Rebirth of the Charming Girl in Space

 Chapter 288: 

Not agreeing

Glancing at the fruit trees in her backyard that had already borne fruit, she walked under the trees and carefully examined them. Arching an eyebrow, he said, "Jingxuan, have you ever seen fruits growing so well like this before?"

Wei Jingxuan shook his head, "No, these are much larger and look more beautiful."

Helian Rongjiu rubbed his chin, "After getting to know this girl, I always feel like my past dozen years were lived in vain."

Recently, he had received some fruits from her, but he knew they must have been picked from Wuming Mountain. After all, their family had just arrived, and even if they planted trees, it wouldn't be possible for them to mature so quickly.

Although he found them delicious and the Empress Dowager asked him to bring some back, he knew that their family was busy with business and didn't want this girl to work too hard. So, he declined all of it.

Unexpectedly, anything that passed through her hands, whether it was vegetables or fruits, not only tasted completely different from what he had before but also looked different from what he knew.

The imperial physician had said that eating more fruits was good for the body. He used to dislike them, but since he ate the cherries she sold, he gradually developed a liking for them.

Wei Jingxuan nodded in agreement, "Me too."

Seeing some fruits already heavy on the branches, as if they would ripen soon, Helian Rongjiu pondered for a moment. After inspecting each tree, he returned to his seat.

This time he paid with silver, so Murong Lingran was in a very good mood. She decorated the edges of each cake and added some fruit as embellishments.

Originally, she wanted to make flowers, but she only had white cream, and she was afraid they would mind, so she dismissed the idea.

After a while, Murong Lingran finally finished making all ten cakes and placed them in the food box they brought, placing it in front of Helian Rongjiu. "Ninth Young Master, if possible, could you introduce some customers to me?"

Although Dad was worried that Ninth Young Master would get tired of them, afraid that he would no longer be their support in the future, she was not worried at all.

In her previous life, there was a popular saying, "To capture a man's heart, you must capture his stomach." Although they didn't have that kind of relationship, the principle should be the same.

From today, Ninth Young Master specifically came to visit. Based on his keen interest in the things she made and his appreciation for her cooking skills, she believed that no matter what happened in the future, Ninth Young Master would protect her.

"Introduce customers?"

"Yes."

"Okay... sure."

He agreed verbally, but Helian Rongjiu didn't agree in his heart.

He had just seen how this girl made the cakes, and indeed, as she said, it was extremely complicated and laborious. Thinking that the things she had worked so hard to make would be eaten by other men made him very uncomfortable.

Moreover, she said that the ingredients were hard to find, and after they were eaten, she would have to find alternatives. The Empress Dowager was still very obsessed with these cakes, and how could he let someone else eat such delicious things and deprive the Empress Dowager of the opportunity to enjoy them in the future?

She wanted to make money, and he could just come and buy frequently in the future; he had plenty of money.

Seeing that Helian Rongjiu took the cakes but still showed no intention of leaving, Murong Lingran asked in confusion, "Ninth Young Master, is there anything else?"

Helian Rongjiu then told her what he had just seen.

"So, Ninth Young Master wants to take some of the fruits from my backyard while delivering the food?"

"Yeah, I saw that several trees seemed to be ripe soon. Don't worry, this Lord will still pay you for it."
