Chapter 54: Ximen's family enters Beijing

The tavern was full of people, and Yue Wenqin gave Xiao Er a drink in front of his counter. Seeing Qiao Dayong come in, his original smiling face collapsed suddenly, especially when he saw the vegetable basket in his hand. Qiao Dayong came to him for nothing else, he must have studied today's menu.

"Boss, don't buy groceries, what do you want, just let me know. You're much more expensive than the food I bought. Yue Wenqin wanted to cry, he was still in charge of the Qiao family's purchasing, and he now regarded himself as a member of the Qiao family. expressed his deep contempt for Qiao Dayong's chaotic behavior.

"I'd love to!" Qiao Dayong smirked, "My daughter-in-law's favorite shepherd's cabbage was just seen in the market." The previous lady on the stove liked to wrap spring rolls and dumplings for her. However, the spring rolls are fried, and you can't eat a few dumplings. If you don't want to think about it, do something to let Qingqing taste it. ”

"Owner, shepherd's cabbage is a spring flower, you know, right? The ancestors said, 'Don't eat from time to time', do you know what it means? "Yue Wenqin wants to die, this person brought such a basket of vegetables that grew so densely, and it didn't grow normally at first glance.

"Chef Yue, this is a hot spring dish, it's expensive!" A wealthy businessman-like person on the side came over to check out, looked at the dishes and said, "Qiao Zhutou, you are really willing." ”

"No way, my daughter doesn't like to eat anything, I always want to try more and see what she likes to eat."

"Owner, you also know how picky your daughter is, this kind of dish, are you sure she can eat it?" Yue Wenqin held his face.

"What do you care about so much? Go to the idea and do it! Qiao Dayong glared at him and threw the basket on the counter.

Yue Wenqin looked at the basket of vegetables helplessly, and pinched a leaf and put it in his mouth. Think to yourself, "Forget it, it doesn't taste that bad." Alright, let's leave it here. ”

"Well, I'm back. By the way, did you deliver food to your home at noon? Qiao Dayong remembered something, and hurriedly turned around and asked.

"Oh, there are guests in the Lanzi room on the second floor, do you want to go and meet them." Yue Wenqin thought about it and pointed to the second floor.

Qiao Dayong raised his eyebrows and went upstairs with his hands behind his back.

In the blue room, there are He Shi, An An, and Qingqing in the dark by the window.

"Why do you want to go out?" Qiao Dayong sat beside his daughter.

"An An is so idle, his master has gone up the mountain to practice meditation again." Qingqing took a small glass of water and sipped warm orange juice.

"Your master doesn't want to take you again?" Qiao Dayong looked at An An with a smile.

"This time, the master wanted to take me, saying that I was losing weight, and I happened to go up the mountain to eat fast, so I didn't dare to go." An An doesn't like to walk, and he doesn't like to be a vegetarian. So as soon as he heard the master say that he would go up the mountain to eat fast, he immediately shook his head and ran home. Then he fooled Qingqing and took him out of the restaurant.

"Is our restaurant delicious?" Qiao Dayong liked An An very much, and asked casually.

"It's not what we eat at home." An An said happily.

"Because we eat home-cooked food at home, this is pavilion food. Even if it is the same dish, it is different in the restaurant, you see, this fried cake has the same pattern as our family, but when it is opened, the red bean paste in the bread is not powdered soybean sugar outside. Qingqing pointed to the fried cake near An'an. It's the same as at home, it's a fried moon flower, but there is no powdered sugar outside, so it looks even better.

"Why?" An An turned to Qingqing.

"Don't you think this looks good? Put powdered sugar to cover the flowers, how good it is now, cut it, the red bean paste inside is also very good, to put it simply, put the bean paste, it is easier to sell for money. ”

"So pavilion dishes are easier to sell for?" An An looked at the dishes on the table, and sure enough, they were all good-looking.

"Qingqing, do you like to eat?" Qiao Dayong saw that Qingqing's bowl was quite clean, and the dishes on the table were much less in the direction of An An and He's side, obviously, they were eating, and Qingqing was eating less.

"Brother Yue cooked a bowl of small wontons for her sister, and she couldn't eat anything else after she finished eating." An An pointed to a small soup bowl with soup on the side.

"When you're full, go back, right?" Qiao Dayong touched her hand, but it was still warm.

"Didn't you go to the Yamen? What do you think! ”

"It's fine." Qiao Dayong doesn't like to talk here.

"Did you let you go back?" An An said while holding the fried cake and biting it.

"Nope!" Qiao Dayong thought about it, and also reached out to take one, and took a bite, the bean paste was very dense, and it was flavored with honey, not sugar. It feels pretty good, "The ratio of glutinous rice to flour is relatively large, and it can be drawn when you bite it." ”

"You're getting better at eating." Qingqing smiled and gently grabbed her father's arm, "You are suspended, not dismissed." Now the adults still want to ask you to go back, but you can't save face, but I think it's going to be soon. ”

"Won't you go back?" Qiao Dayong didn't really want to talk about this.

"I'm waiting for someone!" Qingqing smiled at her father, "They're here, you should be reinstated." ”

"Waiting for whom?" Qiao Dayong glared at her.

"It's coming!" Qingqing pointed out the window.

The room on the second floor is opposite the south gate, and everyone who comes from the south will take this door. At this time, a familiar figure came down from the city gate building, Qiao Dayong frowned slightly, it was the west gate open.

A convoy came in from outside the city gate, and five small carriages entered from the outside, and about twenty people followed on horseback, but they all looked like subordinates.

The leading butler-like man jumped off his horse and nodded affectionately to Simon on one knee.

The carriage also stopped, and from their vantage point it was impossible to see what was going on in the car. However, Simon could be seen kneeling in front of the first carriage. But Simon didn't get into the car, and after greeting the first three cars, he also jumped on a horse and left with the car.

Qingqing kept staring at Ximen's movements until the convoy was out of sight from afar. Qingqing retracted her gaze and looked at An An, "Have you eaten well?" ”

"Can you go?" An An looked back and said vaguely.

"Hmm!" Qingqing smiled.

"How do you know that Simon's family is back today?" Qiao Dayong frowned.

"Lord Simon went home today, saying that the uncle is about to be reinstated, and his grandfather is coming back." An An hurriedly explained.

"So you ran out to see them come back? Why! ”

"Just look, An An, what do you see?"

"Spectrum! Three masters, five cars, three masters one car per person, and the two cars behind should be subordinates. He also brought eighteen guards. Cow! An An was still eating, and said while eating.

"You're so smart."

"What do you see?" Qiao Dayong looked at his daughter.

"The car doesn't look big, the appearance is very simple, but it's not big, and it's not as big as a master and a car? The third car should be Uncle Simon's wife. And Simon had a good relationship with his mother, and after he got on the horse, he was always by the side of the third car, and he was chatting with the man. Qingqing smiled lightly, "A simple car, an estranged family relationship, but there are so many guards, it's really interesting!" ”

"What are you waiting for them to do?" He frowned, she didn't like this family. The main reason is that the family actually wants to marry Qingqing, and when she thinks about it, she thinks that they will die.
