‘Second Brother You, you don’t have to comfort me.’

Looking at Second Brother You’s troubled expression, Ji Zhao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“1 know I’m an average painter.”

Speaking of which, it was strange. If Ji Zhao was given a carrot, she was completely confident that she could carve a flower on it.

However, if this kitchen knife became a paintbrush, her skills would be very ordinary.

‘Ah Tao, why did you draw this gourd… Peanut?” Second Manager You asked curiously as he seriously admired the painting. “I’d like to draw a trademark for the oil press.”

‘Trademark? What do you mean?’

…..
‘Trademarks are the logo of goods,” Ji Zhao explained with a smile. “If the peanut oil produced by our oil press factory has a logo, not only can it effectively prevent other peanut oil from impersonating us, but it can also increase our brand awareness.”

“1f Ah Tao is a man, you will definitely be able to make a name for yourself in the business world.” Qin Minghong, who happened to hear this, praised her generously.

‘Brother Qin?” Ji Zhao subconsciously turned around. Her gaze could not help but land on Shen Yao’s face. “Are you guys done chatting?

‘Yeah.’

Shen Yao walked to her side with a smile. After seeing the painting that Ji Zhao had made, had an iea. He picked up the brush beside him and hurriedly added a few strokes.

‘Shen Yao, aren’t you too amazing?

After Shen Yao’s modifications, the logo that Ji Zhao had made instantly became much clearer.

He anthropomorphized the round little peanut and added some water droplets around it, forming a cute little sun pattern.

‘Golden Sun Peanut Oil.” Ji Zhao quickly hugged Shen Yao’s arm and said coquettishly, “Shen Yao, can you help me write these five words too?”

The golden sunlight gave off a very healthy feeling!

This also meant that their peanut oil was especially healthy!

‘Okay!”

After the ink dried up, Ji Zhao carefully picked up the design and said to Qin Minghong with a smile, “Brother Qin, please copy more of this pattern and paste it on the peanut oil we produce!”

‘Alright.” Qin Minghong immediately nodded. ‘That’s an excellent name.”

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was dusk.

Ji Zhao, who was sitting in the carriage, was drowsy.

Shen Yao gently rubbed her face and said softly, “Ah Tao, if you’re tired, why don’t you sleep for a while?”

He immediately straightened his back so that Ji Zhao could lean comfortably on his shoulder.

‘Shen Yao, Brother Qin said that he will visit tomorrow.” Ji Zhao narrowed her eyes and said in a low voice, “What do you think I should make to entertain them?”

‘Anything is fine,” Shen Yao said gently. “After all, my Ah Tao’s culinary skills are unparalleled. Every delicacy you make is delicious.”

Ji Zhao was a little embarrassed by the praise. “You shouldn’t praise me…”

‘Ah Tao doesn’t like it?” Shen Yao pinched the tip of her nose dotingly and said gently, ‘But I meant every word I said just now!”

‘Smooth-tongued-‘t

Shen Yao suddenly grabbed her head and kissed her gently.

Ji Zhao, who was caught off guard by the sneak attack, blinked in a daze.

‘You…”

‘Tm proving that I’m not glib-tongued at this moment.” Shen Yao leaned close to her ear and breathed.

That warm breath landed beside her ear. That feeling was numbing.

‘Il, I, I… I’m sleepy…”

Ji Zhao felt that her heart was beating wildly. She hurriedly closed her eyes and muttered softly.

‘Ah Tao.” Shen Yao’s hand suddenly landed on her slender waist, and his voice became even gentler. “You’re so cute.”

You’re so cute.

Ji Zhao’s lips curled up happily. She closed her eyes and leaned into his arms. Soon, she fell asleep.

In the blink of an eye, it was early evening. Shen Dashan was the first to enter the central room.

‘Lanhua, why are these dishes raw?” Shen Dashan asked as he looked at the bean curd and spinach on the table.

‘We’re having fish head hotpot tonight!” Zhao Lanhua replied with a smile. ‘Don’t be anxious. Ah Tao said that the fish head will be ready soon!”

Two hours ago, in the Shen family’s kitchen.

Ji Zhao was still preparing the side dishes for the hotpot.

‘Ah Tao, take a look. Is this enough?” Second Brother Shen, who was sitting in front of the stove and looking at the fire, raised the large number of wooden sticks in his hand and asked loudly.

‘Enough!”

‘Eldest Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, do as I say and put these mutton on the wooden skewers. Don’t be too anxious. Be careful of your hands!” Ji Zhao smiled and reminded them before turning around to prepare the charcoal.

‘The lamb skewers roasted with fruit wood charcoal are not only delicious, but they also have a faint fragrance.’

Ji Zhao placed the charcoal evenly on the special barbecue stove and placed the wire net above it. She turned to look at Shen Yao beside her and said with a smile, “Shen Yao, I’ll leave the ignition to you!’

‘Okay.”

At a quarter past eight, the fish head hotpot was served on the table.

There were fragrant lamb skewers placed in front of everyone.

“Father, Mother, eat it while it’s hot-‘t Ji Zhao picked up the lamb skewers and greeted them with a smile. “This lamb skewers have to be eaten while it’s hot to taste delicious!”

‘This method of eating is very rare.” Shen Dashan imitated Ji Zhao’s actions and quickly finished the lamb skewer. Then, he eagerly gave a thumbs up. “Fragrant!”

‘Second Brother You gave us 30 catties of mutton,” Ji Zhao said as she grilled the skewers.

‘Ah Tao, I heard from Third Brother that Young Master Qin and Second Manager You are coming to our house tomorrow?” Zhao Lanhua thought for a moment and quickly said, “1 originally wanted to go back to the Tian Family Village tomorrow. Since our family will have guests tomorrow, I’ll wait for the day after tomorrow, alright?”

‘Okay, thank you, Mother.” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded.

‘Ah Tao, have you ever thought about opening your own restaurant?” Eldest Brother Shen, who had eaten more than ten lamb skewers in a row, burped in satisfaction. Then, he looked at Ji Zhao and asked curiously, “Your culinary skills are so good. If you open a restaurant, business will definitely not be bad!” ‘To be honest, it’s not that I haven’t thought of opening a restaurant,” Ji Zhao smiled faintly and said softly, “It’s just that I feel that we can’t be too hasty. Nowadays, the business of the oil extraction workshop and the fried snack shop is not completely stable, so I want to wait a couple of years before I open a restaurant.”

In fact, the more important reason was that Hongxing Restaurant already existed in the county city. Ji Zhao felt that if she wanted to be friends with Qin Minghong for a long time, it was best for her not to open a shop in Dingyuan County. This way, she would not offend Qin Minghong’s interests.

Most importantly, Ji Zhao was an ambitious person. She wanted to save up money first and open a restaurant in the prefecture capital when the time was right.

‘That’s true.” Eldest Brother Shen nodded in agreement. ‘Actually, I’m thinking of expanding the Shen Ji Pastry Shop, but I don’t have any leads for the time being. However, there are a few shops with good geographical locations on East Street. I originally thought that if Ah Tao wants to open a restaurant, we can discuss the price of the shops together..”
