Chapter 339: Acquaintances Meet
"Miss, what are you doing hoarding food, you won't be in the grain business, right?" When Lin Yu saw the steward, Pearl was a little surprised and asked, "I don't think the grain business is very good." β
"I know, but this batch of grain is not for sale." Lin Yu nodded and said, it is still a fair price to buy now, even if she really does the grain business in the future, she will not be a profiteer in this regard.
The price of those meals in the restaurant is okay to set higher, anyway, the people who can come to the restaurant to eat are rich people, the more expensive they are, the more they feel that they show their identity, in case of war, Lin Yu can't do that kind of thing if he sells the hoarded grain at a high price. However, she didn't think about whether to store this batch of grain for the famine year and war or for other purposes, so she only made some preparations first.
"Don't mention this, I'm going to go out later, you go and bring my pearl-red brocade cloak, it's windy today, so I'm not allowed to wear it." Lin Yu flipped through the account book sent by the steward, and instructed, "Go find Narcissus again, let her go and order someone to set up the car, and call the two little girls to go out together, I won't come back at noon today, and I will go to the old mansion again." β
Pearl took the order, and after a while, everything was done.
"It's not very early at this point, is lunch going to our restaurant or going somewhere else?" Pearl helped Lin Yu into the carriage and asked, "If you go to our business to see, I'm afraid you will have to take a detour." β
Lin Yu originally planned not to look for a random place, thinking that so many things had happened recently, and he had indeed not gone over to see his business for a while. Although the business of the restaurant is not the bulk of its annual income, it can be opened except for the grange. This business alone belongs only to himself, and there is a little bit of hope in his previous life, so he can't be too careless.
"Let's go over there. It's cold, eat something hot and go elsewhere. β
The business of the restaurant is still very normal, it is still very hot, and the shopkeeper keeps asking Lin Yu when he will be able to open a branch, and the customers have chased and said hello many times.
The building of the branch has basically been completed, and the rest is the decoration, Lin Yu was a little hesitant. After all, if there is a war, the consumption power will definitely decline, and it seems that some of them are not the right time. But business is also a bit overloaded.
During the meal, Lin Yu had never made up her mind, but now she didn't have the time to think about it carefully, compared to things like opening a branch in a restaurant. More important things seem to be more. Think of everything that is about to happen. Even if it is not directly related to her, it makes people feel a little heavy.
"Your Highness the Seven?" Lin Yu was going down the stairs when he heard Pearl suddenly cover her mouth and exclaim in a low voice.
Yu Wenyi? Lin Yu looked up in a little surprise, sure enough, it was Yu Wenyi, who had not been seen for a long time, dressed noblely, and looked very arrogant. He was followed by a beautiful and lovely girl, who was also Lin Yu's acquaintance, the tenth princess. One step behind these two. There is also a young and beautiful woman with a woman's hair, not Yu Wenyi's concubine Liu. I don't know if Lu Dao is one of his side concubines or the new love of the concubine.
However, it was still unexpected for Lin Yu to meet Yu Wenyi here, but since he met, because of the identity of the other party, he couldn't pretend not to see it at all. Lin Yu personally asked someone to arrange a first-class private room for the three of them, and arranged a top-level banquet.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and I've seen His Royal Highness the Tenth Princess."
The tenth princess is a girl who loves Jiaojiao, and there has been no change in the past year, when she saw Lin Yu at this time, she smiled very affectionately, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you are engaged?" The other party is still a beautiful boy who is unparalleled in the world? Is it true or fake? β
Lin Yu looked at Yu Wenyi, whose face sank all of a sudden, and felt a little helpless in his heart, this tenth princess is too bad at looking at her face. Even if Yu Wenyi doesn't have a good impression of himself now, it's like boasting about his current goodness in front of someone else's ex-boyfriend, and that ex-boyfriend won't be too comfortable anyway.
"The princess is falsely praised, but she is just a commoner." Lin Yu smiled and said, "The appearance is not bad, but it is not so good." β
The tenth princess still chattered, "You are so modest, I heard from the eighth sister that your fiancΓ© is very good-looking." Sister Pomegranate also said that if she hadn't been engaged to you, she would have snatched it up and be her own county horse......"
"Yuexian, you're talking a little too much!"
This is a public place, even if it is in the box, you have to guard against the wall and ears, seeing that this sister is talking more and more, Yu Wenyi can't help but stop her, and then looks at Lin Yu, nodded, and said a little arrogantly, "The tenth princess has always spoken without intention, don't you mind." β
How dare I, no matter how I say it, she is also a decent princess, and this one has no malice, just doesn't have much scheming, Lin Yu slandered in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, "The tenth princess is innocent and cute, how can anyone not like it?" β
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu found that Yu Wenyi's eyes seemed to flash with a disappointed light, and the tenth princess was praised by Lin Yu twice, but her face was full of smiles, and she still looked like a little girl.
Sure enough, Yu Wenyi looked at Lin Yu and said lightly, "The you I met before are not such a sleek and secular woman. β
"When His Highness the Seventh said this, I was a little flattered." Lin Yu clearly saw that the beautiful woman behind him, her face became ugly, and she was helpless and helpless, "But how much does Your Highness know me?" β
It is very likely that the feelings generated under the crisis are just because people instinctively hope for companions in difficult situations, and in that case, Lin Yu's character is actually not her usual character. She is the one who will become strong at a critical time, which does not mean that she is also a strong person on weekdays.
Lin Yu has always thought that most of the self in Yu Wenyi's mind comes from brain supplements, and he just adds the character he likes to the person named Lin Yu in his mind, but it doesn't mean that she is really like that. At least Lin Yu's usual personality is not strong at all, it is gentle and forbearant to say that it sounds good, and it is simply gentle to say that it is unpleasant. Or Yu Wenyi himself is not unaware of this, but who wants to break the beautiful dream in his heart, it is still a dream that can no longer be realized.
She looked at the man opposite with such a smile and firmness, Yu Wenyi was also a little helpless, sighed softly, and changed the topic, "That person, how is it?" β
Yu Wenyi didn't say who it was, but both of them knew who Lu Dao was referring to, thinking of the person who said goodbye to him this morning, Yin Susu curled the corners of his lips slightly, "Although he is a civilian, he is still a very good person, he has a good personality and a rich family, I am already very satisfied." β
"How low are your requirements?" Yu Wenyi's mood was very conflicted, looking at Lin Yu's smile, he felt a faint pain in his heart, and on the other hand, he felt that seeing her smile like this, he felt that he was also quieter in his heart.
Lin Yu smiled and didn't speak, looking at her warm eyes, Yu Wenyi opened his mouth and said softly, "If ββ, forget it." β
"In that case, I won't disturb the meal." Lin Yu could see his tangled mood, but Yu Wenyi was already married after all, and he had a wife and concubine, so it was impossible for him to have any entanglements with such a married man anyway. "Today's meal, let me do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord."
The tenth princess had already eaten a bunch of things at this time, and when she saw that Lin Yu was leaving, she hurriedly interjected, "Speaking of which, I don't know how beautiful your fiancΓ© is, but just now I saw a man who is so beautiful, his eyes seem to have an affectionate taste, and he is different from everyone else like the prince's brother......"
"Yuexian, you're already engaged!" Yu Wenyi had just come back to his senses from the past with Lin Yu, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he heard the girl commenting on the man.
The tenth princess is indeed engaged, and when the war is about to begin, it is also very common to use marriage to firmly win over the generals under him. During this time, the seven princes aside, two other princes and three princes married concubines, and two princesses and four county lords were married one after another.
The tenth princess Yuwen Yuexian didn't seem to be very satisfied with the marriage, and she was also a little rebellious against her brother's accusations, she pouted and said, "Just allow my fiancΓ© to be a playboy outside, and I can't even comment on a few good-looking men?" I'm a princess, I'm already very aggrieved to marry someone like that, forget about what happened before marriage, this princess is not to blame in the past, he has already pointed out that he still ran to the Qinglou, isn't it slapping me in the face! β
"How can men and women be the same!" Yu Wenyi is still a typical sand pig man under the poison of feudalism, and he can't help but fight with the ten princesses.
Although Lin Yu frowned when he listened, he didn't say anything, and left quietly, leaving the space to the pair of brothers and sisters who were quarreling. She still has a lot of things to do today, and she has no time or interest in getting involved in the affairs between them.
However, the words of the tenth princess Yuwen Yuexian gave her some ideas, a handsome man with affectionate eyes like the sea? It's hard not to think of a Zhang family spy she once met. However, after asking the shopkeeper, I found that there was indeed such a person, but after the bill had already been settled and left, Lin Yu didn't care too much, there were not too many men with peach blossom eyes. And the other party has been gone for a quarter of an hour, and it is impossible for him and the people around him to track down that person.
At this time, in a private house, listening to Xiaoba's complaints, the handsome man with a pair of deep and affectionate oceans sighed softly, "This matter, I am indeed a little reckless, after all, it is in the capital, or be careful in everything." β
Because of some willingness, he is far more wild and wanton than the average son of a family, this time when he came to the capital, he heard about the good food in the Lin family restaurant, so he wanted to try it. Although he has changed his appearance, although his eyes bring him infinite charm, they also make him stand out. If he really met Lin Yu, he was not sure that he would not be recognized, if he was recognized, with the relationship between Lin Yu and Yin Susu, this matter could not be concealed at all.
"Xiaoba, you go and contact Zhang Er, just say I'm here." Zhang Bailong hesitated for a moment, but decided to be cautious, so as not to regenerate branches. (To be continued......)
