Chapter 49 The little beggar
Su Yuexi continued shopping with Tingzhu, and she saw a shop specializing in roast chicken.
The rich aroma of roasted chicken wafts far away.
So Su Yuexi glanced around, then pointed to a stall selling candied haws in the distance, and said to Tingzhu:
"Tingzhu, I want to eat candied haws, go and buy one for me and bring it for yourself." Take one."
Tingzhu responded quickly.
Su Yuexi immediately went over and ordered 20 roast chickens from the owner of the roast chicken shop, and asked him to deliver them to the private room she had reserved at the Zuixianlou Hotel.
It's not that she doesn't want to buy more, but the owner of the roast chicken shop is unwilling to sell more.
His family is a time-honored brand, and he has to take care of his old customers.
After a while, Tingzhu came back with two bunches of candied haws.
She noticed nothing unusual.
Su Yuexi was very satisfied. She bit into a candied haws and ate it while walking on the street.
I don't care about the image of a lady at all. Anyway, she was wearing a curtain hat, so others couldn't see her face.
Tingzhu is a slave and dare not say anything.
While walking, Su Yuexi saw a little beggar on the street corner.
Su Yuexi pointed to a bun shop in the distance and asked Tingzhu to buy some meat buns.
Taking advantage of the time to put Tingzhu aside, she wrapped a handkerchief around her face and came to the little beggar.
"Your Majesty is very kind and merciful. Please reward me with something. The dog has not eaten for several days." The little beggar was very clever and kowtowed when he saw Su Yuexi.
No matter how strangely the other person is dressed up wearing a curtain and covering his face.
Su Yuexi asked: "Do you know where Su Wuhou's mansion is?"
"Yes, I know. Everyone in the streets and alleys of the capital knows it." The little beggar said.
Su Yuexi nodded and said with satisfaction: "Send a letter to the Marquis Mansion, and I will reward you with ten taels of silver. Will you do it?"
"Do it, do it, the dog is willing!" The little beggar nodded hurriedly.
Su Yuexi knelt down and threw a tael of silver into his bowl.
The little beggar's eyes shone brightly, and he immediately put the silver in his arms with quick eyes and quick hands.
Su Yuexi handed the letter to him and said: "Tomorrow morning, send this letter to Su Wuhou's Mansion. Someone will give you the remaining money by then."
"This is a secret letter. It must be kept secret and cannot be shared with others. " If others outside the Hou Mansion see it, they can't tell them who sent the message, otherwise I will take the money back," Su Yuexi threatened.
"Then, what should I say?" The little beggar was confused.
"Stupid, why don't you just make up someone's appearance? Just say you don't know him, give you a letter and leave." Su Yuexi said.
"My lord, I understand. The letter will be delivered to you!" the little beggar promised.
"You are so smart and have a bright future." Su Yuexi praised the little beggar.
Then get up and leave.
When Tingzhu came back from buying steamed buns, he saw his young lady walking to a stall selling kites, and quickly chased after her.
Su Yuexi just walked away from Tingzhu from time to time, and then bought a lot of cooked food, pastries, steamed buns and buns along the way, and asked the store to deliver them to the private room she had reserved.
She bought in large quantities, was generous with her money, and delivered them to places not far away, and the store did everything she wanted.
The waiter at Zuixian Tower felt a little strange when he saw some people coming in and out to deliver things to the private room.
But the guest who booked the private room had already said hello in advance, saying that his family would bring something to the private room.
This kind of thing is not unheard of. Some wealthy families do bring some of their own ingredients.
But he has never seen such a variety of gifts.
But the waiter soon ran out of time to be curious.
As noon came, he became busier and busier. I don't have the intention to pay attention to this anymore.
It was almost noon, and guests at Zuixian Tower began to arrive in an endless stream.
Su Yuexi estimated that the time was almost up. Then he took Tingzhu to this restaurant called Zuixianlou.
The waiter knew her and came over to say hello.
Su Yuexi just nodded and said to him: "You don't have to entertain me, just go and do your own business."
The waiter nodded and walked away.
Su Yuexi came to the private room she had booked with familiarity.
Before opening the door, she seemed to have remembered something and said to Tingzhu: "By the way, Tingzhu, I want to eat the hawthorn cake sold by the hawker outside the teahouse. Go buy me two pieces and bring them back for appetizer."
"Yes, Girl."
Ting Zhu took the order and left.
Seeing Tingzhu leaving, Su Yuexi walked in immediately.
This private room was filled with all kinds of food that she had asked people to bring before.
Su Yuexi put them all into the space. Looking at the table full of food, she would definitely not be able to finish them all.
So he also collected most of the food and entered the space.
Then he sat at the table and waited as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Tingzhu came back buying hawthorn cake.
There was a copper basin for washing hands in the room. She washed Su Yuexi's hands and then continued to serve Su Yuexi to eat.
Su Yuexi had already eaten something else on the way.
So I got full quickly.
There was a lot of food left on the table, and it was all served with serving chopsticks, so Su Yuexi gave it to Tingzhu.
"I'm full, you can eat the rest." Su Yuexi said.
Tingzhu was a little happy.
Even in the Hou Mansion, the food for their maids was good, but they rarely had the same food as their masters.
"Thank you, girl!" Tingzhu said.
Su Yuexi nodded and took the opportunity to say, "I'm going outside to eat."
Upon hearing this, Tingzhu quickly stood up and wanted to follow.
Su Yuexi waved her hand and said, "Just eat, I'll just walk a few steps in front of the elegant room."
Tingzhu sat obediently and continued to eat.
