Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Named in Official History

Indeed, thanks to the mooncakes, Jimei Residence made a great fortune throughout Daqi this time.

On the first day that the Jimei Residence’s chef went to help Qiao Xiaomai, Shopkeeper He sent the recipe to every Jimei Residence around. To prevent Zuixian Building from finding out the method, Shopkeeper He, as Qiao Xiaomai instructed, found a secluded place to stock up on goods, chose an auspicious day, and released all the goods at once, along with the anecdote of Tong Sanlang’s phrase, “Raise your head to see the bright moon, lower your head to miss your hometown”.

The only regret is that Tong Sanlang only achieved Jieyuan in the exam this time. If he had achieved Zhuangyuan, the value of these mooncakes would have risen even further.

Think about it, a Zhuangyuan only emerges every three years, and the wife of this Zhuangyuan came up with such a delicious dessert with such a good meaning for her husband’s exam. When the news of this spreads, all literate people will probably want to buy and taste it.

Given this, the sale of mooncakes is not only expected to sweep across Daqi, but is likely to go down in unofficial history.

No, with that excellent quote of “Raise your head to see the bright moon, lower your head to miss your hometown”, it might even go down in official history.

The woman is skilled with her hands, and the man can study. Oh my, what an enviable pair they make!

Jianing Prefecture.

Yang Ye looks at the map of Daqi. He is running from one county town to another, and is still on his way out of Jianing Prefecture where the capital city is located.

Jimei Residence is only established in the prefectural city, not in the county town. However, given Yang Ye’s prestigious status and frequent patronage of Jimei Residence, the people of Jimei Residence took the initiative to deliver mooncakes to the Prince Wei Residence.

The people of Prince Wei Residence then quickly dispatched riders to deliver them to Yang Ye, along with the anecdote.

Yang Ye savors the mooncake, which has a nice texture but lacks the familiar aroma, listens to the anecdote, finishes two mooncakes, wipes his hands with a handkerchief, and snorts.

He picks up his pen and begins to write letters.

One letter is addressed to Qiao Xiaomai, and the other to Yang Wenxiao.

The letter to Qiao Xiaomai is asking for mooncakes.

The letter to Yang Wenxiao is about selecting a new crown princess.

He is currently going from one county town to another to announce the case of Zhuang Lühe. Since he has to travel all over Daqi, isn’t it just the right time to seek a new queen?

Qiao Xiaomai is truly outrageous. While he is running around for business, he has to hear about her loving tales with Tong Sanlang.

Annoying!

After writing the two letters, he sends them out.

After writing, he thinks about the journey starting tomorrow and can’t help but fall into deep thought and melancholy.

The best roads in all of Daqi are between the Capital City and Bailu Town. The roads elsewhere, like the official roads, aren’t bad. They are repaired every year, but they are dirt roads with pits and bumps, making carriage rides bumpy.

To be swaying on such roads until the New Year is terrifying even to imagine.

The more he thought about it, the more miserable he felt, and he couldn’t help but take up his pen again to complain to Qiao Xiaomai.

Who is he undertaking this task for?

It’s for Qiao Xiaomai!

Qiao Xiaomai must compensate him!

Bailu Town.

The day after Qiao Dazhu’s wedding, the restless Qiao Xiaomai began making the mooncakes to send to Yang Ye.

For this, she specifically asked Tong Sanlang to make a new mold, wanting to stamp the words “Safe Journey” on the mooncake.

For these mooncakes, she carefully selected eight flavors: lotus seed paste, chestnut, white bean paste, egg yolk, ham, fresh meat, black sesame, jujube paste. There were eight mooncakes for each flavor, a total of sixty-four mooncakes.

This was just one set. She had to send another to Ya Wuxia, and also to the dean of the valley and the guard Xiaoyang. Altogether, it would be almost two hundred mooncakes.

Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang made these mooncakes themselves with great effort. After they were done, the two of them went together to the town to find the guard Xiaoyang.
