Chapter 496: My younger sister will definitely not harm him
Seven or eight lanterns were brought in, and the small room suddenly became as bright as day, so bright that one could see the end at a glance.
A table, two chairs and a bed.
Although there was bedding on the bed, it was neatly laid out and had not been touched.
The third prince walked over and touched the bed.
The quilt was cold and there was no sign of anyone having slept in it.
His hands were still covered with a thick layer of dust.
He touched the table and chairs again, and they were also covered with dust.
Obviously, no one has lived here for a long time.
Ying Zhilin and Wen Yan looked at each other.
Huang Ying'er did live here a few days ago.
Their house had only been renovated a few days ago, and after it was completed, they hired someone to clean it thoroughly inside and out.
There shouldn't be such a thick accumulation of dust in the room.
The dust was obviously created on purpose.
But why isn't Huang Ying'er in the room?
Was it expected that he suddenly hid away?
Or does she have a special way of hiding?
The third prince is not stupid.
He immediately questioned, "Since there was no one in the room, why didn't you let them in to search?"
Ying Zhilin held Wen Yan's hand tightly and said, "I told you before, you broke into my home without permission and without proper procedures. I have no obligation to cooperate with your search."
The third prince knew that he could not get any important information, so he left angrily with his men.
Ying Zhilin stepped forward and closed the gate.
Wen Yancai let out a long sigh, "You just confronted the Third Prince. He's bound to make things difficult for you in the future."
Ying Zhilin was much more frank than her: "He and I are not the same kind of people. Unless I make a name for myself and become a judge in the Dali Temple, we will eventually come to blows."
Wen Yan looked towards the room where Huang Ying'er had lived: "Where did she go?"
"Since she didn't tell us, it means she has a secret that she doesn't want us to know. We should just carry on as usual."
Wen Yan didn't want to pry into other people's secrets, so she nodded.
The two returned to the bedroom.
This place has been turned upside down by the people who just searched it.
The two of them tidied up and then went to bed.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning.
They got up as usual.
The couple held hands and prepared to go out for breakfast early in the morning.
The yellow warbler who suddenly disappeared last night suddenly appeared again.
Fortunately, Wen Yan and Ying Zhilin were prepared, otherwise they would have been scared by her.
She took Wen Yan's hand and said, "I know that you are acquainted with the leader of the Weicheng Imperial Guards who is looking for me. Can you ask him to come here? I have something to discuss with him."
"Are you willing to show up?" Wen Yan asked.
"Yes! It's time to close the net." Huang Ying'er's eyes flashed with brilliance.
Wen Yan looked at Ying Zhilin.
Ying Zhilin nodded at her.
"Okay, I'll help you invite the person over." Wen Yan agreed and went out with Ying Zhilin.
Because the weather was too hot during this period, the two of them had breakfast at a bun stall.
Two bowls of warm soy milk and a tray of meat buns are enough for two people to have a full meal.
However, the two of them went to a different wonton shop today.
It’s just because this wonton shop is on the way Ji Chengyuan has to pass by to go to the yamen.
As expected.
As soon as their wontons were served, the person they were waiting for appeared.
"Junior brother, sister-in-law, come out and eat wontons!" Ji Chengyuan sat down with them familiarly, and said to the stall owner, "Mine is still the same."
While eating, they played and chatted like brothers.
Ji Chengyuan adopted the tone of his senior brother: "I am your senior brother, so you should treat me to breakfast."
Wen Yan covered her mouth and laughed, taking the opportunity to whisper Huang Ying'er's request to him.
Ji Chengyuan winked at her as a sign of agreement.
Wen Yan has a small appetite and eats little.
I was full after eating only seven or eight wontons.
She paid for the meal for the three of them and left.
Ying Zhilin pulled Wen Yan's bowl over and put the remaining wontons into his own bowl.
Ji Chengyuan said: "Not really. If it's not enough, just order another bowl."
It’s so dirty because it’s been eaten by others.
Ying Zhilin looked up at him and said with a smile, "Brother Yuan, have you forgotten the experience in Jinyang Prefecture so quickly?"
Ji Chengyuan coughed uncomfortably: "This is a different time now, it's not like we can't afford it, why should we endure the hardship?
We should be able to endure hardships and enjoy happiness, right?
Why not give the remaining half bowl of wontons to a beggar on the street?"
Ying Zhilin barely managed to restrain himself from hitting him.
Ying Zhilin gave him a mocking smile: "It's hard to explain this kind of thing to a man like you who has no wife."
Ji Chengyuan was hit by Ying Zhilin's words. He covered his chest and groaned for a long time before he said to Ying Zhilin: "Just wait, I will get married sooner or later."
After saying that, he stopped eating the wontons and left angrily.
Ying Zhilin smiled proudly: Even if you are a senior brother, don't think about escaping safely from his poisonous mouth.
Wen Yan went to Tianyi Cloth Shop.
I gave Shopkeeper Cui some samples of clothes and said: "Find the best embroiderer, use the best materials, and make them as quickly as possible and sell them.
Also, during this time, you keep an eye on Wen Ruyue's clothing store. If similar styles appear in her store, we won't stock them anymore, understand?"
"I understand." Shopkeeper Cui agreed.
Wen Yan asked about Fourth Brother Liu's recent situation again.
Shopkeeper Cui stroked his beard with a smile and said, "Young Master Liu Si has a sharp mind and is a good candidate for business.
He is fully capable of taking over my job.”
Wen Yan heard the tentative tone in Manager Cui's words.
Manager Cui was worried that Wen Yan would let Fourth Brother Liu take over his current position.
Shopkeeper Cui is an elder of the Meng family.
Not only is he a good shop runner, he is also extremely loyal to the Meng family.
She would never let go of such a talent.
Wen Yan immediately reassured Shopkeeper Cui: "Now that he has learned how to manage the shop, it's time for him to go out and learn how to run a business."
Shopkeeper Cui was surprised: "Young Master Liu wants to go into business?
This job is not only tiring, but also very dangerous..."
Wen Yan waved his hand and said, "I put so much effort into training him because I wanted him to be able to stand on his own and do his own business.
Instead of being a shopkeeper under me.
I need to trouble Shopkeeper Cui to ask my fourth brother to interact more with the caravans."
Wen Yan thought for a moment and then said, "If there are any younger generations in Shopkeeper Cui's family who want to go into business, they can partner with my fourth brother."
If you want Manager Cui to work hard, you have to give him some benefits.
Mutual benefit makes a relationship stable and long-lasting.
"Thank you, young master. I have a young man at home who is bored all day long.
I asked him to help out with Mr. Liu Si."
After the discussion, Manager Cui left.
After a while, Brother Liu Si came to find Wen Yan.
"Thank you, little sister."
Wen Yan waved his hand nonchalantly: "You are my fourth brother. If you can earn money, your parents' lives will get better.
It will also boost the tofu business of the eldest and third brothers."
Wen Yan handed him another note: "Here, take time out every day to go to this shop and learn all the incense there thoroughly."
"Okay." Brother Liu Si didn't ask the reason.
As long as his younger sister asked him to learn, he would learn.
I will definitely not harm him.
