Chapter 1059 Encounter
"If you don't open it and I don't open it, this business will never be successful!"
"That's the truth!
Never mind, the family’s savings have been almost used up.
Since the imperial court gave in and exempted various taxes, I might as well give it a try. I'm just sitting at home doing nothing anyway.
My shop will open tomorrow, everyone please come and support me!"
"Okay, my shop will also be open the day after tomorrow."
Everyone dispersed, and Zhang Juexia took everyone home.
Pushing open the door of her home, she looked at the familiar courtyard. Although it was deserted, it was kept very clean and tidy.
As soon as she sat down, Shen Liang came over, "Madam, you are back so soon!"
“Just now, when I entered the city, I saw what I needed to see.
Let's clean up our shop and open for business!"
"Great, ma'am, everyone has been waiting for this day!
The shopkeeper and his assistants have already arrived."
Zhang Juexia was slightly stunned after hearing what Shen Liang said, "Not a single one left?"
Shen Liang quickly understood what Zhang Juexia meant, "Madam, you are so kind to everyone. If they leave, where will they find a boss as kind as you?"
“That’s right!”
Zhang Juexia praised himself a few times, and then warned Shen Liang, "Shen Liang, the food reserves at home are running low. This time you must cheer up and take good care of the business of the shop!"
Shen Liang quickly responded, “Madam, don’t worry, we know what to do.”
After Chen Liang left, Zhang Juexia went to the Xiaoyao Escort Agency next door. There were only a few elderly people left in the agency, and they all knew Zhang Juexia.
After Zhang Juexia entered, they all came forward and saluted her. Originally, Zhang Juexia wanted to ask them for some information, but they ended up chasing her and asking her questions.
"Boss Zhang, is there any news from Escort Leader Ren?"
"Boss Zhang, we brothers heard that Qinglan City has settled down, and the evil-minded Chen State has been driven away by us.
I just wonder when Biaotou Ren and the others will be back?"
Zhang Juexia thought, if I knew when they would return, why would I need to ask you, "Is there any letter from Qinglan City?"
Several elderly people shook their heads and said, "We are looking forward to it too!"
Zhang Juexia forced himself to cheer up, "Biaotou Ren and the others should be here soon!"
“That’s really great.
After the Chinese New Year, we have already received several orders.”
Zhang Juexia asked them if they had any difficulties in life, and they all shook their heads, "Boss Zhang, when Escort Leader Ren set out, he made all the arrangements for us.
We have everything we need, and it's a shame to say that if we weren't so old and clumsy, we brothers wouldn't have turned away those orders that came to us."
"Just do as Leader Ren tells you to do.
You have taken good care of the house, which is also a meritorious service."
After hearing what Zhang Juexia said, the faces of several people really relaxed a lot.
After Zhang Juexia left the escort agency, she walked on the street. Li Yiran, who happened to be entering the city, lifted the carriage curtain and saw her, "Juexia, Zhang Juexia!"
Zhang Juexia stopped and looked around for the sound. Li Yiran had already stopped the carriage and was running towards Zhang Juexia in a hurry.
Wu Haoran chased after her with a worried look on his face, "Madam, slow down!
Be careful with the baby in your belly."
Zhang Juexia had already grabbed Li Yiran, "Your husband is worried about you!"
"It's okay. He makes a fuss every day. I'm used to it."
Zhang Juexia looked at Li Yiran and asked, "How many months?"
Li Yinan shyly replied, "Almost four months."
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you, Juexia!"
"Where are you going?"
"I'm walking around."
"Don't leave, I want to talk to you."
"Then let's go to my house!"
At this time, Li Yiran's words were what they meant. Wu Haoran told Li Yiran, "I will take my people home to clean up first, and leave Madam Hu by your side to serve you."
Li Yiran shook her head repeatedly, "My husband, Madam Hu has too many things to do. She can't do this, she can't do that. Just leave my maid here."
Wu Haoran gave in after seeing Li Yiran's pitiful look, "Well, you better be careful!
But please don't cause trouble for Madam Ye."
Wu Haoran bowed to Zhang Juexia again and said, "Mrs. Ye, I'll trouble you to take care of my wife."
Zhang Juexia suddenly felt that the burden on him was very heavy, and said to Li Yiran, "You must be obedient, otherwise..."
Li Yiran had already stepped forward and put his arm around Zhang Juexia. "Don't listen to him. I'm already a grown-up, and I still can't take care of myself."
Wu Haoran looked at his wife helplessly. After they were far away, he jumped into the carriage and headed in another direction.
Zhang Juexia brought Li Yiran back home, and Li Yun came in with tea. Zhang Juexia instructed Li Yun, "Sister-in-law Yang, go to the kitchen quickly and ask Taohua to make some soup suitable for pregnant women."
Li Yun was overjoyed, "Madam, is Madam Wu pregnant?"
"Um!"
“This is such a great joy!
This is the first day in the city and something good has happened. It’s really great.
Mrs. Wu, do you have any dietary restrictions?
Do you like sweet, salty, sour, or spicy food?"
Li Yiran replied with a blushing face, "Sister Yang, thank you for your trouble. Anything is fine. I'm not picky."
"Then I'll go to the kitchen now, please wait!"
After Li Yun left, Zhang Juexia glanced at Li Yiran and said, "It's rare for our Madam Wu to be shy!"
"Haven't they adapted to it yet?
Juexia, I actually didn’t expect to meet you on my first day in the city.”
"Don't you want to touch me?"
"How could that be possible! We haven't had an easy time these days.
Ever since I returned to the city from your farm, I have been hiding in a farm in the countryside with my in-laws.
I was unfamiliar with the place, and even though my in-laws were nice to me, I just didn't feel comfortable."
"Where is your Master Wu?"
“At first, he was also on duty, but later on, forget it. He just couldn’t stand some of the practices of the higher-ups.
So, I resigned from my post and stayed at home."
Zhang Juexia looked as if she understood everything, but Li Yiran glared at her, "Stop talking nonsense!
I'm just pregnant!
How old is your Ye Ben? Don’t be ignorant of this.”
"You really don't know how to appreciate kindness." I'm really happy for you.
"That's more like it!"
"What are your plans?"
Li Yinran stroked her belly with her hand and said, "The most important thing now is to give birth to the baby smoothly."
"Just tell me if you need any help."
"Of course, I'm the only one who knows you well in Qingfeng City, so I'll definitely have to trouble you when the time comes.
Juexia, is there still no news about Ye Beixiu?"
"No news at this time is also good news!"
