Chapter 380 She has
A few of the young men pointed to the carriage and said.
"They are foreigners, and their clothes are either rich or expensive. This kind of car is not owned by ordinary people, and those two horses look like BMW at first glance. They must have a lot of background to be able to pull such a BMW."
"How about we invite them up and have a cup of tea together?"
"No, they are all old, let's forget it, be honest"
"What's the matter, friends from all corners of the world are friends."
So the car viewing tour was blocked. He was looking for trouble, but he didn't expect to invite them. The emperor was happier now.
Gladly agreed, the carriage stopped in front of a teahouse called Qionglou, and Dongzao and Tiexue parked the carriage there automatically without tying the horse to the stake.
Don't worry about who will steal the car, because no one can steal it.
Following the inviter to a private room on the second floor, several young men cupped their hands at them.
"Welcome to Luzhou!"
The emperor glanced at these men, "Are you all locals?"
"Yes, we are the five sons of Luzhou, and we are also the top five in the Luzhou Juren scientific examination."
"Not bad, not bad, seeing that the five are all first-class talents, I believe that the capital will soon have a place for the five."
They introduced each other one by one, and it was their turn to introduce. The emperor called himself Huang Liuye, the queen was Rong's, Qiao Maiqiao's, and Yuan Jiaqi was Yuan Wuye.
After the introduction, they were seated, and a man poured them tea.
"Come, have a taste, this is our famous tribute tea in Luzhou, it is sent to the palace every year"
The emperor picked up the tea, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. How could he say that he didn't like this tribute tea? Naturally, he drank the tea given by his mother-in-law, and couldn't drink other teas.
Just drink it, what kind of tea do you drink on such a hot day, you are really a bunch of sour wits.
The four of them took a sip and put it on the table. The five talented scholars looked at it and wondered, "Is this tea not good? This is the most expensive tea in the teahouse."
The emperor said lightly, "We usually drink one kind of tea, and we are used to it, so it doesn't feel good to drink other teas."
"Oh, brother, what kind of tea, can you let us try it too?"
The emperor glanced at Qiao Mai embarrassedly, "She has it there"
Qiao Mai gave him a blank look, and took out a tea bag from his cuff, "Here, make a pot, let's try it"
Anyway, she is an elder, so she doesn't feel impolite when she speaks like this.
One of the five sons, took the tea bag, and immediately asked the waiter to bring a teapot, and a pot of boiling water came in.
As soon as they opened the tea bag, they took a deep breath. The tea smelled so good.
Pour the tea leaves into the teapot, then pour boiling water into the teapot and wait for a few minutes. No one speaks, but they all stare at the teapot. It seems that they are all good tea drinkers.
The moment the tea was poured out, the whole room was filled with the fragrance of tea.
Qiao Mai smiled, "Let's try it, we drink it often, so we don't think it's any good."
The fifth son was impatient, picked it up and took a sip, and immediately let out a sigh of relief, "Good tea, there is such a good tea in this world"
"It's okay, but it's too hot this day, if this is cold, it should taste better"
“We have no ice here, and the ice from the north becomes water”
"I have it here"
Qiao Mai took out a small wooden box from below, which contained small cubes of ice. She took the teapot and poured the ice into it.
"Come, try the herbal tea, this is the real herbal tea"
The five members were stunned by her methods. Who the **** is this person who can take out ice?
Oh my god, several people unanimously looked at several people again.
"Here, here, did you bring ice?"
"Yes,"
"Your ice?"
"Don't ask too much, try the taste of herbal tea"
It is impossible to drink a pot of cold tea in the south, even if you have money. Unexpectedly, they not only drank good tea, but also tasted the cold taste.
Several men became more curious about their identities, and one of them sent an invitation to the four emperors.
"Two old brothers, old sister-in-law, my family will hold a golden autumn banquet tomorrow, if the old brother and old sister-in-law don't dislike it, can you come and see the excitement?"
As he spoke, he took out an invitation card from his pocket and respectfully placed it in front of the emperor.
The emperor looked at the luxurious invitation card, which said Rongfu, he frowned, and looked at the queen calmly.
Then put away the post. "Okay, we'll go there then"
"After breakfast, you can come early if you have nothing to do,"
"Young Master Rong, what is the relationship between your family and the Rong character in the capital?"
"That is our main family, we are a branch of the Rong family"
"I see"
The queen also looked straight at Mr. Rong, because they were branches, and they had nothing in common.
Several people just sat for a while, seeing that the rain outside was much lighter, they took their leave and left the teahouse.
The fifth young master watched them off upstairs, and they all felt that these people were extremely valuable and worth paying!
In the car, the emperor looked at the queen, "Ruier, this is your Rong family?"
"Your Majesty, the courtiers and concubines rarely even return to their own family, let alone this side branch, if they pay back in peace, that's all. If they use the banner of courtiers and concubines to act recklessly, the emperor can just do it."
"Well, it's good to have your words,"
Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi looked at each other without humming. The rain stopped at noon, and the few people didn't get out of the car. They ordered some snacks and asked the waiter to deliver them to the car. After eating, they returned the bowls and chopsticks. .
"Tomorrow, to attend the banquet, do you have to prepare for the ceremony?"
“No one comes to the door empty handed”
The emperor looked at Qiao Mai, "Mother-in-law, why don't you come and prepare?"
"Why? You copied the house of the prefect of Wu, what kind of good things do you have?"
"Isn't it inconvenient to take it with you on the road, and you have transported it back. Don't you know how to do magic tricks, just change like that, and good things will come out when you change?"
"Hmph, I think they like ice, how about sending a cart full of ice cubes tomorrow?"
Several people couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
"It's okay, after all, in such a hot place, it's rare to see ice cubes, let alone eat ice cubes."
"Then it's settled. A truckload of ice isn't worth a lot of money. It's pretty good. As a gift, it has to be sent to people's hearts."
"Ha ha"
The next day, the weather was fine, the Rong Mansion got busy early in the morning, the gate was wide open, and servants came in and out.
The emperor and his party of four did not arrive so early. After breakfast, they started strolling in Luzhou City.
The sun was always high, so I hired a carriage, which was covered with wooden boxes, but as the carriage was going, the water below kept dripping.
Whoever passes by the carriage feels icy and refreshing.
They got off the car at the gate of Rong Mansion, looked at the magnificent gate, and they glanced at each other tacitly.
The emperor held the invitation card in his hand, and led a few people inside. There was an accounting table on the side of the gate, and the emperor put the card on it. Yuan Jiaqi directly spoke to the bookkeeper.
"A truckload of ice cubes, twenty cartons,"
"What, a truckload of ice? Where? Where?"
"On the carriage outside, can you find someone to unload it?"
Some people who came to the ceremony heard that someone was delivering ice cubes for the first time, and they all ran outside to watch. The butler led the servants to the carriage, and he reached out to open the lid of the box, and the cool air came out instantly.
"Hey, how to arrange this, there is no ice kiln at home, first arrange it in a cool room, I will go to the master"
A truckload of ice cubes made the Rong family mess up.
Some people drink sour water, and their mouths stink.
"It's just a truckload of ice, what's all the fuss about?"
Qiao Mai gave the man a sideways look, "Do you have the ability to get a car?"
Squib, you can’t get this thing with a lot of money, so just now I just talked about it.
When the people in Rong's mansion heard that someone had delivered a truckload of ice cubes, they all ran out to see it happily. Master Rong ignored the person who delivered the ice cubes, and immediately arranged for this piece of ice cubes.
"Send three boxes to the old lady, three boxes to the wife, one box for each lady, master and aunt, and the rest to the back kitchen,"
