In the marital home, Ye Ximeng was also handling the day’s accumulated work.
Luo Yuanyuan had already registered the company today.
Ye Ximeng uploaded the business license and various qualifications to the credentials section of the online store.
Instantly, the previously ordinary online store seemed to become more upscale and professional.
Next, she dealt with customer inquiries for the online store.
In the past, this small online shop might not have a single customer for one or two months.
But times had changed.
It seemed that Abbot Du’e had recommended her small incense shop to many temple abbots.
Then word spread from one to ten, from ten to a hundred…
Her unread messages brightly displayed over thirty consultation messages waiting to be processed.
Ye Ximeng went through them one by one, replying to each.
In less than an hour, she secured three custom Buddhist incense orders.
One of the orders was slightly special.
It was from Falling Moon Temple in He City, wanting to customize a Buddhist incense with the temple’s characteristics for the Incense Appreciation Festival, to be sampled and evaluated by devotees from various places.
He City was a major city known for spice production.
The abbot of Falling Moon Temple also seemed interested in inviting Ye Ximeng to the temple to discuss the custom incense details in person.
Since it involved a business trip, Ye Ximeng didn’t agree immediately.
But with other Buddhist incense orders as a foundation, her newly opened incense-making company could be considered off to a good start.
…
Ye Ximeng slept soundly through the night.
The next day, she woke up on time following her biological clock.
After washing up, she went downstairs.
As expected, Jiang Yufeng was already sitting cross-legged in his usual spot in the living room, starting his morning prayers.
They exchanged good mornings, then occupied their respective spaces without disturbing each other.
Jiang Yufeng continued reciting scriptures for his morning prayers, while Ye Ximeng practiced Tai Chi to the rhythm of his recitations.
As if forming a tacit understanding.
Wen Tonghua immediately grinned from ear to ear, repeatedly remarking how different her son was after marriage compared to before.
Ye Ximeng shifted her phone sideways to bring Jiang Yufeng into view.
Seeing Jiang Yufeng’s stiff expression, she couldn’t resist lightly nudging his foot with her toe.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yufeng didn’t catch her hint, his expression remaining unchanged.
Ye Ximeng had to continue chatting casually with Mother Ye.
Wen Tonghua was also talkative, and after two or three minutes of conversation, Ye Ximeng finally broached the main topic, mentioning Jiang Yufeng’s upcoming week-long business trip.
On the other end, Wen Tonghua sighed and began criticizing her son: “Yufeng, you have such a large family company and refuse to work there, insisting on teaching at a school instead.
Teaching is fine, but now, newly married, you’re off on a business trip for a week…”
Jiang Yufeng, likely accustomed to such reproaches, listened quietly without retorting.
Even his expression remained consistent, giving the impression he was attentively receiving the admonishment.
It was somewhat amusing.
When Mother Jiang tired of criticizing and paused for breath, Ye Ximeng quickly interjected: “Mom, Yufeng treats me very well, attentive and caring.
Do you know, just earlier he told me that after his trip, he’ll bring gifts for both you and me.”
With that one sentence, Mother Jiang on the other end was instantly cheered up.
“That’s wonderful. When you return from your trip, come to the old house for dinner, and I’ll prepare gifts for you too.”
After hanging up, Ye Ximeng felt pleased.
Jiang Yufeng hardly spoke throughout, but visibly, his brows and eyes were relaxed, clearly indicating his mood wasn’t bad.
“Thank you,” Jiang Yufeng suddenly said.
He was usually reserved, and rarely saw Wen Tonghua laugh so heartily when interacting with her.
But Ye Ximeng seemed to have the knack, able to delight Wen Tonghua with just a few words.
During that call, though he spoke little, he greatly enjoyed the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere.
“No need for thanks. Yesterday, you performed excellently at my home too. We’re reciprocating,” Ye Ximeng said with a curved smile.
Jiang Yufeng didn’t say more, nodding to Ye Ximeng before pulling his suitcase and leaving.
Ye Ximeng watched Jiang Yufeng depart, ensuring he was well away, then immediately called Abbot Du’e.
From Abbot Du’e, she learned information about Falling Moon Temple.
A temple in He City with considerable incense offerings, Abbot Du’e had a good relationship with Falling Moon Temple’s Abbot Qingxuan.
Upon hearing that Falling Moon Temple intended to invite Ye Ximeng to custom-make Buddhist Incense, Abbot Du’e promptly called Abbot Qingxuan.
Shortly afterward, he called back to Ye Ximeng, assuring her she could confidently go, as Abbot Qingxuan sincerely sought the incense and had already arranged for her reception.
Immediately, Ye Ximeng had no further worries.
With a call, she summoned Luo Yuanyuan to join her, heading toward He City’s Falling Moon Temple.
Jiang Yufeng, she was coming!
