Chapter 140 Two Stores Opening



However, I changed my mind and gave up.

If he knew that the lychees he sent had caused his mother and maternal family so much trouble, he would definitely feel guilty.

Kids tend to overthink things, so I don't want them to have sleepless nights again.

They might even go directly back to the capital.

Going back at this juncture is really not the right thing to do.

Otherwise, Princess Zhao would have sent someone to fetch her long ago.

After thinking it over, she finally passed the question directly to Fu Yuanbo.

Let their own family members mind their own business; she won't interfere anyway.

Fu Yuanbo frowned slightly upon learning the situation.

Such things happen all the time in the royal family.

Under normal circumstances, he would not have interfered.

However, after spending some time with his great-grandson, I've grown quite fond of the child.

Of course, we need to protect it.

He had his third grandson write a letter to the emperor, asking him to give his second son and his father a warning.

Fu Yuanbo only remembered this when it was mentioned.

It seems that he hasn't told his son about his third grandson's recovery yet.

So he simply had his grandson explain the situation here and that the two of them would probably stay here for about a year.

Yun Zhiyi also wrote a letter back to Princess Fu'an.

In Princess Fu'an's letter, the matter concerning Princess Zhao and Fu Ziyu was only briefly mentioned.

It mainly concerns lychees and strawberries.

Princess Fu'an wanted to know how many lychees and strawberries she had left.

She wants to buy some.

Buying is out of the question, but giving some away as a gift is possible.

However, strawberries cannot be delivered now.

Besides transportation issues, strawberries are also in short supply now.

The harvested fruit can probably only be sold for another five days.

The next batch won't be ready for harvest for another two weeks.

She is currently preparing to remove the strawberries from the store and will try to supply the remaining ones to the two new stores.

There are still quite a few lychees left.

But now we also need to supply two stores.

It originally weighed over 700 jin (350 kg).

Fu Ziyu bought 100 jin (50 kg), and the rest was eaten or given away, so he spent about 200 jin (100 kg) of the rest.

During that time, more than 100 jin were also sent to Weimanzhai, and they were given to the customers as free gifts every day.

Now only a little over 200 jin (100 kg) remain.

Fortunately, she thought she could eat slowly and didn't immediately take out some lychee wine.

Lychees and strawberries cannot be sent.

The watermelons are ripe now, so that's fine.

She selected two white jade melons, placed each in a basket filled with hay, and asked the messenger to take them back together.

It's not that she's stingy or unwilling to give more.

The watermelons are huge; even the two smallest white jade watermelons weigh over 20 pounds.

It was just right for the messenger to carry the fast horse back.

If it's even heavier, we'll have to use a vehicle to haul it.

Moreover, she sent more than just watermelons this time.

It just so happens that several kinds of fruit trees in the village have recently started bearing fruit and ripening.

There are mulberries, raspberries, peaches, pears, rose grapes, plums, apricots, and plums. Longans and cherries will have to wait another month.

She hasn't had anyone pick these fruits yet; they're all still hanging on the trees.

Of course, it's hard to say whether they were stolen.

This directly points to Fu Yuanbo.

She picked out two bunches of rose grapes and two bunches of sapphire grapes, ten honey pears, and ten peaches.

(Rose grapes: Sweet, they have no flaws except for being sweet. Every time I eat them, they are so sweet that they make me cough.)

The peaches aren't fully ripe yet, so they're not as soft and juicy; they're slightly crunchy, but the taste is still quite good.

The plum blossoms were still slightly sour, and since she didn't know Princess Fu'an's taste, she simply didn't send them.

The whole basket weighs about fifty pounds.

They feared that the messenger, carrying a fast horse, would be jostled about, causing the contents inside to collide.

She carefully placed the peaches, rose grapes, and sapphires separately in small baskets, then put them in a bamboo box and hung them on either side of the horse's belly.

If it can be delivered within five days, it should be undamaged.

Just after seeing the messenger off, they met the person sent by You Xinyue to deliver a message.

People from Luoshui Palace have arrived.

However, no trouble ensued, and one of the guardians from the other side expressed his desire to see Yun Zhiyi.

Yun Zhiyi was not surprised.

She sent Fu Yuanbo to oversee the vegetable shop, where he would demonstrate his skills, not only to intimidate the martial arts figures in the city at the time.

This was also to make the Luoshui Palace hesitant to cause trouble as soon as they arrived.

Luo Shuixian is currently still imprisoned in the Liao family's dungeon. She had almost forgotten about it until the people from Luoshui Palace came.

She refused to meet him and instead wrote a letter to the messenger, asking her to return it to You Xinyue.

After everyone left.

A shadow flashed to the side, and two unconscious disciples of the Luoshui Palace fell to the ground.

He clearly came with the messenger.

Yun Zhiyi sneered, used her supernatural power to seal the meridians of the two people, and then handed them to Fu Tingchen.

Let him take me to Daqingshan to plant fruit trees together.

July's scorching heat has ended in the blink of an eye, and August is slowly approaching.

Yunsufang and Qiongluge have finally opened for business.

Two firecrackers went off early in the morning, and red paper fluttered like butterflies.

Passersby who were drawn to the signboard only glanced at it.

I didn't know what they were selling for a moment.

Unlike Wei Man Zhai, neither of the two buildings had all their doors open, allowing people to see the inside at a glance.

Only the main gate in the middle is open right now.

You can only see what they sell inside by going inside.

Yun Zhiyi also came to help today, and she and Lu Jingyi each took charge of one store.

They didn't advertise this time, so not many people went in at first.

However, after only half an incense stick's time, carriages began to stop at the shop entrance.

As soon as Wei Man Zhai opened its doors to welcome guests, the first batch of guests who had been prepared in advance were already seated.

Then I saw that there were also snacks and a small bowl of red bean curd pudding served before the meal.

The guest was amused and casually asked a question.

"Hey, you released a new product today?"
