The beginning of the counterattack! The time-traveling boss is famous in Beijing
Chapter 28 What comes and goes
Several people got on the carriage and set off again.
On the way here, Butler Ren told Qin Ruo that the old lady had instructed the people in the mansion to book a table at the Qingfeng Restaurant in Taihe County.
Let Qin Ruo and the other two have their meal before returning to Datong Township.
When they arrived at the Qingfeng Restaurant, the store owner, who was obviously familiar with Butler Ren, came up to them personally and warmly.
There was not the slightest disdain or contempt in his eyes for the way Qin Ruo and the other two were dressed.
After leading Qin Ruo and the other two into the private room, he enthusiastically instructed the waiter to serve the dishes.
After Butler Ren accompanied Qin Ruo to the box, he left first on the pretext of doing some business.
He said that he would come back to take her to Datong Township half an hour later.
Just by looking at the speed at which the waiter served the tea and dishes, Qin Ruo knew that this meal was not a spur-of-the-moment arrangement by Butler Ren.
It was indeed prepared in advance.
When the waiter serves the food, the owner will personally introduce each dish.
Green snail shrimp, squirrel fish, roast goose, three crisp soup, eight-treasure duck...
The shopkeeper introduced it in detail and even explained how to eat it.
After all the dishes were served, the owner of Qingfeng Restaurant politely withdrew.
Today's waves of attacks were so overwhelming that Qin Zimu and Zhou Dazhu were at a loss for words to describe it.
The two of them looked at each other. Even though they were already staring at each other in the face of a table full of delicious food and their stomachs were already singing the empty city plan, neither of them picked up their chopsticks first. Instead, they turned their gazes to Qin Ruo.
"Why are you looking at me? Eat. After that, we have to go back to the village to buy things."
Qin Ruo took the lead and nonchalantly picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks. The dishes made at Qingfenglou tasted really good.
Qin Ruo could guess what Mrs. Xie had arranged.
The old lady didn't force her to stay at Xie's house for dinner, and she even didn't allow the housekeeper Ren to stay.
It’s not that he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, but he was afraid that Qin Zimu and Zhou Dazhui, who he brought with him, would feel uncomfortable.
Qin Ruo was somewhat touched that the person she had only met once could do this.
Even if he went to the government office to receive the reward, it also meant that Old Madam Xie was supporting him.
Although he served as the housekeeper after entering the yamen, he was like a shadow and didn't say a few words from beginning to end.
But Qin Ruo knew in her heart that if it weren't for Butler Ren, things might not have gone so smoothly today. The face given by Captain Yu was given to the Xie family.
After Qin Ruo spoke, Qin Zimu and Zhou Dazhu no longer cared about being reserved.
Don’t say you’ve never eaten the dishes on the table before, you’ve never even seen them before.
The original owner, Qin Qiuxi, had followed Qin Huaizheng to Taihe County before, and had gone back and forth to Fumanlou countless times, but had never gone in to eat a meal.
It’s already the best thing to be able to go to a restaurant and have a bowl of mutton noodle soup from time to time.
Usually the father and son would spend two cents for a bowl of tea and two steamed buns, and that would be enough for a meal.
Although the dishes at Qingfenglou were delicious, Qin Ruo only put down her chopsticks when she was 70% full.
The original owner's body didn't have much fat and water, so if he suddenly ate so much meat and fish, his stomach might not be able to handle it.
At the same time, she also asked Zhou Dazhui and Qin Zimu to eat less to avoid causing physical discomfort.
Qin Zimu and the other man obeyed Qin Ruo's every word and put down their chopsticks.
At least two-thirds of the food was left on the table.
"Sister A Ruo, this gift from Old Madam Xie is too expensive. I don't want it."
Zhou Dazhu handed the purse given by Nanny Zhang to Qin Ruo.
He did not object to changing his name from Sister Qiuxi to Sister Aruo.
Although he didn't know why Qin Ruo changed her name, Sister A Ruo was now the omnipotent god in his mind. He changed his name to Sister A Ruo when Qin Ruo asked him to.
Along the way, he didn't find a chance to open the purse given to him by Nanny Zhang.
Just before dinner, he and Qin Zimu had secretly taken a look when they used the excuse of going to the toilet.
There was actually a handful of silver melon seeds inside, weighing a full two ounces.
One tael of silver is more than his family can earn in a month.
Zhou Dazhu knew his own limitations and realized that the two taels of silver melon seeds were entirely due to Qin Ruo's help.
"Sister...sister, I'll give you mine too." Qin Zimu quickly took out the purse on his body.
He had also looked at it and found that his purse was also filled with a handful of silver melon seeds, the same number as in Zhou Dazhu's hand.
Qin Ruo did not take the purse from Zhou Dazhu and Qin Zimu. "You can each keep what the old lady gave you and decide how to spend it. But as for what happened in Xie Mansion today, you can decide for yourselves what you can and cannot say and how to say it."
Qin Zimu and Zhou Dazhu nodded rapidly.
Half an hour later, housekeeper Ren came back as expected, and the owner of Qingfenglou had already thoughtfully instructed the waiter to pack up the leftover dishes of Qin Ruo and others with oil paper.
He tied the package tightly with a rope and put it in a food basket so that Qin Ruo could take it away when she left.
It was already late in the afternoon when we came out of Qingfeng Building. In modern terms, it was after 2 p.m.
On the way back to Datong Township, Butler Ren sent Qin Ruo and others talking and laughing.
Butler Ren is over 50 years old and has a good sense of humor.
Even Zhou Dazhui and Qin Zimu, two people who dared not speak much, became relaxed under the guidance of housekeeper Ren, and chatted a few words from time to time.
From Taihe County to Datong Township, the two people have changed the way they address housekeeper Ren to "Uncle Ren".
About half an hour later, Qin Ruo and his party had returned to Datong Township.
The old lady originally wanted to ask housekeeper Ren to send Qin Ruo directly back to Changhe Village, but Qin Ruo insisted on refusing.
I still have to go shopping for things, so I can't keep bothering the housekeeper Ren.
Butler Ren had no choice but to take a step back and send Qin Ruo and the other two to Datong Township.
After getting off the car, Qin Ruo bowed to Butler Ren and said, "Thank you for your care today. I am very grateful for your hospitality."
Butler Ren smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Miss Qin, you are too polite. This is what the old lady told me to do, and it is what I should do. Be careful on the road."
Butler Ren noticed that Qin Ruo was bowing and thought that this unrestrained girl was quite interesting. No wonder the old lady looked at her differently.
After saying that, Qin Ruo took out two porcelain bottles and an object in an ordinary cloth bag and stuffed them into Butler Ren's pockets.
Come and don't come, it's indecent.
While having dinner in Taihe County, she took the opportunity to urinate and took a look at the purse given to her by Aunt Zhang.
A pair of exquisitely crafted and finely textured pearl and jade earrings.
Not to mention that there were ten ingots of silver weighing one tael each under the layer under the food box.
"I noticed that you rubbed your legs and feet several times while driving the carriage just now. I think you must have arthritis. The stuff in this bottle can dispel cold, dredge the meridians and resolve stagnation. If you don't mind, you might as well try it."
"The things in the bag were obtained in the mountains before. Please pass them on to the old lady. Thank you for taking care of me today."
"I noticed that Aunt Zhang's hands had some signs of frostbite. This is for Aunt Zhang to use externally. Just apply it twice a day."
Qin Ruo gave detailed instructions to Butler Ren.
This little girl was so attentive that she even noticed his own arthritis and Aunt Zhang's frostbite. This immediately made Butler Ren's favorability towards her increase a lot.
He did not bother to be polite with Qin Ruo. He just accepted the small gift from the youngster.
It must not be something valuable, and considering Qin Ruo's kindness, he would not refuse it.
After accepting the things, Butler Ren said goodbye to Qin Ruo and others, and drove the carriage back to Taihe County.
