Chapter 161: The Capital Matter is Over (Finale 1)
The moment the wine jar was opened, the aroma of wine spread throughout the restaurant.
"Wow, great wine!"
Someone who is quite knowledgeable about wine would immediately exclaim in admiration upon smelling this aroma.
"Waiter, hurry up and bring it to me."
Seeing this, the bearded man couldn't wait to taste the wine.
Most people who go out and walk outside like to have a drink.
Lao Gu placed the bowl of wine in front of the guest, who immediately picked up the bowl and drank it all!
"Wow, it's really good wine!"
The drunk bearded man took out a ten-liang silver ingot from his pocket and placed it on the table. "Give me a jar of each of these three kinds of wine! And cut me some of each of the braised dishes!"
Old Gu put away the silver and quickly placed three jars of fine wine on the man's table.
As the wine was opened, three different aromas hit our noses, making everyone in the restaurant excited!
"This wine can truly be called the best in the world! I've never smelled such a fragrant wine in my life!"
An old man with a beard at the next table exclaimed, "Waiter, bring me the smallest jar!"
Old Gu's face was full of smiles, and as he listened to the shouts of the guests around him, his hands and feet became more nimble.
Soon, all the braised dishes that Qiao Qiqi had prepared last night were sold out!
However, there was still an endless stream of guests coming here attracted by the aroma of wine.
After hearing that the braised dishes were out of stock but stir-fries were available, they all started ordering stir-fries.
Seeing the strange names of the dishes, they didn't care and just ordered one or two at random.
But when the food entered their mouths, everyone was shocked!
"I didn't expect the pork could taste like this, it's amazing!"
The customer who ordered the boiled pork slices exclaimed, "This tastes so strong! So refreshing!"
In his impression, boiled pork slices were just meat slices boiled in water, but he never expected it to be so delicious!
The boiled pork slices made by Qiao Qiqi are Sichuan style, with a lot of peppercorns in it, which makes it spicy, fresh and fragrant.
When others heard this, they also ordered a serving of boiled pork slices.
Afterwards, some guests tried other dishes and were even more shocked!
"This restaurant is truly a hidden gem! I've never eaten such delicious food!"
Everyone exclaimed, "The wine is good and the food is good, this meal is totally worth it!"
On the first day of opening, the restaurant was busy for a few days until nightfall when it finally quieted down.
When Qiao Qiqi counted today's income, she found that there were over a hundred taels of silver.
"Good, let's continue tomorrow!"
Qiao Qiqi nodded in satisfaction and said to everyone with a smile.
In the afternoon, she asked Moqi to go to the pork shop in town to buy a lot of offal, pig heads and pig trotters, planning to braise them later.
That night, Qiao Qiqi began to braise the food needed for the restaurant the next day.
Of course, she also quietly took out some from the space and put them together, which could save a lot of costs.
The days passed one by one!
Half a year later, news came that Emperor Dayong had passed away.
Then came turmoil in the capital.
The crown prince of Dayong was frail and sickly. After Prince Yi brought his men into the palace, he became angry and died.
Afterwards, the entire Dayong supported Prince Yi to ascend the throne.
At this moment, Pei Shaoling, who had been lurking in the capital, appeared with the old emperor who had faked his death and produced a series of evidence of Prince Yi's crimes.
Including the evidence that he was not the old emperor's son, and that he eliminated dissidents and killed the prince and the old emperor.
Suddenly, the whole court was in an uproar!
Afterwards, Pei Shaoling produced evidence that Prince Yi had framed the Pei family.
At this time, the old emperor was heartbroken because the crown prince was killed by Prince Yi.
In addition, Prince Yi was indeed not his son, so he was arrested in court and thrown into death row!
The Pei family was also cleared of their grievances. The old emperor declared the Pei family innocent on the spot and the title was hereditary!
Pei Shaoling was also named a king of a different surname by the old emperor.
When Qiao Qiqi saw the news from Pei Shaoling, she burst into tears of joy.
In the past six months, she and the Pei family have been living quite well in this bitter and cold place, and have not let Pei Shaoling down!
"Madam, the host sent a message asking An Lei to take us back to the capital. We will arrive in three days!"
Mo Qi held the letter and said to Qiao Qiqi, who was cooking in the restaurant kitchen, "An Lei said in the letter that the old emperor is now fine under the treatment of Mr. Ruan."
"Really? That's great!"
Qiao Qiqi nodded gently, "Go talk to the old lady and ask her to clean it up!"
Her voice was faint and a little weak.
After Mo Qi walked out of the kitchen, Qiao Qiqi's face turned pale.
These days, she often dreams about the original owner of this body.
She let herself give this body back to her!
So, these days, her body has become increasingly weak.
Glancing at the horizon.
Qiao Qiqi knew that it must be the work of Heaven.
Pei's mother once said that this body was missing a soul and needed to survive a disaster before it could come back.
It seems that the Heavenly Dao is preparing to let her take back this body and force herself to leave?
A stream of warm liquid flowed from the lips.
That was the trauma caused by her and her original body's spiritual power taking over the body.
Qiao Qiqi gently wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, washed her hands, and continued to work.
Originally, she wanted to wait for Pei Shaoling to send someone to pick her up, and then she would go back with Pei's mother and the others. But it seems that it is too late!
In the past few days, the soul of her original body has been attacking her sea of consciousness.
And I often become absent-minded.
Pei Shaoling, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for your wedding!
Qiao Qiqi sighed softly and wiped away the crystal tears from the corners of her eyes again, her eyes full of reluctance.
That night, she closed her stall early and returned to the stone house in Yandong Village.
Looking around her and Pei Shaoling's room, she took out paper and pen from the space and began to write a letter to Pei Shaoling.
During this time, tears wet the paper and she had to write again.
Qiao Qiqi didn't expect that the separation would come so suddenly.
After writing the letter, Qiao Qiqi handed it to Pei Shaoan and told him to hand it to Pei Shaoling personally.
Afterwards, she went to the mountain of Yandong Village and put the food and treasures she had obtained on the road in a dry cave.
She didn't know what would happen after she left.
But she hoped that these food and property could help Pei Shaoling fulfill his wish.
In the letter, she wrote down the location where she had stored her food and the location of the treasure of the Apocalypse Kingdom.
These days, because of the struggle with her original body's soul, her mental strength began to dissipate, and sometimes she couldn't even open the supermarket space.
She knew it was almost time for her to leave.
But!
She can't bear to do it!
She hasn't really married Pei Shaoling yet, and hasn't given birth to a bunch of children with him!
I don’t know what will happen after I leave!
Will Pei Shaoling recognize that the original body is not himself? Or will he regard her as himself and spend his life with her?
