As soon as Lu Qingrong entered the door of the Yu Courtyard, he heard the maid's report that Lu Qianyu was here.

She came directly to the flower hall, and saw that Lu Qianyu was saying something to Qiulan, and Qiulan looked a little embarrassed.

Seeing that Lu Qingrong finally came back, Qiulan immediately retreated after asking for peace.

"Why did the second sister come over? I didn't even notice it in advance. Lu Qingrong sat down next to Lu Qianyu casually.

Seeing that there was only one person standing aside in the house, Lu Qianyu also saved a little courtesy, and replied: "It's been a few days since Wangyulou opened, I didn't want to come over and report to you!" ”

Lu Qingrong raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said with a smile: "These things about the operation of restaurants, I'm afraid it's no different from playing the piano to the cow!" ”

Lu Qianyu covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief, but still laughed, and said with her metaphor: "Even if you are a cow, then you are also our rich man, and this piano should be talked about!" ”

Only then did Lu Qingrong put on a deferential look.

"The layout of the restaurant and the kitchen stove have been neatly arranged, and the manpower is enough. These days, at least it looks like business is doing well! The bookkeeper we hired said that if this continues, it will not be a problem to earn the rent after a year. Hehe...... Of course, he estimated the rent according to the market, and he didn't know that we hadn't actually paid half a penny......"

Lu Qingrong automatically ignored her later words, and said happily: "I didn't expect you and your cousin to be so powerful, and they would start making profits so soon." ”

"It's not profitable yet." Lu Qianyu's smile did not decrease, and she was even quite proud. "It's just that the losses have been getting less and less every day in recent days!"

Lu Qing smiled and nodded: "It's really rare to think like this." The most taboo thing about doing business is to be quick success. ”

Lu Qianyu nodded again and again, the freshness of opening a restaurant has not passed, and she continued to talk about Wangyulou, from the daily flow of customers, to the ingredients in the kitchen, and then from Yin Zihao's diligence and seriousness. Speaking of the various items on the menu......

At first, Lu Qingrong listened to it with relish, and he didn't think that this kind of gag tone was inconsistent with Lu Qianyu.

But the more you hear the back. The more she felt it, Lu Qianyu seemed to be intentionally amusing herself again.

"Second sister, what's the matter?" Lu Qingrong simply asked directly.

Lu Qianyu was quiet for a moment, frowned and asked, "Where did you go just now?" ”

"There are guests in the house to stay temporarily, I'll go to Lichun Courtyard to help arrange it......" Lu Qingrong responded casually. Halfway through. reacted suddenly, this is probably Lu Qianyu's intention.

Seeing that Lu Qianyu's brows were furrowing deeper and deeper, Lu Qingrong knew that he had guessed correctly.

She wasn't surprised.

As early as a month or two ago, when Lijuan was pregnant, the rumors that she was the outer room of the Marquis of Jingyuan were already in the crowd, and it was Lu Qianyu who came to remind her.

Now that Lijuan has lived in the Hou Mansion, it will inevitably be more difficult to block Youyou's mouth.

Lu Qianyu really followed up and said, "I heard earlier that the woman in Muxi Hutong was going to move into the Hou Mansion. We didn't take it seriously...... How did you end up with such a field? ”

"Second sister, don't believe the rumors outside, about Lijuan. It's not convenient for me to disclose, but there is one thing that she and her children have nothing to do with the world. Lu Qingrong was very serious, for fear that Lu Qianyu would not believe it.

Lu Qianyu really didn't believe it.

Originally, whether it was a concubine or an outer room, it was not a new thing in the Great Qi Dynasty, but Lu Qianyu was different, she followed Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru since she was a child, and when she grew up, she married directly to Yin's mansion, and she rarely had the opportunity to see these in this life. In her eyes, monogamy is the norm, and any concubine or something like that is a monster.

"Don't grieve yourself!" Lu Qianyu said eagerly: "I heard that they haven't crossed the road yet, you have to be stronger-willed, and you can't open this opening." It's really not good, you can go back to your father to make the decision, but my father's official is getting bigger and bigger, and he can still do some things! Also, you must not be held back by others for our sake, at most this restaurant ...... We're not open! ”

The more Lu Qianyu spoke, the more excited she became.

What a mess is this...... Lu Qingrong thought secretly.

Listening to her, Lu Qingrong only felt that if the two hadn't grown up together since childhood, it would be difficult to understand.

"I understand what the second sister means, but you're also going too far!" Lu Qingrong tried his best to be serious, "It is said that Lijuan has nothing to do with the world, but think about it, when did I lie to you?" ”

Lu Qianyu bit her lip and thought for a long time, and reluctantly changed from completely unbelieving just now to being suspicious.

"If you still don't believe me, I'll let the son of the world tell you!" Lu Qingrong was about to get up.

Lu Qianyu hurriedly stopped her first: "No, no!" I can't believe it! ”

Lu Qingrong knew that this was the result, but in fact, Jiang Xuan was not in the mansion at all.

The two sisters chatted for a while, and Lu Qianyu saw that Lu Qingrong's ease did not seem to be a fake, so she was slightly relieved and left.

Lu Qingrong was afraid that Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru would also hear about it, so he hurriedly revised a letter to explain the matter and sent someone to send it to his mother.

As soon as the letter was sent, Jiang Xuan returned.

"Are you settled?" Jiang Xuan asked first.

"Hmm." Lu Qingrong nodded, roughly told the story of the morning, and remembered, "I see that Lijuan only brought a grandmother with him, not even a nurse, it is said that the maid was also taken away for questioning, I don't know if there is a result?" ”

"It's kind of progress." Jiang Xuan's tone was slightly heavy, "The mother-in-law on the stove who was at fault the most did not stand the interrogation, and died two days ago, but fortunately, the clues were not broken, and someone came forward to testify, seeing that she had dealings with people in the palace...... But who exactly is unknown. ”

The people in the palace?

After hearing this, Lu Qingrong's first reaction in his heart was, could it be that the emperor said one thing and did another, and while letting Jiang Xuan properly place Lijuan, he secretly had murderous intentions?

After thinking about it, I felt that if the emperor really wanted to put their mother and daughter to death, it seemed that there was no need to hide it like this......

Jiang Xuan was about to say something about this, when a maid suddenly came outside to report: "Princess Jing sent someone over and asked Mrs. Shizi to come over." ”

Lu Qingrong was stunned for a moment.

At this stall, Tang Yue looking for her must have something to do with Lijuan's entry into the mansion, but whether it is similar to Lu Qianyu's thoughts, or whether he pays more attention to Lijuan's side, it is not clear.

"Second Prince...... Do you know the truth? Lu Qingrong asked.

"I didn't say that." Jiang Xuan paused, and then said meaningfully: "The ministers of the loyal monarch should be like this." ”

Lu Qingrong understood and immediately said: "Since this is the case, I will not reveal half a point." ”

Jiang Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand and held Lu Qingrong's pair of soft hands in it.

Lu Qingrong could clearly see the pity in his eyes, but he couldn't resist the heat.

I saw that she hurriedly pulled out her hand, turned around and went to the clean room, ready to change her clothes and go to the palace. (To be continued......)
