“But even without Buttface’s interlude, I plan to discuss it with you after you finish your exams.” After all, Big Brother was the smartest person in the entire family other than her.

Ning Ansheng didn’t know exactly when “this” happened. He just thought that this was the root cause of his sister’s exceptional disgust and vigilance towards the people in the old residence. It was also the reason for her personality to change drastically after she fell ill.

Thinking of how she, who did not even dare to speak loudly in the past, had become so independent for her family, he felt his heart ache even more.

A thousand words could not compare to his heart palpitating at this moment. He only said, “If anything happens in the future, Big Brother will take the responsibility.”

Xiaoxiao did not refuse. “Alright, alright. From now on, I’ll be my brothers’ httle sidekick. I won’t pretend to have anything in my head other than recipes.” Ning Ansheng was amused by her. Helpless and emotional, he was urged to sleep. “The exams are coming soon. Older Brother, you have to ensure that you have enough sleep.”

Ning Ansheng was very efficient in adjusting his mental state. He still had a light sleep on the 12th day, but he could already fall asleep normally on the 13th or 14th. At home, Ning Fengnian, his wife, and Ning Anhui specially suppressed the matter at the old residence in their hearts and did not mention it to anyone, afraid that it would affect Ning Ansheng’s exams.

This suppression lasted until May 15th, the day of the Bowen Academy’s entrance examination.

For some reason, Shen Tianci, who had said that he would come to join in the fun, did not appear. After Xiaoxiao and her mother watched her brother enter the academy, they brought Yun Yi and the others to clean the shop.

On the way there, Xiaoxiao sincerely expressed her surprise. “Little Big Brother Ah Yan is going to participate in the exam. Why didn’t he tell us?”

Yun Yi and the others chuckled. They were too embarrassed to say that their master had only decided yesterday.

They thought about it. The best way was to find a legitimate reason to meet and talk to the former clerk for the chamberlain of law enforcement of the Court of Judicial Review without anyone knowing and join the academy. Chen Huaimin was now a Law Teacher specially hired by the Bowen Academy. He was in charge of law books, punishment studies, and assessments.

The academy had set an elective system. This class was obviously an unpopular one. There would not be many people applying. At that time, he could use the lecture to discuss serious matters with Chen Huaimin.

While waiting, they and County Magistrate Shen had secretly hoarded a batch Of supplies needed to build the dam in the name of repairing the canal. They also contacted the craftsmen to ensure that they could be deployed at any time. It had to be said that Rong Yan saw the function of money. Everything was going well with County Magistrate Shen’s support. However, there was still no news about the evidence that could expose Prefect Yan’s crimes.

Xiaoxiao was just saying that. Deep down, she actually felt that it was better for Little Big Brother and Big Brother to go to the academy together. Not only could the two of them take care of each other, it was also more legitimate for her to borrow someone from this business partner, right?

For example, her father and second brother were still digging the canal. As for the cleaning of this new shop, if it was just her and her mother, even if Big Brother came to help after he was done, it would be unknown how long it would take to arrange the shop to the extent that it could be open for business. However, it was different with Yun Yi and the other agile adult men.

Even if Madam Song did not stay with them to avoid arousing suspicion, Xiaoxiao only needed to give them a few simple instructions and they would be able to do things in an orderly manner. What should be thrown away and replaced would be piled together. The corners would be cleaned up and the old shop would instantly become a very empty shop.

While Yun Yi and the others were Rong Yan’s personal guards, they also took on all the trivial matters other than cooking. They had long mastered housekeeping skills, making Xiaoxiao gasp in admiration.

If you guys are so capable, what will happen to the maidservants at home?” Yun Er opened his mouth and said, “Master has never used a maidservant since he was sensible, lest there are always people with evil intentions…” The rest of his words were interrupted by Yun Yi’s violent cough. Idiot! How could you say such things in front of a young lady!

Yun Er, who came back to his senses, hurriedly tried to salvage the situation. They bullied Master when he was young!”

This turn was stiff, but Xiaoxiao answered, “Someone still dares to bully him? He’s so skilled in martial arts.”

This time, Yun Er really sighed. “Master… isn’t very favored at home. He wasn’t beaten and scolded much on the surface, but he was ostracized in secret. He only learned martial arts to better protect himself.”

Xiaoxiao’s hand paused. “Is that so? No wonder I felt that he didn’t like to talk to people when I first saw him.”

Seeing her fall for this, Yun Er, who was already in a daze, wiped her eyes and said, “Master didn’t like to talk even more when he was young. He was also thin and small. If it weren’t for an elder with good culinary skills who couldn’t stand it anymore and brought him home to stay for a while, I don’t know how pitiful he would be.”

Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and imagined the little Rong Yan hugging his knees and curling up in the corner to rub his stomach. She clenched her fists and walked out. “I’ll get the oven down. I’ll bake the cake later.”

The moment she left, Yun Er was puzzled. “Miss Ning, why are you suddenly talking about food? Did I not perform well enough just now?”

Yun Yi chuckled and asked him, “Master, what do you like to eat the most now?”

Cloud Cake, hey, hey, hey, wait. Miss Ning called that Cloud Cake without cream a cake, so she was planning to make delicious food for Master? Hehehe, it seemed like his glib tongue was not bad. He made Miss Ning’s heart ache for Master.

There were many things to move today, so Rong Yan rented a carriage as a partner and let Yun Yi and the others volunteer to do the heavy work. He did not let Xiaoxiao and Madam Song run around and work. Hence, as soon as Xiaoxiao expressed her intention, a guard took over and moved the things out of the carriage before her.

Shopkeeper Qian took away all the things that Xiaoxiao did not need, so it was not difficult to take care of them. Then, they placed the tables, chairs, cutlery, and other things that they had prepared in the empty shop.

There was a simple small kitchen at the back of the shop. As it had not been used much, there was dust everywhere. Other than the iron pot, Xiaoxiao did not like the other kitchenware.

She was not particular about how to provide for her. She could swallow wild vegetables without oil and eat steamed buns mixed with chaff. She could also fill her stomach with water if she was really not full. Only her requirements for the kitchen were extremely high. Even when she first transmigrated and the family split up, her family was poor and could not eat a full meal. She had to ensure that the kitchen was spotless. The knives were bright and sharp, and the raw meat and cooked food had to be cut with different knives. When the conditions were better, the vegetables and meat had to be treated separately.

Looking at the pile of kitchen utensils in the small kitchen, she waved her hand. “Buy new ones!”

There were too many things missing from the kitchen, so Xiaoxiao simply handed the shop to Madam Song and Yun Er. Yun Yi thought that he would be reduced to a tool to move things, but he was not!

Because Miss Ning had bought too many things, even he could not move them all. Xiaoxiao had already gotten someone to send them to the shop. There were rice, noodles, grains, oil, cutlery, and kitchenware. She even specially went to a porcelain shop to order a few expensive and exquisite tea sets. The way she spent money like water made people unable to believe that she was just a farmer.

Halfway through, Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped. Yun Yi took a look and saw that it was a ready-made clothing shop..
