Liu Mingzhi put on a sky-blue Confucian robe in the harem. The master and servant, the three cute siblings, and Duan Dingbang and his entourage left the palace one after another and walked out of the city gate.
When the Imperial Guard officers on duty outside the palace gate saw Young Master Liu coming out, they hurriedly nodded and saluted.
"We see your majesty, long live long live long live."
Young Master Liu retracted his gaze from the long street and gently shook the folding fan in his hand.
"No gifts."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"I'm going back first, you can continue to be on duty."
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
Liu Song carefully put the baggage containing the Ming black dragon robe in his hand into the carriage of the carriage, led the carriage and looked at Liu Mingzhi who was standing outside the palace gate.
"Master, the younger one has brought the carriage over. Please get in."
Liu Mingzhi shook his head gently, waved the jade fan in his hand and walked straight towards the long street.
"Now that the dragon robe has been replaced, I will not ride in the carriage. It would be better to take a walk to stretch out my muscles.
It's getting late now, and it's probably past dinner time at home. Let's go directly to Penglai Restaurant to fill our stomachs. "
Liu Song looked at Young Master Liu who had already walked more than ten steps, and immediately pulled the reins of the horse in his hand to follow.
"Hey, Master, I'll do whatever you say."
After half a stick of incense, Master Liu and his servant had already appeared outside Penglai Restaurant.
"Master, please go in first. The young one will go find you after tying the horse's bridle."
"Okay, pay attention to the position of the carriage. Don't block the passers-by and the guests entering the restaurant for dinner."
"Master, don't worry, the young one has already learned that practice makes perfect."
Liu Song led the carriage toward several hitching posts on the right side, looking for a hitching post that was convenient for stopping the carriage. .
Young Master Liu smiled calmly, shook the jade fan in his hand and walked directly into the restaurant.
Seeing Xue Bizhu playing with the abacus behind the counter, Liu Mingzhi walked over with a slight smile on his lips, leaned over the counter and tapped the counter with his fan bone.
"Beauty, you're not done yet! It seems like business is good today."
Xue Bizhu heard the very familiar teasing words ringing in his ears, and immediately stopped moving the abacus, and raised his head with a smile like a flower to look at Mr. Liu who was leaning on the counter.
"Husband, you have left the court."
Young Master Liu casually closed the folding fan, stood up and walked to the counter.
"Yes, the court is over."
"Have you had lunch?"
"Isn't my husband coming to you and Lingyi on an empty stomach to find food? Come, let me see how many accounts you have left, and I will help you settle it."
The couple had been in love for many years, and Xue Bizhu naturally knew how good Mr. Liu was at settling accounts. When she heard that her husband wanted to help her settle accounts, she directly pushed the abacus and account book in front of her husband with a smile on her face.
"I still have about 30% of my accounts unfinished. Husband, please help me do the calculations. My wrists are all tired."
Young Master Liu took the account book handed over by the beauty and flipped through a few pages, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
"Hey, is the restaurant business so good today?"
Xue Bizhu took advantage of the cover of the counter, pinched Liu's waist with both hands and twisted her buttocks several times, and her charming face let out a faint sigh of tiredness.
"Well! The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Not only are there more and more people returning to Beijing to reunite with their relatives, but there are also more and more guests coming from north to south and passing through the capital. The guests in the restaurant are watching with naked eyes every day. Visible increases.
There are more and more guests in the restaurant, and the accounts will naturally increase a lot.
Since four or five days ago, I and my sister Lingyi have been busier day by day, and they will probably be even busier in the next ten days or so. "
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beauty's delicate face, which looked slightly tired, with distress in his eyes.
Subconsciously, he wanted to massage Xue Bizhu's shoulders to relax his muscles, but when he thought that he was in a restaurant with many customers, Liu Mingzhi immediately gave up his thoughts.
"Bizhu, Lingyi, if you two sisters are tired, just close the door and take a good rest for a few days. You won't have to give up your body just to make money."
Xue Bizhu shook her head hurriedly, her beautiful eyes gently scanning the guests in the restaurant who were changing glasses.
"Silly man, we are just opening the door to do business, why should we turn away customers?
I also know that our family is not short of the money earned by my sister, but I and sister Lingyi are idle at home. It is better to open a restaurant to earn some money to buy more things for the children. .
The two concubine sisters are different from Sister Yun, Sister Yaner, Sister Wanyan, and Sister Junyao. They can neither help you with government affairs nor give much help to your husband.
The only way is to earn some money to supplement the family income. "
As Xue Bizhu spoke, she raised her hands and grabbed Young Master Liu's wrist, speaking softly and shaking her body a few times.
"Husband, my sisters really like days like this. Although they sometimes feel a little tired, they are very fulfilling."
"Oh, yes, yes, if you like to find something to do, then go ahead and do it.
But don’t forget what your husband just said. If you feel tired, you must take a good rest.
As a husband, I still say the same thing, you can make money, but you must take care of your health. "
"Yes, yes, I understand.
By the way, husband, if you and Liu Song want to eat something, I will ask sister Lingyi to prepare it for you immediately. "
"Just watch and prepare. My husband is not picky about food."
"Hey, husband, please help me settle the accounts first. I will go to the kitchen in the backyard to inform sister Lingyi."
"Okay, tell Lingyi not to worry, it's okay to wait a little longer for your husband."
"Hey, I understand, I'll go over first."
Following a gust of fragrant wind, Xue Bizhu rushed directly to the backyard of the restaurant.
Young Master Liu retracted his gaze and looked down at the ledger on the counter. After a moment, Young Master Liu quickly and nimbly fiddled with the abacus with his fingertips.
After a short while of tea, Mr. Liu casually picked up a pen and wrote down a line of numbers on the ledger, then closed the ledger in his hand gracefully.
"Husband, I have already told sister Lingyi, and she has already started preparing meals for you.
Ah, husband, you have already settled the accounts, right? "
"What do you think, with just a few accounts in total, my husband can still keep accounts for half a day?"
Xue Bizhu immediately walked behind the counter and opened the account book, then turned to look at the abacus on one side, and then looked at the smiling Young Master Liu next to him with surprise.
"Husband, although I knew you would be fast, I didn't expect you to be so fast. Your speed must be too fast."
"Hmm, my husband is not fast at all. You should know this very well, Bizhu!"
Xue Bizhu was stunned for a moment, then blushed, rolled her eyes and spat secretly.
"Bah, don't talk nonsense, I am not telling you the same thing."
Young Master Liu chuckled, raised his hand and quietly touched the catkins placed by the beautiful lady on the counter, and slid them into the beautiful lady's hand with a smile.
"You'll know this later. Bizhu, I'm tired. Can you accompany me to the second floor to rest for a while?"
Xue Bizhu felt the intense look in her husband's eyes, her face became increasingly red, and even her ears felt faintly hot.
"De Xing, if you don't go, I'll have to guard the counter and pay the customers."
Mr. Liu raised his head and pursed his lips at the cashier in the distance. He held the beautiful woman's delicate wrist with his backhand and led the beautiful woman out of the counter with a slight force.
"There is a counting house, and there is also Liu Song.
When he came in later, when he saw no one at the counter, he went over to help. "
Xue Bizhu pretended to struggle for a moment, secretly looked at the guests in the restaurant who were changing glasses, and allowed her husband to pull her to the boudoir on the second floor, which was usually used for rest.
It's not the time to make tea, there are so many guests, and there are some otherworldly notes in the bustling restaurant.
