Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Touch of Sadness
Two days later, Su Jin moved out of the Prince's Mansion after opening the hot pot shop.
Cheng Zhao has also been very busy in the past two days, he has been serving in the palace, probably the emperor's illness is really not good, Cheng Zhao did not dare to leave, and he lived in the palace to take care of him in the palace for the past two days.
Su Jin's hot pot shop had just opened, and it was relatively busy, and there were not enough people, so she simply moved to live in the hot pot shop, and she was busy taking care of the newly opened shop day and night.
Of course, she didn't have time to think about Seungzhao's choice. Maybe it's a bit of an escape, she just wants Seungzhao to follow her heart and make the most correct judgment.
She hoped that if Chengzhao still chose to marry her, she would not have a concubine. Then, she hopes that after Chengzhao makes such a choice, she will not regret it in the future.
Of course, she herself doesn't want to influence or persecute Cheng Zhao, feelings are what you love and I want, and marriage needs to be even more so. Therefore, she hopes that Seungzhao will make the most correct choice. lest both of them regret it in the future.
Because of his previous life, there are too many such examples around Su Jin. For example, her divorced parents, such as her divorced colleagues.
Anyway, if the marriage is about to end, it will be a harm to the two people and the children in the future.
Su Jin didn't want to do this.
The hot pot shop has just opened, although there are some trivial things to be busy, but because many people don't understand what it does, and they haven't eaten it. Therefore, on the opening day, Su Jin waived a table in order to attract customers. Eat for free.
Master Hu, who was in charge of the kitchen, was introduced by Master Zhang from the Prince's Mansion, and he was a little worried that Su Jin would waste ingredients like this, so he treated him for free.
He said, "Boss Su, wouldn't it be good to eat for free like this?"
Su Jin smiled and waved his hand: "In two days, we will earn back all the free meals today." The restaurant is open is a taste and reputation, our price is fair, and the taste is good, I believe that after today's free once the number of guests will increase, the effect will be good. ”
Seeing Su Jin's vow, Master Hu stopped talking, he glanced at the lobby from the window, and it was all full. The guests enjoyed their meals and were full of praise for the delicious dishes.
Some people praised it, and they did today's exemption, and the business should be good in the future.
Master Hu figured it out, so he smiled and said, "Okay, listen to Boss Su."
Su Jin smiled, because of the increase in guests, Su Jin said: "Let's make the price fair, just do the quantity enough."
"Hmm," Master Hu nodded.
Outside, Xiao Er came to Su Jin and said, "Shopkeeper, Lord Zhang and the county lord are here."
Su Jin nodded, she didn't expect Zhang Liwen and the county lord of Yunzhou to come over, and decided to greet the two in person.
Zhang Liwen and Xia Yulan, the county lord of Yunzhou, were taken to the private room on the second floor, and they also brought gifts over, and Su Jin asked Xiao Er to accept them.
Xia Yulan said: "Miss Su, I originally wanted to go to the Prince's Mansion to find you, but I didn't expect them to say that you moved here."
Su Jin smiled: "Well, the store has just opened here, and it is relatively busy, so it is more convenient to live in the store."
Zhang Liwen looked at Su Jin and asked suspiciously, "Why did you move out of the Prince's Mansion?" Is it really as you say, because the store is busy? ”
Su Jin smiled: "What? Don't believe me? Mr. Zhang didn't see me, is this store really busy? ”
Zhang Liwen looked at her, Su Jin's face was not good, he was a little tired, and his mental state was not good, he thought of Prince Chengzhao. See you in the next few days, it's like this.
Zhang Liwen remembered that Su Jin said before that if she left Chengzhao one day and moved out of the Prince's Mansion, it would definitely be that Chengzhao would no longer need her.
He sighed, and he didn't know what the situation was on Su Jin's side, so he only said, "Jin Niang, if you have anything to do, or if you need anything, you just come to me and the county lord."
Xia Yulan also responded sincerely: "Well, Miss Su can come to us for anything." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Liwen and smiled.
Su Jin looked at the appearance of these two people and looked very good. I thought that maybe Zhang Liwen also began to accept Xia Yulan sincerely.
is also smart and cheerful to Xia Yulan, and open-minded and interesting, how can such a person not be liked.
Looking at the appearance of Zhang Liwen and Xia Yulan now, Su Jin is also happy for them.
But when I think of Chengzhao...... Su Jin was a little bitter.
Not heartache, not resentment, but ...... It's a faint sadness.
Yes, sorrow. Su Jin defines this state of mind as sadness. A kind of sadness about one's own obsessive view of love. A kind of sadness that she didn't know if the person she loved would accept the idea.
Su Jin smiled and said, "Well, if I need it, I will come to you." Brother Liwen, the county lord, Su Jin is only familiar with the two of you in Beijing. If I really need it, I will definitely come to you for help. ”
Su Jin would say this, but he was also afraid that Zhang Liwen would be worried. Zhang Liwen and her are fellow villagers after all, and they have had a lot of contact, and the two can be regarded as friends. As for Xia Yulan, the county lord of Yunzhou, Su Jin is also willing to treat such a good girl as a friend.
"That's good." Zhang Liwen was indeed relieved to hear Su Jin say this. He is a man, and it is inconvenient to ask about Su Jin's feelings.
Su Jin asked Xiao Er to serve the hot pot and some dishes, Xia Yulan was stunned, she looked at the table full of dishes and asked, "Miss Su, is this what you make in your store?"
Su Jin nodded.
Xia Yulan smiled and said, "The color and flavor are beautiful, and it looks delicious."
Su Jin smiled and put the chopsticks on her side, and said, "The county lord thinks it's good, so try it?"
Xia Yulan glanced at Zhang Liwen, and Zhang Liwen coughed dryly and said, "If you want to eat, you can eat."
Su Jin smiled and handed Zhang Liwen a pair of chopsticks: "Brother Liwen will also try it, and by the way, I will give a comment."
Xia Yulan had already started eating, and she said while eating: "No need to comment, it's not too delicious, I've never eaten anything so delicious." However, your price is ...... Is this so cheap? Miss Su, you can actually price such a delicious thing higher. ”
Su Jin smiled: "It is an honor for the small shop to receive the appreciation of the county lord." The price is ...... We take the people-friendly route, and we also hope that more customers will consume or stimulate ordinary people to consume, so that our customer base will be larger. ”
"Oh, that's how you can make more money?" Xia Yulan interface.
Su Jin smiled: "Merchants are profitable, which is probably what the county lord said." However, my plan is that the price is not high, mainly so that I can open a branch store in the future. If the price is set too high, the consumer group will only have some nobles, and the development will be restricted. The branch is not easy to open. ”
"Oh, that Miss Su, you are quite powerful, you can think so far ahead, and you have such a plan." Xia Yulan gave a thumbs up to express her admiration.
Su Jin said with a smile: "I borrowed the auspicious words of the county lord, if the branch can be opened to the county lord's hometown in the future, then the county lord of Lao will mention Su Jin to intercede with Lord Yun and charge us less taxes."
Xia Yulan smiled: "Okay, no problem, let's wait, I want to eat such delicious things in Yunzhou." Hey, no more, I'm going to eat. ”
Xia Yulan ate happily, and Zhang Liwen was also attracted by this novel way of eating and taste.
Su Jin chatted with them for a while, and then planned to get up and leave.
Before she could get up, though, the door to the box was pushed open.
Seungzhao stood outside the door and looked at her.
