223 buffets
Mama Fang looked at Fu Zhu for a moment and nodded. www.biquge.info"There are still more than ten days, and it's almost the same." ”
Sandalwood is relieved to change back to the dust to eat.
She hadn't been with Miss Three much these days. Just wait for the second master Zhu to successfully pass under the name of the old lady, and then return the housekeeper's affairs to the bell and Mama Fang.
Sandalwood guarded less than a stick of incense outside, and listened to the coachman and handyman of the Yuge come out with his stomach in his hand.
A bearded man wiped the grease stains from his mouth with his sleeve, and said unsatisfactorily: "Girl, how much silver will you have to pay to enter this restaurant in the future?" ”
Sandalwood smiled: "Don't hide it from the big brothers, our Puju has not officially opened yet, and we have to wait until the fifth day of the third month to eat." After the opening, the buffet in the living room on the first floor is counted per person, and one person is half a silver hanging. ”
The bearded man touched his head in a daze, "What is a buffet?" ”
"It's the guests who enter the living room on the first floor, and the meals and snacks in it are eaten at will, until they have enough to eat. Just like what you big brothers just ate, noodles, meals, porridge, buns, and dim sum are available, and we will add more varieties in the future, such as serving fruits. In short, I entered the store with half a hanging money, so that you can eat and stand out. There is only one piece, and the food in the store cannot be taken away. ”
Hearing this, the beard shook his head again and again, "That's five hundred yuan, it's expensive." ”
Sandalwood didn't explain much, and said calmly: "It's okay, Pu Ju opened the door to do business, and it was about your love and my willingness to make money in harmony." When do you want to eat, come back. ”
The bearded and the party got into the carriage and whipped their horses and left. Puju's food was delicious, but it was not something that they could afford to eat. But anyway, today is a white meal, and it's worth it.
Princess Zhan is an understanding person and knows the intention of Fu Yanwu's hard work. This costly lunch is not only to thank her for taking care of Mrs. Feng all the way, but also to give her reopened Puju a word of mouth by the way. From the bottom of her heart, she is willing to help Pu Ju blow this wind.
After Princess Zhan took Xiao Shizi home, she was tired of traveling and full of wine and food, and rested early that day.
The next day, they were busy entering the palace and sent the Tuyi brought from Wuzhou to the Queen Mother and the princesses. Because the Queen Mother did not pass her to see her, the painting "Under the South Mountain" was temporarily put on hold.
Then I visited everywhere, and many of the people who handed over blessing stickers and gifts for the New Year needed to return the gift. Princess Zhan took this opportunity to hype up the news of the imminent reopening of Puju, and praised Puju as unique, which can be described as a good thing.
The results are immediate. Within a few days, the big families in the capital got the letter, and Puju served a "buffet" for a limited time at noon and the next day.
The subordinates who had previously traveled with the convoy also had their own connections. The people in charge of purchasing, the stewards of various prefectures, and the cooks also discussed in private, and they all heard that Puju tasted good and the price was high.
Someone quietly calculates in his heart, five hundred yuan for a person is not cheap, but compared to a few dozen taels of a dish before, it is definitely a world of difference. Many people hid half of the money and waited for the fifth day of the third month to try it.
Princess Zhan's hard work and praise, coupled with word of mouth among the subordinates, suddenly came like a night of spring breeze, and the Luojing people learned a new word - "buffet".
After running for six or seven days in a row, Princess Zhan was finally tired and out of breath. There is no escape, she will eventually have to face Prince Zhan, face his husband, and face her long days ahead.
Since returning to Beijing, she and Prince Zhan have not met in the next few days, except for the jade pendant randomly picked up by the Wuzhou jade shop on the first day. She went out early and returned late, and Prince Zhan seemed to be in a hurry, not knowing what he was busy with.
A few days ago, I didn't feel that Princess Zhan couldn't help but feel sour in her heart after this leisure, and she and the prince seemed to be strangers. She looked at the glass lamp hanging high in the middle of the top pavilion in the flower hall in a daze, and hesitated whether she should talk to the prince.
Sadly, Fu Jin walked in with a bunch of things.
"The princess can be regarded as able to take a rest, since you came back, the concubine has come to say hello several times, and you have gone out."
Princess Zhan smiled sadly, Concubine Jin knew that she came to ask her, but the prince couldn't see anyone.
Fu Jin noticed that Princess Zhan's interest was not too high, so he didn't say anything more, and said straightforwardly: "Princess, look at these keys, pairs of cards and account books, but are there any mistakes?" The first time I was a steward, many things must have been less thorough than the princess's. ”
Princess Zhan looked at the pile of cold things on the coffee table and felt tired. "You are in good hands, I have been sick in Wuzhou for a while, and now I have not recovered. You can take care of this backyard for a few more days. ”
Fu Jin was quite surprised, but he didn't shirk it, and blessed himself and said, "The concubine obeys the order." ”
There was silence in the hall for a while, and a few kingfishers chirped outside the window. Princess Zhan walked to the window and saw that the kingfisher was bouncing on a plum tree, very happy.
Fu Jin saw that she was silent, and felt that she had nothing to say. Just as he was about to withdraw, he suddenly heard Princess Zhan ask, "What has the prince been busy with lately?" ”
Fu Jin replied in a low voice: "The concubine doesn't know. The prince never mentioned anything outside. ”
Princess Zhan suddenly raised her hand, "Forget it." ”
Fu Jin didn't know if he had heard it wrong, forget it, forget it. The princess turned her back to her, and she couldn't see the look on her face clearly, but listening to her voice, she was weak and weak, with a deep resentment.
Fu Jin lowered his head, what is wrong with the princess. She thought of the newly moved in Miss Yu Jiaqi, and asked casually: "Princess, Miss Wanying has been asking me about the Shangsi Festival in Beijing for the past few days, and I don't know ......."
Fu Jin wanted to speak and stopped, but Princess Zhan knew what she wanted to ask. The third day of March is Dafeng's Daughter's Festival, which is more comfortable than the Lantern Festival. The grandchildren of the king of Luojing, the city is full of fun, and they go to the suburbs together. Young men and women can abandon the confinement of Confucianism and Taoism on this day, and if they meet the person they like, they can send the picked flowers to find out each other's hearts.
Yu Wanying is still related to the Meng family, and it is estimated that she will travel with the Meng family's young lady that day. This is also the main purpose of Yu Wanying's entry into Beijing.
To be honest, Yu Wanying followed her back to Beijing this time, and she didn't expect it. Originally, she was going to come back first, personally asked the Queen Mother what she meant, and then sent someone to Wuzhou to pick up Yu Wanying, but she didn't expect the Queen Mother's letter to reply so quickly, and ordered her to come back with Yu Wanying. Presumably, it was the Yu family who wrote a letter to the Queen Mother. The life of this daughter of the Yu family, the Queen Mother estimates that she has her own plans.
"It's okay, what she asks and tells her is it, it's just that Luo Jing's high-ranking family ......"
Princess Zhan only said half of what she said, but Fu Jin understood it and respectfully retreated. She has confirmed that this seventh lady came to the capital to find a husband, as long as it is not Prince Zhan, everything else is easy to say. (To be continued.) )
