Song Yutong chose a side room with a better view to sit in. When shopkeeper Yu came, he saw her lazily leaning against the window drinking tea.
There was also a bowl of white rice, three side dishes, and a pot of tea in front of him.
When Song Yutong turned around and saw Shopkeeper Yu coming in, her face was as usual, and there was no look of disgust or disgust in her eyes.
"Here we go, let's eat first."
Shopkeeper Yu, who has been the shopkeeper for so many years, is very discerning. Knowing that Song Yutong is willing to let him sit down to eat means that he is willing to have a good talk with him.
Shopkeeper Yu was not polite. He clasped his hands forward and said slightly: "Thank you!"
Then he sat down and started devouring it.
He looked like a refugee who had fled from famine and had not eaten for a long time.
Song Yutong didn't mind it at all, and she didn't speak slowly until Shopkeeper Yu had eaten and drank enough.
"Why did you deliberately frame me Qianweiju in the first place?"
Shopkeeper Yu had already guessed that Song Dong's family would ask this question, and he had already thought of an excuse for himself in his mind.
But when he actually sat down with Song Yutong, all those words he wanted to say to excuse himself were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say them out no matter what.
"To be honest with you, Mr. Song, I really want to say that this matter was planned by Shopkeeper Liu, and I just listened to Shopkeeper Liu's instigation."
Shopkeeper Yu smiled bitterly and expressed his truest thoughts.
"I owe a lot of debt to buy Xiangxiang Restaurant, but with Qianweiju in front of me, no one comes to eat at Xiangxiang Restaurant."
"The creditors are pressing hard, and the guys have to eat again. I thought that if I hired your cook, the business would be better, but the result is not what I expected. I just want to sell Xiangxiang Building to pay off the debt."
"Later, Shopkeeper Liu found me and Shopkeeper Wei and came up with this plan. I thought that by making a fuss, I could divert some customers from you and alleviate the urgent need, so I don't have to sell the Fragrance House."
"I didn't expect that you would eventually find out and things would turn out like this."
Song Yutong nodded, feeling a little more satisfied with Shopkeeper Yu.
If not for anything else, but because of Shopkeeper Yu’s frankness, they didn’t blame each other.
After all, as things have developed now, blaming each other is not only meaningless, but will also make Song Yutong look down on him.
A person who is not responsible will not be able to do well no matter what he does, because he does not have that responsibility in his heart.
Song Yutong could also tell that Shopkeeper Yu was a bit upright. If Shopkeeper Yu hadn't been so upright, it wouldn't have been easy to figure out if someone was deliberately trying to provoke the waiters.
"You came to apprentice with me because you want to be the royal chef?"
"Yes, I went from being a cook to being a shopkeeper. If it weren't for the fact that the money earned by the assistant cooks was not as much as that earned by the shopkeeper, I might have become a qualified cook now."
"Ever since I was a child, I wanted to be a royal chef and prepare food for the emperor in the palace."
When Shopkeeper Yu mentioned being an imperial chef, his eyes were always shining.
Obviously, this is really his dream.
"I'll just trust you once. From tomorrow you will come to Qianweiju to help cook, and you will be on trial for three days. I will decide whether to keep you or not based on the trial situation."
Song Yutong saw that it was getting late outside, so she asked shopkeeper Yu to go back and rest early to regain her energy and come over to help in the kitchen tomorrow.
"The kitchen still has unsold custard buns and tea snacks left today. If you are not full, go and ask Fan Peng and Aunt Li to get some for you."
"The restaurant has not sold out the food every day, and you can take back whatever you want to eat as it is easy to spoil."
Song Yutong drank the last bit of tea in the teapot, shook the empty teapot, and stood up.
"It's time for me to go back."
Shopkeeper Yu was very discerning and immediately went to help clear the table, dishes, chopsticks and teapot that he had eaten.
Song Yutong was a little surprised by Shopkeeper Yu's diligence, but she didn't say anything, so she acquiesced to his behavior.
When Song Yutong was about to leave, shopkeeper Yu called out to her.
"My boss, my name is Yu Quangui."
Song Yutong understood what Shopkeeper Yu meant. He was letting go of his identity.
From now on, he will be the apprentice Yu Quangui of Qianweiju, not the shopkeeper Yu of Xiangxianglou.
"I know, do it well."
Song Yutong encouraged him and turned around and left the wing.
After packing everything, the group of people took the carriage and returned to the mansion.
On weekdays, Song Yutong would sit in the courtyard chatting with them in the shade, talking about interesting things throughout the day, but today was particularly unusual.
After taking a shower, I hid in the house and didn't even participate in the chat at the family gathering at night.
At this moment, Song Yutong opened the Feng Ring to see if there was any letter from Cheng Hanyan inside.
A shared space ring is used as a mailbox.
Song Yutong was thinking that Cheng Hanyan hadn't written back yet, so he started to sharpen ink, pick up his pen, lay out paper, and ask Cheng Hanyan about his mood at this moment.
Being promoted to an official position is a great joy and blessing in life.
Song Yutong had just finished writing the letter and was about to put it in the space ring when she found a letter already lying inside.
So I first took out the letter in the ring and looked at it, and then decided whether to put the letter in it or not.
There was only one line in the entire letter, and Song Yutong suddenly felt that this guy was wasting paper.
But when I saw that line of words, it was sweeter than eating honey.
The exquisite dice and the red beans make me miss you deeply, do you know...
Song Yutong immediately put the written letter aside, picked up the pen and wrote a new letter of Daiyu's quotations.
What your husband said is serious. Don't forget what you said again. If you look for me to have fun today and forget to go tomorrow, I will really be heartbroken.
Your Majesty has rewarded your husband with other sisters. Are you talking about this just for me, or are you talking about other sisters?
When Cheng Hanyan received this letter, he was a little confused by the first half of the sentence.
But as soon as the latter part was combined with the first part, Cheng Hanyan understood that his wife was trying to beat him.
He smiled and shook his head. His wife was really getting more and more naughty.
Three thousand weak water, one ladle is enough to quench your thirst!
Song Yutong thought for a while, then stopped being embarrassed and put the first letter home he wrote into the space.
A moment later, another letter came from Cheng Hanyan.
Song Yutong asked him how he felt about being promoted to a higher official position.
Cheng Hanyan only replied: When the emperor conferred the title, what I thought was that it would be better if you were by my side.
Song Yutong felt that the sugar content of today's portion was a bit too high, but she liked it very much.
Before Song Yutong could think of how to reply to him, another letter came from Cheng Hanyan.
Cheng Hanyan: Feng Yi said that the emperor gave the mansion, and everyone will have to live in the mansion of General Zhongyong in the future. I will send people to renovate it tomorrow, that is, Mrs. Xinfang will bring her family to Beijing, and they will all live in the capital in the future.
.
As for Qianweiju, if it is suitable, how about leaving it to Liu Jiang's brother-in-law? Feng Yi said that you can also open another Qianweiju in the capital, and the business will definitely be better than that in Xianping County.
