Chapter 106: Gifts exchanged

There are at least a dozen plates up and down.

"Don't waste two of you." Zhao Huanting saw that Qi Shu had a tendency to get more and more, so she also stopped her.

"This time it's also practiced for you, these are nothing."

"Since Shu'er is so generous, then I'm not welcome! Xiao Er will bring two more pots of good wine, and there is no problem with the price, although Zhao Huanting heard Qi Shu's words and knew that she was just polite, so he would not be polite.

Qi Shu's face stiffened obviously, and then she couldn't help but smirk twice, even she felt a little sour, this Zhao Huanting was really not polite to him.

After Xiao Er memorized the things that the guests ordered, he retreated and took the opportunity to close the door carefully.

"Wan Ting, you are really not polite to me."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing, nothing." Qi Shu shook his head, thinking that he wouldn't bother with him.

"Shu'er is distressed about the money? You are not like me, but a businessman. ”

"No, I still paid for this money."

While waiting for Xiao Er to serve the food, Zhao Huanting couldn't think of anything to talk to Qi Shu, so she put her mind on Ning Ze.

Around, ordinary decoration, ordinary tea, no fun at all, far worse than his twilight tavern.

"Recently, the prince always goes to my tavern to drink and eat tea, and he must also love the elegant environment in my tavern."

Qi Shu glanced at her strangely and said, "The Twilight Tavern is one of the best taverns in Shaoliang City, where will I go if I don't go to you?" ”

Zhao Huanting couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard Qi Shu's tone of praise that she deservedly.

However, what Qi Shu said is also true.

It had been three years since the Twilight Tavern had been opened, and three years ago was also when he officially began to decorate the Wei Kingdom.

At that time, Zhao Huanting was planning to open a few popular shops in Wei and make friends with all kinds of strange people and powerful people.

Now, it can be regarded as a small achievement of the expected goal.

From the location of the twilight tavern to the design and layout of the automator herself, Zhao Huanting personally took the time to design it, so that people must feel different and spread the reputation.

"It took a lot of effort."

"So, Ning Ze is not a fool." Thinking of that person, Qi Shu couldn't help but twitch his expression a little, and his mouth was deflated.

"Is it inappropriate to call him by his first name?" Zhao Huanting was a little surprised, Qi Shu is the most knowledgeable, how could he knowingly commit a crime?

"What's wrong, let him hear it, bad guy!"

"Bad guys? Why? ”

"Does it count as pulling me into the water?" Qi Shu said a little aggrieved, I don't know why she unconsciously let go a lot in front of Zhao Huanting.

"Poof, I didn't expect Shu'er to have such a cute side, it really surprised me."

"That person is really a scoundrel and difficult to entangle, how can he be like Wan Ting, although you deliberately teased me before, but how can there be such an excesses as Ning Ze?" The more I thought about it, the more angry I became.

Xiao Er came up and brought a few dishes while the two were chatting, and he looked pretty good.

"I want to explain this, I have heard that the Shu girl of Qifu has a very good temper, so I have the intention of testing one or two, and I hope Shu'er doesn't mind, Huanting is not out of her heart, I just think Shu'er is very cute, like a cat."

"Cat-like?"

"Cats don't like to be close to people, they are cold and clean, they are clingy and not clingy, they are not clingy, and occasionally they come to disturb you, and they are itchy, and their temperament is a little unpredictable, but once they are close and familiar, they will feel that occasionally they are very attached to you. I used to have a cat. ”

In Zhao Huanting's eyes, Qi Shu is just like the cat, far and near, sometimes suddenly breaking into his arms, rubbing here and there, and when he went to fish, she slipped away like a slippery fish.

When he remembered it and wanted to look for it, he found that the cat was concentrating on his own business, and he didn't look at it anymore.

"This kind of Shu'er is really selfish." Zhao Huanting concluded.

"Qi Shu didn't! Wan Tinggui is a princess of a country, saving my life, and becoming friends by coincidence, it is really my honor, how can I leave immediately? ”

"But except that I forced you to look for you, why did you take the initiative to seek me? Occasionally, or did Prince Ning Ze bring you here, although you regard me as a close friend, but I don't feel your sincerity at all? If it seems to you that eating can be counted as sincere. ”

"This ...... Wan Ting, you also know my heart, not a very active person, plus I think Wan Ting has a lot of affairs, it is inconvenient to disturb, as for what is like a cat, it is absolutely none, it is a misunderstanding. ”

"Could it be that Shu'er likes the strong kind of King Guanghan? Forcibly entering your yard to plant bamboo for you? Pressing step by step, he didn't give Qi Shu the slightest chance to refute.

"It's, it's not, he forcibly..."

"If you really don't want to, how can you compromise with him?"

Qi Shu was speechless when questioned, it is true that she has always been more evasive and compromising in her attitude towards Ning Ze.

"Shu'er is in love with him?" Zhao Huanting said lightly, her voice was a little low, and it sounded like a breeze rising on the surface of the lake.

But these fluttering words, Qi Shu's ears set off a storm in her heart.

"Really?"

"It's not!" Qi Shu categorically denied it.

The corners of Zhao Huanting's lips were hooked, but the smile did not spread to the bottom of her eyes, she just shrugged her shoulders, picked up the wine glass on the table with her left hand a little awkwardly, and then drank it all.

Qi Shu's eyes were a little frightened, but they were quickly suppressed, and he was a little uneasy as if he was being seen through.

"If so, what if I will also plant bamboo for you?" Zhao Huanting muttered to herself.

"What?" Qi Shu didn't listen to it, and wanted Zhao Huanting to reiterate it again with some hesitation.

"It's okay, when I return to Wei from Zhao, then I'll also plant bamboo for you?"

...... "Why does anyone want to plant bamboo for her?" It's just because I like it a lot, but I don't think about getting her bamboo.

But considering that Wan Ting was leaving, it would be okay even if she promised her, so Qi Shu nodded and agreed.

Xiao Er went in and out twice, and all the meals were served, and there were so many plates hanging on one person, which also made the two of them marvel at the fact that this little two practice makes perfect, and they were also amazed by others when they served a dish.

The dishes and cups are all made of blue porcelain, which is the most common porcelain, but it looks acceptable when it comes down to a set, and the food and the like will also be eaten.

Zhao Huanting was hungry in her stomach, so she ate a little more, but Qi Shu didn't have much appetite, and she was still panicking in her heart, because Zhao Huanting pointed at the needle just now.

"In this world, it is more difficult for women to choose, it is difficult to choose a husband, and it is difficult to reconcile the public after marriage, so Shu'er should pay attention to it."

"I'm not in a hurry for the time being, how can Wan Ting be like my parents and elders, are you afraid that I won't be able to get married?"

"You must be married out, but do you really plan to marry Ning Ze? When I saw him, it seemed ......"

"Huh?"

"It's okay, but I misheard. Come, I'll toast you! ”

"Huh? Well...... "Qi Shu actually wanted to ask Zhao Huanting if she heard something, and just wanted to ask him, but just now Huanting said that, if she asked with such concern, doesn't it mean that she really remembers Ning Ze?"

Qi Shu's expression of wanting to ask but not daring to ask naturally fell into Zhao Huanting's eyes, and sure enough, she was a boudoir woman who was not deep in the city, and she couldn't hide things on her face, and everything was written on her face.

It's no wonder that Qi Hong said that Qi Shu would make people unconsciously relax their vigilance, not that it was naturally harmless, but that there was an inexplicable affinity.

Qi Shu sandwiched a few peanuts and put them in her mouth, and the fried peanuts were crispy and fragrant, which made her unconsciously like this chewing feeling.

"Before coming here, I specially prepared a heart for you, I hope you can accept it without disgust." Zhao Huanting's left hand unconsciously stretched out into her pocket, thinking about taking out the things she bought in the morning.

Qi Shu heard that Zhao Huanting had prepared a gift for herself and hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, she didn't give Zhao Huanting a parting gift, why did Zhao Huanting give her a gift first?

"It should be kept as a souvenir, it is not in vain that we met in Wei State, if we can't see each other again in the future, it is better to leave a memory."

Hearing this, Qi Shu unconsciously hesitated, doesn't what Zhao Huanting said mean that it is almost impossible to meet in the future?

Looking at Qi Shu's hesitant face, Zhao Huanting took the opportunity to take out the bamboo branch words, which were the women's ones.

"This hairpin is called Zhuzhi Ci, I like it very much when I see it, and I think it is very compatible with you, do you like it?"

Hairpins? Wan Ting sent her hairpin? This......

Look at the wooden box that is contained in Rouge Zhai, Qi Shu also has a few things from Rouge Zhai, naturally recognize this packaging box, see that the workmanship and texture are quite good, it should be expensive, some valuable.

"Isn't that too expensive?" Qi Shu said hesitantly.

"It's okay, if you like it, this is the first time I've given a gift to someone."

Qi Shu can't refuse what he said, everyone really said it, and Qi Shu's refusal is to put on a score.

"Well, since Grace is gracious, then I will no longer refuse."

Zhao Huanting watched with satisfaction as Qi Shu put away the hairpin, as if something had been left on Qi Shu's body.

Since Zhao Huanting gave her such a valuable gift, Qi Shu was embarrassed to accept other people's things so bare and light.

Gritting his teeth, Qi Shu took out something from his neck, and then gently took it off.

It is a necklace worn by a red thread, and there is a small silver leaf hanging on the necklace, or a ginkgo leaf, and the status of ginkgo in Buddhism is a treasure tree, which is very precious.

Qi Shu's necklace was personally begged for by Qi Shu when he was a child, saying that as long as he wears it, he will protect the safety of the person who wears it.

So Qi Shu has only changed the rope of this necklace a few times since he was a child, but the blade has never been lost, and for so many years, Qi Shu has lived smoothly.

In the dark, Qi Shu felt that it was the reason for this red rope necklace.

"So? Isn't it too expensive? Zhao Huanting was a little surprised that Qi Shu would choose to take out such a thing in exchange for giving it to him, after all, it was worn closely.

"This is given by the eminent monks in the temple, it is very, very effective, if you don't dislike it, you will accept it, it can be regarded as my heart." Previously, Zhao Huanting said that Qi Shu didn't pay enough attention to her and was not sincere, which made Qi Shu involuntarily want to do something to prove that she was also sincere.

"Of course I won't dislike it, Shu'er, you can help me put it on, how about it?" Zhao Huanting said happily.

"Okay."

In the blink of an eye, the necklace taken off from his neck was already hanging on Zhao Huanting's body in a blink of an eye.

When their eyes met, Qi Shu smiled gracefully, as if she was very satisfied with such an exchange, but she inadvertently missed Zhao Huanting's flickering and slightly complicated eyes.
