Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 461: There are many rich people in Beijing, OK, sell durian
When he arrived in the capital, he saw many girls on the streets. Their manners were much more graceful and elegant than those in the south. Dacheng was just curious.
It wasn't like the feeling I have now, with that kind of heart-pounding feeling.
Realizing that staring at the other person was impolite, Dacheng lowered his eyes.
"Miss Pei, thank you for your hard work." said Qiao Zhizhi.
Turning around, I saw that Brother Dacheng had become a greenhorn, looking a little embarrassed.
Pei Qingrong waved her hand: "Don't be polite to me, the friends of the eldest and second sons are my friends."
"Let's go." She took Dacheng and Qiao Zhizhi out of the house.
Qiao Jianer also went to Prince Heng's Mansion with the two Pei brothers. In order to load their things, they drove another carriage.
Prince Heng is a legitimate royal relative, and he shares the same mother as the current emperor, both of whom are born to the Empress Dowager. Therefore, his mansion is very large, with countless caves and gardens, and it would take half a day to visit them all. It is said that the peony garden alone would take more than an hour to visit.
King Heng loves to eat. He is white and plump, but his limbs are very slender, like a cone. He greets every visitor warmly with a kind smile, but he doesn't put on airs.
"This is..." King Heng saw a strange little girl.
"This is Miss Qiao, who has just been named Princess Dingxiang by the Emperor. She is a guest at Prince Pei's mansion. We brought her here to enjoy the flowers. We hope Prince Heng will forgive us for disturbing you." Pei Zhujin said.
King Heng looked at Qiao Jian'er and saw that her eyes were filled with intelligence. Despite her young age, she had a steady temperament. He could not help but nod his head. He thought that she was indeed someone who could come up with a formation and help the army win a great victory.
"Miss Qiao is young and promising. You are so honored to come here. Prince Heng's Mansion welcomes you very much. Welcome very much. Please visit us more often in the future."
She became a county lady at the age of thirteen. She has great potential. If she makes further achievements in the future, she may become a county lady or even a princess.
Qiao Jian'er saluted Prince Heng and said, "This is your first time visiting Prince Heng's residence. I have prepared some gifts for you. Your Highness, please accept them."
"Oh, there's also a meeting gift. Just enjoy the flowers. Miss Qiao, there's no need to be so polite."
Qiao Jianer winked at Prince Heng: "I guarantee that these are all delicacies that Your Highness has never tasted."
As soon as he heard that it was food, Prince Heng became interested even though he had never eaten it before.
"Quick, let this king see it."
Pei Shijiu went over and pulled the carriage to the entrance of the flower hall.
The guests first went to the flower hall to sit and have tea and snacks, and then went to the peony garden to appreciate the flowers after everyone arrived.
Now, almost all the guests have arrived.
The carriage curtain was opened, revealing a pile of durians inside. They were large, plump, golden in color, and their shells were covered with thorns.
Without the curtain to block it, a sweet smell emanated from it, penetrating deep into my heart.
"What's that smell? It smells so good." In the flower hall, someone stretched his neck and looked up into the air.
"How can it smell good? It's clearly a foul smell, like a toilet." Some people pinched their noses in disgust.
These are the two reactions people have to durian. Those who like it love it very much and regard it as the ultimate delicacy in the world. Those who don’t like it avoid it as much as possible and can’t stand the smell of it.
Prince Heng also sniffed, then closed his eyes and enjoyed the impact of the smell.
He felt that something in his soul was stirring, as if resonating with something.
"Miss Qiao, please open the shell. I want to taste something fresh."
He is already gearing up.
Qiao Jian'er glanced at the flower hall and said, "Your Highness, this thing is called durian. Some people love to eat it, while others despise it."
"Why not move to another venue first and let the guests who like or can accept this taste come over, so we don't have to worry about spoiling the fun for the other guests."
"Okay, Miss Qiao has thought it through."
"Drive the carriage to Qinyue Garden." Prince Heng gave his instructions to the servants and then said to the guests in the flower hall, "Everyone, if you find this taste acceptable, please come to Qinyue Garden."
Suddenly, a large crowd of people came out, but about one-third of the guests stayed in the flower hall.
In the flower hall, Qiao Jian'er did not let them idle. She asked Prince Heng to wait for a while, and then took two large baskets of things off the carriage, one basket of pecans and the other basket of macadamia nuts.
Pei Zhujin asked the servant to take it and send it to the flower hall.
"Dear guests, please try it." Qiao Jianer said as he demonstrated how to open it.
Use a small piece of iron to pry the macadamia nut open, revealing the round white flesh.
"This is a nut imported from another country. It's much more delicious than peanuts."
Qiao Jianer handed the opened fruit flesh to a little girl of the same age to eat.
After the little lady ate it, her bright black eyes immediately sparkled.
"Mmm, delicious, lightly sweet, with a hint of milk."
The other guests learned how to open the fruit pulp and sighed in amazement when they put it in their mouths.
As for pecans, they are saltier and have a stronger aroma. The shells are processed and broken open. You can break the shells off with your hands and eat the brown flesh.
The guests nodded as they ate, and their eyes looked at Qiao Lianer differently.
Someone asked, "Miss Qiao, where can I buy these things and how much do they cost?"
Qiao Jianer hesitated: "It's a bit expensive——"
These nobles immediately showed their disdain. Money, to them, was the most insignificant thing.
I heard that the Princess of Dingxiang was born into a peasant family, so she was particularly concerned about the higher prices. But in their eyes, they only cared about what was the most delicious and what was the most useful, and they would spend a lot of money for it.
"One catty costs ten taels of silver," said Qiao Lianer.
Converted into modern currency, it is 10,000 yuan per kilogram. These people are rich, so she dares to ask for this price.
However, she still underestimated these nobles.
"Hahahaha." A young man laughed loudly. "I thought one catty would cost several hundred taels of silver, but it's only ten taels of silver. The Princess of Dingxiang is worried that we can't afford it. How much does she look down on us?"
"One catty is ten taels. I want to buy a thousand catties. Miss Qiao, where can I buy it?"
"I have the goods here. If you want to buy them, you can leave your address and I will have someone deliver the goods to you." said Qiao Lianer.
"That's great, I'll take 500 kilograms."
"I'll take 800 kilograms."
"You are all petty, I will give you two thousand pounds."
These nobles rushed to say that they were so happy to have such delicious snacks to entertain themselves.
The nobles who left the flower hall and were about to go guard the durian also tasted the flavor of the nuts and quickly expressed their opinions, fearing that if it was too late, they would lose it.
Prince Heng suddenly felt that his annual peony garden fair had turned into a large-scale trade market.
