Reborn Farmhouse Restaurant [Transmigration Book]

In the capital, Du Qingchen and his team traveled for several days before finally arriving. Su Nuan received the news and came to pick him up early. Du Qingchen helped Du's father get off the carriage, and Su Dong helped Su's mother. Those who are old and in poor health are almost always motion sick. On the contrary, Maodan has a good balance function. Although he is young, he has no reaction to the bumpy carriage.

Du Rulin followed closely behind with Mao Dan in his arms, and got out of the carriage. Su Nuan said a few words to the Su family, then smiled and led them into the city.

Du Qingchen looked around for a week and asked, "Where is Marshal Qi?"

"He's busy! He's going to get married in a few days, and besides, there's no reason to meet me before getting married, so he didn't come." Su Nuan said.

Du Qingchen nodded.

Su Nuan said: "I've been living in the house you bought, Brother Du, it's quite big! I didn't expect that you would buy such a big house for me to marry as a wedding gift for me." Su Nuan was embarrassed scratching his head.

Du Qingchen said: "It should." And it's just for use, not for you.

Su Nuan also understands, but he is still very happy!Being able to get married from his natal family instead of living in his own private house or Qi Cheng's private house to marry into Qi's mansion, he can also be justified.

Everyone went back to the mansion that Du Qingchen bought. It was quite a big mansion. The gate had been replaced with a plaque saying Du Mansion, which surprised Su's father, Su's mother, and Du's father. They were used to living in the small courtyard in Han County. I really didn't expect Du Qingchen to buy such a big place in the capital for Su Nuan to marry.

Mother Su looked at Du Qingchen gratefully, and she knew that Du Qingchen would do well in what he promised. Now, when Su Nuan gets married, others come here to welcome her, so they won't be able to laugh at them. .

Everyone entered the yard, and a group of servants, men and women, saluted everyone. Du Qingchen's face turned a little ugly for a moment, Su Nuan said quickly: "These are my servants, and they will marry me to the Qi Mansion in a few days, such a big courtyard , You still have to get married and need help, so I called you here, Brother Du, in the future, you should buy some servants yourself so that you can take care of the courtyard."

"I still need to buy servants!" Mother Su's face was complicated, she couldn't enjoy the blessing of this old lady, she always felt weird and uncomfortable.

Du Qingchen nodded. It's fine that these servants are not arranged by Su Nuan. This is the courtyard of Du's family, and it will be reserved for Du Rulin in the future. He doesn't want the servants here to be placed by outsiders. not feeling well.It's good that Su Nuan has a plot, she is also the protagonist anyway, there is still some sense of propriety, Du Qingchen feels relieved.

The Du Mansion can be regarded as magnificent and luxurious within the scope of not violating the rules, and it also has a bit of the elegance and softness of the Jiangnan water town. The whole courtyard is beautiful with carved railings and jade bricks.It is true that servants are needed to take care of them. Du Qingchen thinks it is necessary to buy some servants.

Everyone rested in the mansion separately, exhausted and exhausted all the way.

The next day, the things that Su Junxia asked someone to deliver were also delivered to the door. The clerk in Jingcheng Zhenbao Pavilion bowed to Du Qingchen and said, "Boss Su asked our store to store some things for Boss Du. Boss Du Did you get the letter?"

Du Qingchen nodded, Su Junxia helped him find a lot of good things from various places, the total price was about 3000 taels, and the remaining 2000 taels were to be handed over to Su Nuan as the silver at the bottom of the box.

The buddy laughed. Since Du Qingchen received the letter, he must know what was in it. Naturally, they did not dare to intercept it, but it is a good thing to be able to hand over the letter clearly. After all, there are a few things here that are from their Treasure Pavilion Woolen cloth!

"Then Boss Du, do you want to check it now?" The man motioned to the person carrying the box behind him to lift the box up, and said, "Boss Du, please."

Du Qingchen stepped forward and lifted the lid of the box, and saw that there were many small boxes, large and small, inside. Du Qingchen picked the biggest one and opened it. Inside was a white jade Buddha, which was a full foot high, and the white jade was crystal clear and moist. It was carved from a whole piece of material, which Su Junxia specifically mentioned. He found it from other places and bought it for a full 1000 taels of silver.

Du Qingchen closed the lid and opened another box, which was a set of haircuts from the Treasure Pavilion, which were also extremely exquisite and luxurious, and the other big and small ones were also treasures.

Du Qingchen took a rough look and said, "boss Su and I believe in the reputation of Zhenbao Pavilion, so there is no need to check it carefully."

However, Zhenbaoge knew very well that these items were to add makeup to Marshal Qi's wife, and they would not dare to tamper with them if they had the guts to do so. Besides, they also wanted their own reputation!The clerk laughed and said, "That's right, the reputation of our Zhenbao Pavilion is excellent in the capital. Since Boss Du has inspected it, please ask Boss Du to sign this list, which also means that we have handed it over to Boss Du."

Du Qingchen nodded, took it, wrote down his name with the pen handed by the servant, and returned it to the other party.

After finishing the errand, the clerk of Zhenbao Pavilion took his leave and left. The family members stepped forward, and Su's father asked in surprise, "What are these?"

"Add makeup to Brother Nuan." Du Qingchen smiled.

"It's too expensive." Although Su's father didn't know how much these things were worth, he was not stupid. He could tell that these things were extraordinary and must be extremely valuable.

Du Qingchen said: "Brother Nuan will get married in a few days, we also need to have enough makeup! Father and mother, don't worry about such trivial matters, you can just wait for Brother Nuan to marry with peace of mind. "

Su Nuan stood aside in a daze, seeing that Du Qingchen was about to leave, she quickly stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Brother Du."

"You're welcome, there's still 2000 taels of silver at the bottom of the box, I'll give it to you later."

Su Nuan didn't know what to say for a moment, she was stunned for a while, and then asked: "Is this too much?"

He is different from Su's father and Su's mother. He has been in the capital for so long, and he has never seen anything good, so when Du Qingchen inspected the things, he took a rough look at them. In addition to what Du Qingchen said about the 2000 taels at the bottom of the box, he could also roughly estimate the items. It can be estimated that Du Qingchen spent about five or six thousand taels of silver for him to get married, but is it worth it?

He invited his family members so that they would be there when he got married, not to force them to pay so much money, but he has already invited his family members, so can they not pay a penny?Su Nuan was at a loss.Is he wrong, not thinking comprehensively enough? !

No matter what Su Nuan thinks, it is impossible for Du Qingchen to return the things that Du Qingchen has already bought, so Su Nuan had to choose some good things from her own, and gave them to Su Dong as gifts for Mao Dan. Of course, This value can't be worth what Du Qingchen wants to give him, but that's all there is to it.

Du Qingchen originally planned to attend the wedding and return to Han County after Du Rulin finished his exams, but things didn't go as smoothly as he had imagined, because the queen of the dynasty passed away.According to the rules, civil and military officials will be cut down and eliminated on the 27th, music and sacrifices will be stopped for a hundred days, marriages will be stopped for a hundred days, and soldiers and civilians will be banned for one month.Unfortunately, Qi Cheng was among them, and now the marriage will be delayed until three months later.

Su Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Anyway, it's a good thing that the queen is gone." Although it affected his marriage.

It was only then that Du Qingchen remembered that the third prince was the eldest son, born of the empress, and the fifth prince was the concubine, but he was the most capable. If the empress died, it would mean that the third prince had lost a lot of help, which was a good thing for the fifth prince.

Du Qingchen can't remember clearly whether the book affected the protagonist's marriage, but this is not too important. The important thing is that without the queen, the third prince will start to decline. Only then can the fight with the fifth prince be tied. Without the empress as the military adviser behind the scenes, the third prince can't beat the fifth prince with his own IQ.

Du Qingchen put these things to the back of his mind and asked Su Nuan, "Then you have to wait for a hundred days of mourning before getting married?"

Su Nuan said: "Yes!" Su Nuan seemed to sense Du Qingchen's displeasure, and said, "It's not just me, the Guozijian exam has also been postponed." So, no matter what, you have to wait.

Du Qingchen didn't say anything, but said, "That's the only way to go."

Su Nuan laughed, "Brother Du, you and my parents are ordinary people. You don't have to mourn for a hundred days. Although it's one month for soldiers and civilians, as long as you don't get married and have fun, you can go shopping in the capital."

Du Qingchen nodded, "Let's talk!"

Seeing that Du Qingchen was not in a good mood, Su Nuan couldn't continue to say anything.Knowing this, Qi Cheng directly sent his servants to deliver a brocade box to Du Qingchen. Now that he is busy entering the palace for mourning, he couldn't get away, that's all he could do.

"What is this?" Du Qingchen wondered.

"The marshal said that this is a gift for Mr. Du, and please Mr. Du not to refuse." The servant of the Qi residence bowed.

Du Qingchen opened it and looked, only to see that it was a land deed, the location was very good, it was in the most prosperous area in central Beijing, only such a land deed, from Du Qingchen's point of view, was worth 2000 taels of silver, Du Qingchen closed the brocade box, and refused: "It's too expensive, I can't bear it."

"The marshal knew that Mr. Du was going to resign, but the marshal said that he was grateful to Mr. Du for taking care of the elders of the Su family. If the husband resigned, I would take it back and tell me not to go back." The servant looked begging for mercy.

Du Qingchen said: "Then you go back and tell Marshal Qi that I don't want to open a shop in the capital. Giving me such a big shop is just a waste of money."

"Marshal also said that Mr. Du didn't want to open a store in Beijing, but he was afraid that there would be too many nobles in Beijing and he didn't want to cause trouble. But this store is the private property of my marshal, and everyone else knows it well. How dare he cause trouble?"

Du Qingchen wanted to decline, but Su Nuan had already stepped out and took it directly. He was worried that he would not be able to pay back the money!Du Qingchen gave him so much dowry, he is having a headache!Unexpectedly, when Qi Cheng turned around, he sent the land deed, so that he could pay back one or two. Su Nuan felt sweet in his heart, but with a serious face, he gave the land deed to Du Qingchen.

"Take it for my little nephew. If you don't accept it, I'll take it to Brother Dong. You know, he can never refuse me."

Du Qingchen was helpless, and was about to speak, when Su Nuan said again: "You have given me so many things, there has to be a reciprocation! Otherwise, why should I take advantage of you for nothing, and I am not short of money."

Seeing what Su Nuan said, Du Qingchen knew that he couldn't refuse the title deed. Su Nuan wasn't happy to take advantage of him, but he couldn't refuse to add makeup, so he could only return part of it in a different way. Qi Cheng Probably also thought so, that's why.

Du Qingchen had no choice but to take it over and said, "Thank you."

Now that there is a shop, Du Qingchen doesn't want to leave it empty. Moreover, Qi Cheng will be in mourning for a hundred days, Su Nuan's marriage will be postponed until March, and Du Rulin's exam for the Imperial College will be postponed for three months. In a few days, Liu Tai and Qiu You will also flee here, and Du Qingchen doesn't want to go back to Han County, so he might as well set up a restaurant here to spend some time.

Anyway, as Qi Cheng said, this shop belongs to him, and usually no one comes to make trouble, and he can save a lot of things. If there is really trouble, he just leaves.

Thinking of this, Du Qingchen took Su Dong out for shopping. The business in the capital is prosperous, and delicacies from all over the world gather here. It's just that the Queen's funeral is happening these days, and the shops on the street have to hang white lanterns at the entrances, and no preparations are made. With wine and meat, Du Qingchen had no choice but to stay at home for three days. After three days, the funeral was over. Although the people could not get married within a month, it did not affect the business. Du Qingchen finally made the trip and spent a few days with Su Dong ate all over the restaurants in the city.

I have to say that the capital city is indeed a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There are shops and restaurants here for all the delicacies that come up from all over the place. It is said that the apprentices and grandchildren of the royal chefs are invited, and there are even famous chefs with secret methods. This operation.

"Which one do you like the most?" In the carriage, Du Qingchen sat in the driver's seat and drove the carriage. The door curtain of the carriage was lifted, and asked Su Dong who was sitting inside holding the baby.

Su Dong smiled. These days they ate a lot of good things, all kinds of sauced meat and game, each with its own characteristics, but if asked what he likes best, Su Dong thought for a while and answered, "I like Wufang Vegetarian stinky tofu..."

Du Qingchen froze for a moment before slowly nodding, "As long as you like it."

Su Dong hesitated, "Do you think it smells a little bit?"

"Why? I think it's pretty good. Is it more stinky than snail noodles?"

Su Dong thought about it, but couldn't tell the difference for a while.

Du Qingchen glanced across the street, stopped suddenly, took a closer look, and asked in confusion, "Ru Lin? Mr. Tao?"

Su Dong quickly poked his head out to look, and sure enough, there were two people walking on the side of the street, and they were talking and laughing, and they didn't know where they came from. Standing together, Xiude is elegant and handsome, looking like a bosom friend.

Shouldn't Tao Xiude always treat Du Rulin as his younger brother?Du Qingchen was stunned. This kind of good friend suddenly walked with his own child, more like the feeling of peers, which made Du Qingchen a little awkward, so he waved his hands and shouted, "Ru Lin, Mr. Tao!"

Du Rulin and Tao Xiude were taken aback, looked at Du Qingchen, and laughed at the same time, Tao Xiude walked over turning the folding fan, and said: "You are busy these days, I have been to your house several times, but I have not seen you , fortunately Rulin entertained me."

"Brother, sister-in-law." Du Rulin smiled.

Du Qingchen looked the two of them back and forth, wondering, "Where did you come from?" Let alone his home, the direction of his home was not the direction they came from.

"I went to the Imperial College!" Tao Xiude replied casually, "Isn't Rulin going to be admitted to the Imperial College? I'll take him there to have a look. By the way, I also took him to see the doctor of the Imperial College. Speaking of which, Rulin still has Min Anshi's letter of recommendation! Originally, Dr. Yue agreed to admit Rulin after reading Min Anshi's letter, but Rulin said that he wanted to take the exam by himself, so Dr. Yue gave up!"

Du Qingchen turned his gaze to Du Rulin, "That's it! You should test it yourself."

If you pass the exam, the Ph.D. from the Imperial College will take a high look at it. If you fail the exam, you can also show the stubbornness of the scholar. It's better than just coming to the door with a recommendation letter. Moreover, if you fail the exam, you still have to release the list!If you don't win, the Imperial College here has already agreed to enroll, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

Ru Lin has become more and more scheming, but Du Qingchen is always worried that he is young and unsteady, arrogant in his talent, and if something happens, it will be bad.

"By the way, Brother Du, I heard that you have gone out to search for delicious food these few days, and you have gained something? Why don't you tell me about it, let me listen, so I can taste it."

Du Qingchen glanced at Su Dong, and said, "Wufangzhai's stinky tofu is very good and delicious. I recommend Brother Tao to try it."

Tao Xiude paused, "Are you kidding me?"

"How could it be?" Du Qingchen said with a smile, "My husband thinks it tastes great, and I also think it's as good as my home's snail noodles. After this month's mourning period, I'm planning to open a store. Say no. Just do it."

Tao Xiude confirmed that Du Qingchen was teasing him, and shook his folding fan quickly, as if this could fan his anger away, and said, "Then it's better to make a pot! Isn't your hot pot base good?"

Du Qingchen shook his head, "Things that have been sold all over the world for a long time, how can it be worth opening a store in this place where every inch of land is expensive? Not enough cost!"

"Then... your prescriptions?"

"It can't compare to the dazzling array of delicacies in the capital."

"Then what do you want?"

Du Qingchen sighed, "It's getting cold, let's open a barbecue restaurant!"
