Chapter Fifty-Eight: Shaved Ice Sells Big

For a few days, the business of the rice line not only did not improve at all, but it was not as good as day by day, gradually, Huang Fuyue ran out of patience, this night, after eating, when several people left the front hall together, Huang Fuyue stopped Huang Fuxue.

"Isn't it your ghost, otherwise why was Mi Xing's business so good before, but after I took over, it got worse and worse?"

Huangfu Xue turned her head to stare at her and smiled, "What does the eldest sister mean by this, could it be that she suspects me of deliberately making trouble?" The eldest sister can think clearly, whether it is a rice shop or a restaurant, it is the property of the Huangfu family, and no matter how stupid I am, I will not do such a thing that harms others and is not beneficial to myself. ”

After laughing, she continued, "Instead of arguing with me here about why the business in the shop is not good, the eldest sister should hurry back and think of a way." Seeing that the half-moon period is approaching, if the eldest sister loses at that time, don't blame me for not reminding you. After saying that, he left the front yard directly.

Huang Fuyue stared at her back and stomped her feet angrily, "Hmph, it's just that I'm a little smart, and I really think I have a lot of ability." Wu Hu was also anxious when he stood aside, and when he saw Huangfu Zhengxiong looking this way, he hurriedly pulled Huangfu Yue aside.

"Don't worry, lady, let's go back and talk about something." Wu Hu dragged her back to the South Courtyard, and as soon as she entered the door, Huang Fuyue shook Wu Hu away, "Why did you pull me away just now, where was my father at that time, we can just use this opportunity to say something bad about the second child." ”

"You think it's simple, didn't you see your father's face just now? Okay, this competition is not as important as the Huangfu family's property. If we win, it's better, if we can't, we can't let our dad have an opinion on us because of this. ”

Huang Fuyue was not stupid, and after a little thought, she heard the meaning of her words, although she was unwilling, she still kept her mouth shut, "Let's just admit the matter of Mi Xing?" ”

"It's not that there are still a few days, let's think of a way first, it's really not good, and then think of other countermeasures, I heard that the third sister's silk village business is worse, and the profit of a few days is not as much as ours a day, and now they are really anxious, and they are more anxious."

"Hmph, that's not necessarily, my good third sister is now relying on the piece of meat in her belly, and she doesn't even care about me, the eldest sister. Maybe people don't care about this competition at all. It's just a piece of meat, and as long as it's not born, no one knows what will happen in the end. ”

Wu Hu glanced at her, and a touch of approval crossed his eyes. The two smiled tacitly, and then Wu Hu went to the table to read the account book, and Huang Fuyue sat aside and ate melon seeds. As the night deepened, Huangfu Xue sat in the room, thinking about how An Mingchen was doing now, I don't know what the situation was on his side, did he suffer?

Caiyu came in from outside and put the tray on the table, "Miss, you have lost weight in the past two days, this is the tonic soup that the slave maid personally made for you, you can drink some while it's hot." ”

"Caiyu, how are you at home these two days? If you regret it, feel free to come to me. That incident has passed, and the reason why Huang Fuxue said this was to comfort him, and to tell her that the restaurant was always welcome to go back.

Sure enough, hearing this, Caiyu's eyes turned red, "Miss, thank you." But the slave thinks it's good now. No matter where the slave is, as long as I can help the young lady, the slave is already very happy. ”

"Alright, it's not too early, you should go back and rest early." In autumn, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Huang Fuxue saw that the guys especially like to eat cold things, so after teaching the chef, he decided to promote shaved ice as a specialty of the restaurant. Who knows, in just one day, everyone in the capital knows about this dessert.

For two days in a row, there was a long queue at the door before noon, Huang Fuxue stood on the second floor and looked surprised, he was just kind enough to relieve the heat for the little guys, but he didn't expect to accidentally hit and add a very popular dessert to the restaurant.

"Shopkeeper, I'm going to take it with me."

"Shopkeeper, why haven't my three points been delivered yet?" As soon as the restaurant opened, the chef was making shaved ice, and it was noon, and the people who came to buy shaved ice at the door not only decreased, but more and more, and the chef was embarrassed. Seeing this, Huangfu Xue asked the shopkeeper to go up and help.

"Guys, shaved ice is just a dessert in our restaurant, available for a limited time, and that's all for today. Everybody wants to buy it tomorrow, please hurry up. After the shopkeeper finished speaking, there was a grumble in the house. The shopkeeper had no choice, so after sending them away, he went to the back kitchen to help.

There was a small guy who didn't buy shaved ice for most of the day, and he stood aside depressedly and refused to leave, no matter how the little guy persuaded him, he refused to leave, and he had no choice but to invite Huangfu Xue down. Huang Fuxue smiled and went downstairs after hearing this.

"Miss Huangfu, please do well, and sell me another dessert. My young lady hasn't eaten well for a few days, and she has had an appetite for this shaved ice recently, and the little one has come early, but she still hasn't bought it, and if she goes back like this, the master will kill the little one. ”

"The restaurant has the rules of the restaurant, and I can't break the rules just because of a few words from you. You're hungry, it's noon, and the chefs are still cooking, so they don't have time to make any shaved ice for you. You'd better go back. Huangfu Xue turned around, and suddenly heard a pop behind him, and when he turned around, he saw the little guy who was standing here just now kneeling on the ground, and his face was slightly gloomy when he saw this.

Huangfu Xue has always had a bad temper, and she doesn't like to be threatened, and the behavior of the little guy in front of her is a threat in her eyes. Just stopped for a moment and quickly went upstairs. Half an hour later, the shopkeeper went upstairs and said hesitantly; "That little guy was still kneeling in the hall just now, Second Miss......"

"He likes to kneel, so let her keep kneeling." Huangfu Xue said expressionlessly, "Okay, it should be quite busy down there now, you can also go and help." ”

"Second Miss, the old slave thinks that this matter is not easy to make too much trouble, and the second miss is still betting with the eldest lady and them, if they have the intention to use this matter against you, you are afraid that it will be ......" The latter words, even if the shopkeeper doesn't say it, Huang Fuxue can hear what it means.

However, Huangfu Xue had never climbed the two eldest ladies of the Huangfu family, and said indifferently, "If they want to, just do it." The shopkeeper couldn't get used to what she said, but the second lady just didn't let go, so she didn't say anything anymore and turned around to leave. At this time, Huang Fuxue suddenly spoke.

"He's the little guy in that house?" In addition to the accident in the wrong way, this person has to be said to be a loyal subordinate. Well, even for the sake of this, she shouldn't sit idly by. When the housekeeper heard this, his face was happy, "This person is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, from Lord Zhao's mansion." I heard that Lord Zhao's wife passed away a few years ago, and she was the only one who left such a daughter, and she was very fond of her, but Miss Zhao's body was very weak, and she never broke off her major and minor illnesses all year round. ”

"And such a thing." Huangfu Xue's expression changed slightly, he originally thought that the unruly master was abusing his subordinates, but now it seems that he is just a poor little girl, since he has decided to help them, he will simply help them to the end. It's just that this is an exception for them. Wouldn't it ruin the signboard of their Huangfu family if it was spread out?

Huang Fuxue thought for a while, looked up and said, "Go down and tell that person that if you want the chef to make shaved ice for her, she will help her in our restaurant for free for an hour, otherwise, let her leave with Miss Ben now." ”

The shopkeeper's face was a little bit, "Yes, the old slave will go and tell her." Downstairs, the little guy heard the words, and kowtowed a few heads in the direction of the stairs, and then followed the shopkeeper to the backyard, the chef was still busy, the little guy was a diligent one, and when he saw someone who could help, he would help, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and soon won the love of the cook, after noon, the chef personally made a shaved ice for her, and the little guy returned to Zhao's house happily.

After the little servant left, the shopkeeper came up to deliver the account book and told her what had just happened, Huangfu Xue didn't say anything when she heard this, but the smile on the corner of her mouth betrayed her mood at this time.

In the palace, for a few days, the emperor didn't even have time to sleep because of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, let alone go to the harem. There are countless concubines in the harem, and there are originally more monks and less meat, but now the emperor can't even come for state affairs, and they can't sit still anymore.

On this day, Concubine Zheng Guifei ordered the cook to make some soup to clear away the heat and relieve the heat, and personally brought it to the imperial study. The emperor just received the excerpt from Jiangnan, and after reading it, he lost his temper, this will Zheng Guifei come over, and Li Fuxi directly stopped people outside the main hall.

"The emperor is not in a good mood today, if the concubine is fine, please go back." Li Fuxi kept a smile on his face, but no matter how Concubine Zheng looked at it, it seemed that she was mocking herself, and her face sank instantly, "Gonggong Li, open your eyes and take a good look, this concubine comes to see the emperor, do you still need your consent?" ”

Li Fuxi was originally just kind-hearted, but when she saw that she didn't know what to do, she didn't say anything, and Concubine Zheng thought that she had shocked Li Fuxi, and took the palace people to the imperial study with arrogance. The emperor leaned on his arm, holding the fold, frowning slightly. Every now and then he sighs. Concubine Zheng Guifei stepped forward and personally brought the soup bowl to the case, "The emperor is still bothering about the affairs of Jiangnan." The weather is hot, the emperor first drinks soup to relieve the heat, and it's not too late to think about it later. ”

"Why are you here," a flash of dissatisfaction flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he thought to himself, Li Fuxi is really becoming more and more useless, and she can't even guard the door, what else do I expect from her?

"Your Majesty, the concubines heard that you have been very tired recently because of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other concubines can't help the emperor with anything, so I ordered the imperial dining room to prepare some tonic soup for the emperor, first, to relieve the heat, and second, to let the emperor rest for a while. Your Majesty, come and taste it and see how it tastes? ”

Zheng Guifei was specially dressed before she came, and as soon as she got a little closer to the emperor, she could smell the strong smell of rouge on her body, and she didn't feel anything in the past, but today I don't know what's wrong, and he feels uncomfortable when he smells this smell.

"Okay, put down the soup, you can go back first. I also have to review the recitals. ”
