Chapter 253: Hongmen Banquet
"Young Master Xu, Miss Lin, congratulations." Shen Jiao still stepped into the door with a decent smile, and the gifts were placed on the table one by one, all of them were gold and silver vulgar.
Although these things are shining, Lin Huiru can't be interested, if it is jade jade, she licks her face and accepts it, just because the space is overdrawn because of gifts.
"Miss Shen, let's take these things back, these gifts are too generous, I can't afford it." Xu Ziqiao doesn't have a good impression of Shen Jiao, not to mention that there are a lot of strange things between their brothers and sisters, what kind of kindness can the weasel have when he greets the chicken?
"Young Master Xu, let's take it, this is my heart, and I wish Gongzi can rise steadily." Shen Jiao's hand under her sleeve clenched, she didn't expect Xu Ziqiao to reject her.
Xu Ziqiao's attitude was particularly firm, and he even retreated and distanced himself from her, "Please take it back with Miss Shen." ”
He was so determined, Shen Jiao was also very embarrassed, and he had no choice but to divert the topic, "There is a banquet for Xiaoqing tonight, and I hope that Miss Lin will not refuse this time, if you want to make a living in the capital in the future, this network is indispensable." ”
Lin Huiru wanted to roll his eyes a little when he said this, and if he wanted to borrow other people's power, he had to be an old minister, and now that the palace test had not yet arrived, this group of people began to be blindly happy again.
However, at this time, the plot of holding a banquet is too obvious.
I learned from Qi Zhengxi that the Shen family is the Xiangwang Party, and this time I am afraid that she has invited a lot of tributes to a private banquet, if she guesses correctly, someone will inevitably throw an olive branch.
And Xu Ziqiao, as the first place, is the most eye-catching, this only one is equivalent to pushing the first place to the cusp.
But even if Lin Huiru wants to shirk Kwai Shui again, I'm afraid there will be no reason.
Looking at Shen Jiao's expectant face, Lin Huiru felt a little uncomfortable, "I'm sorry Miss Shen, there are still three days left before the palace test, and the palace test is even more strict, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to celebrate at this moment." ”
"Why, everyone is almost there, just having a meal together, and everyone is preparing for the same time." Shen Jiao smiled and explained.
Lin Huiru frowned, she glanced at the admitted people in the afternoon, but there was no Shen Fu's name on the list, "Miss Shen, there are also many people who have failed this time, I'm afraid it's not good to celebrate a lot, and Shen Gongzi also failed this time, as a younger sister, don't you go and comfort me?"
These words immediately poked Shen Jiao's sore spot, and her smile stiffened, "It's okay, my brother is very broad-hearted, every time there will be people who lose, and some people will fall off the list, isn't it inevitable?"
After hearing this, Xu Ziqiao's good impression of Xu Ziqiao also lowered a lot, "Miss Shen, it is indeed worth celebrating if you want to celebrate, but I like stupid birds to fly first, and I hope Miss Shen will not persuade me again." ”
Seeing the husband and wife in front of her singing and harmonizing, it made Shen Jiao jealous, but she also knew in her heart that if she bit it again, I am afraid it would arouse suspicion.
"Well... Then wait for next time, I won't bother. Shen Jiao left in a low voice, and Xu Ziqiao did not forget to hand the things back to the maid.
The two of them were left in the room again, and the condensed air dissolved.
"Huh, I don't know what evil the Shen family must be so diligent, if it is safer, it will not be seen." Lin Huiru patted her chest, maybe she was just not suitable for this kind of false scene, and she was always a little panicked in her heart.
"The Shen family is a fourth-grade, the position is not high or low, it is a little embarrassing, if you want to get the attention of King Xiang, then you must behave well, and you can't blame them for quick success." Xu Ziqiao analyzed.
This is not unreasonable, some people comfort and some people want to climb up, after all, the court is not a calm place, compared to the officials in those remote places, it is more stable.
"Whatever they do, what are we going to eat tonight? Originally, I wanted to make a barbecue for you to taste, but there can't be an open flame in the capital, so it seems that we can only wait until we return to our hometown and go to Boss Jia to open meat. Lin Huiru was a little discouraged, she really missed the taste and missed it tightly.
"It's good to endure it for another seven days, and other things are sold in the capital." Xu Ziqiao rubbed Lin Huiru's head, as if this had become his habit.
Lin Huiru sighed heavily, as if this road was not long, if she could really get a job in the capital, she must bring Qi Lotus and Lin Qing, as well as Xiao Hei and Zhao Di.
Three days flew by in a blink of an eye, Xu Ziqiao was still working hard, watching Xu Ziqiao line up to enter the palace, but Lin Huiru's heart became nervous.
"Don't worry, it's just the third exam, although it is a reference in the palace, but His Majesty is just listening, and he is generally reviewing and reading the folds, and he can't listen to anything." Qi Zhengxi also came to see off Xu Ziqiao, after all, they will inevitably work together in the future.
Lin Huiru nodded, and then took out the drawings she drew from her sleeve and handed them to Qi Zhengxi, "This is my newly drawn drawing, the walls may need to be all whitewashed, and the tables and chairs also need to be customized, and I will pay for the cost, but I don't know if I can trouble Shizi to find a master with good skills?"
"Of course you can, but it's just a gesture, I've never seen this shop before, but it must be good, I really didn't see the wrong person." Qi Zhengxi's words praised Lin Huiru, and he was really a little embarrassed.
She must have a little idea, but these are also thanks to the reference to modern things, "The prince has won the award, if it can, it should be able to start construction as soon as possible." ”
This time, everything has to be newly created and customized, and the time is half a month smaller, and even the paper cups have to be re-customized.
"Okay, I'll send someone to invite a craftsman in a while, and I'll send someone to watch over the shop, and Miss Lin will concentrate on studying dim sum." Qi Zhengxi gently folded the paper and put it away, and it couldn't be more intimate.
Lin Huiru nodded, "I plan to do more this time, but I don't know how the sales are, just look at the later updates and decrease, the taste of these things is just different things added, and I may have to wait for me to teach the master in terms of dim sum." ”
"Everything is under your command, Miss Lin, I don't have much business acumen, but I will definitely find someone who is tight-lipped about this person, after all, it is the only thing." Qi Zhengxi paused as he spoke, then suddenly smiled and said, "I almost forgot, I gave the things to my mother yesterday, she likes it very much, and I must thank you very much." And I heard that Miss Lin is going to cooperate with me to open a milk tea shop, and I specially instructed Miss Lin not to let you work too hard, think about how I haven't given her anything since I was a child, this time she can be so happy, thank you Miss Lin. ”
