Chapter 441: Warm wine, all this money is given to you
"How could that be possible?" Liang Jiugong immediately laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you must be joking. This world belongs to you, and you are the ruler of all people. How could Miss Wen accept such money from you?"
Thinking about it carefully, Liang Jiugong actually didn't quite understand what Wen Jiu was thinking.
To be precise, he and Miss Wen had no grudges in the past or recently. After all, he had eaten a few of Miss Wen's skewers. He wanted to defend her, but he didn't know where to start.
Emperor Kangxi: "Go and see where the fourth brother and the others have gone. Have they all gone to Miss Wen's place?"
Liang Jiugong glanced at the sky. After a long time of tossing and turning, it was almost time for dinner. He guessed that the Emperor had guessed it right.
Not long after, Liang Jiugong came back and said, "Your Majesty, you are truly amazing. We all really went to the Fourth Master together.
Also going there were the Prince of Zhi, the Third Master, the Thirteenth Master, and the Fourteenth Master."
Emperor Kangxi raised his eyebrows: "Where are the fifth and eighth brothers?"
Liang Jiugong said, "The Fifth Master went to serve the Empress Dowager. The Eighth Master was with him at first, but for some reason he went back to his own cabin."
Emperor Kangxi raised his eyebrows, stretched himself, and said, "Let's go, I'll go take a look too."
Liang Jiugong responded, but he was also worried about Miss Wen.
This Miss Wen is quite bold indeed. Gentlemen, if you offend any of them, your life will surely be difficult. Why do you have to charge money for a meal? Making you owe me money is the real smart thing to do.
…
"Wenjiu, all this silver is given to you." The Fourteenth Master took out a handful of silver bills and slapped them directly on the table in front of Wenjiu.
"Little Fourteen, you are really rich and powerful." Even the Thirteenth Master couldn't help but glance sideways.
The Fourteenth Master patted his chest and said, "We'll provide meals for the whole year."
Wen Jiu found it extremely funny and asked, "Where did Fourteenth Master get so much silver?"
"No matter where it comes from, it's all given to you."
Wen Jiu was a little amused: "Then I'll put it on the registration book for you? I'll give you the rest when we return to Beijing."
The fourteen-year-old waved his hand, "Whatever."
The Fourth Master snatched the silver from Wen Jiu's hand and threw it back to the Fourteenth Master: "Do you think this is a restaurant? Buy what you want to eat."
As he spoke, he handed the stack of banknotes he had brought back to Wen Jiu: "Here, if you need money, tell me, don't take theirs."
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Master, Jiu'er is not short of money."
The Fourth Master frowned and said, "I give it to you, just keep it."
Fourteen, who was standing beside him, noticed something was amiss and immediately said, "Hey? Wenjiu, we agreed that Yueyue paid for the food and could order food from you. Business isn't done this way, so how can you refund me?"
Wen Jiu was speechless for a moment. To be honest, she had originally wanted to trick the Fourteenth Master into staying by her side. She was afraid that the Fourteenth Master would get into trouble, so she tied him up and kept an eye on him herself.
In addition, this child usually spends money lavishly, so I wanted to help him fix this problem, so I started to accept his money.
But who knew that the Fourteenth Prince was also a big mouth, and he turned around and told the other princes.
The wine business had inexplicably grown, and it was difficult to stop.
"Master, let me take care of him for a while, otherwise he is still young and we don't know where the money has gone." Wenjiu blinked at the Fourth Master and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Fourteen couldn't hear the sound, so he frowned and said, "Warm the wine, I won't owe you any money."
The fourth master glared at him and said, "I don't need your money."
Xiao Shisi: "You're not short of money. Do you think it's too much?"
Prince Zhi: "That's right."
The Third Master said with a bitter face, "I have been punished by the Emperor. If you don't make something delicious tonight, I can't live like this anymore."
Fourth Master: “…”
Wen Jiu looked at this and smiled: "How about this, our master said that today he will treat everyone, okay?"
"Not good!" Prince Zhi said immediately, "Whoever wants to be treated to a meal, I have to pay for it."
If he gives some money, he won't be considered to owe the fourth brother a favor. But if he refuses to accept the money, what will happen?
"Yes, we paid the money." The third master felt that he had seen through the fourth master's tricks.
I definitely want to treat them to two meals, so that they won't feel comfortable coming over to eat for free all day. How can that be possible?
Thirteen didn't have any objection.
Fourteen said, "If you have decided on this, please let me and Thirteen know."
Wen Jiu silently shifted his gaze to the Fourth Master: "Master...what do you think?"
The Fourth Master was too lazy to pay attention to his brothers and sisters, and simply pulled the warm wine to the side: "I don't care about other things, just one thing, you are not allowed to touch these things."
Wen Jiu nodded and said with a smile: "Just tell An Luhai to do it."
The Fourth Master heard this but didn't say anything.
The other masters became cheerful. Even the Third Master, who was not very happy, looked very happy because he felt that he had just won the argument with the Fourth Master.
Wenjiu saw everyone sitting together happily, so he ordered people to go downstairs and prepare the barbecue.
Eating fish on this boat is the most convenient. This morning, I ran into an elderly man fishing at the beach. I spent some money to buy everything he caught.
There are all kinds of seafood and fish, and I even got a basket of clams.
Now is midsummer, the time when clams are plump and tender. Wen Jiu simply made some garlic vermicelli and put it in an iron box to make clam vermicelli.
All kinds of fish are prepared, skewered, brushed with sauce and ready to be grilled.
Earlier, she put the less common fish or smaller fish in the net into the space.
Now, the fish placed in the space on Jinyang Road have become very fat.
Wenjiu simply switched things up and got one out, just enough to give everyone a snack.
"Hey? Pearls, sir, it's pearls!" Wenjiu saw a larger river clam and subconsciously reached out to pry it open. He was very happy.
This is the first time I have seen pearls from wild river clams.
The Fourth Master took one look at the crooked pearl in her hand and his brows furrowed immediately: "Didn't I tell you not to touch it? Be careful not to get it pinched."
As he spoke, he took the river clam from Wenjiu's hand and helped her squeeze out the pearls.
Seeing Wenjiu playing with it lovingly, the Fourth Master shook his head in amusement and squatted down to help her open the clams.
This little girl is really easy to coax. She doesn't care about the big, round and plump pearls, but likes these exotic pearls instead.
Some large clams inevitably contain some pearls, but there are not many of good quality ones, and others are unwilling to take them. Even if they get them, they are just ground into powder for medicinal purposes. This little girl is like she has found a treasure.
"This exotic pearl is so beautiful, Master, can you make me a bracelet later?"
The Fourth Master took a look at the crooked and strange-shaped bead and finally nodded silently.
If she takes this bead out, people might think she has fallen out of favor, right?
