Survival rules for restaurants: cooking and eating melons at the same time

The room was quiet for a moment, and then Madam Ruan started a new round of crying, but this time her voice was much quieter.

That pretty face was now completely red, and looked quite charming.

Madam Ruan bit her lips lightly, as if she had made up her mind. Her eyes widened. "Grandmother... It's not impossible for our Xu family to marry into this wealthy family in Kyoto Prefecture. I am a legitimate daughter after all. Why should I marry a concubine's son... I want to stay in Kyoto Prefecture. It's a good thing for our Xu family, isn't it? I can help the family when the time comes. Haven't we always wanted to find a husband's family that can have a say in the court...!?"

Old Madam Xu was shocked by these remarks, so they did mean that, but saying it so bluntly would inevitably lead to gossip.

"You...you...you evil creature!!! I really don't know how your mother taught you to become such a scoundrel. You said you wanted to get married, but will they marry you? And you are so shameless! You said these things in front of your cousins, you...you...you...how can I say good things about you?!"

Old Madam Xu was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and her chest was heaving violently, as if there was an unknown fire burning in her body, making it impossible for her to calm down.

She really couldn't understand why such a good girl, who was plump, fair and cute when she was born, became like this now?

In front of his cousins ​​whom he met for the first time, he began to talk nonsense about the wealthy families in Kyoto.

Yes, their Xu family has become more and more of a merchant family in recent years, and the number of Jinshi graduates has become fewer and fewer. The family intends to arrange marriages with these royal relatives, but how could anyone be so shameless as Madam Ruan to say it out loud?

She was breathing heavily, and every breath seemed to use up all her strength, but the air never seemed to be enough. No matter how hard she tried, it was difficult to fill her chest that was about to explode.

Madam Wu, who was standing at the side, was horrified. She thought her grandmother was sick again, and hurriedly said, "Someone, bring grandma's medicine up first."

Then he sat upright on the high platform, looking down at Madam Ruan who was kneeling below him, with dignity and anger in his tone, "Ah Ruan, over the years, who among us has bullied you? Why do you have to be so angry with Grandmother? The bastard of the Bai family, although he is only a bastard now, has a promising future. Why do you have to be so aggressive? Even if you marry him, what will happen?"

Madam Ruan stopped crying and sneered at Madam Wu, "It's easy for you to talk without any pain. Grandmother favors you and Sister Xian, so you can do whatever you want. Why don't you get married? It's me. If I don't let you get married, you can naturally think that the bastard is a good person. So what if he's a good person? If he can't give me the life I want, how can he be considered a good person?"

Madam Xu had been helped to the side by the nanny, and after drinking the medicine, she seemed to have recovered a lot. However, she was so angry that she couldn't catch her breath, which almost caused palpitations.

Qi Ning'an was in a dilemma. She didn't want to get involved, but she didn't dare to step forward and ask about the old man's health. After all, this was someone else's family affair.

So he and his brother stood below, motionless.

Who knew that Lady Ruan, for some reason, was so bold that she was determined to change her husband. "There are so many wealthy families in Kyoto, and many of them have not yet married, let alone concubines. Even if they are not interested in women, I am willing to marry them.

The governor of Kyoto is still single. Lord Li of Honghu Temple has been an official for generations, so he is not much worse! There is also the second son of the Gu family. Although he was just a concubine before, he is now a direct descendant. There is also the youngest son of the national teacher. He may be stubborn now, but he will grow up in the future. Everything will be fine when the man settles down. The third son of the Zhang family is also good now, and he can inherit the title in the future. Even if we don’t talk about them…”

Madam Ruan looked at Qi Ningliang, who was standing in front of her, as straight as a pine or cypress. She was meeting her cousin for the first time. He had an upright figure and a graceful demeanor, and could be considered a good match for her.

"Cousin... Cousin... A'ruan begs you, please marry A'ruan... A'ruan doesn't want to be locked up in the backyard for the rest of her life. Even if she's a concubine, A'ruan is willing."

Madam Ruan's expression changed very quickly. She was looking at Madam Wu ferociously just now, but now her face became tearful and rosy. Her tears were like pearls that had broken off the string and kept falling to the ground. Her slightly raised chin looked strong and pure.

You really can.

Qi Ning'an couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking that his brother would not be fooled, but this was too amazing, he was born to be a little white flower.

Old Madam Xu finally recovered from her shock, but she was so angry at her words that she wanted to go down and slap her twice.

She had actually found out everything about every household in Kyoto Prefecture without knowing it. She didn't believe that without the help of Lady Ruan's mother, she would have found out so much. This time, the mother and daughter came to Kyoto Prefecture with ill intentions.

I feel a little scared now. If it weren't for the few words of provocation from Madam Wu today, I don't know how big a farce would have happened in Kyoto Prefecture in the next month or two.

By then, she would never be able to wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River, and the reputations of other girls in the family would also be ruined by her.

Old Madam Xu felt that she had committed a sin, but at the same time, she felt fortunate that she had discovered it early.

Madam Wu looked back at her grandmother, and when she turned around, she smiled instead of getting angry, "Ah Ruan, you should think about it carefully. Are you willing? Are they willing? Are these gentlemen you mentioned willing to marry you?"

Madam Ruan kowtowed several times, her head was slightly broken, but she seemed to feel no pain at all, "Grandma, I beg you. Please help me beg for help, what if?"

Madam Wu really didn't know how this man could be so shameless. It was true that a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes.

Qi Ning'an and Qi Ningliang both felt uncomfortable with her words. The person involved was still standing right there, yet she was begging with tears in her eyes. If this happened in the backyard, who knows how big a hole it would have made.

"Go on, beat her quickly, lock her up in the backyard, don't let her out, don't let her out again in Kyoto this time."

Old Madam Xu could no longer tolerate this and could only send a few servants to try to tie up Madam Ruan.

But Lady Ruan struggled so hard that her voice became sharp and piercing. "Grandmother, if you don't want to help me beg, don't blame me for begging on my own. With a face like mine, there is no husband I can't get!!! My mother said that with a face as beautiful as mine, even the palace would want me!!!"
