Chapter 172: Royal Tofu Workshop
Dong Xiaohua is the kind of person who is very straightforward, so she did not deliberately observe Lin Sixing's status in this line, her words were very casual, but made everyone in disguise feel comfortable.
It's just that the tofu workshop is not big, and it can't accommodate so many people at once, so except for Xiaolian Lin Sixing, who can have a bench to sit on, most of the people are standing.
"It's a little small." Xiaolian commented.
"Hmm." Lin Sixing nodded.
In the past, the guests came one by one, and occasionally only in groups of threes and twos, unlike them, more than ten people came at a time, although there were many people waiting outside the hospital, but it was still crowded for this small courtyard.
"Can you tell us about your father?" Xiaolian asked Dong Xiaohua.
In this regard, Dong Xiaohua just stared at her eyes wide, and she always believed that he was a friend of her father.
"Ahem, what about your mother?" Xiaolian hurriedly changed the topic.
"She...... I don't remember exactly. Dong Xiaohua squatted in the flower field, and she touched the deep purple-red flower.
"What's wrong?" Hyo-yeon asked.
"My father never told me about my mother, and I remember living with my mother when I was very young." Dong Xiaohua said.
"And then?" Xiaolian asked.
"I don't know which day, my mother will be gone, and my father is also very disappointed, and he has been drinking wine for several days." Dong Xiaohua said.
"That's right...... I'm sorry. Xiaolian apologized.
"It's okay, I'm used to it." Dong Xiaohua laughed very cheerfully, she looked at the flowers in this place and said: "Although my mother is not here, the flowers she planted have always been there." ”
Lin Sixing quietly summoned the head of the guard, lowered his voice and said, "Go and check." ”
The chief of the guard was ordered to retreat and immediately went to deploy manpower, and Hou, who had also dressed up outside the gate, immediately retreated a few and took action. All this was completed quickly, and Dong Xiaohua was still immersed in the memories of her mother and didn't have time to notice it.
"Since your father is not here, then I will tell you." Xiaolian said to Dong Xiaohua.
"What?" Dong Xiaohua asked.
"We want to buy this tofu shop and expand it." Hyo-ryong said.
On the side, Lin Sixing was almost choked by such lubricated tofu, he looked at Xiaolian in disbelief, he didn't say that he wanted to buy this tofu workshop, all this was Xiaolian's idea.
Without waiting for Dong Xiaohua to respond, Lin Sixing hurriedly pulled Xiaolian aside and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I didn't say I was going to buy this tofu shop!" Lin Sixing was a little anxious, after all, the words of filial piety over there had already come out.
"This amount of money is nothing to Your Majesty." Hyo-yeon replied.
"That's not the problem!" Lin Sixing didn't care about that money, even if it wasn't allocated from the treasury, it would have no effect if it was taken out of his private treasury.
"Is tofu delicious?" Xiaolian asked.
"Delicious...... Ay! That's not the problem. Lin Sixing almost screamed.
"Isn't Your Majesty trying to recruit talents?" Hyo-ryong suddenly made a big turn of 180°, and he asked the point.
"Right...... Ah......h
That's right, if it weren't for Xiao Lian's reminder, he would have forgotten that he was complaining to Xiao Lian about the lack of manpower at hand, and he needed a large number of talents to fill the current hole in the Lanhe Empire.
"Then Your Majesty will believe in me." Filial piety.
Lin Sixing thought about it, and finally nodded and agreed.
"Hey, have you finished talking?" Over there, Dong Xiaohua asked.
"Alright." Lin Sixing replied, he glanced at Xiaolian, to the effect that since you want to do this, then leave it to you.
Xiaolian also nodded at Dong Xiaohua and signaled that he was okay here.
"What do you mean...... What does it mean to buy a tofu shop? Dong Xiaohua asked.
"Literally, we want to buy this tofu shop." Filial piety.
"Not for sale!" Dong Xiaohua said resolutely.
"Why? Don't you love money? We have a lot of money. "Filial piety is incomprehensible, judging from Dong Xiaohua's performance, this is a woman who loves money.
"No, you can't!" Dong Xiaohua suddenly seemed to be a different person, she stretched out her hands and wanted to completely separate the group led by Xiaolian Lin Sixing from the tofu shop.
For Dong Xiaohua, this is not just a simple tofu shop located in the imperial capital. This is an emotional sustenance for her, this flower field was planted by her mother, and the tofu workshop was also supported by her father, and this is her home.
Who will sell their home? No matter how much Dong Xiaohua loves money, she will not do this. Moreover, the mother will not come back, but the father does not know what happened to him and when he will be able to come back.
All Dong Xiaohua can do is to stay here quietly and guard her small home.
"Oh...... Don't worry, the tofu shop is still you and your father's tofu shop, we just want to put it in our name. Xiaolian seemed to know what Dong Xiaohua thought, he explained.
"What does that mean?" Dong Xiaohua heard Xiaolian say this, and her guard finally let go a little.
"That is to say, we like the tofu you make, so we will give you a lot of money to help you make this tofu shop bigger. Of course, our only request is that the name of the tofu shop may need to be changed. ”
"Really?" Dong Xiaohua asked incredibly, is there such a good thing in the world?
"Of course it's true, your father and I are old acquaintances, and I've had your father's help before. I came to discuss this with your father, but he was not there. Xiaolian continued, he is not lying, if it were not for Dong Xiaohua's father, his previous crime of bullying the monarch would have been implemented, which can be regarded as a little help, Xiaolian thought so.
"Then I'll think again?" Dong Xiaohua doesn't look like a bad person when she looks at Xiaolian.
"Okay, we'll come back in a few days." Hyo-ryong said this, and then wrapped up the remaining tofu and took it away.
"Xiaolian, what the hell are you trying to do?" As soon as he got out of the small courtyard, Lin Sixing asked.
"Everyone should know about the delicious food." Filial piety replied that the bull's head was not the horse's mouth.
"......" Lin Sixing was speechless, this filial piety always seems to be unreliable, or until the last moment, you never know how he plans to reveal his hole cards.
Sure enough, four days later, Xiaolian and Lin Sixing came to Huatian Tofu Shop again.
"If this place is really bought by you, then what is this tofu shop going to be renamed?" Dong Xiaohua asked.
"I want to think about it...... Why don't you just call it Royal Flower Field Tofu Workshop? Hyo-ryong replied with a smile.
Happy birthday to Dad
