Xiao Family

It's another holiday.

The children don't have to go to school, but they get up earlier than if they had to go to school.

Because yesterday during dinner, Xie Qingyun sent someone to say that the halogen restaurant was open!

On the opening day, there will be jugglers, lion dances, and gongs and drums to make it lively, so Xie Qingyun came over and said that if Yan Qiushu was interested, she could go and watch, and the mansion would prepare guards to accompany her for protection.

Yan Qiushu has always been paying attention to the halal shop.

They also expressed the hope to open before the Chinese New Year.

Because before the Chinese New Year, it is the time when everyone is willing to spend money. Even families with poor conditions will do their best to get some delicious food during the Chinese New Year to celebrate.

But she didn't pay attention to the specific progress because she didn't know how to do business.

In her previous life, her main business was live streaming and selling goods. Later, after she made money, she began to contract land and sell some green and pollution-free fruits and vegetables that were grown in front of everyone. She had never been involved in a serious business.

Unexpectedly, the surprise came.

Now that it's open, I'll have to go check it out.

Her three children, who were having dinner at her place, also eagerly expressed their desire to join in.

Halogen is something they have all eaten, so we can open a halogen shop at home and everyone will come to buy the things they like. It's so interesting.

Because of Yan Qiushu’s participation, the children were also looking forward to it, like a cloud store opening, so they also wanted to go and take a look.

The three of them tacitly came to Yan Qiushu's place early to gather, waiting for her to finish washing and take them away.

But after Yan Qiushu got up, she still had to dress up, so they had to wait a little longer.

She seldom puts on makeup. She only puts on makeup when she goes out or might need to meet someone new. She has been here for more than three months. Now, as she sits in front of the dressing mirror and puts on makeup seriously, she suddenly realizes that the woman in the mirror is very different from the original owner she saw at the beginning.

Both her demeanor and mental outlook were completely different, and she was becoming more and more like herself.

Although the facial features still look the same, if you look closely, you will feel that they have changed. Perhaps even the original owner's family members may not be able to recognize them at first glance.

Yan Qiushu looked at An Xin and drew her eyebrows in front of the mirror little by little. Soon a pair of heroic eyebrows appeared. She sharpened the eyebrow pencil and added some eyeliner to the end of the eyes to make the eyes look upward. She even used lip balm to draw a smiling lip.

However, the originally innocent and naive face turned into a cute girl with slightly bright colors.

The difference is even bigger!

Shui Yu was stunned by this action. When Yan Qiushu packed up and left, Dongdong was still confused and asked, "Are you Sister Shu?"

Yan Qiushu slowly put on the veil, revealing only a pair of big dark eyes. She blinked: "What do you think?"

Wan'er happily came over and hugged her thighs and said, "Sister Shu, you are so beautiful!"

Yan Qiushu was immediately overjoyed, hugging Wan'er and praising her, "Wan'er is so pretty too!"

The little girl was wearing a brand new light yellow dress today, and she looked like a blooming flower in the winter. She was praised and so shy that she fell into her arms with her rosy face in her hands.

Unfortunately, Yan Qiushu couldn't hold her, so she held her hand and took Dongdong and Shen Pingyu out for a ride in a carriage.

It was not yet nine o'clock when they arrived.

But many people had already gathered around the halal shop.

In fact, they had been in trial operation for three days before the official opening. During these three days, they didn't have much stock, but everyone was able to come and try it.

Therefore, the saline taste has conquered many people.

When it officially opened, with everything offered at 20% off, many people waited here, hoping to be the first to buy it.

People of this era adapt to salty tastes just like the Xiao family's stomachs: they have no adverse reactions and some even enjoy it.

However, the location of the salty food shop is not very good. To compare it to modern times, it should be outside the Third Ring Road, which is a bit far. But its fragrance spreads for miles. Even if it cannot attract customers by its location, it can still attract people by its fragrance.

Before she got close enough, Yan Qiushu smelled something in the carriage.

After getting off the carriage, she looked at the bustling streets and the crowded shop entrances and was completely satisfied.

This was her idea!

And she still has 20% of the shares!

Dongdong, Wan'er and Shen Pingyu had never seen such a scene before. Their mouths widened in amazement. Dongdong murmured, "There are so many people!"

Wan'er stood on tiptoe, but still couldn't see anything. She said in disappointment, "Sister Shu, what should we do?"

Yan Qiushu was also confused. She was not tall enough to see the main point. She would not be able to see the dragon and lion dances when the business opened. She thought for a moment and said, "Then let's just watch the excitement!"

"Ah?" The three children looked at her.

Yan Qiushu looked around and found a quiet shop that happened to be selling tofu pudding. She went over and spent four cents to buy four bowls of tofu pudding: "Just watch here."

She couldn't possibly squeeze into the crowd with her three children, could she?

This area, which is the one in front of us, is a commercial street with not much traffic. There are two- or three-story teahouses and wine houses in places like the inner ring road. There are such buildings here, but they are other people's residences and cannot be climbed.

"Okay!" The children nodded sensibly and sat down.

Although I couldn't see anything specific, I could still see that it was lively and there was food to eat, so it wasn't bad.

Yan Qiushu held the tofu pudding in her mouth and gulped it down, smacking her lips, but she felt unsatisfied. The tofu pudding was tender, like water but not water, and seemed to be solid, but it melted in her mouth and had a light sweetness, but that was all.

She asked, "Boss, do you have any sugar?"

The boss said enthusiastically: "Yes, Miss, would you like some sugar?"

Yan Qiushu nodded, added sugar to the four bowls of tofu pudding, paid again, and continued drinking.

Although the price of this tofu pudding has increased several times, it tastes much better. The sweet taste wraps around the tender and smooth tofu pudding. When you touch it with the tip of your tongue, the tofu pudding turns into water and overflows your lips and teeth, alleviating the choking sweetness brought by the white sugar. It is really sweet but not greasy.

Dongdong and the other two rarely eat at roadside stalls like this, and they were enjoying their meal very much. Wan'er took two sips and looked at Yan Qiushu, habitually reporting her feelings: "Sweet, smooth, and delicious!"

Shen Pingyu took a sip and said happily, "Mm, it tastes good."

Dongdong drank it all up in a gulp, then wiped his mouth: "It's delicious! Sister Shu, I want more!"

The boss smiled and said, "Thank you for your interest. Can I give you some free extra?"

"No, just taste it." Yan Qiushu stopped the boss and looked at Dongdong: "If you eat and drink too much, you won't be able to eat anything else at noon~"

Dongdong immediately stopped talking and looked at the crowd.

Just as the sound of gongs and drums appeared, the excitement before the opening officially began. Cheers came from the crowd, and the heads of the lion dancers often jumped out of the crowd.

The three children were also stunned with surprise, staring at it without blinking: "Wow... so amazing!"

At this time, on the second floor of a residential building on the same street

A man and a woman were discussing in a low voice: "The Sixth Prince will be here later, don't worry, we will definitely make him take the bait..."

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, with a bit of trepidation: "This time the Third Prince got into trouble, and the Fifth Prince took the opportunity to place his own people to deal with the Qiao family. Concubine Lu is too good at persuading us. We must make the Sixth Prince believe that you can help him take down the Xiao family, otherwise the Fifth Prince will really dominate the situation..."

Yan Qiuyuan reminded him seriously, fearing that he might not do it.

Who could have thought that the Qiao family, which was supposed to have an accident a year later, would have an accident now, so long in advance, and it was the Xiao family who was behind it!

That doesn't make sense!

In the previous life, the Xiao family was clearly on the same boat with the third prince. However, the Xiao family was old-fashioned and would not help anyone even if they had a relationship, and instead made themselves vulnerable to enemies from all sides.

Worse still, when the third prince fell ill, the old emperor took advantage of the situation to anger the Xiao family, and the youngest member of the Xiao family, Xiao Pingzhou, was imprisoned in the Tianlao together. Xiao Huaiqi had no choice but to ask for forgiveness despite his illness, which led to him being bedridden later.

Afterwards, the faction of the fifth prince and the faction of the sixth prince fought against each other, fearing that the Xiao family would follow someone else, so they tried their best to kill the Xiao family. They also seized food and fodder while Xiao Huaiting was fighting outside, which led to the incident of Xiao Huaiting leading his troops to fight to the death.

But the Xiao family, who should have been ordered by the old emperor to pass on the lineage of the Third Prince, actually dared to take action personally and do such a thing. Moreover, this move was swift, accurate and ruthless, as if they had already known about the Qiao family's affairs.

But this change is too strange!

Could it be that she was reborn?

Yan Qiuyuan was very worried. What if this affected her fiancé's path to the throne? Wouldn't she have defeated Yan Qiushu for nothing?

After all, the road to becoming an emperor is full of dangers.

Zhou Zejing, the prince of Jin, comforted her softly, "No, I have already contacted the Song family..."

Just as the words came out, there was a bright and loud sound: "Dongdongdong..."

“Wipe, wipe, wipe…”

"Dongcha, dongcha, dongcha..."

The sound of gongs and drums gradually rose, overbearing and loud, drowning out his voice. The man's face froze and he looked out the window. However, the people downstairs did not pay any attention to him. Instead, the sound became louder and louder, and even the fragrance became stronger and stronger. The noise made the people cheer along, and it was deafening.

It's really noisy, and...

Too fragrant!

In this situation, it is obviously impossible to speak quietly.

As a result, it might not be possible to secretly receive the Sixth Prince later. With so many people around, if they are seen, the Prince Jin’s Palace will be finished!

Zhou Zejing said with a dark face: "Who opened a store here? You are not allowed to open the door tomorrow!"

After a while, the confidant knocked on the door and came in, lowering his head and saying, "Your Highness, it's the Xiao family. They bought the shop in front a few days ago..."

Both of them: “?”

“Why did they buy such a remote shop???”

The confidant smelled the fragrance in the air and guessed, "Maybe good wine needs no bush?"

Both of them: "..."
