The Ninth Prince’s Mansion.
When Dong E listened to the news from the snack bar, her beautiful eyes were filled with solemnity.
"You said that Master Jiu has been asking about the snack shop owner every day these days?"
Qingmei nodded and said, "Yes, the person who just came to deliver the news also said that the owner of the snack shop did not tell Master Jiu."
Dong E frowned and said nothing. She tried hard to think about the reason, but she couldn't figure it out.
"A small snack shop owner who is not presentable doesn't even give face to Jiu Ye. But Jiu Ye is not angry and goes to see him every day. What's the reason behind this?"
"Fujin, could it be that Jiang Ranli is the owner of the snack bar?" Hongmei on the other side expressed her thoughts.
However, before Dong E could open her mouth, Qingmei rejected her idea, "How is that possible? Look at the streets full of people, there are no women showing their faces in public."
Dong E nodded in agreement with Qingmei's words. Even if there were women who were out in the open doing business, Jiang Ranli was only about fifteen or sixteen years old. How could she have the ability to open such a snack shop?
On this side, Dong E rejected Hongmei's guess, while on the other side, Sixian and Sidai were worried about this issue.
"Miss, Mrs. Fu won't find out that you are the owner of the snack bar, right? If so, she will definitely find a way to deal with our snack bar."
Thinking of this possibility, Sixian and Sidai became uneasy.
Jiang Ranli, who was standing by, was drinking a cup of sour plum soup happily, not at all like Sixian and Sidai who were worried.
"Miss, why aren't you worried at all? If the Lady knows that you opened a snack shop under the alias Jiang Ranli and attracted the attention of the Ninth Master, the Lady will definitely not let it go. At that time..."
Just as Sidai became more and more worried, Jiang Ranli held her hand and signaled her not to be so nervous.
"Don't worry so much. The snack shop has been run by Uncle Wang from its preparation to its opening. Almost no one knows that the owner of the snack shop is Jiang Ranli. As for whether his identity will be exposed, for now, as long as we act carefully, there will be no problem."
From the preparation to the operation of the snack shop, Jiang Ranli has always been the one giving advice from behind. Therefore, almost no one outside knows that she is the owner of the snack shop. Therefore, Jiang Ranli is not worried about this at all. In addition, she believes in Uncle Wang's ability to handle some emergencies.
So, what she has to do now is to keep a low profile.
Yin'er couldn't find Jiang Ranli, and Emperor Kangxi was about to return to the capital, so he stopped going to the snack shop every day. Instead, he prepared to welcome Emperor Kangxi with the other princes in Beijing.
Dong E hadn't seen Yinzhen go to the snack bar for several days, and her attention to the snack bar had eased a lot. In addition, she was Yinzhen's legitimate wife, and she had a lot of things to do when Emperor Kangxi returned to Beijing.
After learning all this, Jiang Ranli, who hadn't been to the snack bar for several days, finally went out. She never dressed up when she went out before, but today she changed into men's clothes and put a melon-shaped hat on her head, dressed like a young man.
Just in case, Sixian and Sidai still did not go out.
Walking quickly on the busy street, Jiang Ranli was determined to get to the snack shop. Unexpectedly, halfway through, he ran into Emperor Kangxi returning to the court.
The soldiers asked pedestrians to stand on both sides of the road to clear a smooth path for Emperor Kangxi's carriage.
