Who understands? He traveled through time with a high-spec spatial ability.

After signing the contract with Qi Ye'an, he handed over the remaining "brilliant plan" to him. He then took the chefs to the kitchen for training, teaching them step by step. "You can learn a few simple dishes first, and I will teach you two new dishes every month from now on."

Call Qi Ye'an over. "You should have some friends here. Invite them over for a meal in a couple of days and spread the word. Also, find a few beggars, give them some food or money, and have them spread the word all over the streets. Tell them that Yi Li Xiang is giving back to its loyal customers by offering half-price dishes and a free bowl of iced drink to anyone who becomes a member on the 8th of each month."

"The day after tomorrow is the eighth day of the lunar month, so you have enough time to prepare. I'll deliver vegetables, chicken, duck, goose eggs, and grass carp; there's plenty. The cost of the vegetables will be charged separately, and you can settle the bill with me at the end of the month."

"Thank you, young lady. But given the current situation... we're afraid we can't afford ice." In the summer, only the wealthy and powerful have ice; ordinary people have to spend money to buy it. But the price is shockingly high; a block of ice the size of a chopping board costs one tael of silver. The Qi family does have a cellar, but what they have stored is far from enough for the shop's needs.

Qiao Jingjing had an ice maker and wasn't worried at all. "Is there a cellar in the backyard of the restaurant?" "Yes, and it's quite large."

"Alright, give me the ice. I'll deliver it to you in two days. Put it on the tab and settle the bill later. Don't worry, my ice isn't expensive. It's just that I don't have a carriage, so you'll have to figure out how to transport it for me."

Qi Ye'an's family had two carriages, so it wouldn't be a problem to spare one for the time being. After discussing a few minor issues, seeing that it was almost time, they decided to go to the warehouse to resolve the matter and then return home.

But here's the problem: she doesn't know how to drive a carriage, and she only knows a little about riding a horse. The only solution is for Li Wang to drive her to the warehouse, and wait for her nearby until she's finished.

Upon arriving at the warehouse, she fired a signal flare. A moment later, the shopkeeper arrived with two assistants. Qiao Jingjing kept a distance of 2 meters from them, with a small straight knife tucked into her trouser leg—better safe than sorry.

After confirming that the rice and flour were all of good quality, the shopkeeper readily paid. "Young lady, you might consider a long-term partnership with our shop. We can receive goods about once a month without any problem. My surname is Li, you can call me Shopkeeper Li, or Uncle Li, hehehe."

"Thank you, Uncle Li. It will be a pleasure to cooperate with you then."

Clutching the 146 taels of silver from selling the grain, he happily left the warehouse. He put the silver into his spatial storage, then took out a few steamed buns from there, walked to the carriage, took two buns, and handed them to Li Wang.

Biting into the juicy char siu bun, Li Wang felt he had never eaten such delicious buns in his life. "Miss Qiao, where did you buy these buns? They're wonderful. I want to buy a couple for my mother to try."

"Uh, I don't remember, I just bought it from a random shop." Looks like I can't share things so easily anymore, it'll give me away. Of course these buns are delicious! Before she transmigrated, she was a regular at this bun shop.

"After studying the taste and preparation method, the restaurant might have another main dish or snack to add to its menu."

The horse-drawn carriage was much faster than the oxcart, and it took about half an hour to reach the three-way intersection. Five more minutes to go and they would reach the village. To avoid gossip, Qiao Jingjing decided to get off there.

She told Li Wang to meet her there at Chenshi (7-3 AM) the day after tomorrow, then carried the basket and headed towards the village. After Li Wang turned around, she took off the basket, put her hands inside the empty basket, and took out three honey-roasted chicken legs, seven meat buns, a rack of ribs, a sewing kit, a roll of cotton cloth (the whole roll was too big, so she rolled up a section and cut it off to keep it out of sight), two pairs of adult black cloth shoes, and one pair of children's cloth shoes. These were originally intended for her future children, but she would give them to her younger brother first.

Although she disliked Qiao Wanjun, they hadn't completely broken off relations yet, and it wasn't appropriate to openly exclude him. The upcoming plans to buy land and reclaim wasteland would require his help, and as a young woman in ancient times, there were many limitations to what she could do. When in Rome, do as the Romans do; once you're here, you have to abide by the rules. You can't change centuries-old, deeply ingrained ideas on your own. So, she decided to avoid such futile efforts.

Even if Qiao Wanjun is a scoundrel, he is still Qiao Daya's biological father. Consider it repaying a favor to her. As long as Qiao Wanjun doesn't lose sight of priorities and blindly favor others in the future, she can get along with him peacefully. After all, she is not Qiao Daya herself, and as Qiao Jingjing, she cannot truly understand her father's past.

As she walked through the village, some people greeted her, and she smiled politely. Passing by Aunt Li's house, she took a few meat buns from her spatial storage, wrapped them in oil paper, and called out, "Is Aunt Li home?"

Li Xianglan was picking vegetables in the yard to prepare a meal when she heard someone calling her, so she came out to open the door. "Da Ya, what brings you here? Does your mother need to see your aunt?"

"Auntie, my mother asked me to bring this over so my younger siblings and Grandma Shen can have a taste." He then shoved the paper package into Li Xianglan's arms, which she instinctively caught with her hands.

"I'm leaving now, goodbye Auntie." She turned and ran off in a flash.

"This child, how come he ran off so fast?" Upon opening the package, oh dear, it was a big meat bun—a precious item! I wanted to return it, but the child was nowhere to be seen. Afraid of causing trouble if someone saw him on the way back, I had no choice but to take it home.

When Qiao Jingjing got home, she called out, "Mom, I'm home." No one answered.

"Sister, Mother has gone to check on the rice in the fields."

Qiao Jingjing waved her hand, "Come here, I bought you some delicious food. This time it's a gift, so don't rush, eat slowly. Mom and Dad have some too. Eat without worry." She handed him a chicken leg, noticing his dirty little hands, "Qiao Shiming, how many times have I told you to wash your hands before eating? Go now!"

Ah! My older sister called me by my full name, which means she's very angry. I quickly ran to wash my hands with scented soap.

This soap is the kind of laundry soap that Qiao Jingjing took out from her space. It's earthy yellow, has no fragrance, and is shaped like a regular brick. She cut off a small piece to use.

Lin Cuicui and Qiao Wanjun had just returned from washing their hands, and they washed their hands with this water as well.

Qiao Jingjing gave each of them a bowl filled with well water, and also gave each of them a chicken leg and two steamed buns, except for Qiao Zhanjun who received three.

"Mom, don't cook today, just eat this. I have something to discuss with you after we finish eating. I've already eaten, you can eat now."

Knowing her daughter's current abilities, Lin Cuicui didn't try to stop them or refuse, and urged the father and son to eat quickly.

When the three of them took their first bite of the chicken leg, they were instantly moved to tears; they really did shed tears because it was so delicious.

Qiao Jingjing was quite pleased with herself; of course it was delicious. These were honey-glazed chicken drumsticks from Jin Xiaomen's shop, packed and stored in her spatial dimension right after they came out of the oven. Although they had cooled down a bit after being taken out for a short while, the texture was still perfect.
