Not to mention being squeezed together with a man like this, even if it was eating at the same table, it was the first time she did this after she arrived at Zhang Nuo's house.

But there is no turning back when the bow is opened, and they have already sat down, so there is no reason to regret it, Li Qingmei thought, anyway, this is the husband she believes, let alone sitting next to each other, she will have to share the same bed in the future , What is this intimacy.

Thinking of this, Li Qingmei was not so stiff at all, she squinted her eyes secretly, glanced back carefully and quickly, and instantly saw Hongyu snuggling in Zhang Nuo's arms, and then looked at her with a meaningful smile. looking at her.

This is a bit embarrassing, this sneak peek is still discovered, but what does this girl mean?Is this showing off or provocation?

With Li Qingmei's temper, how could it be so easy to admit defeat?

Anyway, I've already discovered it. It's better to look at it openly than to look at it secretly. Anyway, she doesn't steal or steal, she just wants to find a good husband, and she is justified in saying that it is broken.

But as soon as she turned her head, she saw Hongyu pouted to the side with a smile!

Li Qingmei didn't realize it at first, but after looking and looking in the direction of Hongyu's pouting mouth, she realized that Hongyu was actually pointing to Zhang Nuo's empty shoulder?

Oh, what do you mean?What's the point of this?

Li Qingmei hesitated for a second, then leaned forward happily, and rubbed it very directly, finding a comfortable position, and took the initiative to take Zhang Nuo's big hand from behind and put it on it on his shoulders.

Zhang Nuo was half asleep and half awake, and suddenly felt that there was someone more in his arms. He opened his eyes and looked down to see this little Meizi girl whom he just met yesterday. He couldn't laugh or cry!

Didn't it mean that the atmosphere in ancient times was very conservative, and the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was not so open, could it?

However, Zhang Nuo was still a little secretly complacent. This damned charm could never be concealed. There was no other way. He was handsome and outstanding.

Thinking of Li Qingmei's name, Zhang Nuo immediately thought of a poem by Li Bai, and then very consciously tightened his arms around the two beauties, reciting in a low voice,

"The concubine's first hair was covered, and there was a drama in front of the folded flower door. Lang rode a bamboo horse and went around the bed to grow green plums. Living together in Changqian, the two children have no doubts, and the fourteen is a gentleman's wife, and the shame has never been revealed.

Bow your head to the dark wall, and call it once a thousand times.At the fifteenth day, I raised my eyebrows, wishing to share the dust and ashes.How can you go to the husband's platform if you keep the letter of holding the pillar? "

"Sixteen monarchs traveled far away, Qutang Yanyudui. In May, you can't touch it, and the sound of apes mourns in the sky. Walking late in front of the door, one by one is covered with green moss.

The moss is too deep to sweep, and the autumn leaves fall early.In August, butterflies come and fly to the grass in the West Garden.Feeling this hurts my concubine's heart, sitting and worrying about my beauty.Get off the three buses in the morning and evening, and pre-order the books and newspapers home.It is not far to meet each other until Changfengsha. "

Chapter 180 Chang'an meets an acquaintance

Li Bai's poems have always been characterized by grandeur and romance. In the Tang Dynasty, it can be said to be a nuclear weapon in the literary world.

No, Li Qingmei and Hongyu's eyes lit up as soon as they said it, especially Li Qingmei, when they heard the sentence in the middle, "Lang rode a bamboo horse to make green plums around the bed", they knew it was written for her.

She is not a commoner woman who is illiterate, so she naturally knows what this poem is about. Isn't this the story of two childhood sweethearts who grew up together and got married.

As for the bamboo horse, it is the love of the little boys in the Tang Dynasty. No matter if they are wealthy or common people, as long as the family is not too poor, they will make a simple bamboo horse for the children to ride and play.

At least she has seen her elder brother, younger brother, and nephews play the game of riding bamboo horses in the palace, and the so-called green plums are nothing more than a game of throwing green plums. That's how she got her name, it seems to be her mother. When she was pregnant with her, she liked to eat green plums, and always loved to throw green plums at her father.

So after she was born, she was given the nickname Qingmei to commemorate this event.

Originally, it symbolizes beautiful love. When Zhang Nuo said this, it is more like describing the innocence of two people who are in love, from the innocence of childhood sweethearts, to the joy of newlyweds in "Fourteenth King's Wife", and then to "Ten The thought of "Six Monarchs Traveling Far Away" seems to be the most wonderful first half of a woman's life.

Silently reciting this poem, Li Qingmei couldn't help being crazy!

Zhang Nuo closed his eyes again triumphantly, and practiced the exercises silently, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, no matter how he looked at it, the word "Se" was written all over it.

When the carriage arrived at West Market, Li Qingmei was still in a daze, this girl was completely fascinated by this poem.

This is originally written from a woman's perspective, and it describes not only the pure childhood friendship, but also the sweetness of newlyweds, as well as the longing for parting after marriage. .

Zhang Nuo couldn't let her stay in a daze, he patted her on the shoulder, seeing Li Qingmei's dazed look, Zhang Nuo was also funny, and reminded with a smile,

"You can go back and think about poetry, let's go shopping!"

Only then did Li Qingmei realize that she was actually cuddled in Zhang Nuo's arms all the way, she blushed immediately, she pretended to be nonchalant, got up and straightened a strand of hair hanging from her ear, and said seriously,

"Then let's go down!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhang Nuo to speak, he quickly opened the thick car curtain and jumped down.

Zhang Nuo and Hongyu looked at each other with a smile, not to mention Li Qingmei's embarrassment just now, got up and left.

The car was parked directly at the entrance of Zhang's Restaurant in West Market. The people in the restaurant naturally knew their own owner's carriage. After all, this carriage did not need to be marked, and this model alone was the only one, so he hurried in and informed Da Zhuang.

When Zhang Nuo got off the car, Da Zhuang had already run over and made a deep bow,

"I've seen the owner!"

Zhang Nuo looked at Da Zhuang and the fellows following with a smile,

"Get up, I'll come and take a look, try your handicraft by the way, you cook some special dishes at noon, let me see your progress!"

Da Zhuang hurriedly agreed that Zhang Nuo was not only his boss, but also his master chef. Although he did not perform the apprenticeship ceremony, he signed the contract of selling himself, and he was already a member of the Zhang family.

Now that Zhang Nuo wanted to test his skills, he naturally couldn't refuse, and he had to prepare well. He also planned to learn a few more new dishes.

Zhang Nuo walked in first with his hands behind his back, while Hong Yu and Li Qingmei laughed and whispered behind them.

Seeing Li Qingmei's blushing face, I'm afraid she was being teased by Hongyu.

The first floor of Zhang's restaurant only sells wine, and it has made a name for itself in Chang'an City for several months, and it hardly has to worry about selling it!

If it hadn't been for Zhang Nuo's request that the display wine on the first floor must not be out of stock, I'm afraid that this wine would be sold out.

Compared with the turbid low-alcohol wine produced by this ancient method of brewing, Zhang's restaurant's wine has far surpassed it in terms of appearance and taste.

No wonder it sells so well!

However, after a period of time, when the brewery with a large number of new equipment is opened, the output will not only increase tenfold?At that time, there is basically no purchase limit!

But this news can't be told to Da Zhuang for the time being, lest it accidentally spread to the ears of those customers, which is not beautiful.

What if one waits for the new wine?Who will sell old wine?Or what if someone clamors to order in advance?

Anyway, this wine will definitely not worry about selling when it comes out, it is better to wait for the new wine to be produced in large quantities before spreading the news.

Thinking of today's itinerary, Zhang Nuo casually called Da Zhuang to arrange it,

"Arrange someone to inform Er Zhuang. At noon, I will try dishes for both of you brothers, and I will teach you a new dish by the way. Then go to the West Market to find a Hu merchant, the one who has been clamoring to buy our wine, just say I have something to do with him!"

Da Zhuang responded, and hurriedly arranged for his servants to notify!

Now that he is also the shopkeeper of a large restaurant, there are naturally errand runners below, so you don't have to do it yourself!

It's not that he is lazy, but today is the day for the boss to try dishes, he has to prepare well, and he has to learn new dishes, so he has no time to run around outside.

It was about ten o'clock in the morning, and for the people of Datang, it was time to eat!

So when Zhang Nuo took the two beauties up to the second floor, he saw that it was almost full of people!

But Zhang Nuo took a look and saw an acquaintance, and hurried over to pat him on the shoulder,

"Old Du, come and take care of my business today!"

Du Ruhui was almost spit out the wine in his mouth by Zhang Nuo's sudden slap. He was about to get angry when he turned around and saw that it was Zhang Nuo. He immediately said dumbfounded,

"Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, we haven't seen each other for a while, I didn't expect to meet today!"

Du Ruhui originally planned to say hello to Hongyu, but when he looked up, he was surprised to find that the beautiful woman standing beside Hongyu was not the Princess Jinyang, who is a compatriot of His Majesty's mother.

Others may not know him, but as Li Shimin's minister of the dragon when he started his family, he knows the main members of the Li family clearly, and he has not attended the royal New Year banquet once or twice. This Jinyang eldest princess is not the first See you next time.

Just looking at it like this, could it be that the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang is not only His Majesty's brother-in-law, but also a brother-in-law?

Then this is quite different, the direct brother-in-law is different from the righteous brother, the righteous brother is still two families after all, but the direct brother-in-law can be regarded as a serious family, and then there will be something to play with!

Chapter 181 Du Ruhui's Surprise

Du Ruhui came to eat alone!

After he knew that this was Zhang Nuo's shop, he had been here many times, and there were a few times when he accompanied the emperor.

No one in this place knew his identity, and he enjoyed this feeling quite a bit. The shopkeeper only knew that he was Zhang Nuo's friend.

So, every time I wipe off some change, or simply send a small dish and a pot of wine or something.

He, Du Ruhui, was used to being upright and honest all his life. He was not a relative or friend who had been with him all year round. It was extremely difficult to give him something or treat him to a meal.

But here, he didn't eat and drink for nothing, instead he was contented, because he didn't eat and drink with his status as the prime minister, but with his status as a friend of the owner of the restaurant, so he came here More and more diligent.

Moreover, in order to keep his identity secret, he came alone every time he came. Even if he met acquaintances, he would pretend not to know them, or simply say hello secretly, so as not to reveal his identity.

Unexpectedly, today, I sneaked out to take a nap while I was busy, and I ran into the long-lost shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, and then let him know this shocking secret.

It's a great skill to deceive the eldest princess of the royal family.

He himself is also honorable, and he is also the top prince among the nobles. The children of this group of people, as long as the royal family does not speak, they dare not engage in random marriages, just waiting for the royal family to speak.

There are so many princes and princesses in the royal family, and they usually marry the children of these honorable families, and Jinyang Princess Li Xiuli is the most famous among them.

If you marry Princess Jinyang, then your seniority will be different under your Majesty, not to mention that Princess Jinyang is not only born beautiful, but also very talented, and she is not favored by the Supreme Emperor, His Majesty and Queens. Cultivate an arrogant and indulgent temper, and be extraordinarily knowledgeable and courteous.

As far as he knew, several families were staring at the eldest princess of Jinyang, but now it seems that they can all stop now. The most famous flower in the royal family seems to have an owner.

I just don't know if His Majesty didn't disclose her identity, what kind of name will this flower marry to Zhang's mansion?

Du Ruhui is famous for his wit and quick thinking, but he just happened to see Princess Jinyang, and a lot of thoughts popped up in a short time, but he said with a calm smile on his face,

"I come to your place to eat twice a day, and it's normal if I encounter them. Why don't we make a table together? When your boss comes, the shopkeeper must take good care of you!"

Zhang Nuo didn't doubt that he was there. Although the old Du's eyes were a little weird just now, it should be because he hasn't seen him for a while. He didn't think too much, and nodded with a smile.

"Then you met today, I'm here to try the dishes today, not only Da Zhuang will serve the dishes today, but Er Zhuang from the restaurant in Dongshi will also come over later, and I have to teach them new dishes! "

Speaking of this, Zhang Nuo pointed to Li Qingmei behind him and said,

"This is Lao Li's younger sister, Li Qingmei, Uncle Li's direct daughter. You have a good relationship with Lao Li, and you should know her. She just moved into Uncle Li's house yesterday! Qingmei, come and meet Lao Du, your name is Du Big brother is fine!"

Li Qingmei walked over gracefully, saluted slightly, and said charmingly,

"Qing Mei has met Brother Du!"

It took Du Heizi [-] minutes of strength not to jump up from the stool, and he replied with a half-smile,

"Okay, we met during the Chinese New Year, Qingmei is getting more and more beautiful!"

Smiling on the surface, Du Heizi was about to scold Zhang Nuo in his heart, mother, why is it so bad to deal with this little shopkeeper!

In the past, you just wanted to call your majesty brothers and sisters, that’s fine. After all, when they fought together, your majesty and them were brothers and sisters, but now even the eldest princess of Jinyang has come to salute. Who can bear it? what.

According to the rules, he shouldn't be the one who salutes the princess. This is not the concubine princess, but the sister of His Majesty's compatriots. Just by looking at the title of Princess Jinyang, one can tell how honorable it is.

For the first time, Du Heizi felt that he had promised to have dinner with this little shopkeeper just too soon.

Zhang Nuo didn't care so much, he had a special box in the restaurant, and on weekdays, apart from himself, only Lao Li could use it when he came, so he dragged Du Heizi inside.

Li Qingmei could see Du Ruhui's expression just now. How could she not know Du Ruhui's embarrassment?But the more this happened, the more interesting she found it.

Seeing the imperial brother's confidant, right-hand man, embarrassed like that, Li Qingmei thought it was very funny.

Especially Du Ruhui, who knew everything, but acted like he couldn't say anything, which made Li Qingmei so funny that he wanted to laugh three times immediately.

She finally understood why her imperial brother always liked to go out for a stroll in the white dragon fish suit. It turned out to be so fun, especially with Zhang Nuo, a person who didn't know the inside story, it was especially fun.

Now Li Qingmei hopes to marry into the Zhang family more and more. At that time, she does not know how many ministers and ministers will have to pretend to be other identities in front of her. The only ones she knows are the eldest grandson and Mr. Fang, like General Cheng and Mr. Yuchi. The General and General Qin are also on Zhuangzi.

Haha, the more Li Qingmei thought about it, the more amusing she became, she followed Zhang Nuo to the box with her hands behind her back and a smile on her face.

The others will talk about it later, let's play around with Mr. Du first today.

When the real owner came to his own restaurant, the treatment was naturally different. As soon as he sat down, a large pot of wine and three or five refreshing side dishes were brought up.

Zhang Nuo told Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang brothers to prepare these on weekdays. These side dishes are not on the menu at all, and they are only delivered to regular customers.

That's right, there is no money at all, and the money is not sold. As long as the guests come for the second time or more, they will be given away directly. This has become a feature of Zhang's Restaurant.

Zhang Nuo had just drank a glass of wine with Du Ruhui, when the little Er Zhuang came to inform that Er Zhuang had arrived, and asked if he wanted to visit the kitchen.

This is what it should have meant, Zhang Nuo naturally agreed, and said to Du Ruhui with a smile,

"Old Du, you all know each other, so you can chat here first, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look, and make a new dish by the way, let's have a drink later!"

Du Ruhui naturally agreed, and after watching Zhang Nuo go out, after confirming that Zhang Nuo had gone far away, he said to Li Qingmei with a wry smile,

"His Royal Highness, where are you playing? Why did you get mixed up with shopkeeper Xiao Zhang? Is this a marriage bestowed by His Majesty?"

Du Ruhui had to confirm the news.After all, the marriage of Princess Jinyang is not just a matter of the royal family!

Chapter 182 Du Ruhui Gets into the Pit

Seeing that Zhang Nuo is not here, Li Qingmei naturally doesn't need to pretend to be a folk woman. Seeing her straightening up in an instant, Li Qingmei smiled and replied softly,

"Du Xiang was joking, if the emperor gave Qingmei a marriage, how could he hide it from Du Xiang, you are a close minister of the emperor's side! To be honest, this is all Qingmei's own decision."
