Chapter 386
"stop."

When Chen Yin heard this voice, she gave Lai Zhuang a tug, and then looked at Brother Lai.

"What's wrong?" Rai Zhuang asked.

Mrs. Liu walked in front of them and said with a dark face, "I'm afraid it's not good for a man and a woman to hold hands in public, right?"

"That's better than some married women pestering other men."

"You..." Mrs. Liu was angry, and after giving Chen Yin a hard look, she said, "Lai Zhuang, you will regret it."

"Lai has never done anything that he regrets. I hope Mrs. Liu will stop harassing her in the future." Lai Zhuang said coldly.

Mrs. Liu's face is very ugly, anyone who is said to be harassing her in front of everyone will definitely feel embarrassed.

"Lai Zhuang, don't think that you can run rampant in Baicheng because of your poor medical skills. It's your honor to see you. You insult me ​​like this. Hmph, I will definitely make you pay the price." Madam Liu was furious after she finished speaking. Take people out of here.

Chen Yin frowned, looked at Mrs. Liu who had gone away, and turned to look at Brother Lai beside her.

"Brother Lai, did I cause trouble for you?"

"No, don't think too much, let's go." Lai Zhuang smiled slightly.

This matter really has nothing to do with her. He has been tired of Madam Liu for a long time, so he just took this opportunity to make a bad face. Thank you Chen Yin.

It's just... Chen Yin is afraid that there will be troubles in the future, this is not a difficult task, just ask Ren Xing to go to her side to protect her later.

On the street, Lai Zhuang took her to see a few shops, and frowned as if she didn't buy anything.

"These things don't suit your eyes."

Chen Yin shook her head: "I don't need these, just add two more clothes."

"Then why didn't you buy clothes just now?" Their last store was a tailor.

Chen Yin smiled slightly: "I'll just go to Chenjiabufang to get the two clothes later, and I don't need to spend money on them."

She doesn't want to owe too much.

Hearing what she said, Lai Zhuang probably knew what she was thinking, so he didn't force it.

"In this case, let's go and see your shop! It's just a matter of time to meet up."

Chen Yin nodded. Originally, she was still a little worried, but now that Brother Lai was accompanying her, she became much more courageous.

In this way, the two went to the Chen family shop together.

"My mother gave me two shops, a fabric shop and a dim sum shop, where should we go first?" Chen Yin asked Lai Zhuang.

"Go to whichever one is closest." After Lai Zhuang finished speaking, thinking that it was her first time here, she continued, "I'll take you there! You probably don't even know where the shop is."

Chen Yin nodded, she really didn't know.

The dim sum shop is the closest one, and Lai Zhuang took her to the door of the dim sum shop.

Turning to look at her, he said, "This is it."

Chen Yin nodded slightly, then walked in.

"Hi, may I have some snacks?"

As soon as she entered, a guy came to greet her.Chen Yin took a look at this place, and at the first glance, she thought it was a good place. It seemed that the shopkeeper took good care of it.

The man saw that she just looked but didn't speak, didn't make a sound, and waited patiently.

Lai Zhuang glanced at it, and felt that the service attitude of the guys here was pretty good.

"Call your shopkeeper and tell him that Chen Yin is looking for him."

As soon as the shopkeeper heard that the surname was Chen, and he was still looking for the shopkeeper, he wondered in his heart: Could this be the Second Miss of the Chen family?
The man immediately asked: "Excuse me, are you Miss Chen Er?"

Chen Yin nodded slightly, smiling.

The man immediately became serious and led her in. Of course, the son who came with the second lady would not neglect her.

"Second Miss, please come inside, sir." The two of them followed the waiter into the reception room at the back, "Second Miss, wait a moment."

After the man poured the tea, he went to find the shopkeeper.

After a while, the shopkeeper came.

He came in and took a look, then asked Chen Yin directly.

"Second Miss, please show something that can prove your identity."

Chen Yin nodded, she didn't blame the shopkeeper, she was also responsible.

She took out a jade token, and the shopkeeper took it and looked at it carefully, and then confirmed it.

"Madam has already written a letter to explain, and the house where Second Miss lives has also been arranged. Will Second Miss go there now?"

"Show me the ledger first!" Chen Yin wanted to reorganize the dim sum shop.

The shopkeeper saw that the second miss wanted to see the account book, and nodded with a smile: "Second miss, wait a moment, I'll get it right away."

When the shopkeeper turned around, his expression changed.It seems that this second lady is not what the rumors say, and I don't know if she is bluffing or really has some skills. It will be enough to know when the account book is brought.

Soon, the shopkeeper came and brought over this year's account book.

"Miss, this is the account book for this year."

Chen Yin took it and put it in front of her, flipping through the pages one by one.

After a stick of incense passed by, Chen Yin closed the account book, raised her head and said to the shopkeeper with a smile: "The profit of this dim sum shop seems not to be high. If it continues like this, I'm afraid it will be a loss-making business within two years!"

The shopkeeper smiled. It seems that the second lady has some skills, but since the second lady has seen the problem, she should have a solution.

"I don't know if the second lady has any good ways to improve the dim sum shop's business."

"This seems to be something the shopkeeper should worry about." Chen Yin looked at the shopkeeper calmly.

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "I have tried all the methods that should be tried, and there is really no other way for the little one."

The shopkeeper just wanted to split his hands and lose the mess, deliberately embarrassing Chen Yin.

"Since that's the case, let the capable people do it!"

The shopkeeper's face immediately changed, and then his true colors were revealed.

"Second Miss, are you going to fire me?"

"Yes." Chen Yin stood up, picked up the account book again, and turned over the last page of the account book to show the shopkeeper, "I came into this shop and observed it, and there were about a dozen customers who came, and your account book remembers the last page yesterday. Accounting, there are not ten customers, not more than ten a day, in a place like Baicheng, shopkeeper, do you think this bookkeeping is realistic? I don’t want to talk about other issues, shopkeeper, you should understand it in your heart.”

The shopkeeper fell silent. He thought that he had done a good job with his accounts, and he didn't expect this second lady to be so smart.

Now this dim sum shop has been his painstaking effort for most of his life, so he can't just leave like this.

"Second Miss, I know I was wrong, please give me a chance."

"Give you a chance?" Chen Yin frowned slightly, "Do you dare to use someone like you?"

The shopkeeper understood that the second lady was determined to drive her away.

"Little one understands."

Seeing that the shopkeeper left immediately, Chen Yin sneered and said, "Actually, it's not that I can't give you the opportunity, but you have to grasp it well, the shopkeeper, there is only one chance."

After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately thanked the second lady.

"Thank you, Second Miss, for giving me a chance. I will do things honestly in the future."

"Well, I didn't know how my brother managed it before, but he will follow my rules in the future, and show me the bill once a month." She wanted to make it easier and clearer to read the bill this way.

The shopkeeper nodded again and again: "Okay, just listen to Miss."

"Also, please seize this opportunity, the shopkeeper, and don't even try to ruin this shop. I, Chen Yin, don't care about this, but what will happen to you when the time comes, this is an unknown."

Lai Zhuang saw that she seemed to be a different person, the corners of her lips raised, and felt that she was getting more and more interesting, as expected of being born in a merchant's family.

"Second Miss, don't worry, the younger one will definitely cherish this opportunity given by Second Miss."

"In a few days, it will be the New Year, and tomorrow we will close the door for everyone to have a holiday."

The shopkeeper was stunned, and then quickly asked: "The New Year is the time when the business is good, why is the second lady closing at this time?"

"Close the door as soon as I tell you, I have my own plan."

Seeing this, the shopkeeper didn't ask any more questions.

"Then I don't know when the second miss will open the door for business?" The shopkeeper thought it was strange for the second miss.

"How many cooks are there?"

"There are three cooks, all of whom are the Chen family's own cooks." This is also the reason why the Chen family is deeply rooted. As long as it is some technical work, the people who use it are basically the Chen family who have signed the contract of sale.

In this way, there is no fear of the skills being passed on.

"Then it will open on February [-]th." She remembered Xiao Ran saying that it was Valentine's Day.

Thinking of this, she laughed. There will be an event then, and the business should be good.

"Okay, cook, let me know and let them go directly to my mansion tomorrow."

"Yes."

After the shopkeeper sent Chen Yin out of the shop, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief.

It's really magnanimous for the lady not to pursue the past matters. It's better to do things honestly in the future. The welfare provided by the Chen family is better than that of other families. He can't lose his job.

After coming out of the dim sum shop, Chen Yin regained her appearance as a little woman.

"Brother Lai, didn't you scare you just now?"

"No." Lai Zhuang smiled, and then said, "Go to cloth workshop next."

"Well, there shouldn't be any problems with the cloth shop."

"Why are you so sure?" Lai Zhuang was curious.

"The people in the cloth shop, except for the ordinary embroidered girls, are all from the Chen family. Of course, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems. We still have to look to find out." Chen Yin said with a smile.

Lai Zhuang nodded, then smiled and said, "You are very different."

"What's the difference?"

"Miss Qianjin from someone else's family doesn't understand this, even the daughter of a merchant."

Hearing what he said, Chen Yin grinned and said, "I didn't learn this from my brother. Although my father doesn't like me, my mother and brother love me. I can do whatever I want, but I'm particularly obsessed with it." My brother, as time goes by, after watching and listening to a lot, he understands a little bit."

Seeing Chen Yin gesturing with her fingertips, Lai Zhuang smiled slightly.

"Looking at you like this, you will definitely be able to survive in Baicheng in the future."

"Don't underestimate me. I was born wrong. If I were a man, I could be like my brother."

"Really?" Lai Zhuang deliberately questioned her.

"I'm sure, I gave my brother some ideas that he couldn't solve before." Chen Yin paused here and then continued, "I can't say that."

"why?"

"My father will cut me off if he knows, but now it's all right. From now on, my father will no longer be able to control me, and my mother will not force me to get married anymore." Chen Yin feels that she is very happy now.

Seeing her like this, Lai Zhuang was a little envious. In fact, he also wanted his grandfather not to force him to get married.
