Chapter 35 Gifts

the next day.

Early in the morning, Liu Chan rushed to the restaurant and asked Wei Yan to make a big bowl of braised pork as well as the newly released braised crucian carp and crucian carp soup.

"It must be made before noon! You cook yourself!"

Liu Chan gave the order, the first time he was so serious, he moved a small stool and supervised it in the kitchen.

Wei Yan didn't ask much questions and immediately asked the chef to prepare fresh ingredients and cook them by himself.

There are not many people who can make the Princess Zhao nervous. Thinking of what she said yesterday and the eldest princess returned to Beijing from the border, can she still guess?

The braised pork was quickly cooked in the pot.

The fresh crucian carp was also marinated with various seasonings.

Wei Yan also moved a small stool and sat next to her.

The two of them raised their necks together and looked at the stove.

When the two bosses were staring at me like this, the chefs and the miscellaneous people in the kitchen were very nervous, and some of them even forgot to add salt to some dishes.

Wei Yan decided to break the silence first and said, "The one who came back yesterday?"

Liu Chan hesitated for a moment, Fang nodded, looked around and Fang whispered: "Keep confidential."

Wei Yan nodded to express his understanding.

Since the eldest prince’s main food is naturally kept confidential, otherwise it will be troublesome if someone finds ways to poison or deliberately slander the eldest princess and colludes with Zhao State.

The eldest princess just returned to Beijing yesterday. The people of the whole city took the initiative to greet him and cheered like thunder. It is estimated that this scene had already reached the ears of the emperor.

What would Your Majesty think?

The great achievements shock the master, and the people's hearts will.

This is not the glory that a minister should have.

If the eldest princess is smart enough, she must be low-key at this time and cannot let those evil people catch any handle.

Otherwise, with the current state of Your Majesty, no matter how much credit you are or whether you are close to your blood, you will be regarded as an enemy.

"Sister Chan, do you know Liu Bingyi?"

Wei Yan asked in a low voice again.

"Liu Bingyi?"

Liu Chan was stunned at first, then she was shocked and said, "You mean, the eldest son of the former prince? He is still alive?"

Wei Yan nodded and said, "Of course, and I lived in the same cell with me."

Liu Chan was full of shock. After a moment, Fang confessed: "After meeting you in a restaurant that day, I asked someone to check you. I knew you had been in prison for two years and was implicated because of Prince Wei's affairs. So I dared to let you come to the restaurant. After all, my enemy is also your enemy. However, I didn't know that Prince Wei's eldest son was still alive. In theory, with His Majesty's personality and his anger at the beginning, it was impossible for him to live."

Wei Yan sighed and said, "If Lord Bingji had not tried his best to protect him and prevented the eunuch Guo Rang from bringing people in at the cost of disobeying the holy order, I am afraid that Liu Bingyi and I will not be able to live now."

"Bingji?"

Liu Chan said: "I seem to have heard of this person. He is loyal, honest and upright, and is trusted by His Majesty. Do you know him too?"

Wei Yan smiled and said, "He asked me to record my Journey to the West and was about to help me publish a book."

Liu Chan said in surprise: "It seems that Lord Bingji attaches great importance to you."

Wei Yan said: "Mr. Bingji sent me to the Wei family when he knew that the Wei family was unable to protect themselves and I was also poor. There was no one to rely on in Kyoto, so he planned to help me publish a book so that I could make some money and live a good life. To be honest, he is my biggest benefactor in Kyoto."

Liu Chan nodded and said, "This is indeed a great kindness to save your life and help you live."

Speaking of this, she suddenly laughed and said, "But I'm afraid Lord Bingji doesn't know that your cooking skills are so great. Now you have become the owner of this restaurant and have no worries about food and clothing."

Wei Yan bowed his hand and said seriously: "The princess is also very kind to me."

"oh?"

Liu Chan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, it's better to change it to 55 points?"

"oops!"

Wei Yan suddenly shouted, immediately got up and walked to the stove and said, "It's time to cook crucian carp soup. Thousands of rolled tofu and ten thousand rolled fish, this fish soup must be cooked early to taste."

After saying that, I started to get busy.

Liu Chan looked at it with a smile, and the light flashed in her eyes.

It was noon soon.

Liu Chan took the braised pork, braised crucian carp and crucian carp soup, and quickly left in the carriage.

The guests at noon are not as popular as the night.

The store is quite busy.

After lunch, Wei Yan and Huaer left the restaurant and wandered on the street while walking towards Liu Bingyi's house.

I have to go to Zhaokelou for dinner in the evening, and then I will set off with Liu Bingyi.

At this moment, he decided to buy some jewelry for Huaer and Liu Jieyou.

As for Liu Wuyou, it’s not that he doesn’t want to buy it, but that he buys it now. I guess he won’t want it, and he even feels that he has a bad character and is even more disgusted.

I don't know what will happen tonight, but it will definitely not be a good thing.

Regardless of whether Liu Wuyou will wake up or not, now is not the time to give her a gift.

"Young Master, this bracelet is so beautiful."

Hua'er stopped in front of a stall and looked at a gold bracelet on it with his eyes luminous.

The gold bracelet shines with a dazzling sheen in the sun.

Wei Yan walked over and looked, picked up a light green jade bracelet next to him, and said, "I think this is pretty good. Your gold bracelet is too vulgar and looks like a rich man."

"Tu...a tyrant? Young Master, what is a tyrant?"

Hua'er looked confused, and her eyes were still staring at the gold bracelet, and she pouted and said, "But, I just want gold."

"Volent!"

Wei Yan murmured and picked up the gold bracelet. No matter how you look at it, it is vulgar.

At this time, there was no real gold, it was made of brass. For Wei Yan, who was used to brass, it was not pleasant to see it no matter how you look at it.

But since this little girl likes it, buy it.

It is also worth buying happiness for a thousand gold.

"Boss, you want both of these."

Wei Yan gave the boss the gold bracelet and asked him to wrap it up. Then he picked up Hua'er's hand and put on the jade bracelet in his hand.

Huaer's wrists are slender and white. Wearing this light green jade bracelet is really beautiful.

Hua'er stared blankly and suddenly said, "Boss, don't want that gold bracelet, just want this jade bracelet."

Then he smiled sweetly at Wei Yan and said, "It's still the young master who has the vision. I just realized now that this jade bracelet is beautiful."

Wei Yan said, "Boss, wrap that gold bracelet and I'll give it to someone else."

The smile on Hua'er's face suddenly froze, and he pouted and said, "Young master is biased, that gold bracelet must be more expensive."

The boss handed over the wrapped gold bracelet and smiled and said, "Where is it, little girl, don't blame your young master. In fact, these two bracelets are about the same price."

Hua'er was stunned for a moment and said, "Really?"

The boss smiled and said, "Really, the jade bracelet is ten, and the gold bracelet is ten."

Hua'er laughed again, with a happy face, shook the jade bracelet on her wrist in the sun, and said, "Young Master, look, it's so beautiful."

Wei Yan nodded with a smile, took ten copper coins and ten taels of silver and handed them to the boss.

Although the surface of the gold bracelet is a layer of copper skin, in this era, it is real gold, and ten taels of silver are not expensive.

The boss smiled and took it, giving him a knowing look.

After Wei Yan pulled Hua'er for a while, Hua'er realized, turned his head and looked at the stall and the boss with a smile on his face, and said in a confused look: "Young master, I just saw you give him ten taels of silver."

Wei Yan pulled her forward and said, "Don't be moved, your jade bracelet is indeed ten taels of silver."

Hua'er still turned her head back and stared at the stall in a daze. After a while, she turned around, turned her mouth flat, and said aggrievedly: "Do you think I am a fool?"
