Harem Pampered Beauty: Chen Xiangxue

Chapter 54

The restaurant was quickly decorated, and the door was also beautifully made. The tables, chairs and benches inside were all made according to Xu Ze's vision. Murong Xue didn't have much hope at first, but who knew that she liked it after seeing it. Unexpectedly He has such good eyesight.After thinking about it, although he grew up in a monastery, he was born there after all, and his mother was the head of Nanlin County, so he naturally had good taste.

After everything was ready, Duyiwei chose an auspicious day to open.

Sure enough, as Yeluyan said, many people came on the opening day, and they didn't look like ordinary people in their clothes.Murong Xue didn't expect that he really meant what he said and called people to cheer him on.

Since Yeluyan was promised not to cook, nor to show that she was one of the owners in front of others, Murongxue sat in the teahouse across the street and watched her restaurant business flourish.

Seeing the diners coming in and out, Ding Xiang said excitedly: "Now our master is going to get rich."

Pei Lan said: "Young Master Xu takes the lead."

"Master Xu's is not our lady's."

Murong Xue hurriedly said: "Ah, Ding Xiang, what are you talking about?"

Ding Xiang stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Miss, Mr. Xu is warm-hearted and righteous, and he speaks nicely, unlike the prince who keeps a straight face all day long, and what he says can poison a person to death."

Murong Xue nodded her forehead: "Don't speak ill of him."

The three of them sat in the tea room till noon, when the last customer in the shop left, Murong Xue brought Lilac Peilan in.

The three shop assistants were tidying up. Xu Ze was sitting at the door, with a purple clay pot on the square table, a teacup in one hand, and a bill in the other. He seemed very devoted.

Murong Xue smiled, "I wish Mr. Xu a prosperous business and good luck."

"Axue, you're here." Xu Ze stood up, and handed her the account book in his hand with a smile, "Look, this is today's account entry."

Murong Xue was both surprised and delighted: "So many!"

Xu Ze smiled and said, "I didn't expect so many guests to come on the first day of opening."

Murong Xue smiled and said, "Have you eaten?"

"Nope, what about you?"

"Neither have I. I've been watching in the teahouse opposite, and I'm so hungry right now."

Xu Ze immediately ordered Xiao Cui, the waiter in the store: "Quickly ask Master Liu to cook some dishes."

Soon, the back kitchen brought three dishes and one soup.

The afternoon sun shines in, looking at Xu Ze's clean and bright face, and his pair of radiant eyes, Murong Xue thinks that he looks really good-looking, he doesn't look like a restaurant proprietor at all.Thinking of his life experience, I felt really sympathetic, so my eyes couldn't help but glow with maternal love.Looking at her gentle eyes, Xu Ze thought to himself, it doesn't matter if he drowns in the sparkling water of this lake.

The two of them sat in the afternoon sun, which seemed to be a time of tranquility.

Ding Xiang stood at the door watching, and quietly said to Pei Lan: "Oh, you said Miss and Mr. Xu, do they look like Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru?"

Pei Lan said, "It's very similar. It's also a husband-and-wife store. It feels like a good match."

There was a cold snort from behind.

When Perrin looked back, his face turned pale with fright.

"King, my lord."

Yeluyan said coldly: "Call Madam, I have something to say."

"Yes."

Ding Xiang hurried in and whispered a few words to Murong Xue.

Murong Xue was startled, and said to Xu Ze, "I'll go and come back."

Out of unique taste, Murong Xue saw Yeluyan standing under the platform with his back to her at a glance, perhaps because he helped a lot because the restaurant opened, looking at him today is particularly pleasing to the eye, only a tall and handsome back looks like The elegant demeanor is outstanding, the abundance is handsome.

Murong Xue walked behind him: "Thank you, my lord."

Yeluyan looked back at her.Probably because people are in good spirits on happy occasions, today she is extraordinarily beautiful and charming, her pink face is full of spring, her beautiful eyes are sparkling, she is vaguely the same as the Murong Xue I saw at Yiwei Restaurant that day, but it is a pity that when she saw him, there was no expression in her eyes. Colored light.

Isn't it amazing after watching too much?Then why every time he looks at her, he never gets tired of it?
This is too unfair, especially since there is still a handsome man sitting in the store at the moment, it is not impossible to like the new and dislike the old, so we must prevent it before it happens.So he reminded again: "Don't come to the store if you have nothing to do in the future, don't forget what you promised me."

"I haven't forgotten."

"Then go back."

In the name of his great help today, Murong Xuenian nodded obediently, and was about to leave with Lilac Peilan.

Yeluyan finally saw her, he was reluctant to let her go immediately, called her again, and said softly: "If you have anything to do, just come to the palace and ask the butler to do it for you."

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness. I will handle it myself, so as not to cause trouble to my lord."

Yeluyan said flatteringly: "It was just a moment of anger to say that you made trouble before, do you still hold grudges?"

Murong Xue said seriously: "You said that I'm short-legged, idiot and thick-skinned. I remember it. It's not to hold grudges. It's just to remind myself not to be too confident in life, otherwise I will fall badly."

Yeluyan: "...." He always pays attention to his words, but he is very casual in front of her, and likes to tease her. Seeing her pouting and getting angry, she is really delicate and cute.But she didn't expect that she kept it in her heart, thinking that he really looked down on her.

On the second day of the restaurant's opening, Murong Xue invited Zhao's family to dinner, and set up a separate private room, and asked the chef to cook a table of dishes for Zhao Zhenniang's family.

Murong Lin offered a toast to Father Zhao.

Father Zhao thanked: "I didn't expect that you and I are really destined. The neighbor came to the capital from Yi County."

Murong Lin thought to himself, if it wasn't for your daughter's "good intentions", we would have landed here all the way from there.

"How is Concubine Shu's affairs going?"

Mother Zhao wiped her eye circles when she heard this, looking sad and desperate.Father Zhao whispered to Murong Lin: "I have sent 6000 taels of silver to Eunuch Su who is next to the emperor intermittently." His words were full of regret.

Murong Lin comforted: "Money is something outside of the body."

Murong Xue also said: "Uncle, don't worry, with the princess here, sister Zhenniang will definitely return her favor."

Father Zhao sighed and said: "The princess is being raised by Concubine Qiao's side now, I'm afraid she will only adopt her adoptive mother in the future. Alas, now I just want my real mother to be safe."

"Yes, it's good to be safe."

After a while, Father Zhao came over to announce the good news, saying that Zhao Zhenniang had come out of the cold palace, but now she was a prostitute.

Murong Xue comforted: "As long as you are safe, my sister also started from a court lady to the position of Concubine Shu step by step."

Father Zhao nodded: "It's better to be a neighbor from the village. Thanks to your father's help these days."

After the restaurant opened, business has been very good.Originally, Murong Xue thought that the restaurant would be opened by herself and only asked Xu Ze to share the money, but who knew that after the opening, it was Xu Ze who was busy with other things, and she was left idle.She was so sorry that she went to the store with Murong Lin every afternoon to have a look.

Murong Lin and Xu Ze have similar temperaments, and they have become friends for years, often chatting and playing chess together.

Murong Xue discovered that if a man treats you sincerely, he will also treat your family sincerely. He will not be like Yeluyan who hardly sees Muronglin after getting married, let alone chatting and playing chess with him.In the past, when he loved with all his heart, he could not care about it, but when he calmed down, and compared with Xu Ze, it showed that Yeluyan didn't care.

At the beginning of the store opening, Yeluyan often came to ask about the situation in the store, but Murong Xue felt that he was here to monitor whether she stayed with Xu Ze for too long or got too close.So he deliberately kept a distance from Xu Ze, stayed in the store for a while and then left, lest Yeluyan cause trouble again.

After a long time, Yeluyan felt relieved.That's good too, since she is busy making money by opening a restaurant, she won't have the desire to leave Beijing.What he was most afraid of was that she would risk everything and run away as before, even if she would fight to the death and break the net.

He was too exhausted to go after her, because his marriage with Yu Pingting was imminent.

Murong Xue heard the news from Pei Jian.The four admirals were going to attend King Zhaoyang's wedding, and asked his subordinates what gift to give, which happened to be overheard by Pei Jian who was at the side.

Pei Jian returned home after taking a break, and told Murong Xue the news.

Murong Xue was startled suddenly, and after a while, as if waking up from a dream, she smiled and said, "Okay, congratulations to him." Her hoarse voice was much better after taking the medicine, but this congratulations seemed like Mixed with heavy river sand.

This result has been known for a long time, just like the day when the sentence is pronounced, I have been waiting for it every day, and today is finally here.She was so happy that she was on the verge of tears.

"Let's drink and celebrate tonight."

Coincidentally, that night, Xu Ze also came.It was already winter, and the four of them sat around the fire.

Pei Jian hadn't come back for a long time, facing the delicious food and wine, she couldn't help but feast on it.

Murong Lin was also very happy. Yeluyan's marriage should not prevent them from leaving the capital. When spring comes, they can return to their hometown in the south of the Yangtze River.

Several people chatted and laughed, and drank all the wine in the jar.Perhaps Xu Ze was born with a lot of energy. Although he just started drinking, now he can drink half a bottle.

Both Pei Jian and Murong Lin were drunk, and Murong Xue sent Xu Ze outside the gate of the courtyard.I don't know when, fine snow floated in the sky, like catkins.

A wind lantern at the gate of the courtyard reflects the sparse and erratic fine snow, and it is almost impossible to see how it melts on the shoulders of the person, as if the feelings of a person are cast on a person somehow.

Murong Xue is like a crabapple flower standing pretty among the willow catkins, with a delicate complexion, high spirits, rosy cherry lips, and a bright and charming smile.

Xu Ze looked at her, and said softly, "Axue, you are not happy today."

Murong Xue was startled, and then smiled sweetly: "Why, I am very happy today."

"If you have something on your mind, I'm willing to share it." Under the light, his eyes were sharp and sharp, as if he wanted to see through her mind.

Murong Xue's heart suddenly moved, but her smile became brighter and brighter, "Thank you, I really have nothing on my mind."

Xu Ze smiled, his handsome features were incomparably clear in the night snow. He stretched out his hand to hold Luoxue in his palm, and said softly, "I like snow very much."

Murong Xue hurriedly said "Young Master Xu, go slowly", and quickly closed the door, as if he was about to say something more straightforward if it was a moment later.

Baixue dislikes spring and evening, so she wears trees in the garden and makes flying flowers.

She covered her heart, raised her face, and let the cold snow fall on her eye sockets and bridge of her nose, and finally suppressed the burning pain...

In the middle of the night, Ding Xiang got up at night and walked under Murong Xue's window, vaguely hearing the sound of tearing cloth, very slow, very soft, vaguely absent.She smiled, how could it be, the young lady was so happy today, that voice must be the wind with snow in it.
