Chapter 216: Passing the Word
In March of the second year of Qingyuan, the emperor got married, and the daughter of the household servant was hand-picked as the queen, and the household servant's mansion was promoted to the national abbot's mansion. There are also several daughters in the family who have been promoted to the mansions of noble concubines, and they have also raised their eyebrows for a while on this spring day.
The upstart appeared, and some people who were good at dancing in the officialdom with long sleeves would inevitably treat them to the east. Some of those who have escaped prison because of the amnesty have also been forced to celebrate their new lives.
In short, Zuixianglou, as one of the best restaurants in Chang'an City, is also extremely busy in this spring! Cheng Xiangjin, as the young owner of the restaurant, has stayed in the restaurant for many days and has never returned home.
Helping Aji and the others wipe the last table and chairs and set them up, the Gan sisters dragged their tired bodies to Cheng Xiangjin's side. Looking at Cheng Xiangjin, who was still buried in the account book, the two sisters were simply suffering!
"Girl, the guys are all packed up and ready to close, we should go back to the house tonight, right?"
Cheng Xiangjin was stunned with an abacus hand, and then suddenly realized that a day had passed again! Counting the days, it is true that there are many days when I have not been home. It's really time to go back and check it out!
But looking down at the account book that had not yet been checked, Cheng Xiangjin couldn't help but feel a little supportive!
I didn't expect counting silver to be such a tiring job! If you keep busy, I guess it's time to hire a bookkeeper!
Seeing that she was stunned, Ganlu shouted again in fear, "Girl? ”
With this shout, Cheng Xiangjin really came back to his senses. looked at the girl who was already full of vegetables, and finally put down the ledger in her hand and stood up.
"Let's go, go home!"
In the carriage back, the Gan sisters were extremely excited, chattering all the way.
I didn't know what I remembered, and suddenly there was no sound.
Cheng Xiangjin, who was listening to the carriage, raised his eyelids when he saw this.
"What's wrong? Why not? ”
Ganlu glanced at Ganyu, saw Ganyu's eyes, scratched her head, and smiled, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a joke of the people who come to the restaurant to eat!" If the girl doesn't listen, don't listen! ”
Seeing this, Ganyu also nodded sharply, "That's it, that's it!" Some concessions, don't mention it! ”
Cheng Xiangjin looked at their sisters suspiciously, I don't know what these two people are thinking about, they always feel mysterious!
Early the next morning, just as I was about to go to the restaurant, I saw Cheng Furao's eldest maid Ying'er outside the door, and it seemed that she had been standing for a long time, as if she was waiting for her to go out!
For some reason, Cheng Xiangjin was inexplicably a little weak-hearted!
"Girl, Madame specially asked the slave and maid to come and pass the word!"
Cheng Xiangjin smiled weakly, "What did my mother say, Sister Ying'er!" ”
Ying'er seemed to have figured out Cheng Xiangjin's temperament a long time ago, and shouted at her so that Ying'er's sister's face did not change at all.
"Madam, she knows that the girl has been busy with the affairs of the restaurant lately, and it is difficult to take time off from other things, and she does not blame the girl. However, tomorrow there will be a distinguished guest visiting the house, and the lady explained that the girl will return to the house tonight no matter how busy she is. If you don't go home before tomorrow morning, Mrs. will personally pick up people from Zuixiang Building! ”
When Cheng Xiangjin heard this, he immediately frowned.
She didn't like it the most! Especially some of the ladies and sisters who are good friends with my mother, getting along with them is even more boring than planning a plate at the counter alone!
Seeing that she was silent, Ying'er changed back to her usual sweet appearance when she smiled.
Madame knew that the girl did not like such occasions the most, and when she heard it, she would definitely rack her brains to find a way to shirk it. However, the slave maid felt that the girl should obediently listen to her husband's words this time. ”
"Why? Sister Fei Ying'er knows who the distinguished guest who will come to the door tomorrow is? ”
