Chapter 241 Shen Jiaojiao's Follow-up
"Boss, these past two days customers have been asking when our fruits will arrive. Today we finally have an explanation."
Shen Li remembered what Su Zhihui had said before, "Ayao, send someone to the Su Mansion to inform them that the grapes have arrived. Also, leave three pounds of peaches and pears for Miss Su."
"Yes."
It is always right to applaud the young lady of the prefectural government. In case something happens in the future, it is better to have acquaintances than no acquaintances.
Bai Yao immediately called a waiter from the store and asked him to go and notify everyone, while she packed the fruits in the back.
The basket that Shen Li asked for was delivered early in the morning. Now it is just the right time to pack the grapes. As for the other fruits, there is no need to use a basket.
Su Zhihui got the news, but she couldn't leave because of something else, so she ordered her personal maid to go and get it back immediately.
By the time I got there, many people were already buying fruits in the store, and these fruits were purchased first by the customers in the store. Despite this, there were still many people.
Fortunately, Lianxiang recognized the Su Mansion's carriage at once and waited for her to welcome it in.
When the little maid saw the peaches and pears, she wanted to go in and grab them, but Lianxiang stopped her, saying that she had reserved some for Miss Su.
The little girl returned with a load of fruit, "Miss!"
Su Zhihui had just been accompanying her mother to entertain guests. As soon as she returned to her own yard, she heard the little maid coming back.
"Miss, look, today we have not only grapes, but also peaches and pears."
Su Zhihui leaned over to take a look, and when she saw the big, red peaches and yellow pears, her almond-shaped eyes curved up immediately. "Send all these pears to mother's yard."
"Yes, Madam's cough has come back. These pears may help relieve it a little."
"Well, well done, reward!"
"Thank you, miss."
"Dongshuang, take these grapes down and put them away. Divide the peaches into three portions and send one to each courtyard and one to grandma."
"Yes."
Dong Shuang understood what her young lady wanted to do most right now, so she took a peach and quickly cut it into small pieces and served it.
Su Zhihui was eating the sweet peaches and was in a very good mood.
It was just noon and the several baskets of fruit that Shen Li brought back were sold out, and a lot of cakes and milk tea in the store were also bought.
The staff in the store were busy in an orderly manner. Shen Li had nothing to do here, so she simply went to the backyard to discuss pastries with Madam Jiang and Li Niang, and developed two new products.
Shen Li was in a good mood. They were very talented in cooking, especially in desserts.
In the afternoon, after packing some pastries from the store, Shen Li drove a carriage to buy a lot of vegetables, and a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits seeped out from the space.
It doesn't make sense to sell them all and not give them to your own family to eat.
My sister-in-law will be out of confinement tomorrow, and Shen Changshan plans to invite some acquaintances to hold a simple full-month banquet.
The vegetables had been bought early in the morning, and Shen Li was planning to keep them for her own family.
……
In the capital, Pei Yu was sitting in his study handling official business when Tian Qing walked in with a letter. "Master, this is the news from An Wu."
He left two people beside Shen Li, not to monitor her, but just to find out how she was doing.
Moreover, the two secret guards, having received Pei Yu's instructions, did not dare to get close to Shen Li at all. They always stayed far away, for fear of losing her every time.
Pei Yu put down the pen in his hand, took it and started reading, and the corners of his mouth that were originally raised gradually lowered.
His eyes gradually darkened. Was Lu Jing's feeling towards Ah Li gratitude? Or was it love between a man and a woman?
Fortunately, the Lu family had a lot to keep him busy, and it was not easy for him to pass the imperial examinations, so he probably didn't have that much time to see Ali.
Besides, Ali would definitely not like his type!
Although he thought so in his heart, Pei Yu was still worried. He had to deal with the things in hand as soon as possible. Although it was agreed that she would wait for him for two years, Ali did not agree explicitly.
He could imagine that when he went there happily, if he saw that Ali was already married, he thought he would go crazy.
……
Zhennan Palace
"Prince, Princess, Prince, the Third Young Master is back!"
Sitting at the top were the solemn-looking prince and the graceful princess, and to their left sat the calm-looking Prince Xie Yunci of Zhennan.
Upon hearing this, the King of Zhennan snorted coldly, "Come back, I think he has spent all his money."
Princess Zhennan's eyes were red, and she glanced at her husband who was sitting next to her with anger, "Che'er has taken so long to come back, if you make him angry and leave again, I won't allow it."
Upon hearing this, a trace of helplessness flashed across the face of the Prince of Zhennan, "Madam, that rebellious son will die if we don't take care of him anymore."
"That's not how the prince manages it!"
Seeing that his wife was about to get angry again, he compromised, "Okay, I promise Madam, as long as he doesn't do those stupid things again."
Prince Xie Yunci, who was standing aside, also had a helpless look on his face. He had long been accustomed to the way his parents spoke.
Xie Yunche ran away in anger this time and stayed outside for several months before returning.
Shen Jiaojiao on the side had a very excited look on her face. She had followed Xie Yunche along the way and had seen a lot of prosperity, but after arriving in the capital, she couldn't hide her inner excitement.
There were two blushes on her face. She was wearing a pink dress today. The material was of high quality. It was something she had never touched before.
After seeing all this, she gradually developed an ambition in her heart.
She wanted to stay rich forever.
"Jiaojiao, what are you thinking about?"
Shen Jiaojiao was kept by Xie Yunche's side. She was a servant, but she did not sell herself into slavery. She was even less of a concubine, but there were often some ambiguous actions between her and Xie Yunche.
Because of saving his life, Xie Yunche treated Shen Jiaojiao pretty well. The most important thing was that Shen Jiaojiao knew the times and knew how to advance and retreat.
Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head slightly, revealing her slender neck, and said with envy, "Master, Jiaojiao has never seen any luxurious mansion."
"Hahaha, what did I do to deserve your happiness?"
"Come on, I'll show you around."
"it is good."
The corners of Shen Jiaojiao's lips twitched slightly, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes. As expected, this little master is really easy to coax!
However, Shen Jiaojiao followed behind him and looked at the luxurious Prince Zhennan's Mansion with a hint of worry in her eyes. She didn't know whether the masters in this mansion were easy to get along with.
However, considering that he had saved Xie Yunche's life, his treatment would not be too bad no matter what.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaojiao recalled the things Xie Yunche had given away to her second brother and sister-in-law. There was a hidden sense of pride in her eyes. They would never be able to benefit from his kindness again.
