Chapter 29 Congratulations to Shopkeeper Jiang
After breakfast, Jiang Yueyao went to Wanhe Tower.
Today is the day she officially takes over Wanhelou. Seeing her coming so early, the waiters at the restaurant couldn't help but tease her.
"Could it be that Shopkeeper Jiang was so excited that he didn't sleep all night last night?"
"Where did this girl come from? She's actually three times more beautiful than a fairy."
"Congratulations, Shopkeeper Jiang! Today is a great day. Would you like to give the guys some tips?"
Jiang Yueyao held a feather duster in her hand and knocked on them one by one.
"You feel poorer day by day. Be careful about your monthly salary being deducted."
Having said that, I still asked Sulan to go to Baozhai Pavilion and buy some snacks and candies to distribute to everyone.
The busiest times of the day for a restaurant are lunch and dinner.
But Jiang Yueyao is busier. All expenses of the restaurant have to go through her hands. As a new official, she is extremely busy.
In the afternoon, she went to a farm on the outskirts of the city.
This farm specializes in supplying fresh fruits and vegetables to Wanhelou. The restaurant's ingredients must be guaranteed to be fresh, so she was worried and went there in person.
The owner of the manor was very polite. Jiang Yueyao took a look around the vegetable garden and was quite satisfied.
When I returned to the city, the sun was setting.
I got the news as soon as I entered the restaurant.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, in the Shifang Pavilion in the backyard."
When Jiang Yueyao heard this, she forgot to drink the water that was right at her lips.
"Prince?"
"Yes, it's been a while since I last met you. Go and have a look."
Jiang Yueyao didn't even bother to drink the water. She put down the cup and headed to the backyard.
There is a pavilion separating the backyard from the front.
As the sun sets in the west, the lanterns on the waterside pavilion have been lit up. Beyond the waterside pavilion is the area where the nobles dine.
The square pavilion has gauze curtains gently drawn around it, and inside are placed fine pearwood tables and chairs.
As Jiang Yueyao approached Shifang Pavilion, she was stopped by the guards around the prince.
"Who?"
Jiang Yueyao smiled and said, "I'm Jiang Yueyao, the shopkeeper of Wanhe Tower. I heard that the Crown Prince has arrived, so I came to ask if there's anything you need from His Highness."
The other party looked skeptical.
"Are you the new owner of Wanhe Tower?"
"Exactly."
The other party looked her up and down before letting her in.
Jiang Yueyao stepped onto the stairs and saw a person sitting in the pavilion out of the corner of her eye. Because the person was of noble status, she didn't dare to look at him for too long. She entered the Shifang Pavilion and greeted him politely.
"Commoner Jiang Yueyao greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Prince Chu Xiao was originally playing with the teacup in his hand out of boredom. When he saw someone coming in, he looked up.
He came to Wanhelou today, but did not see Manager Luo coming to greet him. After asking, he found out that Manager Luo had returned to his hometown to retire, and the current manager was a woman.
He originally thought it would be a smart woman, but he never expected that it would be a beautiful young lady.
Chu Xiao instantly became interested.
He raised his hand: "Stand up, no need to be polite."
Jiang Yueyao had just stood up when she heard the other party ask.
"Are you the new female manager of Wanhelou?"
"It is my daughter."
Chu Xiao smiled and asked, "You look young, how old are you this year?"
"Sixteen already."
"Only sixteen?" Chu Xiao looked surprised. "How can you manage Wanhe Tower at such a young age? Who hired you here? Manager Luo?"
"It's Lord Lu."
"Lu Sui?" Chu Xiao looked surprised. "He recruited you?"
"That's right." Jiang Yueyao felt that there was nothing to hide.
Lu Sui was the teacher of the Crown Prince, who was also the Prince's biological son. The two had a close relationship, so he would know about this sooner or later.
Chu Xiao looked at Jiang Yeyao carefully again.
Finally, he smiled and nodded slightly.
"I believe in the Grand Tutor's judgment. Since he has hired you as the shopkeeper, it means you must have something extraordinary."
Jiang Yueyao didn't want to say too much about this matter, so she changed the subject lightly.
"What would you like to eat, Your Highness? The restaurant has some new Suzhou dishes. Would you like to try them?"
"Okay, I spent some time in Su City a few years ago. Su cuisine is delicious, and I really like it." He continued, "Don't worry, the Grand Tutor will be here soon. It won't be too late to serve the dishes after he arrives."
"yes."
Jiang Yueyao retreated.
She left the backyard and entered the lobby.
At this moment, the lobby was already full of guests.
She had just walked to the counter and was about to see if there were a few private rooms upstairs that were not full when a group of young ladies in luxurious clothes walked in.
The young lady in the lead was wearing a rouge-red skirt, which happened to be the same color as Jiang Yueyao's.
She glanced at Jiang Yueyao and her face immediately darkened.
"What bad luck! How come I have the same color as a waiter?"
She reached out and tugged at her skirt, looking unhappy.
The woman standing next to her said hurriedly, "Princess, please don't be angry. How can her ordinary dress compare to your feather gauze dress?"
The girl who was called Princess was still unhappy.
She walked to the counter and looked at Jiang Yueyao.
Arrogant.
"Don't wear this color dress again. Don't you know that I like rouge the most?"
I met all kinds of people when I ran the inn.
Jiang Yueyao felt that she had become strong enough through cultivation and could easily deal with ordinary people.
Unexpectedly, on his first day in office in the capital, he met an extraordinary person.
Jiang Yueyao felt that her request was really rude.
But because the restaurant was at its busiest at this time, she didn't want to cause trouble.
Then he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."
I thought this matter was over.
Unexpectedly, the other party stared at her for a long time, and finally sneered: "A waiter in a restaurant actually dressed herself up so extravagantly. It's really obvious that she has lice on her bald head."
This sounds harsh.
Jiang Yueyao was about to speak when a waiter came hurriedly from the backyard.
"Boss, several distinguished guests from the Peony Pavilion want to try our new Thousand Explosive Bells, but we've run out of them. Sister Lan told you to send someone to buy some as soon as possible."
Jiang Yueyao nodded, turned around and was about to find someone to go out and buy some.
But after taking two steps, he was stopped by the princess again.
The other party was a little bit unbelievable.
"Are you the owner of Wanhe Tower?"
"That's right." Jiang Yueyao didn't want to argue with her any further. "Have you, the distinguished guests, booked a private room? I'll ask someone to take you up."
"I usually go to the Peony Shop in the backyard, but today it's been occupied." She looked unhappy. "How do you manage to be the shopkeeper? Don't you know that this princess only likes the Peony Shop?"
The person in front of me is deliberately making things difficult for me.
Jiang Yueyao ignored her.
He raised his hand and beckoned to a place not far away: "Li Bo, come here."
The servant named 'Li Bo' came running over.
"Go to Mr. Qian's shop on West Street and get five boxes of bells first." She took out a silver ingot and said, "Take a carriage and hurry."
"yes."
After Li Bo left, Jiang Yueyao turned around to leave, but someone grabbed her arm.
She turned around and looked at him: "Is there anything else, Princess?"
"Didn't you hear what I just said? I want the Peony House."
"There's already a distinguished guest at the Peony House, and there's also the Biyao Pavilion and Qiushui Pavilion in the backyard. Would you like to choose one?"
"They are distinguished guests, but I am not? How can you look down on others!" She said, reaching out and pushing hard.
Jiang Yueyao never expected this person to be so rude and arrogant.
Her arm was already being pulled by her, and the other party pushed hard.
His balance was unstable, and he staggered backward, about to fall.
A big hand reached out and supported her waist in time...
