The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven
Chapter 189 On an auspicious day, Luoer Restaurant finally opens
Li Qingluo had no idea about Pei Nanjia before. Her grandmother hadn't mentioned it, and she hadn't heard any rumors.
But when Mrs. Pei knew that Qingyangzi was imprisoned in the Jinling government prison, she would naturally go and inquire about it.
After Pei Nanjia was poisoned, his father made such a big fuss to seek help from the imperial physician and searched for all the famous doctors in Jinling. How could his grandmother not know about it?
Today, Li Qingluo went to see Pei Nanjia's current situation with his own eyes, and was greatly shocked.
She really wanted to do everything she could to save Nan Jia's life.
When Li Kechuan broke his leg, didn’t my grandmother invite Dr. Luo Shen to come?
Madam Pei shook her head and said, "What a coincidence! Doctor Luo went on a journey to Great Chu a month ago. Although Grandmother has sent a letter to him by express horse, when will he return? And will he be able to save Twelve Lady's life when he returns? Everything is still unknown."
Li Qingluo thought: Could it be that this hope can only be placed on Prince Su?
I wonder if Nanping can convince Prince Su to lend him the famous doctors in his palace.
Li Qingluo was waiting for news from Princess Nanping and Old Madam Pei. Her restaurant was finally opening on that day.
The twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month is an auspicious day.
The Zhenxiu Soup Pot Restaurant finally opened grandly under the watchful and curious gaze of the people of Jinling City.
Early in the morning, Li Qingluo invited a lion and dragon dance team to perform in front of the door.
Amid the sound of firecrackers, she and Old Madam Pei stood on the steps, covering each other's ears and watching something so strange that she had never seen before.
Li Qingluo is still dressed as a man today.
This was also to make it easier for them to go out in the future, so everyone only saw that the young master of the Tangguo Restaurant was actually a young and handsome young man.
And this is the first soup pot restaurant in Jinling City!
Everyone was curious, and when the shopkeeper banged the gong loudly and shouted, "Opening——"
In an instant, dozens of people rushed forward.
The hall was packed with people inside and outside.
Li Qingluo had made arrangements beforehand, but even she herself had not expected that so many people would come to join in the fun and try something new.
During the months of preparation, she also listened to many opinions, humbly learned from her grandmother, and secretly visited many restaurants to see how others did it.
So even though there are a lot of people today and it's a mixed crowd, fortunately everything has been prepared in advance and everything is in good order.
All people in a group must first get a number plate and then be seated in order.
There are not only large tables in the hall, but also small tables, and there are even a few tables facing the street under the porch outside the house.
Looking at the snow scene and eating hot pot in winter, although it is a little cold, it will have a different taste.
Keep walking inside and you will reach the terrace by the Qinhuai River. There are also several outdoor seats overlooking the river, and you can also watch the river cruise.
Except for the first floor, the second floor is full of private rooms.
Each private room is not only spacious, but also has windows for ventilation.
There are green plants in the house, a square table with a stove inside, and two tables in the largest room.
However, not everyone can get this elegant room easily, because the number is limited and in short supply, so you need to pay in advance to book a room, no matter whether you are a noble or not.
In addition, Mrs. Pei also noticed that each room had a chimney, which was built from the stove and rose directly to the window.
There is also one in the lobby on the first floor. Small chimneys are gathered together into a large chimney and rise outside the restaurant.
Although Li Qingluo decorated it with vines and green plants, it was hard not to notice them.
Because it's so ugly!
Madam Pei couldn't help but wonder, "Why do you have to keep these ugly things? Grandma thinks everything is beautiful, but this thing is an eyesore."
Li Qingluo explained with a smile, "Grandma, if it weren't for them, my restaurant wouldn't have to wait until today to open. Although they took time to build, they are the most indispensable item for this restaurant!"
"I asked Princess Nanping. When they were in the northwest, they used charcoal stoves to cook their meals. But the mining industry is more developed there, so burning charcoal is more convenient than burning firewood."
"But this is Jinling. If I want to fill the entire shop with the best smokeless charcoal, it's going to be difficult without smoke. And even if it's charcoal, even if I open all the doors and windows, I'm worried that everyone will be knocked out on the first day."
"So, let's burn the firewood."
"A fellow who adds wood to the fire is more economical than smokeless charcoal."
"Although the stove is a bit ugly, it's very warm in winter. For the people in Jinling City, eating around the stove is also a novelty. It's also the most feasible method at the moment."
However, Li Qingluo’s pot charges are not low, so it is still very profitable.
Madam Pei finally nodded. "If the pot tastes good, then all these things are naturally secondary. When running a restaurant, besides being innovative, the most important thing is to have good food. Good taste is the most important thing!"
Li Qingluo studied on his own in the Red Maple Pavilion for several months.
She thoroughly studied the soup base she had thought of earlier.
Nowadays, I just give the recipe to someone I trust, and that person will come with the recipe to prepare the ingredients every day, and I don’t have to worry about it.
"Mei Shuang!"
Que'er saw Mei Shuang busy working and called her over.
Mei Shuang was wearing a veil on her face. When she heard the shout, she immediately turned around and walked over quickly.
"Mei Shuang has met the old lady, has met the aunt... has met the young master."
Li Qingluo smiled faintly. "From now on, I'm going to make you work hard. I'm letting you be the manager of this shop, so you have to pay the manager's fee. Do you understand?"
Mei Shuang has now become a completely different person after being trained by the people sent by Nanny Deng.
Not only has he become more calm and capable, but he has also gained some skills.
Li Qingluo's recipe was given to her.
Li Qingluo also asked Mei Shuang if she wanted to change her name. Mei Shuang said that a name was just a title and she didn't care what it was called.
So now, she is still called Mei Shuang.
"Please rest assured, sir. Mei Shuang will defend this restaurant with her life."
Mei Shuang's attitude made Mrs. Pei very satisfied.
Seeing how she did things calmly and methodically, Mrs. Pei nodded repeatedly.
After Mei Shuang went down again, Li Qingluo took Madam Pei to the side room that had been prepared long ago and sat down.
Madam Pei said, "I heard from Old Deng and the others earlier that you wanted to train a young maid to be the manager. I didn't believe that this maid from the Li family could be trained to be anything promising."
"But now it seems that after what happened to Mei Xue, she dared to cut her own face to save her life. It can be seen that she is a person who is brave and resolute."
"Luo'er, you have good taste."
"Take good care to cultivate some of your confidants. They will be of great use to you in the future."
Li Qingluo listened carefully: "Yes, Grandma."
As they were talking, Princess Nanping had already been brought over by Nanny Deng.
"Sister Luo'er, we are here."
"Your place is so lively today. I want to be a regular here in the future. Why don't you treat me well today?"
When Princess Nanping came up and saw the bustling atmosphere, she felt like she was back in the northwest and became as excited as a chirping bird.
Li Qingluo stood up and came over. "Whatever you want to eat or drink today, I'll treat you."
Li Qingluo saw that following Nanping, there were actually several girls wearing gorgeous headdresses and veils. She wondered which family these girls were from.
The elegant room was warm because of the burning firewood.
As soon as they came in, the girls took off their veils and cloaks.
Only then did Li Qingluo see clearly that the people who came with them were the girls who had hidden back in the tent that day?
Except for Liu Qingzhu and his servant, are all of them here?
Moreover, there were Cui Jiuniang and Cui Shiyiniang who were the most unexpected to her!
"you……"
Li Qingluo looked at them and suddenly didn't know what to say.
Cui Jiuniang: "But you don't welcome us? Miss Li was brave and resourceful that day and saved us all. We came here unannounced today. Besides wanting to show our support, we also wanted to give you some gifts to express our gratitude for that day."
Another Lin Qinniang followed up, saying, "Yes, yes. You are a handsome young man today, you can't neglect us."
As he spoke, the servants behind him piled up the gifts.
Li Qingluo was stunned.
She never thought that what she did would be remembered one day.
Moreover, Cui Jiuniang was originally full of disdain and hostility towards her, but it seems that after experiencing what happened that day, her attitude is now slightly different.
"Thank you all very much. Please take a seat!"
Li Qingluo then accepted them all without hesitation.
The girls came forward to pay their respects to Madam Pei and introduced their surnames one by one.
Cui Jiuniang and Cui Shiyi Niang did not hide their identities, so Mrs. Pei would naturally look at Cui Jiuniang a few more times.
However, they deliberately did not talk about the marriage between the two families, and everyone just ate the hotpot together peacefully.
Li Qingluo had prepared the base of old duck soup with sour radish for everyone in advance.
Drinking a sip of old duck soup in winter will instantly warm your whole body.
Paired with Jinling City's unique pressed duck and a few snacks, your appetite will be instantly whetted.
Freshly cooked lamb, cooked with various golden fried meatballs and vegetables.
Que'er and a group of maids were right there, constantly serving and cooking the dishes, and then putting them on the plates in front of the masters.
Seeing that these maids were about to push those who were sitting aside, Li Qingluo asked them to leave and ask for a table in the hall to eat by themselves, so that they would not be served here.
Anyway, the fun of eating hotpot is that it tastes better when you cook it yourself.
Que'er knew that what the girl said was true, and she happily called the rest of the maids away.
The rest of Cui Jiuniang and the others looked at each other and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Only Nanping, with his mouth still bulging with food, reached out his chopsticks and hurriedly picked up some food from the pot: "Hurry up, if you don't eat now, this fresh lamb tripe will become too old to chew!"
