Chapter 88: Fresh Peaches (2) (2/2)

A storm was brewing in Xiao Bojian’s almond-shaped eyes as his heart clenched tightly. He hated himself a little for not having any power. He couldn’t even help Chu Lian when she was in need of help, and he could only let her face those troubles on her own.

Since He Sanlang wasn’t worthy of her, then don’t blame him for stealing her back!

All these people who were making trouble for Lian’er today… he would pay them back in the future!

……

Meanwhile, Chu Lian was busy teaching her two maidservants how to knead the dough in the kitchen. If she were able to hear Xiao Bojian’s current thoughts, she would surely roll her eyes at him.

She would even offer him a reply: “Shoo, go stand somewhere else. Don’t interfere with my moneymaking.”

Does your mum know how warped your thinking is?

Unfortunately, Chu Lian didn’t know of what was going on in Xiao Bojian’s mind. She was busy as a bee in the kitchen.

The four senior servants who had followed her here were Madam Huang and Lady Yang’s people. None of them could help in making the buns.

Since De’an Restaurant’s Mr Wang had made the longevity peach buns in this exact kitchen a while ago, she didn’t lack any of the necessary ingredients.

With Xiyan and Wenqing helping her, Chu Lian could speed up her cooking.

At first, the four senior servants had kept a close eye on the proceedings from the side. Madam Huang’s senior servants had even seemed to have grown eyes on the top of their head from all their staring. However, as time passed, the senior servants’ eyes all widened; Madam Huang’s servants were so anxious that cold sweat started appearing on their bodies.

However, they couldn’t leave at all due to Lady Yang’s servants watching them.
