I have been farming since I crossed over.

Lu Jintang from the front hall saw Yang Mingxi coming back and hurriedly said, "They haven't ordered yet. I'll go see what they want."

"I ordered roast duck, cold rabbit, mouth-watering chicken, boiled fish, roast pork belly, three vegetarian dishes, a soup, and an iced bitter melon."

"You're amazing! How did you know there would be plenty of food?"

"I've seen these dishes. Besides, they're signature dishes, so they must be prepared in large quantities. There are only a few small ones in the small hall at the back, so keep them in mind when arranging the staff."

"And the small hall, how do you arrange for those students?"

"Of course we'll arrange it in a hall. Oh, and leave a small hall for Tang Jiahang. Tell him to come over for dinner! The free kind."

"No need, he has already arranged for someone to come and make the reservation. What about the five people? Have you arranged it?"

"That's right, just make the reservation. Another student from another academy is coming and will be accommodated in the last hall."

"How did you know?"

"you guess?"

Lu Jintang laughed and said, "No need to guess, you must have your own way?"

Yang Mingxi also laughed and leaned closer to Lu Jintang, saying, "I overheard it. They also wanted to occupy the small hall more and prevent students from other academies from eating together. How mean is that? But I figured it out."

Lu Jintang was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Axi is amazing! Our restaurant has hosted so many students today, I'm afraid it will affect today's income, right?"

"Why? Why would you say that?"

"Don't people say they are poor students? How can they be willing to spend money?"

"Lu Jintang, why are you reluctant to spend money on the dishes ordered by Bailu College just now? Don't you know that students are actually the largest consumer group?" Yang Mingxi said angrily.

Lu Jintang smiled and said, "Don't be angry, I just think that students are the poorest. Don't people always talk about poor students?"

"You're wrong. Look at our restaurant. We opened today. Did a single farmer come in to spend money? But what about students? Aren't there a lot of them? Don't worry, students' spending will account for more than 30% of our total profit in the future."

After listening to this, Lu Jintang said, "Then the snack street behind us should be built near the college, right?"

"Of course, but it's just a college with a limited number of students. If it's built in a place where colleges are concentrated, the business will definitely be good."

While the two were talking, students from Nanfeng College also came over. According to the previous arrangements, they were simply arranged in the small hall in the backyard.

Lord Tang arrived late. Seeing Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang chatting and laughing, he said sourly, "I'm soliciting customers for you over there, and you two are here flirting. You're really careless!"

"Thank you so much! You've got us so busy that we've spent three days' worth of materials in one day, and we don't even know where we're going to get tomorrow's supplies. Are we going to close right after opening?"

Tang Jiahang was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Haha, so I'm saying I've made things worse? You're really just trying to be nice, not knowing how to appreciate a good person! These days, it's so hard to be a good person, isn't it?"

Lu Jintang glanced at Tang Jiahang and said, "Hurry up and eat! There won't be any bones left soon."

Time flew by in this busy state, and before they knew it, the moon had already set in the west. Everyone was busy all the time, and when they finally had a break to prepare for dinner, they were shocked to find that the kitchen was completely empty, with not even a single ingredient left.

In desperation, they found some noodles and casually threw them into the pot to cook. However, Yang Mingxi had no appetite at all. She looked pale and waved her hands listlessly, as if she didn't even have the energy to say another word. Then she collapsed onto the bed, eyes closed, as if wanting to fall into a deep sleep.

Yang Mingxi had been working at full capacity today, from dawn to dusk, a full day of activity. First, she rushed to the snack street, closely monitoring every move, fearing any mishaps. Then, she hurried to the teahouse to check on the business and carefully solicited customer feedback. Then, she rushed to the cloth shop, without a word, rolling up her sleeves to help with clothing alterations and greet customers. In the evening, she bustled around at the restaurant again. All day, Yang Mingxi was like a spinning top, constantly rushing from place to place.

Surprisingly, despite her busy schedule, she only managed to grab a quick lunch of noodles. Night fell quietly, and the lights of the county town gradually lit up, dotting the streets and alleys like fireflies. As the last shop slowly rolled down its shutters, signaling the end of the day, Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang were breathless and exhausted. They slumped in their chairs like deflated balls, even the slightest movement of a finger seemed incredibly difficult.

Yang Mingxi gasped for air, beads of sweat streaming down her forehead and soaking her collar. She smiled wryly at the equally exhausted Lu Jintang beside her, saying, "Oh my god, I really don't want to go home tonight! Just thinking about having to force myself to get up early tomorrow morning and continue working is simply torture! Life is so hard!" Even as she finished her words, she exaggeratedly stretched her arms and stretched her body, as if trying to shake off all the fatigue in her body.

After hearing this, Lu Jintang couldn't help but smile and joked, "Oh, you really don't plan to go back? Have you completely forgotten what an important day tomorrow is?" After saying that, he blinked and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

Yang Mingxi thought about it, then smiled sheepishly and said, "Let's go! Let's go home."

Lu Jintang reached out and pulled Yang Mingxi up, saying, "I'll carry you back. It's the most comfortable and quickest way. How about it?"

Yang Mingxi, who was already embarrassed, felt even more embarrassed after hearing what Lu Jintang said. She lowered her head and shook it.

Lu Jintang didn't care whether Yang Mingxi agreed or not. He picked up Yang Mingxi and flew towards Changshan Village using his lightness skills.

In a moment, the two arrived at Changshan Village. Lu Jintang walked Yang Mingxi to her doorstep and said gently, "Ah Xi, have a good sleep. When you wake up tomorrow morning, you'll be my fiancée! Are you happy?" With that, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a doting smile, and pulled out an exquisite bracelet from his arms.

The bracelet was emerald green, crystal clear, and seemed to contain endless spiritual energy. Lu Jintang gently slipped it onto Yang Mingxi's slender wrist, his movements as gentle as if he were handling a rare treasure. After completing all this, he once again gazed affectionately at the woman before him and said softly, "See you tomorrow. May you have sweet dreams!" Before he finished speaking, he turned away gracefully and walked away with a light step.

Yang Mingxi stood still, her gaze fixed on the beautiful bracelet on her wrist, which shimmered enchantingly in the moonlight. A smile spread across her face, her eyes narrowing into crescents of joy, like the bright stars in the night sky. A gentle breeze rustled her hair and skirt, and in that moment, time seemed to have stood still for her.
