The Marquis' Wife

Preparation to open a shop

Adelia was still sculpting, she could not help but feel what Lu Xiang had just done to her and blinked and her face flushed even more considering the hard object she felt on her butt, he crouched down and hid his face that was red because he was unable to endure the shame.

A while later Lu Xiang returned to the room and saw Adelia who was already lying on the bed facing the wall. When he got up to the spot and realized his wife's tense body and smiled, he hugged her from behind and laughed subtly at Adelia's ears. "You haven't slept my wife?"

Adelia's body trembled at the sexy low baritone voice and the warm breath in her ears, unable to bear it she covered her head with a blanket and hid and it made Lu Xiang's smile even more fluffy.

But the man no longer teased her and just hugged her, pecked her head under the blanket and said "Good night my wife".

Adelia's face reddened under the blanket, she waited until she heard a faint sigh before pulling herself out of the blanket and looking at her husband's sleeping face and breathing a sigh of relief, he carefully approached and slept leaning his head against Lu Xiang's chest. "Good night my husband".

This was the first time Adelia had slept in Lu Xiang's arms, she thought that she would definitely not be able to sleep yet somehow because of the sense of security and comfort she felt, she said, it didn't take long for him to step into dreamland and unbeknownst to him Lu Xiang opened his invisible eyes to fall asleep at all.

Lu Xiang looked at his wife's innocent and pretty face then hugged her tightly.

"You're moving into a store not far from here?" Manager Xu was surprised.

Adelia nodded. "So Uncle Xu can take the tamarind oval fruit there, maybe soon I will open a cake shop".

Uncle Xu nodded. "Do you want to open a shop like a restaurant?". He asked so not afraid of losing competitiveness but because he was worried that Adelia would no longer supply chocolate to his restaurant. He has promised to send another chocolate stock to the capital after hearing the good news that chocolate is selling well there.

Adelia shakes. "I just opened a cake shop to take home, the cake shop I opened wasn't big".

"Goodly so. I heard that Lu Xiang is starting to re-learn? Is that why you moved to town?"

Adelia smiled happily. "Yes uncle Xu. We have no relatives so it will be difficult for Lu Xiang to leave me and his sister in the village".

"When are you going to open a cake shop? You don't have to worry about the guy who's bothering your cake shop"

Adelia's eyes were round and shining, and she got up and bowed respectfully to Uncle Xu. "Thank you for Uncle Xu's help. Adelia and Lu Xiang will be more calm opening a cake shop, if Uncle Xu needs our help please do not hesitate in saying it". With Uncle Xu's guarantee then he didn't have to worry if people interrupted his business. How could he not be happy?.

Uncle Xu stroked his still-black beard nodding in satisfaction, perhaps one day he would really need Lu Xiang's help because of the bright future that the young man had. "By the way, your chocolate is in high demand in the capital and they are asking for more supplies. Can you make it?"

Adelia nodded in spirit. "As long as the main ingredient is there, I will be able to make it uncle Xu".

"Good good good. I want 20 containers, for tamarind oblong fruit, I'll send it to your house in two days. How long can you make it?" Uncle Xu was also happy because after this order was sent to the capital then he would get a bonus directly from the capital.

"The process of making chocolate took about two weeks of Uncle Xu"

"alright. Let me know when you're done making it".

Adelia came out of the Fuyuan restaurant with light steps, she went to the market to buy two kilograms of fish and vegetables and mushrooms. This afternoon will cook fish soup and chicken krispi and sauteed oyster sauce.

"Are you hungry?" Adelia stroked Lu Shan and Lu Cheng's hair but the 5-year-old was evasive.

Lu Shan rubbed his stomach and nodded. Last night he dreamed of sleeping with a mountain of nuggets floating in his eyes making his saliva come out and make a new island in his pillow. It made Lu Cheng stare in disdain at him yet he did not care.

"Are we going to eat nuggets?"

Adelia shakes. Lu Shan's enthusiasm was extinguished like being doused in cold water but a few seconds later re-ignited to hear his brother-in-law's answer.

"We're gonna eat chicken"

"Chrispy chicken? Is chicken better than nuggets?"

Adelia smiled mysteriously. "of course".

Lu Shan licked his lips and swallowed the saliva that started reminiscing in his mouth then nodded enthusiastically.

"I have a snack for you. For now eat this before lunch is ready". Adelia went into the kitchen putting down her groceries then took two bowls and filled them with barbeque-flavored potato chips before giving them to her sisters.

"Is this brother?" Lu Shan stared enthusiastically at the bowl in Adelia's hand.

"It's a snack of potato chips. Try it, you'll love it".

Lu Shan's smile froze then sighed in disappointment. Potatoes are not sweet, he prefers soybean than potatoes but when potato chips enter his mouth. His eyes were enlarged because his tongue was smashed with salty, slightly sweet and many other flavors that he could not describe.

Lu Cheng looked at his sister who was eating potato chips vigorously. He himself also does not like potatoes that have a flat taste but saw his brother he ate the chips and reacted the same with Lu Shan.

"It's delicious brother!!" Say both simultaneously.

"Haha. Don't forget to wash your hands after eating". Adelia was satisfied with the reaction of the two and returned to the kitchen preparing lunch.

Lu Xiang sighed in relief and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief. From the morning he was busy preparing everything for the opening of the cake shop, he went to the woodworker to order the chairs, tables and billboards of the shop that he would paint himself.

It was Adelia who wanted to prepare everything for the opening of the cake shop but Lu Xiang forbade her for fear that a stranger would disturb his wife. In the Murong dynasty the status of women was so low that they were freely traded among the upper class to become concubines and concubines, and mistresses, therefore, women who themselves often get harassed if not accompanied by family or husband so Lu Xiang is the one who carries out all the tasks.

He didn't just order that. Adelia also handed him an image she called a display case, a shelf half made of glass with a classic and elegant look. A sales rack he had never seen before.
