Seeing Duan Jiu standing there, Xiao Niao ran over with the candy man and took Duan Jiu's arm and said, "Brother Jiu, what are you doing standing here? The fireworks are about to start.
I made a reservation at Linjiang Pavilion. Shall we go to Linjiang Pavilion to watch the fireworks together? They all said that the location of Linjiang Pavilion is very good, and we will definitely be able to have a panoramic view of the fireworks."
There was no emotion on Duan Jiu's face, but when Xiao Niao Niao was about to follow Duan Jiu's line of sight, Duan Jiu still subconsciously pulled Xiao Niao Niao.
Duan Jiu didn't know why. He knew clearly that Jiang Fang had someone else in his heart, but he still subconsciously wanted to protect her.
Duan Jiu took Xiao Niao Niao and was about to leave. Xiao Niao Niao, who didn't know why, was very happy. In the past, Duan Jiu was lukewarm towards him, like a stranger, but occasionally he would care.
Today was indeed the only time that Duan Jiu agreed to go out of the palace to play with him alone, and he still caught up with the fireworks of the Qiqiao Festival.
Xiao Niao was extremely happy. She originally thought that Duan Jiu would reject her this time, but she didn't expect that Duan Jiu would agree so easily.
Perhaps because he was too happy, Xiao Niao did not notice that Duan Jiu was lacking in interest along the way, especially just now, when his whole person seemed to be covered with a layer of sadness, condensed between his eyebrows.
Jiang Fang felt the departure of the gaze, so he turned his head to look at where Duan Jiu was standing, and saw Xiao Niao holding Duan Jiu's arm and walking together towards the Linjiang Pavilion.
When the crowd almost dispersed, Xiao Yao let Jiang Fang go and said, "I just heard they said that fireworks were going to be set off by the river. No wonder there are so many people in Linjiang Pavilion.
The location of Linjiang Pavilion is really good, but at this time, I'm afraid there is no location anymore, otherwise drinking wine and watching the fireworks in Linjiang Pavilion is really a beautiful thing."
Jiang Fang had long since lost his thoughts, so did Duan Jiu and Xiao Niaoxiao go to Linjiang Pavilion to watch the fireworks together just now? Jiang Fang only felt a sad emotion spreading in his heart.
Banxia looked at Jiang Fang and asked, "Miss, why do you look so bad? Is it because you feel unwell?"
Jiang Fang shook his head, and then said: "Use my identity to reserve a place in Linjiang Pavilion. Normally, I heard that one or two private rooms will be reserved."
Banxia looked at Jiang Fang's eyes and immediately understood that Linjiang Pavilion was usually visited by officials from the court. Jiang Fang had heard that Jiang Huaigu also came here often.
According to Jiang Huaigu's temperament, he would probably leave a private room inside. Although Jiang Huaigu's status is not as good as before, the owner of this private room naturally does not dare to give it to anyone at will.
Therefore, Jiang Fang felt that Jiang Huaigu's Najajian should still be there. Currently, he was Empress Dowager Jiang's only legitimate daughter, and her status was worthy of that Najajian.
Xiao Yao asked in shock: "I am afraid that Linjiang Pavilion has been fully booked for a long time. Whose girl are you from? Can you still grab a seat?"
Jiang Fang said: "You have been in the world for so long and you don't understand this? This is a marketing routine. There will be fireworks by the river these days, and Linjiang Pavilion is naturally the best place to watch them.
So there will definitely be people who have made reservations early, but for a restaurant as big as Linjiang Pavilion, if the price is raised just because of such a small fireworks display, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do business in the future.
Therefore, they should reserve a few better private rooms for themselves. Firstly, it is a favor to those high-ranking officials who have not reserved a seat, and they will have a backer to handle things in the future.
There are also some who are probably just trying to make money, raising prices, and making a small fortune from small and medium-sized enterprises. Those who know about these will naturally know, and those who don’t know probably don’t know. I’ll ask Banxia to ask if they have any.
.”
Xiao Yao couldn't help but applaud, and then sighed: "You really don't look like this young lady raised in a boudoir by an ordinary family. With such a brain, if you were a man, your future would be limitless."
Jiang Fang said: "Does this have anything to do with men and women? People with talents are like gold buried deep in the sand. Sooner or later they will shine.
Gender should not be an obstacle that restricts talented people from shining. We are all human beings. If men can do it, women can naturally do it."
After saying that, Jiang Fang raised his legs and walked in the direction of Linjiang Pavilion. Xiao Yao froze behind for a while and quickly chased after him.
When Jiang Fang came in, Banxia was waiting at the door. After seeing Jiang Fang, Banxia hurriedly went up and whispered in Jiang Fang's ear: "Miss, I have already arranged it, and I told you not to leak it.
Your identity.”
Jiang Fang nodded and then said: "Lead the way."
After saying that, the waiter took the three of them to the third floor of Linjiang Pavilion. The location was extremely good. Among the restaurants in the capital, only Linjiang Pavilion was the only one with three floors.
In ancient times, there was no concrete, and three floors were already very good. They were all made of wood. If they were too high, they would easily collapse.
There are not many private rooms on the third floor of Linjiang Pavilion. They are all reserved by some well-known figures, so they are naturally quiet and luxurious.
After coming up, Xiao Yao sighed: "What you said is indeed right, but look at this private room, how much money did you spend to book it?"
Jiang Fang personally poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yao, and then said: "You don't have to worry about this, as long as you know that I am repaying you.
And it can be regarded as a show of friendship as a landlord. You have come all the way to the capital, so naturally I can't treat you badly. I will keep my word today. You can eat as much as you want, as long as you are happy."
Xiao Yao is not polite, he is already sitting in such a nice private room. If he still skimps on food and drink, he would be very sorry for this private room.
After ordering the food and drinks, Jiang Fang asked Banxia to sit over, but Banxia refused. Jiang Fang didn't force it, he just said: "There is no one else here today. We have experienced life and death. It doesn't matter if we have a meal."
of."
Banxia lowered her head, still not daring to come forward. Jiang Fang also knew that the rules that had imprisoned them for half their lives would not disappear all at once, so he did not continue talking and just looked up at the scenery in the distance.
After a while, the dishes were all served. Jiang Fang held the wine glass and said, "Brother Xiao, then I'll toast you!"
Xiao Yao said: "I'm not used to being called so unfamiliar. I call you little sister, and you just call me Xiao Yao."
After saying that, Xiao Yao also raised his wine glass. Just when the two glasses were about to collide, a loud noise was made by the riverside, and for a while the sky by the riverside was illuminated by fireworks.
Fireworks lit up one after another in the darkness, white and red, and they bloomed very brilliantly. Jiang Fang knew that gunpowder in ancient China was used to make fireworks, so his craftsmanship was indeed very exquisite.
The fireworks were blooming one after another in the sky, and they were very beautiful. However, Xiao Yao said, "It's such a pity that you are watching the fireworks here with a rough guy like me."
Jiang Fang shook his head and said, "Drinking with friends is the most rare thing."
