Chapter 133 Who are you?
Wen Zhenyi greeted them with a smile as soon as he saw them: "You two are here to buy drinks."
Butler Cheng said with a smile: "That's right, it's so hot, our master and young master want to try the drinks in your shop. What's good to drink today?"
"Qingbuliang and lemon honey water."
The maid smiled and said, "Please give me five portions of each, Miss Wen, so I can take them away."
"Okay, wait a moment." Wen Zhenyi said and looked at Butler Cheng: "Where is the head butler?"
"I have three of each."
"Okay, please wait a moment." Wen Zhenyi took the food boxes from their hands and walked towards the kitchen.
Butler Cheng walked to the counter and handed the silver to Shen Hanxing: "Mr. Shen, are you here to work as an accountant for Miss Wen?"
"yes."
"When the master asked you to work as an accountant in his mansion, you refused."
"Because there are delicious foods here." Chen Hanxing smiled.
Butler Cheng was stunned for a moment, then reacted, smiled and shook his head: "That's right." Then he moved closer to Chen Hanxing and whispered: "If it were me, I would choose the same."
The maid didn't wait for the two to finish their conversation, but paid the money and waited on the side.
Wen Zhenyi handed them two food boxes: "This is your food."
Butler Cheng took the food box and said, "Miss Wen, some fruit will be delivered tomorrow. Also, the master asked me to ask about the banquet the day after tomorrow. Is there anything we need to prepare?"
"Butler Cheng, I'd like to ask, will only your master and young master be at the banquet the day after tomorrow?"
"Well, at this time of year, only the Master and the Young Master would dine with the Madam."
"Okay, I understand. I'll write out a list of ingredients tomorrow and you can just buy them. But you might have to prepare an extra one for me, and I'll pay for the other one myself."
"I'll send someone to pick it up tomorrow."
Wen Zhenyi sent the two out and was busy for a while. Ma Yinghe and the others had rested enough, so it was their turn to rest.
Chen Hanxing was not such a pretentious person, so he did not go back and rested for a while in Wen Yongnan's room.
When Wen Zhenyi woke up, the store was already closed.
Ma Yinghe and Zhu Tao were washing dishes in the backyard, while Wen Chengwen was disinfecting the dishes in the kitchen.
Shen Hanxing woke up at about the same time as him, washed his face, and started busying himself with his own work.
Ma Yinghe handed the money she had collected earlier to Shen Hanxing and told him what items she had sold and how many copies she had.
Wen Zhenyi couldn't help but admire his parents' good memory. They could remember so many scattered things clearly.
Zhu Tao looked at the things in the yard at home and asked: "Yi Yi, what should we sell tomorrow morning?"
"Wait until we sell soy milk, fried dough sticks and sticky rice tomorrow morning."
"But we didn't soak the beans today, how can we sell the soy milk?"
"We don't have to make it ourselves. I've made an appointment with the tofu stall owner, and he'll deliver it early in the morning. We just need to cook it."
"This saves a lot of trouble. Otherwise, it would be much more troublesome if we grind it ourselves."
"Xiao Taozi, go check if there's enough sugar left? We need it tomorrow."
Zhu Tao got up and went to the kitchen and the storage room to check: "Yi Yi, there is still a small jar."
"I'll go buy some. It might not be enough after tomorrow's use."
After Wen Zhenyi finished speaking, he said something to Ma Yinghe and went out to buy sugar.
There were more yamen runners patrolling the town now, and when they saw her, they hurriedly called out to her, "Miss Wen."
Wen Zhenyi stopped and saluted them: "Miss Brother."
"Miss Wen, there will be a curfew in town soon. If you have nothing to do at night, don't go out."
"Why is there a curfew out of nowhere? Did something happen?"
"It's okay, the mayor is trying to improve public security recently, so he hopes you can cooperate."
"We will definitely cooperate."
Wen Zhenyi frowned slightly as she looked at the departing official. This might be related to little Abu, but they had no idea what the specific situation was, so they could only wait for news.
After buying the candy, she returned to the store and told her family what the official had said.
Wen Chengwen frowned: "Why is there a curfew out of the blue?"
"Yes, there hasn't been a curfew in so many years." Ma Yinghe has never heard of a curfew since she married into Xinglin Village.
Wen Zhenyi smiled and said, "The officer said that they are here to rectify public order, so we just need to cooperate."
"That's true. We don't go out at night anyway."
Wen Zhenyi glanced at Chen Hanxing. Both of them were smart people and knew why, but no one said it.
Because of the curfew, Shen Hanxing and the others had to rush back to the private school after dinner.
After Wen Chengwen and the others washed up, they went to their rooms to rest.
Wen Zhenyi sat in the yard and waited until her hair was completely dry before she prepared to rest. She looked up at the starry sky through the leaves.
I don’t know what happened to little Abu’s parents and sister.
According to little Abu, they had been here for a few days and then ran away and hid. Logically, if his parents were still alive, they should have come to find him.
But they haven't been seen yet. Besides, the identities of little Abu's parents are probably not simple. With such a big thing happening, it is impossible that the people above them will not take any action at all.
Now she has no news at all and can't find any clues.
She raised her head to see the starry sky through the leaves, but she actually saw a pair of eyes, with the face hidden behind a face cloth.
The owner of the eyes was also stunned.
Wen Zhen raised her eyebrows. When did this person squat here? She remembered that when she went to wash up just now, she didn't notice anything unusual.
The owner of the eyes narrowed his eyes, hesitating whether to kill her.
"There's a curfew recently. If you don't want to get into trouble, you'd better sit down and talk."
The person on the tree hesitated for a moment, then jumped down and stood in front of Wen Zhenyi with a wary look on his face.
Wen Zhenyi looked at the person who came in. She was wearing a black tight-fitting suit and had a curvy figure. "It turns out to be a young lady."
The woman looked at Wen Zhenyi, who had no fear or panic on her face, and became more wary of her.
Wen Zhenyi shrugged helplessly when he saw her alertness: "I'm unarmed now, so there's no need to be so defensive against me. Besides, my family is already resting, and I don't want to disturb them."
The woman was thinking about what Wen Zhenyi said, and she could hear breathing coming from the room.
"You are a guest, why not sit down and chat for a while?"
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" The woman's voice was a little hoarse, and sounded like it had been sandpapered.
Wen Zhenyi propped his chin up and tilted his head to look at her: "I'm afraid, but I won't necessarily die in your hands."
The woman frowned, not knowing who Wen Zhenyi was. "Who are you?"
"As you can see, I'm just an ordinary citizen. I run a small shop and do some small business to make a living."
