Chapter 13 Lu Daxia
Early the next morning, Yipinxiang's door opened as usual, Fang Dacang and Ruan Mianmian wiped the tables and chairs in the hall, Uncle Hua was chopping vegetables and hot oil in the kitchen, and Jiang Xinyue accompanied Mu Ruqing to quietly leave Yipinxiang and go to the Anyang Hou Mansion, everyone tacitly understood as if what happened last night had not happened.
In a big mansion not far from Yipinxiang, there was also a small servant who opened the door at this time.
Outside the door, there was a man dressed in a black suit, who seemed to be standing casually, but his waist was straight, and he could see the profundity of martial arts at a glance.
He looked like a teenager, fair-skinned, a little more beautiful than ordinary girls, and his eyes were crooked when he smiled, innocent and harmless, and warm and bright.
He saw that someone inside opened the door, took two steps, and beckoned to the little guy with a smile: "Come here, is the master awake?" If you wake up and report it, I have something to say. ”
The little guy seemed to have known this person for a long time, and arched his hand: "Lu Daxia, wait a minute, the little one will go and report it." Then he turned around the screen wall and went into the courtyard.
This Lu Daxia easily climbed onto a big tree outside the courtyard, picked for a while, then broke a branch, took it in his hand and gestured a few times before jumping to the ground satisfied.
So Lu Daxia just... Squatted on the ground and began to draw, but his painting skills were really not very good, a bunch of lines were disorganized, and he could barely see that it was a round turtle shape, and after the painting, the little guy who went in to inform him just came out and signaled him to go in, so Lu Daxia threw the branch casually, got up and walked into the yard.
The little guy looked down at the turtle pattern on the ground, but suddenly he was shocked, it turned out that the branch thrown by Lu Daxia was impartially tied to the trunk of the tree at this time, and most of it did not enter the trunk.
Lu Daxia walked through several doors to the inner courtyard, and saw the man in a gorgeous silk dress sitting in the pavilion with a pot of tea drinking himself.
"Lu Gui pays a visit to His Royal Highness the King of Qi." Lu Daxia lifted his robe and knelt on one knee, but the smile on his face did not change.
"Get up, what's the matter early in the morning?" The king of Qi has a pair of phoenix eyes with narrow eyes, the tails of his eyes are raised, and the contours of his face are not soft, giving people a fierce feeling.
"Has Your Highness had breakfast?" Lu Gui grinned.
"I've used it, I'll have someone prepare one for you." King Qi's face was not obvious, he only clapped his hands slightly, and the eunuch standing on the side went down to pass the word.
"Thank you, Your Highness, I went to Yipinxiang last night, and guess what?" Lu Gui showed a funny expression.
"Just went back to Beijing to see it? I have to let you keep an eye on it in the future, and I always feel uneasy about others. King Qi motioned for Lu Gui to sit opposite.
"I really can't rest assured, maybe I don't have to go in the future, if you want me to say that your house is really unreliable, I have read the news these days, and I said that there is nothing unusual, but yesterday I went to take a look, that thing is probably no longer there, and the tree has passed." Lu Gui restrained his smile and looked at King Qi quietly with a pair of eyes.
"What? Something is gone? Can you be sure? King Qi's eyes instantly sharpened, but there was no other movement, his fingers grabbed the edge of the table, and his bones turned white.
"I'm afraid that there are only two of us in this world who know the news, and the tree has grown seamlessly for decades, and people who don't know it, even if they put their eyes on it, they can't see the difference, because of this, if someone moves, it will definitely not be able to return to its original state." Lu Gui paused, "When I went to see it yesterday, that piece of bark was cut off in a boxy piece, although it was re-glued and deliberately camouflaged, but I could see it. ”
"If that thing is born again... I'm afraid..."King Qi's face turned pale, and he threw out the teapot in his hand, the teapot smashed on the wall and exploded, and the cyan tea was poured on the gray wall, mottled.
"It's likely that something was discovered by the people of that restaurant, but as for whether it will flow out, it's hard to say, smart people should know the truth of Huaibi's crime, since a few civilians in that restaurant can win the lawsuit arranged by King Qi, it means that he is not a stupid person." Lu Gui said it with a smile, as if he was not afraid of the majesty of King Qi.
"Hmph, it's just a crooked way, if it doesn't flow out, then it's better to keep doing it, find a reason to check them together, and then search carefully, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to get it." King Qi remembered the things he had arranged before, and his heart was even more angry.
"Maybe you can find it this way, but if you suddenly attack a group of civilians you don't know before, will they not find out?" Lu Gui whispered, stretching out a finger and pointing to the sky.
"He? Talent and morality are so mediocre, crawling out of that slut's belly and easily sitting in that position to press me, sooner or later I..." King Qi dusted his sleeves in disgust.
Lu Gui waved his hand lightly, put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent movement, King Qi understood, and stopped talking.
In the blink of an eye, a few maids lightly brought all kinds of breakfast and placed them on the small table, the style was simple but not exquisite. So Lu Gui picked up the bamboo chopsticks and concentrated on eating.
"Lu Daxia eat first, you can walk around this courtyard at will, and I'll go back to the house to deal with some things." King Qi had already put away his emotions just now, and even his eyes became easy-going, and he got up and was about to leave.
"The prince walks slowly." Lu Guizheng was biting a piece of crystal shrimp dumpling without even raising his head.
King Qi walked out of the pavilion and turned his head again: "Yipinxiang over there, I have to let you watch, if there is any emergency, you can adapt to it, you don't have to come back and forth to me." “
"I heard that their family made some hot pot, so I'll try it another day." Lu Gui swallowed the bun in his mouth, raised his head and smiled, a mouthful of white teeth shining in the sun. Only then did King Qi relax and leave with his entourage.
The ornate carriages marched through the streets, and the people avoided them, and the silver bells on the tall saddles made a string of jingling bells with the raised hooves of the horses.
The carriage was also inlaid with gold and jade, and even the incense was filled with luxurious smoke, and in this incense mist, King Qi could not see any expression on his face.
"Master, that Lu Gui is really too rude, how can he be so disrespectful!" A man dressed as a butler knelt in the corner of the carriage, and his low-eyed appearance was not the person who accompanied King Qi in the teahouse opposite Yipinxiang?
"It's because he does things entirely by his own heart that I feel at ease to use him, it doesn't matter if he looks uninhibited, as long as we don't offend him, he can still help us a lot. King Qi rubbed the jade string in his hand with his fingertips and squinted his eyes.
"The prince is far-sighted, and the little one admires." The man bowed his back deeply and said no more.
On Mu Ruqing's side, he and Jiang Xinyue went to the Anyang Hou Mansion lightly, and the little guy who watched the door went in and reported that Mu Ruqing was directly introduced into the Anyang Hou study.
The study room was full of ink, there were many elegant scrolls hanging on the walls, a few blue peacock feathers were inserted in the jade bottle, and An Yanghou was standing behind the table.
"Dude, you're going to enjoy it, tsk, it's extravagant." Mu Ruqing laughed and teased.
"It's all vassal, I'm not good at calligraphy, I can't draw, my eldest daughter likes it tightly, and I only use this study to talk about things." Anyang Hou is still kind. Mu Ruqing gave Anyang Hou a look, Anyang Hou understood, and waved away the little maid and the maid, and only Mu Ruqing, Jiang Xinyue and Anyang Hou were left in Nuoda's study.
As for what the three of them plotted, there was no way to know, only that when Mu Ruqing went out, his expression was much more relaxed than when he came, as if he had put down a big stone.
A jade seal symbolizing power, just appeared and touched the hearts of many people, some people are afraid of being dragged into the whirlpool, some people covet it, and they have to sigh a sentence of creation to make people.
Just after noon, Yipinxiang ushered in a wave of dining peaks, many people laughed with each other and walked in, Yipinxiang was also lively. Ruan Mianmian and Fang Dacang ate and served food one by one, and they were very busy.
Ruan Mianmian still eats a fragrant signature hot pot today, but the bottom of the pot is replaced with mushroom soup, and some warm and tonic herbs are added, which is the characteristics of nourishing qi and nourishing the body, beautifying and nourishing the skin, and the original fragrance of the food is stimulated, which immediately makes the onlookers eager to try.
When the audience hulala entered the store to order, Ruan Mianmian noticed a person standing straight not far away. His soft eyes are like Mu Ruqing's, with a cheerful smile on his face, looking sunny and refreshing, but he is a rare beautiful young man, this person is Lu Gui who has just come from the courtyard of King Qi.
Ruan Mianmian rarely saw a man whose appearance and temperament were comparable to Mu Ruqing's, so he was a little stunned, and his face seemed to be infected by his smile, revealing shallow dimples.
Lu Gui walked up to Ruan Mianmian, leaned down slightly and shook his hand in front of her: "What a cute sister, are you eating and broadcasting?" ”
Ruan Mianmian woke up at this time, and nodded with his signature smile: "Hehe, I'm a food broadcaster, are the customers here to eat?" Today's signature is mushroom soup hot pot, a big supplement, can customers try it? ”
"Hot pot, bring me one." Lu Gui looked at the remaining ingredients and soup pot in front of Ruan Mianmian, and the rich aroma made him, who had eaten all the food, a little excited.
Ruan Mianmian happily replied with a happy "hey", looked back at the Fang cannon in the hall, he was so busy at this time that his feet didn't touch the ground, so he didn't call him out to greet him, and now that he had just finished eating and broadcasting, she simply led Lu Lu back to the second floor in person, and found a refreshing and clean private room to bring him in.
She took out a piece of paper from the small basket hanging behind the door, which was a fragrant recipe copied by Mu Ruqing herself, handed it to Lu Gui, and took a pair of dishes and chopsticks and put it away: "The guest will see what he wants, tell me directly, we also have another gift of rice wine and tea, by the way, my name is Ruan Mianmian, and the guest will look for me if there is anything missing." ”
Ruan Mianmian not only has a set of meals, but also has learned to entertain guests with Fang Dacang for so long, and she is even more meticulous and thoughtful, and the guests also like to see her hands and feet are quick and delicate, many customers even have to take a look at Ruan Mianmian every time they come, and they simply take care of her as a sister, and even the extra reward is more than Fang Cannon.
"Well, give me a portion of the dishes on this except cabbage, don't your hot pot have any other flavors except for spicy and mushroom soup? I want to eat sweet hot pot. Lu Gui glanced at the menu and raised his head with a smile.
"I'm afraid..." Before Ruan Mianmian could say a word "no", Lu Gui took out a silver ingots from the purse on his waist and put it on the table.
"Of course, of course, we try our best to be satisfied, I'll go and let people serve the food first, and you wait." Ruan Mianmian's eyes flashed with silver light, and he ran downstairs as he spoke. Lu Gui looked at Ruan Mianmian's back as he went downstairs, and the smile on his face became brighter.
"Cannon! The guest in the No. 2 private room upstairs wants all the dishes except cabbage, you serve him food first, and I will go find Uncle Hua! When passing by the lobby, Ruan Mianmian shouted at the cannon without looking back.
Fang Dacang was a little funny in his heart, this little girl was in a hurry, I don't know what good things are going on.
