Chapter 588 Thick Skin



Su Yunruo said, "Besides, Sister Jin and her husband have been away from home for more than half a year. My father, mother, and brother at home are very worried about them, so I wanted to take the opportunity to visit them. I didn't expect Sister Jin and her husband were not here, and they were upset that this trip was fruitless."

I came to deliver the horses and visit Princess Ping'an.

And judging from her appearance, she seemed to be only surprised to see him, and not too happy...

Qin Peiyou felt a little cold in his heart, but when he thought that it was a great blessing to meet Su Yunruo, the smile on his face grew, "How could I get nothing? You came at the right time."

"What do you mean, Mr. Qin?"

"A few days ago, someone sent a letter saying that my cousin and Princess Ping'an were on their way from Beilun County to Xueyue Prefecture. They will arrive in three or four days at most."

Qin Peiyou smiled and said, "Since Miss Su has already arrived at Xueyue Mansion, why not wait for a few more days?"

"Yeah." Su Yunruo smiled and nodded after hearing that.

Previously, I only knew that Su Yujin, He Yanxiu and others left Xueyue Mansion for Beilun County, but I didn’t know how long it would take for them to come back, so I was a little hesitant whether to wait. Now that I know the deadline, for Su Yunruo, it is natural to meet Sister Jin.

Seeing Su Yunruo's smiling face, Qin Peiyou curled his lips unconsciously, "Miss Su, you can have lunch. I have been wandering outside for a long time and I am very hungry. I was planning to go have lunch."

"This restaurant is very famous throughout Xueyue Prefecture. All the dishes are good, especially the roasted lamb, which tastes the most delicious. Miss Su, why don't you come with us?"

As soon as Qin Peiyou finished speaking, Rong Liang's eyes widened.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had just come out of this restaurant after having a full meal, and now he was lying with his eyes open, saying that he was very hungry?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really becoming more and more shameless...

"I was just thinking about going to this restaurant for dinner." Su Yunruo said with a smile, "What a coincidence, let's go together."

"It's really a coincidence." Qin Peiyou nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and only told Rong Liang to go in and find a private room first.

Rong Liang suppressed his complaints and walked quickly to the restaurant.

The waiter had a very good memory and recognized that this was the customer who had just left the store. He hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Sir, did you leave anything behind?"

About……

It's the face.

Rong Liang coughed lightly, "My master wants to have a quiet meal, please find a clean and elegant private room for him."

The waiter was also stunned.

I just finished my meal, but now I'm hungry again. Did I grow a huge stomach, or multiple stomachs? But no matter what the reason is, since the customer is here, there is no reason not to do business.

"Okay." The waiter put the table towel on his shoulder and led Qin Peiyou, Su Yunruo and the other two who had just arrived at the store to the second floor.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but the private room was the one Qin Peiyou had just used for dinner.

Rong Liang felt more and more embarrassed, but Qin Peiyou looked around the private room with a smile, "This one is not bad, it has a unique charm."

"Yeah." Su Yunruo nodded, smiled and called the waiter to take the order.

The two masters and two servants only ordered three dishes and a soup, considering that the portions of food served in the restaurant here were very large.

Roasted lamb, braised chicken, stir-fried lilies, a tofu and vegetable soup, and the staple food is the local flatbread.

While waiting for the food to be served, the two chatted.

"It's a very long journey from the capital to here. You must have had a hard time along the way." Qin Peiyou poured Su Yunruo a cup of hot tea while speaking.

"It's not that bad." Su Yunruo replied, "Because I'm driving a lot of horses, I'm stopping and starting along the way. Although I'm sleeping in the open, I'm not too tired."

"Although I have been to many places with my parents before, most of them were between Jiangnan and the capital, and I have seen the scenery of Jiangnan and the north. The scenery of the northwest border is very rare. It is a feast for the eyes along the way."

"How many days have you been in Xueyue Mansion?" Qin Peiyou asked.

"About seven or eight days." Su Yunruo replied with a smile.

It’s been seven or eight days…

Qin Peiyou drooped his eyelids, hiding the light in his eyes, and grinned, "Since you have been here for so long, why didn't you come to look for us?"

"On the first day I arrived, I went to the government office, hoping to find Sister Jin and brother-in-law, but the guard at the door said that Sister Jin and brother-in-law were not at home, and I didn't know when they would be back, so I went to busy myself with the handover of the horses."

Su Yunruo said, "I originally thought that if I couldn't wait for Sister Jin in the next few days, I would have to go back to the horse farm. Fortunately, I met Master Qin here and learned that Sister Jin would be back in a few days. Otherwise, I would have come back empty-handed after all the hard work of traveling through mountains and rivers."

Seeing Su Yunruo talking so happily and not mentioning him in any way, Qin Peiyou pursed his lips but still smiled, "Luckily I met Miss Su, otherwise Miss Su would really regret it."

"It's fate, I guess."

He was already satisfied that he could help Su Yunruo.

"Yes." Su Yunruo smiled and nodded. "Speaking of which, since arriving at Xueyue Mansion, I have been hearing a lot about the border war. There are many different opinions. Taking this opportunity, why don't you tell me about the previous situation of the war at this border?"

Being able to turn defeat into victory and drive the unstoppable Xijinyun army out of the territory of the Qin State must have involved many brilliant moments.

Su Yunruo really wanted to listen.

And she wanted Qin Peiyou to tell her.

"Okay." Qin Peiyou opened his mouth with great interest, "Then let's start from when we first arrived at Xueyue Mansion..."

Once the conversation started, it flowed like the endless waves of a river.

Qin Peiyou spoke vividly and Su Yunruo listened very carefully, occasionally interjecting a question or two.

Such timely interaction made Qin Peiyou more interested and excited in speaking.

As the dishes were brought up by the waiter one after another, the two of them chatted while enjoying the excellent food in the restaurant.

In the private room, the aroma of delicious food filled the air, laughter filled the air, and the atmosphere was excellent.

In the private room next door, there were also delicious dishes, but the person at the table had a gloomy face and held the chopsticks tightly in his hands, as if he wanted to break the whole pair of chopsticks.

The waiter who served the dishes did not dare to say anything more when he saw this. He only brought the last dish to the table and said, "Sir, your dishes are all here. Please enjoy your meal."

The great wizard finally came to his senses and looked at the waiter, "Heat a pot of wine."

"Yes." The waiter replied and lowered his head to leave.

"Wait." The great wizard spoke again, "Boil another pot and send it to the guest next door."
