Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 461 Surprise
It is not easy to find a stranger whom you have never met and know very little about, because you are not sure whether the blind mother-in-law is in Linzhou now, and whether she has started making bamboo fans. In the state capital, Zhiruo felt more and more uncertain, and even became a little nervous involuntarily.

Shaking his head secretly, Zhiruo curled his lips somewhat self-deprecatingly, nervous?Because she had expectations?Maybe this trip was generally too smooth and I gained a lot, so I was a little overconfident. Subconsciously, I was confident that I could find the blind mother-in-law, just like I successfully found Zhao Jinxiu before?

Seeing that her master had been dazed for a long time, Luoshuang didn't know what he was thinking. He poured a cup of wolfberry and lotus seed tea and handed it over: "Master, we should be able to enter the city in about half an hour. Uncle Gui will definitely have someone prepare it." Let’s have dinner, haha, I heard that there are a lot of delicious food in Linzhou Prefecture.” When we were in Nanhai, Uncle Gui said that he would recommend to them the signature dishes of the best restaurants, as well as the most famous ones in Linzhou Prefecture. Time-honored snacks.

"Indeed," Zhiruo smiled and waved a local chronicle on his hand, "Linzhou Prefecture has two treasures, both of which are famous in history. One is silk and the other is snacks." In a few years, it will be the third treasure. A bamboo woven fan was added. I don’t know if it came from the blind mother-in-law’s bamboo woven fan.

"Really," Luoshuang's eyes sparkled, "Then we really want to taste it all."

Zhiruo responded readily: "Okay."Not only Luoshuang, she is also a foodie. Isn’t the ideal of a foodie just to “eat everything”?The best snacks are always found in alleys and roadside stalls, just in time to find traces of the blind mother-in-law.

Luoying, who was driving the car, shook her head in a funny way: the master always said that he was a foodie without hesitation, and with Mr. Su who was both knowledgeable and delicious, the greedy guys in Meizhuang never concealed their love for the food. The yearning for delicious food is like winter, like frost...But Rudong can at least develop more delicious pastries for snacks and earn money, while her sister can only eat and drink with her master, haha, she can't even make soup.

The streets and alleys laid out in a Tianzi grid are the characteristics of Linzhou Fucheng, and they feel particularly neat.What particularly interested Zhiruo were the names of the streets and alleys, Peach Blossom Street, Pear Blossom Lane, Chrysanthemum Lane... they were all filled with flowers.Qi Mubai's Qi family's house is in Peony Lane, which is said to be Fugui Lane, and then the Immortal House is branched out on the most prosperous Rose Street, and Nichang House is next door.

Because it was still early, Luoying drove the carriage very slowly as soon as he entered the city gate and strolled through Peach Blossom Street where restaurants are concentrated, Rose Street where shops are gathered, Cotton Alley where craftsmen are concentrated... before arriving at Rose Street. Peony Lane is almost as wide and longer than Rose Street.Mudan Alley is divided into East and West Alleys. East Mudan Alley is home to noble people, that is, officials and officials, while West Mudan Alley is home to rich people, including wealthy businessmen like Qi Mubai.

Because the Linzhoufu branch of Dixianju was about to open, everyone was busy in the shop, and only the concierge and a few women who were cooking and cleaning were left in the Qi family's house.Fortunately, Uncle Gui had already told them and made arrangements, and the three Zhiruo people quickly settled in a relatively independent courtyard in this large three-entry house.

Sister-in-law Yang is the housekeeper in charge of the entire house, including the kitchen and cleaning. Her husband is the housekeeper of the warehouse of the Qi family store in Linzhou Prefecture.The couple were also two of the first batch of stewards purchased and trained by Uncle Tong and Aunt Tong. They were married by Aunt Tong after they arrived at the Qi family.

Sister-in-law Yang is introverted and doesn't talk much, but she is meticulous and thoughtful. She makes people feel comfortable in her words and deeds. She is neither arrogant nor sloppy. In a few clear sentences, she will tell you what you want to know and the arrangements made by your uncle. Report clearly.

"The bathroom is ready," Sister-in-law Yang said. "Young master, first have a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus wine rice dumplings to cushion the mat. After washing up, the table ordered from the building outside the building should be delivered." Osmanthus wine rice dumplings are It is a famous snack in Linzhou Prefecture, and for the table booked at Louwailou, your uncle had prepared the menu and paid the deposit a few days ago.Uncle Gui has just come from Nanhai, so he naturally knows something about the young master's taste, so Sister-in-law Yang is not worried about whether the meal will satisfy the young master.Louwailou is the most famous restaurant in Linzhou Prefecture. It is said that people today were full of praise for Louwailou when they visited Linzhou Prefecture in private.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sister-in-law Yang," Luoshuang smiled and took the food box that the kitchen woman had just sent, "You can go ahead and get busy, the master can just have us here." The branch is about to open, which is the busiest time for everyone. , the ladies in charge of housekeeping in the mansion also need all kinds of help.Zhiruo has loved eating rice dumplings with rice wine, especially rice dumplings with sweet-scented osmanthus rice, but she has to say that after living for three lifetimes, today’s bowl of rice dumplings with sweet-scented osmanthus rice and rice wine is the most delicious bowl she has ever tasted.

Luo Shuang was also beaming after eating: "No, no, it's so delicious! I must ask the kitchen for the recipe to take back. Being alone...uh...happy is not as good as everyone's happy, right?" She was very proud, Master She remembered the sentence taught yesterday and used it very well, haha.

Luoying gave her sister a funny look. It was rare that she could think of other people while eating so happily.

Zhiruo raised her hands in approval. She was not sure about the others, but Mr. Su, her three younger brothers and sisters, and Rudong would definitely like the sweet-scented osmanthus wine dumplings.She couldn't get the recipe from the restaurant outside, so there was no problem with the recipe from her own kitchen.

Uncle Gui had timed it just right. The table in the building outside the building had just arrived, and others had also arrived. His face was still full of spring breeze, with an undisguised smile reaching his eyes.

"The store went well?" Zhiruo couldn't help but be curious. The Qi family had never had any problems since the opening of the first Nichangju store. Uncle Gui wasn't so happy, right?

"Obviously?" Uncle Gui touched his old face. Is he really old?Can't hide anything?Haha, I’m so happy, and it’s in front of my own son, so I don’t have to hide it.

"Look, sir," Uncle Gui smiled and untied the small baggage on his back. Inside were three exquisite fans. They seemed to be made of silk, but they seemed not.With an inspiration in his mind, Zhiruo reached out and picked up a round fan and stroked it carefully. It felt smooth and light, but it was indeed not made of silk or brocade.

Shake the fan gently, there is a faint bamboo fragrance that seems to be there...

"Bamboo fan?" Zhiruo asked with nine degrees of certainty. There was surprise and nervousness in her voice that she was not even aware of. Did it take no effort at all?According to Qiu Yiran's description of the condition of the blind mother-in-law in her previous life and her full regret that her skills were lost, there should be no other person in the same area at the same time who had such skills, right?
