161. Test Your Ability

"Our store is closing soon and we won't be hiring anymore."

Wen Ranran spread her hands and explained.

Since Cheng Fenglou left, she has been running the store alone. Now that the county prince's palace is not so short of money, there is no need to open Baixiao Pavilion anymore.

She will go to the capital with Xia Lishuang to attend the Dragon Boat Festival banquet in a while, so it is appropriate to take this opportunity to close the door.

The girl was stunned for a moment, "When will it close?"

"It's just about these two months."

"I may have to go home by then. Concubine, please kindly take me in!" The girl stared at her sincerely.

Wen Ranran held her head and thought for a while, then asked, "Then what do you know?"

"I have brains and can help you investigate the case." The girl said confidently.

Wen Ranran narrowed her eyes.

This sounds like no one has any brains!

"Then let me test you!"

She grabbed the book on the table, flipped through it twice, and saw an event.

"It just so happens that Lao Zhang next door suspects that there is a wild man outside my wife. Please help investigate."

Next door is a china shop.

Lao Zhang has a toad face, but he is married to a very good-looking wife named Hu, whose beauty is famous throughout the alley.

Recently, Mrs. Hu has been sneaking out every night. Lao Zhang has sent people to follow her, but they are lost every time, which makes her very distressed.

The girl smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, but I need to see this lady's room first."



At night.

Wen Ranran followed the girl and squatted at the back door of Lao Zhang's house. Jiang Tang sat boredly on the big tree where they were hiding, watching the moon move slowly in the sky and listening to the chirping of cicadas in his ears.

Why did he have to be responsible for Wen Ranran's safety as soon as he came back?

And then accompany her here to investigate such a trivial matter?!

It was nearly midnight when the back door was opened, and Mr. Hu walked out in blue clothes. She was dressed in a flashy dress. She had a red rope tied with copper coins on her hand and a wooden box on her back. She looked around and then followed her.

The base of the wall quickly penetrated into the darkness.

The girl looked at Pingting's figure and was stunned for a moment.

Isn't that person Hu Jiyue?

Just as she was dazed, Wen Ranran's urging came to her ears. The girl came back to her senses and hurriedly chased after her.

Jiang Tang jumped down and lazily followed the two of them.

After following him halfway through the alley, sure enough, Mr. Hu disappeared.

Wen Ranran looked at the doors on the left and right, and didn't ask Jiang Tang, who obviously knew about it, and just waited for the girl.

"This way."

Almost without hesitation, the girl opened the door at hand and walked in quickly.

This is an ordinary courtyard.

"What for?!"

The door directly opposite opened, and a young woman came out. She was wearing a tube top skirt and a coat outside. She must have climbed out of bed in a hurry.

The girl said: "Sorry, our dog ran in. Could you please look for it?"

As a result, the woman frowned, took two steps forward to the yard, and drove him away.

"I don't think you are serious people. Leave quickly, or I will report you to the police!"

Wen Ranran and the other three had no choice but to retreat.

The girl looked at the high pavilion behind the house and said, "Let's go there directly!"

Wen Ranran raised her eyes and looked.

Wow, it’s such a familiar place!

"Camellia Lane..." Jiang Tang read out the name of the store through gritted teeth.

Wen Ranran smiled and said, "Tangtang, Feng Qi misses you very much!"



Wen Ranran followed the girl back to the store, listened to her suggestion and put on men's clothes, preparing to go to Camellia Lane with the girl.

Jiang Tang stood at the door of the store with a look of rejection, "I'll wait for you here."

Wen Ranran crossed her arms and said, "If you wait in the store, you are sabotaging your work. If something happens to me, how will you tell the Prime Minister?"

"If you go to Camellia Lane, it will only happen to others."

"Are you going or not?"
