good meal

Chapter 227 Another purpose
Fusheng stole half a day's leisure, and the leisurely two let the boat drift on the river, cuddling each other quietly, and no one said anything to break the tranquility at the moment.The leisurely time seemed to go by so fast forever, and when the boat docked, Chu Liangrao still felt a little smug.

Huo Tainan stretched out his hand, pulled her onto the ground, and said, "Are you going back?"

After thinking for a while, Chu Liangrao took his arm, tilted his head and asked, "Is there anything you need to do? If not, why don't you play outside."

Seeing Chu Liangrao's appearance, Huo Tainan would say that he was fine even if he had something to do, and since he really had nothing to do right now, he said to Chu Liangrao, "It's just what I want."

Hearing this, Chu Liangrao smiled, and pulled Huo Tainan's hand into the carriage parked aside.

"Princess, where are you going?" the coachman asked.

"Whatever you want." Chu Liangrao said indifferently.

Hearing this, the coachman was in a dilemma for a while, what kind of random method is this, what should he do if he goes the wrong way?In the end, it was Huo Tainan who said a place, and the coachman raised his whip.

The carriage was going all the way, Chu Liangrao rested his chin on one hand and looked out through the curtains. Seeing that the surrounding scenery became more and more unfamiliar, he couldn't help but look at Huo Tainan more, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"We'll know when we arrive." Huo Tainan said mysteriously.

Looking at the sky, Chu Liangrao pulled him and said in a low voice: "It's a long way to go, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back at night."

"Since you've come out, just have fun. Someone in the house will tell your mother that she won't worry if I'm here." Huo Tainan comforted.

Chu Liangrao thought about it too, so he felt relieved.

Gradually, the carriage drove into a quiet alley. Under the slanting sun in the west, the bluestone road seemed to be covered with golden sand, which was extremely dazzling.There was already smoke rising from the houses on both sides, and the aroma of food filled the air.

Just smelling the smell, Chu Liangrao felt her appetite whetted, and she couldn't help asking: "What makes it so fragrant?"

Huo Tainan didn't reveal it, he just touched Chu Liangrao's face with a smile, with a doting look on his face.

Just when Chu Liangrao was so hungry, the carriage stopped.

Chu Liangrao poked his head out to take a look, and saw that it was a simple and small courtyard, a child was sitting in front of the courtyard, and when he saw the guests, he rushed in to spread the word.After a while, a well-dressed man hurried out and bowed to Huo Tainan and Chu Liangrao: "It turned out that it was Master Huo and the Princess who came to visit, and it really made the humble house shine."

"Brother Zhu, you are being polite." Huo Tainan said gently, "The sudden visit must have caused you a lot of inconvenience."

Zhu Yong never dreamed that he would be able to have such close contact with the princess, and he didn't know what to say for a while. After a long while, he seemed to come to his senses and said, "Please, please."

Seeing Zhu Yong's embarrassed look, Chu Liangrao smiled and said, "Excuse me." After finishing speaking, he entered the house side by side with Huo Tainan.Compared to the Huo Mansion, this house can be said to be pitifully small, but fortunately, it is cleverly arranged. Although the place is not big, it gives people a sense of openness.

But when you walk into the room, you will feel a completely different feeling. The room is full of golden light, and it looks completely different from the layout in the yard. It looks like a... nouveau riche.

Thinking this way in his heart, as a guest, Chu Liangrao couldn't say it out loud, but even so, Zhu Yong still had a big blush.The furniture that he was usually proud of made him very embarrassed at this time, but fortunately Huo Tainan and Chu Liangrao's expressions were as usual, which made his embarrassment a little better.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhu Yong proposed to keep the two of them for dinner. When he spoke, he was still nervous for a while: "Some simple food, I hope the distinguished guests will not be disgusted."

Hearing this, Huo Tainan said politely: "What did Brother Zhu say, it's our husband and wife who bothered you."

Seeing that Huo Tainan did not appear unattainable because of marrying Princess Ning'an, Zhu Yong heaved a sigh of relief and went to order someone to prepare.

Seeing that the dishes on the dining table were also inlaid with gold rims, Chu Liangrao couldn't help laughing, but what attracted her more was the delicacies on the dining table. I have to say that these delicious dishes are indeed very attractive.

Seeing Chu Liangrao's appearance, Huo Tainan smiled slightly, and personally picked out some of Chu Liangrao's favorite dishes.

Chu Liangrao was also polite, after tasting it, he was full of praise.

Seeing the sincerity of what she said, Zhu Yong said as if offering a treasure: "There is nothing to entertain people at home, but this cook is very skilled, so that I won't disgrace the face of the distinguished guests."

Huo Tainan smiled, and said to Chu Liangrao: "Speaking of which, I also accidentally made friends with Brother Zhu, and when I learned that he has a famous chef in his family, I fell in love with him."

The humorous words made the originally tense atmosphere a bit more reconciled, and Zhu Yong's demeanor became a bit more natural.

It can be seen that although Zhu Yong is a person who is trembling and respects his face, this may not be an advantage.Just this attitude of attaching importance to customers made Chu Liangrao a little concerned. If he could lure people into the store, it might be of great use.

But she was only here as a guest after all, it was really hard to say such words.

Not wanting to have a meal, Huo Tainan brought up the topic and asked how Zhu Yong did in the exam this year.

When mentioning this matter, Zhu Yong looked ashamed, and said: "I'm probably not born to study, hey."

Hearing this, Chu Liangrao's eyes lit up, and only then did he sense Huo Tainan's thoughts. It turned out that his purpose today was like this. He must have also seen that the number of employees in his store did not match the plan, so he thought of introducing him.

At this time, Huo Tainan came forward, although Chu Liangrao had thoughts in his heart, he still sat upright and didn't say much.

And Huo Tainan started as a lobbyist for building bridges. Zhu Yong was originally in the dark, but later he heard that he was doing business, and he was a little bit moved. His ancestors were in business, so there is so much gold and silver in his family. But since he became a scholar, he turned to literature, but in fact, Zhu Yong always dreamed of making use of his strengths, instead of shaking his head and reading books that he couldn't understand in the academy.

Seeing that Zhu Yong was a little bit moved, Huo Tainan clicked on it and stopped talking about it.

Zhu Yong, whose appetite had been whetted, was so uncomfortable, he wanted to reach out to pry Huo Tainan's mouth open to seek the truth, for a while he rubbed his hands on his trouser legs, and finally mustered up the courage to ask where he recruited people.

Huo Tainan revealed the news unintentionally, and said: "It's getting late, so I won't bother you."

After writing down the place, Zhu Yong said politely: "Where is that." In fact, he really wanted to ask to stay, but after all, Chu Liangrao was a female family member, and it was inconvenient to stay here, so he got up and respectfully sent the two of them to the door. outside.
