Chapter 219: Invitation to Dinner

Seeing that the other party still had a little impression of him, Wei Hange made up his mind a little and continued to talk to Ye Hao.

"The little girl doesn't look like a local in Lingnan, does she?"

But in terms of appearance, Ye Hao does not look like a Lingnan person, whether it is the exposed half of her face, her speech and behavior.

Moreover, it is more like a Beijing person.

Wei Hange didn't say this, the other party has never shown her true face, and she can't figure out if she wants to hide her true identity.

Knowing how to advance and retreat, this is her way of life.

"It's true that I'm not a local, so I came here by coincidence."

Ye Hao snorted and covered up this topic.

She suddenly realized that the other party was from the capital, and maybe she had seen the original owner.

Although according to the memory of the original owner, the girl in front of him has never met, but the original owner is famous in the capital, and there should be many people who can recognize themselves.

Hearing that Ye Hao didn't want to talk more about the origin, Wei Hange changed the topic knowingly.

"Since Madame is not a local, why don't we go together and go shopping together?"

Since the opportunity is in front of her, she must seize it and use this chance encounter to find a breakthrough in the relationship with the other party.

And Ye Zhen on the other side also has the same purpose.

This girl is from the capital, and she should be familiar with the aesthetics in the noble circle of the capital, and she can help herself.

Coupled with the previous help, she remembered it in her heart.

So, the two of them wandered around North Street together.

Ye Hao went shopping this time for a purpose, so she took the other party to visit all the cloth shops, while selecting the cloth, and at the same time exploring the direction of the other party's wind in the capital.

In order to get a good impression, Wei Hange naturally knows everything and says everything.

"The wives and ladies of those princes and nobles in the capital have always admired the things in the south of the Yangtze River. If there is any good material in Jiangnan, it will definitely prevail in the capital."

Wei Hange's gaze swept over the cloth in this cloth workshop, and he didn't even stretch out his hand.

In fact, as the most prosperous Chengpingzhou County in the Lingnan region, the quality of most of the goods is already good.

But compared to the capital, it is much worse.

For example, the silk in front of them is obviously the middle and low-grade quality of the Jiangnan side, and the color is quite old-fashioned.

Lingnan is too remote and relatively poor, which leads to a standard of living that is far inferior to that of Beijing or Jiangnan.

"Gangnam?"

Ye Hao raised her eyebrows slightly, she remembered that Fu Ru'an was a native of Jiangnan and the son of the richest man in Jiangnan.

Then you can go to the other party and ask about this.

Walking around, it was close to noon.

Wei Hange took the initiative to propose that he invite Ye Hao to dine in the largest restaurant in Lingnan, but the latter refused.

Alas, she didn't want to torture herself.

However, in view of the other party's kindness, Ye Hao said that she wanted to invite the other party to the palace and cook in person.

The cloth shop on North Street is almost finished, and it's time to go back.

To be able to get such an invitation, Wei Hange couldn't ask for it, so he quickly nodded and agreed, and returned to Cheng'an Wangfu with the other party.

Others can't enter the palace casually, such as Wei Zhang, the father of Wei Hange, who handed over the post several times, but there was no movement, and he couldn't enter the palace if he wanted to.

The guards guarding the door are not vegetarians, and without the order of the prince, ordinary people have to hand over the post first to get approval.

But Wei Hange's trip was different, she was brought into the mansion by Ye Hao, where did the guards dare to stop her.

As the stepfather and stepmother of Xiao Shizi, Ye Hao and Xie Yunshu are now second only to Zhao Gaowei in the palace.

The group walked all the way to Ye Hao's courtyard.

As soon as she entered the door, Ye Hao saw Zhao Yi sitting in the courtyard with an angry face, muttering quietly.

See someone coming, Zhao

Yi changed the emotion on his face and rushed to Ye Hao excitedly.

"Sister!"

After throwing himself into the other party's arms, he hurriedly sued.

"Sister, let me tell you, that Zhao Yunqing is too annoying! Came to bother me again today, and sent a bunch of messy things to my yard early in the morning, and I lost them all!"

After speaking, he snorted heavily, expressing his disdain for this.

Touching his head with a smile, Ye Hao took his hand and walked towards the house together.

"Why did you lose it? If you don't like it, just go back. If you lose it, don't you still receive a gift from someone else? I owe someone a favor!"

Having said that, she was still quite relieved about Zhao Yi's hand.

"My sister is right!"

After listening to Ye Hao's words, Zhao Yi turned around again, ran to the door, and gave instructions to the maids guarding the door for a while.

As for Wei Hange, who had been following Ye Hao, he selectively ignored him.

For this, Wei Hange didn't feel any displeasure, but praised Zhao Yi at Ye Hao.

"Xiao Shizi is really lively and frank."

Zhao Yi and Zhao Yunqing got married, she also knew the root cause, and chose to stand on the former's side very simply.

After all, she made a statement in the garden and at the banquet.

Ye Hao smiled, her face full of doting.

"Xiao Yi is still a child, so she doesn't have to think about it so much."

For children, hate is hate, like is like, and will not be like adults, due to various interests and reasons, they have to cover up the real thoughts in their hearts.

Let Wei Hange sit in the house first, drink tea, and Ye Hao turned around and went into the kitchen by herself.

Lin Bin naturally followed her into the kitchen and went to help.

But such a move made Wei Hange's hand holding the cup pause.

She always thought that this man who followed Ye Hao and said very little was their family's personal guard.

But how can any guard go to the kitchen to help?

Just when she was full of doubts, Zhao Yi came back from outside the door, took a look and found that there was no Ye Hao in the house, and went to the kitchen without hesitation.

"Sister, sister, I want to eat meatballs today."

He shouted loudly as he ran.

This kind of behavior does not have the etiquette of a prince at all, but it seems to make people feel very warm.

Wei Hange looked at everything that happened in the courtyard in a daze, and suddenly understood why Ye Hao was worshiped by King Cheng'an as the mother of the son.

Here, there are no cumbersome rules in a big family, there are no elders who strictly urge juniors to learn and grow, only the warmth of ordinary people.

Ye Hao cooked very quickly, and in less than half an hour, she asked Lin Bin to go to the house to set up tables and chairs and prepare to eat.

Xie Yunshu didn't seem to have any signs of coming back, but it was not early now, and the other party should be able to settle lunch by himself, so he didn't have to wait for him.

When Ye Hao came out with the last soup, she smiled at Wei Hange.

"It's a little shabby, please don't be weird Miss Wei."

A simple wooden table, large and laid out in the room, not served by hordes of servants, not very delicate and beautiful dishes.

Such a banquet can indeed be called a simple word.

Even if Wei Hange was just the daughter of a five-grade official, she had never participated in such a rough banquet.

However, although the table was simply arranged, none of the people sitting opposite were lower than her.

A prince of Cheng'an's palace, a stepmother of a prince, and a man who seems to be a personal guard.

Coupled with the fragrance of the dishes on the table, it seduces people's tastes, and she has nothing to dislike.

Ye Hao's family doesn't have too many rules for eating, and they can start eating when they are served, which is extremely harmonious.

Even the maid brought out by Wei Hange was arranged to be put on the table and eaten together.

Eating some familiar tastes, Wei Hange's heart was full of nostalgia, and he couldn't help but eat more.

When she first tasted this kind of food at the banquet, she thought it was Lingnan flavor, but it was not until the second day after the banquet, when she ate in the inn, that she realized that such a delicacy could not be eaten anywhere.

After lunch, Ye Hao thought about pulling Wei Hange and taking a look at the patterns she had collected.

But as soon as she put the table away, there was a sudden commotion at the door.

"May I ask if the prince can be in the courtyard? The lord of my family invited the prince to come and dine with him."

Some timid voices sounded at the door, Ye Hao and the others walked to the door when they heard the news, and saw a maid with a young face, surrounded by several other maids, with a pitiful appearance of trembling.

The maids around her all came with Zhao Yi, the maids in the prince's room.

They all knew that their son and Zhao Yunqing did not deal with each other, and they were extremely displeased with each other, so after learning that this maid was sent by Zhao Yunqing, their faces were not good.

"It's all said, the prince has already eaten at Madame's place, you should go back and report it quickly, don't delay Madame's business."

The big girl at the head waved her hand impatiently, wanting to drive people away.

But although the little maid was scared in her heart, she still insisted on waiting for Zhao Yi.

"Go back and tell your master that the prince has eaten."

Ye Hao didn't want to embarrass a maid who was still a child, so she took a step forward, let the other maids disperse, and sent the other party away.

The little maid looked at her timidly, bit her lip and nodded, and trotted away.

"This Zhao Yunqing is really restless, so she has to find something to do."

Shaking her head helplessly, Ye Hao didn't want to pay attention to the other party, but the other party always leaned in front of her eyes, and she was inevitably a little annoyed.

Zhao Yi behind her also nodded busily, her mouth deflated, and she felt empathy.

"That's it! During class, she was always wandering around the door, and she was so annoyed!"

When he mentioned Zhao Yunqing, he was so angry that he couldn't wait to drive people out of the house immediately.

But his father taught him that his relatives should live in harmony with each other and not let themselves drive out others.

Wei Hange, who was standing at the end of the crowd, was silent, she watched this scene quietly, and her heart moved slightly.

And on the other side, Zhao Yunqing was in the courtyard.

After hearing the news of the little girl's return, she was so angry that she slapped the table fiercely.

"This Zhao Yi really doesn't give any face!"

He pulled down his face and took the initiative to show favor to the other party, but he still didn't appreciate it?!

Zhao Yunqing didn't say how aggrieved she was, looking at the exquisite dishes on the table, she instantly lost her appetite.

These dishes are all made by the chef in the dining room, and most of them are some of the most popular dishes in Beijing.

It's a pity that people don't give her face at all, and they don't come.

Just as she was so angry that she wanted to go over and question, there was another knock at the door.

"The lord of the county, the prince told the slave and maid that these gifts you gave were too valuable, and he did not dare to accept them, so as not to be scolded by the prince, so he asked the slave and maid to send them to you."

As he spoke, two or three little maids in the prince's room came out behind the maid, carrying several boxes of things into the yard.

As soon as the things were put down, several people turned around and left without hesitation.

The invitation to dinner was rejected just now, and the gift was returned, this time, Zhao Yunqing was so angry that his face was as black as coal.

"Zhao! Shine!"

The two words seemed to be squeezed out of her teeth, and all her strength was used.

And the maids who heard such an angry roar did not change their faces and their hearts did not beat, and they continued to walk calmly.
