Half an hour later, Helian Jing escorted Ye Jiayao and Lady Xia You out of the mansion.

When it was time to part, Ye Jiayao bowed and said to Lady Xia You, “Thank you for speaking for me before, Lady Xia You.”

Lady Xia You just turned to Helian Jing and said, “Little Jing, if you have time, you should come to our mansion, Chunfeng came back yesterday.”

Ye Jiayao awkwardly straightened her posture, her lips pulling up in the slightest.  Fine, I’ll just get ignored. Stupid me, thinking that Chunyu’s mum really liked me.

“Really? Wasn’t he going to come back at the end of the year together with his father?” Helian Jing asked, surprised.

“He is not accustomed to that side where there is yellow sand everywhere. It is only your uncle who can stay in those types of places,” Lady Xia You said in a mocking tone, a hint of bitterness in her smile.

“Well, that’s good! I’ll go and find him tomorrow,” Helian Jing replied happily as he escorted Lady Xia You to her carriage.

“Well, I’ll also be leaving now,” Ye Jiayao said, “I’ll come and find you if there are any problems.”

Helian Jing said, “I’ll go to Heavenly Residence for dinner tomorrow. Leave some dishes and cold drinks for me, okay? I’ll invite Xia Chunfeng, Brother Chunyu’s younger brother. He’s one year older than me and we played together all the time when we were younger.”

Ye Jiayao nodded. “Xia Chunfeng? Will he look similar to his older brother?”

Helian Jing ignored her question and said instead, “I’m also going to invite someone else.”

“That’s not a problem. You can invite whoever and as many people as you wish. I’ll reserve the Lotus Attic for you.”

Ye Jiayao waved goodbye and left.

Helian Jing silently watched Big Yaoyao walk away. The person I wanted to invite is you…

Song Qi was waiting for Ye Jiayao at the street corner. “Did you get the deal, Brother Yao?”

Ye Jiayao smiled secretively and responded, “It was all thanks to your Lady.”

She was beginning to understand why Lady Xia You helped her. It was not because she favored her, but most likely because Lady Xia You and Elder Princess Yi De were at odds. Chunyu’s mother sided with Ye Jiayao simply because she wanted to spite Elder Princess Yi De.

“I was kind of worried when I saw my Lady walk out of the Helian Mansion,” Song Qi admitted.

“What were you worried about? That I would be eaten by your Lady?” Ye Jiayao joked.

“It just seems a bit unexpected that you two would meet like this.”

Ye Jiayao lowered her eyes. Yes, it was indeed unexpected.

“Let’s go and have a look around at the bronze shops,” Ye Jiayao said, changing the topic.

“Bronze shops? Are you buying bronze ware, Brother Yao? What for? Bronze cauldron? Bronze pot?” Song Qi was puzzled. Don’t most people use iron made cooking utensils?


“Ice holder,” Ye Jiayao simply said.

However, the ice holder she wanted was not the big and heavy ones which required a lot of complex work. She wanted a simple ice holder to sell the Ice Cream Mooncake in so that it could be stored for at least three to five days. Preservation was the key because if the ice cream melted, the Ice Cream Mooncake would not be worth much.
