Sitting on the rickety carriage, Gu Qingwan looked at Qin Yu lying on the soft couch opposite, and said with a suspicious expression, "Didn't the imperial doctor say before that your heart and veins are damaged, and your internal injuries need to be slowly recuperated, and you need bed rest?" ”

The imperial doctor's diagnosis was still in his ears, but Gu Qingwan felt that Qin Yu had never complied with it, and in the past few days in the Hanmo Academy, he also did what he wanted, and he didn't follow the doctor's instructions, so he lay on the bed and honestly recuperated.

And although his face was much paler than usual, he didn't look like he was seriously injured, and yesterday in the study, when he forced her to forgive him, he held her with a lot of strength, strong and like a cow, where he looked like a patient. This made Gu Qingwan suspicious that Qin Yu was seriously injured by Wu Guogong in Prince Yi's mansion that day.

Qin Yu was lying on his back on the soft couch, and when he saw Gu Qingwan's face was probing and speculating, he was not nervous, he only glanced at her with his eyes, and said: "It's really the most poisonous woman's heart, the lord is here to save you, and you still think that the lord is not sick enough now?" You have to lie in bed and can't get off, are you willing? ”

As he spoke, he seemed to be breathed out of breath, and the wound was moved, and suddenly he coughed again with his heart covered, and his face flushed sickly, and a layer of fine and dense sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

In the past two days, he did have to cough twice from time to time, Gu Qing saw him like this, so he hurriedly got up and leaned over, raised his hand to Qin Yu to calm his breath, and took a fine cotton handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his face.

Tentacles, although Qin Yu's handsome face was sweaty, but it was cold, and it was clear that it was all sweating, seeing Qin Yu sneering, a pair of different-colored eyes were staring at him mockingly, Gu Qingwan felt a little weak-hearted, and felt that he really shouldn't suspect others, so he blinked, and said: "Since Your Highness is so uncomfortable, you should stay in the palace to live and raise." Why do you have to follow me out, I just go to see Sister Xinying, and don't do anything else. If you are not at ease, Your Highness, send more people to follow me, and you can follow me in person. ”

Qin Yu sneered when he heard this, and said, "You go and ask, why has the master stayed in the mansion for more than two days?" It's all suffocating! Ye is just going out of the house to relax, why did he have to follow you? However, if you are so nervous, it can't be that you have something to hide from your master, and you want to do something bad, right? ”

As Qin Yu spoke, his eyes narrowed, and there was a sharp light in his eyes, staring closely at Gu Qingwan's face, who was close at hand.

Gu Qingwan's heart was beating wildly when he stared at her, Lou Minning had said before that as soon as Zhou Rui's matter was over, he would contact her and send her and Zhuang Yuexian out of the capital. At that time, Lou Minning did not elaborate on how to contact her and how to avoid Qin Yu's eyes and ears.

The post she just received was indeed Chen Xinying's handwriting, but Zhou Rui's case was just concluded yesterday, and today she received a post from Chen Xinying inviting her to tea.

She was naturally afraid that Qin Yu would notice something, or delay her business.

Her heart was weak, and she was stared at by Qin Yu at the moment, so her mouth was a little dry, and she resisted the urge to lick her lips, so she reluctantly said casually: "Your Highness is thinking too much, what bad things can I do?" It's just that Sister Xinying doesn't know that I am Shen Qing's business, and I don't know the involvement between me and His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is following now, and after a while, Sister Xinying will see it, and I don't know how to explain it to her. ”

When Qin Yu heard this, he looked sneering, pinched Gu Qingwan's chin, making her unable to struggle, and raised her eyebrows: "Heh, you are suspicious of following you, and you can't be the one who loses you?" When did this king become unsightly? ”

Gu Qing saw his dissatisfaction at night, and she sneered in her heart, should she still take him around to swagger, and publicize that she would lose her reputation if she didn't leave the cabinet?

It's only these days that she has also understood that Qin Yu, like herself, eats soft rather than hard. In the past, she could eat soft and not hard, it was pampered by her family, but now that it has fallen into the hands of Qin Yu, she can only suffer a greater loss if she does not change her patience.

Therefore, Gu Qing's evening eyes were shining with disgust, and he said with some grievances: "Your Highness's dignified county king, naturally you won't be unpopular, but I'm not Your Highness's person yet, Qingyu is like a door curtain, when it can be hung, people still want to hang it!" ”

Qin Yu saw that her eyes were shining, with anger and coquettishness, with a little resentment between her eyebrows, a little cunning, a little banter, and extremely smart, and she didn't feel that she was staring at her physically and mentally, so she didn't have the heart to explore anything anymore, she couldn't help but grab Gu Qingwan's hand, took her hard, hugged her in her arms, and said with a smile: "Dare to love Qingqing also knows that she has no reputation for a long time?" Qingqing is a Gu family from a scholarly family, and must know a lot about female virtue and virginity, this woman is chaste from the beginning to the end, and Qingqing's reputation is ruined in the hands of this king, so naturally she should follow this king from the beginning, huh? ”

As he spoke, he rubbed Gu Qingwan's softness, leaned over and pressed down his handsome face, obviously wanting to kiss her again, Gu Qingwan had a little headache.

This guy, you give him a good face, he is so inch-inch, cold face to him, he wants to use force on you, this is not right, that is not, she really doesn't know how to get along with him.

Seeing that Qin Yu's lips had been suppressed, Gu Qingwan hurriedly turned his face away and pushed him, Qin Yu's lips were against the corner of her lips on her cheeks, Gu Qingwan shrank her neck and said, "In the carriage, don't make trouble!" ”

There were all kinds of sounds of passers-by bustling outside, and the windows of the carriage were hung with curtains made of Xiangfei bamboo because it was summer, and the carriage swayed, and the curtains would inevitably float, and it was difficult to ensure that people outside would not see the scene inside.

Qin Yu lowered his head, and saw that Gu Qingwan's face was dyed red, his long eyelashes kept blinking, and the appearance of refusal was not as cold as usual, but like a girl's struggle due to shyness, he was in a happy mood for a while, chuckled twice, and said in Gu Qingwan's ear: "Nephrite is warm and fragrant, you are reluctant to let you go like this, but Qingqing is thin-skinned, let you let go of you, just return to Linghan Courtyard for a while, how can Qingqing compensate you?" ”

Gu Qingwan was provoked by Qin Yu's appearance as a scoundrel

He leaned on the soft couch and hugged her tightly, his handsome face was against her neck, his ears and temples were grinding, and there were people coming and going by the carriage, and sometimes he could hear the clear voice of the person who came closer.

Gu Qingwan felt embarrassed and nervous that she would be seen at any time, and I don't know if it was because of this, she was a little flustered, her face was flushed, and she couldn't help nodding her head indiscriminately, and said: "You let go quickly, what do you want to do when you go back, I can't stop it, what compensation does it say, what's the point!" ”

There was a helpless compromise in her grievances, Qin Yu laughed twice, and pecked her on the side of the neck twice, and then let go of Gu Qingwan.

Gu Qingwan hurriedly stood up and sat aside. The two of them talked without a pair, and after a while, the carriage stopped, but they arrived at the downstairs of Xianyue.

Song Ning had already asked people to come over in advance to book a private room, and after getting out of the carriage, Gu Qingwan followed Qin Yu directly into the Yangliu Pavilion on the second floor.

This Yangliu Pavilion is the last time Gu Qingwan accidentally broke in and crashed directly into the private room in Qin Yu's arms. Last time it was a mess, Gu Qing didn't pay attention to the layout in the private room, and today she revisited the old place, but when she looked closely, she saw that this private room was huge, and the decoration was luxurious but elegant, as if it was a few grades higher than the private room that Xiao Er took her into the restaurant last time.

After taking a seat, Gu Qing glanced around, thinking of the last time in Xianyue Tower, but used three or two dishes, it cost twenty taels of silver, although the food is really good, but more than twenty taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to eat for three or five months, it can be seen that the profits of this ancient restaurant are so high, it is simply a mouth-watering Cheng dù.

She had been planning to join Chen Xinying's family's business, and the Chen family was still looking for shops everywhere, although she had already made up her mind to leave the capital, but she couldn't just leave the Chen family alone, after all, she had already agreed with someone.

Now seeing that the business of this restaurant is so good, Gu Qingwan inevitably blushes a little, and can't help but ask Qin Yu, and said: "This private room is much better than the Peony Pavilion I went to last time, it can be seen that the private room of this Xianyue Building is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, but I don't know how to calculate the general account when entering the different private rooms, and when the final checkout?" ”

Qin Yu came out to eat, where did he take care of these trivial matters, but was stunned by Gu Qing's late question, and said: "What do you care about this, this Xianyue Building is the marriage of Chen Yongyan's mother, Princess Chen Jun, the lord comes here to eat, and he has always kept accounts, every month, the shopkeeper of the restaurant will send someone to the palace account room to settle, every time the master comes to eat, it is this Yangliu Pavilion, as for whether there are three, six, nine, etc., and how to keep accounts, where do you know." ”

When Gu Qing heard this, he said in his heart that this was really born with a golden spoon, and he didn't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt were expensive, so he called Qin Yu to call Xiao Er to come in and ask carefully.

Qin Yu saw that she was really interested, although he didn't know what she was doing with this, but he wouldn't even be satisfied with this little idea, so he ordered Song Ning, not wanting Song Ning to go out and bring the shopkeeper of Xianyue Tower in.

The shopkeeper respectfully gave Qin Yu a big salute, Qin Yu waved his hand and said, "Okay, get up and talk back." ”

After he said that, he said to Gu Qingwan again: "Everyone has called you, you can ask him if you have anything." ”

Gu Qing smiled appreciatively at Qin Yu, and then asked about the shopkeeper's private room.

The shopkeeper said: "Our Xianyue Lou's private room is indeed divided into four levels, the layout and utensils used are different, usually in the lobby on the first floor of the meal, it is only counted as the silver taels used for the meal, this private room, divided into A, B, C, D, and fourth, when settling the bill, the cost of the private room should be calculated, 50 taels of the first class, 30 taels of the second class, 20 taels of the C class, and 10 taels of the D class. ”

Sure enough, it is a private room fee, and the cost of this private room is really not ordinarily expensive, Gu Qingwan said unconsciously when she heard this: "Then the restaurant and teahouse next to our capital, if you ask for a private room, are they all counted like this?" ”

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Not really, some restaurants and teahouses are cold, and when they are busy, the guests are dissatisfied, where can they charge any private room fees." That is, our Xianyue Building, the location is good, the scenery is good, the dishes are good, the private room is cleaned up and exquisite, there is an endless stream of people who come to eat every day, and the guests are full, especially the first-class private rooms of A, B and C, if you don't say hello two days in advance, you can't be empty at all. That's how much money can be charged for private rooms. ”

Gu Qingwan could understand when he heard this, there are many rich people in a place like the capital. As long as you can do outstanding and become the leader of the industry, you are not afraid that those powerful people will not spend money.

Especially now that the new dynasty has just been established, the magnates have been fighting horses for half their lives, and now they have power and wealth in their hands, so they are arrogant and lascivious. In ancient times, it was men who came out to walk, and it was better to open a restaurant than a fat powder shop, a clothing and jewelry shop, etc., and the business of making women's money was much more prosperous.

It depends on whether you have the ability to get a piece of the pie, take care of Qing Wan, this Xianyue Tower is also mediocre everywhere.

Restaurant this kind of place, what you want is a pomp, food is an environment, she has a good ability to build a pavilion, if you can build a unique and innovative, brilliant restaurant, and then two signature dishes, it may not be able to make money every day.

Gu Qingwan was thinking about it, when Xiao Er knocked on the door and brought the prepared meal, before he could finish it, he heard a shout from Qingyue in the porch.

"The second brother came to Xianyue Tower for dinner, why didn't he call the brothers!"

While speaking, a thin young man wearing a bright purple robe and a white jade crown took the lead in entering the private room, it was Chen Yongyan.

Followed by three more noble sons in brocade robes, but they were Shen Ze, Guo Dong and Li Dongzhe, Shen Xue shook the fan in his hand, nodded on Chen Yongyan's shoulder in front of him, and said: "I didn't see the second brother with people around him, the second brother is now a pair when he goes out, and he is a pair when he enters, what a carefree thing, where can he still think of our brothers." ”

"Second brother, you're not right, the brothers saw that you were injured from Prince Yi's mansion and carried back to the palace that day, but they were all worried about it, if it wasn't for the fear of affecting the second brother's recuperation, they would have gone to the palace to visit the hospital. But we're human

Although we didn't go, we all asked the housekeeper to send things into the palace, and the second brother is getting better now, how can I not say hello to the brothers! Li Dongzhe followed to denounce Qin Yulai.

Later, before Guo Dong could say a word, Qin Yu raised his eyes and glanced at him, and then his eyes swept over Chen Yongyan and the three of them one by one, clearly a pair of heterochromatic eyes still had a mild color, but he swept it, but there was an invisible pressure, which made Guo Dong honestly shut up.

"This king didn't send any news, didn't you find it too? Alright, let's all sit down. Qin Yu leaned back on the chair, lazily crooked on Gu Qingwan's side, and only sat up slightly when he saw them come in, and raised his hand to greet him.

Shen Xue and the four of them all sat down with a smile, but Chen Yongyan noticed the shopkeeper standing next to him, raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Shopkeeper Zhu, what are you doing here?" ”

Shopkeeper Zhu bowed and said, "If you go back to the prince, it was Shen Gongzi who had something to inquire about and called the little one to solve his doubts." ”

Hearing this, Chen Yongyan and Shen Xue inevitably looked at Gu Qingwan, Gu Qingwan was not an ancient lady, even if she was stared at by several people at the same time, she was also calm, only smiled faintly, looked at the shopkeeper Zhu and asked: "I don't know if such a table of banquets, together with the cost of the private room, how many taels of silver can your store earn after removing the capital, and the shopkeeper Zhu can easily reveal one or two?" ”

These things can be regarded as the trade secrets of other restaurants, and the shopkeeper Zhu probably didn't expect Gu Qing to ask so clearly, so he was slightly stunned, his face was embarrassed, and he looked at Chen Yongyan.

Shen Ze, who had just sat down next to him, also showed curiosity, and bumped into Chen Yongyan sideways, and said, "How much do you earn from this table of wine and food?" ”

Chen Yongyan couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "How does the master know how much to earn!" This restaurant is the dowry shop of the mother concubine, and it is not the son of this world, so it has nothing to do with the son of this world. ”

After he said that, he kicked towards the shopkeeper Zhu and said, "Since Shen Gongzi asked, you just said, what are you doing!" ”

Chen Yongyan spoke, and Qin Yu sat beside Gu Qingwan, looking at him lightly, Shopkeeper Zhu didn't dare to shirk it anymore, and said with a smile: "I can probably earn seventy or eighty taels of silver." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper Zhu finished speaking, Gu Qing didn't do anything late, but Shen Xue and a few of them widened their eyes and looked frightened, Li Dongzhe was the first to exclaim, "How much?" I heard you wrong! ”

"Net profit of seventy or eighty taels of silver? The master's monthly silver for a month is only one hundred taels! Guo Dong couldn't help but exclaim.

Shen Ze sighed twice, picked up the folding fan on the table and knocked Chen Yongyan's head next to him twice, and said, "It's really dark!" The brothers are here on weekdays to entertain guests, but they don't give your family a lot of silver! ”

They usually eat out, and they don't give cash, they all let the restaurant keep it in the account, and the manager of the restaurant will settle the accounts in the accounts of each mansion every month. The silver that the sons eat and drink tea outside also belongs to the contacts of various provinces, and these silver do not go from their private accounts, but generally go from the public accounts of the houses.

For example, on weekdays, they go to a kiln, hold a play, or see some small objects for play, and if they want to buy them, they have to use their monthly silver.

Shen Xue is the pride of the sky, he only eats and drinks around on weekdays, where do he know how much silver is used for a table of meals, and how much silver can be earned in the restaurant.

This time, when I heard that I had a wine banquet in this Xianyue Building, the restaurant actually made a net profit of seventy or eighty taels of silver, which was almost worth their monthly routine for a month, and they were all a little frightened and unbelievable.

Chen Yongyan was also a little surprised, he was knocked twice by Shen Ze, and couldn't help blushing slightly, and said: "This is the dowry shop of the grandmother and concubine, and I will make a dowry for my grandmother and sister in the future, my lord...... I can't be the master, how do I know that I can earn so much, otherwise, I will go back to my mother today and talk to my mother, and in the future, I will be the east in Xianyue Tower, and I will collect less silver. ”

Chen Yongyan didn't expect his restaurant to be so dark, and he suddenly felt like he had cheated his brother's money, his face was slightly red, and his face was full of shame.

Shen Ze slapped the table and said, "Get out of here, your family is open for business, and the masters are not shabby people who can't afford to eat, where can they act like this?!" When it gets out, it doesn't make people laugh and lose their big teeth. ”

Li Dongzhe also played with the tea cup in his hand and said: "Good feelings are good feelings, but one yard is one yard, and we don't mean that." Ye also opened a teahouse in partnership with Dongzi last year, Ye specially asked for a shopkeeper from my second aunt to manage the shop for the two of them, and last year I didn't earn any silver, but I also lost some of it, and this year it was better, but I only earned forty or fifty taels a month. ”

Li Dongzhe said, Chen Yongyan also knew that they were not really annoyed, but they were too surprised to inevitably joke about him, he waved his hand to order the shopkeeper Zhu to step back, and said, "Why don't you know about your partnership to open a teahouse?" ”

Over there, Guo Dong sighed and said: "It's not a glorious thing to open a teahouse, if it weren't for the fact that the money was really tight, the two of them wouldn't think about opening a teahouse together, this kind of thing, can it be publicized everywhere." ”

Guo Dong said, glanced at Chen Yongyan, and then said: "We are not as good as Yongyan, there is a rich mother, who spends a lot of money on the Qinglou every day, and she is chic." ”

Shen Ze also pursed his lips, and then sighed, and said: "Hey, when it comes to this, the master is also a bitter tear, two days ago, the master saw a set of saddles in the Jinyulou, and asked, it actually cost 1,300 taels of silver, and the master only bought a set of eight jade gourds in the Jade Building last month, which cost two thousand taels of silver, and now where is the silver to buy the saddle, I can only endure the pain and leave the Jinyulou, and I don't know if the saddle has been bought now." ”

Shen Xue said, poured a glass of wine, raised his head and poured it, quite a little miserable.

Chen Yongyan blushed and said, "Who spent a lot of money in the Qinglou?" The silver of the grandfather month is only one hundred taels, and my grandmother hurts me on weekdays, and I make up one or two, and now I also saw a gold-topped general in the morning market, and the cry is a loud, it is definitely a rare good cricket, and the result is that I asked for five hundred taels of silver, and the lord is not reluctant to give up. If you want to talk about us, except for the second brother, who can not lack silver. ”

Gu Qingwan sat next to her, and without thinking about herself, she asked the shopkeeper two words, which caused Shen Xue and a few people to cry, she couldn't help blinking, approached Qin Yu, and said in surprise: "Aren't they all first-class sons of powerful people, and they are all sons and daughters of the family, how can they be short of money?" ”

It was rare for Qin Yu to see her take the initiative to get close to herself, hooked her lips, and also approached Gu Qingwan and said: "It is the son and sister-in-law, and there are also parents in the high hall, how much money and how much property there is in the house, and now they are not at home, it has nothing to do with them." They spend a lot of money one by one, so they can spend a thousand taels of silver a month, and they don't have a fief like the lord, and they can collect taxes every year, how can they not lack money? ”

Gu Qingwan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, but she understood, her eyes swept over Shen Xue and the others, and her mind moved again.
