Shopkeeper Liu coughed lightly and finally remembered that his restaurant served more than just tiger whisker pastry.

He looked at the wild animals in the bag one by one and said simply, "I will take these chickens and rabbits at the market price plus five cents. Is that acceptable to you, young master?"

Gu Qinghe nodded. She earned about one or two taels of silver from a bag of chickens and rabbits. There was still some difference compared to the big profits made by her subordinates, but it was better than nothing.

The wild boar she hunted sold for a lot of money. All in all, she now has 120 taels of silver.

It’s enough to buy a good restaurant.

We can also renovate Aunt Gu's house and let Chang'an and Xier go to school in the spring.

Gu Qinghe took the money and took Wei Wu to dine at Qianlai Restaurant. A man on the second floor stood in a place with a wide view and watched their actions.

Wei Wu sat a little further away from Gu Qinghe. He stopped and looked towards the second floor. After taking a cold glance at the man who looked like an acquaintance yet not an acquaintance, he withdrew his gaze.

"What's wrong?" Gu Qinghe followed his gaze and then looked away as if nothing had happened.

The case of Yanzhi Flower Shop is still under investigation. Manager Wang of Haoshi Restaurant took the blame for the young master behind him, and the two young masters from the capital are still in the county government office.

I heard from Wei Wu that Liu Bai was holding the people hostage and would not let them go.

Jing Se, who came with the son of the Minister of Revenue, said something to Yu Jin and left the government office.

The door of the private room on the second floor creaked, and hurried footsteps were heard. Gu Qinghe swallowed the last bite of food and looked up, only to be hugged by a bear.

Wei Wu was so shocked that he pointed his chopsticks at the other person and said, "Let go! Men and women should not touch each other!"

His tone was too fierce. The girl in the yellow dress pouted at him, then tactfully let go of his hand and sat next to Gu Qinghe. She said to Gu Qinghe happily, "I know you are a girl. My name is Jingyi. What's your name? I was so scared in that shabby house the day before yesterday that I forgot to say thank you!"

When Gu Qinghe looked at her, he suddenly remembered that she was the girl in pink clothes who stood beside Xiaoqi after her sister stood up.

Jing Yi, Jing Se.

Gu Qinghe thought, what a fate.

She smiled at the cute round-faced girl in front of her: "My name is Gu Qinghe, and I'm very happy that the girl can leave that shabby house."

"You are Gu Jia Qinghe!" Jing Yi opened her eyes wide and said in surprise: "In the letters that my brother wrote to me these days, your name is on every one of them. I'm so curious!"

Gu Qinghe was as surprised as she was.

Probably because she was well protected since childhood, Miss Jingyi was very outgoing and said excitedly: "I heard from my brother that you also made the tiger whisker pastry yourself, you are so good, I have been craving for it these past two days.

But Jing Se, that stingy guy, only allowed me to eat three a day! He didn't allow me to have more than one. I asked Uncle Liu but he didn't give me any either. They must have ganged up on me to bully me!"

When it comes to eating, the intimate brother becomes a stingy person. It can be seen that the relationship between the brother and sister is very good.

Gu Qinghe glanced at her innocent and carefree face thoughtfully, and laughed to himself, "Master Jing didn't lie to you. There are only so many Tiger Whiskers available in a day. I just wanted to buy some, but they're all sold out."

"Ah, is that so?"

Jing Yi didn't expect that her brother finally did something to control her eating. She looked upstairs, but there was no one there.

She felt very strange because when she was in the private room, her brother stood outside and watched for a long time without coming in. He also told her that her savior was just downstairs.

How come now that she came down, he went in instead?

Jing Yi wondered, "Why didn't brother come down to say hello to you?"

Gu Qinghe was silent for a moment and said nothing.

Jing Yi looked at her, then looked upstairs, and keenly sensed something was wrong: "Did you have a fight?"

Gu Qinghe: “No.”

"It must be my brother who made you angry! He just stared at you for a long time downstairs, and this coward didn't even dare to come down to apologize. I'll go call him!"

Jing Yi's cheeks puffed up with anger, and the collagen on her cheeks made her look more like a girl next door.

Gu Qinghe raised his lips, stopped her and said, "We didn't quarrel, no need to apologize, I'll leave soon."

"Sister Gu, please don't stop me. He is a real man, and he is not the kind of person who can just watch and not apologize!"

Jing Yi ran up in a hurry, and in a moment she pulled down a tall and handsome man in green, without giving Gu Qinghe time to leave.

The two looked at each other, and both noticed a little bit of awkwardness between them.

Apart from the cooperative relationship and customer relationship, there is no intersection between them at all, and there is no question of whether to apologize or not.

Gu Qinghe smiled at him and turned to leave Qianlai Restaurant.

"Feel sorry."

An apologetic voice sounded behind him. Gu Qinghe paused and turned back to say, "Mr. Jing, there is no need to apologize. I will seriously consider the next cooperation.

Master Jing, just pay me half of the money earned from Tiger Whiskers this month by the end of the month, and Tiger Whiskers can appear anywhere after that."

Merchants value credit the most, and contracts value keeping promises the most.

The bamboo slip is no longer valid, but she can still serve this food next time she opens a restaurant.

The girl in men's clothing had a cold and distant look on her face. Jing Se pursed his lips, and his bargaining skills with the merchant seemed to have lost their effectiveness at this moment.

He didn't want there to be no contact between them anymore.

I can't express my unwillingness.

He quickly reviewed the reasons why she was angry in his mind, and finally remembered the question she repeatedly emphasized that day: "I gave you the recipe for Tiger Whiskers after reading your letter."

That day, he came back in the morning specifically to write her about this, and it just so happened that her letter solved his urgent problem.

When Jing Se saw the contents of her letter, he couldn't describe his feelings at that moment, as if they shared the same thoughts.

When Manager Wang of Haoshi Restaurant learned that his son knew the son of Qianlai Restaurant, he became malicious.

The hostage in his hand was forcibly taken away by his own master, and he didn't want to give up the huge profit from the restaurant. He inadvertently knew that Jingse had a weakness in the hands of his master, so he shamelessly whispered a suggestion.

Under the powerful, Jingse was just a businessman and could not compete with the son of a second-rank official from the capital.

He compromised.
