Zhou Ying opened the account books and saw that the total was 1.8 million taels.

The restaurant and manor in the capital amounted to 1.2 million taels, while Qinshui Town’s restaurant and workshop totaled 600,000 taels of silver.

She asked offhandedly, “Does it mean that we earned less in the capital compared to last year?”

“Yes, there’s a drop in business in the restaurant here.

“If we hadn’t come out with the new dish before the new year, Buddha Jump Over the Wall soup, I’m afraid the revenue would’ve been lower.”

“Does it mean that the customers are getting tired of the current dishes we’re offering?”

Niu Fugui didn’t reply, but his meaning was clear.

Zhou Ying paused momentarily before adding, “Alright, why don’t you call over the chefs here for the next two days so I can teach them two new dishes?”

“That would be great! With new dishes, our restaurant will be booming with business in no time.”

“I hope so. Remember to be more careful in managing the restaurant so that there are no problems.”

“This lowly one understands.”

“Alright, go on ahead. The bonus will be the same as last year, but remember to add Gu Zheng to the list; his bonus is 1,000 tales of silver.”

“I understand.”

After he left, Zhou Ying re-calculated the accounts and checked that there was no error before preparing the red packets for everyone’s bonuses.

Night came, and everyone ate a scrumptious banquet. Everyone had the same dishes, but the only difference was that the main table had eight dishes while the rest had six.

They sent off Second Uncle Gu and his family on the second day of the new year.

Gu Chengrui wanted to speak to Zhou Ying about something, but then he saw Guoguo in Zhou Ying’s arms. He suddenly recalled the many times that Guoguo ruined his “good times” with Zhou Ying during the night.

He went ahead and took Guoguo in his arms and asked, “Guoguo, how old are you after the new year?”

Guoguo chuckled and replied, “Guoguo is four years old!”

“That’s great! Shouldn’t you sleep independently now that you aren’t three years old anymore?”

“What is independent?”

“Well, you will be sleeping alone in another room. If you’re scared, you can try it out by sleeping with Mrs. Lin.”

“No! I want to sleep with mommy!” Guoguo struggled and wanted to get out of Gu Chengrui’s arms.

But her efforts were unsuccessful, so she could only look pleadingly at Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying recalled the times that Guoguo had woken up in her interspace and decided it was also time for her independence.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome when the day arrived when Guoguo realized that Zhou Ying’s interspace was no longer a dream.

“Come on, put Guoguo down.” Zhou Ying went ahead and took Guoguo from Gu Chengrui’s arms. “Guoguo, didn’t you envy Uncle Chenglin sleeping alone just a few days ago? Why are you afraid of sleeping alone now?”

“No! I want mommy!” Guoguo hugged Zhou Ying’s neck tightly and huffed.

“Relax, before you strangle Mommy.” Zhou Ying patted her back and waited for Guoguo to relax her arms. “Mommy misses Guoguo too.

“But when the Eldest Princess laughs at you for sleeping with mommy when you’re so old, don’t come crying to me.”

“No. Nannan won’t laugh at Guoguo; she loves me!” Guoguo said it firmly.

“Who knows? Don’t you know that Yangyang is also sleeping with his nanny?” Gu Chengrui added.

“Ah, Zhuangzhuang too. He’s also sleeping with his nanny.”

“Remember your two older brothers from your uncle’s side? They are sleeping on their own now.”

Guoguo rolled her eyes at Gu Chengrui. She didn’t want to sleep alone, so she crawled into Zhou Ying’s arms and gave Gu Chengrui the side eye.

Gu Chengrui wanted to persuade her further, but Zhou Ying shook her head.

This was because she noticed that Guoguo wasn’t as adamant about this proposal as at the start.

This matter must be taken slowly, or it might hurt Guoguo’s feelings.

Gui Chengrui saw that and said, “Daddy is sorry; ok, Daddy won’t ask Guoguo to sleep alone again.

“Oh, right! There’s a cute pony in the backyard; do you want to take a look?”
