Chapter 185: Qiaoweiju (2nd Update)

On February 18, the Xia family's two "Qiaowei Residences" were officially opened.

A shop on Fulai Street, which was sent by the prince of Zhongguo, is not large, but the location is excellent, and it has attracted everyone's attention before it opens, and there is no need to publicize it.

The other is located on Huihua Street, which is not far from Shangguan Street, and the location is naturally not comparable with Xilai Street and Fulai Street, but the store area is large, and there are Kyoto Kindergarten School and Huihua Girls' College nearby, which is very suitable for "Qiaoweiju", which is a dim sum shop that is popular with girls and children.

Qiaoweiju first launched a kind of dim sum called "cake" that has never been seen before in the Great Zhou, which is golden, soft and fragrant, and people can't put it down when you taste it. For nearly 10 days after the opening, the store's glass display cases were empty and empty, because every cake was snatched up by the customers waiting in long lines as soon as it was made.

Each of the two Qiaowei Curies has a long glass cabinet (display cabinet), which was sent by Nangong Yi. Nangong's family happened to buy some glass from the West, and they were going to try to make a flower warming house according to King Jing's idea, but they heard that the Shu Yao brothers and sisters were looking for glass, so they directly asked people to go to the store to ask about the shape, measure the size, and make two long cabinets and send them.

According to the opinions of the book, Qiaowei Ju on Huihua Street also has two private seats, one male and one female, which are not big, and can only put five tables and chairs that can seat three or four people.

Girlfriends and classmates can sit down to eat a snack and drink a cup of "Qiaoweiju" special flower honey water or goat's milk.

Of course, adult men who come into the store to sit down and negotiate are not limited to drinking "what women and children drink", they can choose green tea. The green tea of "Qiaoweiju" seems ordinary. I can't look down on those rich and noble people's homes. However, when brewed, it is sweet and fragrant, quiet but not watery, and has an endless aftertaste. It is not inferior to the rare top green tea such as Biluochun and Yunwu Maojian.

As a result, within a few days, everyone found that the men sitting in the "Qiaoweiju" to eat dim sum were no less than the women and children, and complained that the Qiaoweiju place was too small and there were too few seats.

Soon, Qiaoweiju successively launched several different flavors of cakes such as red beans, plum blossoms, and sesame seeds.

All of a sudden, "Qiaoweiju" swept the entire capital, and people with a little spare money in their pockets. You have to buy a piece of cake to taste, even if the whole family can only eat a piece of original cake.

While everyone was eating with relish, they couldn't help but envy the ability of "Qiaoweiju" to absorb silver, and even more envied the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and Zhongguo Mansion, which were part of "Qiaoweiju".

On the same day, Shuyao's sister and brother brought the deed sent by the prince of Zhongguo back to the summer house, Shujie thought about it, and called Mother Liu, Uncle Kui, and Jinniang, and after several people discussed, they decided to divide the elements of Qiaoweiju into three percent, one percent for the prince of Zhongguo, and two percent for Aunt Lan.

Wei Yuanhou and Zhongguo Gongzi didn't know what the three brothers and sisters of Lu Dao Shujie wanted to do, but since the three children were all in their hearts, they did not refuse. Just insist on taking their respective share of the input. I thought to myself, there are successful examples of "Shizhen Zhai" and "Mixue Tofu Workshop" in front. They had all tasted the dim sum sent by Xia Zhai before, and "Qiaoweiju" at least would not lose money. Moreover, they have a part in the "Qiaoweiju", and if anyone is looking for trouble, they can also justifiably intervene to intervene.

But I didn't expect that it had only been open for a few days, and I could already see that the "money" of "Qiaoweiju" was immeasurable. The two families couldn't help but sigh with emotion, especially the Zhongguo Gongshi and his wife, originally just thinking that Shu Yao had made so many contributions to "Lanyue Xuan", so they took a share of the meaning, and they could be regarded as supporting the three brothers and sisters of "Qiaoweiju" and Shujie, but they didn't expect that they had picked up a big bargain, and they also felt the love and wisdom of these three brothers and sisters even more.

Although the Zhong family has a money-making Lanyue Xuan, who thinks that there is a lot of silver? The family has a huge population, and the expenses are very scary, and even many of the declining big families are glamorous on the surface, but the pressure is heavy on the inside, and they are almost unable to make ends meet, such as the Jin family.

The previous Mixue Tofu Workshop was completely owned by the three brothers and sisters of Xia Zhai, and everyone didn't think much about it, but now I heard that the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and the Zhongguo Mansion have won a share, and many people can't sit still, and the first to bear the brunt is the Jin family.

The ancestor of the Jin family is also a marquis who made meritorious contributions to the Great Zhou, but it is not hereditary, only three generations, just to the generation of Jin Xida's grandfather. Kim Heeda's grandfather was not bad, but he was a mess of family affairs, so the inner house was chaotic, and several sons were also taken crookedly, and none of them were promising.

In the matter of the children and grandchildren of the inner house, the only thing that Kim Heida's grandfather did was to see that Kim Heeda was stronger than his sons and other grandsons, and that this grandson did not like his son and was not treated as well as his brother in front of his son, so he sent Kim Heeda to the prince to accompany him. Unexpectedly, Jin Xida met with the then prince and the current emperor as soon as they met, and they fell in love very much, and stayed directly in the palace.

If it weren't for entering the palace as a companion, Jin Xida wouldn't know if Lu Dao would grow up safely.

As soon as Kim Hee-da's grandfather died, the Kim family began to deteriorate day by day. Now, in addition to Jin Xida, among the descendants of the Jin family, there is only one seven-rank petty official who works in the household department and a sergeant who is on an errand in the forbidden army is a bit promising, and almost all the others are idle and enjoy their success.

Since the emperor officially ascended the throne, especially after the emperor Chrysostom said that Jin Xida was "my best friend", the Jin family has put the hope of "re-enrichment" on Jin Xida, wanting Jin Xida to help them get a high position, wanting to follow Jin Xida to get the light, and wanting to directly take everything Jin Xida got from the emperor for nothing to enjoy.

They take these things for granted, especially Jin Xida's half-brothers and sisters, who think that as long as they capture the heart of Mrs. Jin, as long as they use the word "filial piety" and the word "righteousness", they can make Jin Xida obediently treat them as cattle and horses. Even if Kim Heeda gets a knighthood, it must be their son's, because they have many ways to keep him without a son.

It's a pity that Jin Xida is not a person who plays cards according to the rules, and he has long been cold to Mrs. Jin, where does he care about "filial piety"? If it weren't for Mrs. Jin, he wouldn't have returned to the Jin Mansion at all. Unexpectedly, even Mrs. Jin made him feel cold, so he naturally ignored it, and directly declared that he was an out-and-out unfilial descendant, and he didn't want to be "filial".

The Jin family was so angry that they smoked, but they were helpless, and they were "reluctant" to drive Jin Xida out of the clan. They knew very well that Kim Xida didn't care about it at all, and maybe was even happier. But for them, it is better to hang this "blood" relationship half-dead than to have no relationship. Even, Mrs. Jin didn't dare to divorce Mrs. Jin, for fear that Jin Xida would cut off relations with him.

When Jin Xida recognized the children of the Xia family as their righteous sons and daughters, the emperor rewarded the Xia Mansion with a special reward, which made the eyes of the Jin family so red that they were about to bleed. Helplessly, the emperor clearly said that it was for the three brothers and sisters of Shujie, not for Jin Xida, and it was clearly stated in the holy decree that the three brothers and sisters had nothing to do with the Jin family, and they didn't dare to rob it no matter how red they were, and the rewards from the palace were not something anyone could take.

Knowing that the reward of the Emperor of the Dao Emperor was for Jin Xida, but their Jin family's flesh and blood couldn't even touch a piece of cloth, could there be anything more depressing than this?

The emperor's reward can't be moved, and the people of "Qiaoweiju" and "Mixue Tofu Fang" can always take it, right? Anyway, the children of the Xia family are also the righteous children of the Jin family, shouldn't they be filial to the righteous grandfather of the old lady Jin? Mrs. Jin was picked up by a group of children, the more she thought about it, the more right she became, taking advantage of the fact that the son of evil was not in the capital, and there were only three children in the summer house, it was true to hurry up and take advantage of it.

This is a dynasty that talks about "filial piety", no matter how shrewd a child is, he is not frightened, can he be as unscrupulous as Jin Xida's son?

"Isn't it?" Mrs. Jin, that is, the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Jin's favorite concubine, said busily: "As long as you hold the three children, father, the second brother must not listen to you obediently, I heard that he treats those children as his own." ”

"Hmm," Old Lady Jin nodded triumphantly.

Mrs. Jin hurriedly smiled and said: "Father, that Xia Shujie is the most popular son-in-law candidate in the capital now, father, the eldest sister is also sixteen this year." ”

The eldest girl of the Jin family is good-looking, Uncle Jin and the eldest lady have always wanted to let the eldest girl enter the palace for the draft, and if she can't be a concubine, she can be any prince or prince's woman.

It's a pity that according to the law of the Great Zhou, under normal circumstances, only the daughters or granddaughters of officials above the fifth grade can participate in the draft, otherwise they can only be palace maids when they enter the palace. There is naturally no problem for Jin Xida to be willing to help, but unfortunately what Jin Xida looks down on the most is the big house.

The eldest girl of the Jin family is now sixteen years old and has not yet decided on a family affair. The people they want to cling to know that Jin Xida and the Jin Mansion are not in agreement, so they naturally look down on them, and they are unwilling to marry low, so they are counting on this daughter to earn some benefits and turn over.

No, as soon as she saw that the old lady was ready to go out in person, Mrs. Jin immediately hit Shujie with her calculations.

Old lady Jin was about to nod, but suddenly remembered something: "The holy decree said that those three people have nothing to do with our Jin family, and my righteous grandfather is not recognized outside, and he can't be the master of their family affairs, and that son of evil and the Marquis of Weiyuan will not agree." "Mrs. Jin finally has self-knowledge, and she has not been dizzy by her children.

Mrs. Jin sighed: "Father, as long as you agree to this family business, there are some things that the second brother can't do if he wants to, let alone the turn of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion to oppose it." Father, you just have to call the three brothers and sisters to the house, and the daughter-in-law has her own way. ”

On the second day, the chief housekeeper of the Jin Mansion arrived at the Xia Mansion and proudly "requested" the three Shujie brothers and sisters to go to the Jin Mansion to visit the old lady and the old lady: "Master Xia, the old lady is sick and can't find the second master, and the old lady wants your three brothers and sisters to go back to visit the old lady on behalf of the second master."
