Serve No One This Life

Chapter 36 Rosebushes
Emilia gazed at the kitchen, her anger rising as she saw them whispering among themselves. They were all rallying around Angela, who was only asking for her living expenses. But for what purpose? It was all for the sake of the family.
If her daughter hadn’t married a financially struggling teacher like Donald, someone who lacked skills and money-making prowess compared to James, would their family be confined to such a modest home?
If she had even half of George’s wealth, she wouldn’t care about the money Angela held.
At least two hundred dollars out of the three hundred she earned each month should contribute to the family. As an unmarried girl, all the money she earned should be devoted to supporting the family!
After Hecate shared her thoughts, Angela obediently headed back to her room. As she passed by the dining. table, she noticed Emilia’s displeased expression but chose to ignore it and thoughtfully locked the door behind her.
After sitting down, she switched on the slightly worn lamp, pulled out her notebook, and planned to create a detailed list of the medicinal meals she needed to prepare. Considering her morning classes, which left little time for daily cooking, she aimed to establish a more reasonable schedule.
Once the list was made, she would also give a copy to Jonathan so he and Sebastian would know when she would be coming over.
Additionally, she contemplated using the money she had for a small investment. With insights into the next decade and economic trends, it seemed like a missed opportunity not to take proactive steps to earn
some extra income.
After laying out her plans, Angela spent two days hustling. Alongside her school studies, she bought raw materials for making milk tea and prepared toppings like grass jelly, pudding, and boba at the part-time milk tea shop.
The current milk tea was just instant powder, nothing fancy like in the future, at most just adding some pearls. And there was basically no fruit tea on the market, and the fruit-flavored teas were all carbonated drinks, which were nothing compared to the variety of fancy ones in the future.
As long as she got a head start, she was confident in her ability to make money.

“Angela, I must say, this pudding really adds a unique flavor to the bubble tea. It’s delicious! How did you come up with it?” Selene exclaimed as she tasted the new milk tea Angela had made..
There were quite a few milk tea shops near the school, and Selene’s small shop didn’t have much competitive edge. The daily earnings were merely average, leaving little room for savings after supporting herself and her son.
Angela smiled. “Selene, this milk tea style is quite common abroad, although it hasn’t gained popularity here yet. If we take the lead and establish our brand, money won’t be an issue.”
She had already agreed with Selene that for every cup of milk tea sold with toppings, Selene would receive 20% of the pure profit, and they had even drafted a contract. The future’s widespread popularity of milk tea assured its appeal to the majority, so she wasn’t concerned about its marketability.

With a contract in place, she had
go back on their agreement as the dence that Selene wouldn’t business expanded. After all, the latter seemed to be a person of good character.
Moreover, Angela’s money-making ideas extended beyond bubble tea, and she had a grasp of the direction of the domestic economy for the next decade or so. If Selene had any vision, she would recognize the real business opportunity. Without such foresight, growing her business would prove challenging
“Wow, Miss Kins, this is amazing!” Ron, tired of the usual milk tea flavors at home, was now enjoying Angela’s delightful fruit tea.
Angela affectionately rubbed his soft face.
“You’re a good boy, Ron. Tomorrow, I’ll make you double-layer milk pudding.”
“Double-layer milk pudding?” His eyes lit up with excitement as he gazed at her like an eager fanboy. “Miss Kins, what’s that?”
She blinked and playfully kept him in suspense. “You’ll find out tomorrow.”
Selene felt reassured once again as she observed her son getting along so well with Angela and showing genuine interest in the double-layer milk pudding. Having Angela around was turning out to be a wise decision.
With her recent experience exploring vegetable markets and various supermarkets, Angela quickly gathered all the ingredients needed for the double-layer milk pudding as soon as she left the milk tea shop.
Instead of waiting until the next day, she decided to start making it right away when she got home.
Her plan was to complete it today and store it in the Lawson Family’s double-door refrigerator.
This way, she wouldn’t be rushed to prepare the medicinal meals tomorrow, and she could also bring al portion to Jess. After getting confirmation from Sebastian that she could go to the Lawson Family’s house now, Angela finished whipping up all the double-layer milk puddings in an hour, grabbed the list of medicinal meals she had prepared, and hurried to her destination.
As she reached the entrance, she noticed an increase in potted plants compared to her last visit. While it still felt a bit empty, it looked much better.
Sebastian grinned, observing her gaze on the plants. “Master Jonathan thought the entrance was a bit too bare, so he had me move some potted plants here.”
Angela nodded, surveyed the surroundings, and said to him with a smile. “The potted plants do add a lively touch. Last time I was here, I almost thought I had walked into the wrong place.”
“What kind of plants do you like, Angela?”
