Chapter 111: Fraud
"Dad, do you know about the poisoning of Yixiangfang before?" After all, it is his father, where is it good to ask directly, Song Qing can only knock on the side.
"That's an internal problem of Yixiangfang, and it has nothing to do with us." Lord Song replied very lightly. "Why are you asking this, you still have to find a way to restore Pinxuan Pavilion to its former prosperity."
"It's okay, I suddenly remembered." From Lord Song's tone, Song Qing could tell that he knew about this matter, but he deliberately pretended not to know, and deliberately let himself focus on dealing with Yixiangfang.
Song Qing has always felt that his father is a bright and upright person, but he didn't know that there was this side, and it was difficult to pretend to be a loving father on weekdays. But Song Qing had no choice, he was born in the Song family, so he was obliged to share everything for the Song family, including restoring Pinxuan Pavilion to its former appearance.
Song Qing followed his father's instructions and prepared a big gift for Mu Li, but Song Qing did not send it in person, because he had not yet received an answer to the matter discussed with Mu Li, and he didn't want the two of them to be embarrassed to meet.
"Whose thing is this, what is it doing at the gate of the palace?" Liuyun and Chu Lingyi just came back and saw that it was a big box, and they were very curious.
"It was sent by someone from the Song family, saying that it was for the princess."
"To the Princess? There is no happy event in the house, which door to give. Chu Lingyi was also very puzzled, but he still ordered someone to carry the box to Mu Li.
Chu Lingyi came back, and the guards at the door of Mu Li's room left automatically.
"Sister-in-law, I told my friends in the palace that your milk tea is super delicious, but they don't believe it, you have to do more this time so that I can take it back." Chu Ziyi, a snack goods, pestered Mu Li to make him more milk tea.
Chu Lingyi heard Chu Ziyi's voice from afar, pushed the door in and said, "The thirteenth brother is also here." And let the subordinates carry the things sent by the Song family into Mu Li's room.
"Fifth brother, what kind of good things have you prepared for the imperial sister-in-law, those who see it have a share." Chu Ziyi couldn't wait to open the box.
Mu Li stared at the big box in front of him with some curiosity, thinking in his heart that it would be difficult for him to get the precious medicinal materials from where he wanted to give me supplements. I don't want to be a medicine jar at a young age, and I want to live a few more years, so I can't give something else.
"This was sent by the Song family and placed at the door."
"It can't be that Pinxuan Pavilion?" Chu Ziyi's eyes widened, and his original curiosity was stifled again. The things of the Song family are not uncommon to him, but they are the enemies who framed his imperial sister-in-law, and he categorically cannot accept their gifts. "Imperial sister-in-law, you can't ask for it, there must be fraud."
Chu Lingyi didn't think it was necessary, the Song family didn't dare to go against the palace so blatantly, unless he wanted to find death. However, Chu Lingyi was also quite curious, and wanted to see what the Song family could send, it couldn't be silver. Everyone who is an official knows that Chu Lingyi is not in oil and salt, and he is extremely reluctant to bribe, and the Song family will not be stupid to this point.
"Open it and take a look." With Mu's experience of leaving Yixiangfang, he felt that it seemed to be a pastry, and a burst of cake smell wafted out faintly through the gap.
Liuyun opened the box, and sure enough, as Mu Li expected, it was full of all kinds of pastries, and it was still hot. But apart from the pastries, the bottom layer of the box is actually the basic books. Mu Li opened it and saw that it was actually the method of making pastries and precautions.
"It seems that the intention of cooperation is quite sincere." Mu Li nodded as he flipped through the books. Every step of pastry making is clearly recorded on it, and even the steaming heat is written. It can be seen that it is not unreasonable that Pinxuan Pavilion has been extremely popular for more than ten years.
"It's all stupid, sister-in-law, this is insulting you, you make a lot more delicious than theirs." Chu Ziyi glanced at the pastries in the box with disdain, and next to Mu Li, he also wanted to read the contents of the books.
As the thirteenth master who is favored in the palace, he naturally doesn't understand the work of the back kitchen. I only know the words on it, but I don't know how to do it.
"This is a good thing, people have shown their family background, this cooperation can be tried." It is undeniable that the materials and dosage of Pinxuan Pavilion are quite strictly controlled, no wonder the taste is also very classic, and the reason why Pinxuan Pavilion will lose to Yixiangfang is that it will not innovate and change its tricks. Of course, Mu Li's pastries can't be made in Pinxuan Ge's life, because Mu Li is a person from the future.
"I have no opinion on you cooperating with the Song family, but I am afraid that you will suffer if you are a person of the Song family." Chu Lingyi knew that Mu Li's greatest love now was to run Yixiangfang well, and Chu Lingyi raised his hands in favor of this matter. But he was worried that a talkative person like Mu Li would fall into the Song family's hands, so don't lose his wife and soldiers when the time comes.
"What are you afraid of, I don't have you here." Mu Li naturally slapped Chu Lingyi's chest gently, just like an unintentional intimate gesture between two young lovers.
"Imperial sister-in-law, and me, if they dare to bully my imperial sister-in-law, I will definitely make them look good." Mu Li occupies a big place in Chu Ziyi's heart, not only the imperial sister-in-law, but also his family, and the master who can make pastries for her.
"Look at you, I'm afraid you're thinking about my delicious food." Mu Li put away the books that made pastries, this is a treasure, she can use the above to improve, so as to increase the variety and taste of Yixiangfang.
Seeing Mu Li's smile, Chu Lingyi's heart was also relieved, and he also had a knot in his heart because of the assassin's incident last night. It's just that he hasn't found out about the assassin yet, so he still has some apprehension in his heart.
Originally, Lord Song asked Song Qing to send jewelry, and women were always more interested in jewelry, but Song Qing felt that Mu Li was not the kind of person. Taking the jewelry will only make Mu Li hate him even more and hate the Song family. Therefore, Song Qing took it upon himself to give Mu Li the pastry making method in the collection.
"Let's go, I'll take you to my store for a while." Mu Li looked at Chu Lingyi, a person like Mu Li, who was used to being free, was really not suitable for squatting at home. In addition, it has not opened for most of the day, and it has already lost a lot of money.
"Let Liuyun go with you, I'm more relieved."
"Could it be that you are afraid that I will abduct and sell the imperial sister-in-law?" Chu Ziyi, a naughty ghost, is becoming more and more out of shape when he speaks, and he is afraid that he is also affected by Mu Li.
"That's not the case, I'm afraid that your imperial sister-in-law will abduct you."
Mu Li glanced at Chu Lingyi and went out of the room with Chu Ziyi. She inhaled sharply and followed her trachea to her heart and lungs. Sure enough, the air outside was good, and the room was about to suffocate her.
Mu Li was in a good mood, humming pop songs along the way, and beating by himself. Chu Ziyi on the side had a strange look on his face, his imperial sister-in-law was really different, and there was always a sense of freshness between her gestures.
