Because there were too many people, one table could no longer accommodate them, so they divided it into two tables. The second and third sisters-in-law sat at one table with their children to take care of the children's food and drinks, and the rest of the people sat at another table to entertain the distinguished relatives.
Looking at this table full of delicious dishes that had never been seen in Kyoto, Marquis Xuanping suddenly felt his mouth watering and was overwhelmed by the aroma.
"Lord, Madam, these dishes are freshly prepared by the chef from the most famous Beimoting Restaurant in Jeju. Please try them. Do you like them?"
"Bei Mo Ting? What are those words?" This name sounds quite good.
“Let’s drink, don’t stop. I’ll sing a song for you, please listen attentively. Bells, drums, delicacies and jades are not expensive, I just hope I can be drunk forever and never wake up. This is the origin of 'Don’t stop drinking', isn’t it unique?” Jiang Sui explained.
"What a great saying! Bells, drums, delicacies and jade are not expensive. I just want to be drunk forever and never wake up. The boss behind this must be a person with a carefree and cheerful personality." Xuanping Hou thought to himself.
"Father-in-law, do you know who the boss behind this Bei Mo Ting is?" Xiao Hechuan kept the question in suspense.
Upon hearing this, Marquis Xuanping pretended to think:
"A person with such a character must be a talented and refined person. I would like to get to know him."
"Father-in-law, this person is far away in the sky and right in front of you!" Xiao Hechuan smiled at Jiang Sui.
Jiang Sui gave him a scolding look. The interaction between the couple fell into the eyes of Xuanping Hou and his wife. Jiang looked at her daughter in disbelief:
"Sui Sui, could it be that you are the owner behind this cup of Mo Ting?"
Jiang Sui heard this and smiled mysteriously:
"It's my little girl!"
Jiang covered her lips, her eyes still filled with disbelief. She and her husband looked at each other and then both laughed.
"My daughter is truly extraordinary!"
At this moment, the couple felt extremely proud. They couldn't believe that their daughter was so outstanding. It made them feel ashamed.
"Sui Sui knows a lot more. The hot and sour noodles she makes are unique in the whole Jeju Prefecture and no one can replicate it. Xiao's three noodle shops almost monopolize the noodle business of the entire street and have been prosperous for a long time. Our Xiao family can get better and better, all thanks to Sui Sui. An old immortal once told me in a dream that Sui Sui is the lucky koi of our family. Her arrival can change the fate of our whole family. If so, it is better to believe in the gods and Buddhas than not to believe in them. Now I firmly believe it."
When Xiao's mother thought of this, she was filled with emotion.
Jiang also agreed, and now she believed it. If she had not had those dreams, how could she have found her daughter so quickly?
The first meeting between the two families went very smoothly and harmoniously, with lots of talking and laughing. The Marquis Xuanping and his wife were very approachable, and they did not give them the impression that they were from a high-ranking noble family at all.
At first, the Xiao family was a little reserved, but soon they relaxed and got along very naturally with Marquis Xuanping and his wife.
We just arrived in Jeju today, so we should take a good rest first. Tomorrow Jiang Sui will take Jiang out for a trip.
This time, Marquis Xuanping came to Jizhou and stayed at Xiao's mansion. The governor of Jizhou also knew about it, so he specially held a banquet to entertain Xiao Hechuan, Qi Xiuyuan, and Marquis Xuanping, and also invited Marquis Shunyi and Earl Changyi to join him.
When Marquis Shunyi and Earl Changyi heard that Marquis Xuanping from Kyoto had arrived, they paid special attention to it.
Marquis Xuanping is deeply trusted by the current emperor and holds an important position in the court. There are only benefits and no harm in making friends with him. Moreover, Marquis Shunyi has bet on the right treasure, Xiao Hechuan, and is now very proud of himself.
They didn't know that Marquis Xuanping and the Xiao family were in-laws. After all, Jiang Sui's background had not been announced to the public.
In the evening, when the banquet was held, the two families had been vying to invite Marquis Xuanping and his wife to stay in their houses, and they would entertain them as the host, but Marquis Xuanping declined, saying that he lived very well in the Xiao Mansion and did not want to move.
Moreover, he didn't plan to have too much interaction with these two companies. It was just a formality.
…
Xiao Hechuan and Xuanping Hou were busy socializing. The officials and noble families in Jeju took turns to host banquets for them, so they had no time to spend time with their wives and daughters.
Therefore, Jiang Sui could only take Jiang out to play alone.
The husband took her for a walk on the bustling West Street and took her to Xiao Ji to eat hot and sour noodles.
When Jiang tasted this novel and unique hot and sour noodles, her eyes lit up instantly. However, she could not eat spicy food very well. This hot and sour noodles was spicy and intoxicating. She wanted to continue eating, but the spiciness made her cough.
"My goodness, how did you come up with these foods? How many wonderful ideas do you have in your little head?"
Jiang looked at her daughter lovingly. She also loved the roast duck that they had at the Xiao residence yesterday. The taste was great and very appetizing. She didn't expect that it was also her daughter's idea.
"That's a lot, I'll show them all to Madam later!"
Jiang Sui still hadn't called her mother yet. She wanted to wait until the truth was revealed before calling her mother. But every time she called her Madam Jiang, Jiang's expression became a little lonely. She sighed and said,
"I don't know how your brother is doing in Xuancheng. He hasn't even sent me a letter!"
At the same time, in Xuancheng, Cheng Moyang had received a letter from his father, in which he explained that they had found his sister and all the details matched up, and asked him to go directly to Jeju to meet them after finding out the truth.
Cheng Moyang was standing in a small courtyard in Xuancheng County, holding an opened letter in his hand. Judging from its condition, the letter was quite old. In the courtyard, a middle-aged couple was kneeling, with their heads down and trembling with fear.
Cheng Moyang frowned, looked at them with disgust, and finally gave an order.
"Take Zhao Yong with you and head to Jeju immediately!"
He has already learned the truth of what happened that year. His father and mother are still waiting, and he is also anxious to see his sister and does not want to delay even a moment.
On the other side in Jeju, Jiang Sui brought Jiang Shi to Bei Moting. She had already told Jiang Shi that she was afraid of causing trouble for Hechuan. This Bei Moting was under the name of her godfather, and she was the boss behind the scenes.
Half a year later, Fang Miao finally met Jiang Sui again. At that time, she was counting the bill at the counter. It was not yet mealtime and there were not many customers in the store.
A handsome young man in a scarlet brocade robe was leaning lazily against the counter, his chin in his hand as he stared at Fang Miao while she was doing the bill.
Fang Miao looked up and saw Jiang Sui, her face full of surprise:
"Sui Sui, you're here?"
Yesterday, the top scholar returned home in glory, and the whole city came to admire him. She had also heard about it, and had been looking forward to Jiang Sui coming to visit her.
Jiang Sui smiled and nodded:
"Please arrange a private room for me so we can sit down and chat!"
The man in red turned around and suddenly met Jiang. Jiang was startled when she saw him and wanted to bow:
"Meet Chu..."
"Hehe, Miao'er, this is the good sister you mentioned, right? Would you like to introduce her to me?" Helian Heng said, winking at Jiang, asking her not to reveal her identity.
Jiang was smart and understood it instantly.
