The private room on the second floor of the restaurant has always needed to be booked in advance, and there are also some people with status who will charter a private room for a long time to entertain distinguished guests, and the price is not cheap.

But there are three floors in total, and the second floor is mostly used by wealthy businessmen or some children of official families, and the real people with status are banquets on the third floor, just like the banquet held by Princess Suya before, which is to clear the third floor.

And all restaurants have an unwritten rule, unless a whole floor of the restaurant is covered, there will be one or two spare, easy not to use externally, in case there is a powerful person to come, but can not entertain and get into trouble.

Even if the Chen family has the support of the concubine and the prince, they dare not offend everyone.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, my cousin is getting more and more delicate, and I almost forget what you were like when you were in the village." Bai Xue, who was sitting on the main seat, smiled kindly when she saw Bai Wei coming in.

Bai Wei had a cold face, she didn't want to see Bai Xue since she was a child, so she naturally wouldn't give a good face.

It's just that if Bai Wei wants to break out of the world, she must have a backer.

Bai Xue's appearance can be said to have seized the opportunity, but Bai Wei also hesitated for a long time before deciding to come over.

"Our family has long been cut off from your family, don't call it so close. Tell me, what is the purpose of your calling me, don't beat around the bush. Bai Wei said impatiently.

"Haha." Bai Xue covered her mouth and laughed, "Didn't you also cut off relations with your family?" I don't have a mother's family now, and the two of us are sick and sympathetic. In this capital, money and power are indispensable. It's not easy for you and me to live, so why not join forces? ”

"Just because you are a concubine in the palace of the three princes, can you be considered rich or powerful?" Bai Wei sneered.

Although Bai Wei said this, she knew in her heart that although Bai Xue was looked down upon, it was still useful to use the name of the third prince.

It's just that Bai Wei didn't know what kind of person the third prince was, so she didn't dare to take risks for a while, but she had no choice.

"Yes, I guess my life is to be a concubine, but if the master spoils me, then I have the right. If the master can sit in that position one day, although I am not the most noble woman in the world, I am also a noble person who makes people bow down, maybe I can still rely on my mother and son. ”

Bai Xue was always smiling, poured a cup of tea and pushed it to Bai Wei, as if she couldn't see Bai Wei's contempt for her at all.

"Women, you still have to rely on men. But just by looking good, it's not a long-term solution after all, so I want to become a woman who can help the master. No matter what you want to stand on your own, you and I cooperate to be mutually beneficial, which is much better than you trying to win over those ladies. ”

Seeing that Bai Wei's face was not good-looking, Bai Xue lowered her voice and said: "Men want to have the skill of being a dragon, so that they can enjoy endless fame and fortune." But we women have enough money in our hands, and we have confidence no matter what time it is, and we are not afraid of having a bad time. ”

"Why do you think I'll believe you?" Although Bai Wei has such thoughts, she is very wary of Bai Xue.

"Because you and I are the same, there is no choice." Bai Xue shrugged her shoulders and said self-deprecatingly: "I don't have a mother's family that I can borrow, and I'm just a concubine at present, who would want to throw silver at me?" And you, a peasant girl, now have a family to return to, if you don't find a backer, are you sure you can keep your property? ”

Bai Wei's face changed, which was what she was most worried about.

The porter has already reported that there are always people hanging outside the gate lately, and it is bad to look at it.

But there is only one coachman and one porter in the house, and the rest are a few maids and mothers-in-law, if someone really beats her idea, Bai Wei can't deal with it at all.

But at this time, Bai Wei didn't dare to buy people anymore, for fear that she would buy a person with bad intentions, and she didn't know how she died.

"And the most important point, that is, Bai Ling, my biggest wish in this life is to live better than her, don't you want to?" Seeing that Bai Wei's expression was loose, Bai Xue gave the last bait.

Sure enough, Bai Wei's hesitant eyes were a little firmer, but she still said: "I will think about this matter carefully, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." ”

"I'm waiting for good news from my cousin." Bai Xue made a gesture of please and did not stop Bai Wei.

When Bai Wei left, Bai Xue's smile disappeared in an instant, and the hand on her knee was clenched into a fist.

"Let you hold it first, and when you have no use value, see how I clean up your little hooves!" Bai Xue gritted her teeth.

Bai Ling has been busy for several days before he can be free, and Shangguan Yu has not been free these days because he is in charge of peace matters with the princes.

The princesses of several countries were married to the children of the powerful ministers of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the marriage dates were all on the same day, so it was easy to go wrong, so they should be cautious.

After the marriage is over, it is the palace banquet.

The newlyweds who were given marriage should enter the palace to give thanks, and the emperor should also set up a palace banquet for the envoys of various countries to practice.

And the daughters of the ministers or county lords who have been canonized princesses will then enter the palace to prepare for marriage, and then the envoys of various countries will return to their own countries.

This series of things, in this era of underdeveloped communications, is enough for people to be busy and dizzy.

However, the bet contract with Mrs. Tobe Shangshu has also reached the date.

Bai Ling didn't plan to come to the door to ask, the market had already given up the gambling game, and Shangshufu didn't dare to use tricks in secret for the sake of fame.

"Girl, Mrs. Li came to thank you." Haitang quickly stepped into the flower hall and said in her ear: "Four boxes of thank-you gifts, and people also sprinkled copper coins along the way, saying that Boss Li is in good health, and everyone is happy." The descendants of the Li family also said all the way......"

"It's kind of interesting." Bai Ling pursed his lips after listening.

Everyone has an old man in the family, but the father-in-law is in good health, and the daughter-in-law is happy to be like this, and Mrs. Li will also get the name of filial piety.

And Mrs. Li's move is also tantamount to telling all the people in your circle that Bai Ling's jade has a miraculous effect, which is giving Bai Ling free publicity, but why not give Bai Ling a problem?

In the noble circle of the capital, there are many old ladies and old feudal monarchs, and if Bai Ling's jade is not sufficient, it will offend people.

Mrs. Li's behavior of seemingly forgetting the rules because of happiness is equivalent to handing Bai Ling a double-edged sword, and she can't help but accept it.

"Since Mrs. Li has come to give a thank you gift, you can go to the gambling house by the way, and get back all the silver we won, remember to bring it back with great fanfare." Bai Ling took a sip of the teacup, and said with a smile: "Let people also inform the eldest sister, don't let others go first, it's not good if the gambling house can't afford to pay the silver." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will go." It's rare to see some emotion on Begonia's face.

It's not that Begonia hasn't seen silver, but when she doesn't go on a mission, she makes money for the first time, and she still earns 90,000 taels.

This feeling...... Very excited.

"I have cultivated a money fan, it seems that I was born to do business, and I will cultivate talents in this area." didn't miss Begonia's subtle expression, Bai Ling said with a little smugness.

At this moment, Mrs. Li has already arrived at the door, smiling all the way, and she is carefully dressed, which makes people look like 'people are in good spirits when they meet happy events'.
