Chapter 87 Sending Jiaojiao back to her residence and paying a visit.
Feeling much better, He Yuejiao came out from the inner door and now had time to take a good look at the entire public restroom.
After washing my hands, they smelled faintly of flowers, which smelled wonderful!
She thought to herself in high spirits that if her father didn't punish her when they got back, she would bring him to this treasure trove to broaden his horizons.
Her father always cared most about the items used in the mansion, and he had to buy the most expensive and best things for everything. In her opinion, that was just fuss and that they were nice to look at but useless.
Her father should come here and see for himself what it means to have something beyond things and people beyond people.
Her older sister Bai is amazing! She's much more capable than her father!
He Yuejiao has made up her mind: from now on, she will be Sister Bai's most loyal follower! She's going to sing Sister Bai's praises to the skies among her friends!!!
He Yuejiao skipped and hopped out of the public restroom, only to find her idol, whom she had just fallen head over heels for, right in front of her. Excited, she immediately ran over and gave her a kiss.
"Sister Bai, Sister Bai! Your privy is so magnificent! It's hundreds of times better than the one my father painstakingly built in our mansion!!!"
The filial daughter, Jiaojiao, betrayed her own father right away. Upon returning home, Master He sneezed several times, unaware that he had already become the subject of his daughter's gossip…
"Haha, Jiaojiao, have you experienced it all?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengran immediately understood that her experience in the public restroom was similar to her own.
"Mmm, Sister Bai's [Wonderland] is absolutely amazing! Not only is the food delicious, but even the shopping process is so much fun. I've never been to such a captivating place before!"
She praised Bai Mengran with great enthusiasm, waving her hands from time to time, as if she wanted to raise a flag for her!
"I'm glad Jiaojiao likes it. By the way, there's something I want to ask you."
"I previously rented this shop at the end of Huanxi Street from a brokerage firm. I wonder if your father is interested in selling it? I'd like to buy it."
Although she had only met He Yuejiao that afternoon, Bai Mengran could tell that she was a straightforward girl, so she didn't beat around the bush and just said what she wanted to say.
"Hmm? Sister Bai wants this shop? Then I'll go talk to Father and ask him to give it to you!"
Anyway, her father always says that all these shops will be given to her in the future, since her older sister likes them and he wants to give them to her.
"That won't do. I just want to use the money I've earned these past few days to buy this shop openly and honestly. Do you understand what I mean, Jiaojiao?"
Bai Mengran was unwilling to accept favors from others, even if they were well-intentioned. Some things were more meaningful if you earned them through your own efforts.
"Yes, I understand what you mean, sister. I'll ask Father about the shop when we get back to the manor. With me in charge, Father will definitely have no problem."
He Yuejiao patted her chest and promised that although her father was always fierce, he loved her the most. If she couldn't even handle such a small matter for Sister Bai, then what face would she have left?
If all else fails, she'll make a scene; she's already an expert on that tactic.
"Then I'll leave it to Jiaojiao. When I take you back to your residence later, I'll bring some gifts to visit your father. If it's feasible, I'd like to finalize the purchase of the shop as soon as possible."
"Ah! Sister Bai is coming back to the manor with me? That's wonderful!"
Her father always said that she only made friends with people who were good at eating and having fun. Well, now she's met Sister Bai, who's even more amazing than her father. Let's see what he can say now!
Bai Mengran thought that since she was going to visit someone's home, she couldn't go empty-handed.
She told Jiaojiao to wait for her a moment, then quickly returned to the villa. As she walked, she opened the system shop and began looking for some representative foods to buy.
First, I opened the Chinese fast food restaurant and selected a few heartier dishes.
Braised pork belly, sweet and sour pork ribs, pickled fish, salt and pepper shrimp, beer-braised duck, shredded pork with garlic sauce, Mapo tofu...
Seeing that she had enough, Bai Mengran decided to pack it into a food container for later use.
Then, she ordered several cups of milk tea and fruit tea, instant noodles, candy, and some snacks, and packed them all up.
After the host placed the order, the food, neatly packaged, instantly appeared on the dining table in front of Bai Mengran.
There were three large bags in total, all of which used the previously customized "Wonderland" themed packaging bags.
Bai Mengran then stored the three bags of items in her [Mind Bag] to keep them fresh, and would retrieve them when she arrived at the He residence.
It was getting late, and she had to hurry back to find Jiaojiao so they could set off together.
When the two met up, Bai Mengran noticed that He Yuejiao also had a large bag of food in her hand.
It turns out she had just packed some snacks, thinking of keeping some for herself and sharing the rest with her family.
From this perspective, it seems the two of them are tacitly in sync...
Before setting off, Bai Mengran had the system reserve a carriage for her. As soon as the two arrived at the parking lot, the silver carriage came to greet them.
Jiaojiao was curious and wanted to sit on the second floor of the carriage, so Bai Mengran went with her.
This time, with a mental preparation, He Yuejiao consciously leaned back to let the rope tie her up, and then she clung to the window, watching the carriage take off into the air...
"Ahhh, I'm in heaven again!"
She screamed excitedly, feeling no fear at all this time, only excitement and thrill!
The silver carriage sped through the air, and about five minutes later, they arrived at the He residence.
As the carriage slowed down and came to a stop, He Yuejiao looked down through the window at the entire walled courtyard of her family's residence, then the rooftop, and finally stopped outside the gate.
The gatekeeper, who had been sneaked out by He Yuejiao earlier, had already spotted the carriage before it even landed. This was mainly because the carriage looked quite different from ordinary carriages, so he spotted it from a great distance...
Seeing the carriage suddenly spread its wings and fly down from the sky, the servant stared in astonishment and hurriedly ran to the front hall to report.
He was about to announce his arrival when he saw the master and mistress sitting and chatting in the front hall. He felt a little guilty for failing to keep an eye on the second young lady earlier, but seeing that the master hadn't noticed that the young lady was missing, he didn't mention the matter.
"Master, Madam, I just saw... I saw the Second Miss outside the door..." He stammered, feeling guilty, "She came back in a flying carriage!"
Master He was telling his wife about the rouge and face powder he had asked someone to bring her from the capital. He had spent a lot of money to buy it, and ordinary people couldn't buy it. He had heard from his friends in the capital that the new face powder was all the rage among the women in the capital.
In his youth, he was focused on making money and building his career, so he started a family relatively late.
Because he married in his thirties, Master He doted on his wife, who was thirteen years younger than him.
Mrs. He has always been particular about her appearance and loves to dress up, so when others see the two of them together, they think they are father and daughter.
He Yuejiao has an older sister who is three years older than her. She is introverted and dignified, completely different from He Yuejiao. She just married into an official's family this year and no longer lives in the mansion.
