Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter
Chapter 12: An Incident at the Dim Sum Shop
The manager of the dim sum shop was already frightened and at a loss as to what to do. If the accident happened to ordinary people, he would not be so panicked, but the accident happened to high-ranking officials in the capital, so this time the matter became a big deal.
The prince, who hadn't received a response for a long time, couldn't suppress his anger and shouted loudly: "I asked you a question, did you hear me?"
The steward came back to his senses and scratched his confused head: "A few months ago, Aunt Li came to the store and asked us to replace the expensive flour with cheap flour to make snacks, but the price remained the same."
"What?" The prince's face turned gloomy: "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell me?"
"Prince, have you forgotten that it was you who personally informed us that the power of the Prince's Mansion was handed over to Aunt Li, and asked us to report to Aunt Li if we have any problems in the future."
At this moment, the prince wanted to slap himself twice. Now was not the time to pursue responsibility, but to solve the problem first: "The flour of the pastry shop has been replaced with expensive flour. The texture and taste are different from before. The pastries made must be tasted and confirmed to be ok before they can be sold to customers."
The shopkeeper's palms were sweating from nervousness: "I have personally tasted the dim sum and only sold it to customers after finding no problems."
"We can't find the cause, so we can only ask the imperial physician in the palace to take a look." The prince walked outside and said loudly to the crowd, "I know everyone is very anxious. This time, the prince's mansion will not shirk responsibility. You go to the shop assistant to register. I will go to the palace to invite the imperial physician to come to your mansion to treat you."
The crowd still refused to give up: "It's over after just a look, the elderly and children at home are all lying in bed?"
"The Prince's Mansion will also be responsible for the subsequent expenses."
After hearing these words, everyone was willing to give up.
After everyone left, the prince rushed to the palace without stopping. Relying on his status as a prince, he borrowed five imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital and asked them to treat the guests who were in trouble.
……
Li Wanrong, who learned of the accident, sent Xing'er to find out the situation. She walked around the room anxiously and saw Xing'er hurriedly walking into the yard.
He hurried forward and asked, "How is it?"
Xing Er was so frightened by the scene at the dim sum shop that she almost cried out: "There are so many people making trouble in the dim sum shop."
Li Wanrong was stunned for a long time. She just replaced the expensive flour with ordinary flour and didn't poison it. How could such a big incident happen? "How did the prince solve it?"
"There were too many people making trouble in front of the store. I couldn't get in and couldn't get any information, so I came back."
This made Li Wanrong even more anxious: "You go down first." After Xing'er left, she closed the door and began to pack her bags and put the silver in place, just in case things got out of control.
She packed up her bags and left with the prince. The money she had earned in the past few months was enough for the two of them to live a carefree life.
……
When the prince finished everything, it was already dark. He dragged his tired body back to Li Wanrong's courtyard.
Li Wanrong stepped forward and asked with concern: "Is the matter resolved?"
The furious prince raised his hand and slapped Li Wanrong hard: "Why did you replace the expensive flour in the pastry shop?"
Li Wanrong covered her face and looked at the prince with tears in her eyes: "You actually hit me."
Under normal circumstances, the prince would definitely not hit Li Wanrong: "Do you know how much trouble you have caused me?"
"I didn't do it on purpose. I just wanted to make more money. How could I know that after I changed the flour, these people would have problems eating it?"
The prince was so angry that he couldn't speak: "Until now, you still think you are right."
"I did nothing wrong. I just changed the flour to something cheaper. I didn't put any poison in it."
"You..." Li Wanrong's unrepentant look completely angered the prince: "From today on, you are not allowed to go anywhere. Stay in the yard and reflect on yourself."
"How can I do that?" Li Wanrong screamed, "What if something goes wrong with those people and I am held responsible? At that time, not only I, but you too will have to pack up and run away with me."
The prince had a terrible headache, not knowing what was in Li Wanrong's mind. Those who were in trouble this time were all high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital. If anything happened to any one of them, the two of them would not be able to escape even if they wanted to.
In order to appease Li Wanrong, he had to lie: "It's not as serious as you think. There's no need to pack up and run away."
Li Wanrong's anxious heart calmed down: "I hope nothing will happen."
The exhausted prince ignored Li Wanrong, left the yard, and went to the front hall to wait for news.
……
Chunxia excitedly ran to He Shulan who was admiring the flowers in the garden and said, "Princess, has something serious happened to Concubine Li?"
He Shulan patted Chunxia on the head and said, "This is the Prince's Mansion, not the He Mansion. Don't run around. It's very disrespectful. When will you change your noisy temper?"
"Miss, this is not the point now. Aunt Li is in trouble. Aunt Li is the point."
He Shulan asked calmly, "What happened to Aunt Li? Is it worth making such a fuss?"
"I just heard from the servants of the attached middle school that Aunt Li replaced the expensive flour in the snack shop. Many people had problems after eating the flour and gathered at the door of the snack shop to make trouble. The prince returned to the mansion and slapped Aunt Li in the face." Chun Xia couldn't stop smiling when she said this.
Qiu Dong asked, "Princess of the County Prince, since Aunt Li has caused such a big incident this time, will the County Prince give you the power to manage the household?"
"No," He Shulan replied affirmatively.
"why?"
Chunxia and Qiudong asked in unison.
He Shulan showed a faint smile on her face: "This incident seems to be quite a big deal, but it's actually not a big problem. The snacks sold in the Prince's Mansion are very expensive, and the customers are all dignitaries from the capital. They are used to eating snacks made with expensive flour. The expensive flour was replaced with cheap flour, and their stomachs couldn't stand it, so they had problems after eating it."
Qiu Dong frowned and said, "There is no hope of regaining the power to run the family."
"Don't worry, there's plenty of time," He Shulan replied.
"Although there wasn't any major problem with the dim sum shop, the prince slapped Li Wanrong hard this time and helped us vent our anger." Chun Xia's tone was indescribably proud.
At this time, there was a noise coming from the front hall of the Prince's Mansion. He Shulan said, "The Prince's Mansion will not be peaceful these days. We should not get involved in Li Wanrong's affairs. Let's go back to the courtyard quickly to avoid getting into trouble."
"Yes, yes, every time something happens, Aunt Li's first thing is to pass the blame." Chun Xia replied, following behind Li Wanrong.
