“Ma, we don’t have to do that. Sister Xiang was angry, so we shouldn’t confront her. If she gets provoked she will pick on us.”

Li Hongi said, “Even if we don’t react she will pick on us anyway.”

Ye Xiaoxian thought about it and sighed. “A tall tree catches the wind – a person of high position is liable to be attacked. It’s impossible to make others not pick on us. We won’t provoke others but if they cause trouble for us we won’t be afraid of the trouble!”

That morning Ye Xiaoxian only stayed in the restaurant for one hour. Afterwards she gave her instructions to the others she then went back ho. She needed to make so seasonings secretly at ho. Before making it she carefully closed all the doors and windows.

She had just moved the stuff into the room and suddenly heard so noise at the gate in the yard. Ye Xiaoxian was alard, as she was worried about being spied on by soone else.

However, there ca Xiao Baoshan’s voice from outside. “Little Ye, are you in?”

Ye Xiaoxian’s heart beat wildly all of a sudden. She put down her work and went to open the door imdiately.

Only she, Li Hongi and Xiao Baofeng usually lived in this new house, so whenever she was ho alone she would lock the door safely and secure it with a wooden beam.

Ye Xiaoxian opened the door and saw the large, tall figure of Xiao Baoshan standing outside with his handso face. She blushed instantly.

“Baoshan, how co you ca back now?” asked Ye Xiaoxian.

Xiao Baoshan went in while talking. “I went to sail with a ship a couple of days ago and just ca back this morning.”

“Didn’t you go to the restaurant?” asked Ye Xiaoxian.

“I haven’t. I wanted to co ho to see if you were here. If you weren’t here I’d have gone to the restaurant to find you.”

Ye Xiaoxian felt a bit shy. Since he had brought a horse that day and kissed her beside the river bank, she had begun to miss him and looked forward to his return.

But as a woman in this era she was supposed to be rather self-controlled, so she did not show her passion and pretended to speak calmly. “Have you had breakfast yet?”

“Yes, I have. You?” He walked in front of her.

Ye Xiaoxian smiled. “Look at the ti. I have surely had breakfast.”

“Are you making seasonings at ho?” He walked towards her with his breath blowing on her face. She felt her body becoming extrely warm.

It was early spring but Ye Xiaoxian felt that her body was sweating, as if feverish. She wanted to take off her cotton jacket, but as Xiao Baoshan was here she felt too shy to take if off in front of him, so she had to bear it.

“Yes, I’m doing the seasonings at ho so I didn’t go to the restaurant,” said Ye Xiaoxian. She then pretended to put so star anise and Zanthoxylum together and ground them into powder.

Xiao Baoshan took over for her and said, “Let help you.”

Xiao Baoshan was strong and had seen Ye Xiaoxian grinding spices before, so he knew how to grind it. It took no ti before he had finished all the work for Ye Xiaoxian.

She involuntarily praised him. “You’re so strong.”

“I’m always very strong. You know that,” said Xiao Baoshan.

“...” Ye Xiaoxian blushed and once again suspected that Xiao Baoshan was flirting, but when she looked at Xiao Baoshan, he still put on a straight face which did not look suspicious at all.

“I’ll go in and pour so water for you,” said Ye Xiaoxian.

As she was at ho today she spared so charcoal. A bottle of boiled water was on the top of the charcoal.

Ye Xiaoxian poured a bowl of boiled water and was going to give it to Xiao Baoshan. She was about to turn around when Xiao Baoshan also ca in, so she accidentally spilled so hot water on him.

“Oops, sorry, you suddenly ca in...” Ye Xiaoxian was worried about his clothes getting wet, so she hurriedly put down the bowl, took out a handkerchief and wiped his clothes.

However, Xiao Baoshan suddenly gripped her hand and gazed at her rather affectionately.

Ye Xiaoxian’s face blushed again.

What is he going to do?

Xiao Baoshan lowered his head slowly to reach her lips.

She was nervous and took a step back while wondering why Xiao Baoshan used to be very thick-headed and never made a move, but lately seed to have changed into another person? Has he learned this from so experts?

He went sailing everyday and must have seen all kinds of promiscuous people whose behavior could easily rub off on Xiao Baoshan.

Seeing Ye Xiaoxian withdrawing, Xiao Baoshan firstly paused but then, again, pulled her close to him and continued to kiss her.

Ye Xiaoxian failed to say anything. They started with kissing and ended up with you know what.

Xiao Baoshan panted and repeated, “Little Ye, you’re mine. Say it, you’re mine.”

Ye Xiaoxian had no other option but have to do what he told her to. She ended up collapsing in exhaustion.

Xiao Baoshan had only been back for several hours and was going to leave in the afternoon. He explained that he still had another sailing job in the evening.

She was too tired to even get up while he was still extrely energetic without looking remotely tired. Ye Xiaoxian truly suspected that he ca back this ti specially to make her sweat.

“Ah...” She sighed deeply in bed and turned over, but when she thought about Xiao Baoshan she suddenly giggled.

At last, she pulled up the duvet and covered herself in it tightly. She was feeling so shy that she thought she was going to die!

In the evening Ye Xiaoxian took the seasonings to the restaurant and then did so accounting work at the counter.

Li Hongi was originally serving custors outside but when she saw Ye Xiaoxian giggle while fiddling with the abacus she felt confused. What kind of happy thing has Little Ye encountered?

After Li Hongi observed her closely, the look on Little Ye’s face was not like so ordinary happiness but like sothing that happens in spring.

She could not help but walk over and asked, “Little Ye, why did you co so late today?”

Ye Xiaoxian spoke before thinking. “Baoshan ca back today and I spent so ti with him.”

“Oh...” Li Hongi drawled. So that explained it.

“Where’s Baoshan?” asked Li Hongi again.

Ye Xiaoxian blushed and said, “He went back to the dock.”

“So soon?”

“He said that he just ca to have a look back ho and did not have anything important to do.”

“Why didn’t he co back to see ?” asked Li Hongi with a smile.

Ye Xiaoxian said shyly, “Ma...”

“Haha, he ca back to see you in particular. I see, I see. Well, Little Ye, have you got changed? I don’t think you were wearing the sa clothes in the morning.”

Ye Xiaoxian’s face was scarlet. “Ma, please stop.”

“...” The mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law were talking playfully in front of the counter and did not notice that new custors had arrived. The people who ca in were Fan Shanding and a friend of his.

Fan Shanding always knew that Ye Xiaoxian was good at cooking but after his son’s one-month birthday he had not eaten any food cooked by Ye Xiaoxian. After all he just had a son and once he left work he would go back ho to check on his son.

He did not stop paying all his attention to his son until the new year. Also, he sotis felt the food cooked in his own family was too light. He sohow thought about the dishes cooked by Ye Xiaoxian that day and after he had discovered she owned the restaurant he decided he’d have to go there soti.

After they entered Fan Shanding saw Ye Xiaoxian with a blushed face being teased by Li Hongi.

Fan Shanding felt rather strange. It was not like he had never seen Ye Xiaoxian before. When he saw her twice previously he only felt that Ye Xiaoxian was stubborn and headstrong, but now when he laid his eyes on her, he found that she possessed a kind of feminine charm which was beyond words. She was active and also timid, like a Chinese rose that had just blood, dripping with dew.

Fan Shanding was in a daze looking at Ye Xiaoxian and felt a tickle in his heart.

After a long while, Li Hongi and Ye Xiaoxian saw Fan Shanding enter.

Ye Xiaoxian hurriedly said, “Ma, the tax official from the governnt office is here.”

“The tax official? Him?” asked Li Hongi.

“Let’s go now and serve him.” Ye Xiaoxian dared not slight Fan Shanding, so she pulled Li Hongi over to greet him and said, “Sir, how do you do? Are you here to dine in our restaurant?”

Fan Shanding’s eyes were fixed on Ye Xiaoxian. From her bowing to greet him to getting up again. Every movent of hers emanated a charm possessed by young won.

“I ca here to eat,” said Fan Shanding. He was a little tongue-tied.

“Sir, this way please.” Ye Xiaoxian served him with extre hospitality, leading Fan Shanding and his friend to the booth on the second floor. She then asked him, “Sir, what would you like to eat? Our signature dishes are...”

Fan Shanding said, “We’ll have a portion of braised pork and a Pearl and Erald Soup, and so wine also.”

“Yes sir, just a minute. I’ll ask the kitchen to cook your al right away,” said Ye Xiaoxian.

Ye Xiaoxian turned around and went downstairs while Fan Shanding looked at her back. She had slender figure with curves. Her waist was slim and her behind was plump which made her look very attractive.

Downstairs, Li Hongi felt a bit uneasy. “Little Ye, why did that tax official co here to eat?”

Ye Xiaoxian smiled. “Ma, even a tax official needs to eat als. Who doesn’t?”

“But why do I feel that he...” Li Hongi had been through a lot of n and she could tell the nasty thoughts in a man’s mind from just one look. “Oh, maybe I thought too much. Little Ye, I’ll serve him later. Don’t you go,” said Li Hongi carefully.

“Right, I’ll go to the kitchen to deliver the orders then,” said Ye Xiaoxian.

Li Hongi looked at Ye Xiaoxian’s back and also found that Ye Xiaoxian was seeming more and more good-looking. For a woman who had a man, she was indeed different from a woman without a man. A woman without a man looked unripe no matter how you looked at her, however, once she had a man she would beco alluring.

It seed that she had to guard Ye Xiaoxian on behalf of Baoshan.

Fan Shanding did not find this al very tasty as his mind was occupied by Ye Xiaoxian’s looks. Fan Shanding also had wife and concubines back ho but he was already fed up with them. Apart from his little son, he did not even feel like going back ho.

After he finished the al he then asked his subordinate, “Don’t we have two attendants in the governnt office? One is called Xiao Tieshu and the other is called Xiao Tongshu. Go and inquire about their family issues, especially their second household.”

The subordinate was a little puzzled but as it was an order from the tax official he thought it must be so kind of case, so he went out to do it like a loyal dog.

Xiao Tieshu and Xiao Tongshu were still on duty and when the subordinate of the tax official ca to ask them about the second household, they looked very annoyed. Last ti they made fools of themselves because of Xiao Baozhu. As ti had passed they had beco more and more confused about what was going on with the second household.

For example, during new year each family had to pay their respects and worship their ancestors, but only Xiao Baoshan ca back to represent the second household. He left right away after he finished the ritual. They figured that perhaps after a longer while the second household would separate themselves from the Xiao Family completely.
