The autumn hunting has been settled. It is a rare happy time this year. Besides, Princess Yi Yang also wants to go after she recovers from her illness.
Xia Zhiliao clapped her hands and cheered, "Grandma, please hunt more and bring them back, so they can see how powerful you are."
Princess Yiyang smiled and asked, "How many do you want grandma to hunt?"
"At most." Her horrible vanity.
“Will there be a prize for the most?”
"Yes, there is, but my grandmother is old, so I won't fight with them."
Princess Yiyang thought for a moment and then said, "I'm afraid the princes will compete against each other secretly this year."
Xia Zhiliao quickly understood that since the position of crown prince was vacant, the princes would definitely fight to the death to demonstrate their abilities.
"Mom, I've discussed it with Jinjun and we won't go."
"Why don't you go?" Princess Yiyang wanted to persuade her daughter, "Although you are not good at hunting, it's good to go and relax."
Chang Yue shook his head. "With you taking Zhiliao and the other three kids with you, we two don't have to worry. We would not be used to that kind of place."
Princess Yiyang thought about their personalities and said, "Okay, then you should stay in the capital. You can also go there to spend more time with your mother-in-law."
The couple nodded.
When Xia Zhiliao's shop opened, all the Xia family members came, and it was very lively.
As Old Mrs. Xia laughed, her eyes became moist.
[Grandma misses her aunt. Calculating the time, her aunt will be arriving soon. I wonder if she will have food to eat.]
Old Mrs. Xia touched her head. She really missed her daughter.
But she was also happy because her daughter was happy.
In the past, when we asked my daughter to get married, she always said she didn't want to get married.
Old Mrs. Xia thought that she had made up her mind to take care of her daughter for the rest of her life.
But in the end, she got married all of a sudden.
The brothers of the Mu family now have a very good relationship with the Xia family. After that incident, they also let down their guard.
Now everyone is busy hoping that the shop will have a prosperous business.
Wen Chao and Wen Yan are here.
Wen Heng was absent again.
Xia Zhiliao guessed that Emperor Shunde must be making things difficult for him again.
She knew that Wen Heng had a deep hatred and entered the palace for revenge, but sometimes, she really felt that such a depressing life was unbearable.
It would be more comfortable to be a leisurely rich young man out there.
"Why didn't Brother Wen Heng come?" Xia Hai said somewhat disappointedly, "Did he remember the wrong date?"
Wen Chao hesitated to speak, "He...he has something to do."
"What could be more important than the opening of Zhiliao's shop?"
Wen Chao shrugged his shoulders and moved closer to Xia Zhiliao, "Can you come into the palace by yourself?"
"Why?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
"My mother wanted to show you. She said she was not feeling well."
"Where's the imperial physician?"
"The imperial physician couldn't figure it out, so my mother thought of asking you to go and have a look. Don't worry, you will get some good things." Wen Chao thought that Xia Zhiliao hesitated because he was afraid that it would be useless.
Xia Zhiliao knew about Concubine Liang's ambition. She was just lying in wait. Not only did she want to become the queen herself, she also wanted her son to ascend the throne.
This woman has a hypocritical heart and appears to be a noncompetitive person, but she is actually very capable.
She was weighing in her mind what the consequences would be if she refused.
What harm will there be if you don't refuse?
"How is it?" Wen Chao asked again.
Wen Chao is still young and poses no threat, but it is different for Concubine Liang. If she listens to the emperor's advice, Emperor Shunde might still hold a grudge against her.
This is not the time to make any more enemies.
"Okay, but the shop has just opened, I'm afraid I won't have time for a while. Is Concubine Liang's condition serious?"
"Hiss, not really. I think it's fine." Wen Chao said.
Xia Zhiliao nodded, it seemed that seeing a doctor was just an excuse.
Could it be that Concubine Liang also wanted to win over me and gain the support of my grandmother?
These people have hearts like sieves, full of holes.
"By the way, I owe you the money." Wen Chao handed over the banknote and said proudly, "I am a man of my word."
Xia Zhiliao took it and put it away.
"You don't want to order?"
"What is there to order? Would the Ninth Prince really cheat me out of such a small amount of money?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
Wen Chao was quite happy and felt that she trusted him very much.
Since guests are welcome, Xia Zhiliao prepared a bunch of delicious food for them.
"What are these...?"
"This is fried chicken, this is popcorn, this is French fries, this is..."
Xia Zhiliao knew all of these dishes well. Anyway, these dishes were not available in Beijing. The spicy skewers were especially loved by several people.
Wen Chao thought that he was eating the best food in the world in the palace, but in the end he found out that he was just a frog in a well.
It’s really delicious.
"How did you come up with that? I've never seen it before."
"I thought of it because I like to eat it." Xia Zhiliao smiled.
Wen Yan looked at the playful Xia Zhiliao and felt that this little girl was more and more different.
At the age of four, she has so many ideas. She really brings me so many surprises.
No wonder Wen Heng is so close to her. If it were me, it would be hard to escape her attraction.
"Is it tasty?"
Xia Zhiliao asked.
Everyone nodded, it was really delicious.
Soon, some guests arrived.
A tall, muscular man came in and shouted, "Boss, is what's written on the sign at the door real?"
Xia Jinheng nodded, "Yes, do you want to challenge?"
"What challenge? What sign? Why can't I see it?" Wen Chao asked.
Xia Zhiliao raised his eyebrows. This was a gimmick, but they didn’t see it.
"Then I want to challenge you. Let's make it clear that if I finish the two catties of noodles you mentioned within two quarters of an hour, you have to give me two hundred coins."
Xia Jinheng nodded, "Of course, I'll keep my word, but if you can't finish it, you have to pay for it, a total of fifty cents."
"No problem, come on, this is the first time I've heard of such a good thing."
The man said confidently.
Soon Xia Jinheng had someone bring out a bowl of noodles as big as a face plate, and then repeatedly assured the customer that if he couldn't eat it, he should give up, otherwise he would get sick from it.
The man patted his chest and said that everything would be fine, then started eating.
Because they were at the door, many passers-by came over to watch.
The man ate very quickly at first, but then he slowed down.
Wen Yan and others also opened the windows upstairs and watched.
"Myna, do you think we can finish it?"
Wen Yan curled his lips and said, "Whether you finish it or not, Xia Zhiliao has earned it."
"Most people wouldn't think of this."
Wen Chao didn't care about all that and just wanted to watch the fun. This little girl was really full of tricks.
She even came up with this way of playing?
In the end, the man won, but he was so full that he could hardly walk. Two pounds of raw noodles would be a lot when cooked.
The man wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Can I come tomorrow?"
Xia Zhiliao was not someone who could not afford to play, so he pointed to the words on the sign and said, "Sure, but if you come tomorrow you will have to challenge two and a half kilograms of noodles, so of course you will win more."
