Chapter 311 Little Troublemaker
Although Si Linglong said that there was no need to ask for permission, it was not so easy for a concubine to go out.
As soon as they reached the door, they asked someone to stop them. Helian Yue naturally also received the request.
Almost subconsciously, I planned to refute her and tell her not to go.
But thinking that on the way back to Beijing, there would be little chance to go out except to hurry, and since the departure was delayed for a day to give her and Xuesha a rest, it would be up to her whether she wanted to stay in the house or go out.
Thinking of this, Helian Yue nodded and responded to the messenger, "Tell Huo Shan to arrange a few imperial guards to follow him, so as not to lose him."
As for List 1, he will definitely follow.
Si Linglong waited at the door for a while, and then received a message from Helian Yue. She felt indescribably complicated.
The feeling was probably like "I thought you would stop me, but you didn't even stop me when the oiran danced with you." Si Linglong was instantly distressed.
Soon after she left the house, she shut herself up in the carriage.
Shuhong and Qinglu each looked at Xuesha and Lisheng. Seeing her listless appearance, they couldn't help but ask, "What happened to Guipin?"
Si Linglong lowered her head, and after a long while she managed to utter a sentence with a sigh, "I think I'm a bit of a show-off."
Sichuan red, blue-green:? ?
Si Linglong did not explain. After realizing that her behavior was inconsistent with her current identity, Si Linglong reflected on herself.
She now seems like an unreasonable love-minded troll who is full of sourness!
She had clearly said before that she no longer liked the other person, but after being teased by Helian Yue these days, she was obviously wavering again.
But once shaken, all kinds of hypocrisy begin to take hold.
Realizing this, Si Linglong decided to reflect on herself.
First of all, I have to take back the sour bubbles that are unconsciously coming out of my body.
Although they were going out for shopping, Si Linglong had no intention of going shopping at all.
The main reason is that the weather is cold and the streets are not very lively, not to mention that last time I happened to catch a big rally in Pingcheng. In comparison, this city seems much quieter.
Qinglu noticed that not only Si Linglong, but also Xue Sha and Xiao Li Sheng were not interested in such streets. This time, she was smarter and said, "There is a Baxianglou in front. It is said to be the largest restaurant here. Why don't we go there and try some delicious food?"
Speaking of food, Xue Sha and Xiao Li Sheng instantly perked up. Si Linglong also regained some interest and nodded, "Let's go there then."
Qinglu immediately ordered the guards outside to drive the carriage, and the carriage went to the Baxiang Tower as Qinglu mentioned.
Baxianglou is indeed the largest restaurant on Central Street. The exquisite three-story building alone exudes its grandeur, not to mention that you can already hear the hustle and bustle inside just by standing at the door.
Si Linglong led a group of people inside. Compared with the cold atmosphere outside, the building seemed unusually lively.
The interior is in a square design with a high platform in the middle. Musicians are playing on the platform, and guests sitting near the railings are drinking wine while enjoying the music and dance. The atmosphere is very pleasant.
Si Linglong hadn't been to such a place for a long time, and she felt very happy. The waiter in the building came to greet them as soon as they entered. Seeing that they were female guests, he didn't dare to look at them casually, but only asked, "Madam, do you want to eat in the hall or in a private room?"
"Let's go to the private room," Si Linglong said, but her eyes were attracted by the beautifully packaged snack boxes placed at the door, so she asked, "What are those?"
The waiter smiled and said, "To answer Madam, this is our Baxianglou's signature snack. Both the snack and the packaging are a major feature of our local area. Many foreign merchants who come here will take a few boxes home."
Si Linglong rarely saw such a bright "specialty product" and immediately became interested, "Then bring me a few boxes when you leave."
Si Linglong thought that there was no hope for Yuan Zun, and she might have to ask the Si family to help take in little Li Sheng after returning to Beijing. It would be better to buy some special products first, which would make it easier to bribe him later.
Thinking of this, he pointed out some of the prettier packaging designs and said, "I want all of these. Make a few extra so I can take them back for my brother."
When little Li Sheng heard her talking about his brother, the tips of his ears twitched slightly and he couldn't help but raise his head.
Suddenly, he seemed to smell a familiar scent. While Shuhong was still giving instructions to the waiter, he suddenly broke free from her hand, raised his legs and ran up to the second floor.
When Xueshan saw this, the chubby fur ball also started running upwards.
Si Linglong was dumbfounded.
This scene is so familiar!!
If she causes trouble again regarding the city closure, the Queen Mother will probably make her copy Buddhist scriptures for seven days and seven nights.
Shuhong and Qinglu's faces changed as well. They hurriedly picked up their skirts and chased after him, but they saw little Li Sheng running to the outside of a private room at the corner of the second floor, but stopped there.
Si Linglong walked over quickly, holding them down with one hand each, and admonished them, "Why are you running away for no reason?!"
Xue Sha looked at her innocently, and glanced at Xiao Li Sheng with his dark fox eyes, as if to say, I ran because she ran.
Little Li Sheng was a little scared after being yelled at by Si Linglong, but he still stared at the door of the box in front of him.
Si Linglong followed her gaze and looked at the box in front of her, frowning, "What's in here..."
Before he finished speaking, the door of the box in front of him suddenly creaked open from the inside.
