Ten days later, the weather became colder and colder.

That day, when Jiang Zao was looking at the account book in the shop, Wan Ruzhen came.

Without waiting to be notified, she opened the curtain and walked in.

"Jiang Zao, what are you doing?"

"Do something." Jiang closed the account book early.

He picked up a book beside him and covered it with it.

"Hey, it's 'Kangtou Yuan' that came out last month. I tell you, it's outdated." Wan Ruzhen sat down familiarly and started chatting with Jiang Zao, "I recommend you a new book called 'Jinxiu Yuan', which is better. It tells the story of a rich lady who got together with the head shopkeeper of Jinxiu Restaurant because she had a plate of fresh food in the restaurant. Alas, the lady's status was too high and the head shopkeeper's status was too low, and the lady's father obstructed them in the middle..."

Jiang Zao listened silently. Of course she knew these books.

All of them were completed under her instruction, with the help of people in Fufeng County, led by Tian Shu.

People of this era lacked spiritual life, so while she promoted her own products in the book, such as peanuts, she also enriched people's entertainment.

It not only makes money but also improves people's quality of life.

However, the work of copying books is too slow now. Jiang Zao secretly sighed and decided to put printing on the agenda when he has time in the future.

Jiang Zao poured another cup of tea for Wan Ruzhen while listening.

Wan Ruzhen has a straightforward personality and has a dimple when she smiles, which makes her very cute.

Jiang Zao felt very relaxed getting along with such people.

When Wan Ruzhen got excited, she was not as quiet and graceful as other young ladies. Instead, she danced and was very lively.

She said a long string of words, and finally felt thirsty, so she tilted her head back and took a big gulp.

"The tea here is delicious. You can consider opening a teahouse in the future."

"Let's talk about the future later. What do you want to talk to me about today?"

After hearing this, Wan Ruzhen slapped her head and said, "Oh, luckily you reminded me, otherwise I would have really forgotten the important matter."

She pulled out an invitation from her sleeve and handed it to Jiang Zao.

"Look, this is the flower viewing banquet held by Lady Lin's family in Linzhou Prefecture, Dingzhou Prefecture City, in three days. You are a friend I know, and I like to get along with you, so I begged Dad to spend a lot of money to buy an extra invitation. Please go and have a look. Many of the flowers in her house are famous brands. It will be worth your while to come. You must come in three days."

"I'm not interested in a flower-viewing party." Jiang Zao really didn't understand what was so beautiful about a flower. Besides, she had never attended a flower-viewing party before and didn't know if she would feel uncomfortable if she went.

Moreover, it was a flower-viewing banquet in Linzhou Prefecture, so it would be better for a small figure like her not to go.

Wan Ruzhen took a deep breath, "You idiot, you don't know yet, do you?"

"What?" Jiang Zao blinked.

Seeing her ignorant look, Wan Ruzhen hurriedly approached and said, "This flower-viewing banquet held by Lord Lin's family is a once-in-a-century event. His family sends very few invitations, and only those who are invited can attend. I finally got an extra invitation with great difficulty. You don't even know what kind of rumors are spreading outside now."

"What's going on?"

Jiang Zao only comes to Dingzhou once every three days, and leaves after checking the accounts. Recently, the weather is cold, so she only comes once every eight days, and leaves after staying for a maximum of two days.

I really don't know what's happening outside.

Wan Ruzhen looked at the spring rain in the room with her mouth tightly closed.

Jiang Zao signaled Chunyu to go out.

Chunyu closed the door and stood guard outside.

Wan Ruzhen then patted the back of Jiang Zao's hand and whispered, "You are so obsessed with the restaurant that you didn't even know that a big shot came here these few days."

"What big shot?"

Even if there is, will it affect her life?

No, so she doesn't care.

"I heard that he is from the capital. He must be extraordinary to be treated as a guest of honor by the Lord of Linzhou Prefecture. At least he must be from a noble family. You don't know that the door of Jinxiufang has been trampled down in the past few days. Young ladies from various families have made new clothes to compete with each other. And Shangyuxuan, I heard that the treasures in it have been bought. The rouge in Cuihongfang has been sold out, and even the one that specializes in making cakes has been fully booked. If you don't prepare now, it will be too late."

"He's just a kid from an aristocratic family, why does it take so much trouble to mobilize so many troops?" Jiang Zao made a comment in his mind. It seemed that he was a guy who liked to have fun.

"You don't understand this. He's from the capital." Wan Ruzhen rolled her eyes at her. Jiang Zao, who came from Fufeng County, had a personality that was very much to her liking, but he was a very quiet person.

"The capital city is a place where gold is everywhere. If I could be favored by the son of a noble family and be married as his legal wife, that would be a big deal. In a way, my status would be different."

"What about you? Do you want to get married too?" Jiang Zao asked jokingly. Wan Ruzhen was three years older than her and she was fourteen this year. It was the right time for her to look for someone.

But she always felt that someone with Wan Ruzhen's eccentric personality might not be suitable for those big clans.

Of course, this is just Jiang Zao's idea.

"I don't want to." When she said this, Wan Ruzhen became depressed.

She didn't want to, but unfortunately she couldn't resist her father's desire.

When it comes to changing the family's status, Daddy is much more proactive than she is.

Recently, her mother has kept her in the house to learn etiquette, saying that she is afraid that she will be laughed at if she fails to behave herself.

God knows how boring it is to learn the rules. The nanny hired by parents at a high price is not gentle at all. She has a sullen face all day long, as if someone owes her money. But if she doesn't learn, her parents' nagging will always linger in her ears, so Wan Ruzhen has to learn.

"So I don't want to either." Jiang Zao smiled.

Wan Ruzhen pulled her arm and shook it, "Go ahead, Jiang Zao, Jiang Zao, I'll be so lonely if you don't go. You know, those girls are not familiar with me, I'll be so pitiful all alone."

Jiang Zao smiled helplessly, "Okay, I'll go. How can I let you down?"

As he said this, he was about to give the money for buying the invitations to Wan Ruzhen.

Wan Ruzhen didn't want it at all. They were friends and she couldn't accept it.

"Okay, then next time you come to our store to eat spicy hot pot, you can enjoy a discount with this card." Jiang Zao handed her a freshly made VIP card.

This is the consumption card she recently launched to boost business in her store.

"Okay, I will come here often in the future. The food here is delicious." Wan Ruzhen took it with a smile.

After seeing Wan Ruzhen off, Jiang Zao sent someone out to inquire about the situation.

Just as Wan Ruzhen said, the streets were full of people shopping.

But we don’t know who is coming?

But judging from the large number of troops mobilized by various families, it must be a big shot.

Chun Yu said excitedly, "Miss, do we need to prepare as well? Do we need to buy new clothes and jewelry? Where should we buy them?"

Jiang Zao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What preparations do I need to make? I'm not planning on marrying this stranger."
