Chapter 106: Arrive in the capital

After admiring the appearance of Chunfeng Building, Gu Xiaoyou said to Zhou and the others, "Let's go in." ”

"Okay." The group followed Gu Xiaoyou into the door.

The running hall of Chunfeng Building came over to greet him and said enthusiastically: "A few guest officers, please, how many of them are going to eat in the hall or to the upstairs wing?" ”

"It's in the hall." Gu Xiaoyou said.

"Okay, please take a seat." The running hall brought the four of them to a window position.

This position can not only see the appearance of the Chunfeng Building, but also take in the scenery on the street, Gu Xiaoyou sat down very satisfied.

As soon as Gu Xiaoyou and the others sat down, they immediately presented the menu.

"Give me a roast rabbit leg from Chunfeng Lou and a few more specialties...... You guys for the rest. Gu Xiaoyou ordered a few dishes and pushed the menu in front of the Zhou family.

"No, that's enough." Zhou waved his hand and excused himself.

Boss Liu nodded and agreed: "Boss Gu has ordered so much, I'm afraid we won't be able to finish it." ”

"Alright, that's all." Gu Xiaoyou shrugged his shoulders and said to the running hall.

"Wait a minute, the guests will serve the food immediately." Ran Tang put away the menu and retreated.

Waiting for the time to serve the food, Gu Xiaoyou looked around at the decoration of Chunfeng Building.

Brown wood tables and chairs are arranged twice around the platform in the center of the lobby, and directly above the platform is a delicate large lantern, and a lantern is placed every one foot on the roof of the shed, illuminating the lobby.

The staircase leading to the second floor is on the far left side of the lobby, and you can see the wings on the second floor in front of the stairs with various screens to separate the upstairs and downstairs.

Gu Xiaoyou watched with interest, ran to the hall and brought the food, and the fragrant dishes quickly filled the table.

Sniffing the aroma of the dishes, Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile: "Let's eat." ”

She picked up the chopsticks and started towards the long-awaited roast rabbit leg, and when she saw Gu Xiaoyou moving the chopsticks, Zhou and the others started to eat.

"It's still a familiar taste." Gu Xiaoyou took a bite of the meat on the rabbit's leg and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Gu Xiaoyou picked up chopsticks and tore off a piece of meat from the rabbit leg and put it in the Liang'er bowl: "You can also taste it, roasted rabbit leg is a must." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Gu."

Liang'er ate the rabbit leg meat in the bowl into her mouth, chewed a few bites, and praised with wide eyes: "It's delicious." ”

"Eat more if it's delicious." Gu Xiaoyou tore off a few pieces of meat from the rabbit leg and sandwiched them into Zhou's bowl, as for Boss Liu, he took care of him.

When the four of them were eating happily, they suddenly heard the person at the next table say in a loud voice: "I thought how delicious the wine and food in Chunfeng Building were, but that's it." ”

Hearing such an unashamed speech, Gu Xiaoyou followed the prestige curiously.

I saw a man dressed like a nouveau riche sitting with a few flattering-looking people.

The nouveau riche man took a sip of wine: "In terms of eating, the Zhong family in the capital is still powerful, you have heard of Yunxiao Pavilion, the stewed bird's nest with golden silk and red dates in it is a delicacy in the world." ”

The people at the same table flattered and agreed: "You are so amazing, how can you have a chance to go to the capital, you can only have a meal with you in this Spring Breeze Building." ”

The nouveau riche man chewed a few bites of food, and said with a little disgust: "The restaurant in the small place is almost meaningless, but the Yunxiao Pavilion is delicious." ”

The words on his lips were disgusted, but the chopsticks in the hands of the nouveau riche man did not stop, and Gu Xiaoyou saw that he sandwiched all the dishes on the table, and ate more than anyone else.

"It's really honest." Gu Xiaoyou pursed her lips, retracted her gaze, and continued to eat her meal.

Half an hour later, Gu Xiaoyou came out of the Chunfeng Building satisfied, walked around Zhengyang City with the Zhou family, and returned to the inn to rest.

After resting in Zhengyang City for a night, Gu Xiaoyou and the others got back on the road, passing by a few towns and cities to stay overnight, and then continued their journey, just a few days later.

Inside the carriage.

Gu Xiaoyou lay listlessly on the mattress, thinking that she was just a dried salted fish.

Zhou sat on the side, embroidering flowers, as natural as sitting on a bed at home.

Gu Xiaoyou glanced at her lazily, and said enviously: "Sister Zhou, how did you hold on, I was about to vomit, and I felt that my soul was going to be taken away by the carriage." ”

"You are just squeamish, in the past in the village, we all rode in ox carts, and horse-drawn carts are much stronger than ox carts."

Zhou put down the needlework and embroidery shed, and sat down beside Gu Xiaoyou: "Your waist is uncomfortable, I'll rub it for you." ”

"Thank you, Sister Zhou." Gu Xiaoyou let out a long breath.

Zhou's movements gently rubbed her waist, Gu Xiaoyou closed her eyes, and she was about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, Boss Liu said to the car: "Boss Gu, we are going to the capital." ”

"Really?" Gu Xiaoyou suddenly came to his senses, Gu Xiaoyou stood up, lifted the curtain, and looked into the distance curiously.

I saw a towering city wall in the distance, flags flying in the wind, and a majestic city tower with flying eaves faintly.

"It turns out that the ancient capital was like this." Gu Xiaoyou muttered.

Looking at the scenery in front of him, Gu Xiaoyou suddenly couldn't wait, and couldn't help urging: "Boss Liu, hurry up." ”

"Okay, sit down." Boss Liu waved his horsewhip and sped up the speed of the car.

The sound of horses' hooves became hurried, and a gust of wind blew through the curtains, and in less than half an hour, the carriage arrived at the gate of the tower.

There was a long line at the gate of the city, and the guards checked them one by one, and the procession moved forward slowly.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at the progress of the team, looked at the sky again, and said anxiously: "At this rate, can you enter Beijing before dark?" ”

"It's almost time for the sun to go down." Boss Liu replied.

Gu Xiaoyou frowned when he heard this, lowered the curtain unhappily, and complained, "It's really slow." ”

The ancient guards were too slow to do things, and they didn't go through the security check as fast as they could.

"Don't worry, it's all come to this point, it's not a few hours away." Zhou comforted softly.

Gu Xiaoyou pouted unhappily, reached out to play with the sign hanging on his waist, suddenly thought of something, and patted his head.

"Look at my memory, I'm confused in the car."

Gu Xiaoyou took out a letter from his personal pocket, lifted the curtain and handed it to Boss Liu, and instructed, "You send the letter to the guards." ”

"Oh, good." Boss Liu was stunned for a moment, took the letter for some reason, jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the guards.

Gu Xiaoyou looked over and saw Boss Liu handing over the letter to the guard, the guard glanced at it casually, and when he saw the content of the letter, his eyes suddenly widened, the expression on his face became polite, and he said a few words to Boss Liu, and walked towards the carriage with a smile.
