Chapter 212 What Does It Have to Do with Her?
The carriage moved slowly on the bluestone pavement, making a rhythmic "clack clack" sound, which combined with the "creak clack" sound of the turning wheels to form a melody with a unique rhythm.
There are many pedestrians in the downtown area, and there are various vendors on the roadside, shouting one after another:
"Tanghulu, a big, sweet bunch of tanghulu. Only five copper coins are needed. Five copper coins can buy a big, sweet bunch of tanghulu..."
"Little sugar man, little sugar man, beautiful and delicious little sugar man, come and take a look, come and take a look..."
"Beggar's chicken, beggar's chicken, five-spice spicy beggar's chicken..."
The shouting came in through the car window. The four people in the car looked calm, but each had their own thoughts.
Pei Wanwan's heart was itching. If Wanwan hadn't said that she had something important to do later, she really wanted to get off the car and go shopping. It had been many years since she last went shopping in Shangjing City. Now it has been almost a month since she came back, and she hasn't even gone out shopping once.
She moved to the window, reached out to lift the car curtain, looked outside at the vendors shouting, watched people coming and going, and suddenly exclaimed "Huh".
Pei Wanwan gestured towards Shen Wanwan, asking her to come over and take a look. "Wanwan, come here quickly. Doesn't that girl look a lot like Madam Shen?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wanwan's breathing stagnated, her body stiffened slightly, and she quickly moved to the window, following Pei Wanwan's gaze.
Pei Wanwan waved her hand in disappointment, "I'm a step too late. There were too many people and I couldn't see which direction they were going."
"Did you really see it?"
Pei Wanwan nodded. "My eyesight is excellent. I can't be wrong. The girl is about the same age as us. She is wearing coarse cloth. I can tell at a glance that she looks about 70% like Madam Shen."
Shen Wanwan's gaze was still outside, staring carefully at every face coming and going. Not to mention those who looked 70% or 80% like Madam Shen, she didn't even see many who were of the same age as them.
Pei Wanwan couldn't stand Shen Wanwan's serious expression; it seemed too old-fashioned. "Wanwan, stop looking. Maybe I'm just dazzled and misjudged you."
Of course she knew what Wanwan was expecting. Just like her first reaction when she saw that face, she also suspected that the girl was the real Shen Wanshu. But she disappeared in the blink of an eye. Could she still make her appear again?
Shen Wanwan said nothing, quietly left the window, and sat back in her original seat with her eyelids drooped, wondering what she was thinking.
Feiyue and Chuntao, who were sitting in the front, looked at each other and saw suspicion on each other's faces.
Miss Pei's reaction was really strange.
It was normal for Miss Shen to react excitedly when she saw someone who looked like Mrs. Shen on the street, after all, she was her adoptive mother. But Miss Pei was obviously much more excited than Miss Shen. What was she excited about?
Feiyue was fine, as she knew that Miss Shen and Miss Pei already knew each other, and today's encounter was just a play they had agreed on.
Chuntao's mind was filled with a big question mark. Could it be that the relationship between her young lady and this Miss Pei was too good, that she even revealed that she was not of the Shen family's bloodline?
But Miss Pei was also puzzled. What did it have to do with her whether the other person looked like the prime minister's wife?
Looking at her reaction just now, someone who didn’t know would have thought she was the daughter of the prime minister’s family.
The carriage swayed for who knows how long before finally stopping in front of a shop.
This is a shop selling rice, and the plaque on it reads "Yueqing Rice".
What’s strange is that the shop is located in the best location on this commercial street, but it is deserted.
What is even more puzzling is that, apart from a small amount of musty old brown rice, the huge shop is almost empty, which is really intriguing.
The guy sitting behind the counter was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a round face and head, thick shoulders and an even rounder waist. His head was nodding and he was dozing off and on.
When Pei Wanwan saw the situation in the shop, the anger in her heart surged.
She walked up to the counter and slammed her hand on it. "You earn a pretty good salary every month, and this is how you work?"
There was a loud "bang" and the man was startled and jumped up from his chair.
The waiter saw clearly that the person standing in front of him was only a girl of about fifteen years old. He immediately became angry and glared at her, "Where did this wild girl come from? How dare you run into the Marquis's rice store and make trouble?"
"The rice store in the Marquis' Mansion? Who told you this is the rice store in the Marquis' Mansion?"
The plaque at the door clearly reads Yueqing Rice and Grain Store. This person is either illiterate or a lackey of Pei Zhazha!
