The evil sister is in charge, and the mother is getting married

Chapter 121: It seems that this shopkeeper Hu also puts his heart into it
When you enter the restaurant, the first thing that catches your eye is the spacious and bright lobby. The shopkeeper's surname is Hu, a middle-aged man who looks very smart and capable. He is about ten years younger than Shopkeeper Jiang.

"Miss Sheng, you are here. The room has been arranged. Please follow me!"

Shopkeeper Hu greeted Sheng Wanqiu warmly and took her to a guest room with a balcony on the east side of the second floor.

When you push open the door, what comes into view is a mahogany octagonal table placed in the center of the room. There is a teapot and cups on the table, and a few bright red flowers in the celadon vase.

There are several ink paintings hanging on the walls of the room. They look like they were created by masters of calligraphy and painting, and they look quite valuable.

There was a large soft couch by the windowsill, and a plate of washed fruits of unknown origin on the low cabinet. The bedding and pillows on the large carved bed were obviously new, and it seemed that Shopkeeper Hu had put a lot of thought into it.

"Miss Sheng, I'm sure you're tired. The boy will bring up some hot water soon. There's also a bathroom in the inner compartment. You can shower and change first. Everything in here is new, so you can use it with confidence!"

"The food in the kitchen is ready. Once you've cleaned up here, just say a word and the food will be served to you right away."

"Manager Hu, you are too polite. Thank you. You can go and do your work first!" Sheng Wanqiu nodded and thanked him with a smile!

"Okay, I'll go down first. If you need anything, just ask the maid to help!" Shopkeeper Hu retreated respectfully.

He had to be rude, because Manager Jiang had said that this person was the master's guest of honor. If she was dissatisfied with him, his life might be separated from that of the master. He had to serve her well!
As soon as Manager Hu left, Sheng Wanqiu collapsed on the large carved bed. It was luxurious, too luxurious. The sheets, quilt covers, pillows and everything else were all made of silk satin.

These tables, chairs, benches, and this bed are all made of agarwood! They would be worth a lot of money in modern times, my God! The evil capitalists, tut tut tut! They really know how to enjoy themselves!
In the Songhe Restaurant in Sishui Town, Jiang Ping stood respectfully opposite Lu Li, with cold sweat on his face.

After this gentleman knew that Sheng Wanqiu went to Yaocheng, he kept having a gloomy face, as if Sheng Wanqiu owed him money.

Lu Li was playing with the small glass bottle in his hand. He thought he would be able to meet Sheng Wanqiu when he came to Sishui Town, but who knew that the two of them would miss each other.

Why didn’t that damn Jiang Ping make it clear in the letter? If I had known earlier, he would have gone to Yaocheng. This way, maybe he could have met the lively girl who appeared in his mind from time to time.

"Master, this is a letter from the emperor sent by carrier pigeon!" Ling Er brought Ling Si into the house and handed over a letter.

Lu Li opened the letter and took a look. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. Another time?
This time, the emperor's uncle also tried to trick him into going back. He even dared to spread rumors about the Empress Dowager's health. So he would go back and take a closer look, and by the way, let the Empress Dowager give this unfilial son a good beating!

"Ling Er, take away Shopkeeper Jiang's watermelon and take it away with him!"

"Ling Si, go and bring Doctor Ding back to the capital! Let's go now!"

Jiang Ping had a bitter face. "Alas! If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have saved the money and eaten the watermelon early in the morning!" What a mistake!
The ten top secret guards trained by Prince Ding'an's Mansion were all selected from the palace since childhood. They were carefully trained and each of them has his own unique skills. Their code names are zero and the numbers are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten!
One, three, five, seven, and nine followed the second son Lu Yu, and two, four, six, eight, and ten followed the eldest son Lu Li.

Prince Ding'an Song He was a bit of a quirk. Shouldn't the eldest son's number be one, three, five, seven, or nine? His original words were that his eldest son's aloof temperament and frail health meant he was destined to be alone, so he decided to use even numbers for inspiration, as even numbers in pairs have a more positive meaning. Lu Li sat in the spacious carriage, clutching a delicate little bamboo tube. The sight of the five small tubes tied together with red string was quite endearing.

The mouth of the bamboo tube was sealed with dry lotus leaves. Only that clever little girl could have such a thoughtful idea. Lu Li couldn't help but raise a gentle smile.

I opened the small bamboo tube and drank a bottle of it. The sweet spring water flowed down my throat to my internal organs. I felt so comfortable that my whole body felt as if it was soaked in a hot spring, warm and cozy.

Maybe nothing can be seen from the outside, but only Lu Li knows this feeling. The feeling of all the chronic illnesses in the internal organs being eliminated is only felt most strongly by those who need to take medicine all year round.

At this time, a small paper ball fell from the bottom edge of one of the small bamboo tubes. Lu Li quickly caught it, opened it carefully, and couldn't help but chuckle. This was a message from Sheng Wanqiu to him.

"Hey! You drink two bottles, and you can do with the remaining three bottles yourself. Hehe, gold, gold, I love gold!"

The small piece of paper was rolled into a small ball and stuffed into the bottom of a small bamboo tube. There was a silly Q-version kitten drawn on the back of the paper.

Lu Li looked at the kitten and thought of the little expression on her face when she spoke, and he couldn't help laughing.

Zero Two and Zero Four, who were riding on horses on both sides of the carriage, heard their master's laughter in the carriage. The latter was confused and didn't know what was going on, while the former squinted his eyes helplessly. It seemed that the master was going crazy again!

The next morning, Sheng Wanqiu was awakened by the hustle and bustle of the street downstairs. It was already dark when they came here yesterday, and there was no nightlife in ancient times, so she didn't realize that the Songhe Restaurant here was on the most lively street in Yaocheng.

He rubbed his confused eyes, got up and put on his clothes. Seeing that Dadu was still sleeping soundly on the couch, he did not wake her up. He tiptoed to the window and opened it.

At the first light of dawn, a faint pale glow appeared in the sky. The market streets were already bustling with various stalls on both sides of the street, where vendors displayed a wide variety of goods, from fresh fruits and vegetables, exquisite fabrics to handmade crafts, which were dazzling.

The air was filled with the aroma of various foods, and the breakfast stalls were busy. Steaming buns, noodles, pancakes, and fried cakes, all kinds of aromas intertwined together along with the shouts of the vendors, creating a scene of everyday life that made Sheng Wanqiu want to go downstairs for a stroll.

"Miss, why are you up so early?" Dadu seemed to smell the aroma of food. He sniffed and opened his eyes, and saw Sheng Wanqiu lying on the windowsill looking downstairs.

"Da Du, come and see, this place is much more lively than Sishui Town. Let's pack up and go downstairs for a walk!"

Du Qing'er immediately stood up and ran to the windowsill in three or two steps, sticking her head out to look, and sure enough, she also had a look of joy on her face.

"Miss, this Yaocheng is really lively! I'll go get you some water to wash up now, hehe! I'll go shopping with you!"

After saying this, Dadu quickly tidied himself up and went downstairs to get some hot water.
