Chapter 47 May you be safe

Now that Yun Xiaoshuang has become a shareholder of Zuixian Tower, she naturally will not refuse. She immediately agreed and told the Zhao family about the matter after returning to the Zhao family.

Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao didn't say anything, just gave a few simple instructions, but Zhao Mocheng, on the other hand, listened as she kept praising the other man, his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

If it wasn't for his instruction, how could Murong Ye give Yun Xiaoshuang such a big deal?!

Murong Ye sneezed several times in a row. He didn't know that he was scolded in his heart by the young master whom he missed so much. He diligently came to pick him up three days later.

His personal visit to Yungou Village caused a commotion among the villagers. They had never seen such a good carriage and were extremely envious of Yun Xiaoshuang and Zhao Hong.

Murong Ye thought he could see the young master, but Zhao Mocheng kept hiding in the dark and watched the carriage leave.

Then halfway, Murong Ye sneezed a series of times...

After walking for half a day, the three of them arrived at the county town. This was the first time for Yun Xiaoshuang and Zhao Hong to come here. After getting off the carriage, everything they saw was strange.

The county town is very large, with wider streets and more shops, making it appear much more prosperous than the prefecture town.

"It's not too early now. I'll take you to have something to eat first, and then I'll take you around the county after dinner."

Seeing Yun Xiaoshuang and the other two looking curious about the baby, Murong Ye couldn't help but feel funny. He didn't plan to officially start today anyway, so he might as well take them around for a walk.

"Since we have already arrived at the county seat, why not go to Zuixian Tower instead of here?"

There was obviously Zuixianlou in the county where people could eat without spending money, but Murong Ye led them to Wangyue Residence. Zhao Hong was very puzzled by such extravagant and wasteful behavior.

"You don't understand this, right?" Yun Xiaoshuang blinked at Zhao Hong and smiled, "Shopkeeper Murong is here with us to investigate the enemy's situation."

Although this is Yun Xiaoshuang's first time in the county, she has heard of the name Wangyueju. After all, it can become one of the best restaurants in the county, so it certainly has its own merits.

Murong Ye was immediately amused by her cunning appearance, and lowered his voice in cooperation.

"That's right, don't you know it yet? Wangyueju is our Zuixian Tower's biggest competitor in the county. It ranks among the top ten in the entire Tianshuo Kingdom."

So powerful? Yun Xiaoshuang was secretly surprised in her heart.

"Where does Zuixian Tower rank?"

"What do you think, Miss Xiaoshuang?"

Murong Ye asked back, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Nature is number one."

Hearing this, Yun Xiaoshuang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. What kind of idiotic question did she just ask?

The reason why Zuixianlou can be found in every town in Tianshuo Kingdom is not only due to sufficient economic strength, but also because of the taste of the dishes themselves.

In addition, now that there is a secret magic weapon like Yun Xiaoshuang, it is estimated that it will be difficult for another restaurant to displace Zuixian Tower from the number one spot.

However, the decoration inside Wangyue Ju was quite elegant, which also gave Yun Xiaoshuang some expectations.

After about a cup of tea, all the dishes Murong Ye ordered were served.

Every dish on the table is extremely exquisite, but most of them are just flashy and the taste is really ordinary, which makes Yun Xiaoshuang feel a little disappointed.

After dinner, it was still early, and after hearing that there was a lantern festival in the city tonight, Murong Ye simply took Yun Xiaoshuang and Zhao Hong to wander around the city.

In one afternoon, the three of them walked all the way from the east to the west of the city, from the East Water Gate to the West River Bridge. Even the stall selling wontons under the bridge had been passed by them countless times. Murong Ye was already exhausted.

Exhausted.

However, Yun Xiaoshuang and Zhao Hong are still full of energy and walk as fast as flying.

Seeing this, Murong Ye couldn't help but wailed in his heart, this was really unspeakable pain.

It wasn't until dusk set in the west and the sky gradually turned dark that the long-awaited lantern festival officially kicked off.

The county town seems to be particularly prosperous at night, and the streets and alleys are brightly lit, making it even more lively.

It was the first time for Yun Xiaoshuang and Zhao Hong to participate in this kind of lantern festival, so they were very excited. They guessed the lantern riddles from the streets to the end of the alley, and won a lot of prizes by winning many prizes. They had a great time.

Murong Ye was not very interested in these, but followed silently with a lot of trophies won by Yun Xiaoshuang.

After a while——

"Miss Xiaoshuang."

Murong Ye shook a bunch of various lanterns in his hand, "It's getting late, but don't forget the business tomorrow."

It was only after he said this that Yun Xiaoshuang remembered this matter. She had almost forgotten it after playing so distractedly all day today, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Then I'll take you back to the inn now."

"Don't worry."

Yun Xiaoshuang interrupted Murong Ye's words and her eyes fell on the lantern in his hand.

"It's really inconvenient to carry these things back to the inn. It's better to get rid of them before going back."

Dispose of it?

How to deal with it?

Murong Ye and Zhao Hong were a little surprised and cast doubtful looks at Yun Xiaoshuang.

Yun Xiaoshuang didn't say anything, she just smiled, took the lantern from Murong Ye and quickly headed towards the Xihe Bridge.

In the afternoon, Yun Xiaoshuang discovered that there were many vendors selling lotus lanterns next to the bridge. Now at night, there were many different kinds of lotus lanterns on the river.

The lotus lantern drifted down the water, and the gently swaying candlelight in the wick complemented the lights on the shore, making the river surface sparkling. Yun Xiaoshuang was immediately attracted by this beautiful scenery and stopped in her tracks.

She had never seen such a scene in Yungou Village, and it was rare even in modern times.

After regaining consciousness, Yun Xiaoshuang went to the lantern seller under the bridge, and with her clever mouth, exchanged the spoils she won from today's riddle for a few lotus lanterns.

Legend has it that if you write down your wishes and put them in a lantern, the lantern will float down the river and eventually bring your wish to the gods. After the gods see it, they will naturally help you realize your wish.

Although I don't believe in ghosts and monsters, since I have traveled through time, let alone come here, I naturally have to do as the Romans do, so I should take it as a good omen.

But, what wish do you want to make?

She hasn't figured out how to go in the future yet. In this case, she might as well take it one step at a time, but if she wants to...

Yun Xiaoshuang thought for a long time, and finally picked up a pen and wrote down a line of words on the paper:

May Zhao Mocheng recover from his leg disease soon and be safe and happy.

After arriving here, she accidentally became Zhao Mocheng's wife. Although there were some misunderstandings and disputes during the process, she could not get to where she is today without the support of this man.

She folded the written note and carefully put it into the lit lantern, and then placed the lantern on the river. Then she clasped her hands on her chest, closed her eyes and recited the wish on the paper silently in her heart.

No matter what the reason behind his ending up here, she hoped that he could stand upright as soon as possible and have a worry-free life.

Yun Xiaoshuang's pious look was caught in the full view of Murong Ye who was standing on the shore. The faint firelight illuminated Yun Xiaoshuang's cheeks. Such a quiet scene made his heart tremble unconsciously.

It was as if a breeze in the night had naughtily penetrated into his clothes, and then slowly penetrated into his body, passing through his heart and causing ripples.

"Murong Ye!"

It wasn't until Yun Xiaoshuang's voice suddenly came to his ears that Murong Ye came back to his senses and looked at her, his expression suddenly becoming awkward.

What was he thinking in his mind just now?

Yun Xiaoshuang is the young master's son, how could she have such thoughts?

Just when Murong Ye had slapped himself hard twice in his heart, Yun Xiaoshuang had already walked up to him.

"Why don't you go put out the lanterns?"

Yun Xiaoshuang glanced at the riverside and saw all the girls, and she suddenly understood.

"Isn't it because you are shy?"

She deliberately teased Murong Ye, but Murong Ye's cheeks instantly turned red.

"It's getting late, I'll take you back."

Murong Ye's eyes were a little dodgey when he spoke, but Yun Xiaoshuang thought he was shy and didn't pay much attention.

Yun Xiaoshuang shrugged. Since she didn't want to, there was no point in forcing it. After Zhao Hong came back from putting off the lanterns, the three of them returned to the inn.

The first day of this county trip can be considered to be over.

Early the next morning, Yun Xiaoshuang took Zhao Hong to Zuixian Tower. As soon as she entered the door, she found a neat row of people standing inside.

"Miss Xiaoshuang, you have finally arrived."

Murong Ye was also waiting here early, not because he got up early, but because someone fell asleep last night, which disturbed his mood.

"Murong Ye, your cards are not ordinary..." Yun Xiaoshuang ignored him at all, and her eyes fell on those people behind.

All of these people are strong men, and they don't look like chefs at all.

Seeing this, Yun Xiaoshuang immediately twitched the corner of her mouth and felt a little pressure in her heart.

Those who knew that they came to Zuixianlou were here to teach cooking skills, but those who didn’t know thought that they were here to cause trouble.

Murong Ye winked at Yun Xiaoshuang, and whispered a few words in her ear, "These are chefs from Zuixianlou from all over the world. They are all extremely outstanding chefs in Tianshuo Kingdom. It is inevitable that they will be a little jealous."

Arrogant."

"What if..."

"rest assured."

Yun Xiaoshuang interrupted him, with a hint of confidence in her tone, "I have my own sense of proportion."

Seeing that Yun Xiaoshuang was so confident, Murong Ye didn't say anything more. After introducing her identity to everyone, he sent someone to take them to the kitchen.

The kitchen in Zuixian Building has obviously been specially taken care of. There is no debris except basic kitchen utensils. Everywhere has been wiped extremely clean and enough space has been left.

It seems that Murong Ye has worked very hard for this teaching.

"It must have been extremely hard for everyone to come all the way, so I won't waste any more time. Let's get down to business..."

Just as she was about to get to the point, Yun Xiaoshuang was interrupted.
