Chapter 83 Traveling in a Low Profile
Qinghe quickly brought out the jade dumplings. The dumplings were crystal clear, just like jade, making one want to take a bite.
Yun Juan couldn't wait to pick up a dumpling and put it in her mouth. With a gentle bite, a rich and savory aroma immediately spread in her mouth.
The dumpling wrappers are chewy and springy, while the filling is fresh and juicy, creating distinct layers of flavor.
Yun Quan couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this is really delicious!"
She savored the delicious dumplings with a satisfied smile.
Qinghe was very happy to see that her young mistress liked it so much!
"Qinghe, do you really enjoy cooking?" Yun Juan looked up and asked Qinghe, who was standing next to her. Qinghe was taken aback by the question!
But he quickly realized what he was doing and nodded vigorously!
"Hmm... I really enjoy seeing the satisfied expressions on everyone's faces after eating the food I make," Qinghe replied with a smile.
Yun Juan nodded thoughtfully. "Have you ever thought about opening a restaurant?"
Qinghe looked up in surprise, "Can I?"
"Of course! Your cooking skills are so good, you're sure to be popular with everyone," Yun Juan encouraged. "Besides, you can also open a restaurant so that more people can enjoy your food."
A flicker of excitement crossed Qinghe's eyes, but it quickly dimmed. "But I don't have that much money... and I still have to serve Miss, how can I do anything else! Miss, please don't tease me!"
Yun Juan smiled. "It's alright, we can figure it out together. The main thing is I want to open a restaurant! After all, it'll be a source of income, and Qinghe, you really enjoy researching food! I can also leave the teahouse to you..."
Upon hearing this, Qinghe felt a glimmer of hope. "Thank you, Miss! I will think it over carefully."
The two ate dumplings while discussing their plans to open a shop, creating a harmonious and warm atmosphere.
Yun Juan quickly realized that she hadn't seen Qing Miao for a long time. Could something have happened?
"By the way, Qinghe, why haven't I seen Qingmiao for so long? Why are you the only one in the courtyard lately?" Yun Juan frowned.
"Miss, it's like this! Manager Bai came looking for you that day, but you weren't at the manor. The shop has been too busy lately, and Qingmiao happens to be good at accounting, so Manager Bai pulled her to the shop!" Qinghe slapped her forehead, remembering that Bai Yulan had told her to tell her mistress that day, but she had completely forgotten about it!
"What is Bai Yulan busy with? Doing accounting? Oh, right! Qingmiao seems to be quite good at accounting!" Yun Juan suddenly remembered that her mother had mentioned Qingmiao's good accounting skills when she brought her over!
"Miss, Manager Bai seems to have been busy tending to the medicinal herbs lately!" Qinghe lowered her head and reported truthfully to Yun Juan.
Upon hearing this, Yun Juan paused for four or five seconds, then realized that she happened to have nothing to do today, so she could go and take a look at the shop!
I've been so busy dealing with Yun Rong lately that I've completely forgotten about how busy things are at the shop!
"Qinghe, come on, let's change our clothes! Let's go to the shop today! It's been so long since we've been!" Yun Juan stretched after eating and drinking her fill.
They quickly put on a simple dress, the color of which was plain and simple, without any gorgeous decorations or embellishments.
Even her hair was simply tied up and casually secured with a ribbon of the same color as her dress.
Before leaving, they put on a white veil to cover their faces.
Such attire makes them look ordinary, but it exudes a mysterious and understated aura.
It seems that beneath this simple exterior lie endless stories and secrets waiting to be revealed.
The two then quietly entered the shop.
When they entered the store, they found Bai Yulan was extremely busy, warmly greeting each customer.
Her face was beaming with a bright smile, and her voice was clear and melodious, captivating all who heard it.
Beside the counter, Qingmiao was intently recording the accounts, each stroke of her pen showing exceptional care.
Yun Quan and Qing He quietly went to the back to observe the situation in the shop.
Seeing the shop's thriving business, Yun Juan was secretly pleased.
Just then, Bai Yulan noticed them and quickly came over. "Miss, what brings you here?"
Yun Juan smiled and said, "I came to check on the shop's situation and help out while I'm at it."
Not long after, a commotion arose from the surroundings.
Yun Juan listened intently, and it took her a while to roughly understand the meaning!
The woman looked at the clothes in the store, and suddenly her eyes lit up as she took a fancy to a beautiful dress.
However, before she could ask any questions, another woman, also a legitimate daughter, came over, took a liking to the dress, and quickly paid for it.
This sudden turn of events caught the woman, who was initially overjoyed, off guard. She couldn't help but feel dissatisfied, and since the two already knew each other, they started arguing in the store!
This can hardly be called an argument; it's a one-sided crushing defeat!
The girl who stood to the side silently paying the money never spoke, but just kept her head down, as if she were detached from the matter.
However, the other girl standing opposite her appeared particularly arrogant and domineering, as if she felt she had the upper hand.
As time went on, the girl became increasingly agitated and her words became more and more intense. In the end, she even pointed her finger at the other person's nose and started cursing at him without any restraint!
"You bitch, how dare you try to steal from me!" The woman cursed more and more fiercely, attracting the attention of those around her.
Yun Juan had no intention of making a move! She stood aside in the crowd and watched the battle unfold!
"Hmph! Your short-lived mother is dead! No one's backing you up anymore! Now my mother calls the shots in this mansion! You'd better give me your skirt! Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble when we get back!" The girl looked at the girl opposite her with an arrogant expression and disdain.
The girl clutched her dress tightly with one hand, as if it were her last refuge; her other hand was clenched tightly below, with veins bulging, as if she was trying her best to control the turbulent emotions inside her.
Her eyes revealed a deep pain and helplessness, as if she were being suppressed by an invisible force and unable to release it.
The flamboyant girl seemed unsatisfied and continued to hurl insults!
Yun Juan understood at this moment. This wasn't about a dress; it was a family matter!
It's another story of favoring a concubine over the wife. It turns out that the young girl's arrogance came from her scumbag father!
Yun Juan thought, "That's right! How could a mere girl, at such a young age, say such vicious things?"
So it turns out the concubine took over, and the scumbag father didn't care at all!
