The Chen family siblings were brought into the Jade Winery by shopkeeper Zhang himself. The two were arranged in a private room on the third floor. Seeing that there were gradually more people in the restaurant, Chen Zhisu asked Old Zhang to leave it alone.

They asked him to get busy first.

"Sister, have you really become the owner of this Jade Winery?"

After looking at the crystal cups on the table, Chen Pu looked around at the luxurious furnishings in the elegant room. He turned to look at Chen Zhisu, with a bit of surprise in his tone.

"Yes, I almost invested a thousand taels in." Chen Zhisu nodded lightly.

"One thousand taels?!" Chen Pu couldn't help but click his tongue after hearing this number, "Sister, this is Chu State. I would understand if this restaurant was opened in Li State... Besides, how can you be so rich?"

"It doesn't matter where it is, as long as it can make money, gold and silver can be spent no matter which country it is in." Chen Zhisu didn't care, "But actually I didn't plan to invest so much money at first, I just saw this

I changed my mind after the so-called 'planning letter' from Jade Winery... How about you invest some money in it? Just talk to Ukiha, he won't refuse you."

"Forget it, I don't have any money." Chen Pu shook his head. He really didn't have any money left on hand. Emperor Li was not as generous to him as he was to Chen Zhisu.

"Also, when did you have such a close relationship with Brother Situ? These words are a bit affectionate." Chen Pu smiled and raised his eyebrows at Chen Zhisu.

"Intimacy?" Chen Zhisu was stunned. She didn't seem to realize this. "In Chu State, isn't this word used only between relatives and friends?"

"Uh... forget it." Chen Pu felt bored when he saw Chen Zhisu's serious face, and quickly gave up the idea of ​​teasing her.

Picking up a menu on the table, Chen Pu started to flip through it. It was the first time he had seen such an exquisite menu with pictures and dish introductions. After turning two pages, Chen Pu started to salivate.

"Sister, you should come here to eat for free, right? Then I won't be polite." After swallowing, Chen Pu waved to a Hu Ji who was waiting on the side.

Chen Pu was just about to order when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the street downstairs. He immediately frowned, stood up and walked to the window to look down.

"Congratulations to the Jade Wine Residence! Duke Huaiming's Mansion presents a golden toad!"

A young man in official robes was riding a horse towards Jade Wine House. Behind him was a group of officials who were also riding horses. Behind them, there were several people who were carrying a huge golden toad statue together. Among the team

There was also a servant who was shouting and singing.

"This is a bit exaggerated." Chen Pu, who saw this scene upstairs, twitched his lips.

On the roadside, Fangdi and his group were also staring at the leader of the young man in official robes.

"It's Chu Hui. He is Zhong Liyi's confidant. He is wearing official uniform and comes to give gifts. He is so majestic and not afraid of being impeached?"

"But no one would trouble Mr. Huaiming because of these trivial things." Fang Di shook his head. For people in the Zhongli family, it is not necessarily a bad thing to mess around on insignificant things.

Jin Chan was carried to the side of the stairs of Jade Wine House and put down. Lao Zhangtou went up to greet Chu Hui and his group with a smile on his face. Although it was his first time meeting him, he just heard clearly that this person was from Huaiming.

Government House.

What's more, many of their group were wearing official uniforms, and the official congratulations made Lao Zhangtou feel very distinguished.

The people watching on the side also started whispering. They thought that there was a lot of background behind this Jade Wine House, but they did not expect that even Huaiming Duke’s Mansion sent people to congratulate it. It seems that this Jade Wine House

The background is not as hard as usual.

Some passers-by who saw this scene began to secretly feel proud, and they had something new to talk about after dinner.

"You noble ladies, please come inside and have a few drinks in the building. I'd like to trouble you to wait for this special trip."

After Jinchan arranged the decoration, Lao Zhangtou immediately invited Chu Hui and his party to enter the Jade Wine House to have a meal.

"No, shopkeeper, we have to go back to do business so that we won't delay your business." Chu Hui waved her hand and refused, "I wonder if Master Xi is here. The eldest master has something for me to present to him."

"This... Brother Xi hasn't come yet."

"I'm here, brother-in-law, what can you give me?"

A lazy voice sounded from the side. When Lao Zhangtou heard the sound, his eyes immediately lit up. Chu Hui also turned his head to look at the source of the sound. After seeing Situ Xi, he immediately bowed respectfully and took something out of his arms.

Send a letter.

"Master Xi, this is the letter written by the eldest son to you. Please accept it. He is really busy with official duties today and cannot spare time to come here. Please understand."

"Obviously, official business is the most important thing." Situ Xi accepted the letter and put it into his arms without rushing to check it.

"By the way, Master Xi, we met His Highness the Third Prince on the way here. He should also be here to send congratulatory gifts. It's time to arrive."

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince?!" Shopkeeper Zhang exclaimed in surprise. Why did the prince even come? This was something he didn't expect.

Situ Xi nodded lightly. The two of them would work together for some time in the future, and it was expected that the third prince would come to give gifts.

As soon as he thought of this, Situ Xi saw a chariot approaching from a distance, with two honor guard lines on both sides of the chariot.

The appearance of this chariot immediately silenced everyone on the street. Most people knew that only members of the royal family were qualified to ride this style of chariot in Xuan'an, and only a few princes traveled in such a standard honor guard.

can be enabled only then.

Even the prince came to congratulate the opening of the Jade Winery. Many onlookers secretly sighed in their hearts. Today was an eye-opener.

The chariot stopped in front of the Jade Wine Residence. Sure enough, a young man wearing a python robe got out of the chariot. He looked around and smiled when his eyes caught Situ Xi.

"Brother Situ, I heard that your Jade Winery opened today and Ming Hu came uninvited. I prepared some small gifts to congratulate you. I hope Brother Situ doesn't feel shabby." Zuo Minghu first stopped Situ Xi from preparing to salute.

, and then asked the servant behind him to carry up a box of gifts he had prepared.

The exquisite wooden box was opened in front of everyone's eyes, and the box full of jade and jewelry was revealed. The treasures inside made Old Zhangtou on the side salivate.

Situ Xi was silent. He didn't know whether Zuo Minghu really didn't understand the world or whether he did it on purpose. Even if he gave such valuable gold and silver jewelry, he showed it to everyone in front of so many passers-by...

Situ Xi looked at the people around him. After seeing the box of jewelry, their breathing seemed to be quickened.
