Chapter 385 Wronged
Luo Sheng quickly denied this speculation.
Based on a few self-indulgent experiences, she is overthinking.
Compared to thinking about her, King Kaiyang should be looking forward to the opening of the restaurant.
"Don't you like it, girl?" Hong Dou looked at the foolish tiger lantern, and the more he looked at it, the rarer it became.
King Kaiyang is much better than Mr. Su, the son of Laoshi, and the things he gave were not fancy at all.
"It's still interesting, let's hang it up."
Hong Dou responded with a smile, and took the lantern to hang it under the eaves of the corridor.
Keer talked about what she saw and heard at the Lantern Festival.
"That Mr. Su shined brilliantly at the Lantern Festival, and many ladies threw sachets and handkerchiefs at him..."
Luo Sheng listened quietly, holding the corner of his lips.
In this way, Su Yao can be regarded as famous, and he will have a place in the capital from now on.
I have to say that this person is very good at pushing himself.
Luo Sheng was wary of Su Yao, but without evidence, he could only be suspicious, even if he thought too much.
So wait and see what happens to this person for the time being, and it is the wine shop that really makes Luo Sheng care.
The wine shop has opened, and it is convenient to meet some people and do some things.
As people expected, during the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, Mr. Su's reputation of Jinsha spread quickly, and his talent directly overshadowed Lin Shu.
Su Yao then sent a post to get into the doors of those high-ranking officials and scholars, and it became a breeze, and everyone in the door greeted them with smiles.
It is said that Wang Mao, the great Confucian who solved the three lantern riddles, took the initiative to meet Su Yao.
For a while, Mr. Su of Jinsha was the most popular candidate for Jinshi and the degree.
The bustle did not affect Luo Sheng at all. On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, with the sound of firecrackers, a restaurant reopened.
Luo Sheng brought Xiugu and the others to the restaurant early to prepare for the evening opening.
It was only after noon, and the smell of meat began to waft out, making passers-by salivate and casting angry glances at the wine shop.
So delicious, so expensive, this is really a black shop with a conscience!
With empty pockets, the pedestrians had no choice but to cover their noses and speed up their steps to leave.
Before the door opened, Wei Han stepped into the restaurant, seeing the familiar figure at the counter, his heart that had been empty since the restaurant closed suddenly settled down.
Shi Yan came in after Wei Han, and his heart was relieved when he smelled the smell of meat wafting in the lobby.
The restaurant is closed, and he wants to go back to the palace for the New Year, which is too cruel!
It has only been more than twenty days, and his belt is loose.
Fortunately, the master asked him to continue to work in the wine shop after the year, if he stayed in the palace - I dare not think about it, I will suffocate when I think about it.
"My lord came early today." Hong Dou greeted with a smile.
Wei Han nodded slightly and walked towards the counter.
Come early, you can see Miss Luo earlier.
He calmed down for a few days and thought about it seriously. He couldn't learn to change Miss Luo's alienated attitude with sweet words. The only thing he had was a sincere heart.
He will always be nice to Miss Luo, maybe one day Miss Luo will be willing to please him.
When the two fell in love, he married Miss Luo back home.
Thinking about that possibility, I feel that the waiting is worth it.
"Miss Luo, Happy Chinese New Year."
Luo Sheng bent his lips: "Happy New Year, my lord."
Wei Han pulled a stool not far away and sat down, and passed something over.
Luo Sheng looked at the exquisitely crafted vermilion lacquer box, and was a little puzzled: "This is—"
"new Year's gift."
Luo Sheng didn't answer, and said politely: "Didn't the prince give you a tiger lamp?"
"That's a gift for the Lantern Festival, and this is a New Year's gift."
Meeting the other party's expectant eyes, Luo Sheng opened the box.
Luo Sheng was silent.
This New Year's gift is really affordable.
"For no reason—"
Wei Han interrupted Luo Sheng: "It's just a small gift between friends, it's nothing to Miss Luo and me."
Luo Sheng heard what Wei Han said, so he accepted it generously.
As King Kaiyang said, a box of golden chestnuts is nothing to them, and it would be hypocritical to refuse back and forth. At worst, let Xiugu cook a few side dishes for King Kaiyang later.
Seeing Luo Sheng accept the gift, Wei Han raised his lips and smiled, and took out a plain pouch from his sleeve and handed it over.
"This is-"
After receiving the gifts for the Lantern Festival and the New Year, she couldn't think of anything else.
"New Year's money."
Luo Sheng was stunned holding his bulging purse.
King Kaiyang gave her lucky money?
It doesn’t really matter whether you have money or not. After all, neither she nor King Kaiyang are short of money, but isn’t it too strange that King Kaiyang prepared lucky money for her?
"It is enough for the prince to give me New Year's gifts, there is no need to give lucky money..."
Wei Han gave the reason solemnly: "I am older than you."
Luo Sheng put away the lucky money with a strange mood.
The new year's money from King Kaiyang, Miss Luo probably couldn't have imagined it when she tore off King Kaiyang's belt on the street.
In addition, the New Year's gift is a golden scorpion, and the New Year's money is a stack of silver bills. How much does King Kaiyang think she loves money?
"Red beans, go to the kitchen to pack some snacks and make a pot of tea."
Wei Han couldn't help raising the corners of his lips.
It seems that Miss Luo likes his gift, and it's not in vain to think about it for a long time.
Soon the delicate and attractive pastries will be served.
Luo Sheng personally poured a cup of tea for Wei Han: "My lord, let's drink the tea first, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."
"Okay." Wei Han watched the figure disappear behind the thick cotton curtain, and then lowered his eyes to drink tea and eat snacks.
The kitchen was steaming, and Xiuyue was busy.
"Xiu Gu, have you made peanut crisps?"
Xiuyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, girl, it's already done."
"That's good. From now on, I will make this peanut cake every day until someone comes from the palace."
Xiuyue nodded, lifted the lid of the pot, took out a large piece of mutton from the cauldron, put it on the chopping board and cut it into chunks.
Today's main course is water basin lamb.
Compared to the greasyness of pork, it is natural that the tender mutton tastes refreshing during the Chinese New Year.
Especially the mutton with rotten meat and clear soup is eaten with sesame seed cakes, and side dishes such as chili sauce, green garlic, sour radish, etc., the taste is wonderful.
Luo Sheng smelled the fragrance and returned to the lobby, only to see Nanny Dou, who was next to Concubine Xiao, come in.
After saying hello to Wei Han and Luo Sheng, Madam Dou smiled and said, "It smells so good, what kind of dishes did you cook?"
"Poached mutton. Mother Dou waits for beggar's chicken to try."
Nurse Dou hesitated for a moment.
Generally speaking, a person like her shouldn't eat outside.
However, it is too fragrant, and it is getting more and more fragrant...
Nurse Dou couldn't help but nodded.
The steaming bowl of mutton was placed in front of Madam Dou, and there were two pancakes baked golden and sprinkled with white sesame seeds on a white porcelain plate, as well as a plate of chili sauce, a plate of green garlic, and a plate of sour radish.
Wei Han silently looked at Luo Sheng.
Luo Sheng smiled reassuringly: "Nurse Dou is in a hurry. If the prince is not in a hurry, let's wait until the restaurant opens before eating. The dishes will be ready by then."
Wei Han looked at Luo Sheng aggrieved.
Who said he was not in a hurry, he was just following the rules set by Miss Luo, who would have thought that an old nanny could make Miss Luo make an exception.
