Chapter 487: A Lot of Acquaintances (Today's Update)

Longque Street is the most prosperous street in the capital, with the tall central city tower as the center, the houses on both sides are lined up one after another, tea houses, restaurants, inns, silk shops, silver buildings...... Most of the shops that can compete for a place on this street are high-end shops, and of course, the cost of entering the shops is also high.

At this time, the brilliant sunlight is shining between the green tiles and red walls everywhere, and the flamboyant cornices, the high fluttering shop signs, the sparkling carriages, and the endless flow of pedestrians are all showing the "value" of Longque Street.

The Yayi Teahouse in Prince Yong's Mansion is in the middle of Longque Street, which is said to be one of the dowry gifts given by Prince Yong to the former princess before the wedding (it was originally a restaurant), and then it was used as a dowry. God knows how much Mrs. Luo wanted to get rid of this shop back then (half of the dowry can be left, but most of the people with good faces are added to the dowry of their daughters), but unfortunately it is not her turn to be in charge, Mrs. Luo not only did not allow it, but also used almost half of the Luo family's wealth and antiques as the first princess's dowry, for fear that her daughter would be underestimated in the royal family.

The first princess has an elegant and quiet temperament, likes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, and has a very extraordinary tea art kung fu (making tea for Prince Yong is the boudoir fun of the couple), and she doesn't like noisy restaurants at all, Prince Yong encouraged her to change the thriving restaurant on Longque Street to a "Yayi" teahouse, and you can also make an appointment with three or two good handkerchiefs to taste tea and look at the street scene of Longque Street, anyway, they are not short of silver in Prince Yong's mansion.

Unexpectedly, although the first princess was not good at business, she had her own unique views on tea selection, tea brewing, tea tasting, as well as the environment and soundtrack for tea drinking. In addition, because he inadvertently got a good fate, he helped the two strange people who later became the storyteller in the teahouse. Yayi Teahouse has become the most respected teahouse in the capital and even in the entire Great Zhou. It has not been surpassed for so many years.

After Qi Haoning and Shu Yao made a marriage, the shopkeeper of Yayi Teahouse suggested "introducing" Qiaoweiju's dim sum, and Gui Bo, the chief housekeeper of the palace, went to the Lianghou Mansion. The two families are in-laws, and they are mutually beneficial, how can the decision-makers of the Xia family's business disagree? Soon, as long as the location of Yayi Tea House also has Qiaoweiju, there will be a limited supply of Qiaoweiju's special refreshments. With this exclusive advantage, the business of the tea house is naturally better.

The carriage of the Lianghou Mansion was parked in the backyard of the Yayi Tea House. Shu Yao took the four princesses and Qi Yueling to get out of the carriage one after another, and all three of them wore hats. This is the first time Qi Yueling and the two have gone shopping on the street (although they are shopping on the street in a carriage, and their sister Yao'er said that they can see the street scene in the private room of the teahouse today), especially the first time Qi Yueling went to her own teahouse, and she was very excited.

The big shopkeeper who got the news was already waiting in the backyard to receive the three nobles in person, and also prepared the "Longjing" private room with the best location and the most suitable for seeing the street scene. (The private rooms of Yayi Tea House are all named after the name of tea, such as Biluochun, Maofeng, Yunwu, Yinzhen, Tieguanyin, etc.).

"Three girls, please upstairs," the shopkeeper greeted warmly and calmly. Of course, he knew who the three noble ladies in front of him were, and he also knew that the teahouse was full of people, so in order to avoid anyone disturbing the three of them. Or bring some trouble, not to reveal their identity. Especially the four princesses who are difficult to get out of the palace and their own county lords.

This big shopkeeper is the companion of the first princess, and today is the first time to see Lord Yue, and he is also extremely happy.

The three of them entered the teahouse from the back door with the big shopkeeper, and were about to go upstairs, when Qi Yueling suddenly called happily in the direction of the door: "Brother Yu." Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes and looked over, and sure enough, it was Yu Zhengran who was dressed in white.

Qi Yueling hadn't seen Yu Zhengran for a long time, and as soon as she was happy, she blurted out to call someone, and after calling, she remembered that she was in the teahouse at this time, and it was not appropriate to expose her identity, so she quickly covered her mouth as if she had lost her sheep. Fortunately, wearing a hood, no one could see her embarrassment and remorse at the moment.

Qi Yueling's voice was not loud, but there were still a few people around who looked over, although the clothes and jewelry of these three girls were simple, they were not ordinary things, wearing hats, and a few maids and women behind them followed carefully, and there were even two guards, and the big shopkeeper personally led the way and waited, it was obvious that she was not an ordinary woman, she was either rich or expensive.

Shu Yao and the big shopkeeper both chuckled and lifted their hearts. Shu Yao said secretly, I always heard that the eldest brother and Qi Haoning were really a smart person, so I shouldn't suddenly be unable to react, and asked who Yue'er was, or did I make a big gift here?

I have to say that Shu Yao was too worried, and as soon as Yu Zhengran heard the silver bell-like voice, he knew that it was his sister, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and there was involuntary doting in his eyes: This child! It's so careless out there! It's really too well protected by the imperial grandmother, and it's innocent.

However, at this moment, the warmth and family affection in his heart are surging, and others can't understand it. Not only did he miss Yue'er, who he hadn't seen for a long time, but it was obvious that Yue'er was also excited to see him, otherwise she wouldn't have blurted out him.

Zhengran said to the colleague who looked at him with a smile on his face, "A sister, still a child, I'll go over and say hello." ”

Zhengran's body intentionally or unintentionally blocked the eyes that looked at Qi Yueling, and even looked back at the past, making the family turn away embarrassedly, and then smiled at Qi Yueling: "What a child who doesn't grow up, watch the stairs carefully." It's a shame that your eldest brother said two days ago that you have grown up! Haha, okay, let's go upstairs, I also made an appointment with a friend for tea. ”

"Well, Brother Yu, you can get busy." Qi Yueling was secretly glad that fortunately, Brother Yu was smart, not only guessed that it was her, but also helped her cover up the past.

Shu Yao also breathed a sigh of relief, nodded at Yu Zhengran, and pulled Qi Yueling upstairs.

Hearing the big shopkeeper let out a long exhale, and wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, Shu Yao couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, there is no danger!

It's just that why does she feel that Yu Zhengran is a little ...... Odd. Is she too sensitive? The five senses are too agile? But she really felt that Yu Zhengran's eyes and tone when she looked at Yue'er, it was too ...... Strange!

Before she could figure out what the strangeness was, she was startled by a chattering argument. In the waiting hall at the staircase on the second floor (Yayi Teahouse's business is too good, a short rest place specially prepared for guests waiting for private rooms), an old woman raised her voice: "Is there a mistake?" This is my daughter's property, we can have a private room wherever we want, and what do we want to book? Who ordered 'Longjing'? Where are the people? Wait for someone to come, explain, wouldn't it be enough to change them to a room? It's a big deal to take them less money. ”

What a big breath! Daughter? Shu Yao smiled, acquaintance! Looking at the past in a blink of an eye, isn't it Mrs. Luo who is training people majestically? And the one standing next to her, not surprisingly, is Qin Kexin, Concubine Zhao, and Qi Yuexin, there are so many acquaintances!

The fourth princess and Qi Yueling also saw Concubine Zhao and Qi Yuexin, and heard "my daughter's inheritance" in Mrs. Luo's mouth (they haven't seen Mrs. Luo yet, but they know that she has come to the capital). However, seeing Shu Yao standing there quietly unmoved, they didn't dare to move, and stood behind her obediently.

The big shopkeeper frowned, and beckoned the second shopkeeper who hurried over from another direction and was about to deal with the problem: "Take these three girls to 'Longjing', and I'll solve it over there." "That's the first princess's mother-in-law, the second shopkeeper has never seen it, I don't know a lot of things, and it's useless in the past.

The second shopkeeper saw that the big shopkeeper was back, wiped his sweat, and replied in a loud voice, "Yes, three girls, please", and hurriedly welcomed Shu Yao and others to the "Longjing" private room, and the two guards guarded the door.

Over there, Qin Kexin's eyes were sharp, and he said to Mrs. Luo, who was still playing prestige: "Grandmother, the guests of the 'Longjing' private room have arrived, and they have entered, and there are still people guarding the door." "Looking at the appearance of the two guards dressed up, you know that the people inside should not be easy to mess with. In order to avoid colliding with nobles, Qin Kexin has kept her father's words in mind since she entered Beijing, and has carefully followed Mrs. Luo to learn the skills of guessing and identifying the master's origin from the aspects of clothing, subordinates, carriage logos and other aspects (Mrs. Luo San is afraid that she will make trouble and implicate Luo Fu, but she is also willing to teach her), this bit of eyesight is still there.

Concubine Zhao also looked over when she heard this, uh, those two guards are extraordinary, how do they look like they came out of the palace? At least it's a place like a royal palace. She is not surprised that people will come out of the palace to Yayi Teahouse, which is a leisure place for rich and noble people and elegant people, and it is also the property of Prince Yong's mansion, and there are many relatives of the emperor who come here.

She hesitated, did she want to encourage Old Lady Luo to continue fighting? It's just that if the people in it are really something they can't afford to mess with, she can't get out of it. That old woman can be shameless, and she has long been faceless, but she can't!

However, however, the "Dragon Well" is the largest, the best view, and the best decoration, which is difficult for ordinary people to book, and the cost is staggering. To other private rooms, although there are also good, but still a lot worse.

Concubine Zhao has been coveting this Yayi teahouse for more than 20 years, but not to mention the Yayi teahouse, she can't get the other two shops with different locations and sizes of Prince Yong on Longque Street. Every time he mentioned it around the corner, the prince didn't answer, and after saying a few more words, he frowned and left.

After the death of the first princess, the first thing that Concubine Zhao set her eyes on was the Yayi Teahouse, but unfortunately the Queen Mother's people soon took over the dowry industry of the first princess, including the Yayi Teahouse. Even when she takes people to the teahouse to consume, she has to make reservations like other guests, and she has to pay cash, and she doesn't have any face at all. She wants to use those household items, where is she willing to take them out to save face, two or three times can't get benefits, but people don't dare to come after watching jokes.

Today, Qi Yuexin pestered her to see the newly opened "Beauty Pavilion" fat powder shop with many discounts, and she remembered that Mrs. Tuoluo came to take advantage of it, and also enjoyed the best "Longjing" private room in Yayi Teahouse. (To be continued......)
