Chapter 411: Scarcity is precious
"I heard that there was an assassin in the Xiaoxiang Building that night, but fortunately Boss Wang didn't bring me in, otherwise I would have been taken back to the government for review." Song Che smiled.
Wang Ke immediately lowered his face.
At this time, Shen Wenjun took Song Che's arm and said, "Xiaoxiang Building is not a prostitution hall, it is not a big deal to go in and listen to music and drink." ”
Qin Ruo took the other hand and said with a smile: "Yes, as long as Song Lang is willing, he can go wherever he wants." ”
Lin Yue pressed close to Song Che's chest from the left, and asked proudly: "The girl in Xiaoxiang Building, can you be as beautiful as me?" ”
Jiang Xiaoli pressed close to Song Che's chest from the right, blushed and said, "Boss Song is open-minded, we all love it." ”
If it weren't for the lack of a place, Qin Huaiyu and Song Ling'er would have to come together.
Song Che sighed, quite helpless: "No way, Song has been a friend of women since he was a child, and there is no shortage of girls around him." ”
Wang Ke gritted his teeth with jealousy. Don't say it's him, which of the other male owners doesn't cast envious eyes?
Wang Ke pretended to be disdainful and snorted lightly: "What's the use of having more women?" At this year's Splendid Conference, the leader is still my royal family! ”
Shen Wenjun glared: "Don't talk too much!"
"Then let's see!"
Wang Ke left with the embroiderers.
At this time, Song Che noticed that there was a familiar figure among the embroidery girls of the Wang family, she lowered her head the whole time, hiding in the crowd, and her long oblique bangs covered half of her face.
It was that feeling of déjà vu again, exactly the same as when I saw the woman in tears when I was in the Dharma field in the past.
She also seemed to feel that someone was watching, and raised her head slightly, just in time to meet Song Che's eyes.
I confirmed the eyes, and it was someone I had seen.
Song Che winked at her, she hurriedly pretended to be blind, dodged her gaze, and buried her head lower.
"The princess has arrived!"
A shout.
Seeing a middle-aged beautiful woman in a gorgeous costume, walking into the pavilion with a spring breeze on her face, as a royal clansman, she has an innate aristocratic temperament.
The wife of Chengdu Mansion Yin, the emperor's aunt, and Zhao Yu, the princess of Minghua.
"I've kept everyone waiting."
Zhao Yu walked to the high hall and sat down, and beckoned all the famous embroiderers to sit down.
"Thank you for coming from afar to participate in this splendid conference, today happens to be the birthday of the palace, and the palace wants to take advantage ......of the celebration to open the conference in advance."
A generous speech attracted flattery and applause.
Song Che didn't think how likable this old princess was, after all, what kind of husband she had, what kind of wife she had,
After Zhao Yu's speech, he will receive the birthday gift according to the process.
Wang Ke took the lead, holding a brocade box, walked to Zhao Yu with a smile, deliberately raised it high, and opened the brocade box in front of everyone, a jade lion was lifelike.
"This luminous jade lion was obtained by chance when he was traveling in the Western Regions in the past, and it was given to Her Royal Highness the princess today, and the town house will ward off evil spirits and live forever!"
"Oh, Boss Wang is so polite...... In fact, Hongu just wants to have a lively time with everyone. ”
Zhao Yu symbolically politely said two words, but still asked the maid to accept the gift.
Wu Shouxin followed suit, offered a string of Buddhist beads, said: "This rosary is taken from the East China Sea jade, a total of one hundred and eight, and in the Jinling White Horse Temple by the incense for three years, Su Wen Gong presided over the fasting, like Buddhism, then gave this bead, I wish the princess Minghui Tong Zen, Fu Lu Shou Kang!" ”
"Okay, good, Boss Wu has a heart......
Subsequently, all the famous embroidery families gave birthday gifts one after another, and the most important ones were gold and jade treasures, and it was obvious that they had prepared early.
Seeing that the birthday gifts given by everyone were so valuable, Shen Wenjun's confidence in the cake was also a little shaken.
Song Che is not messy, rare things, naturally have to appear in the finale.
Soon, all the famous embroideries were given birthday gifts.
"What? The famous Suzhou splendid Shen family didn't prepare a birthday gift for the princess? Wang Ke saw that Song Che and the others had not given gifts for a long time, and they seized the opportunity to be angry.
Song Che stood up from his seat and said first: "The birthday gift is naturally there, but because it is too special and too fragile, I am afraid that it will be broken and the princess will have regrets in this life, so we will leave it until the end." ”
Wang Ke sneered: "Heh...... What a big breath, the princess is of noble birth, what do you want in the world, how can you leave regrets because of your little birthday gift? ”
Zhao Yu was obviously interested, and urged: "This palace also wants to see, what is the rarity of this thing, hurry up and present it!"
Song Che didn't say much and clapped his hands.
Lin Yue and Jiang Xiaoli took out the large cardboard boxes that had been prepared and placed them on the coffee table next to Zhao Yu.
"So big, huh? What's going on here? The guests were all curious and looking forward to it.
Song Che slowly uncovered the carton, and for a while, the fragrance of melons and fruits and the rich milky fragrance filled the entire pavilion, and the unprecedented peculiar shape was even more eye-catching.
"This ...... What is it? Zhao Yu was surprised.
Song Che was slightly restrained, and said first: "As Boss Wang said before, the princess has a noble status, and what can't be obtained in the whole world?" These gold and silver treasures have long been commonplace, so the grass people worked together with their wives and the two famous embroiderers of the Qin family in Tanzhou to create this 'assorted fruit and cream birthday cake' for the princess! ”
"Huh...... What should I think? Wang Ke said disparagemently: "No matter how long the name is, it is just a plate of pastries, as long as there is gold, silver and jewelry, you can buy as much as you want." ”
"You are just wrong, this cake is my unique secret production, even if you go bankrupt, you will never be able to buy a second one in this world."
Song Che didn't want to pay much attention to the laity, cut off a piece of cake and put it on the plate, and handed it to Zhao Yu with a homemade bamboo fork: "Princess, you try?" ”
Zhao Yu took the cake, forked a small piece and put it in her mouth, chewed it twice, her eyes opened wide, she forked a larger piece and stuffed it into her mouth, as if she had forgotten her identity and was reserved, and began to gobble it up, and sighed while eating:
"Hongu has tasted all kinds of court pastries since he was a child, but he has never tasted such delicious food today...... With just the right amount of sweetness, the aroma of eggs and milk hits the tongue, and the feeling is like flying freely in the sky, which is simply delicious! ”
Song Che only felt that it was expected, and he said: "Princess, the cake is like joy, why don't you share it with everyone, let's taste the delicious food together, and be festive?" ”
"Accurate!"
The maidservant divided the cake into small portions and distributed them to each of the guests, and those who tasted it gave a thumbs up.
Wang Ke was reluctant to taste it at first, but after taking a small bite, he felt ashamed.
The average age of the ancients is only in their sixties, and the cake is a craft after a thousand years.
This is called, scarcity is expensive.
