Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General-Chapter 205: Opening of the Teahouse

After returning to her villa, Feng Qingyi went out to browse the supermarket, bought some ingredients, and then returned home to start making cookies.

After a busy afternoon, Feng Qingyi packed up the freshly baked cookies, ready to take a good rest. Baking cookies wasn't an easy task after all.

Looking at the packed cookies, Feng Qingyi suddenly thought of Qin Yuchuan, so she sent him a small bag.

Upon receiving the package, Qin Yuchuan tasted a slightly sweet cookie and picked up the phone he had in his sleeve.

[Yuchuan: Did you make these?]

[Qingyi: How did you know?]

[Yuchuan: Just a guess.]

[Qingyi: How are they? Isn't the taste super great?]

[Yuchuan: Qingqing is already sweet enough, no need to add so much sugar.]

[Qingyi: You only need to say the first half of that sentence. Besides, I didn't make them specifically for you. Take it or leave it!]

[Yuchuan: If they weren't made specifically for me, who were they made for?]

[Qingyi: My tea house is opening tomorrow. I plan to give these cookies to customers for free, it can also serve as promotion for the tea house.]

[Yuchuan: Do you need any help?]

[Qingyi: Don't worry! No need to concern yourself, I've already hired staff. I'll just be the hands-off boss.]

[Yuchuan: Hmm, don't tire yourself out.]

[Qingyi: I'm not tired at all. On the contrary, I'm very happy. I used to play games where I opened taverns and inns, but I never thought I'd get to experience it in real life. It's quite interesting when you think about it.]

[Yuchuan: As long as you're happy.]

[Qingyi: Don't forget we're having dinner together tomorrow night.]

[Yuchuan: I remember.]

[Qingyi: Good, see you tomorrow.]

The next day, Peng Lai Residence officially opened.

Firecrackers went off at the entrance, and Li Yi stood at the door of the tea house to welcome guests. As it was morning, there weren't many people around.

Feng Qingyi and Xu Linghe sat leisurely on the first floor, chatting.

"Qingyi, there's no one here. Should we go out and take a look?" Xu Linghe suggested.

Feng Qingyi shook her head, "It's early in the morning, it's normal that there's no one. Here, have some of these cookies. I made them myself."

Xu Linghe picked up a cookie from the plate and took a bite.

"These taste amazing! If our tea house sells these, we'll make a fortune for sure."

Feng Qingyi smiled and said, "Well, we have to let them taste it first. Today, we'll give them out for free."

Outside the Peng Lai Residence, Xuanyuan Xi, supported by Bai Wei, stepped down from a carriage.

"Is this the tea house Qingyi opened?" Xuanyuan Xi asked.

Bai Wei looked at the sign above the door, "It should be. It looks like it just opened, there doesn't seem to be many people."

"Let's go in then!" Xuanyuan Xi said, leading Bai Wei into the tea house.

When Xuanyuan Xi walked in, Feng Qingyi was chatting happily with Xu Linghe.

Upon seeing Xuanyuan Xi, Feng Qingyi hurried over to greet them, "Aunt, Bai Wei, why are you here?"

Xuanyuan Xi replied, "We heard you opened a tea house, so we came to show our support. Do you have anything to eat or drink?"

"Thank you, Aunt. Let me take you to a private room on the third floor," Feng Qingyi said, holding Xuanyuan Xi's arm.

Xuanyuan Xi looked around the main hall, which was empty, "No need to go upstairs. Bai Wei and I can just sit here in the main hall."

"Well, if there's anything you'd like to drink, everything on that wall over there is available," Feng Qingyi said, pointing to a menu board on the opposite wall.

Xuanyuan Xi looked at it, "Then we'll have two cups of Dragon Well tea, and a plate of almond and walnut cakes."

"Alright, I've got it. I'll go to the kitchen for a moment," Feng Qingyi said, preparing to head to the back.

The waiter spoke up, "Owner, I'll go. Please rest."

Seeing someone else was going, Feng Qingyi quickly invited Xuanyuan Xi and Bai Wei to sit down.

"Aunt, Bai Wei, please have a seat. This is my good friend, Xu Linghe."

Xuanyuan Xi looked at Xu Linghe and smiled, "Miss Xu, thank you for taking care of Qingyi."

Xu Linghe replied, "Princess, you're too kind. It's not about taking care. Qingyi and I are good friends, we should help each other."

Soon, the waiter brought out the tea and cakes, along with a plate of cookies that Feng Qingyi had made.

Bai Wei looked at the cookies and said, "I don't think we ordered this plate. Where did it come from?"

Feng Qingyi replied, "I made these. They're complimentary."

Xuanyuan Xi picked up a cookie and tasted it, "Qingyi's skills are really impressive!"

"Miss Feng, you're too amazing. I've never had pastries like these before. They're sweet but not cloying. They're delicious!" Bai Wei couldn't stop praising the cookies.

Feng Qingyi said, "If you like them, I'll make some and send them to you next time."

"Qingyi, now that you've opened a tea house, you must be very busy. There's no need to trouble yourself. If we want to eat them, we'll come here. It's not far from our residence," Xuanyuan Xi said.

Feng Qingyi nodded with a smile, "Then you're welcome anytime."

After finishing a cup of tea and eating a few cookies, Xuanyuan Xi bid farewell to Feng Qingyi and left.

The waiter cleaned the table, and Xu Linghe sat back down next to Feng Qingyi.

"Your future mother-in-law is really nice to you! She even came to support you and brought gifts."

Feng Qingyi replied, "She is indeed very kind."

After Xuanyuan Xi left, more people gradually came to the tea house.

The peak hours came after noon, when the tea house welcomed a large number of customers. Feng Qingyi and Xu Linghe also went to help.

"Isn't this Miss Xu and Miss Mu? How come you're working as waitresses here?" Shangguan Yi's voice rang out in the main hall.

Feng Qingyi remembered what Qian Jue had said about him wanting to make a move on them, and her impression of him dropped even further.

"Young Master Shangguan, if you want to drink tea, please go upstairs. If you're here to cause trouble, get out of here."

Shangguan Yi stared at Feng Qingyi and said, "Oh, a woman who doesn't stay at home properly, but comes out to open a tea house, showing her face in public. Can't I say a few words about that?"

"...Shangguan Yi, does my coming out in public and opening a tea house bother you? If you can't stand it, just leave!" Feng Qingyi didn't want to waste words with him.

Shangguan Yi stood in the middle of the hall, "Everyone, please judge. She's the owner of this tea house, but now she's trying to drive customers away. What kind of logic is this?"

All eyes in the room focused on Feng Qingyi, waiting to hear her explanation.

Feng Qingyi's face showed no change in emotion, "Young Master Shangguan maliciously picked a fight first, and now he's trying to twist the facts. I don't know what exactly you're trying to do."

"Cousin, why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to accompany me to Jinxiu Workshop?" A young woman wearing a blue dress walked in, supported by her maid.

Seeing Shen Lanyan, Shangguan Yi said, "Lanyan, why did you follow me here?"

Shen Lanyan looked at Feng Qingyi and Xu Linghe curiously, "Cousin, who are these two?"

Shangguan Yi replied, "This is Miss Xu, the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and this is Miss Mu, the one from the countryside I told you about before."

Hearing Shangguan Yi's introduction, Shen Lanyan tried to discreetly size up Feng Qingyi.
