Chapter 127: I Can Afford to Support the Hua Family

The Yunlai Restaurant was located on the main street, occupying a large area. Its three-story building stood out among the typical two-story structures in the area.

The private rooms on the third floor of the Yunlai Restaurant had always been the most popular, requiring a reservation at least two months in advance. Without a certain status, one couldn't even access the third floor.

It was no wonder everyone wanted to go to the third floor. In the entire capital, the only establishment that could rival the imperial palace was the Yunlai Restaurant. The satisfaction of fulfilling this psychological desire, easily obtained by spending money, not only showcased generosity but also earned prestigious reputations effortlessly.

After learning about the Yunlai Restaurant, Hua Zhi wanted to give a thumbs up to the mastermind behind it, as they had grasped human weaknesses, making it a place where guests would come like clouds.

Hua Bailin had come for this matter and said after hearing it, "Eldest sister, I will accompany you."

"According to the imperial law, students and  government officials are not allowed to engage in commerce."

"But..."

Hua Zhi tilted her head slightly and looked at him, "Do you dislike with your eldest sister appearing in public?"

Hua Bailin fell silent for a moment, "I won't mind how you feel, I just... don't want others gossiping about you."

"I only care about how you see it. What others think or say doesn't concern me." Hua Zhi laughed freely. She had emerged from the maze of right and wrong and didn't mind stepping back into it. With a tough exterior, harming her wasn't easy.

Hua Bailin realized he might never catch up with his elder sister. If he didn't make an effort, he might lose the privilege of calling her eldest sister.

"In the next few days, I'll be handling this matter, you go teach."

"Yes, eldest sister."

Hua Zhi reached out to adjust her brother's collar, "With such a large household and so many people inside and out, although I manage the household, with only two eyes and ears, there may be places I overlook. You must pay attention for me, especially in matters related to family studies, they must not be neglected."

"Yes, eldest sister, I will."

"And Sui'an, you must help him integrate into the Hua family, to become part of the brothers and sisters, make him feel like he is not just a guest here."

Hua Bailin nodded vigorously. His father was far away, yet they still cared for each other. His cousin's father was nearby but acted like an enemy. Comparatively, his cousin's situation was worse, without anyone to rely on except for a mother who needed his care.

But it didn't matter, things would get better in the future. The Hua family was much better than the Yang family.

Soon, Du Cheng returned with good news. Bai Mingxia had agreed to meet her at the Yunlai Restaurant the next morning.

When Hua Zhi was about to leave, no one stopped her, but Zhu Shi forcefully placed a veil on her head to avoid unnecessary trouble, allowing her mother to do as she pleased.

As she was about to board the carriage, a horse came galloping towards her, and Hua Zhi recognized it as Mr. Lu, so she stopped and waited for him.

Lin Ying seemed very close to Hua Zhi and always approached her directly.

Hua Zhi lifted a corner of the veil and patted Lin Ying's head, saying, "Mr. Lu, what brings you here?"

"I'll go with you."
