Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 66 Cherry Cheese

After the flowering period, it is difficult to want such a good tea.

The old lady nodded secretly.

A good trick.

This little girl is smart!
Although he gave the other side a way back, he did not give up his own interests.

"Miss San is more thoughtful." Mrs. Qiao laughed, "It's just as you said. By the way, I don't know how much a pound of this flower tea is charged? I'll pay the deposit first."

Zhao Xiwei was stopped.

When she was in the countryside, she followed her mother to make fragrant drinks, but they were sold to villagers to quench their thirst. The production process was not that complicated, and the price could be high.

Now that she is suddenly asked to make an offer, she really doesn't know how to open it.

Seeing her in a dilemma, Mrs. Qiao said straightforwardly: "That's it, the Mingqian tea sold at the tea shop opposite Honglu Temple is 18 taels a catty. I'll give the third lady 20 taels. How about it?"

20 taels a catty, ten catties in total, and 200 taels in the account.

Zhao Xiwei's monthly money in the mansion is only two taels a month.

That is to say, for this amount of money, she needs to stay in the house for ten years without eating or drinking to save enough.

She was a little excited in her heart, but on the surface she was still calm: "I'm not sure. Making scented tea depends on the flowering period and the weather. If you can't grasp these two, Madam can't do it even if you offer a price of 1000 taels." come out……"

What Mrs. Qiao lacked most was money. She was afraid that Zhao Xiwei would regret it, and said, "I know it's not easy, but what can I do? Those Hu merchants love to drink this scented tea. For the prosperity and stability of Wei, I'll offer Miss San a price of 22 taels, what do you think?"

Zhao Xi was stunned for a while.

In terms of articulation, Mrs. Qiao is the best.

It's just a flower tea business, how can it be linked to the prosperity and stability of Dawei.

But I thought about it again, serving these Hu Shang envoys with delicious food and drinking, and letting them actively befriend the Great Wei, can indeed be regarded as serving the imperial court.

Zhao Xi smiled and refused: "Since you are loyal to the imperial court, how can you open your mouth like a lion, Madam Qiao just pay 20 taels."

Mrs. Qiao laughed: "As expected of the miss of the Xiangfu, the words are refreshing!"

After speaking, he got up and said goodbye to the old lady: "There are important things in the house, so I will leave first."

Both deals went incredibly smoothly.

Mrs. Yuan, who has been in business all year round, couldn't help but wonder: "Old Mrs., you see that I am right, Sister Wei just followed the Prime Minister. This brain and eloquence are all top-notch!"

Zhao Xiwei saw that she was willing to let go of her body and take the initiative to show her affection, so she stopped caring about the past, and gave a big step: "Second aunt is too famous, you are the real Zhuge, the whole Chang'an business. , who doesn't know the second aunt's name."

The old lady laughed happily: "It's all good, it's all good! It's a blessing for my old bones to have juniors like you!"

Zhao Xiwei and Mrs. Yuan looked at each other and laughed.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shi's hostility towards him would be resolved so easily.

Madam Qiao, it really is a bridge.

With her as an intermediary, Yuan Shi and himself have a mutually dependent alliance.
People are all for profit.

Maybe some people don't care about feelings, but no one cares about interests.

Sometimes, this kind of interest-bound relationship is the most stable relationship.

Zhao Xiwei let out a sigh of relief, and had more courage and confidence in the future.

The old lady smiled and told Mother Zhou: "Go to the big kitchen to urge, is the cherry cheese I want ready?"

Zhao Xiwei was a little surprised.

Cherry cheese she knew.

When she was a child, she loved to eat it. Every time the cherries were ripe, her mother would make them for her to eat.

Although there is no ice cubes and sugar, the taste is sweet and sour, very appetizing and satisfying.

Unexpectedly, the old lady also likes to eat.

Mammy Zhou smiled and said, "I know that you love your granddaughter, so my servant will rush her."

Mrs. Yuan became a big business, and she was in a good mood, so she pretended to be jealous: "The ancestors are partial, and when you have a granddaughter, you don't care about your daughter-in-law!"

Zhao Xi looked over in confusion.

The old lady smiled and said, "Concubine Shu brought a basket of cherries. I thought that you only ate mutton yesterday, so I ordered the kitchen to make sweet and sour cherry cheese to give you an appetizer to relieve your tiredness."

A warm current slowly flowed through, making people feel inexplicably hot.

It turned out that this is the feeling of being loved by a grandmother.

While talking, Mother Zhou came in with a tray.

The jasper-colored small plate and the silver-white glazed tall glass were filled with dark red cherry pulp, filled with bright red cherry fruit, poured a layer of fragrant cheese, and covered with a layer of snow-white smoothie.

The combination of red and white, through the delicate and small glass cup, is like a world of ice and snow, shiny and transparent.

After using the cherry cheese, after talking for a while, Zhao Xiwei got up and said goodbye: "It's time for Grandma Sun to teach, and the granddaughter will not accompany Grandma."

The old lady knew that her schoolwork was heavy, so she didn't stay any longer, and only told something like "you must study well, don't be lazy, and don't let down the princess' heart".

Zhao Xiwei got up and lifted the curtain of the door, but was stopped again.

I saw the old lady smiled and said: "In the future, please be safe. It's not so early in the morning. Now the weather is so cold, it's good to sleep a little longer in the morning. Baozhu, where are the two best deerskin velvets in my box? Ming Take it to make a new mattress for Sister Wei, the Rose Garden is the most gloomy and cold, she's a girl's family, and her body is frozen and the root of the disease is so good!"

Zhao Xi was slightly startled.

The Rose Garden is the furthest away from the old lady's Rong'an Hall. The old lady originally arranged for her to live there, and she also deliberately kept a distance from her.

And now the old lady is like this, is she feeling sorry for these unfair things?
But she soon regained her smile and bowed her knees in a salute: "Thank you granddaughter for your love!"

Whether it was a deliberate snub, or an uncontrollable concern, this old man was her grandmother by blood.

She chose to face it calmly, neither sad nor happy.

Zhao Xiwei left the Rong'an Hall and walked towards the Rose Garden.

It was rainy and cold, and the bluestone pavement was wet.

Looking at the weather, Zhao Xiwei decided to take a shortcut back from the garden.

Unexpectedly, just after leaving the veranda, I heard the sound of crying and scolding from a pavilion behind the rockery.

"That wild girl actually hooked up with the people in Liushu Hutong!" The scolding voice was very sharp, "I must go and tell Grandma Ming and break her dog's legs!"

It was Zhao Chengyu.

"Fifth Miss, you can't tell the old lady! It's not good for everyone if you make a big fuss!" The one who was crying was Pearl, with a bit of pleading and anxiety.

Jinxiu, who was following next to him, heard it very clearly, and his heart trembled.

How did this pearl get mixed up with Zhao Chengyu!
Confused!
　It makes me want to drink milk tea... so greedy!
