MTL - I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating-Chapter 252 I can't accept you as an apprentice

  Chapter 252 I can’t accept you as a disciple

  When Ji Zhao walked into the backyard carrying refreshments, Mrs. Shen was squatting on the ground peeling yams.

   "Sister-in-law?" Ji Zhao quickly went up to him and helped him up.

   "A Tao is here?" Mrs. Shen replied with a smile, "A Tao, I'm going to make yam pork rib soup at noon, can you stay for a bowl too?"

   "Okay!" Ji Zhao smiled generously, "Mother said that the soup cooked by sister-in-law is the best."

   "If others praised me, I would be very happy; but if you praise me, why do I feel so guilty?" Aunt Shen joked deliberately.

  Ji Zhao had no choice but to smile naively, "Sister-in-law, I made some new refreshments, would you like to try them? I found out that green tea juice is used to make cakes, which has a unique flavor. Why don't you try this white jade green tea cake?"

   "Okay, let me try it."

  After wiping her hands, Mrs. Shen picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite.

  There is a fragrance of tea in the sweet and fragrant pastries, and the two aromas complement each other, making the pastries richer in taste.

   "Delicious!" Mrs. Shen couldn't wait to praise, "A Tao, are you really amazing?"

"Actually, this is Shen Yao's inspiration for me," Ji Zhao said cheerfully, "Shen Yao loves tea, and he said that when drinking tea, those refreshments are too greasy, and the taste of the refreshments is too thick, which will overwhelm the fragrance of the tea. So I thought of combining the two into one, and the result is that this white jade green tea cake has a unique flavor."

   "A Tao, you are really amazing." Mrs. Shen praised from the bottom of her heart, looking at Ji Zhao with eyes full of admiration.

   "Sister-in-law, I've already written the recipe for this dim sum." Ji Zhao quickly took out the recipe from his cuff, and said with a bright smile, "You can let the chef in the store do it first."

   "A Tao, let's talk about business. Your eldest brother and I bought the recipe for this pastry." Mrs. Shen quickly expressed her attitude, "You make a price, and I'll get you the money."

"Sister-in-law, I really don't need it!" Looking at her serious expression, Ji Zhao couldn't help but feel dumbfounded, "Shen Ji is a pastry shop, if you want to retain old customers and attract new ones, you must constantly introduce new ones. Come on, the business will be booming! Besides, we are a family, it’s just a recipe for tea, sister-in-law, you really don’t need to be so clear!”

  When Shen Yao was injured and even gave up on himself, it was thanks to the generous help of the two sister-in-laws.

  The family style of the Shen family is very simple, and more importantly, the relationship between the family members is very harmonious.

  Because of this, Ji Zhao is willing to offer the recipe of pastries.

   After all, they are a family!

"Since you don't want the money, then I'll give it to you." Mrs. Shen thought for a while and immediately made a decision, "Let's stick to the sharing model. At the end of the year, I will give it to you." You are not allowed to refuse your dividend when the time comes!"

  The smile on Ji Zhao's face became even more helpless.

"By the way, A Tao, actually I called you here today because I want to hear your opinion on something." Aunt Shen suddenly frowned, her tone tinged with a hint of sadness, "Is this a matter?" , I always feel uneasy..."

  After a quarter of an hour, after hearing the ins and outs of the whole matter, Ji Zhao couldn't help but frowned, "So that shopkeeper Zhao lowered the price of the shop by another fifty taels?"

"Yes," Mrs. Shen always felt uneasy, "You also know that since Shen Ji's business has improved, your elder brother has been thinking about expanding the store's facade; this meeting just happened to have such an opportunity, and your elder brother was moved .”

"But I always feel uneasy in my heart. How can there be so many good things that fall from the sky?" Aunt Shen sighed helplessly, "It's a pity that your elder brother is getting along very well with that shopkeeper Zhao now, and he has decided That storekeeper Zhao is a good man."

"So A Tao, I want to ask your opinion. Besides, don't you have a good relationship with the shopkeeper You Er of the restaurant? The shopkeeper You Er is well-informed and well-known in the county, so I want you to find You Er The second shopkeeper, please help me, ask carefully, is this shopkeeper Zhao really trustworthy?"

   "I understand," Ji Zhao nodded obediently, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will find a way to investigate this matter."

"Um."

"Sister-in-law, you are still pregnant now, so you can stop thinking about it." Ji Zhao smiled slightly, looked into her eyes, and said seriously, "If you don't want the child in your belly to be born with a bitter face , you don't have to frown anymore."

   "Huh?" Mrs. Shen was taken aback for a moment, but finally couldn't help but smile.

"Sister-in-law doesn't believe it?" Ji Zhao raised his eyebrows, and his tone became more serious, "Actually, children can perceive the emotions of adults. And when sister-in-law is free, you might as well talk to the child in your belly, or read to him Listen, it's okay."

   "Read to him?" Aunt Shen's eyes widened in surprise, "Can he understand?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand," Ji Zhao explained with a smile, "In fact, prenatal education is very important. There are also some benefits of prenatal education recorded in "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions". It is beneficial and harmless for your child to talk more and chat with him, so why would you not do it?"

  Listening to Ji Zhao's words, Mrs. Shen nodded quickly.

   "That's right, A Tao, what you said makes a lot of sense."

  At this moment, the Qin Mansion.

  Master Song finished reading Ji Chen's handwriting, and admired a picture of a snow scene he drew. He couldn't help sighing, "I finally understand the meaning of the word 'Young people are awesome'!"

  Ji Chen blinked lightly, subconsciously looked sideways, and looked up at Shen Yao beside him.

  Shen Yao smiled gently at him, rubbed his head, and explained in a low voice, "Master is praising you!"

   Hearing this, Ji Chen grinned.

"Chen Chen was not very talkative since he was a child," Shen Yao explained with a chuckle when he met Master Song's suspicious gaze, "but he is very smart, and I also discovered that he is very talented in painting. "

  Master Song couldn't help but nodded.

   "The old man once met some special children in the capital. Some of them, although taciturn, are exceptionally talented in a certain skill."

   "It's the same with Ji Chen." Master Song thought for a while, stroked his graying beard, and said softly, "I am willing to accept him as an apprentice."

   "Although his paintings are very interesting, the composition of the fine brushwork is still a bit immature. I feel that if he can study quietly, he will definitely make a difference in the future." Master Song is quite satisfied with Ji Chen, a student.

   "As for Mr. Shen," Master Song said sincerely, "I cannot accept you as an apprentice."
