Chapter 165 Your Highness, don’t you think Songbai looks a lot like the Minister of Justice?
"So, they want to introduce Qiu Man to you?" Jiu Su thought of the honest little girl who came to pick her up, and curled the corners of her mouth. What did that little girl say? She was not interested in Jiang Jing.
Can you please stop taking your anger out on her?
She also wants to eat hot pot.
Jiang Jing nodded and said helplessly, "Yes, fortunately Qiu Man only likes eating hot pot and doesn't like the affairs of men and women. She just asked me to let Songbai serve her when we eat hot pot tomorrow."
Jiusu's lips curled up into a smile.
"Isn't this great? Girls who love to eat are blessed. So cute! From now on, all meals at Xiangfei Hotpot Restaurant will be free for Qiu Man."
Jiang Jing's courses at the academy have ended.
In just half a month, he didn't learn much, but he regained his former confidence and cheerfulness. He held her hand tightly and looked at the dark night.
"Asu, wait for me."
"Ah?" Jiusu tilted his head, looking puzzled. He glanced back at the Qiu Mansion and asked suddenly, "Are you going on a long journey?"
Jiang Jing shook his head, "I will marry you when I pass the imperial examination."
Why are we talking about this? Even teenagers can be emo sometimes. Seeing him deep in thought, Jiusu couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and patted his shoulder. "Don't be too stressed. Do your best. If it doesn't work out, I'll support you."
The money she has now should be enough to last her a lifetime.
Jiang Jing came back to his senses, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said in a clear voice: "As long as Ah Su is around, I will only eat gigolos in this life."
——
The next day.
As soon as the hot pot restaurant opens.
Many customers flocked in and the restaurant was soon full.
Originally, Xu Qihuai wanted to come over for dinner in the evening, but unexpectedly, Qiu Man couldn't wait any longer. Before dawn, she was chattering at the door about the delicious hot pot.
I didn't have breakfast.
It also aroused my appetite.
Qiu Man raised her hand: "Six people, we need a private room."
It was her first time to eat here, and because her wallet was almost empty, she ate in the hall. Today, her father and brother-in-law were here, so it was not her turn to pay!
What did Yuan Ling say in front of Songbai?
Songbai nodded and walked towards them. "Dear guests, please come in. This is the seasoning and fruit area, this is the beverage area, and this is the restroom."
Xu Qihuai sat down, looked at the waiter and nodded silently. They were indeed very handsome, not only in face but also in body manners.
Qiu Ying was also looking at him.
He also regretted his previous decision, and then looked at his father with gratitude. If his father had not stopped them, they would have lost a powerful friend and gained two powerful enemies.
She asked, "Are you the pine and cypress?"
"Yes." Songbai bowed slightly and pointed to the wooden plaque on his chest with his name engraved on it.
Qiu Ying leaned over and whispered, "Your Highness, don't you think Songbai looks a lot like the Minister of Justice?"
"Oh?" Xu Qihuai looked over, his eyes lighting up. As expected, Songbai and the Minister of Justice both had cold faces, but Songbai was smiling, while the Minister of Justice wouldn't. "So, Second Sister already has someone she likes?"
Qiu Ying didn't know either, but it was normal for a young girl to be in love.
It seems I have to take some time to ask my sister what she thinks. The Minister of Justice is also a good choice. He has good character and a high official position. Most importantly, he has no wife at home.
As the Crown Princess's sister, why can't she be the legal wife?
"Order so much?"
Before I could even notice, the table was already full of food.
Qiu Man scratched behind her ears and blushed, "Oh, so many people are eating here. Besides... isn't someone paying for it today? Right, brother-in-law..."
Under her sister's stern gaze, her voice became smaller and smaller.
Songbai smiled and said, "The boss has already said that Miss Qiu Er will not be charged for dining in the restaurant."
Qiu Man stared at him in a daze for a long time.
He stammered, "Really?"
"It's true." Songbai answered seriously. Seeing that the bottom of the pot was boiling, he smiled and said, "I'm serving the dishes for our distinguished guests. I'll put a little bit of each grid. You can try them all."
Qiu Man has experience, and under her leadership, everyone understands the use of everything.
Xu Qihuai exclaimed in delight as he looked at the bubbling soup base of the pot.
"I'm so lucky to have Second Sister's help that I can eat hot pot for free?"
Qiu Man raised her head slightly. Although he was her brother-in-law, he was still the prince. She couldn't suppress the curve of her mouth, "It's okay, hehe."
Qiu Ying knew that her second sister was favored by Jiusu.
She also understood the truth, maybe Jiang Jing told Jiusu. The second sister had no thoughts, so Jiusu treated her as a friend, and she almost became Jiusu's enemy.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Since Miss Jiu is giving it to you for free, when she's free, thank her and do some hard labor for free to repay the favor."
"Yeah, sister knows." Qiu Man nodded and ate the hot pot seriously.
The prince's personal attendant said, "Your Highness, Miss Jiu and Young Master Jiang will be here soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman with bright clothes and a beautiful figure came in from outside, blocking her breath with a fan. She frowned. It was so spicy all around. How could the prince, of noble status, eat here?
Looking out over the beautiful view of the yard.
There was a slight look of surprise on her noble face. She walked out of the box and heard the laughter inside, and her heart sank.
"Fox charmer!" Li Qingcheng cursed.
The maid whispered, "Don't be angry. The Crown Princess's family is all in a small county town. How can they compare with you? The Crown Prince likes your enthusiasm and vigor."
Li Qingcheng's anger subsided a lot, and with the help of her maid, she put on some lip balm.
She pushed open the door and said with a smile, "I greet His Highness, sister, and the Marquis. Oh, my second sister is here too? Your Highness won't blame me for coming uninvited, will he?"
That being said.
But she had already squeezed in next to the prince.
Xu Qihuai frowned, "Why are you here instead of staying at the inn?"
Li Qingcheng leaned over, her every move full of charm. She hooked her finger around the prince's and said delicately, "Your Highness didn't come back last night. I came here because I missed you."
Qiu Shishu's grip on the porcelain cup tightened. Qiu Ying's eyes were deep, unhappy but not daring to show it too much.
Qiu Man raised his head and said, "Dad, didn't you see the concubine calling you a vixen in front of the couple and making love?"
"Oh?" Qiu Shishu glanced at his little daughter helplessly. Then, he raised his glass and apologized, following Qiu Man's words, "I shouldn't have kept Your Highness here and disturbed your love."
Xu Qihuai came back to his senses: "What kind of couple are they?"
Qiu Man's eyes were filled with confusion. She blinked and asked back, "My sister was squeezed into the lower seat. If someone didn't know, they would think you two were a couple. My sister is just a passerby."
Qiu Ying gently tugged at her sister's sleeve.
He whispered, "How dare you say that."
"What are you afraid of?" Qiu Man curled her lips. "This hot pot is mine. If I don't want anyone to eat it, then I won't let them eat it. If I'm unhappy, I'll tell Miss Jiu."
She looks like a woman who has been spoiled by Jiusu.
Xu Qihuai frowned and pushed the woman who was almost sitting in his arms away, "How disrespectful of etiquette! Sit aside, don't move your chopsticks, and serve the Crown Princess."
Li Qingcheng gritted her teeth. This Qiu Man was really annoying.
Qiu Ying was a soft-hearted woman, yet she had a strong-willed sister. She asked in confusion, "Your Highness, who is this Miss Jiu?"
