Chapter 211: Announcing Your Entry into the Palace
As soon as he ascended to the court on the second day, the Emperor Taishang announced that his youngest son Yuan Yang was still alive in the world, and he was specially named King Yi and gave him a luxurious mansion in Beijing, and there were countless people under the gold brocade silk. And Liu Ke followed the above table to plead guilty, and the Emperor Taishang reprimanded him a few words, ordered him to go home and strictly discipline his family, and apologized to King Yi. He also asked the ministers of the DPRK and China to take care of their families and subordinates.
The holy decree came to Yuan's mansion, and the mansion rejoiced. Yuan Tianye didn't show much joy, tore the mask on his face, restored his original appearance, changed his clothes, and followed the eunuch who came to announce the decree into the palace to thank him.
Lin Xiaozhu looked at the people in the Yuan Mansion who were so excited that they burst into tears, and sighed in his heart: It's time for him to leave here.
"Steward Zhang, I want to go to the dim sum shop, I don't know if it's okay." She found Steward Zhang in the crowd and asked.
"This ......," Steward Zhang glanced at Yuan Cheng.
A few days ago, Lin Xiaozhu was not allowed to go out, because he was afraid that Yuan Zhibai would catch Lin Xiaozhu to make a fuss. But at this time, since the father and son have released their previous suspicions, Yuan Zhibai should not do anything that makes Yuan Tianye sad again. Yuan Cheng nodded and said, "Well, let's go." He also instructed Yuan Wuniang, "Good students follow." ”
Lin Xiaozhu and Yuan Wuniang took a car, went to Shangyu Restaurant, and saw the traffic in front of the dim sum shop, people coming and going, very lively, and was startled. Yuan Wuniang was not at ease, got out of the car and inquired, then got in the car, and smiled with Lin Xiaozhu: "Everyone now knows that Doctor Yuan is actually King Yi, and they all come to the dim sum shop to cheer." I heard that this time, the dim sum in the shop was sold out at once. ”
Lin Xiaozhu smiled and sighed, "The icing on the cake." He looked out through the car window again, "When I go in at this time, I'm afraid that I have to keep socializing, and I can't get out, and I can't even say a word to Shopkeeper Zhou." "I knocked on the door and commanded the driver." Go around to the back door. ”
Yuan Tianye originally had a back door because of special needs, whether it was a shop or a house. And this back door is quite hidden. The coachman went around an alley, and when he got behind Yu Yu Zhai, Lin Xiaozhu got out of the car. There was a knock on the door. The mother-in-law in the kitchen was overjoyed when she saw that it was Lin Xiaozhu. "Girl, you can come." Our shop has received an order of a few hundred taels of silver today, and we are very busy. ”
Lin Xiaozhu entered the door and asked, "Is Shopkeeper Zhou available?" I'm looking for him right now, and you ask him to come to the cubicle in the back kitchen. And he said, "Open the door to the cubicle." ”
"Yes." The mother-in-law also knew that Lin Xiaozhu was the person Yuan Tianye valued. I didn't dare to slack off, so I went quickly.
After a while, Shopkeeper Zhou came and said, "Little bamboo girl, you can come." At this time, many ladies and ladies have asked about you. ”
"Shopkeeper Zhou, it's been hard work." Lin Xiaozhu stood up and personally poured him a cup of tea.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Shopkeeper Zhou said repeatedly.
"I heard that the business of this jade food restaurant has been cold for a while, and it is only today that it is booming. Can you show me the account? ”
"Okay." Shopkeeper Zhou knew that Gongzi was a careless person, and this dim sum shop was completely arranged by Lin Xiaozhu. How she commanded. How to do it naturally. went down and took the account book and handed it to Lin Xiaozhu.
"Give me some more pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and you can get busy." Lin Xiaozhu took it and said to Yuan Wuniang. "You don't have to guard me here, I'll look at the account, it'll be fine."
Yuan Wuniang has been here with Lin Xiaozhu for a while in the past, and she is most familiar with this place. Hearing that Lin Xiaozhu was looking after the accounts, he went out of the cubicle and went to help in the kitchen.
Lin Xiaozhu looked through the account books and saw that the income during this period was really not good. Lin Lin has all in all, from the opening to the present, counting the orders received today, the net income is more than 4,000 taels of silver. According to the three-seven division, she can only get one thousand three hundred taels.
She sighed. If this is the case with dim sum shops, the income of hot pot restaurants can be imagined. Five thousand taels of silver, she's still far away. It seems that he has to borrow a lot of money from Shen Ziyi.
She copied the big account on a piece of paper, and followed Yuan Wuniang to the hot pot restaurant. To her surprise, although it is not a meal now, there are many customers in the store.
"Here, according to the girl's original plan, we have set a rule that if it is not a meal time, it will be a 20% discount. So there are still people who eat at this time. And the chili pepper you made, girl, many people now like the taste, and there are a lot of repeat customers. We've made a lot of money during this time. When the shopkeeper saw her coming, he was very happy, and took the account book as she asked.
Sure enough, this hot pot restaurant earned 1,600 taels of silver during this time. According to the fifty-fifty division, Lin Xiaozhu can take eight hundred taels.
She went out of the hot pot restaurant with Yuan Wuniang and said, "Wuniang, I have lived in Shen Yuan for so long, thanks to the care of Yi Gongzi. I came back in a hurry that day, and I didn't say goodbye to Tsubashi in person. Look, can you accompany me to Shen Yuan for a spin? ”
Yuan Wuniang's mission has always been to protect Lin Xiaozhu. As for the rest, she had always known proportions. And she also knows Yuan Tianye's thoughts about Lin Xiaozhu. The person in front of him may be Yuan Tianye's concubine, and he is half of his future master. So what Lin Xiaozhu said, she naturally would not object. The two took the car again and arrived in Shen Garden.
Lin Xiaozhu was also worried that Shen Ziyi was not at home and would pounce. Unexpectedly, luck was very good, as soon as Shen Ziyi heard the rumors, he greeted him.
Lin Xiaozhu knew that it was not good to delay outside for too long today, so he didn't talk about it at the moment, so he broke Yuan Wuniang away, and explained to Shen Ziyi in a few words, asking for two thousand nine hundred taels of silver.
"It's easy." Shen Ziyi turned his head and ordered his girl a few words, then turned his face and said, "You don't have to be in a hurry to pay back this money." It's never too late when it's convenient. To put it mildly, if you don't pay it back, it's nothing. We're friends anyway, aren't we? If a friend has something to do, reach out and help, isn't it right? ”
"Thank you, Tsubasa." Lin Xiaozhu is a person who doesn't like to be in debt, so naturally he won't fail to repay Shen Ziyi's money. But she didn't want to say this, she just knew it in her heart.
Shen Ziyi's girl quickly brought a few silver tickets, and after Shen Ziyi took them, she handed them to Lin Xiaozhu: "These three are two thousand nine hundred taels of silver, and this one is one thousand taels of silver." After you take the deed of sale, you may have to leave the Yuan Mansion. And I'm here, I'm naturally glad that you are willing to come and live. But if you are afraid of Yuan Tianye's mood and your reputation, and you want to rent a house outside to live in, or do business, you have to ask for money, so take it first. ”
Although Lin Xiaozhu was not in business in his previous life, he lived in that information age, and naturally knew that the first million was the most difficult to earn, and in the future, money could make money, and it would be easier and easier to make money. With a thousand taels of silver in her hand, she could run a large restaurant, and with her fresh recipes and some modern business experience, it would not be difficult to earn a few thousand taels of silver in a few months. Moreover, borrowing 2,900 taels is also borrowing, and 3,900 taels is also borrowing, and there is not much difference. She didn't excuse herself, put away the silver ticket, stood up and said, "I won't say anything about thanks, just keep it in my heart." It's been a long time since I came out today, and the prince went to the palace to receive the reward, and I don't know what will happen to the Yuan Mansion, so I'll leave first. ”
"Okay, let's go." Shen Ziyi nodded. When Yuan Tianye begged him to save Lin Xiaozhu, Shen Ziyi thought that Yuan Tianye was just Langzhong, but he had some means, so he made a request for him to go to the South China Sea. Now that Yuan Tianye turned out to be the world-famous "Yang Gongzi", Shen Ziyi didn't dare to take it seriously. So he didn't tell Lin Xiaozhu that he was going back to the South China Sea, and Yuan Tianye was going to go with him.
Lin Xiaozhu called Yuan Wuniang, went out of Shen Garden, and rode to the alley in front of Yuan's mansion. ”
"What?" Lin Xiaozhu couldn't believe his ears. The Queen Mother announced her into the palace? She heard her right, right? Yuan Tianye's mother had been very dissatisfied with her before and had beaten her twice. Even if there is a misunderstanding again this time, if you want to let Yuan Tianye be a concubine, shouldn't she be announced to enter the palace? She is a subordinate, in the eyes of their royal family, they are all slaves and maids who can't get on the stage, at most they are only given the title of a concubine, that is, the side concubines are worthy of being selected by those high-ranking families. She is such a small cook, how can she let the Queen Mother announce her into the palace? Was it Yuan Tianye's request, or was her jade card known?
"Let's go back and change your clothes, why are you stunned." After Yuan Wuniang was stunned, she was the first to come to her senses and pushed Lin Xiaozhu in turn.
"That...... Can you tell the Queen Mother that she didn't find me? Lin Xiaozhu didn't want to enter the palace in every way. That place is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones. Yuan Tianye's mother has always had no good impression of her. She didn't want to marry Yuan Tianye, so naturally she didn't have the courage to die for him, and she avoided that place as far as she could.
"What stupid things are you talking about? You're back, and you think we're all four eyes can see? Bullying is a big sin! What are you still doing? Why don't you go back and change your clothes! Yuan Wuniang said. When Lin Xiaozhu went out, she was still wearing the half-old muslin dress she wore in the old Yuan Mansion. Such a dress naturally cannot be worn into the palace.
Lin Xiaozhu had no choice, so she had to go to Yuan's mansion, thinking about why the Queen Mother wanted to announce her into the palace and how she would act after entering the palace. But he didn't want to be grabbed by the arm as soon as he entered the Yuan Mansion, and said, "Miss Xiaozhu, it's great for you to come back." Quick, the Queen Mother announced that you will enter the palace, hurry up and change your clothes, I have prepared all the clothes and jewelry for you. With that, he pulled her in.
"Mama Wu, what are you doing here?" Lin Xiaozhu just wanted everyone not to see her.
"What do you say? The Queen Mother's decree has been issued for a long time. They're looking for you everywhere, and they're in a hurry. Now that you're back, where do you dare to rub in? Mama Wu smiled. The Queen Mother announced that Lin Xiaozhu entered the palace, and it was very likely that she would take care of King Yi's mood and give Lin Xiaozhu a side concubine to do, and Mama Wu regretted that she had looked away at the beginning, and offended Lin Xiaozhu in order to listen to the rain.
