Chapter 378: Investigating the "Enemy Situation"
"I see, thank you, Miss Li!"
After hearing this, Li Yuqing waved her hand and said, "Don't thank me, I should wait for you, you are not familiar with life here, I can't leave you outside for myself, don't ask" and then said after a pause, "Okay, since you have come back, then I won't stay at home anymore, I stayed outside for a long time, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the village, so I won't accompany you."

As soon as Mo Xuan heard Li Yuqing say this, he hurriedly said, "Miss Li, it's not early now, do you still want to go outside at this point!"
After listening to this, Li Yuqing subconsciously looked up at the sky, and sighed after reading it, "It's not early, but it's still a long time before noon, although I can't go far during this time, but the near place can still turn around, anyway, I have nothing to do at home, and I'm idle, and I'm going to take a walk when I go out for a walk." β
Mo Xuan pouted unconsciously when he heard Li Yuqing say this, and said secretly in his heart, "Who said that you are idle at home, it would be good to accompany me more, and you don't want to think that I am leaving, and I don't know if I can see you again in the Year of the Monkey..."
Here Mo Xuan secretly muttered in his heart, and Li Yuqing over there thought that he had acquiesced when he saw that Mo Xuan didn't speak, so he waved his hand at him, and then raised his legs and walked outside without waiting for his answer.
However, Li Yuqing was discovered by Mo Xuan before he walked a few steps, Mo Xuan was very depressed when he saw Li Yuqing like this, and sighed helplessly, he originally wanted Li Yuqing to accompany him more, but there was no way Li Yuqing was too busy to take care of him, thinking of what Xue Zhonggui told him when he came, thinking that Li Yuqing was not at home when he went out anyway, and he had nothing to do if he stayed at home, so he gritted his teeth and looked at Li Yuqing's back and said, "Miss Li, since you want to go out, I have nothing to do at home, and I am idle anyway, so it is better to take this opportunity to go out and go around!"
Li Yuqing heard Mo Xuan say this, turned around and looked at Mo Xuan with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Do you want to come with me?"
Mo Xuan shook his head, "I'm not with you anymore, anyway, I didn't help you the first few times, but I caused you a lot of trouble, so in order not to disturb you, I still took Xiao Dezi with the wind and they groped around nearby!"
Li Yuqing frowned unconsciously when she heard Mo Xuan say this, and then asked, "Listen to what you said, then you have a place you want to go, if you want to go to a place and don't know the way, I can take you there, anyway, I can't finish my business for a while." β
Mo Xuan heard Li Yuqing say this, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I'll just go around the neighborhood and you're busy with yours!"
"Really, you're sure!"
Mo Xuan nodded hurriedly, for fear that Li Yuqing would go with them if he nodded late.
Mo Xuan just wanted to take advantage of the fact that he didn't go back to the capital to take a look in the town before he returned to the capital, to see how his third brother's shop was, if it was big, then he would definitely find an opportunity to "say good words" in front of his father after returning to the capital, so that Mo Xuan would pay some price for Li Yuqing's affairs.
Seeing Mo Xuan like this, Li Yuqing didn't say anything anymore, so she had to follow him, stood in the courtyard and waited for Mo Xuan to go back to the room to clean up a little, and then followed her out of the door.
After going out, the two of them went separately because they were going to different places, and Li Yuqing was going to send them to the entrance of the village before they were separated, but Mo Xuan wanted to go early and return early, so he didn't agree, and after saying goodbye to Li Yuqing, he had to follow his husband, drove the carriage with a whip, and left quickly.
In fact, the town is easy to find, that is, it doesn't take long to get out of the village and go up to the official road, so Suifeng doesn't need to ask who drove the carriage out of the village and went to the official road not long after.
Because it was not early at this time, I didn't meet anyone on the road, and I listened to Mo Xuan's words and drove the carriage quickly, so it was only half an hour before I arrived in the town.
Mo Xuan heard Xue Zhonggui say that Fumanlou was the largest restaurant in the town, so when he arrived in the town, he casually found someone and found it.
After finding it, of course, I had to go in and have a look, and it happened that it was time for lunch again, Mo Xuan thought that since he had come to inspect the enemy's situation, he would have to go deep into the tiger's den, so he walked in directly to prepare for dinner without doing anything.
Because the time for the guests to eat in the restaurant is a little early, and coming over at this time can be regarded as their meal, so there are a lot of people who come to eat in the Fuman Building, after Mo Xuan and the others entered, they waited for a while before they finally found a place to sit down, and as soon as they sat down here, a guy came over to greet him, while taking down the rag on his shoulder and wiping the table, while asking Mo Xuan what he wanted to eat, Mo Xuan actually didn't come to eat, in fact, he mainly came to explore the enemy, so he didn't bother to order and waved his hand directly to let the guy tell the people in the kitchen to pick up what they were good at, and the guy knew that Mo Xuan was a rich man as soon as he heard Mo Xuan say this, so, his attitude became better, nodded and said goodbye to Mo Xuan and the others, and then ran to the kitchen.
Since Fumanlou has been dealing with Li Yuqing, new dishes have been introduced from time to time, so there is an endless stream of people who come to try it every day, and the people who were just right in the kitchen before can no longer meet such a large flow of customers in the store, in order not to let the guests wait for a long time, Shopkeeper Yao has recruited a lot of new chefs, so Mo Xuan sat down and the dishes came up after a while.
After the dishes came up, Mo Xuan was dumbfounded when he looked at the dishes on the table, because he had basically seen those dishes on the table of Li Yuqing's house, but Li Yuqing was not a professional chef, so the dishes he made were not as good as them.
Mo Xuan unconsciously drooled when he thought of the taste of Li Yuqing's cooking, in order not to be discovered, Mo Xuan secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then silently picked up the chopsticks on the table, skillfully picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, put it in his mouth, and prepared to try it.
As a result, as soon as the ribs were put in his mouth and chewed, Mo Xuan spit it out, and after spitting it out, he made two "bah" sounds.
Seeing Mo Xuan like this, Xiao Dezi, who was sitting next to Mo Xuan, quickly picked up the kettle, took the cup, poured a glass of water for Mo Xuan, handed it to Mo Xuan, and asked with a concerned face, "Master, what's wrong with you." β
Mo Xuan took the water cup handed over by Xiao Dezi, drank a sip of water, and after rinsing his mouth, he looked at Xiao Dezi with a sad face and said, "It's really in vain, why is the same meal made so different from Miss Li's" As he spoke, looking at the people around him who were eating energetically, he said "tsk" twice, "Hey! A group of people who have never seen the world, such things are still eaten with such relish, and they don't eat the plate when they eat what Miss Li makes." β
Xiao Dezi heard Mo Xuan say this, and half-convinced, he picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs that Mo Xuan had just eaten, put it in his mouth with the determination to "force death", closed his eyes and chewed it, after singing the taste, Xiao Dezi couldn't help wrinkling, and then opened his eyes and looked at Mo Xuan and asked, "Master, the slave thinks this sweet and sour pork ribs are very delicious, although they are not as good as Miss Li's cooking, but they are not as unpalatable as you said." β
When Mo Xuan heard Xiao Dezi say this, his eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Xiao Dezi and said disgustingly, "Where is it not unpalatable, it is greasy and has a strange taste, Xiao Dezi is estimated to be the only one who said that it is delicious, tell me, is the reason why you say it is delicious is because your tongue is broken." β
Xiao Dezi just told the truth, but he didn't expect Mo Xuan's reaction to be so big, seeing Mo Xuan like this, Xiao Dezi didn't dare to say anything, so he could only make a small prayer for Mo Xuan to be let go with a bitter face.
Mo Xuan has never deliberately suppressed his words, and Xiao Dezi was said by Mo Xuan later because he said that the food was delicious, so all the eyes of the surrounding area were focused on Mo Xuan's body at this time, and even the guys who were standing around and ready to be summoned by the guests at any time also focused their eyes on Mo Xuan, and secretly said in their hearts, "Which one is this who is not long-eyed, and actually came here to find fault, it is really Tai Sui's head to break ground, and I don't want to mix." β
Of course, there are also flexible minds, and after noticing Mo Xuan, he immediately went to report to Shopkeeper Yao.
At this time, it is the end of the month, which is an important time for a large inventory once a month, and because the business in their store is too good, there are a lot of accounts to be calculated, so Shopkeeper Yao has been busy checking the accounts in the backyard recently, and he has no time to look at the front.
At this time, listening to the guy come to report, the first thought in the head of the shopkeeper Yao is that after so many years, he finally met someone who had the courage to smash the field, although the audit is very important now, but compared to the storefront, the storefront is still important, so the shopkeeper didn't say a word after hearing it, put down the pen in his hand, and ran to the front hall, he wanted to see which one of the short-sighted just came to his store to spread wild.
When he arrived in the front hall, the shopkeeper Yao did not act recklessly, and first stretched out his hand to beckon a nearby guy to learn about the situation from him, and the guy listened to his shopkeeper's question to him, and immediately said everything he knew he saw, and the shopkeeper Yao frowned subconsciously after listening to the guy, because he seemed to smell a trace of unusual taste from his buddy's words, that is, the person who said that the food in their store was not delicious, as if he had eaten the same food as in their store, and the food was better than what they made in the store.
Thinking of this, the first person who popped out of Shopkeeper Yao's head was Li Yuqing, because most of the menus in their store were asked Li Yuqing to ask or buy, and others didn't know at all.
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper Yao remembered that he forgot to ask the guy who the person was, and the guy immediately stretched out his hand, pointed to Mo Xuan and said to the shopkeeper Yao, "The shopkeeper, you see, is the one who sits in the corner, three people at a table, and the one who is dressed more gorgeously." β
The shopkeeper heard the guy say this, and looked in the direction that the guy pointed, because the distance was a little far, so he didn't immediately see Mo Xuan's appearance, but although he didn't see Mo Xuan's appearance clearly, but Yao shopkeeper still had a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu when he looked at Mo Xuan's vague appearance, seeing this, he squinted a few steps forward, because it was close, and Mo Xuan seemed to feel something, and suddenly turned to this side The shopkeeper Yao just saw Mo Xuan's appearance clearly, and after seeing Mo Xuan's appearance, Shopkeeper Yao was immediately stunned.
In fact, the reason why Mo Xuan suddenly looked sideways in the direction of the shopkeeper Yao was because he really felt something, it turned out that the people who were eating around him all looked at him because he said that the food was not delicious, and then they were all looking at him suddenly, how could this not make him suspicious? As a result, he looked sideways, and saw a middle-aged man walking towards him, Mo Xuan saw this smile on the corner of his mouth, because at this time, even if he didn't have to think about it, he knew who this person was.
Mo Xuan saw Shopkeeper Yao standing in the middle of the hall in a daze, smiled and didn't say anything, just retracted his gaze and sat quietly on the stool with Erlang's legs waiting for Shopkeeper Yao to come over.
It's not that Mo Xuan thinks that Shopkeeper Yao will know him, but Mo Xuan thinks that he has made such a big move, as the shopkeeper of this store, how could Shopkeeper Yao not come and ask.
Sure enough, Mo Xuan guessed correctly, he didn't wait long, the shopkeeper Yao who reacted walked straight and quickly, and after coming over, the shopkeeper Yao first bent down to Mo Xuan and gave a salute, and then he came to Mo Xuan's side and said, "Fifth prince, when did you come, why didn't you inform Xiao Xiao." β
Mo Xuan originally saw the shopkeeper coming over, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously smiled, but at this time, when he heard Shopkeeper Yao say this, his face stiffened, looked at Shopkeeper Yao, and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you, how do you know my identity." β
Shopkeeper Yao heard Mo Xuan ask this, and quickly explained, " The small is the subordinate of the three princes, when you just came out of the capital, the three princes flew the pigeon and passed the book to the small one about your affairs, saying that you have something to come here for a trip, so that the little one will treat you well after seeing you, the little one knows that the day after tomorrow is looking forward to the stars and the moon and looking forward to you coming soon, I didn't expect you to come out of the capital for more than three months now, the little one has waited for so long and has not seen you, and I thought that you went back after finishing your errands, but it happened that the little ones forgot about it and you came over again, where have you been for so long the five princesγ β
Mo Xuan listened to the shopkeeper's explanation, and snorted coldly, "The third brother is well-informed, and even knows that I am coming here, so how did he tell you, what did he say about me coming here." β
Shopkeeper Yao didn't answer immediately when he heard Mo Xuan say this, but straightened up and looked around, and saw that Mo Xuan was sitting around with guests eating, so he bent down in front of Mo Xuan and said, "The fifth prince has a lot of people here, or you go to the backyard with the little one, there is a room to talk alone, where we are talking and what are we doing, we are not afraid of being heard by others." β
Mo Xuan heard what Shopkeeper Yao said, although he was very reluctant to go to the backyard with him, but when he thought of this, it was indeed very inconvenient for them to talk, if what they said was accidentally heard by someone with bad intentions and knew his identity, he was afraid that it would cause some unnecessary trouble, so he raised his eyes, glanced at Shopkeeper Yao, and then snorted coldly, stood up and walked towards the backyard.
Shopkeeper Yao was overjoyed when he saw Mo Xuan's agreement, and hurriedly ran after him.
When everyone arrived in the backyard, Shopkeeper Yao was afraid that Mo Xuan would have a dry mouth when he could talk, so when he went to the backyard, he called a guy by the way and asked him to send a pot of tea first, and several of them went into the room to sit down, and no one spoke after sitting down, but after the guy sent the tea, the shopkeeper Yao asked the guy who sent the tea to go out, and asked him to bring the door by the way when he went out.
