Chapter 337: Why Are You Here?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Greetings, Madam Zheng.” Under Madam Qin’s gaze, Ji Zhao hurriedly took a step forward and bowed slightly to Madam Zheng.

“And this is?”

Although she went to Spring Breeze Pavilion for the banquet that day, Ji Zhao was busy in the kitchen when Madam Zheng arrived. Coupled with the fact that she had left in a hurry, she did not see Ji Zhao.

“This is a young friend.” First Madam Qin couldn’t help but smile. “Wanrou, let’s go. We’ll talk after we enter.”

Wanrou was Madam Zheng’s maiden name.

The main entrance of the Zheng Residence was exceptionally imposing. After entering the door, they walked through a long corridor to the right and then passed through an arch of hanging flowers to the left before arriving at the reception hall of the Zheng Residence.

Madam Zheng was a refined person, so she planted many green plants in the courtyard.

The path leading to the reception pavilion was paved with brightly colored goose egg stones, and both sides were planted with emerald-green dwarf holly. Various chrysanthemum bonsais were placed in the corners of the walls on both sides of the courtyard.

In addition to some common breeds, there were also some rare and expensive breeds.

“All Tao?” Seeing that Ji Zhao had stopped, First Madam Qin turned around and called out.

“I didn’t expect there to be so many chrysanthemums planted in the residence.” Ji Zhao immediately followed and smiled at Madam Zheng. “That pot of ‘Vermillion on Snow¹ just now was very beautiful. That’s why 1 was dazed.”

“Fangrong, this girl is hiding her ability. Who exactly is she?” When she heard Ji Zhao say ‘Vermillion on Snow’, Madam Zheng looked at Ji Zhao with intense curiosity.

“Wanrou, actually, you’ve tasted Ah Tao’s cooking.” First Madam Qin smiled and kept her in suspense.

“Me?” Madam Zheng pointed at her nose in confusion. “When did I taste it?”

“Madam Zheng.” Ji Zhao smiled and explained softly, “Actually, I’m the owner of Spring Breeze Pavilion.”

“You’re the owner of Spring Breeze Pavilion?” Madam Zheng was extremely surprised. “You made that salt and pepper lamb chop?”

Madam Zheng was really surprised. After all, she really liked mutton. It was just that mutton was not easy to handle, so the mutton made by many famous chefs still had an odor.

That day at the Spring Breeze Pavilion, although she was quite angered by the Fang family, she had a deep impression of the taste of the salt and pepper lamb chop. She thought that the master chef behind the scenes was a chef from the northwest, which was why they were so good at making lamb chops. Who would have thought that the delicious food was made by this slender girl in front of her?

“Ah Tao happened to make some breakfast today.” First Madam Qin smiled and nodded at Nanny Wu. The latter immediately took a step forward and took out the breakfast from the food box in her hand. “Wanrou, try it.”

Madam Zheng couldn’t wait to pick up a warm mutton wrap. She took a small bite, and the fragrance of the mutton instantly burst out in her mouth. Coupled with the crispy wrap, the rich texture made her unable to help but be intoxicated!

“Tastes good!” Madam Zheng, who had eaten two mutton wraps in a row, smiled happily. “Miss All Tao, I didn’t expect you to have such amazing culinary skills at such a young age.”

“Madam, you flatter me.”

Coincidentally, Zheng Rongrong walked into the reception pavilion.

When she saw Ji Zhao, her eyes lit up.

“Sister Ah Tao? Why are you here?”

“Rongrong.” Ji Zhao bent over slightly and looked at Zheng Rongrong. She smiled and hugged her. “1 promised to be friends with Rongrong. How can 1 go back on my word? That’s why I came to find you. Is Rongrong happy?”

“I’m happy! I’m so happy!” Zheng Rongrong immediately nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Seeing this scene, Madam Zheng was puzzled again.

How long had it been since she saw Rongrong smile so happily?

This Miss Ji was really too amazing, right?

No, how did Miss Ji know Rongrong?

“Mother.” Zheng Rongrong held Ji Zhao’s hand and walked to Madam Zheng. She couldn’t wait to introduce her. “Sister Ah Tao is the fairy sister I told you about!”

Only then did Madam Zheng remember that after the banquet at Spring Breeze Pavilion that day, she and Rongrong had returned to the residence. In the carriage, Zheng Rongrong had mentioned that she had gotten to know a beautiful fairy sister. Moreover, the fairy sister had even praised her for having beautiful eyes. More importantly, the fairy sister was not frightened after seeing her full appearance!

“Thank you for helping Rongrong out that day, Miss Ah Tao.” After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Madam Zheng looked at Ji Zhao even more gently. “Miss Ah Tao, you might not know this, but Rongrong doesn’t have many friends. She has a low self-esteem. What you said to Rongrong that day was very heartwarming encouragement to her. Thank you very much.”

“Madam, you don’t have to thank me,” Ji Zhao said honestly. “What 1 said to Rongrong that day was from the bottom of my heart. Moreover, 1 didn’t know that Rongrong was your daughter at that time.”

Madam Zheng nodded slightly, and the smile in her eyes deepened.

This Miss Ah Tao was an extremely good person.

“Sister All Tao, let me bring you around my garden?” Zheng Rongrong grabbed Ji Zhao’s wrist without any explanation and wanted to drag her out of the door. “Mother, you can chat with Aunt Rong. 1’11 bring Sister Ah Tao around the garden!”

Ji Zhao hurriedly nodded at the two Madams and followed Zheng Rongrong out of the reception hall.

“Wanrou.” First Madam Qin faced Madam Zheng and smiled gently. Her gaze was honest as she said, “One never visits unless they need something. Actually, I came today to introduce Ah Tao to you. There’s one more thing. I think we might need your help.”

“What is it?”

“I’m afraid All Tao has some misunderstandings with the eldest young master of the residence…”

On the other side.

Ji Zhao, who was being held by Zheng Rongrong’s hand, patiently listened to her introduction. “Sister Ah Tao, come over and take a look. My mother said that this kind of chrysanthemum is called Clear Water Lotus Flower, but 1 don’t understand. This is clearly a chrysanthemum, right? Why is its name also Lotus Flower?

Ji Zhao looked at the pot of light pink lotus flowers in front of her and said with a smile, “The autumn wind is blowing fiercely, shaking the chrysanthemums in the courtyard. The fragrance of the flowers fills the air with a chilly scent, and there are hardly any butterflies left to collect nectar..”

“Sister All Tao, have you seen this kind of chrysanthemum before?” Zheng Rongrong looked at Ji Zhao with admiration.

“Yes, I’ve seen it before.” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded. She had been to the flower fair in the past, so she had seen a lot of chrysanthemums. At that time, Ji Zhao knew that chrysanthemums not only had yellow and white colors, but they also had other colors.

“Sister All Tao, you’re really amazing!” Zheng Rongrong stared fixedly at Ji Zhao. “Sister All Tao, can 1 ask you a question?”

“What?”

“Can you marry my brother?” Zheng Rongrong tugged at her sleeve and said excitedly, “1 want to become family with you. If you can marry my brother and become my sister-in-law, we’ll be a family, right?!”

“Silly Rongrong, I’m already—”

“Zhaozhao!”

Before she could say ‘married’, Ji Zhao suddenly heard a familiar voice.

She immediately looked up and saw Shen Yao smiling at her.

She immediately lifted her skirt and jogged to Shen Yao’s side. She looked up and smiled brightly.. “Why are you here?”
