Food for the people

When Lu Jincheng came out of Duanyang Palace, the imperial decree had already been drawn up, and the eunuch who announced the decree went out of the palace with him to the Wen family to pass on the emperor's decree.

Wen Wanjun's eyes were red from crying in the boudoir, Mrs. Sanfang sat beside her and coaxed her, but Wen Shangshu accepted the imperial decree without saying a word, allowing Wen Wanjun to enter the palace on an auspicious day.

"Is the queen mother really helpless?" Seeing her daughter crying pitifully, the third wife complained to Wen Chuo as soon as the Xuanzhi eunuch left. "Jun'er is a child raised from a young age, how can he adapt to the wolf-like environment in the palace, let alone just a concubine, or under the eyes of Concubine Xuan of Long Cuixuan, who has been favored by Concubine Xuan in recent years , who is delicate and pungent, if you have such a temperament, you will have some good fruits to eat, can't you persuade the queen mother and let the emperor take it back?"

When Wen Chuo heard this, he almost laughed angrily.

"I treat you as Jun'er's student every day, and I can learn something. I didn't expect to be so stupid."

"Why did the Empress Dowager give Jun'er to Lord Yan? Do you think the Empress Dowager was just to support the Wen family and stabilize the Qi family? Our old Matriarch and the Qi family are related by marriage, so the Emperor Yan was born in October of her pregnancy." Well, you all know that the empress dowager can't tell which is more important if she prefers the flesh and blood in her belly? What she does to support the Wen family is not for the sake of Prince Yan. Now that King Yan and the emperor have joined hands, it is clear that the two have reached an agreement What kind of deal, the Queen Mother has to let the gentleman enter Yanwang's mansion, the emperor and Yanwang are both her sons, as long as there is no trouble between the two, does the Queen Mother need to borrow the influence of outsiders?"

Mrs. Sanfang was so scolded that she couldn't lift her head, and hugged Wen Wanjun in her arms with distress.

"Then Jun'er married into the palace just like that?"

Wen Chuo said: "Otherwise, what else do you want? Jun'er not only has to marry, but also happily marry. If she can be favored by the emperor in the future, the Wen family still has a chance to turn around, otherwise... we have nowhere to go. Alright, if there is another problem, are you wishing that Wenfu will be dismantled?"

Mrs. Sanfang heard his words seriously and almost cried along with her.

Wen Chuo didn't look at her, but only looked at Wen Wanjun, and said, "Jun'er, your mother doesn't understand the point, so you should too."

Wen Wanjun wiped his eyes, wiped away all the tears, and replied: "Father, don't worry, you understand."

After early spring, the weather soon became hotter. Qiao Yu had been covered with a thick quilt for the past few days, and was woken up by the heat at night. It was the busy farming season, and everyone was busy farming, and the number of people who went to the streets every day decreased. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the noodles are not as durable as in winter, and the items on Qiao Yu's stall have also decreased. Fortunately, he has been busy looking for shops recently, and when the restaurant opens, he doesn't have to worry about the types of items. up.

Qiao Yu didn't prepare much today, he only left a few bowls of wontons and a few kinds of lo mei, the others were sold out early, and he and Chen Cong closed the stall and went home.

Chen Cong is already familiar with it now, and Qiao Yu has a special status to him, and he refuses to let him do more. Except for what he really can't do, he will do everything else for him.

He was also quite puzzled. According to how much his prince likes Mr. Qiao, he can use any place he wants to play. However, there has been no movement so far. On the contrary, Qiao Yu has been inquiring about the shop recently, as if he was going to open it himself. It looks like a restaurant, which makes Chen Kui a little puzzled.

After all, he is not old enough, he has never really liked anyone, so he doesn't understand why his lord didn't do something for Qiao Yu, but Qiao Yu has no objection, so he certainly won't say anything, his lord has always been a People who have ideas must have their own considerations in everything.

Before the two of them arrived home, Qiao Yu saw Lu Jincheng standing outside the yard from a distance, and Sanqi followed behind him carrying a big burden, and he didn't know what it was.

As soon as Qiao Yu's eyes fell on Lu Jincheng, the man raised his head as if he felt it, and saw the corner of Qiao Yu's lips hooked.

As soon as Sanqi hung the burden on the door, he hurried over to help Qiao Yu. He and Chen Cong squeezed Qiao Yu's place alone, and Qiao Yu had no choice but to let go, and went to open the courtyard first. Door.

"Waiting for a long time?" Qiao Yu opened the door and glanced at Lu Jincheng. I don't know if it's his psychological effect. Recently, I always feel that this person seems to be in a good mood, although he doesn't seem to be. It's a big difference, but Qiao Yu can feel it.

Lu Jincheng was dressed in a sandalwood-colored spring coat with a golden edge, a belt around his waist, and a jade pendant of excellent quality was hung. At first glance, he looked rich and noble, but he was overwhelmed by a handsome and attractive appearance. .

When he saw Lu Jincheng, Lu Jincheng also turned to look at him. Those eyes were unfathomable, as if he wanted to suck people in. Qiao Yu was startled, and his heart beat faster, so he quickly turned his face away. up.

"No, I just arrived."

Sanqi followed Chen Cong, pushed the car into the courtyard, and came out to get the burden hanging on the door. Hearing what his prince said, he thought: Yes, it's almost a stick of incense. In your heart, you just arrived.

But he didn't dare to say it, he closed his mouth, and silently brought the thing in.

Lu Jincheng is going to become a frequent visitor to Qiao Yu's yard recently, coming every day, Qiao Yu is not surprised to see him at all, but if he doesn't see him someday, he will feel a little uncomfortable.

Qiao Yu saw that Sanqi carried the things into his bedroom, and asked Lu Jincheng, "What is that?"

Before Lu Jincheng could speak, Sanqi put away his things and came out again, rushing in front of his lord and said, "It's two thin quilts, made of fine silk, light and soft, and it took a lot of effort to make them. I got these two."

Lu Jincheng was robbed of the conversation by him, so he glanced over at him, Sanqi quickly shut up, and didn't dare to say any more.

Only then did Lu Jincheng look at Qiao Yu and said, "I heard from you two days ago that the bedding was too thick, so I asked Shuxiu Pavilion to help me make two."

Qiao Yu really just said it casually that day, but Lu Jincheng remembered it, and made a special trip to make him a thin quilt. Hearing what Sanqi said, he expected that this silk thin quilt would definitely not be cheap, but he He didn't refuse either, his heart seemed to be wrapped in that quilt, so light that he couldn't fall to the ground.

After a long while, he hummed, and for some reason, he turned his head to look at Lu Jincheng again. This time Lu Jincheng didn't notice his gaze, but Chen Kui saw it. He was overjoyed, thinking that his prince was about to die. It's over.

After the two sat together and drank two cups of tea, they talked about renting a shop.

After Qiao Yu had this idea in his mind, of course he told Lu Jincheng about it immediately.

Lu Jincheng naturally had no objection.

He wasn't the one who wanted Qiao Yu to open a restaurant first, but he was the one who supported him the most.

If he didn't like Qiao Yu enough, or if the person he liked wasn't Qiao Yu, then the restaurant might have opened a long time ago. With Lu Jincheng's level of thoughtfulness, how could he wait for someone else to speak?

But Qiao Yu was no one else, he could accept Lu Jincheng's two thin silk quilts, but if it was a restaurant, he would never agree anyway.

Although he had long guessed that Lu Jincheng's identity was either rich or noble, he never had any thoughts about it. When they had nothing to do with each other, Qiao Yu treated him equally.If it really matters in the future, nothing will change.

No matter what age, a relationship based entirely on money will not be too strong.

So Qiao Yu really wanted to open a restaurant, and if he ran out of money, he would borrow it from Lu Jincheng, but he would never ask Lu Jincheng for it.

Both of them knew this matter well, so no one singled it out and said it clearly.

In the past two days, Qiao Yu went to a lot of shops on the West Street, looking at the ones facing the street and not facing the street, but he didn't see a few that he was more satisfied with. This matter can't be rushed for a while, anyway, he just has money in his pocket. I'm also a little nervous, so I'm not particularly anxious. I just go and see what I hear, and I'll talk about it if I don't like it.

"I heard about a suitable place two days ago. When will you be free, come and take a look with me?" Lu Jincheng said.

Qiao Yu's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is it far?"

Seeing him like this, Lu Jincheng wanted to touch him, so he held back, turned his gaze to another place, and said, "It's not far, it's on West Street, but although the location is not remote, it's not facing the street. .”

Qiao Yu's restaurant can't be too big if it's big, and it can't be too small if it's small.

It is best to have an upstairs-downstairs structure. The upper part can be used as a private room, and the lower part can be connected to the kitchen. It would be even better if there is a yard. Two rooms can be built behind the yard, and people can live in it in their spare time. , When you don’t want to go home on weekdays, you can also take a break.

Qiao Yu knew that he had a lot to ask for, so he didn't expect to be able to find it all at once. As for the ones facing the street or not, it didn't have much impact on his arrival. Anyway, it is impossible for his restaurant to become a second first-class restaurant. Lou, since it can't be magnificent, why not just do something unique as he thinks.

"It doesn't matter if it's not facing the street. Is the place big? Is there a yard?"

Lu Jincheng turned his head to look at him: "You're so curious, why don't you come and have a look with me now."

It's still early, there are not many things prepared for these two days, and Aunt Qiufeng will come later, Qiao Yu thought about it, and nodded neatly.

Sanqi and Chen Cong were sitting in the yard, seeing them coming out of the house and walking out of the yard, Sanqi hurriedly got up to follow, but was pulled by Chen Cong.

Sanqi looked back at him, Chen Zhui blinked at him, Sanqi was taken aback for a moment, then understood, and asked Lu Jincheng cautiously: "Master, do you still need me to be with you?"

Lu Jincheng kept both of them as they expected.

Sanqi watched his prince and Qiao Yu walk away side by side, turned around and sighed at Chen Zhuan: "Hey, the prince is no longer our prince."

Chen Chuan patted him on the head when he heard the words: "You are content, you, even if you become a prince's family with Mr. Qiao in the future, we will have a good life for the two of us, or do you want a princess more in your heart?"

Sanqi thought for a while, then shook her head firmly.

"That still won't work."

Chen Chuan smiled when he heard the words, and pushed his head again: "Then what are you doing here, why don't you hurry in and guard the yard for Young Master Qiao."

The two went back to the yard together happily.
