome was, they would prepare in advance.

If it was successful, it could naturally be used at the banquet.

Even if it did not work, it could still be used in the restaurant. No matter what, it would not be wasted.

If Xie Yu passed, the banquet would not have to be prepared in a hurry. If the dishes were not good, it would be a disgrace to the entire family.

“Mother, it’s enough.”

“What did you prepare?” Madam Liu asked.

Ye Muyu took out the list. “I prepared this. This is a gift from the Xie family.”

“Oh my god, the Xie family even gave us a house?” Madam Liu saw the deed at a glance. “How big is this house?”

“Second rank. Mother, you should understand that I’m the one who doesn’t know how to respond,” Ye Muyu said helplessly.

“So, I returned a portion of the gifts from the Xie family, but it would definitely be difficult to return the house. I thought that I would exchange this portion with a pastry recipe.”

The recipe was not much, but it had a price. If the recipe was given to the Xie family, the Xie family would be able to earn back the money in a few months. They could even use the recipe to deal with more wealthy families.

In any case, it was a pretty good return gift.

“Is this recipe expensive?”

Her thoughts were still stuck on how she could earn money from the delicious pastries, but she did not know how much money she could earn or how much the gift should be.

Ye Muyu explained the use of the recipe to her in detail.

Hearing this, Madam Liu nodded. “In that case, our family’s gift is not bad. I’m not worried that the Xie family will think that we’re greedy.”

“Mother, don’t worry. No matter how you look at it, the Xie Clan understands our character.”

“Alright, then the gifts are settled.” Madam Liu was finally relieved. She had been worried that the gifts she had prepared were not good enough.

“By the way, Ah Heng came to me yesterday and said that he plans to renovate your house after he’s free?”

“Yes, I’ll have to trouble Father and Mother then.”

“It’s fine.” Madam Liu waved her hand. “This is nothing. I was thinking that the house should be renovated. Anyway, you don’t lack money now. It’s better to renovate the house than to spend it on other places.”
