Chapter 114: Fruits Sent by Master Zhang

However, not long after the door opened, the hall was already full of diners.

After the heavy rain, the sun rose and the temperature gradually rose.

Wen Zhenyi also moved a few basins of ice and placed them in the corner of the hall so that everyone could feel cooler.

"It's such a pleasure to have breakfast in your restaurant. It feels so cool as soon as I walk in."

Wen Zhenyi smiled and said, "The weather is hot, so I wanted to make the food more comfortable for everyone."

"Miss Wen, do you still have herbal tea for sale today?"

"have."

"I have to come buy some at noon, otherwise I'll get dizzy from the sun at the dock."

"Okay, just come over at noon and I'll prepare it for you."

"Miss Wen, Miss Wen, our master asked me to deliver something to you." Butler Cheng is very active in coming to her shop now.

As soon as Wen Zhen saw Butler Cheng, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Butler, you haven't been here for a while."

"I'm busy, but I've asked the servant to help buy breakfast." Butler Cheng said with a smile.

"Has the butler had breakfast?"

"No."

"Send someone to the backyard, and I'll open the door for you."

"Okay." Butler Cheng said and went out, asking people to go to the alley behind.

Wen Zhenyi said something to Ma Yinghe and went to the backyard to open the gate.

Butler Cheng directed the servants to place baskets of fruit in the backyard: "Miss Wen, these are all sent to you by the master."

Wen Zhenyi looked at the baskets on the ground. Each basket was filled with fruits, including lychees, bayberries, passion fruits, lemons, etc. There were quite a few varieties.

"Your master's orchard has a lot of fruit."

"There are some fruits that ripen in the master's orchard every season, but the most are in summer and autumn. Do you think you can use all of these? Our master also said that if you need anything, just ask."

Wen Zhenyi looked at the butler: "What else did he say?"

"Make something delicious and tell you to remember to invite him to try it."

Wen Zhenyi smiled and shook his head: "Sit down for a while, I'll get you some food."

"Thank you, Miss Wen." The butler found a place to sit in the backyard.

Wen Zhenyi went to get each of them two pieces of hand-pulled pancakes with eggs.

The butler's hands were greasy from eating. "This cake is delicious."

"I'll be selling herbal tea here this afternoon. If your master is free, ask him to come over and try it."

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely pass on the message. How much is today's breakfast?" The butler pointed to the servant who came with him.

"No, I'll deduct it from the fruit money when the time comes."

The butler was a little stunned. It seemed that the master didn't ask for money for the fruit!

Wen Zhenyi ignored the housekeeper and started thinking about what to do with the fruits.

There was still a lot of honey left from the big jar that Cheng Lesheng had sent her before, and she brought it all to the store.

Seeing lemon now reminds her of lemon honey.

Bayberries cannot be preserved and are no longer edible after the season is over, but they can be canned, and the same can be said for lychees.

As for the others, they are essential summer drinks, and she was salivating just thinking about it.

In the hot summer, just thinking about having a glass of iced lemon honey water, passion fruit drink, or mango smoothie makes me drool.

When Wen Zhen came back to his senses, he didn't even notice when Butler Cheng left.

She is going to prepare some things now because there are not enough jars at home. She also plans to pickle some vegetables, such as cowpeas, kimchi, pickled peppers, etc.

These things have not been found here yet, so she has to come here by herself.

When Wen Chengwen came back, he saw the backyard full of fruits: "Yi Yi, where did all these fruits come from?"

"Master Cheng sent it."

"That's going to cost a lot of money, right?"

"It's okay, this should make a lot of money."

"Can I make money?" Wen Chengwen thought about the price of fruits and felt that it would be difficult to make money.

Wen Zhenyi put the fruit matter aside and went to the store to help with breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, the three of them returned to the backyard and began to think about how to deal with the fruit.

Ma Yinghe looked at the various fruits in the yard and asked, "Yi Yi, what should we do with these fruits?"

"Some we use for afternoon herbal tea, and some we can for preserving."

"What's a can?"

"It's something that can preserve fruit for a long time, but I don't know if it will work, so I can only try."

"Okay, what do you need us to do?"

"Dad, I might need a lot of pickling jars or vats in the future."

"That's easy. They sell it at the grocery store. I'll go buy it later."

"Is Boss Wen here?" A man's voice came from outside.

"Yes, wait a moment." Wen Chengwen said as he stood up and went to the hall: "I'm here to deliver a plaque."

Wen Zhenyi and Ma Yinghe also followed him out and saw two people standing at the door. There was also an ox cart next to them with a ladder and a plaque on it.

Wen Chengwen saw the two of them and said with a smile, "Thank you for making the trip."

"This is what we should do." He pointed to the plaque on the oxcart and said, "Shall we hang it up for you now?"

Wen Zhenyi took a look at the plaque on the ox cart. The workmanship was really excellent. No wonder Shen Hanxing said that their plaque was well made.

Wen Chengwen looked at her: "Yi Yi, do you want to hang up now?"

"Hang up."

"Miss Wen, don't you want to check the date?"

"No need, it's better to do it today than to wait for a day."

"Hahaha! Then we'll hang it up for you."

Wen Zhenyi and his family of three made room at the door to allow the two waiters to hang up the plaque.

"Boss Wen, can you see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted?"

Wen Chengwen looked left and right, and saw that the plaques were all hung very neatly: "No, they are already very neat."

"Then I'll go down."

"Okay, okay."

Ma Yinghe went to the kitchen and brought out some ice water: "Thank you for your hard work. There is only ice water in the store now. Have a drink to quench your thirst."

The two waiters were happy as they drank the cold water. They had heard that the Wen family had ice, and now they saw that it was true.

Ma Yinghe also gave each of the two servants some silver and money to cheer them up.

The two waiters couldn't refuse, so they took it with a smile.

Wen Zhenyi looked at the words on the plaque and realized that it looked like a shop.

"Dad, write a letter to grandpa and the others to see if they are free to come."

"Okay, I'll write it now and have someone send it to you when I'm done." Wen Chengwen said and went back to his room to write the letter.

After Wen Zhenyi and Ma Yinghe finished washing the dishes, they began to prepare lunch. As for the fruit, they could only deal with it in the afternoon.

After dinner, the two Wen brothers had classes in the afternoon and had to go back to the private school.

However, Shen Xiucai and Shen Hanxing had nothing to do in the afternoon, so they stayed to help wash the fruit.

Shen Xiucai pointed at the lemon and said, "Why did this guy bring this sour thing to you?"
