Just when Bi Chen was amazed at Nangong Yao's ability to cover the retreat, she didn't expect that the next second, her body was dragged directly into the hot pot restaurant.
"This is 1,000 taels of gold. Can I skip the queue?"
The shopkeeper looked at the gold bills in front of him, his eyes widened, he swallowed, and silently turned his head to look at Leng Furong who was keeping accounts beside him, he was obviously frightened!
Although there are usually such rich people who want to use silver to solve the problem of not having to queue, the maximum they can give is one or two hundred taels.
But what is in front of me is a gold note, and it is one thousand taels of gold. Converted into silver, that would be ten thousand taels!
"Sir, please come this way."
Leng Furong stood up calmly, took the gold note with a smile, and put it in the shopkeeper's hand. She walked out of the counter and made a gesture of invitation to the two of them.
She is not a fool. She opens a business to make money. She makes the rules herself, so why can't she change them?
If someone came with 1,200 gold notes to buy a seat every day, Leng Furong would be more than happy to do so. She would definitely reserve a few more empty boxes!
Bi Chen, who was dragged by Nangong Yao to the counter, was stunned again when she saw Nangong Yao's generosity!
It was not until Leng Furong walked out of the counter and gestured to them with a smile that she suddenly realized that this store could operate in this way!
Just when Bi Chen was feeling ashamed of Leng Furong's behavior of bowing to money, who knew that when he walked through the backyard and past the kitchen, his dissatisfaction with Leng Furong suddenly disappeared!
Even Nangong Yao was a little confused. They thought that this store actually had space and the purpose was just to create an atmosphere and attract attention. Unexpectedly, the three of them arrived at an elegant courtyard.
In the small courtyard, under a big tree full of pear blossoms, Jun Yumo and his wife sat opposite each other with a copper pot in the middle. The fragrance from the copper pot filled the entire courtyard, swallowing up the subtle fragrance of the pear blossoms. The table was filled with exquisite dishes, and several guards stood far behind them. The two of them were eating happily!
"Sister, this young master was very generous and gave me 1,000 taels of gold directly. He didn't want to wait for a seat, so I brought him here.
I have the mentality of not making any money if I don’t make any, since they are good friends with my elder sister and King Mo.”
Chaoge was pulled aside by Leng Furong and spoke in a low voice.
Hearing this, Chaoge looked at Leng Furong in surprise, "Didn't I tell you not to reveal that this store has anything to do with me?"
"Don't worry, big sister. I'll say you are my honored guest, so you will be treated specially."
Chaoge smiled and nodded at Leng Furong, "Well, that's not bad. A meal netted me nine thousand nine hundred taels of silver, which is a good deal. You can get busy first."
Leng Furong smiled, nodded, and then left.
"No way, Aunt Huang, you guys are hiding here to eat?!
What does this mean? So, the shopkeeper and you have such a good relationship. Last time, I didn’t have to queue up when I followed Aunt Huang, but this time, the shopkeeper even gave Aunt Huang a special meal? "
After watching Chaoge and Leng Furong whispering for a few words, Leng Furong left. Bi Chen couldn't suppress her inner excitement. She walked up and grabbed Chaoge's hand, with an envious look on her face!
"Is your nose okay?"
"It's not a big deal, just a nosebleed, it can be treated with a little treatment, but..."
But the little royal uncle deliberately found an excuse to let himself and Nangong Yao return to the palace, just wanting to take his little royal aunt to eat alone and enjoy their own world!
But she didn't dare to say it!
Understanding the grievance in the little girl's eyes, Chaoge shook his head with amusement and pulled her to sit aside.
After a while, the waiter brought the pot, bowls and chopsticks, and Nangong Yao was also curious about this new way of eating.
Smelling the fragrance in the yard, he felt a little hungry, and he no longer had the leisure to care about the fact that he had spent 12,000 taels of silver to have the chance to have a meal with his senior brothers and sisters-in-law.
"The fragrance that fills the restaurant is coming from here?"
"Isn't it? Your Majesty Nangong, you will know how delicious it is once you have tried it. I'm just not sure if Your Majesty Nangong can get used to the spicy taste. But it won't be too spicy if you dip it in a dipping sauce."
After she finished speaking, Princess Bi Chen raised her head and met Jun Yumo's cold eyes. She suddenly felt weak in her heart and hurriedly buried her head to continue eating the meat.
She also didn't expect that the owner of this hot pot restaurant was so greedy for money. For the sake of ten thousand taels of silver, he sent her and Nangong Yao to disturb his own uncle!
But Nangong Yao had already given the silver and they had sat down, so it would be a waste not to eat. Besides, it was ten thousand taels of silver, not a small amount. She would not leave, even if the young uncle stared at her forehead until a bump came out!
Nangong Yao didn't care about some people's cold faces. Along the way, he listened to Bi Chen talking about how delicious this thing was, which made him unable to wait.
While watching others eat, he learned how to eat. After a while, he finally had the first piece of mutton in his mouth.
As soon as Nangong Yao took the delicious and tender mutton in his mouth, his eyes lit up and he started chewing it quickly.
This meal was indeed just a meal, with almost no communication throughout the entire process.
Except for Nangong Yao who occasionally asked about how to eat the fresh ingredients, the others just focused on eating.
Jun Yumo, on the other hand, was much more reserved. He was helping Chaoge prepare the dishes the whole time. His hands-on approach and his image as a gentle and considerate good man overturned Bi Chen's seriousness towards Jun Yumo.
She really didn't realize that her little uncle was such a gentle man in front of the imperial aunt.
No wonder, no wonder Aunt Huang asked her to give up Xiao Zhehan and said that she should find someone who loves her for the rest of her life, so that she could live her life to its full potential.
So, is this what it means to be in love?
Therefore, if you only like someone but the other person does not know how to give in return, you will get tired sooner or later.
So now she is tired and she doesn't want to like him anymore. It seems that Xiao Zhehan's determination has also completely chilled her heart.
Especially at the beginning, when she was engaged to Dongfang Ke and Xiao Zhehan remained indifferent, she was heartbroken.
That's great. This way, she won't be sad and depressed because of him like before. Maybe what Aunt Huang said is right. Sooner or later, she will meet someone who only has eyes for her.
"I didn't expect that Canglan Dynasty has such delicious food. It seems that Zhannan Kingdom really has a lot to learn from Canglan Dynasty. I wonder if this kind of food can be taught, otherwise I won't be able to eat it after returning to Zhannan Kingdom."
After the feast, Nangong Yao looked very satisfied. He was so full that he couldn't eat another bite. However, he was already thinking about how he could continue to eat such delicious food after returning to Zhannan Kingdom.
"If you want to eat it, I will ask the shopkeeper to prepare some of this base material, and then Your Majesty Nangong can take it back and ask the imperial chef to cook it for you."
