The person sitting behind the screen seemed to hesitate for a moment.

Then, she chuckled. “You’re actually willing to take in a disciple?”

“I’m fated with this girl.” The Immortal Crane looked at Ji Zhao with a gratified gaze. “Furthermore, this girl’s culinary skills are even better than yours.”

“Oh?” First Madam Qin was a little surprised. Then, she smiled and said, “I wonder if Miss Ji knows how to make snowflake cake?”

“Madam, are you talking about the square snowflake cake made of glutinous rice, sesame seeds, and sugar?” Ji Zhao asked carefully.

“Exactly.”

“l know how to make it.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble Miss Ji to make a snowflake cake in the kitchen, okay?”

Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Immortal Crane beside her. Seeing her master nod, she agreed, “Okay.”

A nanny in gray walked around the screen and walked in front of Ji Zhao. She bowed respectfully and said, “Miss, please follow me to the kitchen.’

“Okay.”

After Ji Zhao left, First Madam Qin was the first to ask, “I know Brother’s personality the best. Brother is a person who yearns for freedom. Why would you take in a disciple so easily? This Miss Ji must have something extraordinary, right?”

“Ah Tao is gentle and kind, and her culinary skills are good,” Immortal Crane explained in a low voice. “I was originally entrusted by someone to help this girl’s husband. I didn’t expect this girl’s personality to match my temper. She’s a good child.”

“Fangrong, I hope you can help take care of her.”

‘Why do you say that?” First Madam Qin was a little surprised.

“Lu Hongshan took a fancy to this girl’s husband and even poisoned her.” The Immortal Crane said with a complicated tone, “Back then, I gave you all the Fragrant Beauty I made..

After hearing the entire story, First Madam Qin fell into deep thought.

“Don’t worry, brother. I will definitely seek justice for Ah Tao.”

master was here to find someone to support her today. Although she was a little curious about the relationship between her master and Madam Qin, if her master was unwilling to tell her, there was no need for her to ask.

“Thank you, Nanny.” When the ingredients for making the snowflake cake were brought to him, Ji Zhao thanked her obediently.

“Miss, you’re too polite,” the nanny quickly said. “If you have any other orders, feel free to tell me.’

“Not at the moment,” Ji Zhao said politely with a faint smile.

After washing her hands, Ji Zhao prepared to make snowflake cakes.

First, she had to steam the washed glutinous rice and then mash it. Then, she had to add a suitable amount of sesame crumbs and crushed sugar. Then, she had to knead it into a pan. Finally, he had to brush a thin layer of oil in the pan and fry the bottom for a while before it was ready to be served.

Finally, cut it into the size of a mahjong cube and plate it.

First Madam Qin took a small bite of the snowflake cake and chuckled. “Brother was indeed not exaggerating. Ah Tao’s culinary skills are indeed extraordinary.”

“This snowflake cake is refreshing and delicious. The sweetness is moderate. It’s indeed delicious.”

Before leaving, Ji Zhao also received a greeting gift from First Madam Qin.

It was a white jade bracelet that was extremely smooth and warm to the touch.

“This gift is too precious. I can’t accept it.” Ji Zhao subconsciously wanted to refuse, but she heard First Madam Qin say, ‘Girl, you can’t refuse a gift from an elder!”

“This?” Ji Zhao could only cast a pleading look at her master.

“Take it.” Immortal Crane nodded at her. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back to the

After returning to the Yinchuan Inn, Immortal Crane locked himself in his room and refused to leave.

Ji Zhao was a little worried.

“Shen Yao, I feel that Master is a little down. What can I do to make him happier?” Ji Zhao, who was sitting in front of the desk, rested her chin on one hand with a worried expression.

“Don’t worry.” Shen Yao looked at her and comforted her gently, “Senior will be fine.”

Ji Zhao thought for a while and finally had an idea. “l think one should eat something sweet when they’re in a bad mood. Why don’t I go to the kitchen and make some sweet soup?”

“Shen Yao, what do you think?’

‘Yes, that’s a good idea. I’ll go with you.”

On the other side, First Madam Qin was only relieved after asking around about Ji Zhao’s background.

“Madam, are you afraid that Immortal Crane will be deceived?” Nanny Wu looked at her master and asked softly.

“Brother has roamed the martial world for many years and won’t be easily deceived.” First Madam Qin chuckled. “It’s just that I didn’t expect him to take in a disciple. He didn’t even hesitate to seek justice from me for this new disciple. ‘

Nanny Wu lowered her eyes and did not continue the conversation.

“All these years, I’ve been hoping that Sheng is still alive…” First Madam Qin’s tone was filled with grief.

“Madam, have you forgotten what the master said? As long as you pray sincerely, your wish will come true one day.” Nanny Wu quickly comforted her.

“Nanny, I’ve thought about it for a long time. Perhaps it’s time for us to return to the residence.” First Madam Qin sighed softly. “l hope that Sheng will come back early, but I don’t want the Qin family to have already fallen apart by the time he comes back. I have to do my best to guard the Qin family!”

Although Qin Minghong was a little surprised to learn that his aunt was about to move back to the manor, he was mostly happy.

It was just that in the Qin Residence, some people were happy while others were worried.

The person in charge of the Qin family was Madam Liu, Qin Chen’s second wife and Qin Minghong’s stepmother.

‘What exactly is going on? Why did Chen Fangrong suddenly want to come back?” Madam Liu gripped the teacup in her hand tightly, her long and narrow peach blossom eyes shining with a cold light!

Ever since Qin Sheng disappeared on the battlefield sixteen years ago, Chen Fangrong had been unable to recover from the setback. She stubbornly moved to the Qin family’s side courtyard and stayed there for sixteen years.

Over the years, Madam Liu had meticulously planned everything and slowly controlled all of the Qin family’s resources.

Once Chen Fangrong returned, wouldn’t she have to hand over her power?

This was not a good sign for Madam Liu.

“Madam, calm down.” The nanny beside her hurriedly advised, “First Madam has been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures for many years. Now, she has long developed a temperament of not listening to anything outside. Perhaps she just wants to come back and stay for a while? After all, it’s time for the person from Weirui Pavilion to get married.”

“Nanny, do you mean that Chen Fangrong wants to personally arrange Qin

Minghong’s marriage?’ After some guidance from the nanny by her side,

Madam Liu gradually felt relieved. ‘That’s right. Chen Fangrong is like a sister to the wife before me. If it weren’t for her secretly taking care of him all these years, Qin Minghong’s personality would have long been raised astray by me! ”

“Chen Fangrong only dared to go against me time and time again because of her illustrious family background.” Madam Liu gritted her teeth fiercely and was extremely angry..
