Lin Ruan led the people to a tea room in the backyard.

Liang Twelve and the other brocade guards were left outside, and Lin Ruan followed Xiao Jingchen into the tea room alone.

There is a large ice basin in the tea room, and it is very cool inside.

Xiao Jingchen glanced at the ice basin: "I wanted to ask you last time, where did you get the ice?" ”

He was very clear about Lin Ruan's situation, she didn't store ice, and now in this season, even if she had silver, she couldn't buy ice, so he was very curious about the origin of these ices.

Lin Ruan didn't hide it: "It's made." ”

Xiao Jingchen looked at her with some surprise: "Made?" ”

Lin Ruan nodded: "Yes, I accidentally found that saltpeter powder melts in the water, as long as the amount is enough, it can make the water freeze." That's why I came up with the idea of opening such a store. Didn't Feifu and Luohua tell Xiao Ye about this matter? ”

Xiao Jingchen glanced at her: "You don't mind this very much?" ”

Lin Ruan was stunned, she never seemed to have said that she minded this. When she quarreled with Liang Twelve before, she didn't say a word about her suspicion of being watched by Jinyiwei.

Why would he know?

Xiao Jingchen sat down on the chair of the main seat and said lightly: "I asked Ding Rui to guard you in secret, not to monitor, but to arrange it that way for fear that something would happen to you." ”

Lin Ruan was surprised, was this deliberately explaining to her?

So he hurriedly said, "Thank you Xiao Ye." ”

Xiao Jingchen snorted, raised his hand and slapped it twice.

Soon, a few brocade guards came in with a few things covered in black cloth, and as soon as the black cloth was opened, there were some wilted sweet potatoes inside.

Xiao Jingchen said: "After digging out of the ground in your backyard, I ordered someone to plant them in pots, but they were still affected. ”

Lin Ruan took a closer look at the pots of sweet potatoes and found that they were not a big problem, but they were suddenly dug out of the ground and planted into this pot, so they looked listless.

So he smiled and said: "Xiao Ye doesn't have to worry, the vitality of sweet potatoes is tenacious, this is just a move, so I don't fit in, and in a few days, it will return to normal." ”

Xiao Jingchen nodded after hearing this: "That's fine, how are you here?" Are you ready to leave for Beijing? ”

Lin Ruan glanced outside, thought for a while, and said, "It should be no problem to set off tomorrow." ”

She still has to look at the store's profitability tonight, as well as adjust some of the store's merchandise.

Xiao Jingchen responded very well, got up and said, "I'll go to Hefu, and tomorrow morning, I'll pick you up directly at your house." ”

Lin Ruan blessed his body: "Xiao Ye walks slowly." ”

After sending the people away, Lin Ruan realized that Xiao Jingchen was reporting her whereabouts just now?

But why did he report it to her?

Could it be that Xiao Jingchen is really different from her?

Lin Ruan hurriedly shook his head, what are you thinking! What kind of person is Xiao Jingchen? What would be different for a country girl like her?

But a picture suddenly popped up in her mind, Xiao Jingchen sat in the carriage with her, and used internal force to help her warm her lower abdomen......

Lin Ruan's heart suddenly messed up, why would such a cold person make such a move?

Did he really do something to her?

As soon as this idea came out, Lin Ruan strangled him to death.

She felt that Xiao Jingchen was indeed a little special to her, but this was especially because she was valuable in her own right. She saved him, helped him, made her a telescope, and planted that sweet potato. All of her things are of great value to Xiao Jingchen and even to the entire Great Zhou. As long as someone with a little brain can think of it, her value will definitely not be limited to this.

Therefore, Xiao Jingchen is special to her, and it is very likely that it is for her value.

Lin Ruan felt that his idea was correct, so he felt a lot more relieved.

stayed in the store until the night closed, and Lin Ruan asked people to settle the accounts.

Chunyu carefully calculated twice with the abacus, and said excitedly: "Big girl, our profit today is nearly sixty taels of silver." ”

This is only the first day, because the time is too tight, so Lin Ruan did not advertise all over the street like the previous hot pot restaurant, before the spring rain they were all prepared that today's business would not be too good, but they didn't expect that today's business was hot beyond their expectations.

The shop was full all the time, and there was a long queue at the take-out window, and several cooks were so tired that they couldn't lift their hands.

Lin Ruan was quite satisfied with this result, nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard today, but in the next few days, I am afraid that it will be more tiring." However, it would be good to wait for the ice storage to be built, and then you can prepare some ice and desserts in advance and store them in the freezer. ”

The opening time is too rushed, so the freezer has not been completed until now.

Lin Ruan originally wanted to prepare something in advance, but now all the plans have been disrupted.

She went to Kyoto this time, and it is estimated that it will take about half a month at the earliest, so she can only open it first.

Thinking of this messy situation, Lin Ruan had a little headache, summoned Yang San'er over, and said to him:

"I'm leaving for Kyoto tomorrow, and you have to keep an eye on the things in the store. Chunyu and Xia He are the girls' family in the end, and they may not be able to handle some emergencies well, so you can help them in the back. In addition, the matter of the ice storage is tightened, and you should pay more attention to the chef's side. I'm afraid that after I'm gone, the third prince will do something. ”

Yang San'er wrote them down one by one: "The big girl and go to Kyoto with peace of mind, the small one will definitely take care of the store and promise not to let anything happen in the store." ”

Lin Ruan nodded: "I believe you have this ability, San'er, you've worked hard these days." Today's things in the store, the performance is good, I'll give you a bonus when I go back. ”

Yang San'er received Lin Ruan's praise, and suddenly there was a smile in her eyes: "The big girl doesn't have to give bonuses to the little ones, these are the things that the little ones should do." ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "Well done, that must be rewarded, when I come back from Kyoto, you will go home to see your mother, you have been in Huaiyang Mansion for a few months, she also thinks you think badly." ”

Yang San'er is a dutiful son, and when he thinks of his wife, he suddenly has red eyes. It's the first time he's been away from home for so long. But when he thinks about what he's doing now, he thinks it's all worth it.

So he blinked his eyes and said: "My mother has a big girl to take care of, and I can rest assured outside, my mother told me, let me follow the big girl well, don't worry about her." ”

Lin Ruan saw the red look in his eyes just now, and smiled: "San'er is not too young, it's time to think about getting married, you have your own favorite girl, if you have, I will find a matchmaker to propose marriage for you." If not, tell me what kind of marriage you want to marry, and when I come back from Kyoto, I will help you with your family affairs. After getting married, with your daughter-in-law accompanying your mother, you will feel more at ease outside. ”
