No sooner had Da Sha finished speaking than Er Sha, the impatient one, chimed in as if his pants were on fire, "Yeah! We're also really curious about where she'll set up her stall next time, and whether what she sells will be related to food."
However, when questioned by the two, Master Xuanzhen revealed a set of uneven, yellow teeth and replied slowly:
"Young men, have you forgotten who we four old men are?"
"We're just lowly clerks responsible for serving food, how could we possibly know so much?"
As he spoke, he didn't forget to wink at his companions beside him.
The other three immediately understood and instantly grasped what the old man Xuanzhen meant.
He Donghai lied through his teeth: "That's right! With our status, how could we possibly know so many secrets about street vending?"
Fang Zheng's eyes darted around: "I think I heard someone looking for us!"
Drama Queen Doctor Zhou: "Then let's hurry up and leave! If the boss finds out we're slacking off here, we'll be in big trouble."
So, as if on cue, the four old men took off running away as if they had oil on their feet.
In fact, even if they knew perfectly well that Yun Zhizhi had only been running her stall for a short time, they wouldn't have the courage to tell the two people in front of them that Yun Zhizhi had only been running her stall for a short time.
If these two people can't control their mouths and accidentally spread this news, it could very likely cause them a lot of unexpected trouble.
Therefore, in order to get through this day peacefully, and in order to continue to enjoy the delicious food made by Yun Zhizhi in the future, choosing to remain silent is undoubtedly the wisest course of action.
At this moment, Da Sha and Er Sha watched as they slipped away as quickly as if they had greased their feet, and a strange feeling welled up in their hearts.
The next day.
After six consecutive days of getting up early to busy themselves with setting up their stall, Yun Zhizhi and He Yang finally had a day when they didn't have to rush to get up and could sleep in comfortably.
However, while they were sound asleep, they were unaware that things had already gotten out of hand at the Haibei District dock.
Initially, it was the construction workers who were used to arriving early who noticed the anomaly. Soon after, the diners who arrived a little later to patronize the stalls also noticed that something was wrong.
It turned out that more than a dozen eye-catching notices had been posted in prominent places around the dock.
When everyone saw what was written above, they immediately began to wail, their deep sense of loss palpable.
People started whispering and discussing among themselves.
Some people shook their heads and sighed, their faces full of regret; others lowered their voices and muttered curses under their breath.
One of the portly men exclaimed, "Oh dear! The thought that I'll never be able to taste this delicious boxed lunch again makes my heart, liver, spleen, and stomach ache like they're being pricked with needles!"
His exaggerated expressions and tone drew stares from those around him.
Another old man sighed, "No wonder Miss Yun slipped away without a word when we questioned her yesterday. It turns out she had planned to quit long ago!"
After saying that, he helplessly spread his hands, looking completely resigned.
Just then, an angry voice rang out from the crowd: "Hmph! Has that Yun Zhizhi lost her mind? Every time the stall is busiest, she inexplicably disappears. Has she ever thought about how we, her loyal customers, feel?"
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, his face turning bright red.
Some even gritted their teeth and shouted, "Why would Yun Zhizhi not make money when she can? Has she gone mad? I both love and hate her!"
Before he finished speaking, a chorus of agreement arose from the surrounding crowd.
…………
Amidst the chaos, Da Sha and Er Sha were stunned into silence upon hearing this devastating news, as if struck by lightning.
A moment later, they came to their senses and hugged each other tightly, bursting into tears.
"Waaaaah... Big brother, Yun Zhizhi is the only woman in this world who can break my heart."
Ersha cried with snot and tears streaming down his face, looking quite pitiful.
Da Sha sobbed as he choked out, "Second brother, I think so too. Yun Zhizhi is so wicked. We both got fat because of her, and we both got thin because of her."
What do you suggest we do?
Ersha sniffed and said helplessly, "Let's have a good cry first!"
At this moment, the Imperial Study, located deep within the palace, was exceptionally quiet.
Zhao Yunjin sat upright at his desk, his posture as straight as a pine tree. With graceful movements, he gently picked up a cup of top-quality Biluochun tea, which exuded a faint fragrance.
Then slowly bring it to your lips and savor it.
In contrast, the Emperor and Zhao Yunjin formed a stark contrast.
He paced anxiously back and forth in front of his own son.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the emperor was wearing a small, exquisite sloth plush pendant hanging from his waist. As he moved, the sloth swayed back and forth, looking quite adorable.
However, this did nothing to alleviate the emperor's anxiety.
Zhao Yunjin slightly raised her eyes and glanced indifferently at her biological father, who had been loitering in front of her for quite some time.
When he saw the emperor's slightly furrowed brows, he couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, but on the surface he remained silent and didn't utter a sound.
Finally, the Emperor could no longer contain himself and stopped to ask, "It's lunchtime now, Jin'er, don't you feel hungry at all?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunjin put down his teacup, a slight smile playing on his lips, and replied, "Originally, I didn't really feel that hungry, but after Father asked, I don't know why, I suddenly feel a bit hungry."
"Could it be that Father, you deliberately kept me in this imperial study for so long just so that I could stay and have lunch with you?"
The Emperor suppressed his inner joy, striving to maintain a calm expression, and slowly nodded in response:
"I do indeed have this thought. It has been a long time since you and I, father and son, have dined together alone like this, and I truly miss it!"
It seems his goal is about to be achieved.
