Let me be a concubine? I turned to someone else's arms

"Brother, are you feeling well?" Xie Qi asked with a concerned look on her face and worry in her eyes.

"It's nothing serious, my throat just itches occasionally, and drinking some hot tea to moisten it will be fine." Xie Yun answered frankly.

Wang Xu, who was standing opposite, smiled mockingly after hearing this. "Bo'an, what happened to you today? In the past, you were very low-key when you went out. If you were surrounded, you would return home disappointed and stay indoors. Why did you come out again today when you were sick?"

"..."

Xie Yun raised her eyes to look at the gentle man opposite her who was smiling, and always felt that he did it on purpose.

"I haven't been out of the house for a long time. Today I have some free time, and..." Xie Jun elegantly served the tea, stroking the porcelain white cup with his fingertips. He glanced at the man opposite him calmly and said in a calm voice, "Wu Xie, you talk too much today."

"Pfft..."

Seeing his childhood friend's attempt to cover up his mistake, Wang Xu simply sneered.

Xie Qi and Luo Qin looked puzzled. Seeing the two of them looking at him, Wang Xu stopped laughing and said seriously, "Okay, okay, let's stop talking and get ready for dinner."

The servants began to serve the meal. Xie Qi had ordered more than a dozen dishes before, and even with two more grown men, Luo Qin felt that they would not be able to finish them.

After a while, the servants served the dishes one after another. The aroma of the delicacies was so fragrant that it aroused people's appetite.

Before the meal started, Xie Qi, who was sitting opposite Luo Qin, kept saying, "Cousin Luo, this lamb leg is really good, tender, crispy, and has no fishy smell. Try it..."

"There is also this water shield soup, which is loved by people in Jiankang. You can try it too..."

"And there's more..."

Wang Zuo knelt upright, turned his head with interest to look at the young man on his left who was showing his courtesy, then looked at Xie Yun who was kneeling straight opposite him with a cold expression, and stared at Xie Dalang for a long time secretly, but he didn't see that he was not worried at all. Wang Zuo was a little confused, why did he treat him so well... ?

Could it be that he is your own brother, so you should be more tolerant?

Little did he know that Xie Yun's hands, placed on his knees, were clenched so tightly that they almost turned white.

I accidentally lost control just now and let Wang Jue see the clues. This time I must hold back. Besides, I said in the dream that there is nothing between my third brother and the daughter of the Luo family...

Wait, that's not right...

Didn't he approach the Luo family girl just to understand the dream? Why did he fall into it like a dream? He was not like himself...

Xie Yun frowned slightly, feeling a little annoyed.

Then he looked at the little girl at his side. She had a beautiful profile, a smile on her lips, a strand of hair hanging naturally by her ear, and the bright red agate earrings made her skin look even whiter.

At this moment, the other person was upright and polite, speaking to the third brother in a soft voice, looking at him with clear and bright eyes. Xie Yun felt blocked in his heart for no reason. He endured it again and again, but decided to interrupt the two of them, "It's time to eat, don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping."

He spoke in a righteous tone as if he was educating his younger brother.

Xie Qi stopped talking immediately, and said modestly, "Brother, you are right."

This time, Wang Xu was really sure that Xie Bo'an had some thoughts about Miss Luo.

The Luo family's move was really wise. This time they really climbed up the social ladder. Miss Luo was indeed capable. It had only been a short time since she went to the Xie family, but she was about to take down the heir of the Xie family...

Wang Xu raised his wine cup and lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts.

Luo Qin took the chopsticks respectfully handed to him by the servant and officially started to eat. The four of them stopped talking and ate quietly.

Luo Qin ate a few bites, feeling extremely regretful. She regretted why she didn't study science in high school, and why she chose to study liberal arts. Now, after traveling through time, everything she ate was bitter...

The salt refining technology of that era was limited, and the impurities were not completely removed, so it had a bitter taste. A lot of seasonings had to be added to dilute it, but she still tasted it.

I hate it. I hate it so much.

But Luo Qin was very satisfied with the food at Xikeju. It is one of the best restaurants and bars here, and all the dishes sold are Jiankang specialties, which are either grilled or stewed. You'll get sick of eating too much, right?

Hehe, the opportunity has come, her cooking will soon be sold all over Jiankang, it’s exciting just to think about it!

While eating, Luo Qin was thinking about what kind of store to open.

"Luo's cooking" can no longer be called "Luo's cooking". Isn't this clearly giving it to Luo's? It's better to make a fortune quietly.

What should we call it then?

Forget it, let's just call it "Ke Lai Xiang". It mainly sells stir-fried dishes, and also sells other barbecues and stews! Nowadays, people's eating habits are still stewed, so we have to take care of the habits of customers. It's best to have all kinds of dishes.

The jewellery shop is called "Meirenfang", which sounds like "Meirenfang". It mainly sells low-cost silk flowers and wooden hairpins. When it makes money, it will sell gold and silver jewellery.

Silk flowers are okay, but wrapping flowers is really tiring and requires a lot of manual labor.

With the waste silk flower fabrics, I could open a fabric shop and sell the light-colored fabrics I dyed myself...

In fact, she has more than just these ideas to make money, but the conditions of that era are limited, and many things have not yet been invented. She is not a science student and cannot invent things, which is so annoying.

Because Luo Qin was thinking about something, she bit her chopsticks unconsciously. Xie Jun, who had been observing her out of the corner of his eye, saw it and saw her thoughtful look on her face. Xie Jun was very puzzled.

What is this little girl thinking about? She doesn't even eat properly.

The three gentlemen were all from noble families, well-educated, chewed their meals slowly, behaved elegantly, and were particular about their demeanor.

More than half an hour had passed by the time they finished their meal, and there were indeed a lot of dishes left, so Xie Qi ordered Wu Lang and the others to take them away.

"Brother, Brother Wujiu, Cousin Luo, how about we go to a teahouse to have some tea and digest our food?" Xie Qi suggested.

"Follow the arrangements of my third cousin." Luo Qin said.

It's a good idea to go to a teahouse, where I can discuss with a few gentlemen whether there are any good shops and ask about the prices.

"What about the second brother?" Xie Qi turned around and asked.

Xie Yun: "Yes."

Wang Xu: "Okay."

"It's settled then! Let's go!"

Luo Qin and Xie Yun both put on veils, and the four of them went out together and went downstairs to the teahouse.

Wang Xu felt amused when he saw the man and woman covered in white gauze, one tall and one short, unable to see their figures and features clearly. However, he had to admit that in terms of appearance, Bo'an and Miss Luo were quite a match.

The four of them found a teahouse they often went to. Xie Qi ordered a pot of her favorite tea and they chatted while sipping it.

The bamboo curtain was lifted, and a few rays of spring sunlight slanted in. There were four mats in the room. The room was silent, and sandalwood was burning quietly in the bronze beast stove.

There was no one around, Wang Xu lazily leaned against the table behind him, leaning his body, and suddenly he looked more romantic. His eyes gently fell on the beautiful girl opposite him, "Why did Miss Luo go to the Xie clan school? If I hadn't met Bo An today and talked about you, I wouldn't have known that you went to the Xie clan school."

"Speaking of this, I have to thank my third cousin. It was he who introduced me to you." Luo Qin looked grateful to Xie Qi.

"Oh, that's a pity. If you had told me earlier, given our friendship, I would have been willing to recommend you to study at my Wang clan."

After Wang Jue finished speaking, he raised his teacup and glanced at Xie Yun with a smile in his eyes. As expected, seeing Xie Yun frowning, Wang Jue seized the opportunity and said, "Bo An, what's wrong with you? Why are you frowning all the time today? Are you not feeling well?"

Xie Yun lowered his head and stroked the porcelain white teacup. He paused after hearing the words, then slowly raised his head and met Wang Xu's half-smiley face. Xie Yun's face darkened slightly, "Wang Wuxie, stop it."

He felt right, Wang Zuo was deliberately making fun of him.
