2325 Chapter 2325-third aunt du
The lady boss of Qi ‘an Inn had the surname du and was the third child in her family. Everyone called her third aunt du.
She had been married before, but she had been entrusted with the wrong person. She had a strong personality and was determined not to share a husband with anyone. In addition, her maiden family was a large family in Jiangnan, so she had the confidence to divorce someone. She brought her dowry to Qi ‘an town and bought the only Inn there.
Third aunt du had married into the capital. Although her maternal family was a big one, there were more struggles in the family. She didn’t want to go back and face them. She preferred the peace and quiet in Qi ‘an town, so she settled down here.
Third aunt du was only twenty-eight years old. She was very good at dressing herself up. It was not the kind of gorgeously dressed, but it made people feel very charming at first glance. When she didn’t smile and didn’t make a fuss, she made people feel unattainable. When she smiled and spoke, she made people feel very easy to get close to.
When Gu Xin and Lu Zheng walked down the stairs, third aunt du came over to welcome them.
“Third lady of the du family greets Princess Xinxin and general Lu!” Third aunt du bowed generously.
“Mr. Du, you know me?” Gu Xin exclaimed in surprise before turning to look at Lu Zheng in confusion.
Lu Zheng shook his head. He was also very puzzled. He had also seen third aunt du just now, but third aunt du only glanced at him and was too lazy to even greet him. She was indeed different from the average boss.
“I naturally recognize him. When the princess returned to the capital to receive her title, this commoner was fortunate enough to see the princess’s face. He was immediately shocked. He never thought that he would have the chance to see the princess again in this small shop. It’s my honor!” Third aunt du looked at Gu Xin, her eyes shining. She didn’t hide it at all.
Gu Xin felt a little embarrassed by her stare.
“Mr. Du, you’re too polite. He had long heard that Mr. DU’s Inn was one of the best in the great Zhou Dynasty. Mr. Du was a forthright person and did things cleanly. Today, he had the honor of meeting him. The rumors were indeed true. Nice to meet you, Mr. Du. I’m gu Xin, the third daughter of the Gu family.” Gu Xin said with a smile.
“Third Gu Young lady, since we are fated to meet today, I will give you a few of my best dishes. Just now, I heard that young master say that he wanted good wine. It just so happens that my specialty is the best wine.” Third aunt du was also very straightforward. She directly called third lady Gu from Princess Xinxin.
“Then, thank you, Mr. Du! Why don’t you join us for a drink later, Mr. Du?” Gu Xin invited him warmly.
“I’ll do as you say! However, I’ll still go prepare some dishes to go with the wine first!” Third aunt du agreed without hesitation.
Gu Xin and Lu Zheng came to the table. It was already late at night and there were more guests at the inn. They were not very loud just now so not many people heard how third aunt du addressed Gu Xin and thought that she had met someone familiar.
After sitting down, Lu Zheng said,”this lady boss’s personality is just like the rumors!” Out of all of us, only Xinxin is worthy of her attention.”
that’s right. I’m loved by everyone. I’m very likable. Gu Xin said proudly. Brother Yuanyuan, it’s better if you don’t have this function. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll be angry all day long!”
Lu Zheng smiled and nodded. yes, I’ll be fiercer in the future. I’ll make people afraid when they see me. I won’t let you be angry all the time. I’ll strive to improve my reputation to the point where I can stop children from crying at night!”
Gu Xin laughed out loud.
Just then, fatty Wang, Gu en, and Zheng Qiu came out with two waiters serving the dishes.
