Before Li Youran and Jiang Qianqian arrived, Feng Lei had already explained the whole story to the Emperor's brother-in-law and his wife, and made a firm decision to resolve the matter. However, his family did not completely believe him.

Li Youran's words made the Imperial Uncle change his mind.

Feng Lei left without looking back. As he passed Li Youran, he cupped his hands in thanks before quickly departing.

"You Ran, can Feng Lei really quell this matter?"

On the way back, Jiang Qianqian was no longer as anxious as she had been on the way there, and she began to calm down.

She knew very well that even though Feng Lei had stepped in to resolve the matter, could he really salvage Zhou Caidie's reputation as they had hoped?

"I believe Feng Lei will do his best to salvage Cai Die's reputation, but it will be difficult to pretend that nothing happened."

As Li Youran spoke, she used a towel that Xiao Hong had rinsed with cold water to wipe her fair swan-like penis, and continued speaking.

"But in any case, this matter may not be as bad as Feng Lei and Zhou Caidie imagine. It might even accelerate their development."

Jiang Qianqian glanced at Li Youran, who had been calmly analyzing the situation from beginning to end, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly."

Li Youran is incredibly accurate when dealing with other people's relationship problems, but she is completely clueless when it comes to her own.

Jiang Qianqian shook her head helplessly at this thought.

Li Youran noticed that the Second Prince had been much busier than usual these days, and he would return to the mansion late at night every time.

However, she hadn't heard the Second Prince or his wife mention these things, so she didn't take it to heart. She guessed that perhaps it was because the Crown Prince's ceremony was approaching, and they had more and more things to do.

These days, all the affairs managed by Li Youran have been on track, so there is nothing urgent at hand.

Since she had so much free time, Li Youran put the hot pot restaurant business on her agenda.

Unlike when I first came to the capital, back then it was very difficult to rent a shop, and you even had to use the Yun family's name.

But things are different now. Li Youran is of noble status. Although he doesn't have a lot of money, he's not short of a few taels. So he simply waved his hand and bought a shop with six storefronts on the busiest street.

Although it is not as large as a grand restaurant, it is still much larger than an ordinary shop.

Until the sign with the words "copper hot pot" was hung up, no one gave the shop a second glance. After all, the shops here were constantly changing hands, and the rent was too expensive. If you couldn't make enough money, you would be forced to close down. Everyone had gotten used to it.

However, once the copper hot pot sign was hung up, it immediately attracted many passersby to stop and watch. Even many food connoisseurs stopped to ask the shop what hot pot was.

"Dear fellow villagers, today our store begins its trial operation. For the first three days of the trial operation, the first ten customers each day will have their meals free, regardless of how much they spend."

Upon hearing Li Youran's words, the crowd erupted in chaos.

Many people are curious about what copper hot pot is, but they are also afraid of being scammed, so they have always been hesitant to try it out.

The first ten customers are now getting a free meal, which is equivalent to eating and drinking for free, which has dispelled everyone's concerns.

Those who reacted quickly rushed into the shop. Those who were slower to react, having already come all this way, didn't care about spending a couple of coins, so they all went in and made a purchase.

Li Youran was also very good at handling things, and immediately gave the customer a 50% discount.

Summer is already hot and humid, and with so many hot pots being cooked in the restaurant, it's like a steam oven.

Li Youran ordered all the windows and doors to be opened, and also used a lot of ice in the shop to greatly reduce the heat.

"It feels so good, like experiencing both ice and fire!"

"It's so hot and spicy, a chilled drink is just so refreshing."

Before opening for business, Li Youran had already anticipated that chilled drinks would be very popular, but she did not expect them to be so popular. Basically, every table would order several chilled drinks.

It's important to know that even though ice cubes are expensive, chilled drinks don't require much cost.

The profit margin on beverages is simply outrageous. Li Youran calculated that the profits from beverages sold today alone were nearly one hundred taels of silver, not to mention the consumption of hot pot.

"Ruyu, since our iced drinks are so popular, why don't we open a small stall to sell iced drinks to the public? That way we can earn extra income."

Upon hearing Li Youran's suggestion, Hua Ruyu didn't hesitate and immediately took two assistants to prepare it.

You should know that Hua Ruyu is a practical person.

She had already seen the beverages for sale, but she hadn't expected Li Youran to be so resourceful as to think of opening a stall specifically to sell chilled drinks.

She couldn't help but sigh to herself, "We both have brains, so why is Li Youran's brain so much better?"

"Fourth Prince's Consort, I know that the task you entrusted to me may not be completed."

An elderly woman knelt on the ground and spoke to Hu Qinqin.

"It's just a matter of a woman opening her mouth, how can you not do it?"

Before Hu Qinqin could reply, the wet nurse beside her spoke first.

Hu Qinqin remained silent, which was seen as an implicit approval of the wet nurse's attitude. The woman kneeling on the ground hurriedly explained.
