wedding dress

Chapter 95
Just after eating two yuan, Zhao Lu asked outside, "Your sister is back?"

Xiaodong said: "I'm back, brother come in quickly."

Zhao Lu came in with a suitcase, and said with a smile: "I ordered someone to buy the chestnut soup from Yuanlongfang, and my sister will try it soon."

Uh……

Zhao Lu was a little surprised when he saw the opened box on the table: "Huh? My sister also bought it?"

"Actually, I didn't buy it. Brother Qin Lie sent someone to send this box."

Zhao Lu's smile remained unchanged: "We all want to go together. The younger sister can keep it and eat slowly."

After eating all of these, her stomach would burst.

"I can't eat so much."

"There are so many people in your yard, let's eat together." Zhao Lu opened the box he brought for Xiaodong to eat, and handed over the box Qin Lie bought to Hu Shi: "Mother Hu, take it, share some with Hongfu black tea, and try it out."

On the way, Xiaodong had already eaten Liuwei crisps and mung bean cakes, and two pieces of chestnut soup, and her stomach was already full. Seeing that Zhao Lu wanted to stuff her mouth again, she hurriedly diverted the conversation by drinking tea.

"Brother, I met the second concubine and the second prince today. There are two people in front of one another, one is tearful, the other smells of alcohol, I wonder if the couple had a quarrel."

Zhao Lu asked, "Where did we meet?"

"When I came out of Changchun Palace and went back to Jiyutang, I was at Wangxianlou—" Xiaodong was also a little puzzled when he said this, where did the second prince drink this wine?Beyond Wangxian Tower is Liuguang Pond. What he drank was wine, not water from the pond.

Zhao Lu thought for a while: "I heard that the second prince was reprimanded again today, and he is probably in a bad mood. If you can avoid him in the future, avoid him, and if you can't avoid him, don't talk too much."

Xiaodong nodded in agreement, and handed a piece of chestnut soup to Zhao Lu: "Brother, eat."

Zhao Lu immediately smiled, and ate the piece of chestnut soup with Jiudong's hand: "My sister wants to like it, and I will send someone to buy it tomorrow."

"It's not uncommon to eat every day."

King An came back early today. When Xiaodong and Zhao Lu entered the study room, they saw a young man in a sky blue gown under the corridor. I have seen it.The man said softly: "I have seen the prince and princess."

Zhao Lu nodded and said, "There is no need to be too polite."

Entering the house, he bowed to King An. Wang An smiled and pointed to a cardboard box on the table and said, "I remember you like to eat. I bought some chestnut soup at Yuanlongfang in the afternoon."

Uh--

Xiaodong's hiccups now smell like chestnuts, and her mouth is full after eating, but An Wang smiled and looked at her slightly, Xiaodong coughed, and went to pick up the box: "I'll take it back and eat slowly."

Yuanlongfang's business is really booming today. My whole family takes turns to take care of his business.

Xiaodong thought of the person outside the door: "Father, who is that person outside?"

"Oh, his surname is Zhang." The person next to him didn't say anything.

Xiaodong went back with a box of chestnut soup again, and Mrs. Hu smiled when she saw it: "The princess is confused with chestnut soup today, where did this come from?"

"Father asked someone to buy it." Xiaodong frowned and rubbed his belly: "I can save dinner today."

What a sweet annoyance.

"By the way, I saw a person outside my father's study just now, and I felt a little unfamiliar. I heard that the surname is Zhang. Has anyone come to the mansion recently?"

Hu thought for a while: "I haven't heard of it. Why, can he offend the princess?"

"No, but I always feel that I have seen this person somewhere, and the voice is somewhat familiar, but I have obviously never seen this person."

Hu said with a smile: "Is there any similarity between him and someone the Princess has met before?"

This makes sense.But Xiaodong didn't know many people, so he thought about each one of them, and they were all right.

Xiaodong didn't think about things that she couldn't figure out, she only drank a bowl of soup for dinner, and her stomach was still uncomfortable, so she went for a walk in the garden to digest food.Afraid of the chilly night, Mrs. Hu brought her a long coat, and told Hongfu to keep the tea lanterns steady and not to go by the pool.

The moon and stars are few and far between, but you can see the way even without lanterns.Black Tea's voice is crisp and clear, and he loves to talk and laugh. He told several jokes along the way to relieve Xiaodong's boredom.Hongfu couldn't help laughing too, and felt a little undignified after laughing.She is now the most useful maid around Xiaodong, and she always has high standards for herself, and she wants to show off to others, it's been a long time since she laughed so hard.

"As long as you talk a lot, I don't know where you heard such slang and vulgar talk."

"Everyone has a good laugh. We've finished eating early so we can go back to sleep. Elder sister, don't carry it, anyway, there is no one else here, so who would laugh at us?" Hong Fu stroked her chin and narrowed her eyes with endless aftertaste: "Yuan Long The pastry is really well-deserved, and the dim sum is really delicious, and the pastries made by the cooks in our house are square and exquisite, but they don’t have the same taste as others.”

Hongfu also said, "That mung bean pancake can actually be made in our house."

"Anyway, it's different. I think the one in the house is too sweet. It's okay to eat one piece, but if you eat more, you'll get tired. The ones they make are sweet and refreshing. Even if you give me a box, I can eat it."

"You want to eat a box, but it costs four qian silver. How many boxes do you have enough for a month?"

Xiaodong pursed her lips and smiled, the gauze lamp shone with a dim yellow light, swaying, heard the sound of footsteps ahead, Xiaodong stopped, Hongfu took a step forward, and raised the lamp to shine a light on it.

In the shadow of the lamp, Qin Lie's face brightened and then darkened.

Xiaodong was a little surprised: "It's so late, why are you in the garden?"

"I just came out from your brother's place." Qin Lie walked closer, and Xiaodong suddenly felt quite safe—the wind was blocked.

"Have you eaten the chestnut soup you bought?"

Xiaodong now wants to burp when he hears the word chestnut, and said with a wry smile, "Don't mention it, you bought it, my brother bought it, and my father bought it when he came back. My anger smells like chestnuts now, so I went out for a walk to digest my food." , or I won’t be able to sleep at night.”

Qin Lie laughed loudly: "You won't eat it all in one sitting, will you?"

Xiaodong shook his head, Qin Lie pointed to where he came from and said, "The sweet-scented osmanthus is in bloom over there, why don't you go there?"

"Alright."

Qin Lie walked with her for a while, Xiaodong asked casually, "By the way, what kind of business are you doing in the capital?"

"Do a little bit of everything. People in the capital like new gadgets from other places, and outsiders admire the prosperity of the capital. I will bring things from other places, and then transport things from the capital."

This is very simple and easy to understand.When Xiaodong thought about it, it was true.Leather goods from the north and silk from the south, people in the capital can't do without these at any time.And people from other places yearn for the capital, even if it is an ordinary makeup powder, as long as it is replaced with a delicate box, let alone an inner palace powder, the value will naturally increase several times.In fact, the things built in are limited, so how can there be so many that can be circulated and sold?But in this name, those who sell fans earn money, and those who buy fans are happy.

A scene emerged in Xiaodong's mind: Qin Lie carried the salesman's load, striding forward, shouting loudly, "Shanghao Gongfen Embroidery Thread——".

Cough, I can't think about it, it's too shocking.

Why is it so late these days... Scratching my head, it's really hard to adjust my schedule.
