Chapter 149: Lotus Lake Night Banquet
"Shhhh Mo Li made a silent motion.
Pull him to the side of the pavilion: "Your Excellency General, look here." ”
Thickly lined with trumpet-shaped barrels hangs along the edge and corners of the pavilion under the light gauze, with one side facing the pavilion and the larger mouth facing the lake.
It wasn't until he got out of the pavilion and walked to the center of the covered bridge that Mo Li let go of his voice: "If you talk loudly in the pavilion, you can hear it in the building." ”
"Just those barrels?" Murong Chu was puzzled, it was just a few ordinary wooden barrels, how could he still make a sound?
How to explain the principle of the megaphone to an ancient person? Mo Li rolled her eyes, and if she couldn't explain clearly, she didn't explain, so she simply changed the topic: "What does the general think of that tune just now?" ”
"I didn't expect Li'er's flute to play so well, with a beautiful rhythm and a long tune, like a whisper between lovers."
Murong Chu stopped on the covered bridge, as if he was immersed in the beautiful flute sound just now, half-squinting his eyes and reminiscing.
Finally fooling the megaphone matter, Mo Li breathed a sigh of relief and leaned on the railing to admire the beautiful man's intoxicated picture.
"Li'er, why have I never heard this kind of music? Also, the tunes you often hummed when you were in the West Camp are also very unfamiliar, where did you learn them? ”
Murong Chu suddenly opened his eyes, and the words he asked almost made Mo Li tumble over from the railing to the lake.
It is said that a lie needs countless lies to cover up, Mo Li feels that he has inadvertently dug too many pits, and if he is not careful, he will fall into his own pit, this feeling is too sad.
"That...... I don't remember that ......, General, I have amnesia, you know. Mo Li suddenly thought that she still had the universal reason of amnesia.
Murong Chu frowned slightly and was still thinking about something, and at the other end of the covered bridge, Ruoping stopped the shopkeeper Yu: "You wait here first, the master and the young lady will come over in a while." ”
The voice came faintly, and when he turned his head, he saw the shopkeeper looking anxiously towards this side, and Mo Li ran happily to the lake as if he had seen a savior.
"Shopkeeper Yu, are you looking for me?"
"Just now, many guests were asking where the flute came from, and some people said that they vaguely saw someone in the octagonal pavilion in the middle of the lake, and the flute could travel so far, it was definitely not a mortal, and they wanted to take a look in the backyard, and I asked the guys to stop it." Yu shopkeeper said.
"Whoever dares to make trouble, just throw it out." Murong Chu, who came later, had a cold face, daring to covet his little girl, that would be damned.
Mo Li was suddenly full of black lines, and threw people out, wouldn't it ruin her plan?
"Yu shopkeeper, you go and tell the guests that the back garden of Quanwei Building is about to open, and you can come in and visit at will, and a notice will be posted on the gate at the specific time. As for the sound of the flute just now, it will be kept secret for the time being, and it will be known after the opening of the park. ”
Yu shopkeeper looked at Mo Li in embarrassment, and then looked at Murong Chu, not knowing who to listen to.
Mo Li glared, patted his chest and said: "Now Miss Ben is the boss of Quanwei Building, just now it was to build momentum, this is exactly the effect I want, just do as I say!" ”
Murong Chu nodded slightly, and Shopkeeper Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and trotted all the way to the front to pass the word.
In the private room on the second floor, the Nan brothers and sisters hidden behind the curtain have a panoramic view of everything in the courtyard.
"Third brother, you won't have a crush on her, will you?" Nan Xiuwan was quite surprised when she watched her brother's gaze keep on Mo Li.
The third brother of his family has been talented since he was a child, coupled with his outstanding appearance, which has made many women from the family flock to him, but no one has ever been able to enter his eyes.
Don't look at him on the surface is gentle and elegant, but he is very arrogant in his bones, and the women who tried all kinds of ways to throw himself into his arms were cleverly thrown away by him.
I have never seen him pay so much attention to a woman, not only sending people to find out the details of others, but also trying to find out how to get acquainted with others.
Nan Xiuyu looked at the people in the garden, the corners of his lips raised a beautiful arc, and he muttered as if talking to himself: "There is such a girl in this world, it is very interesting." ”
The guests who had heard the flute that night quickly spread the news throughout the capital, and the business of Quanweilou rose to a new level.
Every day, the private room facing the back garden will be full, and there is even a situation where it cannot be booked two days in advance. Even the window seats need to be reserved.
After that night, the long-awaited guests never heard the sound of the flute again, and just when everyone's hopes were about to turn into disappointment, Quanwei Lou posted a notice.
Three days before the opening of Linglong Pavilion on the first day of July, the top 10 guests in terms of daily consumption amount will receive an invitation card to the lotus appreciation night banquet held by Quanwei Building.
The place of the lotus night banquet is in the lotus garden behind the Quanwei Building, and one invitation card corresponds to a water pavilion, each of which can accommodate eight guests.
Originally, people were full of expectations for the back garden of Quanwei Building, and as a result, Linglong Pavilion became a new topic of heated discussion in Beijing through the lotus appreciation night banquet.
On the first day of July, when Linglong Pavilion opened, Mo Li sat in the private room on the second floor of the teahouse opposite, looking at the lively scene opposite through the window.
"Miss, before this is auspicious, so many people have come, and I don't know if Xu Minglang can handle it."
Ruoping saw that the front of Linglong Pavilion was already crowded, and he couldn't help but be a little worried. After all, Xu Minglang and Xu Ermao are from the remote Zichuan County, and they have only worked in the grocery store for a while before, and now such a large store is handed over to them, which always makes people feel a little uneasy.
Mo Li hid behind the window, watching Xu Ermao busy before and after, Xu Minglang was dressed in a robe, directing and dispatching decently.
She chuckled: "Xu Minglang is a shrewd person, if it doesn't work, I'm still here." ”
Generally, when the shop opens, some noble squires will be invited to cheer, and the opening of Linglong Pavilion has not been posted to anyone except for a notice posted in the Quanwei Building.
If Ruoping was still skeptical before, when he saw the current scene, he was already convinced of his own young lady. Miss said yes, then it will definitely work.
At three moments, a string of drums sounded, the red veil covering the plaque slowly fell, the two open doors of the Linglong Pavilion opened, and four little maids in uniform blue dresses and four small maids in green coats came out from inside, lined up on both sides of the gate, Xu Minglang stood behind the door, and made a gesture to the periphery.
"Ladies and gentlemen, under the surname Xu, is the shopkeeper of this Linglong Pavilion, today the Linglong Pavilion is officially opened, the store is mainly engaged in all kinds of imported products, welcome to your visit."
A short sentence, without any verbosity, is enough to arouse the interest of onlookers.
Originally, today I came to see what kind of business Linglong Pavilion is, and the imported products sound very fresh, and everyone wants to know what this imported products are.
Ruoping in the teahouse opposite saw that the crowd had already rushed to the door of Linglong Pavilion, and he was so nervous that he clenched the handkerchief in his hand.
I saw Xu Ermao and the maid who greeted the door to lead the guests into several teams, and led the guests into the Linglong Pavilion respectively.
