good meal

Chapter 306 Choose to wait
When Chu Liangrao said this, he not only saved face, but also educated Zhu Yong.

Zhu Yong looked ashamed, thinking that he had been working in this shop for some time, but he didn't think that there was no customer who could think clearly.

Indeed, there is no rule without rules, so how can I rely on my reputation in the store these days to open the back door for others?Thinking of this, Zhu Yong felt a little bit sorry, Zhu Xiucai looked up to him very much, so he might be disappointing.

Looking up at Zhu Xiucai, there was no blame or disappointment, only a sincere apology to Chu Liangrao.

Concentrating on his thoughts, Zhu Yong stood aside with his hands down, and didn't interrupt to say anything more.

Now almost everyone in the store had left, even the dim sum chef had left, so Chu Liangrao, who was planning to come here for some snacks, had to go to the store instead.Seeing that Chu Liangrao was just greedy and not hungry, Mother Du ordered the driver to drive the car to the next street to order food for Chu Liangrao.

After eating some hot dishes, his body became warmer. Chu Liangrao drank the thick nourishing soup, and his face became rosy in the heat.

On the other end, Ding Xiang wrapped the hand stove that had been replaced with rabbit fur again, and handed it to Mama Du.

After checking the temperature, Mother Du felt it was appropriate, so she handed it over to Chu Liangrao.

Chu Liangrao took it and put it on his lap, and said: "On such a day, it is most comfortable to drink a mouthful of hot soup. Mom, you should try it too."

Obtaining Chu Liangrao's order, Madam Du complied, and led a few maidservants to the next door to use some, and then came back to exchange for cloves.

As soon as Ding Xiang left, Madam Du couldn't help but asked with doubts in her heart: "Princess, what do you think this Concubine Xiong means?"

Touching the rabbit fur on the stove, Chu Liangrao said: "Didn't the noble concubine also say that she was so bored in the palace that she deliberately set up a plum feast?"

"But Princess..." Mother Du looked at Chu Liangrao puzzled, "Isn't it good that you rejected Concubine Xiong in front of you?"

This matter, because of the poem and words she wrote for Princess Yin Hua, Chu Liangrao's talent spread unknowingly, and even Concubine Xiong Gui who lived in the palace had heard of it.This time Concubine Xiong would invite Chu Liangrao, and she typed it out of the idea of ​​asking for a word. As for where to use it, it was obvious, it was nothing more than doing what she liked, to please the Holy Majesty.

Today, Shengshang's good calligraphy is well known to everyone, and because of this, the collection of Shengshang's calligraphy and paintings is very considerable.

Concubine Xiong was able to please the Holy Majesty because she wrote a good calligraphy, and she was able to compose a few small poems on weekdays.However, Concubine Xiong wrote about hairpin flowers that women often write. Although it is exquisite, it is a bit less majestic.

As for the deeper reason, Chu Liangrao didn't want to think about it.

She would show her skills, it was nothing more than a spur-of-the-moment, she never thought of using this energy to compose a legend of a talented woman, so she declined Concubine Xiong Gui.Of course, she also knew that although Concubine Xiong didn't show it on the surface, she was dissatisfied with herself in her heart.

But that's good too, although Concubine Xiong looks respectable, she is still a little less forbearing than forbearance. For a person who can't even hide her emotions, Chu Liangrao is not worried that she will make trouble behind her back.Such a woman won the favor and would only use her momentum to look good to others. As for the more insidious means, it seemed that the empress could do it.

Raising her hand to press her abdomen, Chu Liangrao thought to herself: No matter what else she needs to do now, she needs to rest assured to raise the baby, wait for the baby to come out, and then wait for Huo Tainan's return.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao didn't answer, and there was no embarrassment on her face, Mother Du knew that this matter was not difficult for her, so she stopped talking, and only picked the one who was happy with Chu Liangrao. Said: "Don't say it, now Mr. Zhu really looks like a shopkeeper."

"That's right." Chu Liangrao said, "Mr. Zhu now has a bearing and experience, so it's not difficult to establish his prestige."

Mother Du said again: "When I first saw Mr. Zhu, I thought he was arrogant and unreasonable, but I didn't expect him to become so steady and general. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, my mother would not have believed that Mr. Zhu would have changed so much. It’s all thanks to the princess, otherwise Mr. Zhu might still be a sour scholar.”

Chu Liangrao smiled and said, "It's not my credit. In terms of credit, Ding Xiang's ability is great." After a pause, she looked at her stomach and said gently, "This is the greatness of father's love."

Seeing that Chu Liangrao thought of Huo Tainan again, Mama Du didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only say: "It's almost the Chinese New Year, and the county matriarch hasn't come back yet..."

"Mom." Chu Liangrao looked up at Du's mother with feigned annoyance, and said, "My lord is going to fight, it's not a joke, how can you be careless? Could it be that the fight is halfway, and there is a pause in the middle? This is something on the battlefield. But no one can tell."

Mama Du didn't know, but she still pretended not to know, and said, "You are only the lieutenant general, so he is so busy. If you want to go up again, I'm afraid he will be even busier."

Smiling and shaking his head, Chu Liangrao said, "Mom, see what you said."

Mother Du laughed, as if she had seen the good news of Huo Tainan's promotion, she couldn't help but think of the big house bestowed by the emperor.Now the house has been tidied up and all the furniture has been arranged, people can live in it if they move there, but Chu Liangrao has not given the order for a long time, only leaving people there to watch, living here is very comfortable stable.

Mother Du also knew that Chu Liangrao wanted to wait for Huo Tainan to come back before moving, but if the master came back, the young master might be born, so it would be a bit shabby for the young master to be born in this house.

But Chu Liangrao doesn't think so, what she believes in is that there are thousands of mansions, sleeping seven feet at night, ten thousand mu of fertile land, and three thousand solar eclipses.The most important thing for a person is contentment.And apart from Huo Tainan's absence, everything went well for her, so she really wasn't in a hurry about moving.

Speaking of the new courtyard, I wanted to take a look at it. It was rare to go out again today. After eating and drinking, Chu Liangrao led his followers to see his new home.Different from the plain and ordinary Huo Mansion, the two stone lions in front of the Zhu Gate are full of momentum.

Entering the gate, bypassing a unique Taishi Lake mountain, is the reception hall, and two roads diverge on the side, leading to the backyard and garden respectively.This time Chu Liangrao came to see the garden.

The garden in this courtyard is different from most houses in Kyoto. A bamboo house built in a bamboo forest looks very elegant. If you can burn incense and drink tea here, I don’t know how elegant it will be.

Outside the bamboo forest is a natural gravel road. There are no extra decorations along the way, but it fits the nature of the bamboo forest.
