Chapter 567: The Restaurant Manager

In order to not lose his freedom, he had to learn how to be a good restaurant manager in these three months.

Zhang Yuanbin cupped his fists at Lin yuelan and said gratefully, ” thank you, boss. I will definitely learn how to be a restaurant manager in the next three months.”

He was grateful to Lin yuelan because she had bought him. She could have bound him with a servant contract. However, Lin yuelan gave him freedom and kept a good record for him. He would never forget such great kindness!

He then bowed to Lin yuelan and thanked her, ” Miss Lin, I will never forget your great kindness. I will do my best in my job and not let you have any worries!

Lin yuelan was quite satisfied with Zhang Yuanbin’s tactfulness and awareness. She nodded and said, ” then I’ll see how you perform!”

At the Zhang mansion, the manservant hurriedly ran into the room. As he ran, he shouted without any care for his image, ” master, master, I have found out!”

Old master Zhang walked out of a concubine’s room. His clothes were not even tidied up yet. It was the concubine who tidied up his clothes while walking and said in a coy voice, ” old master, this servant is too unruly. Don’t you need to rest? He just ran over with such a loud voice.”

Then, she turned around and scolded him loudly, ” Zhang San, do you have any manners? How can you make such a big fuss? ”

Zhang San’s face turned pale. He immediately lowered his head to apologize and hurriedly explained, ” I’m sorry, third Madam. I have something urgent to report to the master. I’ve lost my manners. Please forgive me this time, Third Madam!”

The third wife was currently the most favored concubine. It was better for him not to offend her, or else he would suffer.

The third Madam said unhappily, ” what kind of urgent matter is it that you need to disturb master’s rest time to report? ”

The servant looked at the third madam with some difficulty and then looked at old master Zhang, “this…”

However, old master Zhang waved his hand and said to Third Madam, ” alright, you can leave first. Zhang San, come with me!”

After saying that, old master Zhang turned towards the study.

As soon as he entered the study, old master Zhang asked sternly, ” what did you find out? ”

The servant replied, ” old master, Zhang Yuanbin was not bought by that child. He was hired to be the manager of the restaurant. I heard that he would be paid every month, and the twenty taels of silver would be deducted from his monthly salary.”

Old master Zhang frowned, ” what’s going on? What was the relationship between Ni Lai Wo Wang restaurant and that child? Why did the owner of the restaurant follow that child’s nonsense?”

The servant hesitantly reported, ” old master, I’ve also found out that this restaurant was actually owned by that child.”

“What?” Zhang Xingwang was extremely shocked, and he said in disbelief, ” are you sure that such a large restaurant was really owned by that child? And it’s not owned by the person behind that child?”

The manservant shook his head and said, ” master, this is what I’ve heard. That child is called Lin yuelan, a farmer’s daughter from the Lin family Village. She doesn’t have any background.”

Zhang Xingwang immediately thought of a crucial matter and hurriedly asked, ” then what is her relationship with Zhou wencai and County Magistrate Zhou? ”

However, the manservant frowned and shook his head. “old master, I didn’t find out what relationship she has with young master Zhou or County Magistrate Zhou. However, I heard that every time she entered the city, it was young master Zhou who personally entertained her. It was also said that the location of the restaurant was also personally found by young master Zhou.”

His words made Zhang Xingwang feel that the relationship between Lin Yuelan and County Magistrate Zhou was even more complicated. However, in order to avoid future trouble, he had to clarify the relationship between this person named Lin yuelan and County Magistrate Zhou.

He then ordered, ” send someone to the Lin family Village to find out more about this farmer’s daughter named Lin yuelan. Then, report to me immediately!”

“Yes, master!”

At the Zhou mansion, a servant came over and reported to County Magistrate Zhou, ” old master, old master Zhang from the Zhang Manor has brought a pot of wintersweet and is waiting at the door!

County Magistrate Zhou nodded and said, ” please!”

Then, he turned to Lin yuelan, who was sitting beside him and said, ” this old master Zhang sent me a visiting note three days ago. He said that he had brought wintersweet for me to try. I couldn’t reject him, so I agreed.

Lin yuelan nodded with a smile. “my Lord, you sure like to joke.”

County Magistrate Zhou was well aware of old master Zhang’s purpose in coming. Therefore, he asked his son, Zhou Wencai, to invite Lin yuelan and Jiang Zhennan over.

It was better to squash enmity than keep it alive.

For the sake of An Ding County’s peace, he didn’t want the Zhang family to have any conflict with Lin yuelan.

When old master Zhang brought in two servants carrying a pot of wintersweet filled with plum blossoms and saw that in the courtyard, other than County Magistrate Zhou and young master Zhou, there was also a young man and a young woman, he was slightly stunned.

However, he quickly reacted. He cupped his fists and bowed to County Magistrate Zhou. “Your Excellency Zhou!” Following that, he shouted at Zhou wencai, ” young master Zhou!

Zhou wencai nodded and replied, ” old master Zhang!”

However, after he called out to Zhou wencai, his gaze shifted to Lin yuelan and Jiang Zhennan. He had already guessed their identities, but he still pretended to be puzzled and asked, ” may I know who the two of you are? ”

County Magistrate Zhou immediately said to old master Zhang in a dignified manner, ” they are Wencai’s friends, miss Lin and young master Nan. This is Miss Lin, the owner of Ni Lai Wo Wang restaurant. You can just call her Miss Lin!”

Hearing County Magistrate Zhou personally introduce their identities, the expression on Zhang Xingwang’s face clearly froze!
