Chapter 221: Swear Not To Be A Concubine (3)_1
Cai Wei asked in surprise, "You’ve come all this way just to take me to Bianzhou Prefecture?"
The man paused for a moment, then casually said, "Our young master had once ordered five hundred jin of cumin from you, which was scheduled to be delivered these few days. I wonder if it’s convenient for you now? If it is, that would be great. If not, we can delay the delivery for a few more days too."
Cai Wei suddenly realized, slapped her forehead and chuckled, "Look at my memory. The delivery was supposed to be made yesterday, and I forgot about it. I’m truly sorry. Wait here, I’m going to check on the goods."
With that, she cheerfully turned around, took out the key to open the door of the restaurant, and walked in.
Of course, she didn’t go in to check the goods. As soon as she entered the restaurant, she immediately took out the five bags of cumin that were ready in her space. Then, she returned to the entrance and called those few people in to take their goods.
The man, accompanied by a few little boys, carried the five bags of cumin to the cart. He bid her a polite farewell and rode off.
Cai Wei breathed a sigh of relief. When that man just said he was waiting to take her to Bianzhou Prefecture, she was truly frightened. If Big Brother Huo really sent someone to pick her up specially for her, she would really doubt his motives. However, clearly, they were here to collect the goods. They were merely giving her a generous gift as a courtesy for the Lunar New Year. Since Big Brother Huo was a wealthy man, it was only expected that he would be generous.
When she returned to the backyard, her mom and dad were anxiously waiting for her. Seeing her return, they both stood up and asked hurriedly, "Did you find out?"
Cai Wei nodded, having no choice but to lie again. She said, "They said that Young Master Huo gifted us such a huge present out of gratitude because I gave him the secret recipe for the grilled skewers. So, mom and dad, you can accept this big gift without any worries!"
