The next morning, Ye Qingxue showed the agreed-upon schedule to Zhang You and Da Xu and Er Xu.

They carefully placed the list and assured Ye Qingxue that they would do their best.

"It will be busy at the beginning, and you may not have time to solicit customers."

Ye Qingxue felt somewhat apologetic, especially towards Da Xu and Er Xu, who had essentially been working for free.

Da Xu and Er Xu didn't think anything of it. Er Xu waved his hand at Ye Qingxue and said, "Oh, it's nothing. We can always make money. It's already very kind of you to buy us an oxcart."

Ye Qingxue still didn't think it would work. "How about this? When your schedule is full, I'll cover all your meals. You can eat as much as you want at my noodle shop!"

Da Xu, Er Xu, and Zhang You's eyes lit up.

Er Xu smiled and put his arm around Ye Qingxue's shoulder: "That's great! I've heard that you opened a new noodle shop, Brother Ye, but we haven't been there yet."

Ye Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief, afraid they would be too polite with her: "Okay, it's settled then. Remember to be on time tomorrow."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the group said their goodbyes.

Ye Qingxue returned to the noodle shop, and even without any discounts, there were still an unusually large number of customers today.

The dessert and snack station is also operating smoothly.

To Ye Qingxue's surprise, the bamboo tube bowls she made casually sold exceptionally well.

The villagers all said that the bowl was uniquely shaped and that the food tasted fragrant, so they were unwilling to return it and took it home to use.

This resulted in a shortage of bamboo bowls, forcing Ye Qingxue to make more on short notice.

This gave her a new idea: to carve her "Xiangmaiguan" signboard name on the bamboo tube bowls, and add some cute patterns, which could also serve as free advertising.

Another busy day passed. After closing the shop, Ye Qingxue recorded the day's income and expenses in the ledger behind the counter, while Chen Shi and Aunt Lu were still in the kitchen testing new products.

She propped her head up with one hand, thinking about how she should tell that girl about the lake trip the next day.

Ye Qingxue didn't want to hurt anyone.

Or should I just tell her I'm a woman?

However, the matter of Tiger Stronghold has not been completely resolved yet. If she were to rashly reveal that she is a woman, and if her people found out, they would surely get into trouble because of her previous incident of fighting Wolf Fu.

Thinking about this, Ye Qingxue's head started to ache.

hiss.

My stomach started hurting too.

Ye Qingxue rubbed her stomach with her hand, and the next moment, her eyes widened suddenly!

Oh no, what a coincidence, I got my period!

She hurriedly went to the outhouse and put a sanitary napkin she had bought at the supermarket on it.

My stomach hurt even more when I came out!

She quickly took out a bowl of spiritual spring water from her spatial storage and drank it. She felt much better immediately, but she was still very weak.

Alas, if that's the case, I'm sure I'll catch a cold while boating on the lake tomorrow.

……

The next day, Ye Qingxue and Wen Yanyu came to the lakeside together.

Looking around, they saw a little girl jumping and waving at them in the distance.

As Ye Qingxue approached, she realized it was the same charming young lady from that day.

Today she wore a light yellow short jacket and a matching embroidered skirt, looking very bright and beautiful.

Standing next to her was another woman, presumably the older sister she was referring to.

Upon seeing the woman clearly, Ye Qingxue raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Huh?

"Miss Qian?"

Ye Qingxue exclaimed in surprise.

Miss Qian seemed unsurprised by her arrival and bowed to her, saying, "Young Master Ye."

"You know my surname is Ye?"

Ye Qingxue remembered that she didn't tell anyone her name that day.

Miss Qian smiled and said, "Young Master Ye made quite a splash at his birthday banquet that day, so I was curious and had someone look into it."

"Yes, yes, it was Second Sister who sent me to find you!" The girl next to Miss Qian said excitedly to Ye Qingxue.

Miss Qian introduced herself to Ye Qingxue: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Qian Ruoling, the third young lady of the Qian family on the west bank. This is my third younger sister, Qian Ruofeng. She has a lively personality. Please forgive her if she offends anyone."

It turns out that this charming young lady is actually the third young lady of the Qian family.

"Young Master Ye, I didn't expect you to actually come." Qian Ruofeng looked at Ye Qingxue with bright eyes.

Ever since Ye Qingxue learned of her feelings, she could no longer look directly at her smile.

"Hehe, Miss Qian invited me, wouldn't it be too disrespectful of me not to come?"

After saying that, Ye Qingxue suddenly remembered Wen Yanyu and wanted to introduce him to Miss Qian.

However, before she could speak, Miss Qian spoke first.

"Young Master Wen, you've arrived."

Whether it was Ye Qingxue's imagination or not, Qian Ruoling's tone suddenly became somewhat soft.

Huh? They know each other?

Ye Qingxue looked up at them and saw that Qian Ruoling's gaze towards Wen Yanyu was also...

Not right.

"Was it Miss Qian who invited Brother Wen?" Ye Qingxue couldn't help but ask.

Qian Ruoling pursed her lips and hummed in agreement.

! !

Oh!

So that's what it was!

"How did you all end up coming together?" Qian Ruoling asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ye Qingxue and Wen Yanyu exchanged a glance, and then Ye Qingxue saw him give her a wink.

understood!

It turns out that Miss Qian is the one who loves Wen Yanyu!

Ye Qingxue fully understood the meaning in Wen Yanyu's eyes and wanted to betray him.

"No, we just happened to meet on the way. We know each other, so we came together."

Qian Ruofeng, completely unaware of anything amiss, cheerfully said, "Second Sister is just wondering how to explain this to Young Master Wen. Since you all know each other, let's play together!"

As he spoke, he took Qian Ruoling's hand and walked towards the lake, whispering something to each other.

While the two young ladies of the Qian family walked ahead, Ye Qingxue whispered to Wen Yanyu, "Brother Wen, the second young lady of the Qian family is a very nice person, why don't you like her?"

Wen Yanyu raised an eyebrow and glanced at her: "What? You're not willing to help me anymore?"

Ye Qingxue, her secret exposed, laughed awkwardly, "No, how could that be..."

I just think you have a bad eye.

Ye Qingxue secretly grumbled to herself.

"Then why did you say we met by chance?" Wen Yanyu immediately saw through Ye Qingxue's pretense.

"I was just a little slow to react, wasn't I? Besides, I think Miss Qian is really nice. Why don't you consider it?"

"But I really have no idea, and I can't hold them back." Wen Yanyu shook his head helplessly and sighed, then asked, "What should we do later?"

Ye Qingxue turned to look at him and could only say, "Let's just see how it goes."

Anyway, she was determined to make things clear with Qian Ruofeng today, but Wen Yanyu...

Never mind, it's his own business, it's not good to meddle too much.

Let's mind our own business first...

Upon reaching the lake shore, Ye Qingxue noticed that the two young ladies of the Qian family had boarded two separate boats.

Qian Ruofeng was waving excitedly at Ye Qingxue: "Young Master Ye! Come over here!"

Qian Ruoling was on another boat, looking at Wen Yanyu.

Although Ye Qingxue was somewhat surprised, she still boarded Qian Ruofeng's ship.

She boarded the boat and sat down. The boat gradually sailed into the lake. A gust of cold wind blew by, and Ye Qingxue shivered instantly.

Hiss, it's so cold.

She wore a cotton-padded coat today, but it still couldn't quite keep out the cold wind.

My stomach started hurting again...

Mingming had just drunk two large bowls of spiritual spring water this morning.

Ye Qingxue gently placed her hand on her stomach, trying her best to control her expression and make herself look less pained.

Qian Ruofeng was excitedly introducing the scenery to her as he put on his clothes.

“Young Master Ye, look at those mountains over there. They’re in our Qingshui County. The scenery is beautiful, and there are lots of wildflowers and wild fruits. I haven’t climbed a mountain in ages since I came to Menghu Village. Luckily, you helped me…”

Ye Qingxue could sense that Qian Ruofeng was very excited, but she still couldn't help but frown.

She underestimated the level of pain during her period.

Perhaps it was the original constitution of the previous body.

Now that she's caught a chill, she really can't hold on any longer...

"Young Master Ye? What's wrong?"

Ye Qingxue looked really bad. Even though she tried her best to control her expression, Qian Ruofeng still noticed something was wrong.

She was in so much pain that she almost fainted.

His body swayed precariously.

Seeing your increasingly pale face, Qian Ruofeng panicked: "Young Master Ye, are you alright? Sister! Young Master Ye, he..."

Ye Qingxue suddenly grabbed her hand: "Don't shout, Miss Qian San."

Wen Yanyu is still on that ship; if we call him here, things will get really serious.

She wasn't ready to let Wen Yanyu know that she was a woman.

"Please take me to the shore. I need to use the restroom. I'll give you an explanation once I feel better."
