Chapter 61 The Tormented Wenwan



His eyes lit up slightly as soon as he tasted the fruit.

The fingernail-sized pieces of fruit swirled in his mouth before being carefully swallowed.

The master and servant waited quietly for more than a dozen breaths, but did not notice anything unusual.

The young boy was pleasantly surprised. "Uncle Yang."

Uncle Yang was also very pleased, "Then young master, have some more. Have one piece first, since it's cold food."

The little boy obediently agreed, took the stick, and took a small bite of the strawberry.

Yang Bo was all smiles. He immediately turned around and strode out to find the servant from before.

Ask him to estimate the quantity of fruit at the Cloud Vegetable Shop, and then have some people quickly buy it all back.

From yesterday to today, he has had the kitchen staff keep trying it out.

The only result of the trial was that the vegetables were bought from the Cloud Vegetable Shop.

The young master can eat quite a lot if cooked alone.

If other meat and vegetables are added, they will only eat a little, and they will pick and choose the vegetables from Yunjian Vegetable Shop.

If a dish is served, the proportion of vegetables from Yunjian Vegetable Shop is less than that of the others.

He could not eat it at all; if he forced it down, he would immediately feel nauseous.

So he planned to buy all the strawberries and have the cook figure out how to make them into dried fruit or candied fruit, so that the young master could have a regular snack to eat.

Yun Zhiyi had just finished resting.

Every morning is the peak time for selling vegetables.

Most people choose to buy all their groceries for the day early in the morning.

Therefore, she spends most of her mornings cutting and selling vegetables using machines.

Today we had fifty cabbages, and now only five are left. A lot of the other vegetables have also been bought up.

The strawberry remained untouched, all alone.

She wiped her hands, picked up a strawberry, and ate it slowly.

As they were eating, a group of people dressed identically approached.

One of them was the same man who had bought strawberries earlier.

It seems he really is a servant from some wealthy family.

Seeing that she was eating strawberries, the other person quickly stepped forward and glanced at the strawberries in the basket.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that not much had been lost.

"Shopkeeper, I want all these strawberries. Can you count if we have enough people here?"

Yun Zhiyi raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "That's enough. Eighty-two strawberries, two will be a bonus. Take the basket with you too. 400 coins, thank you for your patronage."

The servant quickly counted out the copper coins and handed them over, picked up the basket, and asked, "I wonder if there are any more of these fruits?"

Yun Zhiyi nodded, "There will be more tomorrow, one hundred per day, but the price will be different from today's trial price."

The servant frowned. "How much money?"

"Fifty coins per piece."

The servant's eyes widened suddenly. "Fifty coins? You, you're robbing me!" The price had increased tenfold in an instant.

Those around who overheard this gasped in shock.

Goodness, fifty coins for a single fruit! The shopkeeper is really daring to sell them.

Yun Zhiyi simply smiled and shrugged, "Your family will know whether it's worth it or not."

Since she said that, the servants couldn't argue, so they could only take the strawberries back first.

Mr. Chen felt a pang of regret as he watched them take all the strawberries away.

I should have bought one to try first.

Around noon.

Yun Zhiyi's vegetable stall has become sparsely populated.

As always, the cabbages were sold out early.

The other three types of vegetables were available in the same quantity as usual today, so there are only single digits left now.

She looked up at the bright sun outside.

Although she has a special ability to automatically regulate her body temperature, just looking at her still makes you feel hot.

She was getting a little tired of selling vegetables and was thinking about opening a cold drink shop next door, so at least she would have something to do and wouldn't be so bored.

While she was living a comfortable life, Wen Wan, far away in the capital, was suffering terribly during this time.

After being caught in bed together that day, she and Xu Baofu were taken back to the Earl's mansion.

Xu Baofu was temporarily detained, but he insisted that the two were in love and had pledged their lives to each other.

Wen Wan certainly couldn't admit it, but now that Xu Baofu knew her secret, she didn't dare to say anything too absolute.

She only assured her parents that they had not done anything improper and that she only had brotherly and sisterly feelings for Xu Baofu.

However, the other party was too deeply in love with her, and considering the kindness of her adoptive parents, she thought she would slowly explain things to him later.

But he never expected to be framed by others and have his reputation ruined.

She also asked Cen to find a woman to examine her body.

Once it was confirmed that she was still a virgin, no matter how angry Cen was at her for her foolish actions, she could only weep and plead for mercy on her behalf.

An Yuanbo has lost face again because of her, and now he doesn't even dare to leave his house. It's impossible for him to give up easily again.

Moreover, he had originally planned to arrange a marriage between his daughter and other powerful families, but now that her reputation is completely ruined, she certainly won't be able to enter those prestigious families, and naturally, she has lost her value.

So he gave Wen Wan an ultimatum, telling her to find a way to silence Xu Baofu and prevent him from appearing again, and then return to the old house in Dongjing to reflect on her mistakes.

Dongjing is the hometown of Anyuanbo, and there is also a bo's mansion there.

Some of An Yuanbo's concubines, illegitimate children, and illegitimate sons lived in the old house.

Only during festivals, if one is fortunate enough to be summoned, can one make a trip to the capital.

Both things made Wen Wan so anxious that she developed blisters on her lips.

According to his father's wishes, Xu Baofu should be made to disappear completely.

This wasn't a difficult task, but she feared that if her biological father found out that she had killed his son, he would fight to the death and expose her identity.

She was supposed to go back to Dongjing to reflect on her mistakes, but given her current reputation, it's uncertain when she'll be able to return.

So we absolutely cannot go back like this.

She had just walked out of the dungeon and managed to calm Xu Baofu down before planning to go find her mother and plead for mercy.

Let her beg her father to give her another chance.

As soon as he stepped into the corridor, he was stopped by a maid.

Wen Wan was already annoyed, and when she saw the maid blocking her way, she wanted to hit her.

The maid quickly revealed her purpose.

"Young Miss, Aunt Chun asked me to pass on a message to you. She has a way to help you resolve your current troubles, and she only requests that you meet her."

Wen Wan was taken aback, then narrowed her eyes and sneered, "She's not dead yet? She made me kneel for a whole day as punishment, and she still dares to ask me to see her?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped the maid to the ground.

"She thinks she's something."

Chun Yiniang was originally Cen Shi's head maid, and later became An Yuanbo's concubine.

Because of her skill in perfumery, she was able to help Yun Zhiyi make Spring Jade Dew, so she was also kept in the Marquis's mansion in the capital.

However, Wen Wan now hates everything related to Yun Zhiyi to the core.

Two days ago, she failed to find her father and stormed back to the courtyard, where she happened to meet Aunt Chun picking flowers in the garden.

She was angry and went to vent her anger on her.

Unexpectedly, he accidentally pushed someone down, and the person's head hit the artificial hill, causing them to faint.

She was then punished by her father by being made to kneel in the garden for a day.

Although she only knelt for an hour, she pretended to faint and was taken away by Madam Cen.

But he developed a deep hatred for Aunt Chun.

However, because his father was still angry, he dared not cause any more trouble.

The maidservant quickly got up and knelt down. Seeing that she was about to leave, she hurriedly said...

“Miss, your aunt said that the Lord wants to summon several eligible young ladies from Dongjing to the capital to discuss marriage. She has a way to keep you in the capital, and the Lord will value you again.”
