Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1521 - 328, What a moron! (Third Watch)_2
Chapter 1521: 328, What a moron! (Third Watch)_2
Indeed, she guessed right!
Xiao Linshuang pouted, a look of disgust on her face, but the slightly upturned corners of her lips still betrayed her mood at the moment: "That blockhead, after going back, stuffed every herb he could find into his mouth, eating whatever edible and smearing on whatever not! Oh, so many of our herbs have properties that can augment or counteract each other, what good can come from that blockhead applying a mishmash of herbs to himself?"
"Hmph, his whole body ballooned up a size, and his face is covered with Big Pimples. I only made it so he couldn’t speak, but after he gobbled up all that nonsense and came back, not only could he not speak, but even his eyes became somewhat blind, and his ears, one could hear while the other couldn’t! Ah, that blockhead, that blockhead!"
Seeing Xiao Linshuang’s heartache mixed with disgust, Lin Yuan finally understood why she did not want to take Wen Jingming as an apprentice. With such a troublesome disciple by her side, she would either be worked to death or angered to death in the future!
However, seeing Xiao Linshuang being challenged by the Wen father and son, Lin Yuan felt it was definitely not just these two people.
"Apart from these two, are there others who have come to challenge you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Linshuang looked at Lin Yuan with a long-live-the-understanding gaze, almost bursting into tears with excitement: "Big sister, you are so smart! Those old guys from the Imperial Medical Bureau aren’t attending to the ladies of the court and all of them came to Book Pavilion. Today they asked me about the properties of herbs, tomorrow they come to ask me for detoxification. Oh dear, if it were really tough and complicated cases it’d be fine, but the problems they come to me with are all things that can be found in books!"
After speaking, Xiao Linshuang continued to grumble resentfully: "Don’t the ladies in the palace fall ill? These fellows earn high salaries and just idly wander around in the palace every day, does the Emperor not care about them?"
Lin Yuan shrugged, turned her head away somewhat speechlessly. The Imperial Physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau were really too idle; otherwise, Doctor Wen wouldn’t have had to wait three days to come and concede defeat to her. Perhaps he would have come the same day!
Having encountered so many incidents in one visit to the Frost Pavilion, Lin Yuan no longer had the interest to check out the new ointments and took Shui Xian back to Dong Tian.
Once Lin Yuan had left, Xiao Linshuang sat in her little room, thinking this way and that, then abruptly slapped the table and exclaimed "Hey", startling Du Ruo, who stared at her in shock.
Xiao Linshuang narrowed her eyes and chuckled: "That Rouge Store’s owner is looking for people to cause trouble in our store, huh? Hehe, originally we were just making ointments, no hindrance to them, but now they’re deliberately provoking me, so I won’t be polite anymore. Du Ruo, let’s also develop our own rouge and face powder! I don’t believe that my products can’t outdo theirs!"
Du Ruo was shocked, but then got caught up in the excitement. Many customers had already asked about rouge and face powder, and previously the miss thought it was a hassle. Now that the miss was willing to research it, they would surely make a big profit! As for those who overestimated themselves coming to make trouble, just wait for them to be infuriated to death! freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Back in Dong Tian, Shopkeeper Liu immediately came to greet her, saying that the recruitment for the tea house was nearly complete, but he didn’t know Lin Yuan’s requirements, so it would be best for Lin Yuan to personally oversee the final interviews.
Lin Yuan nodded. Since she had opened the tea house in cooperation with Tian Hui, it was only right that she should also go and have a look.
With that in mind, Lin Yuan asked Shui Xian to send a message to Tian Hui at the General Mansion, inviting her to visit the tea house together the next day.
The next morning, Lin Yuan arrived at the tea house bright and early. The decoration of the tea house had taken shape after a few days, especially the platforms on the first and second floors, which had their main frameworks up, just needing some beautification.
Lin Yuan thought Tian Hui would arrive very late, but to her surprise, Tian Hui arrived shortly after she did.
As soon as Tian Hui saw Lin Yuan, she couldn’t help but purse her lips in laughter, with Lin Yuan feeling somewhat puzzled.
Tian Hui gave her a slanted look, teasing her: "That day, as soon as Ah Zheng returned to the mansion, he excitedly told mother about the engagement. Don’t tell me you didn’t know!"
So that was the reason.
Lin Yuan’s cheeks suddenly flushed with two patches of red, and she awkwardly let out a couple of dry laughs: "That matter, hehe, yes, I know."
"Look at you, all embarrassed now!"
Tian Hui covered her mouth in amusement: "Ah Zheng has said it, he must prepare the best, very best betrothal gifts for you. Yuanyuan, don’t say your sister-in-law hasn’t been good to you. Ah Zheng has quite a few treasures on hand, so you must keep your eyes peeled, and don’t let him hide away any private savings!"
