The capital city is full of dignitaries and nobles, and there are countless servants and maids, but only a few of them can meet good masters.
Just in the half-life he has been setting up stalls in the capital, he has seen many masters beating and scolding servants in the street, or simply dragging them away to be sold.
Seeing Xu Tianze and Yin Liu joking so openly, I was also moved.
When Yinliu heard the old man's first words, her face turned red and she wanted to refute him, but she kept silent after hearing his second words.
Because what the old man said was indeed true. If she had not met her master, she would probably be a concubine in an official's house or sold to a brothel as a prostitute.
"Uncle's sesame cakes smell delicious. I guess he has his own unique craftsmanship." Xu Tianze took over the conversation with a smile and lightly brought up the topic of marriage.
"This young man has a good eye. I have been selling these sesame cakes for half my life, and it is thanks to this that I have many repeat customers." The old man's eyes lit up when he heard Xu Tianze's words.
His expression was full of pride. It was thanks to this skill that he was able to marry, have children, and raise his son alone.
After a while, he will be able to use this skill to marry his son. Then he can hand over everything to his son and daughter-in-law and live out his retirement at home in peace.
"Try it quickly." Xu Tianze nodded with a smile, then gestured to Yinliu.
He had eaten at this restaurant with his elder brother Meng when he was young, so he naturally knew that the taste was excellent, otherwise he would not have sat down directly and let the old man serve the sesame cakes.
The crust of this pancake is slightly crispy, sprinkled with white sesame seeds, and there is a little sesame paste inside. It tastes soft and sweet, and is absolutely delicious.
"Sir, this pancake is really delicious. I have never eaten such delicious pancakes." Yin Liu took a bite of the pancake and started eating it in big mouthfuls, her words were also unclear.
But the old man still heard the word "delicious" clearly, smiled proudly and turned back to the stove.
"Eat slowly, and pack a few more when you leave. No one will snatch them from you." Xu Tianze shook his head in amusement, then ate his pancake slowly.
No matter when, Xu Tianze never forgets the etiquette engraved in his bones, although he often expresses disdain.
However, habits formed over more than ten years will still be revealed inadvertently.
"It's cold, why are you here, Xiaoze?"
Xu Tianze looked up and was a little surprised to see the person coming: "Song Yu, you are not at home watching Qing Yuan, how do you have time to hang out?"
Especially in such weather. You know, Qingyuan was sent to the door by Nan Xueyan, so it should be difficult for Song Yu to handle this matter.
Otherwise, he would not have given up showing up during the day when they were all in the Imperial Examination Hall.
"Just passing by." Seeing the surprise on Xu Tianze's face, Song Yu changed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Xu Tianze looked at the carriage and Dai Nian parked behind Song Yu, nodded thoughtfully, and did not ask any more questions.
"The virtuous king is not with you? Why don't you come back with me to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?" Song Yu first wanted to ask the virtuous king, then suddenly remembered something and added this sentence.
Xu Tianze looked strange when he heard Song Yu's words. He had finally sorted things out with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but Song Yu not only didn't stop him, but actually wanted him to come to his house.
Aren’t you afraid that some gossip will spread in the capital and embarrass the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion?
"No, I have somewhere to go." Xu Tianze still shook his head and rejected Song Yu's invitation.
Even if he doesn't care about gossip, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion doesn't care either, what happened in front of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion that year is still a knot in his heart. If it is not necessary, he probably won't visit again.
"The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is also your home." Song Yu looked a little anxious when he heard Xu Tianze's refusal.
The words that came out of his mouth stunned both Xu Tianze and him.
After Xu Tianze reacted, he realized that Song Yu came out to look for him. It was not a coincidence that he passed by, nor was it that he met him by chance after looking for someone else.
Xu Tianze looked at Song Yu meaningfully, and then quietly ate the wontons in his bowl.
He was also stupid. He actually forgot what kind of person Song Yu was. As for whether he had a family or not, he really didn't want to continue discussing it here.
"Xiao Ze, that's not what I meant. I..." Song Yu explained anxiously, but the more anxious he became, the less he could organize his words.
The words he just said directly blocked himself. The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was Xiaoze's home, but Xiaoze had never acknowledged his adoptive father.
In the final analysis, since Ozawa was being used as a pawn, he was essentially stabbing Ozawa with a knife.
"Song Yu, if you have nothing to do, go back. Remember to go to the Imperial Examination Hall tomorrow." Xu Tianze interrupted Song Yu with a somewhat impatient look on his face.
It's a good time. Why not use his time to do something that really needs him? Instead, why is he just messing with him here?
"Xiao Ze, what I mean is that your adoptive father misses you very much. Since you can't go back to Prince Xian's Mansion, you can come to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion." Song Yu still wanted to fight for it.
"Song Yu, your claws are stretching too long." Xu Tianze turned his head quickly and warned Song Yu when he heard his words.
He didn't care about the news of his quarrel with the virtuous king being leaked, but saying it in public made it clear that Song Yu had someone in the palace.
Although it is raining and there are few pedestrians on the street, there are still many people hiding from the rain at this stall. Song Yu is really bold.
If the news gets out, who knows how much trouble it will cause. Could it be that he wants to kill people to silence them?
"The Duke of Zhenguo's words are really confusing. Who said I can't go back to my Xianwang Mansion?"
