Zhao Wu has always been known for his efficiency and speed.
Sure enough, the well-trained guards he dispatched acted swiftly, like arrows released from a bow. Before long, the news that Yun Zhizhi was selling snacks at the entrance of Chen's wooden plank shop spread like wildfire throughout the capital.
Unfortunately, the news did not cause a great stir; it was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, only creating a few insignificant ripples.
Upon hearing this rumor, many ordinary people shook their heads in disbelief.
After all, who would be foolish enough to set up a stall in such a gloomy and unlucky place as the entrance to a coffin shop?
Therefore, the vast majority of people believe that this news is completely unfounded.
Even though most people scoffed at this, a very small minority still chose to believe it.
And Zheng Yuhui, the famous daughter of Zheng Jintian, the Grand Minister of Agriculture, happened to be one of them.
At this very moment, Zheng Yuhui was sitting in the lobby of Hongyun Restaurant with her personal maid, enjoying a sumptuous lunch.
On the large table, a dazzling array of ten dishes and a large plate of rice were laid out.
The diners passing by didn't seem too surprised by the scene, as they were already used to the fact that the eldest daughter of the Da Si Nong family was a big eater and drinker.
You should know that Zheng Yuhui is a well-known big eater in Beijing, with an astonishing appetite!
At that moment, Zheng Yuhui held a shiny chicken leg tightly in her left hand and took a big bite; then, she brought the duck leg in her right hand to her mouth and also unceremoniously bit off a piece of meat.
Just as she was enjoying her meal, a conversation coming from the next table caught her attention.
"I heard some really funny news on my way here." The speaker had a mysterious look on his face, which successfully piqued the curiosity of the others.
"Tell us quickly!" one of them urged.
The man lowered his voice and slowly said, "I heard that Yun Zhizhi went to set up a stall selling snacks in front of Chen's Coffin Shop on Yunhe Street today."
Upon hearing this, those present were first taken aback, and then burst into laughter.
"Haha~ This is too ridiculous! Although Yun Zhizhi has always had a rather peculiar way of thinking and the places she goes to set up her stall are all more bizarre than the last, how could she be so stupid as to go to a coffin shop, such an unlucky place, to set up a stall this time! I don't believe it even if you beat me to death."
One of them laughed so hard he almost fell over, shaking his head repeatedly in disbelief.
"Exactly, who would want to buy snacks in front of a coffin shop? Just thinking about it gives me the creeps."
Another person chimed in, equally dismissing the rumor.
"I don't believe it either," someone else chimed in.
For a moment, they were all discussing it, none of them believing that the rumor was true.
However, Zheng Yuhui frowned slightly upon hearing this, and after pondering for a moment, she turned to her personal maid and said, "Xiao Lan, you have two cups of tea's time to fill your stomach quickly."
Xiao Lan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and looked at Zheng Yuhui with some confusion.
But when she saw her young mistress stuffing food into her mouth at an astonishing speed, she immediately realized that her mistress was not joking.
So Xiaolan didn't dare to delay and quickly picked up her bowl and chopsticks, wolfing down her food.
Before long, the time it takes to drink two cups of tea had passed.
Zheng Yuhui put down her chopsticks, stood up, and without saying a word, grabbed Xiaolan's hand and walked out. Her steps were hurried, as if there was something urgent waiting for them to deal with.
Xiao Lan was dragged along by Zheng Yuhui, running all the way, and asked breathlessly, "Miss, where are we going? You should have told me!"
Without turning her head, Zheng Yuhui replied, "Chen's Coffin Shop."
Upon hearing this, Xiaolan's eyes widened in astonishment. "Miss, you actually believed that rumor! It's just nonsense from the streets."
However, Zheng Yuhui nodded slightly, "Yes. Let's hurry up. The things Yun Zhizhi sells are very popular. If we go too late, we might not be able to buy them."
Yun Zhizhi was the object of her admiration, and she firmly believed that Yun Zhizhi was not mentally ill as the rumors outside the world claimed.
On the contrary, in Zheng Yuhui's eyes, Yun Zhizhi was clever, resourceful, and full of clever ideas; she was simply amazing!
After enjoying the meal that Zhao Yunjin had specially sent to deliver, He Yang let out a loud, satisfied burp.
Then, he slowly stood up and stretched comfortably.
Just then, He Yang raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and casually pointed to the left front, saying in a relaxed tone, "Boss, look over there, get ready for today's third deal."
Yun Zhizhi immediately turned her gaze to the direction He Yang was pointing.
In the distance, two graceful women were seen slowly walking towards their stall.
The woman in the gorgeous dress was particularly eye-catching; she smiled broadly and waved enthusiastically at them.
Seeing this, Yun Zhizhi turned to He Yang beside her and asked curiously, "Do you know this woman?"
He Yang nodded at first, but then quickly shook his head slightly: "Well... we've met twice before, but we're not close."
"This Zheng Yuhui is a well-known big eater in our capital! It's all thanks to her maternal grandfather being the richest man in Hezhou Prefecture. Otherwise, the monthly salary of the Grand Minister of Agriculture alone wouldn't be enough to support his daughter who eats so much."
