Chapter 242 Expanding the Rice Shop

"The prince of Beidi Kingdom?!" Du Wanchun exclaimed in surprise, with a smile on her face as she finished speaking.

Zhou Ruiyuan did not see the smile and continued to explain: "Yes, he is not only the prince of Beidi Kingdom, but also the future prince."

Du Wanchun sat down slowly and asked, "Ms. sir, what's the problem between you and him in the past? Why do you look so bad when you see that he is the prince of Beidi Kingdom?"

Zhou Ruiyuan sat next to her and replied: "He and I have nothing to do with each other, but after all, he is from the Beidi Kingdom. Our two countries have always been at odds with each other. I don't know what the purpose of his sudden visit to our Changliu Village is."

Du Wanchun rolled his eyes, "I guess he came just for Lady Wu."

Zhou Ruiyuan smiled and said, "I think so."

Du Wanchun comforted him and said, "Wei Xun doesn't know who he is now, so having him here is not necessarily a bad thing."

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded slowly, "Yes, if we can conspire with him, maybe we can get a helper."

"That's right." Du Wanchun responded with a smile.

The two hit it off immediately, but did not reveal Wei Xun's life experience. ?.?????.???

This is indeed a good thing for Wei Xun and Mrs. Wu.

Wei Xun's father had already promised him a marriage in Beidi, so he had to marry him. If she knew about his life experience, Lady Wu would probably have a grudge.

The monarch of Beidi Kingdom may even kill him.

The next day, Zhou Ruiyuan came to the county government office in Cheng'an County with his appointment documents.

Next to the county government office is the former Li County Magistrate's Mansion, which has now been changed into the Zhou Mansion.

Magistrate Li took good care of the courtyard inside. Du Wanchun only asked the maids in the mansion to clean it up briefly before they could move in.

Although she and Zhou Ruiyuan don't live here permanently, they can still rest here during the day.

After Du Wanchun finished his work in the house, he went to the shop.

Recently, Wang Qiu is always helping Zhang Qiuhe in the shop.

When Du Wanchun arrived, Wang Qiu was moving goods.

Xiao Yao'er sat alone in the corner eating candied haws.

Du Wanchun walked to Xiao Yao'er and squatted down, asking, "Who gave you this candied haws of sugar?"

The little boy can now say simple words: "My uncle gave it to me."

After speaking, he pointed at Wang Qiu.

Du Wanchun looked up at Wang Qiu and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, my husband-in-law said that he wanted me to ask you if you would like to work as an errand in the county government."

Wang Qiu raised his head when he heard this, "You mean, Ruiyuan wants to make me a county government official?"

Du Wanchun nodded.

In the past, Wang Qiu always liked to call His Highness Zhou Ruiyuan, but it took him a long time to change it, and now he calls him Ruiyuan.

Wang Qiu put away the goods in his hands, took out a handkerchief and wiped Yao'er's mouth, "It's okay, but I'm afraid that Madam Zhang won't be able to do it here by herself."

Du Wanchun saw his intention and said with a smile, "I'll just hire another guy."

Wang Qiu said quickly: "That's not possible. What if the guy doesn't have good intentions?"

Du Wanchun had a smile on his face and didn't make things difficult for him. He said with a smile: "In that case, you can stay here and follow Mrs. Zhang to take good care of the store."

Wang Qiu responded with a smile: "Okay."

Zhang Qiuhe's cheeks turned slightly red after hearing this, and he turned around and continued to read the account book.

Du Wanchun then went to Mipu.

The business of Mipu was very good, and Du Wanchun specially invited an older clerk to look after the shop.

When the waiter saw Du Wanchun coming, he greeted him with a smile, "Madam, it's a great event."

"What's the big happy event?" Du Wanchun asked.

The clerk smiled and replied: "The magistrate of Wanzhou County wants our Zhou family to open a rice shop in their county. Madam, the business of our rice shop is getting bigger and bigger."
