As usual, Yang Yuanzu found a secluded place in the warehouse of the Agriculture Department to rest. Not long after he spread out the straw mat and lay down, he heard some noise. He thought it was his colleagues from the Agriculture Department who had returned, so he did not move and continued to lie there.

As a result, the noise was getting closer and closer to him, and the footsteps were deliberately slowed down, unlike the footsteps of the people in their agricultural company.

As soon as Yang Yuanzu raised his head, he saw a eunuch sneaking into the warehouse. Of course, the other party also noticed Yang Yuanzu. The two of them were silent for a second, and then the eunuch quickly turned around and ran out the door.

If he hadn't run away, Yang Yuanzu would not have suspected him. After all, there were often eunuchs in their Agricultural Department who came to run errands or deliver messages. But if he ran away, Yang Yuanzu would definitely be suspicious.

Yang Yuanzu threw away the small blanket on his body, quickly stood up and ran out the door. He saw the eunuch's hurriedly fleeing back disappearing around the corner. Yang Yuanzu followed him and turned the corner of the wall to see several eunuchs busy at work.

Some were sweeping the floor, and some were running to deliver lunch boxes.

Yang Yuanzu pretended to be passing by and walked up to them.

The eunuchs who were cleaning the room were breathing normally and didn't look nervous or like they had been running.

Because these people were doing rough work, their breathing was heavier than usual. If the eunuch who came to the warehouse deliberately suppressed his breathing, it would not be easy for Yang Yuanzu to tell.

Yang Yuanzu looked at the eunuchs who were delivering meals around him. These eunuchs walked very fast and their breathing was heavier than that of the cleaners. Yang Yuanzu looked at the food boxes in their hands. Every eunuch was holding a food box.

Some of these food boxes were taken back after the meal was finished, while others were filled with fresh meals to give away.

Yang Yuanzu immediately grabbed two people and asked, "Did you see a little eunuch running over just now?"

The eunuchs all shook their heads and said they didn't see anything.

Wen Xinyue let the man go and left. On the way out, she suddenly turned around to take in everyone's expressions, and found that everyone was doing their work as usual.

Yang Yuanzu gave up and returned to the warehouse of the Agricultural Department to continue resting. When everyone came back in the afternoon, he did not mention this matter to anyone.

Until the afternoon, people came back lazily in twos and threes. Some even came back yawning when it was almost time to get off work, looking as if they had not woken up yet.

Yang Yuanzu was taking a break at his post as usual, waiting for his turn to be off duty. When it was time to be off duty, the head farmer called him over and gave him the task for tomorrow.

Yang Yuanzu's arithmetic skills are well known in the Agriculture Department, so the calculation of grain taxes was given to him, and the arithmetic officer will help him during this period.

Before Nong the Chief wanted to say a few more words, he heard the voice of being dismissed. He then said nothing more and left his post directly, leaving even more actively than Yang Yuanzu.

When Yang Yuanzu returned to his seat, everyone had already left.

While everyone was away, Yang Yuanzu pulled out a piece of his precious hair and tied it to the warehouse door.

The reason why hair is precious is that Yang Yuanzu found that he had signs of hair loss recently. In order to reduce his hair loss, Yang Yuanzu reduced the time he spent reading at night.

Yang Yuanzu left a little late, in fact only a minute or two. When he arrived at the palace gate, Luo Mingshi and others were already waiting next to the carriage.

Yang Yuanzu probably never even dreamed that he would block the carriage at the gate of the imperial palace.

It is now the peak time for off-duty work. There are many carriages coming to the palace gate to pick up people. In particular, some people are reluctant to leave after their shift and insist on chatting on the roadside.

Only Tianpu came to pick them up from their shift today. After Yang Yuanzu got on the carriage, he asked, "Why are you the only one here today?"

In the past, Tianpu and Suning would come to pick people up, and occasionally Lin Tingan or Yang Huahua would come.

"Master Luo and Madam Luo went to look at the store, and the other masters followed them."

The two elders of the Luo family plan to open a clinic in Changjing. They have been planning for this for a few days and today they made an appointment with the dentist to check out the shop in the afternoon.

Not only did the two elders of the Luo family have plans, Lin Ting'an also planned to open a branch of Fengping Department Store in Changjing. Seeing this, Yang Huahua also wanted to open a branch of Baiweilou.

The clinic run by the two elders of the Luo family in Shunxing County was closed, so they could concentrate their energy on the clinic in Changjing City.

Lin Ting'an and Yang Huahua both have to take care of the accounts of the Shunxing County main store, and Lin Ting'an has even more to take care of. Yang Yuanzu had previously suggested that Lin Ting'an wait a bit before opening a new store, so Lin Ting'an planned to let the Luo family open the clinic first.

Luo Mingshi was chattering with Yang Yuanzu about what happened in the Imperial Hospital today. The carriage stopped while the two were talking. Yang Yuanzu thought that the carriage would move after being stuck for a while, but Luo Mingshi's mouth became dry from talking and the carriage did not move at all.

Luo Mingshi opened the curtain and looked ahead. Two carriages were blocking the road. He wanted to urge them to go, but Yang Yuanzu glanced at the situation outside and pulled Luo Mingshi back: "Why are you urging them? Have you seen others urging them?"

The people blocking the way were none other than Yang Yuanzu's immediate superiors - the Vice Minister and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

The two men seemed to be having a conversation as the carriages moved slowly side by side.

"I say, instead of medical skills, why don't you practice your eye contact first."

"I didn't see anyone in the carriage." Seeing Yang Yuanzu's disappointed look, Luo Mingshi whispered, "I'll be more careful next time." Yang Yuanzu finally understood Doctor Luo's feelings. No wonder he finally agreed to Luo Mingshi's request to marry into his wife's family.

After Yang Yuanzu and the others followed for a while, a servant from behind ran to the front and urged the two to walk faster.

The two superiors recognized the identity of the servant, so they stopped talking and quickened their pace.

"Who is this boy? He is so powerful!"

"That's the personal servant of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. You should avoid these people when you see them next time."

Luo Mingshi nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

The traffic jam outside the imperial city eased, and Yang Yuanzu, who had worked hard all day, took Luo Mingshi home.

Yang Yuanzu played with the dog for a while after entering the house, and then went into the house. Lin Ting'an and Aunt Chen were not there. Yang Yuanzu was probably still looking at houses on the street or next door.

Now Sister Cai is the chef in charge of their family. Aunt Kang resigned when they came to Changjing City because she didn't want to leave Shunxing County.

Sister Cai’s cooking skills are okay, but they are still far behind the gourmet expert Yang Huahua, so her family likes to go to the Luo family for meals.

Yang Yuanzu thought about sending Sister Cai to Luo's Yang Huahua to learn cooking skills, but after turning the idea over in his mind, he gave it up.

Yang Huahua makes a living by his cooking skills. If Sister Cai learns the skills from him and then opens a restaurant like Yang Huahua's in the future, that would not work. Besides, the dishes that Yang Huahua knows now are all developed by him.
