Chapter 1084: My Sister-in-law's Combat Power is Explos

She was still a bit nervous, after all, it was her first time giving birth.But the aunts were almost always around, talking to her.Now that she's being taken care of so carefully, she feels even more...Ms. Chen's face was pale and green, wishing time could rewind so she could sew her cousin's mouth shut.

But it was too late for that now, regret wouldn't change anything.

The last time she went home, her father had already scolded her severely and kept her confined indoors for a long time.

If it weren't for the selection of a concubine, she wouldn't have had the chance to step out of her home!

"Princess Kangle, it's true that we were gossiping behind your back, and that was wrong of us. But your servant is too unruly! Coming up here and cursing people like that, is this the upbringing of your Li family!"

"Or is it that the Li family has become so arrogant, that even a slave is more noble than I, an official's daughter!"

It has to be said, Ms. Chen has definitely made progress. She really spoke up for herself and earned some points.

Just as Jia Yin was about to retort, Wan'er had already stood by her side.

"Miss Chen, since we're comparing status, my sister is a county princess with a title and land. Isn't she more distinguished than you You still dare to insult her at will"

As for being uncultured, the Chen family's upbringing probably isn't much better!

After all, our servants lack education, and we can forgive them. But for a daughter of a high-ranking official to be uneducated is simply laughable. The Chen family has money to buy jewelry for their daughters, surely they have enough to hire a governess

"Just now, Miss Chen kept saying that you're going to be the Crown Princess! If I remember correctly, the selection of a princess hasn't even started yet Did your Chen family control the Emperor and the Prince, deciding beforehand"

Control the Royals

"No, I didn't!" Ms. Chen stammered, her lips trembling in fear. Even a fool could tell that she couldn't possibly be blamed for this; if she were, not only would her own life be ruined, but the entire Chen family would be disgraced as well.

Wan'er didn't care how she was, laughing more and more sarcastically.

Miss Chen should go to the clinic for a checkup. At her age, she can't even remember what she said. It seems like her condition is quite serious.

"To know the basic conditions for selecting a concubine is that she must be in good health. Miss Chen, like this, would even be charged with deceiving the emperor if she entered the palace!"

Miss Chen stomped her foot in anger. This daughter-in-law of the Li family was even crueler than the county princess; in the blink of an eye, she had pinned two charges against her.

She didn't know what to say next.

So, enduring her anger and fear, she loudly called out to her cousin and the maidservants.

"Let us go, and not concern ourselves with these barbarians!"

Having said that, she was the first to flee in panic.

Her cousin glared unwillingly at Jia Yin and the others, then hurried away with the maidservants.

Jia Yin hugged her sister-in-law's arm, her eyes shining with admiration.

"Sister-in-law, you're amazing! Your combat power is off the charts!"

"Silly little sister, what strange things are you saying again!" Waner didn't understand what "exploding" meant, but she was also coaxed into laughing by her younger cousin.

When you're out there, I'm not good enough. Now that you're here beside me, right in front of me, if I let someone bully you again, how can I ever face your grandma and aunt

Wan'er patted her sister's hand and turned back to look at the embarrassed shopkeeper and clerk, smiling. "Shopkeeper, I'm really sorry for the trouble I've caused you."

"So, we've made our selections. Please calculate the total for us. We won't haggle. Consider this a gift to you as thanks for making a sale today."

"Oh, no, no!" the old shopkeeper hurriedly bowed. "Mistress is too kind. It's my fault for not entertaining you well and causing you and the County Lady to be startled."

"Well then, this old man will offer you a 10% discount as a sign of goodwill. In the future, I hope that Madam and Miss will continue to patronize my humble business!"

Thus, both the buyer and seller valued harmony above all else, and as a result, the matter was resolved smoothly.

Soon, Jiayin and her sister-in-law paid the bill. Grandma He and others took their things and left the shop.

The onlookers who had hoped for a bigger commotion were left disappointed.

Shuiling was worried that the ice cream in the box would melt, so she flew ahead to Baiyun.

Jia Yin and Wan'er and the others were not slow to follow, for there was no other reason than that the midday sun was too hot.

Watercloud glanced at He Mama's cold face and wiped sweat from her younger sister's forehead. The gluttonous little fool could only pray for the best.

Although she just stepped up for her master, she also acted without authorization.

She couldn't avoid being scolded by Grandma He when she got home...

Shuiling was completely unaware of her previous mistake. She rushed into the backyard of Baiyun Guan as soon as she entered, shouting, "I'm so hot, I'm so hot! Miss and Madam have arrived, shopkeeper Peng, quickly prepare the room!"

Manager Peng was already plump, and in the summer heat it was unbearable. Business at his shop was booming like never before.

He was drenched in sweat at this point, and when he heard his master approaching, he quickly ordered the boy to prepare the guest room in the backyard. He had multiple ice basins set up, and had freshly prepared ice cream and snacks.

As soon as Jia Yin and Wan'er, along with the others, entered the room, they were greeted by a wave of cold air. They all let out long sighs of relief.

Wan'er wiped her forehead with a handkerchief, frowned and sighed, "Sister, it seems... the rain won't come today. Will this year truly be a complete failure"

Jiayin was also restless in her heart, and replied, "I don't know either. If it continues to be dry, that would be good, but I'm afraid that after summer, the rain will start again and there will be floods. Then it will truly be a disaster."

Then Peng, the shopkeeper, smiled and stepped forward, holding a teapot filled with sour plum soup. He personally poured two cups and advised, “Madam Shao, Princess, matters of heaven are beyond our mortal control. We can only rely on his old man's disposition.”

"You guys should try our shop's new iced plum soup. It's selling like hotcakes, we can't keep up with the demand!"

"Good taste!" both Jia Yin and Wan'er exclaimed after taking a sip, unable to help but praise it.

"Indeed, it's quite good. Sweet and sour, cool and refreshing, most importantly, it helps to beat the heat."

Jia Yin asked about the price and nodded, "Good value for money."

Having said that, she remembered something and added, "Even if you're busy, make sure the ice pops are sold out every day. First, it supports the livelihood of those at the Relief Agency, and second, it helps cool down the people in the whole city."

"Rest assured, Princess. Everyone is working overtime tonight, just to make more ice pops. Actually, ice pops aren't profitable, but we hope that even poor folks can have a cool treat. After all, not everyone has silver to buy ice cream and fruit drinks at our store."

Peng Zhǎngguì was a conscientious person, and since his master was generous, he naturally wanted to put in more effort.

Jia Yin chuckled upon hearing this and instructed, “That’s good. If there aren't enough people, hire a few more so everyone can get some rest. However, you must thoroughly investigate any new recruits before accepting them.”

"We're in the food business. If someone has bad intentions and tries to sabotage us, our reputation will be ruined."

"Yes, My Lady, please rest assured. I haven't forgotten about this matter and will be most careful." Peng Zhuang, the shopkeeper, added a touch of pride to his expression and replied, "Actually, even if My Lady hadn't come, I would have gone to see you and seek your guidance."

If there are suitable boys or girls on Suijin Beach, it would be best if they could send five people to learn a craft.

"If not, I'm going to have the shop assistants go home and call for their brothers, sisters, or nephews. That way, at least we know them, and it's better than hiring strangers."

"Good idea," Jia Yin praised, replying, "Then I'll go ask the village head today and have someone get back to you tomorrow."

"Yes, my lady,"

After a few more words, Peng Zhanggui stepped back out.

Then Jia Yin and Wan'er, along with the others, ate and drank to beat the heat and rested. After that, they continued to visit various shops.

Inside the palace, at this very moment, the Crown Prince was enjoying the cool breeze and admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden. Eunuch Feng sat with his legs crossed waiting by the garden entrance. When a young eunuch who had gone out of the palace to buy things finally returned, he scolded in a low voice, “You little rascal, why are you just back now The master is thirsty!”

Two updates today ~~ened the doors, guests kept coming non-stop. Both familiar and unfamiliar faces arrived with gifts, nearly filling the courtyard to bursting.As guests, the Li family certainly couldn't drive them awa...
