1944 The Real World 33

"Uncle Zhang, this is for you to eat."

"Young master, no need, I've already eaten it. You should eat it yourself."

With a sullen face, the boy Mo said seriously: "My mother and I have already eaten, and this is for you. Uncle Zhang, if you don't accept it, I will be very sad."

As he said that, his little mouth twitched.

Zhang chauffeur looked at his aggrieved little face, and could only accept it with a smile.

Early the next morning, the driver Zhang packed up and saluted and waited for them at the inn. Bei Yutang and Xiao Zimo went to the rouge shop of Lei's firm. As soon as they entered the door, the guy led them into the box on the second floor.

"Our shopkeeper will come over in a while, the two of you will wait a moment."

"Okay, you go to work first."

The guy brought snacks and tea, and then went back.

After a quarter of an hour, the shopkeeper Lin did not appear.

"Mother, let's go and ask." The boy Mo jumped off the chair and walked towards the outside.

When I walked to the stairs, I happened to see a guy and stopped him.

"What's the matter, little boy?"

"Where is Shopkeeper Lin?" asked the boy Mo.

"The shopkeeper is in the account room on the first floor. Do you have anything to do with the shopkeeper?"

"Oh it's all right."

The boy Mo bowed his hands and left.

After returning to the wing, tell Bei Yutang about the situation.

"Wait a minute."

Another quarter of an hour has passed for them to wait. If they don't set off and return, it will be dark when they return to Linzhou Mansion.

Just when Bei Yutang was about to go to the clerk to urge him, the door of the wing room was pushed open, and a clerk brought up a new pot of tea and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, the shopkeeper is still busy and can't take it off for a while. Get off."

"What is your shopkeeper busy with now?" Bei Yutang asked.

"I was greeting a difficult guest and sent the guest away, and he came right away. Our shopkeeper asked me to come over and see if there is anything missing from Madam and Young Master." The man asked sincerely and enthusiastically.

"No need. I'd like to ask you to pass the message. After a quarter of an hour, if Manager Lin is still free, the money will not be settled." Bei Yutang said in a low voice.

"Okay, okay, this little one will convey the meaning of Madam."

After the man left, Bei Yutang frowned slightly.

Before, I thought that this shopkeeper Lin was reliable, but I didn't expect it to be like this. It was clearly said that the time was right, but they made them wait here for so long in vain.

This time, before they waited a quarter of an hour, they heard footsteps coming from outside the door. Soon the door of the box was pushed open, and shopkeeper Lin walked into the box.

"I'm sorry, sorry, I'm really sorry." Manager Lin apologized repeatedly as soon as he came up, "It's really that the guest is too difficult to deal with, and he kept asking me for ice cream, saying that he must give it to him before I come out next time. Reserve a few bottles."

"You also know that this ice cream is hard to find. He wants several bottles in one breath. Where do you tell me to get it." Manager Lin said helplessly.

"Speaking of which, Mrs. Mu is still very powerful. This ice cream won't work without you." He sighed again.

Bei Yutang interrupted his continued eloquence, "Manager Lin, please count the money."

"Okay." Manager Lin responded very simply, opened the account book, and after opening it, he said to Bei Yutang, "According to the previous record, the dividend this time is five thousand taels. See if that's the number."
