Although Yue'er became Ruyi Zhai's clerk, the guards following him were in a difficult position.

"Your Highness, how do you ask us to explain to Elder Jia like this?"

"Huh, my grandpa won't talk about me. Don't worry, I'm just doing work in this store. It's not something dangerous. You'll be fine."

Seeing the princess's smiling face, the guards looked grim and didn't know what to say.

Xiao Yi Xian, who heard from the side that this little girl was actually a princess, widened his eyes and asked in shock.

"Yue'er, are you a princess?"

"Yes, I am the little princess of the Jia Ma Empire. I also have a sister who is also a princess."

Yue'er admitted it openly, which made Xiao Yi Xian even more puzzled.

How could Jia Ma Empire's little princess come to Ruyi Zhai to work as a store clerk? This is beyond explanation.

"Okay, okay, you go back and tell my grandpa that I work as a clerk in this store, and Xiao Cheng brother will protect me."

"This..."

The leading guard wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it.

After exchanging glances with the other guards, he had no choice but to say respectful words and left Ruyi Zhai, planning to return to the Imperial Capital palace to report the matter.

"Sister Xiao Yi Xian, I have tried all these pastries, which pastry do you think is the most delicious?"

She couldn't help but smile when she saw Yue'er blinking his big bright eyes and looking at her in a flash.

"I think these pastries are quite delicious. If I say my favorite, I like Peanut Candy"

"Hey! Sister Xiao Yi Xian, I like Peanut Candy just like you, but this sweet Small Fried Dough Twist is also good."

As soon as these words were spoken, the familiar voice of Xiao Zhan sounded.

"Hey, little kid, the salty Small Fried Dough Twist is the most delicious."

Seeing a customer coming, Xiao Yi Xian said with a smile.

"Are you here to buy pastries?"

"Uh? You are?"

"I am the store manager's new clerk."

"Yue'er is also the store manager's brother's clerk"

Yue'er raised his hands and said loudly.

Seeing how interesting this little girl looked, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but smile.

"Your name is Yue'er. Just now you said the sweet Small Fried Dough Twist is the most delicious."

"Yeah, what's wrong, uncle?"

"Haha, actually the salty Small Fried Dough Twist is also good, would you like to try it?"

Seeing the smiling face of this uncle, Yue'er always felt that something was wrong with this uncle, so he said warily.

"I'm a sweet tooth, so I won't eat salty food."

"No, it's the sweet stuff that tastes bad."

"Uncle, the sweet ones are the most delicious, hum!"

Just when the two, one senior and one young, were about to quarrel, Xiao Cheng came out and said helplessly.

"Uncle Xiao, you, the head of the Xiao Clan clan, are so noisy with a child, you are not afraid of being laughed at by others."

Seeing Xiao Cheng come out of the back kitchen, Xiao Yi Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Yue'er would quarrel with this guest.

"Brother, store manager, do you think the sweet Small Fried Dough Twist tastes better or the salty Small Fried Dough Twist tastes better? You decide."

Yue'er asked Xiao Cheng with his hands on his hips like a grown-up.

This made Xiao Cheng dumbfounded. What is this? The key is that Uncle Xiao, you are staring at me without blinking. I feel very panicked.

"This... this... I think maybe the original flavor should be delicious."

Yue'er curled his lips and turned away and ignored Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Zhan's face darkened, but he didn't say anything and changed the subject.

"The store manager knows that Mittel Auction House is going to auction a mysterious item in the afternoon. Do you know what it is?"

"Don't ask me. Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you. This is a matter of principle."

Seeing Xiao Cheng's businesslike look, he had no choice but to change his approach and continue asking.

"Is it Cream Cake?"

Hearing this question, Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows a few times, but then he smiled and did not deny or admit it.

This attitude was regarded as acquiescence in Xiao Zhan's eyes, so he did not continue to ask this question again.

"Manager, why don't you go to the auction house and take a look?"

"If you don't go, it won't be interesting. It's better for me to relax in the store."

"Okay, then give me a pound of salty twists, and I'll take them to the auction house to eat."

"Okay, wait a moment"

Xiao Yi Xian went to weigh Small Fried Dough Twist and pack pastries for Xiao Zhan.

After a while, he handed a paper bag to Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan put it away, paid Gold Coins, said hello to Xiao Cheng and left the store.

"Alas, the leader of this clan has actually learned to enjoy himself."

"Brother, store manager, do you have any pastries that are more delicious than Peanut Candy?"

"Yue'er, I only have these pastries in the glass cabinet here. If I want to eat other things, I have to innovate myself, which is very troublesome."

Little Xiao Cheng spread his hands and expressed his helplessness.

In fact, I added in my mind, "It depends on the completion of the system's tasks. Only when I have the recipe can I make it."

Xiao Cheng sat on the chair where he was originally sitting and was about to rest, but Yue'er took it away and sat side by side with Xiao Yi Xian, chatting animatedly.

On the contrary, Xiao Cheng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

I found another chair and sat down comfortably to rest.

However, the housekeeper who came from Imperial Capital Mitel Family, who had not obtained any information about the mysterious item from Mittel Auction House, still felt resentful in his heart.

But this time the owner of the family asked him to come here to find out the person who provided the mysterious items to the auction house, so he did not fall out with Ya Fei.

But I was always in a bad mood, so I walked to the Xiao Clan's Fangshi and wandered around.

"There are quite a lot of people here and it's quite prosperous, alas."

He felt tired when he thought about the tasks assigned by the head of the family. He didn't expect that it would be so troublesome to find the provider of the mysterious items.

At this time, he suddenly saw the Ruyi Zhai plaque in the corner, which attracted his attention and made him very interested in this store.

And he felt a simple flavor in the three words Ruyi Zhai.

You must know that he is Three-star Great Dou Master's strength. It must be extraordinary to have a store that even Da Dou Shi is interested in.

So he walked over directly.

Xiao Cheng Hearing footsteps outside the door, he looked up and saw an old man wearing rather gorgeous clothes, but he didn't look high-profile.

"Who is this? It seems that it has never appeared in the plot I know, a supporting role?"

A big question mark appeared in his heart, but he still pretended not to know anything and sat there watching the people walking around on the street.

After my housekeeper walked in, he looked at the decoration of the store. I think it's quite unique.

"Excuse me, are you here to buy pastries?"

Xiao Yi Xian The soft voice reached the butler's ears.

As his eyes saw Xiao Yi Xian, and then Yue'er, his body froze. It was obvious that the housekeeper had seen Yue'er and knew the identity of Yue'er.

"I didn't expect that Princess Yue'er would be in this store. Does this store have any big background?"

The housekeeper began to think wildly.

At this time Yue'er said impatiently.

"Why are you so stunned? Do you want to buy cakes?"

This sentence scared the housekeeper and he laughed quickly.

"I buy it, I buy it"

Xiao Yi Xian smiled helplessly. How could she talk to a customer like this, but she didn't say anything. Judging from the look on the housekeeper's face, she must have recognized Yue'er's identity, so she simply left her alone.

And Xiao Cheng was also speechless at Yue'er's attitude. He covered his face and didn't know what to say.

"What is this pastry?"

Xiao Yi Xian briefly introduced the pastry to the housekeeper, and also asked him to look at the price on the board and the pastries that needed to be purchased.

The housekeeper glanced in the direction of the wooden board, and his eyes widened in surprise. This is really the normal price, eighty-eight Gold Coins, sixty-six Gold Coins, and this hundred Gold Coins, my God.

"What pastries do you want?"

At this time, Xiao Yi Xian's gentle voice interrupted the butler's thinking.

"I... I'll buy ten pieces of Peach Pastry, one pound of salty Small Fried Dough Twist, Peanut Candy, good Melon Seed Candy, and Sesame Candy. Just have one piece, and don't need the rest."

"Okay, wait a moment"

After a while, the butler took the wrapped pastries, paid Gold Coins, and left in a hurry.

There is a princess here, and the news must be conveyed to the master.

Xiao Cheng just sat on the chair from beginning to end, but he was wondering in his heart.

Which power does this old man belong to? Face-to-face.
