Chapter 129: Confession
Yunyan's restaurant finally opened after a long time of preparation.
Because it is a restaurant opened by the county lord, and Sun Yu is in charge, even if the magnates in the capital do not give Yunyan face, they must give Sun Yu some face, so on the opening day, the restaurant was almost crowded with magnates.
Yunyan thought of such a situation early on, so he deliberately divided the restaurant into two areas, and there were many tables in the lobby downstairs, in addition to leaving a place for Xiao Er to serve food, the tables and chairs were full, and many private rooms were set upstairs, and the private rooms were separated by movable doors.
In short, it can perfectly meet the needs of the nobles and the common people.
Zhao Mingsheng shuttled between the nobles, introducing the special dishes in the restaurant, whether he would also be ridiculed.
"Yo, isn't this Zhao Shizi? How did you get to be a starting house in this restaurant? Yunyan turned around and saw a man in brocade clothes grabbing Zhao Mingsheng and laughing: "I forgot, Zhao Shizi has broken away from the mother-son relationship with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and now he is just a grass people." ”
"Hey!" Another prince in a fancy costume stepped forward and stopped the son who was mocking Zhao Mingsheng: "Although Brother Zhao moved out of the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess has not gone to the official mansion to file a case and write down the documents, how can you say that?" ”
It seems that he is speaking for Zhao Mingsheng, but if you listen carefully, it is clear that Zhao Mingsheng is just relying on the power of the eldest princess, if the eldest princess is really ruthless, then he Zhao Mingsheng is nothing.
Yunyan was slightly worried, with Zhao Mingsheng's thoughts, how could she not hear what the boy said, but she didn't expect that the smile on Zhao Mingsheng's face did not decrease at all, but scratched his head, and said very embarrassedly: "Shouldn't your focus be on this restaurant, let me tell you, these wines and dishes are personally designated by the county lord of Yunyan, you must taste them." ”
As he spoke, Zhao Mingsheng smiled and invited a few sons and brothers who knew him to the box, as if he had been ridiculed at all.
Seeing that he was busy before and after, he didn't even drink saliva, and he always looked smiling when he saw the guests coming, even if he was ridiculed and ridiculed, he didn't care at all, Yunyan was slightly moved in his heart.
When Zhao Mingsheng went to other places to get busy, the two sons who had just ridiculed him began to say: "A few days ago, I heard that the eldest princess went to the Yunyan County Lord's Mansion in person, and I don't know what she said, so Zhao Shizi wants to cut off the mother-son relationship with the eldest princess. ”
"That's not simple, the eldest princess naturally doesn't look down on the Yunyan County Lord, and wants the Yunyan County Lord to retreat, but I didn't expect Zhao Shizi to have a deep affection for the Yunyan County Lord, and he can do it to this extent for the County Lord."
They discussed, and they all felt that Zhao Mingsheng was busy here for Yunyan, and these words naturally got into Yunyan's ears, Yunyan glanced at Zhao Mingsheng who was busy, although he was moved in his heart, he really didn't want to be involved with him too much, at least he didn't want to get too close to him, and he was too intimate.
Just as she was thinking this, the voice of discussion over there rang out again.
"I'm afraid you're not mistaken, why is the relationship between Lord Yunyan and Zhao Shizi good? Didn't it mean that His Royal Highness the Third Prince fell in love with the Lord of Yunyan? Otherwise, when this restaurant opened, how could I hear that His Royal Highness the Third Prince was the owner behind it? ”
Yun Yan's heart sank, turned her head to look at Yun Chan, who was also busy, and saw that her face was not very good, so she was even more worried, Yun Chan knew Sun Yu's thoughts, Sun Yu also seemed to like Yun Chan a little, before Sun Yu went to her house to discuss with her about opening a restaurant, Yun Chan would always find an excuse to see Sun Yu, and at that time Yun Yan knew Yun Chan's thoughts.
Thinking that Yun Chan had become much more alienated from her after returning from the palace, Yun Yan felt that she must not be misunderstood in this matter, after all, there are indeed a lot of rumors about her and Sun Yu in the capital now.
"Do you have any suggestions for these dishes?" Yun Yan is the boss of this restaurant no matter what he says, and it is reasonable to pay attention to the dishes, plus Yun Yan's identity, he can naturally speak among this group of nobles.
Since the county lord of Yunyan has asked, they have all begun to talk about their own suggestions, but it is nothing, saying that it is a suggestion, in fact, they are all praising Yunyan for how well the restaurant is done, and the novelty of the dishes is something they have not eaten before, but this meal feels very appetizing and so on.
Occasionally say a few words about the lack of taste of the dishes, Yunyan will also write it down carefully, and then she beckoned everyone to eat and drink well, and said to Hao Xue beside her in front of everyone: "Where is Zhao Gongzi?" Go and call him to come up and eat, he hasn't had a good rest after being busy for so long. ”
The sons and buddies who had previously guessed that Yunyan and Sun Yu had something to do looked at each other, so it was said that the county lord of Yunyan belonged to Zhao Gongzi, rather than caring for His Royal Highness the Third Prince as rumored by the outside world?
After Haoxue called Zhao Mingsheng up, Yun Yan raised the towel handed over by the maid again, and personally wiped the sweat on Zhao Mingsheng's forehead.
Zhao Mingsheng watched Yun Yan wipe his sweat for him, and now he was puzzled for a moment, and then remembered the ridicule of those sons and brothers before him, and knew that Yun Yan was justifying his name, and there was a warm current in his heart, and the smile on the corner of Zhao Mingsheng's mouth became brighter and brighter.
A meal is not not enjoyable, in this upstairs box, are all acquaintances of the capital magnates, although there is no order, Yunyan has all the signature dishes in the store, and said that you are willing to appreciate the face, that is, for her store to do the best publicity, so she invited this meal.
When those nobles saw Yunyan's arrogance, they added some good feelings in their hearts, and after a meal, it seemed that Yunyan had also integrated into this circle a little.
After sending everyone away, Yunyan no longer paid attention to Zhao Mingsheng, and only turned around to go to the back kitchen to have a look, for fear that something would go wrong, after all, if this restaurant wants to really gain a foothold in the capital, it can't make any mistakes.
Zhao Mingsheng was puzzled by Yunyan's hot and cold, although he knew that Yunyan was more intimate in order to help him, but suddenly being so cold also made Zhao Mingsheng feel a little surprised in his heart.
However, now the overall situation is important, and it is inconvenient for him to ask Yunyan directly in the restaurant, so he simply suppresses the confusion in his heart first, and quietly acts as a "running hall" with a smile on his face.
When the restaurant closed in the evening, Yunyan and the others returned to the county lord's mansion, Zhao Mingsheng took a bath and changed clothes, cleaned up the self who looked a little embarrassed because he was busy, and then took a pot of wine to find Yunyan.
Yunyan is settling accounts in the room, the expenses on the first day are really a bit big, although there are some entries in the restaurant, but the opening rewards, no matter how you calculate it, it is a loss, but it doesn't matter, you always have to invest some at the beginning.
When Zhao Mingsheng came, Yunyan just put down the pen, stretched his waist and prepared to go out for a walk, and then wash and rest.
"Why are you here?" Seeing Zhao Mingsheng appear at the door of her room, Yunyan was slightly stunned, turned around and wanted to go to find Haoxue, but remembered that she was a little hungry just now, and Haoxue went to the kitchen to help her see if there was anything to eat.
"I'm here to get you a drink." Zhao Mingsheng didn't overstep, just stood at the door and raised the wine jug in his hand.
Yunyan frowned, and his tone was a little impatient: "It's late at night now, it's not appropriate for the two of us to drink alone, you can go back." She stepped forward to close the door, but Zhao Mingsheng pinched her wrist: "What are you doing?" ”
"Yunyan, I'm ......" Zhao Mingsheng just wanted to explain, but Yunyan shook his hand away.
"Zhao Mingsheng, can you stop pestering me? You're not tired, I'm tired! She was about to close the door, but Zhao Mingsheng was one step ahead of her and stepped directly into her room, and Yun Yan stomped her feet angrily: "You let me out!" ”
"I don't!" Zhao Mingsheng's temper also rose, and he put the wine jug in his hand on the table: "Xiao Yunyan, let me tell you, I, Zhao Mingsheng, have identified you in my life and want me to leave you?" I advise you to put away this thought! ”
Yun Yan Qi knot: "You! You're a scoundrel! She walked up to Zhao Mingsheng and said very angrily, her voice unconsciously raised by two points: "Zhao Mingsheng, there are so many ladies in the capital for you to choose, why do you want to pester me?!" I'm just a village girl from the middle of the village, is it worth it?! ”
"It's worth it!" As soon as I heard what she said, I knew that Yunyan still cared about what Sun Ying said, Zhao Mingsheng felt a lot more relieved, it seems that Yunyan's reaction now is mostly because he is still angry with him, he calmed down his emotions, raised his hand and grabbed Yunyan's shoulder: "Xiao Yunyan, you don't have to care about what my mother said, the person who likes you is me, and the person who wants to spend the rest of your life with you is also me, in the future, I mean if you can marry me willingly, we become a family, and the person who will accompany you for the rest of your life is also me, Since the road ahead is for me to walk with you, why should you care what others think? ”
Yunyan was slightly stunned, his eyes were extremely firm, and every word he said was unquestionable, she could see that Zhao Mingsheng was serious.
Swallowing her saliva, Yunyan couldn't say a word, she really didn't expect Zhao Mingsheng to say this to her, that's right, she cared about Sun Ying's words, although she didn't react at the time, and even contradicted Sun Ying, but in the final analysis, it was because she cared about Sun Ying's words that she began to show such a loving attitude towards Zhao Mingsheng, but these words were clearly not what Zhao Mingsheng said, and they were clearly not what Zhao Mingsheng thought, is it really fair to be angry with him like this? Is it really appropriate?
Just when Yunyan was stunned and didn't know how to react, Zhao Mingsheng's face slowly approached, and his lips were suddenly covered with warmth.
