Based on her understanding of the people around her, it's easy to guess that this guy must have encountered something.

Judging from his furrowed brows and unpleasant expression, he must be dissatisfied because he hadn't treated them to a meal after bringing them back.

Fang Xiaoxiao was convinced that this was absolutely true. After all, she was a shrewd person and could see through this guy's little scheme at a glance.

And the one next to him, Ouyang Tuoba, who is fairer and taller than Murong Changqing, is probably the same person.

It's just a meal. Now that I'm the boss, I certainly won't treat you two badly.

She looked up and saw an inn, so she pointed ahead and said.

"Look, an inn! Let's eat there now before we go home!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenjian looked in the direction his wife pointed and indeed it was "an inn".

"Let's not waste money. We can just go home and eat something simple. My wife, please don't do that."

Fang Xiaoxiao put her hands on her hips and pouted.

"What do you mean by wasting money? Your wife is a big boss now, it's just a meal for her, nothing to worry about!"

"..."

The two people behind him were completely bewildered.

They didn't understand the meaning of the lady's last words.

What do you mean by "sprinkling water"?

Zhou Wenjian wanted to speak, but ultimately held back.

Ouyang Tuoba was naturally wary, feeling that something was amiss.

"Could sprinkling water be some kind of code?"

He thought this to himself, his eyes filled with vigilance.

The three, each with their own thoughts, arrived at an inn.

The innkeeper was still the same person, thin and small, with a small mustache.

Seeing that it was an acquaintance who came in, he quickly walked over.

"Oh, Madam Fang, it's been so long! I heard you opened a new shop next to the brothel, but I haven't had a chance to congratulate you yet. I'm so ashamed!"

"Shopkeeper, we're old acquaintances, so there's no need to be so polite. If you have time, please remember to bring your wife to my shop for a chat and a cup of tea."

Fang Xiaoxiao had become accustomed to this hypocritical approach.

She learned all of this from Wang, the richest man in China.

I learned a lot from Wang, the richest man in China, after spending some time with him.

If it were in the past, she would have just said it's okay.

The shopkeeper chuckled and invited the three into the shop, personally leading them to a window seat before instructing the waiter to serve them.

After the shopkeeper left, Fang Xiao ordered a few dishes.

"Order whatever you want to eat. Don't be shy. I'm rich now. We don't have to eat and drink well like before."

Zhou Wenjian was the son of a high-ranking official, so he had no particular preference when it came to food.

Ouyang Tuoba was the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he had been eating all kinds of delicacies since childhood.

Fang Xiaoxiao's dishes were all ordinary home-style dishes, such as shredded potatoes, boiled cabbage, and smashed cucumber, all of which were bland and simple.

He couldn't eat anymore, so he spoke up.

"Could we have a plate of braised beef, a roast chicken, and a braised crucian carp?"

"!"

This guy really knows how to eat; he ordered all the expensive dishes.

Fang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, wishing she could slap herself twice; she was so talkative.

She immediately laughed.

"Since Tuoba likes it, then order whatever you like and eat to your heart's content. Don't be shy with me."

That's what she said, but her heart was bleeding.

Even if you have money, you can't waste it like this. If Li Renyi were here, he would definitely say it's unnecessary.

Unfortunately, that guy was still in the store.

resignedly.

Without saying a word, Ouyang Tuoba addressed the waiter who was carrying a teapot.

"Waiter, bring us another plate of braised beef, a plate of pork knuckle, a braised crucian carp, and a roast chicken."

"Hmm... another pot of aged Shaoxing wine, please."

Upon hearing this, the waiter realized that this was the first time he had ever seen Madam Fang be so generous.

You should know that last time, Madam Fang stayed at the shop for a full month and a half. Not only did she only give the shopkeeper a month's salary, but she also only provided food for half a month.

The shopkeeper was almost in tears. If it weren't for Young Master Pei Yan, they would never have accepted it.

The key issue is that one of the wives' husbands runs to their kitchen every day to cook noodles, causing the cook to constantly complain.

There was another customer who ate only white rice for one meal, and he would eat seven or eight bowls of it. It was practically killing the shopkeeper.

Thinking of this, the waiter immediately made a few happy "eh eh" sounds.

This time, he wouldn't ask for Fang Niangzi's opinion again. He simply put down the teapot and headed straight for the kitchen.

He was shouting at the top of his lungs as he ran.

"Shopkeeper, Madam Fang's table has ordered several dishes, including braised beef, braised crucian carp, and a special bottle of aged Shaoxing wine. Please remember that!"

"?"

Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with a strange light as she listened to what this guy said.

She unconsciously glanced at Ouyang Tuoba across the table.

It felt like my heart was bleeding.

"This meal will probably cost two taels of silver."

I regret not noticing how much this guy could eat, and he ate all the good stuff.

This is even harder to raise than her own Long Jinyan.

Ouyang Tuoba noticed that the woman opposite him was staring intently at him, and he knew that she must be trying to figure out his identity.

Unexpectedly, ordering food unintentionally revealed his identity.

He kept pondering in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more unfathomable the woman in front of him seemed.

Fang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and forced a smile.

"Tuoba Zhen really knows how to eat. Could he be some kind of prince or nobleman?"

She said this because she remembered watching period dramas in her previous life, where some rich or important people liked to play poor people.

However, what's really boring about those guys is that they dress like beggars, but they have a lot of demands when it comes to food, and they insist on eating the best.

Ouyang Tuoba's heart tightened instantly.

Could it be that she found out his identity?

But after thinking about it, he realized that he hadn't communicated with the two of them along the way, so it was unlikely that his identity would be exposed.

Or perhaps this woman deliberately chose him in the prison cell for some ulterior motive.

The more I think about it, the more likely it seems.

He forced himself to remain calm and replied with a composed expression.

"How could that be? If I were a prince or nobleman, would I be dragged here by the government for a blind date? Have you heard some rumors?"

"What nonsense are you spouting? If it's impossible, it's impossible. Why are you looking at me with such a weird expression?"

Fang Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied.

She paid so much money, why did she ask such a casual question?

This guy is really going too far, he even looked at me with eyes that looked like he wanted to eat me alive.

She angrily turned her head to the side, thinking to herself that it was such a waste of money to spend money and not even get a good look in return.

After a meal.

Fang Xiaoxiao continued to lead the way.

But now she has someone to chat with.

Zhou Wenjian followed beside his wife, telling her strange and wonderful stories with a smile.

"My lady, do you know who the Crown Prince of the Great Yu Dynasty is now?"

"How would I know anything about the Crown Prince's Consort?"
