Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Ji Shuisheng returned ho, he bumped into Ji Xiaoying carrying a plate of steaming buns and a lamb chop with sauce to deliver food to Su Qing. When she saw that her brother had returned, she smiled and called out to him.
“Big brother.”
“Xiaoying, what happened to you guys in the Tartan Country?”
Ji Shuisheng asked as soon as he saw his sister. Ji Xiaoying widened her watery eyes and said exaggeratedly to her brother,
“We almost couldn’t return. Good fellow, it’s an assassin and rebellion. If not for Sister Su Qing’s efforts to turn the tide, the Tartan Kingdom would have a new Emperor.”
“What happened?”
When Ji Shuisheng heard that the situation was serious, he asked his sister. Ji Xiaoying then told him about the Empress’ rebellion and emphasized Sister Su Qing’s power.
“Big brother, you didn’t see it. Sister Su Qing waved her spear and shouted, ‘war god’s power,’ and those Tartan soldiers fell row by row. It was delightful to watch.”
Xiaoying was beaming joyfully as she spoke, but Ji Shuisheng was terrified. If Su Qing did not have that ability, this trip to Tartan would be a road of no return.
No wonder her attitude was so cold. She was probably frightened. Ji Shuisheng felt sorry for Su Qing. When he saw the plate of buns in his sister’s hand, he asked her for it.
“Give it to . I’ll send it over.”
“Alright, then I’ll go and eat. I’m so cold after drinking a stomach full of the northwest wind.”
Xiaoying was very tired and hungry but insisted on bringing food to Su Qing. It was apparent how much she cared about Su Qing.
It was best to have her brother do it for her. Her stomach was empty, and she was even hungrier when she slled the fragrance of the buns.
Ji Shuisheng returned to the winery with the stead buns and saw Su Qing rolling up her pants and sleeves to steam the wine. She was so focused on her work that she didn’t even notice that he had entered the house.
“Su Qing, I’ll do it. You eat the buns.”
Ji Shuisheng’s heart ached for Su Qing. Why was she so stubborn? She didn’t even take a break after coming back. He grabbed the wooden shovel and handed the stead buns and lamb chops to Su Qing.
“No need.”
Su Qing snatched the wooden shovel back and continued to work without raising her head. She was very strong. The specially made wooden shovel was half a ter long. It was cumberso to rub the soaked lees, but she did it effortlessly and very quickly.
“Give it to . Go and rest.”
Su Qing stopped what she was doing and looked at Ji Shuisheng coldly. Her voice was even colder. Seeing that she was disobedient, Ji Shuisheng frowned and ordered her.
“I’m not your subordinate. You have no right to order .”
Ji Shuisheng froze on the spot. Looking at Su Qing’s ice-cold gaze, he felt as if there was a long river between him and Su Qing. After a long ti, he finally said,
“I just… My heart aches for you.”
“No need.”
Su Qing’s voice turned colder. She no longer looked at him and continued to work.
“I heard from Xiaoying that you were in danger in Tartan. It was my fault for not going with you.”
Ji Shuisheng wondered if Su Qing was angry that he didn’t accompany her to Tartan. He took the initiative to apologize.

Su Qing suddenly stopped what she was doing and looked at Ji Shuisheng with fire in her eyes. She was furious. ‘You’re going to find your fiancee, and you’re still here to disturb my peace? Do you want to have a foot in two boats and enjoy the beauty of the sa person?’
Su Qing wanted to shout these words out, but her pride didn’t allow her to.
Ji Shuisheng looked at her in confusion. Why was Su Qing angry again? His eyes were perturbed. He didn’t seem to have said anything wrong, right?
“Please leave.”
Su Qing no longer looked at Ji Shuisheng and ordered him to leave with a cold face. She did not say anything and did not show any rcy.
Su Qing once again chased out Ji Shuisheng. He did not even leave behind the buns he had brought over.
“Shuisheng.”
Qiu Yongkang walked over and saw Ji Shuisheng standing in a daze at the entrance of the winery. He smiled and called out to him.
“Yongkang, you ca at the right ti. In the future, the inco from the winery and selling dicine will be Su Qing’s. Go back, calculate the accounts now, and give the money to Su Qing.”
When Ji Shuisheng saw Qiu Yongkang, he thought of Su Qing’s words. Did Su Qing think he was greedy and wanted to take her money?
Su Qing could not be blad for being angry. In the past, he did not overthink it because everyone’s inco along the way was counted as public inco. He did not take it himself. It seed that he was negligent.
The inco of the winery would get better and better, and the ointnt business would also be very profitable. They should indeed be separated.
“What? Split up?”
Qiu Yongkang asked. He didn’t expect to split the accounts.
“Yes, separate. Go back and settle the accounts. Give Su Qing what should be hers.”
Ji Shuisheng nodded. He was in a bad mood and didn’t say anything more to Qiu Yongkang. He took the plate of buns and left. Before he left, he looked back with a complicated expression.
Qiu Yongkang waited for Ji Shuisheng to leave and only left after glancing at the winery.
Su Qing only stopped when she was utterly exhausted. She did not know how to face Ji Shuisheng. It was ti to leave. Otherwise, would she stay and watch him get married?
But where?
Her parents and younger brother were both in Mo City. How could she let them suffer in the cold?
Su Qing was upset. She did not want to see Ji Shuisheng again for the ti being. If she had to, she would go out and do business. She would find a reliable person to teach how to mix drinks at the winery.
As for the workers, they could recruit them from the newly arrived disaster victims and pay them monthly. Many people were willing to work.
Who should 1 choose to make the cocktail?
Su Qing trusted Xiaoying the most, but if she let Xiaoying work in the winery, she would have to deal with Ji Shuisheng, so she rejected Xiaoying.
“Cousin, it’s ti to eat.”
Luan Hong ran over to call Su Qing ho for dinner. When Yang Ruxue saw them returning, she asked the cook to make two more dishes. The three of them returned to Mo City together. Su Qing went to deliver the horse to Cheng Yu, while Xiaoying and Luan Hong went ho first.
Su Qing had hired this old woman to cook for her mother. Her mother had never worked before, and she couldn’t always be by her side. She had to add maids to her mother one after another to ensure her mother lived the sa life as Luo City.
Su Qing’s eyes lit up when she saw Luan Hong. Wasn’t this ready-made?
“Luan Hong, how about 1 teach you how to mix drinks?”
Su Qing asked Luan Hong. She was a delicate young lady, so she was afraid she did not want to do this work.
“Sure.”
Luan Hong nodded happily. Everyone had sothing to do in Mo City. She was the only one who was bored. She wanted to be as capable as her cousin.
“Go ho and eat first. 1’11 teach you after dinner.”
Hearing Luan Hong agree, Su Qing felt relieved.
The sisters left the winery and saw Qiu Yongkang waiting at the entrance. Su Qing glanced at him indifferently. She was in a bad mood and didn’t want to talk to him.
“Su Qing, Shuisheng asked to split the finance. 1 want to ask when you will start settling the money?”
Qiu Yongkang asked Su Qing when he saw her.
“Starting from this trip, forget about the past.”
Su Qing didn’t want any trouble. The money and things she had given him in the past were her way of repaying Ji Shuisheng for finding the Lingzhi mushroom for her.
“Alright.”
Qiu Yongkang smiled and agreed. He watched Su Qing leave before leaving.
That night, Ji Shuisheng went to talk to Su Qing. Qiu Yongkang, Li Daniu, and Jiang Laoqi ca with two jars of wine.
It had been long since the brothers had gathered together, so Ji Shuisheng could only drink with them. He drank too much and woke up the following day.. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look for Su Qing, but she had left Mo City!
