According to the tradition every year, the prefectural magistrate will invite the top ten to the prefectural government to participate in the banquet.

This year is no exception, the day after the case, the county magistrate sent an invitation to the top ten in the county exam.

After Cheng Linxiao's county test results came out, Chen Xiaoshu also breathed a sigh of relief, and today she deliberately went to one of the few big restaurants in Qitong County-Huiyue Building.

Hui Yue Lou is one of their big customers of Chen Ji Qiao's wife.

Huiyue Lou learned that Chen Xiaoshu, the owner of Chen Jiqiao's wife, had come in person, and hurriedly went downstairs to greet him.

Although she had already known from Shopkeeper Huang that Chen Jiqiao's owner was a young lady who had just passed her prime, when he really saw Chen Xiaoshu, he still couldn't suppress the shock in his heart.

Look at others, but a woman is so young, she has already laid down such a world with her bare hands, compared with Chen Xiaoshu, half of her life is like an empty life.

But Shopkeeper Xie quickly figured out that there are always some unusual people in this world. Compared with such a person, isn't that unpleasant for yourself?

"Oops! Mrs. Chen came over, so she didn't say anything in advance. ”

Shopkeeper Xie made a gesture of please and said.

Chen Xiaoshu smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Xie is too polite, who doesn't know that Huiyue Lou is one of the few restaurants in our Qitong County, and the taste of a few signature dishes is a must, and I am just greedy today, so I came to Shopkeeper Xie to try it." ”

Shopkeeper Xie heard Chen Xiaoshu praise their signature dishes of Huiyue Building, and said with a proud smile on his face: "Mrs. Chen, it's not me who is talking big, my reputation and status in Huiyue Building today depend on my signature dishes. ”

Shopkeeper Xie said and added: "There are also new signature dishes in our restaurant in the past two years, and there are more raw sauerkraut and white meat, and Mrs. Chen has provided such a good sauerkraut." ”

"Xie shopkeeper praised it, so that the practice of sauerkraut and white meat is simple, every household will do it in the past two years, and Long's restaurant restaurant will also do it, but it can't make the taste of Huiyuelou, it can be seen that the chef of Huiyuelou is good."

Chen Xiaoshu's words are true, two years ago, in order to promote sauerkraut, she made the practice of sauerkraut white meat and sauerkraut bone soup public, and these two dishes instantly captured the hearts of the people of Guangjian Province, and now almost every housewife will cook the dishes.

But if you want to say it's delicious, it has to be Huiyue Building.

Shopkeeper Xie smiled while instructing the little two in the store to serve some signature dishes.

Wait until the dishes come up one by one, there are meat and vegetarian, cold and hot.

Chen Xiaoshu, a foodie, couldn't help but feel very satisfied.

In particular, the signature dishes of crystal elbow, nine-turn large intestine, and stewed crucian carp are really a must.

She hopes to reach a deeper cooperation with Huiyue Lou, so that the chef of Huiyue Lou can develop more dishes related to their pickles, and in return, she will give the pickles to Huiyue Lou at a price that is almost cost price.

Of course, these are the ones that are developed, Chen Xiaoshu will not play all at once, but promote them every once in a while.

Shopkeeper Xie had never heard of such a way of cooperation, so he said: "Mrs. Chen is surprised, this matter is really extraordinary, can you let me think about it for a while." ”

Chen Xiaoshu nodded and said, "This is natural. ”

After coming out of Huiyue Building, Chen Xiaoshu went to the pickle shop again before returning to Gonghe Lane.

When he came back, it happened that Sheng Min was holding his youngest son and chatting with people in the alley.

"Mrs. Chen is back, this is Sister-in-law Lu, Sister-in-law Lu, this is Mrs. Chen I told you."

Sheng Min introduced.

Chen Xiaoshu looked at the woman who was talking to her, and saw that this woman was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a full moon face, red phoenix eyes, white skin, and always smiling at the corners of her mouth.

In fact, this sister-in-law Lu's appearance is not the best, but it is the most blessed kind in the eyes of people now.

Sister-in-law Lu smiled when she heard this: "It turns out that this is Mrs. Chen, I have heard Wanjun talk about you several times, and I only saw you today." ”

Only then did Chen Xiaoshu know that Sheng Min's maiden name was Wanjun, and it was really gentle and good-sounding, with a bookish atmosphere.

Chen Xiaoshu also smiled: "Although today is the first time I have met Sister-in-law Lu, I also feel that you are familiar with Sister-in-law Lu at first sight." ”

Chen Xiaoshu said and the three of them laughed.

"By the way, I heard Wanjun say that your family officials also took the county exam this year, I don't know how the exam went?"

Sister-in-law Lu asked, in fact, she saw Chen Xiaoshu's smile and no reluctance, and she knew that Chen Lin Xiaoshu's test must be good, so she asked deliberately.

Chen Xiaoshu smiled and said, "Luck is not bad, I got it." ”

Sheng Min smiled when he heard this: "Sister-in-law Lu, don't listen to her nonsense, is it bad luck to take the county case head?" ”

Sister-in-law Lu was really surprised this time, "The head of the county case?!" Oops, this is really a happy event, congratulations to Mrs. Chen, presumably Mrs. Chen will also be a lady in the future. ”

Chen Xiaoshu was a little embarrassed by what Sister-in-law Lu said, and said: "What is Sister-in-law Lu saying, this is just a small county test, my family officials have not even obtained the fame of a showman, if you want to talk about Mrs. Xuan, there is not a ready-made one in front of you." ”

Chen Xiaoshu said and looked at Sheng Min's with a smile on his face.

Sister-in-law Lu laughed when she heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, you are all Mrs. Fate." ”

After some chatting, Chen Xiaoshu roughly knew the situation of Lu's sister-in-law's family, the Lu family was in business and opened a pastry shop away from Gonghe Lane.

And Sister-in-law Lu is not only blessed, but also is indeed the life of a prince of Wangfu, I heard Sheng Min say that as soon as Sister-in-law Lu married into the Lu family, she gave birth to four grandchildren to the Lu family one after another, and since she got married, the family's business has been getting better and better, so she bought a house to live here.

Therefore, Sister-in-law Lu's mother-in-law has always liked Sister-in-law Lu very much.

The three of them were chatting happily, because the three of them had rough mothers-in-law cooking at home, and there were no elders in the family who set rules, so they chatted outside for a while.

When dinner was about to be ready, a donkey cart drove into Gonghe Lane, and Chen Xiaoshu recognized at a glance that it was the donkey cart that stopped at the left door of her house that day.

Seeing the two donkey carts coming in, Sheng Min and Sister-in-law Lu both subconsciously frowned.

Sheng Min pulled her even more and said, "Let's not get in the way of lifting people's mothers." ”

There was this deep disgust and dislike in his tone.
