Chapter 203: Deception_1
The carriage drove directly into the backyard of the shop.
Xiaojie hopped off the carriage and hurried over to pet Xiaohei.
Ever since Xiaohei had arrived in the county, his freedom had been severely limited by being tied to a post in the backyard. He was almost falling into depression. Seeing his little master now, he barked excitedly.
"Xiaojie!"
Yingbao came out from the kitchen and waved at him, "Come and have some chestnut cake."
They had just made a pot of it in the morning. It was still warm, crispy, and delicious.
Jiang Jie ran into the kitchen to find his cousin Yingbao packaging chestnut cakes. She was placing the packed chestnut cakes, one by one, into a flat-bottomed iron pot on the stove.
Off to the side, there was a bamboo tray of freshly baked chestnut cakes that were giving off a rich aroma.
Jiang Jie took a piece and bit into it.
It was really delicious, much better than the chestnut cake from his teacher's house.
