I have to say that Hongyunlou can become the first restaurant in Jiangling Mansion, and it is really not boasted. The restaurant looks simple on the outside, but the decoration on the inside is flashy. What surprised Lu Xianger the most was the variety of dishes, which can be said to be 'full of color, flavor and flavor'. However, Song Yuan, Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong were a little dissatisfied. Because the best wine in Hongyun Building is not as good as Lu Xianger's 'soju' now.

"When I drank this rice wine before, I didn't feel so unpleasant. Why is it that it is a little hard to swallow when you drink it now? Song Yuan shook his head, put down the wine glass in his hand, and asked Xiao Wu to ask for a pot of tea.

As soon as Song Yuan said this, Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong also put down their respective wine glasses, no longer pretending. When Lu Xiang'er saw this scene, she immediately had a new idea in her heart. When she first arrived in Qingshi County, Lu Xianger thought that she would develop there for a long time. But now seeing that in the largest restaurant in Jiangling Mansion, the best wine is not good, Lu Xianger is a little excited.

However, thinking of the experience of her previous life, Lu Xiang'er forcibly suppressed this excitement. In the previous life, Gangneung Province was also a provincial capital. In a place like this, the competition in the industry is definitely not small. Even if Lu Xiang'er has such a good wine as 'soju', if she is not careful, she will not be able to gain a foothold in Gangneung Mansion.

"Xiang'er, Mr. Song asked you what else you want to eat." Lu Xiang'er was thinking about it, and the voice of Chaoxia beside her gently came into her ears. At the same time, Song Yuan smiled and said: "Xiang'er, if you don't know what else you want to eat, then call Xiao Er over and introduce the dishes of the restaurant." ”

"No, sir, I've eaten and I can't eat any more." Lu Xiang'er saw that the dishes on the table were almost eaten, so she gave Lu Hong a look.

Lu Hong immediately said: "Since Xiang'er is full, then let's go back, and I'll settle the account." Mr. Song, don't be angry, this has been said before, and today I invite you. As he spoke, Lu Hong smiled at Song Yuan, got up and walked out.

Song Yuan raised his hand, and just as he wanted to say something, he was blocked back by Lu Hong. Looking at the closed door, Song Yuan shook his head and didn't say anything. But Huo Qingsong on the side deliberately glanced at Lu Xiang'er, and a different color flashed in his eyes.

Lu Xiang'er's attention was on Song Yuan at this time, and she didn't notice Huo Qingsong's expression, but said with a smile: "Mr. Song, today's dinner is not only to celebrate my brother's entry into Luming Courtyard, but also for the reunion between Mr. You and General Huo after many years, don't be so polite." ”

"You brothers and sisters......" Song Yuan sighed softly, but there was some warmth in his heart.

In other words, Song Yuan really has no source of livelihood in Qingshi County. At most, he hung a small idle job in the county government and received a meager salary. All his living expenses were all the silver taels he originally carried. Lu Erniang knew this, so she didn't mind Song Yuan coming to eat at home. Sometimes, she will ask Lu Hong to find various excuses to take the initiative to call Song Yuan.

Such a person, such a practice, Song Yuan, who knows it well, can not be moved. It was also because he saw Lu Erniang's character clearly that Song Yuan would stay in Qingshi County so deadly and lazy. Song Yuan's mother, who has been dead for many years, said a sentence that he still remembers in his heart, marrying a wife should be a virtuous man.

Out of Hongyun Tower, Song Yuan found that it was only past noon, and it was still early, so he said to Lu Hong: "Brother Hong, you will come to Luming Courtyard to study in two days." Why don't you take advantage of the time you still have today to buy some items that you need to go to the academy. ”

"If you don't say it, sir, I'll forget it." Lu Hong was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the piece of paper given by Luming Academy in his arms. Thinking that Qingshi County might not really have some of the items written on it, Lu Hong was very grateful to Song Yuan for thinking so thoughtfully: "Then let's go shopping in this Jiangling Mansion." ”

Song Yuan was about to nod, but Huo Qingsong suddenly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, I want to visit a friend, so I won't go with you." ”

"Look at friends?!" Song Yuan glanced at Huo Qingsong in surprise, but didn't ask anything. He nodded directly and said, "That's it, after an hour, we will meet at the Qingxin Teahouse, and then go back to Qingshi County together." ”

"Okay, in an hour, I'll wait for you at the Qingxin Teahouse." Huo Qingsong nodded to Lu Hong, Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia, and then took Huo Bao into another carriage and left.

Song Yuan also took Lu Hong and the three of them into the carriage and slowly left Hongyun Building. Without Huo Qingsong, Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia seem to be a lot more relaxed. The two sat in the carriage, chatting softly, looking at the pedestrians coming and going, not at all like when they came.

On the other side, Song Yuan looked at the paper in Lu Hong's arms, and let Xiao Wu turn into the alley not far away with the car. After this alley, there is a shop that buys the four treasures of the study, which Song Yuan heard Huo Qingsong mention. Although it is not large, it has a wide range of varieties and the price is not very expensive.

However, just as they passed through the quieter alley, the quarrel between the two attracted Lu Xiang'er's attention. When she looked out through the curtains, her expression immediately moved. After thinking about it, Lu Xiang'er put down the curtain, turned her head and said to Song Yuan: "Mr. Song, I saw that at the gate of the courtyard in front, the son of Yuan Craftsman was arguing with someone, do you want to go over and take a look?" ”

"Oh?" Song Yuan was slightly stunned, and immediately opened the curtain and looked out. When he saw that it was indeed Yuan Musheng, he said to Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, you stop the carriage and go to the front to see what happened." ”

"Okay, the little one will stop the carriage and go over and have a look at it." Xiao Wu quickly drove the carriage to the side, stopped by a high wall, and then jumped out of the carriage and walked over quickly.

It didn't take long for the bickering to stop. When Xiao Wu came back, Yuan Musheng also came to thank Song Yuan again. Seeing this, Song Yuan immediately got out of the car and went to the side to talk to Yuan Musheng. In the carriage, Lu Xiang'er briefly talked with Lu Hong and Chaoxia about the experience of Yuan Musheng and Yuan Jiangren's father and son.

Lu Hong and Chaoxia knew what kind of 'still' at home was made by an old man surnamed Yuan. The two didn't know that this Yuan craftsman's family had also experienced a lot of ups and downs. At the same time, Lu Hong also understood why Lu Xiang'er was so good to the Yuan family at that time, giving so much money to Yuan Jiangren's father and son, as well as those relaxed conditions.

Chaoxia listened to Lu Xiang'er's narration while looking at Yuan Musheng outside through the gap in the curtain. When Lu Xiang'er finished speaking, Chaoxia said in a low voice: "That Yuan Musheng outside can't be a carpenter, it's because of his hand problems, come to think of it, he should have been punished in the prison." ”

"I guess so. I heard that Yuan Musheng's craftsmanship when he was a teenager has almost caught up with Yuan Craftsman. It's a pity that the sky has caused a catastrophe to become what it is today. Lu Xiang'er sighed lightly and couldn't help but think of herself. Thinking of the time from Qianzhou to the present, Lu Xianger is really glad that she still has Lu Erniang and Lu Hong by her side.

Lu Hong, who has been a brother and sister with Lu Xianger for many years, knew what she thought of as soon as she saw Lu Xianger's expression. Lu Hong smiled slightly and said, "Xiang'er, as you said, everyone has their own opportunities, so there is no need to be happy or sorry. All we can do now is to live a better life so that we can be able to help those in need. ”

"I know, brother." Lu Xiang'er smiled back at Lu Hong, and her mood slowly improved. When Chaoxia saw this scene, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. No one knows that she is willing to stay in the Lu family, because she likes the warm relationship of the three members of the Lu family.

About a quarter of an hour, Song Yuan came back with a frown. After he sat in the carriage, he said: "Uncle Yuan originally planned to sell his yard and go back to Jiangnan with Mu Sheng to retire. Unexpectedly, others thought that Yuan's yard was too expensive, so the price was very low......"

Finally, I finally met a person who was willing to pay the price that Yuan Craftsman wanted. When exchanging contracts, Yuan Musheng didn't know what was going on, so he actually had an extra eye to invite an expert. This man saw the problem in the contract at a glance, and then he knew about this scam.

Because of this, Yuan Jiangren became ill. Yuan Musheng couldn't get angry, so he came to the middleman to theorize. Because this middleman is a good friend of the Yuan family, how could Yuan Craftsman's father and son not think that this middleman would cheat him like this.

“…… Now Uncle Yuan is sick and has used a lot of money. If this courtyard is not sold at the original price, the father and son will return to Jiangnan, and Mu Sheng will still have to come out to do things. Song Yuan shook his head and sighed lightly. And in his heart, he sighed that if this was in Jingshi, he would definitely be able to get that money.

Suddenly, Song Yuan thought of something, raised his head suddenly, and looked at what Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong were thinking about. However, thinking that Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong were still too young, and there was Lu Erniang on them, Song Yuan swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Let Xiao Wu continue to drive the carriage, Song Yuan also began to think about talking to Lu Erniang about this matter after going back, but Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong were also thinking about it. Although the two brothers and sisters bought Yuan's yard as Song Yuan imagined, they both had their own goals.

Lu Hong's idea is very simple, he will study at Luming Academy in the future, and the time to return to Qingshi County may be very small. If he has his own home in Jiangling Mansion, Lu Erniang and Lu Xiang'er can come to see him. Moreover, you can go back to Qingshi County whenever you want. , and there is no need to rush back to Qingshi County.

As for Lu Xiang'er, she thought that in the future, if she came to Jiangling Mansion to develop, she really needed a place of her own. If you look for it then, it's better to buy the place you like now. The courtyard of Yuan Craftsman is not big or small, and it is very quiet, which makes Lu Xianger like it very much. Lu Xiang'er also believes that when Lu Erniang sees this courtyard, she will be satisfied with living here in the future.
