The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Chapter 540 It wasn't that I wanted to steal it.

Du Mingxian immediately stopped in her tracks. "Auntie, this isn't the way to the kitchen yard."

The old woman turned around and smiled, her eyes crinkling. "You little rascal, you actually figured it out?"

"I've been coming here often lately, so I can tell this isn't the way to the kitchen or the yard. Where are you taking me, Auntie?"

The old woman chuckled, "You're a very composed girl. Our young lady has been observing you for many days and wants to meet you today."

"Huh? But I haven't prepared at all today, how can I see Miss?"

The old woman comforted her, "Don't worry, the young lady must have her reasons for wanting to see you. Just focus on helping her, and she will definitely treat you well."

Du Mingxian thought to herself, "Of course I won't treat you unfairly. Since I started making milk tea, I've received almost a thousand taels in rewards. And that doesn't even include the fact that I have to buy the ingredients myself each time. These things aren't very valuable, so I've earned quite a bit."

"Thank you, Auntie. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet the future Crown Princess."

"Don't worry, we've helped each other out. Without you, this old woman of mine would have a hard time in the yard. Now that you're here, thanks to your connections, I've managed to get a small manager position, and I believe things will only get better from here on out."

Du Mingxian said frankly, "We are helping each other, so I won't refuse."

As the two talked, the old woman led Du Mingxian to Miss Tian's courtyard.

When she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Du Mingxian felt her body stiffen. Last time, she was trapped here for a long time. She never expected that she could walk in openly now.

Once inside, she didn't dare look around, appearing timid and cowardly. After greeting the old woman, she stood quietly.

"Have you brought the person here?" the woman asked sweetly.

The old woman replied very respectfully, "Yes, Miss, the person has arrived."

"You old man, you not only have a good eye, but you're also fast on your feet."

"It is my honor to serve Miss. I should do my best. If I cannot even do this, I will be ashamed of Miss's past kindness."

"Good to know." Miss Tian said in a deep voice. A maid helped her comb her hair, and she slowly got up and walked to the main seat to sit down.

Her voice was languid yet carried an undeniable air of authority, "Get up. I don't have the habit of punishing my servants."

Du Mingxian bowed respectfully, "Thank you, Miss." After standing up, she stood there quietly like a wooden statue, not moving at all. She had no intention of hiding her growing belly.

Miss Tian was slowly eating grapes, waiting for Du Mingxian to speak. However, neither of them spoke for a while, and they just sat and stood quietly.

The old woman standing by was getting anxious. She glanced at Du Mingxian several times, wanting to give her a look, but all her excitement was directed at the fool.

Du Mingxian didn't move at all. Despite the old woman's repeated attempts to hint at her, even when she heard the old woman's breathing change, she still didn't move.

The first time I met Miss Tian, ​​I realized that sometimes it's all about first impressions. She works in the food industry, so naturally she needs to project an honest and unassuming image.

The old woman was truly exhausted. She looked at Du Mingxian repeatedly, only to find that she hadn't made a single move. Finally, she got so angry that she simply stopped looking and thought to herself, "Let fate decide."

Miss Xu Jiutian was quite tired from eating, so she put down her food, lifted her eyelids to look at Du Mingxian, and said, "You are quite composed. Do you know why I called you here?"

"Miss, I don't know."

"You've been coming in to make me milk tea a lot lately. I've tried a few things and I'm thinking that I can make a lot of money by selling these things."

"Now I'd like to ask your opinion: is this feasible?"

Want to make milk tea?

This is property she left for herself; how could she tell the other party?

"Miss, I don't have any specific ideas, but there is something I need to tell you. Milk tea requires a lot of raw materials. How much do you plan to sell it for?"

"If we sell too little, ordinary people can still try it; if we sell too much, people won't be able to get it, and our customer traffic will drop by half, which is extremely unstable."

Miss Tian had thought about it before, "Then we'll set the price higher and only do business with those who have money. Whether others have it or not doesn't matter, it won't affect them."

Du Mingxian thought that if she asked Miss Tian to do something difficult, Miss Tian would give up. Unexpectedly, not only did Miss Tian not give up, she also wanted to take it all for herself.

Suddenly remembering something, she knelt down. "Madam, this craft is a family tradition, and we never pass it on to outsiders. If you want to open a milk tea shop, do you want me to work there and prepare the food?"

"Yes and no. If you want to go, then go. If you don't want to go, then pass on these skills to the other party. They will naturally have the skills to open a new shop. There's no need to worry too much."

Du Mingxian felt that she had been too tactful in her previous remarks, and that she had really given Miss Tian too much face. "Miss, I'm afraid I can't agree to this. Our family's traditional skills will not be passed on to outsiders unless I die."

Miss Tian's face immediately darkened. "Do you know where we are right now?"

"The Tian family."

"Who am I?"

"The favored eldest daughter of the Tian family."

"You still know that this is the Tian family home, and that I am the pampered young lady. Just because of these two things, it wouldn't be an exaggeration for me to beat you to death."

Du Mingxian looked up, her eyes filled with shock. "So, Miss, you're planning to just grab it by hand?"
