Chapter 558 Questioning
Seeing this scene, several people knew that it would be difficult to get in, so they looked around the door of each shop and returned to the Princess's Mansion.
Zhong Ruiyu said happily: "Seeing what happened today, I feel like I have achieved the win that Sister Sisi talked about."
"Winning without any effort?" Li Ziyan added.
"Yes, it's just winning without doing anything. From now on, I don't need to do anything to make money. Isn't this just winning without doing anything? Haha!" Zhong Ruiyu said proudly.
"Okay, you stop here. I won't take you to any fun places in the future." Zheng Sisi said to him when she saw him showing off.
Zhong Ruiyu instantly perked up after hearing this: "Sister, dear sister, what's so fun?"
Zheng Sisi grinned: "I haven't thought about it yet." But she still reminded him: "You have to hurry up and train talents, otherwise there will be no one to manage the food street in Qingshui County after the shops are opened."
Zhong Ruiyu slapped his thigh and said, "That's right. I can't lie down now. I have to work hard, otherwise I will lose a big market."
Everyone was amused by his antics.
He Qianqian mentioned the perfume at the last palace banquet. Zheng Sisi had a headache: "There's no rush for this. I'm still developing it."
Li Ziyan interrupted, "We are not in a hurry, we are just afraid that customers can't wait. When I went out to pay New Year's greetings, someone asked when the perfume would be available. I was speechless."
Zheng Sisi said in surprise: "You are too impatient. This perfume is mainly extracted from flowers. Where can we find flower petals in this season? If anyone asks again, just delay."
Li Ziyan said: "Okay, I hope your tactic of 'delay' will be useful."
Next, everyone made arrangements and division of labor for the personnel training of the Qingshui County store. Because it was not yet the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, after discussing things, everyone went home separately.
Sheng Zhen still followed behind him, and said that he would live in the Princess's Mansion from now on, and the people below would come here to find him if they had anything to report. Zheng Sisi was puzzled and felt more and more strange. She pulled Sheng Zhen back to the yard and went directly into the study.
Zheng Sisi pushed Sheng Zhen to sit on a chair in the study. She stepped on the armrest of the chair like a female bandit, stared at Sheng Zhen with her head down, and asked, "Tell me the truth, what have you been hiding from me recently?"
Sheng Zhen pretended to be scared and said, "Wife, don't be like this, I'm scared!"
"Don't try to get away with it. Just tell me." Zheng Sisi ignored his cuteness.
Sheng Zhen sat up a little straighter, holding Zheng Sisi's waist with both hands, afraid that she would not stand firmly and fall, and said: "I really didn't hide anything from you, I just want to stay by your side."
"Yeah." Zheng Sisi widened her eyes fiercely.
"Don't glare at me like that. It's not okay for me to say that. Do I really just want to be closer to you and protect your safety?" Sheng Zhen said helplessly.
Zheng Sisi looked at him and thought for a while: "No, I felt something was wrong before the New Year. He must be hiding something from me."
Sheng Zhen was shocked. Sisi was too meticulous. She noticed the slightest change. It seemed that she couldn't hide it. He pulled Zheng Sisi down to sit on the chair next to him and looked at her seriously.
"Sisi, I really didn't mean to hide anything from you. It's just that I don't know if something is true that hasn't happened yet, so I'm just taking precautions."
Zheng Sisi tilted her head and looked at him: "What's the matter?"
Sheng Zhen had no choice but to tell everyone about the spies from other countries that were captured before the New Year.
Zheng Sisi nodded, then rested her chin on her hand and said, "You mean the news about the high-yield grain seeds has spread, and people from other countries are looking for me."
Sheng Zhen shook his head: "They probably don't know it's you yet. They're still investigating because I've blocked a lot of information. Even if they know there's high-yield crops, they don't know who grew them. But this can't be kept secret for long. We'll find out later. It just takes some time."
"So this is why you've been following me closely lately."
Sheng Zhen nodded: "This is a big deal, more important than anything else."
Zheng Sisi felt warm in her heart after hearing this, but she didn't want Sheng Zhen to be worried every day, so she said, "Sheng Zhen, you should have told me about this earlier, and I would have a way to deal with it."
Sheng Zhen didn't expect Zheng Sisi to be so calm. She was not at all like the way she was when they first met and he told her there would be danger. Could it be that she was pretending to be scared to lie to him?
Sheng Zhen asked, "Sisi, when you stopped the imperial carriage that day and I told you that it would be dangerous after you left the palace, you were pretending to be scared to lie to me, right?"
Zheng Sisi frowned: "No, I am really afraid. Who cares more about life than me? It's just that I have the ability to protect myself, you know."
Sheng Zhen suddenly thought of Zheng Sisi's space and said happily: "You mean space?"
"Bingo!" Zheng Sisi snapped her fingers and said proudly.
