Chapter 121
readx;? The two walked side by side to the restaurant, and Yin Xinrou saw a few big characters written on the plaque - "Wangxianglou". Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The name is very down-to-earth, I don't know if it's really like that, just looking at it makes me feel fragrant, but the place where Qin Hanwen will come should not be bad.
Different from the bustle outside, the restaurant was much quieter, and the shopkeeper was staring at the bill at the bar and fiddling with the abacus with one hand, not noticing the people who came in.
There were only a few tables in the hall where there were guests, and when they saw the two of them coming in, they just looked over casually.
It seems that someone knows Qin Hanwen, this person immediately got up from the chair, took three steps and made two steps, and came forward to say hello, Qin Hanwen also politely said a few words, probably saying that he was fortunate to meet the regent to come to dinner, and asked for a face.
Yin Xinrou complained in her heart: It turned out that she was an official, and she wanted to lick her ass again.
No matter where a celebrity like Qin Hanwen goes, there are a large group of people behind him who want to change their ways to tie the knot, but almost no one has succeeded, and this time is no exception, after being politely rejected by Qin Hanwen, the person left in a huff, and before leaving, he didn't forget to sneak a glance at Yin Xinrou, the look in his eyes was very complicated.
In this way, everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them, pretending to continue to eat as if nothing had happened, but in fact, they were all looking at the two of them intentionally or unintentionally, not only the two of them were noble, but in a place like the capital, there were not many opportunities to see the emperor's grandson's stomach, especially the upper-class restaurant where the powerful gathered, everyone was no longer surprised.
Compared with Qin Hanwen's noble and unparalleled status, what surprised them even more was the visual effect brought by the two standing together, which was truly peerless, extravagant, and couldn't be ignored if they wanted to.
The shopkeeper saw Qin Hanwen when the man ran by, and hurriedly put down the work in his hand to greet him, but he couldn't interject anymore, so he could only stand aside with the smiling face, and it was finally his turn to speak.
The shopkeeper said a few polite words, and then warmly invited the two to the private room on the second floor, facing the street, and opened the window to see the scene outside.
As soon as the two of them sat down in the shop, Xiao Er entered with tea and snacks, and the shopkeeper scalded the teacup with boiling water, personally poured a cup for the prince, and poured another cup and pushed it to Yin Xinrou's side, wisps of tea fragrance continued to overflow from the cup, just smelling it felt sweet, and I didn't have to think about it to know that it was the best tea in this store.
"Miss, drink a cup of tea to moisten your mouth first, eat some snacks to relieve boredom, and the meal will be ready immediately. ”
Yin Xinrou said with a smile: "There is a shopkeeper!"
"Miss don't have to be polite!" The shopkeeper always has a gentle and humble smile, and always has a good impression of the dignified and gentle woman, and can't help but praise the "good self-cultivation!"
After ordering the food and watching the shopkeeper leave with a smile, Yin Xinrou asked with some curiosity: "Do you often come to this hotel for dinner?"
The cooking skills of the chef in the Regent's Mansion should not be inferior to that of the restaurant, but how could she feel that Qin Hanwen seemed to be very familiar with this place. Besides, the Regent's Mansion is several streets away from this hotel, even if Qin Hanwen has time, he doesn't look like a person who would walk so far to eat a meal.
Qin Hanwen sat down a little, leaned back in his chair and whispered, "I used to come often. ”
Qin Hanwen took a sip of the teacup, put down the teacup, picked up Yin Xinrou's cup and handed it to her, and by the way, moved the dim sum to Yin Xinrou's side, the whole action was so smooth that Yin Xinrou couldn't help but be stunned.
"This tea is good, Arou also take a sip, this snack is also quite exquisite, come, eat a piece!"
Yin Xinrou took a sip of tea and put the dim sum back on the plate, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to like to come to this kind of place to eat, can't the chef in your house satisfy your stomach?"
A little strange looked at Yin Xinrou's joking appearance, and then said slowly: "After the mother concubine was gone, it didn't take long for me to move out of the palace, at that time my maternal grandfather was also an official in the court, and often brought me here, but the emperor was suspicious, and within a few years my grandfather also left the capital and lived in seclusion in Yongzhou, and then I rarely came here, but I inadvertently passed by a few months ago, and came in on a whim, the most recent one was last month, this restaurant fish did well." ”
Yin Xinrou somewhat understood how much ago Qin Hanwen was talking about, but she had to sigh again, being powerful is good, after having dinner last month, the shopkeeper can still remember what Qin Hanwen ate.
But the point is how Qin Hanwen alone spent so many years safely under this kind of open and secret struggle, Yin Xinrou thought, if it was herself, she might not live that long.
"Sit down!" Yin Xinrou pushed away Qin Hanwen's outstretched hand, picked up the tea on the table and took another sip, turning it around for so long, her throat was about to smoke.
"How many years have you been alone in the capital?"
Qin Hanwen reluctantly stretched out his hand, sat upright, and said indifferently: "It's been about twelve years, I've long been used to it." ”
Yin Xinrou snorted softly, and walked to the window a little bored, the faint sunset sprinkled on the bustling street, so that the whole street was covered with a layer of warm colors, lively and peaceful.
Yin Xinrou saw that there was a rock sugar gourd seller on the street, there was a seven or eight-year-old child clamoring to eat, the young mother didn't know why he pulled him away, the child pulled the corner of his mother's clothes and pouted and looked at her infinitely aggrieved, the mother hesitated for a moment and paid a copper plate to the seller, the little boy immediately smiled, stood on tiptoe to get the top one, but the height was limited, and he couldn't reach it after trying a few times, the mother touched the child's head dotingly, and gently picked up the child, and the little boy immediately pulled out one of his fancies. Then he looked at the one in his hand that didn't seem to be as big as the one stuck in the wooden stick, and wanted to change it.
The seller looked at the mother and son with some confusion, and in the end the little boy's mother did not let her son change it, and did not know what she said to her son, but the little boy happily took his mother's hand and gnawed on the sugar gourd and left.
Yin Xinrou looked at it seriously, not noticing at all that the man behind him didn't know when he had stood up and looked at this scene as well.
"What are you thinking?" Qin Hanwen's voice came.
The corners of Yin Xinrou's mouth raised slightly, and she walked over and sat in the chair.
"It's nothing, just thinking about what his mother said to him?" Because their mother and son were facing away from her, they couldn't see the shape of their mouths clearly, so Yin Xinrou was a little curious.
Qin Hanwen raised his eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "You must be scaring him, don't mess around, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"
Yin Xinrou rolled her eyes helplessly, indicating that she didn't agree with his idea at all.
"That's what you men think!"
Qin Hanwen smiled and grabbed Yin Xinrou's hand and stroked it gently.
"And what do you women think?"
"Of course it'......"
Yin Xinrou felt a little funny, suddenly stopped talking, and looked at Qin Hanwen with an extremely strange look, when did they talk about such a boring topic at the two meetings?
"What is it?" Qin Hanwen asked with a smile as he looked at Yin Xinrou.
Yin Xinrou shook her head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, you have been alone for so many years, and I don't know if you have any quirks." ”
Qin Hanwen treated gently: "There are always one or two quirks, and this will be discovered by Arou herself in the future, but with Arou in the future, everything will be different." ”
Yin Xinrou smiled faintly, she couldn't say anything touching.
After a while, the first dish was served on the table, a pot of bean curd fish, Yin Xinrou was born in the north, but she preferred spicy food, and she was also very appetizing when she looked at it.
Looking at Qin Hanwen's elegant and noble appearance, he was embarrassed to eat too fast after all.
Less than half of the dishes on a table were eaten, and most of this half was eaten by Yin Xinrou.
When she was about to check out, Yin Xinrou couldn't help but ask, "Are you...... Are you really full?"
Qin Hanwen turned his head and glanced at her meaningfully, then nodded.
After that, he went to Baoyue Building, and under Qin Hanwen's repeated insistence, Yin Xinrou ordered several sets of luxurious but unassuming jewelry on the grounds that she would not hurt the face of the man and that today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and spent more than 18,000 taels of silver on Qin Hanwen, listening to the shopkeeper's compliments over and over again, pretending to be calm but unable to hide her excited look, Yin Xinrou knew that the shopkeeper had made a lot of money.
In this regard, Yin Xinrou can only complain in her heart, being rich is capricious.
When you go out from Baoyue Tower, it is already dark, and at night, the lights are on, and the streets are lined with all kinds of simple and exquisite lanterns.
Qin Hanwen said that the capital was very lively on the fifteenth day of every month, and the curfew was a few hours later than usual.
Yin Xinrou looked down at the hands of the two of them, and became a little nervous for some reason.
Yin Xinrou thought about it in her heart, it turned out that she and Qin Hanwen realized that there was only one month and twelve days now, and everything that should have happened and what shouldn't have happened happened, and she despised herself a little.
"What are you doing over there?" Looking at the joyful and noisy crowd, Yin Xinrou leaned on Qin Hanwen's arms and asked curiously.
Qin Hanwen raised his hand, carefully protected her in his arms, and laughed in a low voice: "It seems that we are holding a game of guessing lantern riddles to win lanterns, should we go and see it?"
Yin Xinrou wanted to say that she wouldn't go, but if she didn't go, there was nothing to turn around, and it would be embarrassing to be alone with Qin Hanwen, so she nodded.
"Having fun with these people is completely different from those dignitaries, as long as I have time in the future, I will bring you here every Mid-Autumn Festival. Yin Xinrou raised her head to look at him and said with a light smile: "Okay, it's really boring in the capital." ”
Passers-by looked at a pair of temperamental men and women in the flow of people and looked back one after another, on this special day, there are many such men and women around, but they are not as noble and elegant as the two of them, and they can't help but be a little surprised.
Looking at the middle-aged man in bright clothes who was sitting on one foot on the simple platform, Yin Xinrou couldn't help but chuckle: The world is really small!
