The Regent's Tender Darling

"Then let's go."

Just as he was about to go to the door of the tea house, the waiter at the door who was soliciting business came over immediately with his eyes lit up.

Those who open the door to do business are naturally discerning, and they know what kind of elegant room to take them to by looking at their clothes.

The waiter took Lin Jiaojiao to the best private room in the teahouse. It was unique and quiet inside. Once the window was opened, it was not the bustling scene on the street, but the small bamboo forest behind the teahouse and the bamboo leaves in the jade vase in the room. complement each other.

After ordering a pot of tea and some exquisite tea snacks, Lin Jiaojiao began to sit quietly and wait. She rubbed the edge of the jade cup with her fingertips and looked sideways at the bamboo leaves swaying in the wind. In a place like this, just sitting , which makes people calm.

"Mom, this is so delicious." Xuemei said and stuffed another piece of plum blossom-shaped pastry into her mouth, chewing it until her whole face bulged.

Lin Jiaojiao came back to her senses. The tea in the cup in her hand had cooled down a lot. She raised her eyebrows when she saw that there were only three plates of pastries left, but now only less than half of the plate was left.

Especially Xuemei looked like she was enjoying her meal. She also reached out and took a piece. "Is it so delicious?" After saying that, she broke off a small piece and put it in her mouth.

He couldn't help but frown: "It's too sweet."

I don’t know what kind of pastry it is. It’s okay to have a sweeter pastry with tea, but eating it dry is still too sweet.

Only Xuemei loves sweets, and this one doesn't taste too strong at all.

"Have a drink of tea. Be careful of having a toothache like me after eating so much." She poured a cup of tea for Xuemei, handed it over and said, "This plum blossoms fried in snow water has a unique taste."

After hearing this, Xuemei smelled the tea cup, chewed the cake in her mouth, took a bite, tasted it carefully, and finally shook her head and said, "I can't taste it."

She actually felt that it was no different from boiling it in well water, and she couldn't tell the difference at all.

"You, how can you feel bored drinking tea?" Lin Jiaojiao shook her head helplessly, but looking at Xuemei eating, she felt that she was in a good mood.

It's like going back to childhood. In addition to playing all day long, we also eat and drink together.

Xuemei had almost finished eating, so she stood up from beside her, put away the empty pastry plate, and then said, "Slave, please go outside and show your Majesty."

"Yeah." She nodded.

As soon as Xuemei left, the huge private room suddenly became much quieter. Because she was going to Suzhou Branch County, she asked Qingtao, who was a little seasick, to take another boat back to the capital on the way, thinking that it would be a good idea to let Qingtao go back to the capital. Tao Shao suffers a little.

Now she has only Xuemei, a girl, following her.

She didn't know when she would be able to return to the capital. If she was in a hurry to go back alone, Yan Sihan might not trust her.

At this time, Marquis Zhaoren came to the teahouse mentioned in the dart note alone, his face a little gloomy.

Because the dart made a small hole in the door of the inn, the inn cost him a full five taels of silver.

You must know that the imperial court only gives him twenty taels of silver a month, plus some cloth and silk.

The entire Zhaorenhou Mansion has hundreds of people to feed. If it weren't for the fact that there was a shop in the mansion that could make some money, he really wouldn't be able to feed so many people.

When I think of this, I wonder if there are too many people in the house? When I go back this time, I will take a good inventory.

Although his wife should have taken care of these things, and he didn't like to take care of them as long as there were no mistakes in the past, the five taels of silver spent really hurt his heart.
