Chapter 378: Butter Cake

Gu Jinlin looked at his mother with cold eyes. “They want us to send Yao Yao to them, send gifts as an apology and bow down to them. They also want us to let them handle Mo Beihan. Mother, what do you think we should do?”

Zhou Ping was stunned.

Her cheeks twitched. “But… you can’t lose your job just like that? You achieved these results with much difficulty. What will happen in the future if you lose your job? You have been doing well all this while. Why did it end up like this? What a misfortune!”

Zhou Ping sat back in the chair furiously.

The anger within Gu Jinlin was riled instantly. “If you did not hurt your leg, there indeed wouldn’t be so many troubles.”

Zhou Ping looked at her son in disbelief. “What did you say?”

She hollered.

Gu Jinlin remained silent.

Zhou Ping’s chest rose and fell heavily due to her anger. “You mean that I caused all this trouble? You’re blaming me, aren’t you? I called Gu Yunshuang to come then. Your young aunt is no longer young already. Would such matters happen if she came?”

Gu Jinlin retorted, “Young Aunt needs to labour at home to earn work points to raise herself and her daughter. If she comes to serve you, would you give her a year’s worth of living expenses including her daughter’s?”

Zhou Ping froze.

The village life was about earning work points from labor and the period with the most labor available was spring ploughing and autumn harvest. Gu Yunshuang was living in her maiden home with her daughter and no matter how nice her family treated her, it was inevitable for her to have pressure; She definitely wanted to work to raise herself and her daughter.

An outsider was still in their house and Gu Jinlin did not wish to argue with or embarrass his mother either. Thus, he said, “Father and I are aware of this matter so don’t worry anymore. Mother, I’m exhausted and I’ve not eaten lunch! Make something for me to eat!”

Zhou Ping did not go along with her son’s opening for her to get out of the embarrassing situation and instead shot him a look. “There’s nothing to eat at home anymore.”

Then, she sunk back into the seat as she folded her arms around her chest and pulled a long face.

“Mother…”

“Brother! If you’re hungry, I still have some food with me. You can eat it to fill your stomach first.”

Gu Jinlin was about to speak but was interrupted by Gu Qingyao.

Gu Jinlin was quiet as he looked at her. Then, he nodded and said, “All right then, pass some to me. I’m about to die from starvation!”

Gu Qingyao went into her room and took out some cakes from her interspace. There were some butter cakes and even a few pieces of steamed cakes and green bean pastries.

Ji Mingyue was bewildered when the cakes were brought out.

“Yao… Yao Yao, where did you buy these from?”

These were all good food!

Such food was really pricey and not necessarily in stock to be purchased.

Gu Qingyao casually replied, “I bought some when I went to the department store previously and some of them were made by me. I originally intended to reward Little Seven and Eight for completing their homework. Third Brother, eat these first to fill your tummy since you’re hungry. I’ll go and cook for you.”

Gu Qingyao placed the cakes on the table. “Little Seven, Little Eight, come and try if you like it. Mingyue, you too.”

Ji Mingyue was a little shy to do so.

Gu Qingyao chuckled. “Try them. I made these myself. Just don’t forget about me if you have any goodies next time.”

“Sure, sure! I promise to give you.”

Grinning, Ji Mingyue pinched a piece of steamed cake and placed it into her mouth. The soft texture was fantastic.

The butter cake which Gu Qingyao told her to taste had fruits in it and the texture was even better.

Embarrassed to eat anymore, Ji Mingyue only tried two bites of the butter cake and gave the rest to the two kids. She stopped eating after tasting another two pieces of green bean pastries.

On the other hand, the two kids were extremely excited.

Cakes!

A box of cakes cost a few dollars in the department store!
