Chapter 050: Reborn with a Brain
Wen Yan returned to the room with brisk steps.
Then I found that Meng Chifei had also woken up.
Sitting on the bed rubbing his eyes: "Where did you go just now?"
Wen Yan put the medicine bottle back in the drawer: "I went to check on Ying Zhilin. How come you woke up too? Do you want some water?"
While Wen Yan was speaking, he had already poured the water and handed it to her mouth.
Meng Chifei drank the water in two gulps and poured a glass for Wen Yan.
"Hmph, it seems I came at the wrong time and disturbed the love between some newlyweds."
"Yes, yes, you left me without a beautiful woman tonight, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
Wen Yan put down the cup and rushed over to tickle Meng Chifei.
Meng Chifei laughed out loud because of the itch and rolled around on the bed.
She didn't dare to fight back, fearing that she wouldn't be able to control her strength and might hurt Wen Yan.
Wen Yan didn't let her go until Meng Chifei laughed until tears came out and begged for mercy.
After the two of them had enough fun, they lay down again and started chatting casually.
Talk about what they have experienced in the past six months.
Apart from the more than one month since her rebirth, Wen Yan could no longer remember anything else because it had been so long.
So, basically it was Meng Chifei who was talking and she was responsible for listening.
It is said that she followed her father to the battlefield in the severe winter and killed the foreigners who plundered the people, leaving them fleeing in panic.
It is said that after the spring, she taught the local people how to grow crops.
It is said that she went to the grassland and hunted wolves in a thrilling way.
Each and every one of them is thrilling and interesting.
Wen Yan was listening intently.
Meng Chifei suddenly changed the subject and said to her, "I have already reported the drought in Jinyang Prefecture to His Majesty.
Just like what my eldest brother said, His Majesty doesn't care, and he also said that droughts in the north and occasional water shortages are normal."
Wen Yan hummed softly, "It's within my expectations."
She had expected this result.
"But don't lose heart," Meng Chifei continued, "Brother is planning to send someone to Jinyang Prefecture to investigate. I believe it won't be long before the true situation there is reported back. Your Majesty will then be unable to disbelieve it."
"Remind Big Brother, the people you send over should be smart. It's best to investigate secretly and not make any noise."
Meng Chifei looked at Wen Yan: "Do you know something?"
Wen Yan did not deny: "I do know some inside information, but I don't know how to tell you now."
"Then wait until you can tell me. Anyway, I know you won't harm us." Meng Chifei didn't ask any questions.
"When the time is right, I will tell you everything I know." Wen Yan held Meng Chifei's hand.
Meng Chifei held her hand in his backhand, and they smiled at each other.
The two started talking about other things.
After a while, Meng Chifei fell asleep.
Wen Yan tucked the quilt for her and said softly, "Sister Chi Fei, this time, we will be fine!"
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning.
When Wen Yan woke up, it was already bright outside.
Meng Chifei has already gotten up.
There were very low voices coming from the yard.
When Wen Yan packed up and went out, she found Meng Chifei practicing boxing in the yard.
Next to her was a middle-aged woman.
She stood by holding a towel, watching Meng Chifei practice boxing with a smile on her face.
I heard the door open.
The woman looked over and bowed to Wen Yan: "Miss Wen Yan."
"Madam Ya, why are you here so early?" Wen Yan was surprised.
Nanny Ya was originally the dowry nanny of Meng Chifei's mother.
She helped Meng's mother with household chores and never got married.
When Meng Chifei turned thirteen, her mother assigned her some business to practice and gave her Ya Ma.
Nanny Ya has been with Meng Chifei for five or six years and has gained her trust.
She was her most capable housekeeper, and had always helped her manage the shop and farm.
"As soon as the city gate opens, we will leave the city." Nanny Ya replied with a smile.
At this time, Meng Chifei had also finished practicing boxing.
Nanny Ya immediately handed over a handkerchief, and after Meng Chifei wiped the sweat off his face, she handed him some tea.
After Meng Chifei quenched his thirst, he said to Aunt Ya, "When you first arrived, you said something happened in the shop. Now Yanyan is awake. Can you tell us what happened?"
Nanny Ya lowered her eyes and said respectfully, "The two adjacent shops on Donglin Street were rented out a few days ago."
"What? It's already rented out?" Meng Chifei exclaimed, "How come it's rented out just when we want to use it?"
The Imperial College is located on Donglin Street.
Although there are no ordinary people coming and going, everyone who comes and goes is rich.
But in fact, apart from food, drink and writing, the business there is not good.
On that street, there are too many restaurants selling food, drinks and calligraphy. Not only is the competition fierce, but they also don’t make much money.
Half a year ago, Meng Chifei stopped his business there and wanted to rent out the shop to earn some rent.
Aunt Ya has kept her shop in the pawnshop for more than half a year and has never rented it out.
Until a few days ago, good news suddenly came from the dental clinic.
It was said that a big customer bought two adjacent shops at once, signed a five-year contract, and paid two years' rent.
Meng Chifei was surprised: "Whose stupid...financial sponsor is so generous?!"
Nanny Ya glanced at Wen Yan and said nothing more.
Wen Yan was confused by the look on her face by Nanny Ya.
Could it be that the person who rented the shop is related to me?
"In the capital, the most suitable place to open a calligraphy and painting shop is Donglin Street. Other streets are not as good as others.
Yanyan, what should we do now?"
Aunt Ya was surprised and asked, "What? Miss also wants to open a calligraphy shop?"
"What do you mean?" Meng Chifei immediately grasped the key point.
Aunt Ya immediately said, "The two shops we just rented out are also for calligraphy and painting, and they will open tomorrow."
"Such a rush!" Meng Chifei was surprised. "We've only rented it out for a few days, and they've already finished the renovations and stocking. They're really fast!"
Wen Yan asked, "Madam Ya, the person who rented your shop couldn't be my sister, Wen Ruyue, right?"
Sure enough, Aunt Ya nodded.
"Why is she the troublemaker again!" Meng Chifei looked displeased.
Ever since Wen Ruyue returned to the Wen family, she has been targeting Wen Yan everywhere.
He also sowed discord between Wen Yan and the Wen family, causing Wen Yan to suffer a lot, both openly and covertly.
If Wen Yan hadn't stopped her, she would have dealt with her long ago.
"No, Aunt Ya, go back and take back the shop. At worst, you can pay her the penalty according to the contract.
I would rather let those two shops sit empty and gather dust than rent them out to her to make money."
"Don't." Wen Yan stopped Meng Chifei, "Why not make money if you have it."
"There are so many empty shops on Donglin Street. Why did she have to rent from mine when there are so many other shops? She's clearly provoking you!"
Wen Yan spread her hands indifferently, "Let her provoke us if she wants to. If we don't take her seriously, then her efforts will be in vain.
Let's just treat it as a monkey show."
Wen Yan comforted Meng Chifei with her mouth, but she was thinking in her heart.
yes.
Why did Wen Ruyue insist on renting those two shops?
Still doing the writing business.
Wen Ruyue is good at spending money, but not good at making money or doing business.
It's impossible that she would develop a business acumen after being reborn.
Wen Yan thought of something and couldn't help but smile slightly: "That store will open tomorrow, let's go and take a look and join in the fun."
