Chapter 107: Deliberation
The group walked towards Hanhua Building, and all the way Xiao Yu was talking about how powerful and amazing the uncle was just now.
"I want to practice martial arts hard in the future, and be as powerful as him." Xiao Yu said yearningly, and even Wang Tiandong on the side nodded.
"I don't know the honorific names of the two benefactors just now? He saved his sister and Yu'er, and left without hurrying to thank him. Xiao Han regretted that he had never seen his benefactor regret, and he didn't know who his name was, and he didn't know how to thank him.
"They, one is my cousin, Shi Tingyu, and the other is Xia Wu is my brother." Xia Xiaoba said.
From the time the prince of Dingguo Hou was established as the prince, he selected the eight best young men in the clan as the prince's personal guards, and finally took effect until his death.
"Uncle Xiaoba, you just said that he is your fourth cousin, so how many cousins do you have, and Uncle Xia Wu, your name is Xiaoba, is it really the eighth." Xiao Yu asked.
"Hehe, there are a lot of brothers in our family." Xia Xiaoba laughed, and called the prince the fourth cousin, or was he in a hurry, the identity of the prince should not be made public, otherwise where would he dare to call the prince a brother, and he would have committed the following crimes.
As for the brothers in the family, there are too many, Xia Xiaoba calculated carefully, well, it is really a bit much, except that the eight of them are the personal guards of the prince, there are many cousins in the family.
Since the first ancestor of the Xia family did the personal guard of the Marquis Mansion of Dingguo, their Xia family has served the Hou Mansion for generations, and has developed from a small family to a big family for hundreds of years.
Qionghualou's business is as usual, business is booming, Xiao Ming was seen by Duan Yan who happened to be seeing off guests at the door when he entered, his face was happy, Duan Yan was busy walking a few steps to meet the people, and his attitude was courteous and thoughtful.
"Doctor Xiao, Xiao Gongzi, Xia Gongzi, and Xiao Xiaogongzi came to Qionghua Building, and they were disappointed." Duan Yan politely led a few Xiao Ming and the five people into the restaurant, and greeted the guys who ran the hall: "Hurry up and go to the kitchen to get a few bowls of cold sour plum soup, and tell the kitchen to hurry up, make the signature dishes in our store, and ask Dr. Xiao and a few people to taste them."
Duan Yan's shouting alarmed the diners in the hall on the first floor, and they all raised their heads to see who had such a background, so that Duan Yan, the little steward of Qionghua Building, greeted him so politely.
Oh, it turned out to be a few boys, I don't know whose son-in-law it is.
Duan Yan didn't care about other people's strange eyes, and then said to Xiao Ming enthusiastically and cordially: "A few people are tired of coming to the city to play, hurry up and enter Biyun Yarn to cool down, cool down, drink a bowl of sour plum soup, and relieve the heat." “
Joke, yesterday the young master gave him a heavy explanation, he wanted to entertain Xiao Ming well, no matter what she asked, she agreed to all of them, you must know that Xiao Ming can be regarded as their Qionghualou's food and clothing parents. Without the vegetables provided by Xiao Ming's family, their Qionghua Building would not have the status it has today.
Xia Xiaoba's eyes lit up when he looked satisfied, well, even if you know each other, it's not in vain that we pick vegetables for you every day.
Coming into the top private room of Qionghua Building, Xiao Ming and the others suddenly felt a cool breath, and when they looked around, it turned out that there were ice basins in the four corners of the walls, compared to the scorching outside, it was really enjoyable to stay here.
Xiao Yu and Wang Tiandong were jumping and jumping in the cool room, playing around happily.
"It's cool." Xiao Yu was so comfortable leaning on the railing to look at the street scene below, pointed to the square in front and said, "Tiandong, come and see, you can see the square in front." “
Looking in the direction of Xiao Yu's finger, you can indeed see the place where they just watched the performance, but unfortunately there is no wonderful acrobatic performance there.
"Yu'er, come over Tiandong, be careful of falling." Xiao Han shouted.
Duan Yan personally picked up the sour plum soup sent by the guy at the door, and greeted: "Doctor Xiao, a few sons and daughters, drink some chilled sour plum soup to go to the heat, this weather is so hot." “
Put the sour plum soup in front of every guest, Duan Yan exited the room with a very eye-catching look, "A few people talk slowly, the little one goes down first, and you can call the guy at the door if you have something." “
"Thank you." Xiao Ming thanks, this treatment is also too good, the presidential suite is well-served, and you don't have to order the dishes yourself.
Take a small peck when you take it, the taste is really good, sweet and sour, cold and delicious, I can't help but call Xiao Yu and Wang Tiandong, who refuse to leave the balcony railing.
"Yu'er, come over and drink sour plum soup in winter."
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yu heard that there was something delicious, he immediately came over, and Wang Tiandong followed behind him like a little follower.
"He listens to you, and I don't even listen to him." Xiao Han looked at Xiao Yu and Wang Tiandong, who were obediently drinking sour plum soup.
"You, they follow you every day, and you still care about me." Xiao Ming took a small bite of the sour plum soup, and looked at Xiao Han's taste funny.
"How can that be the same." Xiao Han said in a low voice, following him every day but not listening to him, he stopped squeaking, lowered his head and drank it intently, sweet and sour to quench his thirst and cool down.
"Kong Lin, this restaurant is good." Xia Xiaoba said, he didn't rush to speak when he entered the door, but looked around, it was very similar to the decoration style in the capital, it seemed that Kong Lin still put a lot of thought into it.
In a short time, the dishes were served one after another, and as they were yesterday, the whole table was filled, and they overlapped even if they could not be put down.
"Wow, that's so good." Xiao Yu looked at the dishes on the table and exclaimed, it was really fragrant, but he didn't rush to move the chopsticks in the face of such a sumptuous and delicious dish.
In the face of such a sumptuous dish, everyone couldn't hold back for a long time, Xiao Ming picked up the chopsticks first, picked up a piece of chicken for Xiao Yu, and then said, "Let's go." “
I didn't want a few people to be happily dining, Xiao Ming said what she had always planned in her heart.
"Xiaohan, how about adding a few people to our family." Xiao Ming asked.
"Add people." Xiao Han paused.
"It's good to buy people, and the slaves you buy are obedient and reliable." Xia Xiaoba swallowed the food in his mouth and agreed, he had already suggested that Xiao Ming add a few more people to his family, just a few of them in the family, get up in the morning to practice martial arts, pick vegetables and water, and then go to the town to study, tired like a dog.
Although they bought Wang Yunling and Wang Tiandong's two sisters and brothers, it is a pity that the two are too young to do anything, especially when their family has repaired a house recently, people come and go all day long, and there are too many idle people, and they often secretly go to the orchard to steal fruits, the orchard is too big to prevent.
"Well, it's good to buy a few." Xiao Han thought about it and nodded, he had to practice martial arts and study every day, and the affairs at home were really inadequate.
"I thought about it, I have to add people to the kitchen to help cook, clean the yard, and choose a scholar for you, and I have to choose someone to come out to guard the fruit, and the fruit is about to ripen." Xiao Ming calculated carefully and said what needed to be added.
Most of the work at home is done by the godmother, and it is really hard for her.
"Well, I have to buy a girl to serve my godmother." Xiao Han nodded.
"That's right." Xiao Ming bowed.
