After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 191 Xibao’s letter

A woman who came late and failed to buy some clearance food stamped her foot, "Oh, I'm late again!"

Seeing Cai Hehua knocking on the door, she kindly reminded her, "Stop shooting. They've already closed their doors. No matter how much you try to knock on them, they won't open the door. You'd better get early tomorrow."

Cai Hehua grabbed the woman and asked, "Let me ask you something, is this shop owned by the Lin family?"

The woman pointed to the plaque above: "Isn't it written on it? Lin's Fried Food Shop is, of course, opened by the Lin family.

"The brothers and sisters of the Lin family are very powerful. They opened such a big store at such a young age. The business is booming. I don't know how much money they can make in a day. It's really enviable."

Cai Hehua was shocked. This store was actually owned by the Lin family!
Make a lot of money in one day!
How is this possible!
Where did the Lin family get the money to open the shop?

The woman gossiped mysteriously: "You know the Qianhai Gang, right? The Lin family has a good relationship with the Qianhai Gang.

"Boss Xiao specially sent someone to guard the shop. If anyone dares to make trouble, Boss Xiao will deal with that person.

"With Qianhai's help, Lin Ji's business is getting bigger and bigger, and many passing vendors come to her store to buy food.

"There are also some vendors who come to buy goods and walk around the streets carrying fried dough sticks and twists..."

As the woman spoke, the envy in her eyes almost solidified.

But Cai Hehua listened, but her eyes were red with jealousy.

She turned back and stared at the front of the shop, feeling as if there were thousands of ants gnawing at her, wishing she could take over the shop and make it her own.

Um?Maybe it works.

The Lin family's children have no father or mother, leaving only their own relatives.

Of course, her aunt had to make plans for them to prevent them from losing all the money they earned.

Backyard, main room.

The Lin family got together for lunch.

Lin Chunniang gave Er Xi a big chicken drumstick: "Eat this, it's delicious."

Lin Dayou served Er Xi a bowl of pork ribs and fish noodles, "Er Xi, eat more, I see you have lost weight."

Yu Niang brought Er Xi a bowl of fragrant soy milk, "Second brother, drink the soy milk."

Sanfu also kept adding vegetables to Erxi's bowl.

As for Cui Niang, she is not in the store, but staying at home. It is her turn to rest today.

Erxi looked at the bowl that was almost full and quickly covered it with his hands, "That's enough, that's enough, you can eat too, don't worry about me."

The family finished the meal in a lively manner and worked together to clean the store. Sanfu was left to look after the store while the others took the boat home.

The boat was newly purchased, and it was larger than the original boat. It was easy for a family of seven to sit on it, and it could also be used to transport goods.

Lin Chunniang held the boat skillfully, "Erxi, how many days can you stay at home when you come back this time?"

Erxi: "I can stay for two days, so I asked the shopkeeper for an extra day off."

Yu Niang played with the nine-link ring brought back to her by her second brother, "Second brother, how about you quit your job in the restaurant and come back to open a shop with us?"

Lin Chunniang: "This is a good idea. It prevents you from running back and forth, and you may not be able to come back even once a month. It's better for the family to stay together."

Erxi: "Sister, I also want to come back and stay with you, but I prefer to work outside and open a restaurant by myself in the future."

Lin Dayou understands his younger brother very well on this point, because he also hopes to go out and have some adventures one day instead of staying in the village or town all the time.

It's just that Er Xi has already walked out. If he leaves too and leaves Ajie and the other three girls home, he won't worry.

Lin Chunniang: "If you like to work outside, then continue working in the restaurant. Come back whenever you want."

Erxi said "Yes" movedly.

Only in front of his family can he truly relax, without having to put on a mask and say things that go against his will.

After returning home, Erxi greeted Xiao Hei who rushed towards him enthusiastically and rubbed his head.

In the main room, Cui Niang put down her embroidery work and came up to him in surprise, "Second brother, are you back? Sit down quickly." She took the bundle from his hand.

Erxi looked around, "Where is Xibao? Isn't he back yet?"

Cui Niang poured a cup of tea for everyone, "Not yet, it's been almost a month, and I don't know how Xibao is doing in the capital, or if he misses us."

She missed Xibao.

Since Xibao came to their home, she had never been separated from her for such a long time.

Lin Chunniang laughed and scolded: "This little heartless kid originally said he would come back in a few days, but he hasn't come back yet. I'm afraid he got wild from playing outside."

While the family was talking, a female voice came from outside the courtyard door: "Is anyone home?"

Lin Chunniang: "The voice sounds familiar. I'll go take a look."

Standing outside the door was a woman in her early twenties, wearing a lilac skirt and a gentle and beautiful face.

There were two maids standing behind them, and a magnificent carriage parked behind them.

Lin Chunniang: "Are you...ah, I remember, Aunt Xue who is next to Young Master Lin?"

Qin Xue smiled and nodded at her, "It's me, Miss Lin."

"Please come in quickly." Lin Chunniang welcomed the person in and shouted into the room: "We have a distinguished guest!"

After some pleasantries, Qin Xue explained his purpose: "I'm here to deliver a message for the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince and Xibao have already left the capital and are on their way back, but not by water, but by land.

"There may be some delays on the road, but we will be back before April [-]th at the latest.

"In addition, this is a letter written by Xibao to you. There are several boxes of gifts sent with the letter."

Qin Xue handed over a box containing a letter and signaled to a maid behind her.

The maid went out to deliver the message, and the coachman waiting outside brought in several boxes from the car.

"The letter and gifts have been delivered, so I won't leave them any more. I'll say goodbye." Qin Xue bowed.

Lin Chunniang didn't try to persuade her to stay, she just said: "I'll give it to you."

She watched Qin Xue get on the carriage, put down the curtain, and then turned around.

In the room, the letter box was opened by Yu Niang.

She took out the letter and handed it to the elder sister who entered the room.

Under the gaze of her younger brothers and sisters, Lin Chunniang opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, opened it and read it.

"Chun Niang, Cui Niang, Yu Niang, Dayou, Erxi, Sanfu, what do you miss me? I miss you."

Just this sentence made everyone in the Lin family smile.

"I'm in the capital..."

He talked for a long time about what he saw, what he ate, and what he bought in the capital.

It's like a travel diary written by a primary school student.

However, the Lin family listened with great interest, smiled knowingly from time to time, and did not feel bored at all.

On the last page, Lin Xi got down to business.

"You go to the Xiling Architectural Office in the county seat to place an order and find someone to come to the village to build two public toilets and a square. The drawings are attached to the letter.

“After the public toilets and square were built, we hired craftsmen to erect a stone monument and engraved this incident on the stone monument to let people know that the Lin family paid for the construction.

"Go to the town to find Xiao Qi from the Qianhai Gang and ask him to invite a troupe and jugglers to perform in the village square every ten days, attracting people from nearby villages and towns to come to the village for the market.

"Before that, you can discuss with the village chief and set up a committee in the village to be responsible for managing market-related affairs."
