Chapter 20: Why don't you be a princess?
Xiao Changdui stood two steps away from Qin Chaojiu, and his murderous aura had not dissipated for a long time.
"Lord Wang, come and sit down, all the dishes I ordered today are the best dishes in Pinjialou, this konjac is the most sweet and soft and glutinous, you can taste it!"
Qin Chaojiu said, so he picked up a piece by himself and put it in the empty bowl on the side.
Xiao Changdui sat opposite Qin Chaojiu in a deep voice, but his eyes were not on the dishes in front of him.
"Do you want this king to help?" Xiao Changdui spoke slowly.
God knows what kind of mood he had in mind along the way.
He hadn't even figured out how this woman had appeared in his dreams since he was a child, and where the indescribable familiarity and bond between him and himself came from.
How could she be okay?
Qin Chaojiu was slightly stunned, and a trace of embarrassment slowly appeared on his beautiful face.
She rubbed her little hands together and said in a small voice like a mosquito, "I want to ask the prince to settle the bill for me." ”
Xiao Changdui suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.
He only raised his eyes faintly, and there was no superfluous change of expression on his cold face.
Qin Chaojiu stood up and respectfully saluted Xiao Changdui: "Otherwise, even if I owe it to the prince, I will pay you back when I have money in the future, and Chaojiu has thanked the prince here." ”
Xiao Changdui suddenly snorted coldly: "You're still not happy?" ”
But isn't it, Qin Chaojiu's words were said in a reluctant, coaxing tone.
Qin Chaojiu was shocked.
Huh? Is she acting so obviously?
The corners of Qin Chaojiu's mouth were pulled to both sides, he tried to turn up, pretending to have a happy expression, and said: "How can it be, the prince can lend me money, I can't be happy, the prince is also a rare person in this huge capital who is willing to help me." To be able to get the help of the prince is even more fortunate in my third life. ”
Seeing her dog-legged appearance, Xiao Changdui's mood suddenly improved, he only moved his fingers, and someone went to the counter to settle the account of this table.
Xiao Changdui opened his mouth and said: "If you don't want to pay back, you don't have to force it, this meal is invited by this king, and you don't have to pay it back." ”
"Really?"
Sure enough, as soon as he heard that he didn't have to pay back the money, the depression on Qin Chaojiu's face swept away.
On the left side of the face is written "Lord Wang", and on the right face is written "It's so good." ”
Gratitude is beyond words.
"In the future, if you want to eat anything, if you want to buy, anything, you can directly record it in the account of Beimu Palace."
Qin Chaojiu's eyes lit up: "This is true, but the prince wants to take care of me for the rest of my life?" ”
The light in the woman's eyes was like an open flame in the endless night, making it impossible to take your eyes off.
Xiao Changdui nodded lightly: "It's okay." ”
The Qin Dynasty suddenly realized that this might be a good opportunity.
She took a step forward and leaned forward slightly: "Then the prince can't spend money on a woman without a name or a penny, right?" I thought of a way to get the best of both worlds, which could fulfill the prince's mind and avoid falling into the tongue. ”
Xiao Changdui didn't say anything, just stared at Qin Chaojiu with a pair of smiling eyes.
Qin Chaojiu's eyebrows curled: "Look, prince, is it okay for me to be your princess?" ”
Xiao Changdui chuckled suddenly: "What you think is quite beautiful." ”
"Eat slowly, this king still has something to do."
After Xiao Changdui said this, he got up and left.
Qingquan followed Xiao Changdui all the way, striding with his master's long legs, walking in the wind.
No one knew how shocked he was at the moment.
The sun is coming out in the west, and their master will even explain to others what he is going to do? In the past, didn't you just say go, and never say half a word to anyone?
Even, even if Second Miss Qin was so indiscriminate, their master actually acquiesced and was not angry?
Rumble!
An earth-shattering thunderbolt exploded in Qingquan's brain.
Default?
Their masters...... Silent! Recognize! Finish!
Zhujie trotted all the way back, and as soon as he arrived at the door of Pinjialou, he happened to see Xiao Changdui leaving, and suddenly knelt on the ground with a puff: "Congratulations to the prince of Beimu." ”
Zhujie stood up, although his knee was very painful, he didn't bother to rub it, and hurriedly went to find Qin Chaojiu.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Qin Chaojiu pulled the bamboo knot and sat down: "It's okay, eat quickly, although it doesn't cost money, but you can't waste it, eat more." ”
Delicious food is really a good medicine for the mood.
However, after a few bites of delicious food, Zhujie's restless heart has been completely put back into his stomach.
"Miss, did you really ask King Beimu to settle the bill for you?"
On the way back, the bamboo knots still felt floating and couldn't believe it.
Qin Chaojiu nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"But you owe King Beimu a favor, how will you pay it back in the future?" At a young age, Zhujie is worried a lot.
Qin Chaojiu smiled: "Can I make a promise with my body?" ”
Bamboo's eyes widened instantly.
I heard Qin Chaojiu say to himself: "Although I don't look good, but I'm smart, as long as I use my brain, I can give him the whole world, speaking of which, he can be regarded as Miss Gao Panben." ”
Bamboo: "......"
Zhu Jie raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chaojiu's white and perfect face in the sun, and secretly thought in his heart, Miss They, only this face can be seen.
This brain...... How much is a bit of a problem.
"Miss, aren't we going back to the Hou Mansion? This is not the way back to the Hou Mansion. As they walked, Bamboo suddenly noticed that they seemed to be on the wrong path.
Qin Chaojiu said: "What are you going to do when you go back to the Hou Mansion, let's go to General Shen's Mansion." ”
Zhujie was stunned: "Go to General Shen's Mansion?" Miss Shen doesn't want to see you, what are you doing there? Huh? Miss, wait for me, why are you going so fast? ”
The capital is prosperous and rich everywhere, but Qin Chaojiu only realized today that if there is no silver in his hand, it has nothing to do with the excitement of the capital.
The Yongchang Marquis Mansion naturally can't be counted on.
As for Xiao Changdui...... As a dignified system, it's good to listen to sweet words, how can you really eat soft rice?
She still has to rely on her own skills to eat.
After thinking about it, the only one who can help her now is Miss Shen Wu.
Shen Yajun was surprised that Qin Chaojiu would come to her so quickly, and she was even more surprised that her purpose in coming to find herself was to borrow silver.
"What do you want so much silver for?" Shen Yajun asked suspiciously.
Qin Chaojiu raised his eyes and raised a smile: "Earn money and save dowry." ”
Even if she was as bold as Shen Yajun, she couldn't help blushing, she rolled her eyes and glared at Qin Chaojiu: "As the daughter of the Hou Mansion, where do you need to prepare the dowry in person, your mother will naturally prepare it for you." ”
Qin Chaojiu snorted: "Then it's better for me to prepare myself, and I have to prepare a lot." ”
"How much?"
"Let's set a small goal of 100 million first."
Shen Yajun: "......"
Shen Yajun was very curious about how Qin Chaojiu would start from five hundred taels and earn 100 million taels of silver.
So, after lending Qin Chaojiu five hundred taels of silver tickets, he packed up and came to the street with her.
Qin Chaojiu seemed to have a plan, and immediately turned into a gambling stone shop.
Shen Yajun stood at the door and hesitated for a long time before following in.
This place, she only heard her brother occasionally mention it. Although the people here are well-dressed, they have the word "gamble" after all.
In Shen Yajun's cognition, this is not a good place.
Even the bamboo knot beside Qin Chaojiu thought so.
After Qin Chaojiu entered, the speed of his attack was very fast, but in the blink of an eye, five hundred taels of silver tickets were all spent.
At the prices of fifty taels, one hundred taels, and three hundred and fifty taels, they bought three pieces of wool.
And also invited the stone master to open the stone on the spot.
When Qin Chaojiu took Shen Yajun's hand and came out of the gambling stone workshop, Shen Yajun's people were still stunned.
"You ......" for a long time, Shen Yajun tilted his head in disbelief and looked at Qin Chaojiu and wanted to speak.
Qin Chaojiu waved his hand very modestly: "Oh, hey, isn't it just that I earned seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver, there is nothing to be surprised about." ”
"No, you ......"
"Oops, hey, it's just luck, low-key and low-key."
Qin Chaojiu said low-key, but the corners of her own mouth were about to open.
"Aren't you going to make a hundred million? Why don't we pick a few more pieces of jade? Shen Yajun was eager to try.
Qin Chaojiu suddenly stretched out a finger and put it to his lips, and said righteously: "Shh, this kind of opportunistic thing is occasionally forced by the situation, and it is a last resort, it is not good to be too greedy." ”
Shen Yajun: "......"
Qin Chaojiu took Shen Yajun to a restaurant with a bleak business, and a notice of "transfer and exchange" was posted on the door of the restaurant.
Qin Chaojiu slowly raised her eyes, looking at the four big characters "Zuixi Restaurant" written on it, the corners of her mouth turned up, and an intriguing smile was outlined.
"Shopkeeper, can this restaurant be exchanged?"
The shopkeeper recognized Shen Yajun at a glance, saluted Shen Yajun and greeted him, before his eyes fell on Qin Chaojiu's body: "This young lady, do you want to take down our restaurant?" ”
"There's this idea."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately began to tout his own restaurant.
"Although the business of our Zuixi Restaurant is not very good now, it is mainly because our chef has returned to his hometown, otherwise, we are really reluctant to sell the restaurant in such a good location, so I will take you around, if you think you can, this restaurant will give you 15,000 taels of silver." The shopkeeper glanced at Qin Chaojiu and spoke.
Shen Yajun frowned, although the location of this restaurant is not bad, but the restaurant is very old and has long been dilapidated, according to the market price of the capital, at most 10,000 taels of silver is enough.
This shopkeeper really dares to open his mouth.
Shen Yajun gently nudged Qin Chaojiu, signaling her to think about it.
Unexpectedly, Qin Chaojiu, who is now stupid and has a lot of money, responded in one bite: "I don't know when I can sign the deed?" ”
This business has to bargain since ancient times, like Qin Chaojiu, which should be a mouthful, it is a rare injustice in a hundred years.
Absolutely not to be let go.
With this idea, the shopkeeper immediately responded: "It's okay now, you can wait a while, I'll go and get the owner's seal, please wait a while, I'll come when I go." ”
When the words fell, the shopkeeper drove the carriage and went straight to the direction of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.
