Xiao Yue took people and arranged them according to Mr. Sheng's requirements.

After thinking about it, Mr. Sheng chose a book to commemorate the loyal ministers of the former dynasty, Xiaoyue felt that it was more appropriate for the occasion, so she agreed, asked him to go down and prepare carefully, and asked Yun Yan to accompany and serve.

At this time, the sun was already scorching outside, and Xiaoyue was also busy sweating, so she and Xu Chengchang sat down to rest and drink a cup of tea.

As soon as she took a sip of tea, Satsuki saw a bright figure at the door and rushed in in a hurry.

Because the difference between the light outside and inside the room was too great, the person who came here couldn't see Xiao Yue sitting at the table clearly, he rubbed his eyes and looked at it, "It turned out to be... He suddenly didn't know what to call Satsuki.

Xiao Yue stood up while laughing, and she found that the person who came was Wen Youyou's little girl, so she said, "Why are you in a hurry, walking so fast, and you are sweating all over your head." ”

Mu Shi wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve and asked, "My son-in-law is here?"

Satsuki said, "Yes, Childe has already come when he was about his prime. ”

Mu Shi was relieved at this time, and he said: "That's good, the guests from the house have already been sent away, and they have also been invited to come here for a banquet tonight." That's where I came to report to Childe. ”

Xiao Yue said: "There will definitely be no congratulatory gifts in the afternoon, then you don't have to go back, let's go, I'll take you over to see your son-in-law, anyway, we are short of manpower here, you stay here to serve him." ”

He nodded, and Xiao Yue led him to Biyun Pavilion.

Mu Shi saw Wen Youyou and said a little worriedly: "Childe, Steward Feng is really getting more and more excessive, he accepted all the gifts given by those officials, I remember that Gongzi clearly ordered before leaving, and those officials' congratulatory gifts should not be accepted, but he accepted them all." ”

Xiao Yue heard this, and knew that Wen Youyou was still more cautious.

Wen Youyou was not angry before hearing this, but said lightly: "Let him go, anyway, he will bear the consequences." ”

Mu Shi nodded after hearing this, and then said: "There are many officials who came to send congratulatory gifts today, and I brought all their names and posters. He took out a large stack of name cards from his pocket and handed them to Wen Youyou.

Wen Youyou took it, flipped through them one by one in his hand, and secretly wrote down these names, he took out a few of them and gave them to Xiao Yue, "If these people come to the banquet tonight, then please Xiao Yue bring them to see me." "of

Xiao Yue nodded and didn't ask carefully, so she accepted the name post.

Wen Youyou then said in a low voice: "Xiaoyue, in fact, I am very cautious about today's thank-you banquet, do you know, the beginning of next month is the day when the new emperor ascends the throne, and I don't want to steal his limelight at this time." ”

Xiao Yue listened and asked curiously, "Have you already set the date for the crown prince to ascend the throne?"

Wen Youyou continued: "Originally, it was scheduled that the crown prince would ascend the throne after the official end of the war with the secret country, but he needed to prepare some things to ascend the throne, especially when the treasury was empty and the flood had not been eliminated, so it was postponed for a few months, and it is currently tentatively scheduled for the beginning of next month. ”

Xiao Yue nodded, "I know, it won't be too extravagant to arrange the dishes today, and then you don't have to show up in the front hall, if you want to see anyone, I will take him to the backyard to meet you, and I will handle the rest." ”

Wen Youyou nodded with satisfaction and said, "Anyway, today's matter can't be caught by people and told the truth." ”

Satsuki said to me, "I know this. ”

He hummed, and Xiao Yue then asked: "Almost, it's time for lunch, Mu Shi and I will go to the kitchen to bring you some light food to eat in a while, you can rest here in the afternoon, this place is cooler and quieter." ”

Wen Youyou said: "I don't have to worry about you doing things, you can arrange it." ”

So, Xiaoyue led Mu Shi to the kitchen, prepared lunch for Wen Youyou, and then let everyone eat lunch to prepare for the afternoon's work.

In the afternoon, Yun Yan accompanied Mr. Sheng to prepare the evening notebook, the Cheng shopkeeper and his family prepared the evening's wine and food, and Xiaoyue led Xu Chengchang to the flower market.

This season, it is the season when lotus flowers are in full bloom, Xiaoyue bought a large water tank, planted some lotus flowers in it, and placed them at the door of the restaurant.

In addition, she bought some flowers and simple ceramic vases and placed them on each dining table, and suddenly there was a strange feeling in the restaurant. Satsuki felt that this feeling was particularly familiar, and it reminded her of the old Western restaurant.

As the shopkeeper, they felt that Xiaoyue's behavior was very novel, but in the end, the restaurant was arranged, and everyone thought it was very good-looking.

Before we knew it, everyone had been busy all day, and when the sky was about to get dark, officials came to the restaurant for a banquet one after another.

Xiao Yue led Xu Chengchang to receive guests in the front hall, Xiao Yue asked Xu Chengchang to arrange tables, chairs and benches at the door of the restaurant in advance, and there was a sign-in list on it, so that the guests could sign on the roster, on the one hand, it was convenient for her to call the guests, and on the other hand, she found the officials Wen Youyou wanted to see.

After these officials signed in, they were led to the corresponding seats in the restaurant and sat down for tea. Of course, as soon as the guests came, they asked where Wen Youyou went, and Xiao Yue only replied that Master Wen was entertaining guests in the backyard, so she arranged for them to sit down and drink tea.

On the other side, Xiao Yue asked Mr. Sheng to come out and start telling stories, serving tea to these guests first, and then serving the food at the unitary time. These officials didn't see Wen Youyou, but they all knew that he was entertaining guests in the backyard, and everyone was curious that this strangely arranged restaurant actually had a backyard. The front hall is so special, there are flowers and storytellers, and I don't know what kind of scene the backyard is. They all wanted to go to the backyard to have a look, but the entrance to the backyard couldn't be found without Xiao Yue leading them. Therefore, these people can only sit and drink tea, listen to Mr. Sheng's storytelling, and of course, there are officials talking to each other, anyway, for a while, the restaurant is very lively.

When Xiaoyue found out that there were officials Wen Youyou wanted to see to sign in, she asked Mu Shi to lead them to the backyard to meet Wen Youyou alone. And most of the officials are capable people who can observe words and feelings, although they are eating, drinking tea, listening to books, and chatting, but they have also discovered this strange phenomenon, so they are even more curious about the mysterious backyard.

Anyway, Wen Youyou didn't show up in public until the end of the banquet, so the guests were not angry, on the one hand, this restaurant actually invited a nationally renowned storyteller to tell stories here, and they had to eat, drink and listen to books, which was also a pleasant evening. On the other hand, they also knew that some officials had met Wen Youyou alone in the backyard of the restaurant, which meant that Wen Youyou was also in the restaurant tonight, and he was not completely rude.

Of course, they have always been looking forward to meeting Wen Youyou, the host, so even after the meal, these people are patiently waiting in the front hall, anyway, they can listen to the book, and it is not in vain. However, these guests did not wait for Wen Youyou, but waited for a distinguished guest.

When Satsuki saw this guest, she was surprised, of course she didn't know this guest, but his voice, Satsuki felt very familiar.

The person who came was none other than Wen Youyou's biological father, Prime Minister Wen.

When Prime Minister Wen just appeared at the door of the restaurant, all the officials present got up to congratulate him, and Xiao Yue didn't think about it, and directly led him to the backyard to meet Wen Youyou alone.
