Chapter 498 Star Chasing Scene
"Of course, how dare the students deceive the elders?"
Chu Nanzhi explained with a smile.
Nie Huai'an looked at Chang Yanjue with a dull face, "After all, today is the Double Ninth Festival, and the state capital has ushered in so many happy events. It's okay to let the little treasures rest for a day."
Chang Yanjue's eyes bulged angrily.
This old guy is obviously the food cooked by his disciples, so he has to make up such a high-sounding reason.
No matter how lively things happen in the county, the children will not be concerned. Nie Huai'an stared at Nie Huai'an expecting an answer with disdain. After finishing the homework assigned yesterday, let them go."
After finishing speaking, he deliberately looked at Chu Nanzhi, and said rigorously: "You girl has a heart, last time I heard the head of the Lin family show off in the county, I really want to taste what this big maha can do. Same taste."
"The students will definitely satisfy the elders."
Chu Nanzhi replied happily, and then solemnly instructed the little ones: "Go with grandma and bring all the books, we will go to Qinghefang, and the sooner you finish your homework, you can go to Jushengfang to eat cakes earlier .”
The little treasures were so happy that they hurriedly took their grandma to the school to pack up their books.
Seeing the lady coaxing the two mentors into happiness again with delicious food, Lin Jinxiao walked out of the side room unhurriedly, pretending not to know, and sighed: "The weather is good today. I heard that the lady bought something in Qinghefang. There are a lot of chrysanthemums, so the students can accompany the elders to enjoy the chrysanthemums and drink."
"It's really a dead wood that can't be carved."
Chang Yanjue immediately cast a disdainful look, and said displeasedly: "You just get used to these mother and son."
As soon as Lin Jinxiao came out, he was reprimanded by Chang Lao again, his face was full of bitterness.
Although he is crowned king now, the two elders are still like a king and a father in his heart, and he can only bear the reprimand of Chang Lao, and dare not argue.
Fortunately, the two elders were finally made happy.
After arranging the carriage and ordering some plainclothes guards, the whole family headed towards Qinghefang.
It's just that as soon as I arrived at the east gate of Qinghefang, I was shocked by the scene in front of me. The bustling crowd had already surrounded the open space in front of the square.
Seeing Chu Nanzhi's carriage, Housekeeper Zhao immediately rushed up to meet him.
Chu Nanzhi poked her head out from the curtain of the car, stared at Steward Zhao who was approaching, and asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
Housekeeper Zhao cupped his hands towards Lin Jinxiao and Chu Nanzhi who were in the carriage, and replied respectfully: "I have never seen such a rare thing, I heard that our restaurant opened today, and when I came over, I saw it was full of people. They all refused to leave."
Chu Nanzhi looked up at the blue sky, but the sun was high and there was still a lot of time before dinner.
Today is the day of Chongyang, many people should go out of the city for picnics and climb high. At least it should be the busiest time in the evening. Why are they all flocking to the restaurant?
She looked suspiciously at the crowd who were looking left and right, and everyone was whispering to each other without knowing what they were talking about.
Looking at Lin Jinxiao in dismay, she cautiously instructed Steward Zhao, "Please, Steward Zhao, go and share some of the Double Ninth Cake and chrysanthemum wine with the storekeeper Sang Kun, and then let everyone go away."
"The old man has already asked someone to distribute it, but these people are all here for dinner, and they also said that they want to see you, Wangfei."
Butler Zhao replied in a somewhat confused manner.
"see me?"
Chu Nanzhi was stunned for a while, and looked at Lin Jinxiao again, but there was nothing unusual about Xiaobai's face.
It seems that he did not arrange it.
Lin Jinxiao hesitated for a moment, guessed some reasons, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's all because of your name."
"What name do I have?"
Chu Nanzhi was worried that someone came here on purpose to make trouble, so suddenly she had an idea, and told Butler Zhao: "You and the shopkeeper Sang Kun asked everyone to line up and give some reserved places. If you come to eat sincerely, you can sit for a hundred people. You can reserve a seat with Wenqian, and you can book a private room with one or two taels of silver in advance."
After thinking about it, she quickly added: "Reserve the largest elegant room, I will use it tonight."
Steward Zhao frowned and nodded, and hurriedly took people to greet everyone.
Chu Nanzhi hurriedly lowered the curtain of the car with some anxiety, and ordered the groom to continue to Qinghefang.
Lin Jinxiao looked at her embarrassment, and couldn't help joking: "I didn't expect my wife to be afraid. My wife is so smart and capable, it's not uncommon for her to be sought after."
Chu Nanzhi still doesn't know the purpose of these people, if it's true as Lin Jinxiao said, it's really scary.
She has seen star chasing scenes, but she never thought that she would be pursued by others.
Smiling at him embarrassingly, Chu Nanzhi pretended to be indifferent and secretly glanced at the situation outside the car curtain.
When the carriage passed by the crowd, someone suddenly heard shouting: "That carriage is driven by Mrs. Chu."
Immediately after that, crowds swarmed in.
Chu Nanzhi was a little flustered, and asked the groom to whip the horse, and slipped inside.
Lin Jinxiao was also worried that it would be bad for her if someone sneaked into the crowd, so he specially asked the guards to surround the yard to prevent anyone from entering without authorization.
Currently, most of the buildings in the garden in the restaurant have been completed, and some finishing work is still in progress, and they are not open to the public together with the restaurant.
Li Ce's wife, Mrs. Zhou, knew that her sister-in-law and brother would be coming today, so she set up a secluded place in the garden for everyone to rest.
A group of people sat down, listening to the noise outside the restaurant, Chang Yanjue couldn't help sighing: "It's been a while since I've seen such a grand occasion."
"I still remember the last time I saw this scene was when Concubine Yue returned home to visit relatives for the first time after entering the palace."
Nie Huaian was also deeply moved.
"The slave family remembers the first time Concubine Yue Guifei returned to the village, from the west of the city all the way to Tong'an Village was crowded with onlookers."
Liu Yun did not expect her daughter to receive this honor like Concubine Yue Gui.
When mentioning Concubine Yue Gui, the eyes of the two elders were full of contempt.
"Concubine Yue Gui just relied on some flattering skills to win some holy families, how can she be compared with Nan Zhi."
Chang Yanjue stared deeply at Chu Nanzhi, and smiled proudly: "Nan Zhi has really done a lot for the people of the county these days."
I thought it was not easy to get such a female student like Princess Jinshu in this life, but now that half of her body is about to be buried, she can still meet another strange woman.
While listening to the conversation between the two elders and Liu Yun, Chu Nanzhi personally took the refreshments from Roland's mother and daughter and Chu Ting and put them in front of everyone, and replied humbly: "It's just doing some things, sir. Lifting up the students."
Chang Yanjue just smiled warmly, her temper without arrogance or impetuosity is really likable.
Everyone was talking in the pavilion when they saw Sang Kun coming over with a stack of papers, inspected everyone, and whispered to Chu Nanzhi, "Master, the reservation for the restaurant has been scheduled for ten days. The housekeeper was a little unsure, so he asked me to come and ask, how many days in advance can I book at most."
Chu Nanzhi showed a look of astonishment.
Could it be that they all came here to eat?
