The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Qinfang Pavilion.

At noon, the place was still packed with people.

Many passing merchants,江湖人士 (jianghu figures), and peddlers like to come to Qinfang Pavilion for a short rest at this time.

Not only can you hear firsthand information about the martial arts world here, but you can also listen to the songs of courtesans.

However, Jia Daoshi had never heard these tunes before; they must be operas unique to the Great Jing Dynasty.

In recent times, in order to satisfy the tastes of its customers, Qinfang Pavilion has launched several new dim sum dishes, but the results have been less than satisfactory.

The shopkeeper was very worried.

Finally, the shop owner simply turned his attention to the recently popular grilled fish.

Grilled fish is incredibly popular in Yilan County these days!

The shopkeeper had long wanted to cooperate with Jia Daoshi, but Jia Daoshi was inconsistent and he couldn't find anyone to work with!

He was staring at the doorway, utterly bored.

As a man and two women walked in, the man was handsome and dashing, and the women each had their own unique charm. They were truly a perfect couple!

and many more!

Isn't this the young man from the grilled fish stall he's been looking for all along?

Just as Jia Daoshi sat down with the two women, before he could even say a word, the shopkeeper came over and started trying to get close to him!

"Hey! Isn't this our Scholar Jia? What's wrong, not selling grilled fish today?"

From the shopkeeper's very first words, Jia Daoshi knew his purpose and immediately went straight to the point, explaining his intentions to him.

The shopkeeper was taken aback at first, then looked surprised, with a hint of delight: "This... Scholar Jia, do you really want to cooperate with our Qinfang Pavilion long-term?"

"of course."

"If that's the case, I'll have to ask the young master."

As the shopkeeper spoke, he walked excitedly toward the inner courtyard of Qinfang Pavilion.

Soon, this so-called young master appeared before Jia Daoshi.

"Hehe! Brother Zeng, we meet again!"

To Jia Daoshi's surprise, the young master was actually a young woman dressed in a blue dress.

The young woman's voice was like the ringing of wind chimes or the tinkling of a spring, and she was looking at Jia Daoshi with a smile on her face.

"You are……"

Upon first hearing the name "Brother Zeng," Jia Daoshi was somewhat puzzled. But when he looked up, he was certain that he had never seen this girl before.

Jia Daoshi was very clear about this.

Since coming into this world, he has actually met and interacted with very few people.

Especially the beauties, the most stunning beauties!

The girl in front of me, while not a top-tier beauty, possessed a very unique aura!

Its elegance is understated, like a newly blossoming lotus flower, carrying a fresh and natural fragrance.

However, the sharp glint that occasionally flashed in her eyes seemed to be a warning to those around her that she carried thorns!

As for looks, she's just as good as Di Qinglin after he removed his black veil.

If Jia Daoshi had met such an exceptional woman, he would never have forgotten her!

Seeing Jia Daoshi's puzzled expression, the other man revealed a hint of resentment, his delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a few cute wrinkles appeared around his nose. He then said, "Brother A Niu, it's only been a short time since we last met, and you've already forgotten your little brother?"

Familiar voice!

"You are Yi Qi!"

Hearing this voice, Jia Daoshi was somewhat surprised.

He had previously guessed that Yi Qi was a woman, but he never expected her to be such a beautiful girl!

No wonder the other party called him Brother A Niu or Brother Zeng.

He only told Yi Qi about the pseudonym Zeng Aniu.

Looking at the beautiful woman before him, Jia Daoshi felt that it was a little outrageous.

"Ahem! It seems Brother Zeng still cares about me."

Yi Qi smiled faintly, a comfortable smile.
