The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Seeing the newly renovated backyard, Shen Jiarou smiled with satisfaction.

"Yes, it looks good this way."

Each private room is given an elegant name, such as the Orchid Room, Asparagus Bamboo Room, Plum Fragrance Room, Chrysanthemum Room, Summer Lotus Room, Spring Orchid Room, Autumn Chrysanthemum Room, Winter Plum Room, Crape Myrtle Room, Rose Room, Rose Room, and Gardenia Room. There are also two supreme rooms, namely the Peony Room and the Peony Room.

There are corresponding calligraphy and paintings in each box, and there are also artificial flowers made of velvet in white porcelain bottles in the room, which are quite realistic.

There is a money tree and an evergreen at the door of each private room. There are also hand-made wind chimes on the windowsills of the rooms, some made of bamboo joints, some made of purchased shells and snails.

If there is a breeze, the wind chimes will float in the wind, making pleasant sounds.

Shen Jiarou mainly made changes and additions to small details, and did not spend too much money. The whole room is fresh and elegant, making people feel relaxed as soon as they walk in.

She didn't change the chairs, but added back pillows and cushions. The tablecloth on the table was matched with the colors of the flowers, for example, the chrysanthemums were matched with light green.

As for the outside of the yard, Shen Jiarou had the wall raised by two meters. The original wall was three meters high, and after widening it reached five meters high, mainly for the safety of diners.

There is a small pond in the middle of the yard, with some goldfish and turtles in it. It is also surrounded by a circle of wild chrysanthemums, which doesn't cost much and looks good.

Wild chrysanthemum is an angiosperm of the genus Chrysanthemum in the Asteraceae family. It is a perennial herb with underground runners and sparsely hairy stems and branches. The middle stems and leaves are ovate, oblong ovate or elliptical-ovate, and light green on both sides. The flowers are arranged in sparse corymbose panicles or cymose inflorescences with white-brown edges and yellow ligulate flowers. The flowering period is from June to November.

While the backyard is being arranged, the lobby and upstairs are also being arranged one after another.

Originally there was a dining table in the middle, but Shen Jiarou had four tables removed and the middle was made into a stage for performances.

For the safety of the diners and the waiters, Shen Jiarou sent ten guards to guard the restaurant.

The front of the restaurant is also surrounded by iron fences, one meter high. Rapeseed seeds are scattered on the open space on the left side and have begun to sprout.

Why plant rapeseed flowers? Shen Jiarou thought it could be used for two purposes. Rapeseed flowers can not only be used for viewing, but also for oil extraction in the future.

On the right side of the open space is the Viola yedoensis planted by Shen Jiarou. It is also a herbal medicine. It is cold and slightly bitter, and has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. It is mainly used to treat jaundice, dysentery, mastitis, red and swollen eyes, and pharyngitis; it can be applied externally to treat injuries, carbuncles, and snake bites. Viola yedoensis also has an antibacterial effect and is known as the "detoxifying grass."

It has the basis of "clearing away heat and detoxifying" and "treating carbuncle and poison".

At first, Ruan Qingling and others didn't understand why the princess wanted people to dig wild flowers. After listening to her explanation, everyone marveled at the princess's clever mind.

The restaurant grows many flowers and plants, many of which can be used for other purposes besides being ornamental.

Shopkeeper Zhang and the accountant are very busy and business has been getting better in the past few days.

The Princess will have new dishes every day. During the trial operation period, the first ten customers will receive a free daily new dish.

The restaurant has been decorated for seven days. On the first day, there were potato flowers, on the second day there were cold noodles, on the third day there was jelly, on the fourth day there was cold-mixed watercress, on the fifth day there was cold-mixed vegetable vines, on the sixth day there was fried oyster mushrooms, and on the seventh day there was fried rose flowers.

There were some jokes on the sixth day. The diners thought it was crispy pork, but the waiter explained it was oyster mushrooms. Everyone talked about it with gusto, and on the second day many people specifically requested this dish.

After finishing the work at the restaurant, Shen Jiarou took Xie Lianxiang and others back home to rest, and by the way, she met with her master and his wife to discuss the matter of opening a garment shop.

"Princess, you want to open a clothing store? But we already have a restaurant, and it will be officially opened tomorrow."

Although it is officially opened, the restaurant has never closed. Instead, business is getting better day by day.

Shen Jiarou smiled faintly, "It doesn't matter. There are so many people in the mansion."

Mr. Xie and Su Yuwan looked at each other, and Su Yuwan asked solemnly, "What is the princess's plan?"

She would never talk to them about business in the past, but she suddenly spoke today, so there might be something else going on.

"The student told the senior sister that they would work together."

Mr. and Mrs. Xie were stunned. "You two are coming together? But..."

Shen Jiarou knew what they were worried about. "I will be responsible for providing the money and manpower, and Senior Sister will be responsible for the craftsmanship and management. As for the layout and regulations, we will discuss them together."

Xie Lianxiang looked at her father and mother cautiously.

Mr. and Mrs. Xie looked at their daughter, "Xiang'er, what do you think?"

They are not such understanding parents, so they still have to consider their daughter's opinion.

"My daughter wants to give it a try."

The princess's junior sister is so capable even though she is so young. She also wants to have her own value.

Seeing this, Mr. and Mrs. Xie looked at the princess again.

"Then you can work together."

Shen Jiarou didn't expect it to be so smooth.

"Okay, after tomorrow, I will start making arrangements. I may have to go to the palace the day after tomorrow."

Everyone in the room was stunned. "Why?"

"We need to find someone to cling to, otherwise, with such a low foundation, it's easy for people to be jealous, or even frame us."

Mr. Xie pursed his lips and nodded, "The princess is right. Does the princess have a candidate in mind?"

Xie Lianxiang and her mother looked at her.

"Queen Mother."

Everyone was shocked, thinking that this princess was so bold.

"We have found the emperor for the restaurant, so it would be more appropriate to find the empress dowager for the clothing store. First, the empress dowager is of noble status. Second, she is a woman and knows the wives of noble families, and the wives of noble families are all legitimate daughters. The status of legitimate daughters is very high, and maybe it can indirectly make the legitimate daughters, concubines, and wives of various families scramble to buy our clothes and handkerchiefs."

Su Yuwan couldn't help laughing after hearing this. "You, what's wrong with your brain? You all make sense."

Mr. Xie nodded in agreement.

On the eighth day, the restaurant officially reopened when the Ministry of Works delivered the plaque.

Shen Jiarou was surprised to see the plaque delivered personally by the Minister of Works.

"Mr. Minister of Works, why is it you?"

Her goodness, even a heavyweight came to send a plaque.

"I congratulate the princess on the opening of her restaurant."

After saying this, he asked people to prepare his gifts.

The plaque was unveiled by the Minister of Works and the Right Vice Minister of Works together.

Originally Shen Jiarou wanted to go together, but gave up after being persuaded by Nanny Wang.

What Nanny Wang was thinking was that since they were all adults wearing official uniforms from the Ministry of Works and wanted to perform, why not give them a chance? After all, it would benefit them more than anything else, and those jealous people would not dare to trip them up easily.

Shen Jiarou secretly gave Nanny Wang a thumbs up.

As the sound of firecrackers rang out, diners came into the restaurant one after another to order their meals.

The dishes are all custom-painted, allowing diners to order more intuitively.

New dishes are displayed on the counter every day, allowing diners to see the drinks and alcohol in the store.

The first dish served upon opening was spicy fish, and the restaurant offered a jar of wine, a plate of peanuts, a serving of potato flowers, and a bowl of seaweed egg soup as gifts.

The diners’ orders were different, and the complimentary dishes were different, but the only thing they had was wine.
