How many gifts?
At this moment, Madam He had a bad feeling and hurriedly asked, "What exactly did you send to Zhizhi?"
"I gave all the peonies, orchids, and peonies in the back garden to the eldest son."
Upon hearing this answer, Old Madam He and Madam He exchanged a glance, both seeing the pain in each other's eyes.
That kid really knows how to pick; he only sends out the most precious and rare varieties.
However, He Yang did not stop there and continued, "In addition to flowers, I also gave you a few paintings and calligraphy works, as well as a few pieces of porcelain."
As soon as he finished speaking, his father, He Wenliang, trembled slightly in the hand holding the teacup. He quickly glanced around the main hall out of the corner of his eye.
As expected, the three paintings and calligraphy that were originally hanging on the wall, as well as the two pieces of porcelain that were placed on the table for people to admire, have now disappeared without a trace.
No wonder he felt the main hall was somewhat empty since he sat down; it turned out these precious items were missing.
At this moment, He Yang keenly sensed the subtle changes in the emotions of the three of them.
He had originally intended to bring up the myna bird, but upon seeing the situation before him, he immediately wisely shut his mouth.
He Donghai, on the other hand, was secretly overjoyed.
Thankfully, my baby wasn't given away.
But it wasn't long before he stopped laughing.
Fifteen minutes later.
He Donghai rushed to the villa where He Yang lived.
He asked He Yang breathlessly, "Yang'er, have you seen my precious little darling: Little Black the myna?"
"I searched the entire He mansion, but I couldn't find any trace of it. I fed it insects this morning, so how could it have disappeared?"
He Yang's eyes darted around. He wanted to tell the truth, but he was afraid of his grandfather's shrewish roar, so he had no choice but to lie.
“I did see your little black myna bird when I went out this morning.”
He Donghai asked urgently, "Then where did it go?"
"It flew away."
It flew to Yunfu.
Upon hearing this, He Donghai closed his eyes.
Seeing the heartbroken look on his face, He Yang quickly comforted him, "Grandfather, don't be sad. You have more than one myna bird, and the other two are prettier than Xiao Hei."
He Donghai curled his lip, "You don't understand! Xiao Hei is the most intelligent, and it's the only one that can talk."
"I'll send someone to buy you a myna bird that can speak sweet words. It'll definitely be better than Little Blackie."
It took He Yang half an hour to coax the old man back to his senses.
In the dead of night, the moonlight spilled like water onto the window.
Yun Zhizhi lay on the bed, staring wide-eyed as she silently counted the sheep.
One sheep, two sheep...
Tonight, she had an unusual insomnia.
As she silently counted to the 1688th sheep, a clear voice suddenly rang in her ears.
"Host, since you can't sleep, would you like to hear about the specific location for the next stall?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhizhi immediately perked up, her previously tense nerves instantly relaxed, and she even felt a little excited.
She asked softly, "Where are we going to set up our stall this time?"
"At the entrance of Lishan Academy."
"oh?"
Yun Zhizhi raised an eyebrow and asked again, "When will it start?"
Little Winter Melon immediately responded: "It will start in seven days, and the stall will be open for four days."
Yun Zhizhi suddenly recalled her previous experiences setting up a stall and couldn't help but feel a little worried. So she asked Xiao Donggua to confirm, "Lishan Academy shouldn't be on the mountain, and it's not some kind of evil place, right?"
There's nothing she can do; the side effects of running a street stall are already starting to take hold.
Little Winter Melon seemed amused. "Don't worry, Lishan Academy is located in the southern part of the capital, close to the city gate entrance, so we don't need to travel far to set up a stall this time."
Yun Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems the system chose a pretty good location for her this time.
"Have you decided what you want to sell this time? If not, you can have one night to think about it."
At this moment, Yun Zhizhi already had an idea.
Upon hearing that she was going to set up a stall at the academy, the words "mala tang" (a spicy hot pot dish) immediately popped into her mind.
Students love mala tang (a spicy hot pot dish), so setting up a stall to sell mala tang would be very popular and would be a good choice.
So she confidently replied, "I've already decided, this time I'll sell mala tang (spicy hot pot). Click to confirm now!"
Little Winter Melon was a little surprised, but still kindly reminded him, "Are you really not going to think about it for one night? It'll be too late to regret it later."
Yun Zhizhi shook her head firmly, "No need, I've already made up my mind."
After saying that, she clicked the confirmation button on the virtual panel without hesitation.
Seeing this, Little Winter Melon said with a grin, "Host, congratulations on moving to your new home. I'm planning to give you a big gift, how about it?"
However, Yun Zhizhi suddenly felt uneasy and decisively refused: "No."
Little Winter Melon was stunned.
It never expected its host to act so unpredictably.
"Didn't I mention the system upgrade to you a couple of days ago? This time, a new feature has been added. If you complete it successfully as required, you will be rewarded; otherwise, you will be punished."
Seeing that she didn't act aggressively, Xiao Donggua continued, "This time, if you can successfully sell spicy hot pot to fifty students from Lishan Academy within these four days of setting up your stall, you will have completed your mission."
"Can't we refuse this mission?" Yun Zhizhi asked.
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhizhi began to curse: "I knew your lousy system was useless even after the upgrade, all you do is cause trouble for people!"
