The daughter of a noble family is reborn, and she is doted on by her godmother.

Chapter 36 Refreshments

“Since you’re going to investigate the evidence here, especially the things that might not be water, you can do what I did and find a handkerchief to keep them safe. Then you can also go to the county government to ask around.”

Yun Yuke, a passerby, raised her phone to the crowd and said, "I feel like something's not right with this. I'll take some back and try to find out more."

Having worked together before, the constables were used to Boss Yun's behavior at this moment.

The investigation here is basically complete. All the details have been investigated, and the county government office has preserved the evidence, including whether it was a fallen beam or bloodstains on the ground.

"The bizarre murder case is almost solved. Let's go back to the city and ask around at the shops."

While speaking, Magistrate Sun made arrangements for the situation, instructing the head constable in charge to return to the city to continue the investigation, while he himself led a small group of people to Huanghua Village to inspect the villagers' conditions again.

"Everything has piled up at once."

Yun Yuke naturally took Yun Qingjin back with her, but in front of everyone, the two couldn't discuss anything along the way.

Upon arriving at the Yun residence, before the two could even dismount, the people from the Yun residence rushed over with smiles on their faces.

"Boss Yu Ke, Manager Ruihe has returned from his trip and specifically instructed us to go see him when you get back," Aunt Hua said before Yun Yu Ke could even catch her breath.

"Oh? This brat, it's been almost a year! He still knows to come back. Perfect, I'll take Qingqing to see her uncle."

Yun Yuke helped Yun Qingjin off the horse and asked Aunt Hua and the others to lead the horse back.

"I've prepared a welcome banquet, boss. Don't forget to invite everyone from over there. I've had Haidong specially prepare the feast; it's all ready," Aunt Hua specifically instructed Yun Yuke on this matter.

"Huh? The restaurant can actually host a banquet? Do they have enough food and vegetables in their reserves?"

Aunt Hua nodded. "Hai Dong said that their manager had prepared in advance. The villages where their restaurant orders vegetables are recovering well. The vegetables were delivered as soon as the rain stopped, so the supply is still manageable."

Yun Yuke understood, "Then remember to give them a little extra when you pay the bill. It's not easy for them to run a business, so don't let Manager Hao refuse our kindness again."

"Don't worry, I know your plan. I'll have Haidong take the money back to keep accounts. Don't worry, if this kid dares not to pay, I'll beat him up."

Aunt Hua had everything arranged.

Yun Yuke squatted down and looked Yun Qingjin straight in the eye. "Qingqing, you're not hungry yet, right? Mother will take you to see Mother's younger brother. According to the relationship, you should call him Uncle. Your uncle went out to do business a few days ago, but he suddenly came back today. Mother will take you to meet him."

Yun Qingjin nodded. She had heard of her mother's brother before, but had never met him, so she was quite curious about him.

“Come on, your uncle runs a warehouse, not far from here.”

Upon hearing the name, Yun Qingjin felt as if she vaguely remembered it. "Mother, is Uncle's shop the one on the street corner with lots of horses? I saw on the signboard over there that the second character looks like '和' (hé), which is the '禾' (hé) of 'grain seedling' with a '口' (kǒu) radical. I don't recognize the first character; I see it has '王' (wáng) on ​​one side, but I don't know what it means when put together."

That's the truth. When Yun Qingjin passed by that place before, she saw the sign. She didn't recognize three of the four characters, only one of them.

Yun Qingjin nodded. "Yes, that's your uncle's warehouse. The first character is 'Rui,' which is the name of your uncle that I just mentioned, Ruihe. The last two characters are 'warehouse,' which is a place that specializes in buying and sourcing goods for various shops."

The two held hands and soon arrived at the entrance of the warehouse.

The people inside were still busy moving and sorting the goods that had been transported from outside. Of course, several merchants who had previously placed orders had also come to pick up their goods.

"Looks like they're quite busy. Let's wait a bit." Yun Yuke went straight to the teahouse next door and ordered tea and snacks as if she knew her way around.

"Qingqing, come here. I haven't taken you to try the tea and snacks here yet. Try them and see if you like them?"

Yun Yuke didn't even look at the menu, and told the waiter a few names, "As usual, prepare both small and large portions."

Before long, the waiter quickly brought over several plates of delicate and small pastries.

Yun Yuke pushed the six plates of pastries she had just ordered in front of Yun Qingjin. "These six are all things that Mother likes. I don't know which one you like. You can try them. If you don't like any of them, we can order more."

"Huh? So much?" Yun Qingjin was very surprised. "Mother, didn't we order too much? Qingqing likes everything."

Although she had seen Yun Yuke's generous nature many times, Yun Qingjin was still a little unaccustomed to it. After all, she had never experienced such a bold and extravagant spending spree before, and she was still somewhat unsettled.

“Honey, try it first. Don’t worry, Mommy ordered so much not because I’m wasting food. Your uncle and the rest of our family all love to eat. You’re a member of the family too, so Mommy needs to know what you like to eat.”

Yun Yuke could always picture the child covered in wounds, so whenever it was time to feed the child, she would always try to stuff the child with extra delicious food.

"However, we shouldn't eat too many of these snacks, because there's a banquet for your Aunt Hua tonight. If we don't eat properly, she'll get angry again."

The little girl nodded and looked at the six plates of pastries laid out in front of her.

The little girl looked left and right, hesitated for a long time, and then picked the plate of osmanthus cakes from the far left.

The white pastry is adorned with golden osmanthus blossoms. Its delicate fragrance carries a subtle osmanthus scent.

Yun Qingjin picked up a small piece and took a small bite.

The aroma of osmanthus blossoms slowly unfolds on the tongue, and the soft, glutinous rice cake melts in your mouth.

The aroma of the green tea that had just been served lingered on my nose. Surprisingly, the osmanthus cake didn't seem overly sweet.

"this is delicious!"

Yun Yuke had already poured a cup of Biluochun tea. "Don't rush, have a sip of tea, then we'll have the next one."

The mother and daughter enjoyed tea and snacks together.

Although she had tried some pastries in the capital in her previous life, most of them were too sweet and cloying. In addition, she never had the chance to calm down and savor them. Therefore, Yun Qingjin liked almost every kind of pastry.

"What should I do, Mother? I like them all, I want to eat them all! But I can't, I have to leave some for others..."

"It's alright, just give them some more." Yun Yuke was holding a piece of mung bean cake in her hand, speaking indistinctly, encouraging the child to try again.

With her mouth full of snot, it was difficult to speak, so Yun Yuke poured herself another cup of tea. Finally able to speak normally, she continued with her instructions.

"We can try the other pastries, but let's not eat the eight-treasure rice for now. I specially asked the shop to make a small portion of the whole thing. We'll take the rest home as a bonus for today's feast."

"Why?" Yun Qingjin asked curiously, not expecting Yun Yuke to be so well-prepared, even having large and small portions.

"Silly child, this eight-treasure rice is made with glutinous rice. If you've eaten it all, you'll be full. Will you even have room for dinner tonight?"

"Sis, it's fine if you don't come to help me, but why are you here eating snacks?"

A slightly angry male voice came from behind. Yun Qingjin turned around and saw a tall man behind her who looked somewhat similar to Yun Yuke.

"Huh? Who is this child?"
