Chapter 166: Caught by Childe

"I heard that the new delicacies of Jixianglou this time are all rare, and the one with the highest price will get it, just in case, I want to prepare more silver. This time, I will not only show my face as the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion, but also take this opportunity to build momentum for my son. Gu Xiyan brought out the words that had been prepared early in the morning.

She guessed that Wan Qinghou and the old lady were angry, and they might know Zhou Dui's identity. If this is the case, she will get the three thousand taels of silver today.

Of course, it doesn't matter if she can't get it, her real purpose is to pull the four sisters of the Liu family into the game.

The old lady nodded frequently: "Is the Jixianglou Food Festival really so good?" ”

"Grandmother didn't know that Jixianglou was the most famous restaurant in the capital, and the guests who went to the restaurant to eat were either rich or expensive. This is the first time that a food festival has been held since the establishment of the food building in Jixianglou, not only the food auction, but also the sale of various palace pastries, which will be lively. Gu Xiyan deliberately exaggerated.

In fact, the so-called food festival is also a gimmick that she will think of, and it is really difficult to predict what the outcome will be.

But since she has this idea, she will have to go to Jixiang Building later and discuss this matter with Wu Tong.

The court pastries for sale must also be prepared today. Because of the tight schedule, she wasn't sure that she would not be able to earn enough 100,000 taels for this food saving, but she would do her best.

"Since the food festival is important, grandmother will give you five thousand taels first. If it's not enough, just talk to your grandmother. "The old lady deserves to be refreshed.

Liu Junyan was jealous when she saw this, and interjected: "Grandmother, I also want to participate in the food festival!" ”

Maybe Xu Yanqing will go, since the whole city is likely to participate, it is naturally an opportunity to make a reputation.

"It's okay to participate, but be safe." The old lady didn't stop it.

"And me, I'm going too." Three other girls also came to join in the fun.

When Gu Xiyan saw this scene, she lowered her head and removed the smile from her eyes.

With these four Liu family girls who love to compare, no matter how cold the food festival is, it can be hot, and her goal today has been achieved.

"Grandmother gave the eldest sister five thousand taels of silver, what about me?" Liu Junyan looked at the old lady with blank eyes.

The old lady glanced at Liu Junyan: "Sister Jun, your eldest sister is different, she is married, this trip is to promote the reputation of Lord Zhou, you don't need to be too public, a girl who has not yet been married." ”

Liu Junyan became angry when she heard this.

Isn't Zhou Du just a three-grade household right waiter? It's not a big official, why is my grandmother so partial?

But the grandmother didn't give it to her, so she went to her mother and asked for money.

The food festival the day after tomorrow can't let Gu Xiyan be in the limelight alone, she has to participate.

It's not just Yoo Junyan who thinks so, but even Yoo Chaoyan, Yoo Hye-yeon and Yoo Mi-yeon have the same plan.

They all have some private money in their hands, and Gu Xiyan has five thousand taels of silver in their hands, so they naturally can't be less than Gu Xiyan.

Even if it's not enough, you have to find a way to ask your elders for it......

When Gu Xiyan walked out of Zaohui Hall, Qiu Shi gave her a thumbs up: "Girl, this move is high!" ”

The four girls of the Liu family usually look down on the girl, how can they not destroy it when they see the girl in the limelight this time? With the four Liu family girls who love to compare, she dares to be sure that the food festival the day after tomorrow will be exciting.

"Seeing that the time is almost up, Hu Die should also arrive, I want to go to Jixiang Building, today and tomorrow, I must have to spend it in the dining building. If Gongzi looks for me, let Shen's mother say that I will go to find Su Mei. Gu Xiyan explained in a low voice.

Autumn Fruit whispered yes.

After listening to Gu Xiyan's plan, Wu Tong glanced at Miss Gu again.

"Time was rushed. If the day after tomorrow is too urgent, you can postpone it by a day. Gu Xiyan saw that Wu Tong didn't squeak, thinking that he couldn't catch up in time.

Wu Tong was silent for a moment and said, "The girl is fine, then I am fine." It's just that sending out the news may not be available to everyone, and I'm afraid that the effect will not be good. ”

Gu Xiyan felt that this was a concern: "I urgently need to raise a sum of money, otherwise there is no need to rush so much." Since you're okay, that's it, let's start the auction at noon, and the main event is set after Shen Shi. ”

Most of the Jingguan are on duty after the Shen time, and this time is the most empty.

"The court dim sum that the girl wants to sell......"

Wu Tong spoke, Gu Xiyan said: "Today and tomorrow, Jixiang Building will not be open, I will teach you the steps of making pastries later, I am worried that there are too many diners, which will cause chaos, so I want to limit the number of diners and bid into Jixiang Building......"

Wu Tong nodded again and again.

Next, the cook learned from Gu Xiyan how to make secret dim sum from the palace, and the other staff of the restaurant went to the street to publicize it.

In fact, when they went to spread the news, the four sisters of the Liu family had already spread it through their best friends.

These people are all high-spirited, even if they are the two girls of the Liu family, they are all famous ladies.

Through the big mouths of the four girls of the Liu family, the news that Jixianglou will hold a food festival the day after tomorrow has spread in the capital as early as possible.

The next day, Zhou Du was on duty at the government office when he heard someone rumoring about it.

When he was out of the official office, Xu Yanqing also had to be on duty, and the two happened to meet.

Xu Yanqing also heard about Zhou Dui's proposal to Gu Xiyan, although he was unwilling, he still said to Zhou Dui in an atmospheric manner: "There will be a food festival in Jixianglou tomorrow evening, and the lower officials invite Lord Zhou to eat and drink, which should be regarded as a celebration of the marriage between Lord Zhou and Miss Gu." ”

Zhou Du saw Xu Yanqing's discouragement, and was silent for a moment, but he finally agreed: "Okay." ”

In addition to his personal grievances with Xu Yanqing, he felt that Xu Yanqing had a good character and ability, and Dajin needed such talents.

Back home, Zhou Du said to Qi Zhiyuan: "Go and invite Xiyan to come over!" ”

Qi Zhiyuan's heart is really anxious. But it's only been a day later, and I want to see other girls.

He communicated with Min'er, but Min'er sent a message and said that Miss Gu had gone to Su's house to see Second Miss Su.

"She actually has a relationship with Miss Su Er?" Zhou Du was a little surprised.

"Miss Gu and Second Miss Su are the same age, so it's not strange that they have a relationship."

As soon as Qi Zhiyuan's words fell, Zhou Du said, "Prepare the carriage." She hasn't returned home at this hour, and I'm not worried! ”

"I heard that Miss Hu's martial arts are profound, and with Miss Hu's protection, Miss Gu will be fine......"

Zhou Du looked over, and Qi Zhiyuan changed his tone and said: "The subordinates will arrange it, and the son will wait a while." ”

In this way, Zhou Du went to the front of Su's house.

He didn't go up to the Su house, he just waited quietly in front of the Su house, seeing the sun setting and the sky dark, Gu Xiyan hadn't come out yet, he felt that something was wrong.

"Zhiyuan, you go and ask what the situation is." Zhou Dusk is colorful.

Qi Zhiyuan immediately went to Su's house to inquire, and soon he returned to Zhou Dui to reply: "The porter said that Miss Gu did not come to Su's house today. ”

But when Min'er passed the word, it was clear that she came to the Su family, did Min'er tell the wrong thing, or did Miss Gu lie?

He thinks it's probably the latter.

I really can't see that Miss Gu looks so honest that she would lie, and she was caught by her son.

He quietly looked at Zhou Dui, whose face was a little unpredictable in the twilight.
