My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Ji Yunshuang asked Zhu Dong'e to buy flour and other things, while she took the opportunity to take out the raw materials such as butter and milk from her space.

When she was stockpiling supplies, her space already contained a lot of raw materials for making Western-style pastries, such as milk and butter.

With the addition of the cows in the space, the milk they produce each day is piling up, so Ji Yunshuang doesn't have to worry about running out of butter and milk in the future.

However, she will definitely set up several more farms outside the space in the future. And she feels that the more things in the space, the better.

The only things she sells now, besides the fried peas which have relatively lower nutritional value, are these lower-quality butter and milk.

In the apocalypse, when there are no other options, these things would certainly be treasures.

Now she has transmigrated into a world that is not very peaceful and is backward.

But the air and water here are unpolluted, and she has space to obtain higher quality butter and milk.

With a choice, she was less inclined to eat the less desirable options.

Of course, things you don't want to eat yourself are sold to gain more resources.

After Zhu Dong'e brought back the flour and other things, Ji Yunshuang began to teach her how to use the oven.

She planned to make cookies, egg cookies, and walnut shortbread.

Although modern research has proven that hydrogenation of margarine produces trans fatty acids, which are extremely harmful to the cardiovascular system.

But in this era of scarcity, pastries made with margarine are an irresistible temptation for people of this time.

On this day, at the entrance to the east gate of the inner city, every pedestrian coming and going looked around, trying to see where the fragrance was coming from.

"What are you making? It smells so good!"

"That's right, I've never smelled such a wonderful fragrance in my entire life."

"Was it made by that shop over there? The aroma is coming from over there."

"It must be! I saw workers at the shop over there a few days ago, and they said that the grumpy old woman finally sold the shop!"

……

A group of people chatted amongst themselves as they approached Ji Yunshuang's shop. As they got closer, the aroma of the fragrant butter cookies baking intensified.

The crowd, captivated by the fragrance in the air, couldn't resist knocking on the door to inquire further.

In the kitchen, Ji Yunshuang was frowning as she looked at the cookies on the cutting board.

To be honest, she wasn't very satisfied with these cookies.

This kind of earthen oven is not very good at controlling the temperature, and the cookies baked in it did not achieve the desired fluffiness and appearance.

As she was deep in thought, she heard a loud knocking on the door.

"Master, someone is knocking on the door." Zhu Dong'e tried hard to control herself, but saliva still rushed out of her throat.

It smelled so good; she had never smelled such a wonderful fragrance in her entire life.

"Go and take a look," Ji Yunshuang said, then changed her mind and added, "Take these cookies with you..."

If they are just passersby and ask you what kind of business your shop does, just take out these cookies and say that you are planning to open a new pastry shop, and these are some new pastries made by your chefs. You would like them to try them and give you their feedback.

Zhu Dong'e felt that she didn't need to ask anyone else; she had never smelled such a fragrant and delicious pastry before.

But since Lady Ji is so clever, she must have had her reasons for giving those instructions.

She took the cookies to open the door and saw that, just as Ji Yunshuang had instructed, people were asking what kind of business their shop did and whether the aroma she had just smelled was coming from their shop. She quickly repeated the lines that Ji Yunshuang had taught her.

Everyone was overjoyed, not expecting such a good thing to happen.

The cookies that everyone was not very satisfied with for Ji Yunshuang also received very high praise.

Everyone says it's incredibly delicious, even better than Bai Xiang Lou, the number one dim sum shop in the inner city.

Those who tried the cookies told everyone that a new pastry shop had opened near the east gate of the inner city, and that the pastries made there tasted even better than those from Baixianglou.

The owner was incredibly humble and ambitious. Even after making such delicious pastries, he was worried they weren't good enough. Before opening, he invited everyone to taste the pastries and give him their feedback...

Ji Yunshuang never expected that her unintentional act would make her shop famous in Hongdu even before it opened for business.

This was certainly a great thing for her.

However, it's definitely not enough for Zhu Dong'e to work alone in the shop. In addition to increasing the number of staff in the kitchen, the shop also needs to hire more waiters, managers, and other staff.

In this era, opening a shop requires manpower. Most people would first think of using people from their own household, or they would go to a brokerage firm to buy servants and hold their indentures in their hands.

After all, there is no such thing as intellectual property rights in this era. In order to protect the formulas in your hands from being stolen by competitors, you can only try to choose trustworthy people.

Ji Yunshuang thought about it for a moment and decided that she could make use of her family members first.

In any case, they're all in the same boat now. And from her observations over the past few days, Lu Yinheng's younger brothers seem to be of decent character. It's less risky than her going out and finding strangers.

Of course, this is not a long-term solution. The matter of buying players needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Now that the construction of the house is almost finished, Ji Yunshuang found a time when her family was all together and told them that she needed manpower to open a shop in the city.

"What? You opened a shop in the city?" Gu Chunzhi stared wide-eyed, her mouth half-open, still in a state of shock.

Apart from Lu Yinheng and his son, almost everyone else in the Lu family was just as bewildered as Gu Chunzhi.

Ji Yunshuang said, "Yes, I found a shop in the city a few days ago and thought the price was right, so I rented it. Everyone has been busy these days, so I didn't tell anyone."

"Where did you get so much money?" Gu Chunzhi asked incredulously. "Renting a shop in the city isn't cheap, is it?"

Ji Yunshuang said, "Mother probably knows that I've been working with Wang Er's wife on a stir-fried pea business these days. Our stir-fried peas are selling quite well, and with the money the Zhao family gave me for helping out, it's enough."

Wang Er's wife comes to Ji Yunshuang's house every morning, pulling a large oxcart with her. Her business is doing quite well, and Gu Chunzhi is well aware of this.

However, she never expected that her daughter-in-law would be able to rent a shop in the city and start a business so quickly.

My daughter-in-law is so capable.

While a surge of joy welled up in Gu Chunzhi's heart, she also glanced at her son with deep concern.

My daughter-in-law is beautiful and capable...

Will she dislike her son?

Her mind was in turmoil, but she said aloud, "The house is almost finished now, and it's not a good time to work in the fields. We can all go to the shop to help out. Just tell us what you need us to do and we'll arrange it."

Lu Wuzheng and his brothers also chimed in, saying they would let Ji Yunshuang make the arrangements.
