Jun Zechen's gaze fell on Su Jingyao, with complex emotions intertwined in his eyes.
He had to admit that the Su family's teaching of Su Jingyao was extremely successful.
She is like a blooming flower, beautiful and elegant. Her every move and gesture shows the demeanor of a lady from a noble family, and her etiquette is impeccable.
She is open-minded and can tolerate everything, allowing her to be happy in any environment. Even when she came to the East Palace and was suppressed and despised by him, she was very strong.
Her free and easy attitude is not just superficial ease, but comes from her rich and fulfilling spiritual world.
Although Su Jingyao's daily life is luxurious, she can empathize with the suffering of the lower-class people. Her kindness and compassion can be seen from the fact that she has been donating money to the people since she was a child.
Jun Zechen knew all this because he had sent people to investigate Su Jingyao ever since he knew he was going to marry her.
As soon as the carriage drove out of the palace gate, Ling Yue couldn't wait to reach out and lift the curtain.
Then she leaned her head out of the car, closed her eyes, took a deep breath of the outside air, and showed an expression of enjoyment on her face, fully feeling the hard-earned breath of freedom.
Su Jingyao always sat there upright, with an elegant posture and a straight back.
Her expression was as calm as water, her eyes were clear and indifferent. She seemed to care nothing about the scenery outside and did not show the slightest interest.
She just sat there quietly, like a beautiful statue.
For Su Jingyao, the outside of the palace really had no appeal to her. She had traveled almost all over the capital with her brother since she was a child. On the contrary, life in the palace was much more exciting to her.
Jun Zechen was also used to Ling Yue's lively temper after leaving the palace. He looked at her gently and shook his head slightly.
As time passed, the carriage soon stopped in front of Zuixiao Tower.
The owner of Zuixiaolou had been waiting at the door for a long time, looking into the distance from time to time, looking a little anxious.
When he saw Jun Zechen leading two beautiful women out of the carriage, his eyes widened and he stared at them intently.
Especially when he saw the woman in the green dress, he was stunned.
He had been in Zuixiaolou for more than ten years and had seen all kinds of beauties in the capital, but this lady's appearance still made him feel extremely stunning. That kind of beauty could not be described in words.
The noble man in front of him is so lucky, both of his wives are so beautiful.
He hurried forward and in a few steps he was in front of Jun Zechen and the others. He bowed slightly and said respectfully, "My lord, I will take you to the top-level box you reserved."
"Lead the way." Jun Zechen said lightly.
"yes."
The shopkeeper responded, then turned around and led the way, his steps seeming a little hurried.
Although he didn't know the identity of the distinguished guest, the owner of Zuixiaolou repeatedly instructed him to serve this distinguished guest well tonight.
The shopkeeper naturally did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Zuixiaolou is extremely lively today, almost full, and every table of guests has reserved a seat early.
Even ordinary customers who can come to Zuixiaolou to spend money have a certain status or huge assets.
They looked at him curiously, as they had never seen anyone who could be greeted so respectfully by the owner of Zuixiaolou.
A series of vague and scrutinizing gazes, like fine silk threads, were intertwined on them.
Jun Zechen was already accustomed to these gazes. He followed the shopkeeper without looking around, with firm and calm steps, all the way to the No. 1 box.
In the private room, a sumptuous feast of wine and dishes had already been prepared.
After Su Jingyao and the others were seated, the shopkeeper said with a broad smile, "Sir, these dishes were all ordered in advance by you. If you need anything else, please call me anytime. I will be leaving now."
These carefully prepared dishes were naturally arranged by Anshun.
Jun Zechen waved his hand gently, and the shopkeeper and his staff retreated respectfully, leaving only the three of them, as well as Anshun, Miaoyun and other maids.
Su Jingyao looked at the dishes in front of her and raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that Jun Zechen still remembered her preferences.
There were many flower dishes and some beauty-enhancing soups on the table.
Ling Yue looked at the meals with a hint of confusion on her face.
"Aze, why did you order so many fancy dishes? Don't you dislike these light and sweet foods?"
"Today is the Flower Festival. These flower dishes have been improved. They are not too sweet, but fresh and delicious. Yue'er can try them."
Jun Zechen naturally didn't want to say that he ordered it just for Su Jingyao, for fear that Ling Yue would misunderstand.
He was worried that Su Jingyao would not be used to eating out, so he asked Miaoyue for the recipe for the flower meal in advance, and then asked the chef of Zuixiaolou to prepare it carefully and present it.
Su Jingyao naturally understood that these fancy meals were obviously prepared by Jun Zechen specially for her. Her watery eyes secretly looked at Jun Zechen, and happened to meet Jun Zechen's gaze.
She suddenly looked away in panic, a blush spreading across her face, as gorgeous as the clouds in the sky.
Jun Zechen's eyes instantly became somewhat profound. Looking at her little daughter's expression, he recalled her delicate and tender face with a blushing face on the bed.
Ling Yue was completely unaware of the subtle atmosphere between the two and was immersed in enjoying the flower meal.
She chewed it slowly and praised it.
"Aze, this flower meal is indeed as delicious as you said. But I still prefer those meat dishes, they taste better!"
After saying that, she started to enjoy the food without caring whether Jun Zechen had already picked up his chopsticks, savoring the satisfaction brought by the big fish and meat. In the past, when she was in the frontier, she liked to drink fine wine with various meat dishes, which was wonderful.
Outside the palace, Ling Yue seemed extremely casual in her words and actions. While she was eating, she did not forget to pick up some food for Jun Zechen, with a happy smile on her face.
Jun Zechen was already accustomed to her affectionate actions and just smiled and let her go.
At the same time, Su Jingyao savored the flower meal slowly and leisurely, and every subtle movement revealed a noble temperament.
She would not touch any of those foods that were high in oil and salt. She just focused on the flower dishes and some beauty-enhancing soups in front of her, savoring their beauty.
After the meal, the lights outside the restaurant were brightly lit, just like daytime.
Lanterns were hung high on both sides of the street, lighting up the entire street.
The bustling streets were crowded with people, men and women were all wearing brand new clothes, their faces filled with joyful smiles.
They strolled in groups of three or five on the streets, stopped to admire the lanterns, or picked out their favorite items in front of the stalls. It was a very lively scene.
