Chapter 770: Chapter 770: Suspicions Arise Again

"Thank you, Miss Lin," said the Elder Princess as she expressed her gratitude and watched her leave.

"Aunt, I’m really confused. How on earth could that small bag on Miss Lin’s waist hold four bamboo cans?" The Eldest Prince simply couldn’t hold back his question and quietly pondered it.

Previously, it had been the same. Somehow, two white foxes were able to be pulled out from that small bag.

This time it isn’t white foxes, but four bamboo cans. So where were the two white foxes stuffed? He really suspected that if Miss Lin still needed those two white foxes, would she pull them out of her little bag again?

Hearing this, the Elder Princess gave him a sidelong look. Her deep gaze landed on her nephew.

"Chatterbox, if your father the emperor heard this, he might become suspicious," she said.

Her daughter, of course, was always right. Whoever dared doubt her Sangsang was challenging her!

The Eldest Prince raised a hand, slapping his own mouth in surprise.

...

Huayuan Farm.

Thanks to Lin Caisang’s previous contributions, the vast Huayuan Farm is now managed by the Zeng family, looking quite professional.

Many fruit trees have been planted, and a large number of workers have been recruited. With the backing of the Elder Princess, Huayuan Farm suddenly became famous in Jianan City.

"Load all these onto the cart carefully."

Today, Old Man Zeng personally escorted a batch of newly-made dried fruits. Just as Lin Caisang arrived, he was also at Huayuan Farm.

"Uncle Zeng, you’re here too."

Initially, when Zeng heard Lin Caisang’s voice, he thought he was hearing things. It wasn’t until he turned around and saw Lin Caisang that he believed his ears were not playing tricks on him.

"Oh, boss lady, it’s you. Brother Yulang and I have been thinking about you every day," he said.

"Why were you thinking about me?"

Lin Caisang smiled and asked him.

"Is it because business isn’t going well in the shop and you’re running at a loss?"

"Not at all, the business is doing quite well," Old Man Zeng immediately assured her.

"Our dried fruits are the freshest. Every day, we transport them from the farm to the city. Many are sold the same day they are harvested. Not many farms can do that these days," he boasted.

"It seems you and Brother Yulang have done quite a good job here. It looks professional," Lin Caisang remarked with a satisfied smile.

"Indeed."

Old Man Zeng didn’t show any modesty; in fact, he was quite pleased with himself. Both of them chatted and laughed at the side while watching others load the cart from afar.

However, not long after, Old Man Zeng’s smile disappeared.

"However, boss lady, some people in Jianan City are simply intolerable," he complained.

"What happened? Did someone stir up trouble?" Lin Caisang asked.

That wouldn’t be surprising. She had a dried fruit stand and a spice shop, two different businesses.

The recipe for dried fruits was her own, and many of the elixir pills for beauty and health in the spice shop were her unique secret recipes. Others could not learn them even if they wanted to. Seeing her businesses thriving, it was natural that there would be jealous eyes.

"Previously, some workers from the farm were bribed by someone and tried to sell the secret method of making the dried fruits. Fortunately, Yulang discovered it in time and averted a major disaster," Old Man Zeng explained.

Thinking back, it was a close call. Without Yulang’s trusted contacts in the farm, this could have happened.

"Do you know who it was?" Lin Caisang asked.

If someone dared to take a crack at her business, she wanted to see if they were capable enough.
