The queen's eyes softened, "Before you got married, this palace said that since you are my daughter-in-law, then I am also half of your mother." If you are short of silver, the palace will have two chests of gold brought to you from the treasury, and you will not be wronged. ”

"After all, it's very hard to do it yourself, so you can ask the people below to do it appropriately, and don't be too tired."

The queen's words can be described as serious, and Li Qiuchi suddenly felt emotional. After all, in ancient times, many thoughts were deeply rooted, and she not only accused herself of saying this, but this kind of thought alone already made her very grateful.

Putting aside the complicated emotions in her heart, she smiled, "The queen mother's kindness is understood, but the son-in-law wants to do a career, and the son-in-law wants to prove to the world that women can also do great things." ”

When the queen heard this, she felt a little touched in her heart, as if she saw her former shadow in her, and she was also so high-spirited in the past.

"It's a good thing that you have such a big ambition." The queen's voice was flat, "Okay, this palace won't stop you." ”

Hearing this, the joy in Li Qiuchi's heart seemed to jump out immediately, and she said happily: "Thank you, Queen Mother!" ”

After getting the queen's permission, Li Qiuchi knelt down happily, and he was in a good mood on the way away.

On the other side, the ladies of Chaoyang City gathered.

It's autumn season, and the red maple leaves in the distance are falling, as if dyed red by the rising sun. The garden was still full of flowers, and the people inside gathered at a table, everyone was dressed brightly, and a group of people laughed like a warbler and swallows, and suddenly surrounded the whole garden. Several white jade teapots on the table are even more elegant with pastries.

At this time, a gorgeously dressed woman with delicate eyebrows covered her mouth and chuckled: "Guess, what is the reason why the crown princess was summoned to the palace by the queen mother today?" ”

The woman in light green clothes poured a cup of tea casually, "Do you still need to guess, the crown princess of the dignified Zhou Dynasty is just a businessman, and such an insulting thing has spread the news of the royal face, and she must have been summoned in and scolded." ”

Someone exclaimed in disbelief, "How could the crown princess want to be in business?" That's what only lowly people do, and they've always been looked down upon......"

"Maybe the crown princess also wants to experience the life of a lowly person? It's really kind-hearted. ”

The words fell, and a low chuckle was set off.

"What about the businessman's background? Don't you depend on merchants for food? Mrs. Ling Anhou's expression suddenly became displeased, "You also have to live on money, who is more noble than whom, can you live without money?" According to your meaning, Mrs. Ben was born in a businessman, so she is naturally lowly and lowly? ”

Mrs. Ling Anhou has quite a prestige among the noblewomen, and seeing her unhappy face, the people next to her hurriedly explained: "Madam, you misunderstood, we are talking about the crown princess, and we don't mean to target you." ”

The people next to him also hurriedly agreed, "Yes, yes, the main thing is that the crown princess is married to the royal family, and if she is in business, she is afraid that it will damage her face." ”

"The crown princess has been smiling and generous since she was in business, and she shows up for her restaurant all day long, she has no duty that a woman should keep, we are just talking about her."

Mrs. Ling Anhou sneered, and her cool eyes swept over everyone, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't say anything, you fell behind your back and chewed your tongue, so that others didn't laugh at it." Besides, why can't women be in business? She can run such a big restaurant and run it so well, that's her ability. ”

She was still on fire in her heart, and she calmed down and said: "There is still something in the house, so I won't accompany it." ”

After saying that, Mrs. Ling Anhou strode away from this place.

Everyone looked at her back as she left angrily, looked at each other for a while, and then quickly started talking about new topics.

At this moment, Li Qiuchi was developing a new recipe in the Zuixuan Building, and she was having a headache about how to promote the new recipe faster, when someone came to the door.

Hearing that the shopkeeper said that the man wanted to see her by name, although she was puzzled, she immediately got up and went out to greet her.

Li Qiuchi fixed his eyes and saw a richly dressed woman sitting at a tea table, with a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, and a noble and calm temperament all over her body. She was stunned, at this time, the noble woman had already noticed her, and she was about to walk over when she stood up, Li Qiuchi also hurriedly walked over, smiling gently: "I don't know what the lady wants to do with me?" ”

The noble woman's voice was faint: "I am Mrs. Ling Anhou." ”

Li Qiuchi was not surprised, she smiled quietly: "Madame wants me to buy your grandson's full moon banquet, right?" ”

Mrs. Ling Anhou raised her eyebrows slightly, "How did you find out?" ”

Li Qiuchi smiled faintly: "I happened to receive an invitation from my wife a few days ago, and my wife came to the restaurant again today, so I can naturally guess one or two." ”

Mrs. Ling Anhou did not deny it, "Yes, the observation is meticulous. Her quiet eyes fell on Li Qiuchi, with a rather elegant look.

"Mrs. Ben came to your Drunken Mansion today, I hope you won't disappoint Mrs. Ben," Mrs. Ling Anhou paused when she spoke, "But Mrs. Ben wants you to personally arrange this full moon banquet." ”

Li Qiuchi was happy when she heard that someone trusted her, and she smiled and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will never disappoint your high expectations." ”

After returning to the East Palace at night, Chu Jinrong was bored painting on rice paper. Suddenly seeing Li Qiuchi coming back, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the pen in his hand was quickly put down.

He sat in his chair and smiled as brightly as the sun, "You're back, I'm bored here." ”

Li Qiuchi raised his eyebrows, "Bored? She took out a piece of paper and handed it to Chu Jinrong, her voice was lazy, and her eyes showed tiredness, "Then help me calculate, I didn't calculate the result all night." ”

After Chu Jinrong took it, he blurted out after just looking at the answer: "Ninety-seven tables and chairs." ”

Li Qiuchi: "?! ”

She jerked her head back and asked him with difficulty, "How did you arrive at the answer?" ”

Chu Jinrong didn't answer, and after looking at it, he looked up and asked her suspiciously, "Is this the arrangement of tables and chairs?" Do you want to set up a banquet? ”

Li Qiuchi nodded, "Yes, Mrs. Ling Anhou said that her grandson is full moon, and she wants to hold a full moon banquet." ”

Chu Jinrong frowned, "Then I shouldn't have found you a newly opened restaurant...... he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, "She shouldn't want to take this opportunity to make you ugly?" ”

Li Qiuchi suddenly cried and laughed, "How come, I don't know her, she has no reason to harm me." And even if she had this idea, I wouldn't make a fool of myself, I had my own way of coping with it. ”

Only then did Chu Jinrong put his mind at ease, and then Li Qiuchi poked him with his elbow, "Then tell me quickly, why there are a total of ninety-seven tables and chairs." ”
