The unlucky fake daughter was screwed by the rotten system

Yu Zhizhi looked at the three baskets of fragrant flowers and smiled. She reached out and gently touched the petals, feeling their soft texture and fresh fragrance.

Then he raised his head, gave He Yang a thumbs up, and praised him, "You did a great job, very efficient!"

Hearing the praise, He Yang grinned, revealing his big white teeth, his eyes revealing a hint of anticipation, and asked softly: "Then...is there a reward?"

Yu Zhizhi's eyes flashed with cunning, and she teased him deliberately: "Of course I have. I still have a bottle of wine left from the one I gave you yesterday. It's a reward for you."

He Yang refused without a second thought: "No! I drank that bottle of wine before going to bed last night. It was hard to swallow, and the aftereffect was quite strong."

Fortunately, Yu Zhizhi didn't tell him that this chewing wine was made by fermenting saliva and rice, otherwise he might have killed her.

"Ice cream, want some?"

He immediately responded loudly: "Yes!"

Ever since he learned that his boss no longer sold ice cream, he has cherished this summer-cooling delicacy that he never gets tired of even more.

When I get back later, I must hide the ice cream more securely and never let my grandfather find it again.

After a while, Yu Zhizhi began to arrange the flowers carefully. Her movements were skillful and quick, and she placed them according to color or variety for later use.

However, He Yang on the side was not idle. He started to chatter non-stop:

"Boss, ever since Zhang Lei and the other two found out your close friend is the Sixth Prince, they've become as cowardly as quails, no longer daring to provoke us. Haha, now they've finally gotten what they deserved!"

Yu Zhizhi smiled but said nothing.

Then, He Yang continued, "Also, I just discovered that there are a few sneaky people wandering around Yun Mansion. I guess they want to find out where we will set up our stall next time and what we will sell."

"This is a good thing, it proves that we have repeat customers."

After saying that, Yu Zhizhi continued to focus on the work in her hands.

The whole yard is filled with the fragrance of flowers. From time to time, a breeze rustles through the leaves, and occasionally you can hear the chirping of birds.

At this time, Uncle He brought a servant from the He Mansion to the courtyard. The servant said to He Yang respectfully, "Sir, the master has something urgent to discuss with you. Please return home immediately."

When He Yang heard this, his heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale.

It’s over.

Come to him to find him and ask for punishment.

Seeing that his face looked amiss, Yu Zhizhi said with concern, "Since Uncle He has something urgent to talk to you about, go back quickly! Xiaotao and I are enough here."

"Let me help you for a while!"

He Yang now delays as much as possible and goes back as late as possible to avoid being scolded or punished.

Seeing that he was reluctant to go back, Yu Zhizhi leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Did you get into trouble?"

He Yang shook his head guiltily, "That's not true. Ever since I started setting up a stall with you, I've been very well behaved!"

Yu Zhizhi nodded and urged, "Go back quickly! Don't keep Uncle He waiting anxiously."

So, Yu Zhizhi saw He Yang frowning, with a gloomy face, carrying a box of ice cream, looking back every time he walked. He looked so miserable, as if he was about to be tortured.

After returning to the He Mansion, He Yang was taken to the main hall before he had time to hide the ice cream.

At this moment, the elders from the He and Lei mansions were already sitting in the main hall waiting for him.

Suddenly seeing so many people, He Yang became intimidated. He immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake with a tearful face: "I know I was wrong!"

He Xiong scolded seriously, "Then tell me, where did you go wrong?"

This brat, I thought he had been behaving himself lately and hadn't caused any trouble.

The results of it.

Unexpectedly, he didn't make trouble outside, but instead made trouble at home, causing all this trouble.

"I...I made the mistake of picking the flowers from the back gardens of the two mansions without telling you in advance."

"Pay attention to the wording. I didn't pick them, I picked them all!!! Why did you pick these flowers? If you have an itchy hand, I'd be happy to help you cure it."

After saying that, He Xiong waved the rattan in his hand.

He Yang was a little frightened when he saw his father's fierce look. He quickly put his hands behind his back and stammered, "Please listen to my cunning... my excuse. I have my reasons!"

Mrs. He was reluctant to beat or scold her son. She glared at He Xiong, then said gently, "Tell me first. If your reasons are reasonable, mother won't blame you."

He Yang raised his eyes and smiled, "My mother is always the best to me."

Mrs. Lei was unhappy and deliberately covered her mouth with her handkerchief and coughed lightly.

He Yang was very perceptive and said quickly, "And my grandmother and grandma, you've both been very kind to me. The flowers I picked are very useful. My eldest brother wants to use them to make rouge and powder and sell them at a stall."

Mrs. He paused holding the teacup, her expression filled with surprise. "You mean Zhizhi wants to make rouge and powder? Can she? Isn't that just nonsense?"

I heard that the production process of rouge and powder is extremely complicated, and those who master this craft have passed it down from generation to generation.

Looking across the entire capital city, there are currently only four rouge and powder shops, and their business is booming.

They are all monopolized by the Zhang and Pei families.

"Don't underestimate the boss, she is very powerful."

When everyone learned that Yu Zhizhi was going to set up a stall to sell rouge and powder, they all disagreed from the bottom of their hearts and did not believe that she could develop it.

Think they are fooling around.

Wouldn’t it be nice to set up a stall and sell delicious food?

What a pity for those beautiful flowers.

In the end, seeing that their attempts to dissuade He Yang were unsuccessful, they had no choice but to give up.

In view of the fact that He Yang admitted his mistake and repented this time, he was finally punished by being made to kneel in the ancestral hall for half a day.

Of course, all the ice cream he brought back was confiscated.

The next day, Yu Zhizhi looked at the limping He Yang and guessed that he had either been punished by kneeling or had pork stewed with rattan sticks when he returned home yesterday.

Seeing that he couldn't hide it from the boss's sharp eyes, He Yang had no choice but to tell the boss everything about stealing flowers.

Yu Zhizhi suddenly realized!

Yesterday, she felt something was wrong when she saw him picking so many flowers so efficiently.

It turned out that he had secretly become a flower thief.

Yu Zhizhi felt a little embarrassed. "After the lipstick and essential oil are ready, take some back for Aunt He and the others to use as an apology."

"it is good."

He Yang wanted to refuse, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

He didn't want to disappoint his boss, so he had to agree to it.

When he saw the reactions of his mother and grandmother yesterday, he knew that they did not think highly of the rouge and powder made by his eldest son.

So even if they took it back home, they didn't dare to try it easily.

Therefore, he decided to wait until the stall became popular and the lipsticks and essential oils sold well before giving them to them.

By then, let’s see if they will still question the boss’s ability.
