Several people reminisced about the past with Lu Jing for a while, and also learned some basic information about Shu County.
The conditions in the Shu County Governor's Mansion are much better than before.
The tired people soon settled down to rest.
The next day, several people woke up to the sound of cicadas and human voices.
Zhao Jun looked at the big tree outside the window and heard the chirping of cicadas not far away. Then he suddenly realized that it was already midsummer.
It was noon and everyone was resting well.
Lu Jing had asked the kitchen to prepare food early, and when they wandered into the hall, the table was already full of food.
"Everyone is awake now. I specially asked the kitchen to prepare some dishes that are not too spicy. I am afraid that you, my lord, coming from Xianyang, may not be used to the spicy dishes of Shu County."
Lu Jing said this very considerately.
pity.
"Master Lu, you don't know that I love spicy food. We tried the special dishes at the Shuke Yunlai Restaurant in the city yesterday. The spicy rabbit meat here is very good."
"Don't ask the kitchen to cook only bland dishes from now on."
Zhao Jun sat at the table and looked at the dish which obviously had no chili peppers and smacked his lips.
"Ahem, I think we can still keep a few light dishes."
Xiao He sat down behind and was very satisfied with the food.
Lu Jing looked at Zhao Jun and then glanced at Xiao He, and then he understood.
"No problem. I'll ask the kitchen to make half and half later."
"Oh no, just make him something else. I can eat spicy food too."
Liu Bang, who was walking last, raised objections again.
"Okay, okay."
Lu Jing nodded stiffly, somewhat helplessly.
After they finished eating, which was considered lunch, Liu Bang clamored to go out for a walk.
Now that they have entered the city, he has to have some fun now in order to avoid going to those remote mountains later.
Zhao Jun had no objection, as she also wanted to buy something.
"Master Lu, what does Chengjia Shu embroidery sell? How do they sell it? If I want to buy some, where should I go? Do they have a shop?"
Now that we are in Shu County, of course we have to go and see Shu embroidery.
"No, Shu embroidery is always in short supply. If it were hung in the shop, it would probably be gone before the stock is fully stocked."
"To buy Shu embroidery from the Cheng family, you need to make a reservation. You have to pay a deposit and then go directly to the Cheng family's embroidery workshop to queue up to receive the goods. Usually, even if you pay the deposit, you have to wait until next year to receive the goods."
"However, every year Chengjia has a small amount of unsold stock, so it depends on luck to buy it. The large number of merchants coming now are partly trying to grab a spot on this year's reservation list, but more people actually want to buy Shu brocade."
"Although there aren't such exquisite embroidery in Shu County, the colors and materials are still first-class. Moreover, this kind of fabric does not need to be pre-ordered, and the quantity will be larger."
Lu Jing explained the key to them.
"Sir, if you want to see it, I can take you to a shop that sells Shu brocade first, and then Shu embroidery. I might have to visit the Cheng family."
"Okay, since we're just going to stroll around anyway, it might be nice to go check out the Shu brocade first. Then you can be our tour guide today."
Zhao Jun teased without any hesitation.
"Guide?"
Lu Jing had never heard of this term, but he could roughly guess what it meant.
"Of course, it's my honor to be a tour guide for these adults."
After saying that, Lu Jing warmly invited everyone to go out.
Several people were walking on the streets full of pedestrians. Although Lu Jing was not wearing official uniform, he was still recognized by many people.
Many ordinary people were greeting him, and Lu Jing responded with a smile.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Jun couldn't help but tease him.
"It seems that Lord Lu is still very popular in Shu County. Everyone knows you, which means you are doing a good job."
Lu Jing touched his head embarrassedly.
"No, no, it's all thanks to the people. Actually, there's another reason that I'm embarrassed to say."
"The people of Shu County are so enthusiastic, they always want to find me a marriage partner..."
ah?
Several people around turned to look at him.
“Hahahahahahaha.”
Zhao Jun couldn't help laughing out loud, and Xiao He couldn't help laughing either.
Lu Jing's face turned even redder.
"Hahaha, you can't blame the people for being so enthusiastic. Look at you, you've become a county magistrate at such a young age, you're so handsome and unmarried, you're definitely the top son-in-law candidate in the hearts of the people."
She laughed and joked that it seemed that single young men could not escape the fate of being introduced to a partner at any time.
"Sir, please stop laughing at me."
Lu Jing looked up to the sky helplessly.
"You're being nice, aren't you? If it were me, I'd just go along with it and choose the prettiest one to marry."
Liu Bang was talking nonsense again, but no one paid any attention to him.
"A man like Lord Lu will certainly not have trouble finding a good wife."
It was a rare occasion for Xiao He to make a joke.
"Oh, really? So, Master Xiao has already married?"
Lu Jing asked out of politeness, but accidentally hit the funny spot.
Xiao He was stunned for a few seconds in embarrassment.
Zhao Jun laughed again and even added fuel to the fire.
"Yes, Xiao He, you seem to be older than Lord Lu, so why haven't you married yet? Otherwise, let the people of Shu County find one for you."
This time, Xiao He was silent.
Several people were teasing each other and telling jokes.
Not long after, Zhao Jun clearly felt that there were more people on the street.
"This is the most famous Jinmao Street in Shu County. The 'Jin' here refers to the Shu brocade of the Cheng family. Everyone here can clearly feel that there are many more people on the street."
