Chapter 828: A Chance Encounter on the Street

en a whisper gets out, must these villagers bear the infamy of murder and robbery for life just because they did a good deed"Young Master Ye was not polite at all. His words were like ice shards, maki...The mischievous little boy, Le, was so excited he had a runny nose. After receiving the pears, he politely bowed and thanked them before tucking them into his pocket. Then, with his chest puffed out, he carried the chicken and mushroom soup and skipped away merrily.

Li Laotai and the others were tickled by the mischievous boy's antics, laughing heartily as they walked into the old house. Only then did Li Laotai realize her granddaughter was still trailing behind them.

Not a single person recognized it!

Old Mrs. Li wasn't good at keeping her word, so she could only say: "If you want to go into the city, go ahead. But you have to be back in two hours!"

Jiāyīn cheered and jumped up!

Soon, Jia Ren, Li Ge'er, as well as Lu Zong and Jia Xu all heard the news and hurriedly dressed up, preparing to follow in a car to be "flower protectors".

Jia Yin carefully repaired her disguise once more, striving for realism. Only then did she follow her brothers onto the carriage.

To avoid arousing suspicion, she didn't even bring Shuiling and Shuiyun.

Fortunately, Jiarren let Zheng Sanjiang stay by his sister's side, and Ye Shan also jumped onto the carriage.

They were always by her side, and even if they were discovered, they probably wouldn't be able to harm Jia Yin.

Moreover, Lu Zong also brought twenty guards...

The carriage drove out of the village, and Jia Yin, like a bird released from its cage, pushed open a small gap in the car window and looked around excitedly.

Jia Ren and Lu Cong were laughing until they got to the city gate, then they finally pulled her back.

The shops of the Liu and Wang families were located in a section that wasn't the most bustling part of the commercial street, but it wasn't bad either.

Starting from the first shop on Commercial Street, it is exactly the fifth and sixth ones.

If you get off the carriage at the street corner, it's just a few dozen steps to get there.

Wang's shop was a single-story building with three neat storefronts and a large courtyard behind it.

It can accommodate people on a daily basis and also store some grains, oil, and dry goods.

The Liu family's shop next door was a two-story building. The first floor sold fabrics, and the second floor was a tailoring shop where they could custom-make clothes.

The two-story building occupied a larger area, so the backyard was naturally smaller. However, it still had a kitchen, a well, and three main rooms that could be inhabited.

Jia Yin originally wanted to connect the two shops, selling fresh produce on the first floor and hot pot or barbecue on the second.

But after taking a walk around, she changed her mind.

It's better to turn the three shops into a fruit and vegetable specialty store, and the two-story building next door into a barbecue hotpot restaurant.

Thus, fruit and vegetable shops may have a lighter business during the summer, but they will make a lot of money in winter.

A restaurant that specializes in both grilling and hot pot offers grilled skewers and various marinated snacks and cold dishes during summer. In winter, it serves hot pot or barbecue.

Whether it's winter or summer, as soon as a small wind blows, the fragrance wafts up, and everyone's mouth waters. Money flows into the cash box like water...

Seeing his younger sister standing in the yard, drooling and giggling idiotically, Jia Ren quickly stepped forward to block her. He whispered, "Funiu, what are you thinking about Hurry up and measure and inspect. Once we're done, we'll head home."

Jia Yin quickly wiped her mouth and looked around. Sure enough, there were no outsiders. She took her older brother's arm and smiled: "Brother, these two shops will definitely be our family's treasure trove in the future!"

Jia Ren couldn't help but laugh at his sister's greed, but he still gently pinched her nose and corrected her, "This is your lucky money purse, not our family's."

"This shop now belongs to you. In the future, we won't be able to help with your business anymore. Any money you make will, of course, be yours."

"Don't even think about dividing it among us again. Keep it for yourself, you can put it in your dowry list when you get married later."

Jia Yin smiled cheerfully but said nothing.

The shop may be hers, but the silver earned still needs to be used to buy some good things for her brother as a thank-you gift.

Without my brothers going to the poetry meeting, there wouldn't be these two shops.

However, it's not appropriate to argue about these things out here. We can talk about them at home later.

Lu Zong and Jia Xu were also wandering around, listening to the conversation between Jia Ren's siblings, and they couldn't help but envy them.

They also have siblings in their family. Although they never harmed each other, there was competition when it came to matters of legitimacy, inheritance, and the favoritism of their elders...

When you argue too much, you can't get close to each other.

Like siblings Li, who are friendly and respectful to each other, they can only think about it, but they can't reach...

After spending half a day, Jiayin finally finished inspecting both shops.

She tucked the notebook into her pocket and, with a mischievous grin, said to her brothers, "Today you guys followed me all over, didn't you Come on, let's go home for dinner. I'll cook two delicious dishes myself!"

Meow Brother was the first to cheer, "Great! I'm going to have meat! My legs have gotten so thin these past few days, I need to replenish myself."

Everyone burst into laughter. Lu Cong spoke up in defense, "Your leg was always thin; don't blame your sister for it."

Jia Ren instructed Zheng Liu to tidy up the carriage and check the shop for anything left behind. Then, with everyone in tow, he walked out.

Jia Yin bent over and returned to her maidservant appearance, following her brothers behind.

Everyone chatted and laughed as they left the door. Zheng Sanjiang deftly locked both shops.

Something must have happened over there on the corner, it attracted a crowd of people to gather and the noise was quite loud.

Jia Yin, out of curiosity, stood on the stairs and glanced around.

As a result, she didn't see anything exciting, but she heard someone next to her whisper a question.

"Jia Yin sister"

Jia Yin jumped in surprise, turning her head to see Bao Zhu accompanied by a maidservant, standing just a few steps away.

Perhaps having finally come to terms with it, Baozhu threw the maid aside and excitedly ran forward.

She pulled Jia Yin's hand in surprise, her voice hushed as she asked, "Jia Yin sister, how come you're dressed as a maidservant I almost didn't recognize you!"

Jia Yin rolled her eyes, turned her head to look around to make sure there was no one suspicious, then pulled Baozhu and stood behind her brothers.

She whispered, "You're blaming me Didn't you disguise yourself as a maidservant too What's going on, did you also sneak out"

Bao Zhu giggled shyly, touching her nose. "My mother doesn't let me come out to play. I really couldn't help it, so I had to pretend to be a maidservant and sneak out to buy some delicious food, then rush back before my mother found out!"

Jiao Yin looked around. This wasn't a good place to talk. She said to Jia Ren, "Big brother, let's go back to the shop and sit for a while. There are too many people here."

Jia Ren nodded, and everyone opened the shop door and then went back.

In the backyard of a two-story building, those three main rooms near the back alley had all their tables, chairs, and benches left behind. It could serve as a temporary place to rest.

Jia Yin tugged at Bao Zhu's clothes, her eyes full of helplessness.

"You're trying to pretend to be a maidservant, and you do it rather well."

"Whose servant girl made clothes out of silk"

"Also, does the servant have any golden earrings "

"Is the servant girl this white, plump and clean"

The bead was tugged a little, making her giggle as she ducked and dodged, quickly begging for mercy.

"Oh, come on, Jia Yin sister, don't be so serious! I'm just out having fun, not doing anything bad!"

"Even if people recognize me as a girl, it's fine. In broad daylight, who could possibly kidnap me"

Having said that, she changed the subject and asked, "Sister Jiayin, my mother said you were hiding at home to avoid disaster. How did you come out I was even going to buy some delicious food to have delivered to you!"

After she finished speaking, she hugged Jiayin coquettishly, but her stomach started to rumble.

Like a contagious feeling, Jia Yin's tummy soon rumbled as well.

Then there's Cat Brother's, Brother Li's...

Jia Ren laughed and said, "I see a row of stalls selling snacks in the back alley. Why don't we buy a few bowls of wonton or something to fill our stomachs first"

Before the words even landed, a vendor's call rang out from outside the courtyard wall, "Fresh meat dumplings! Just made, fresh meat dumplings!"

At that moment, Meow-er jumped up and exclaimed, "I'll go buy it!"

Jia Ren instructed, "Bring Zheng Sishu along and be careful."t to play""Father, my second brother is getting married, I'm going to buy bangles for grandma!" Jiayin said seriously, her chubby little face unusually solemn.The Lord doesn't understand what the litt...
