Si Ning has not returned to his home to rest for a long time.
She has been very busy these days. Although she doesn't have to do everything herself, she still has to show off.
After finally having a free day and wanting to sleep in, Jiang Linrou came to the door again.
Si Ning knew the purpose of her visit, so he could bear to wait until today.
She asked the maid to bring the person in, and asked Qiu Ju to guard the door, leaving only her and Jiang Linrou.
Seeing this, Jiang Linrou didn't mince words and asked.
"How's it going?"
"I have already mentioned it to Madam Jing'an Hou, but it's hard to say whether it will happen or not."
Jiang Linrou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just mention it. With the relationship between Si Ning and Mrs. Jing'an Hou, this matter can probably be accomplished.
She stood up from the chair and was about to kneel down to Si Ning. Si Ning hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her up.
"Sister-in-law, we are all a family and we don't have to be so polite in everything."
Jiang Linrou looked moved, "Aning, you have done such a big favor to my sister-in-law. I will repay you in the future."
But Si Ning still said the same thing, "The matter has not settled yet. We don't know what Marquis Jing'an will say. Moreover, we can't influence how the Marquis will arrange it. It's all for the sake of the overall situation."
Jiang Linrou understood what Si Ning said, "A Ning, my sister-in-law said the same thing. Thank you for being my sister-in-law. If it doesn't work, my sister-in-law won't complain. It's their fate."
Si Ning nodded, as long as he didn't complain.
Si Ning didn't expect Dafang and the others to be grateful to him, but he didn't want to make too many enemies.
She never knew what Lu Hanxiao thought about the Lu family, so as long as they didn't go too far, she would maintain the superficial harmony for Lu Hanxiao's sake.
After Jiang Linrou left, Si Ning no longer felt sleepy and stood in front of the window looking outside in a daze.
When Qiu Ju came in, she rushed forward to persuade her.
"Madam, the weather is cold, please be careful of catching the wind chill."
"The sky is going to change." Si Ning murmured.
Qiu Ju was puzzled, "It looks like the weather is pretty good. There's nothing wrong with it except it's a little colder. The weather won't change."
Si Ning closed the window, put on the cloak Qiu Ju handed him, and said with a smile.
"It's rare that I have free time today. Let's have some hot pot. I'm sure I'll be busy next time."
"Okay, Minghan was still saying that day that he hadn't had hot pot for a long time. Wouldn't he exchange such delicious food for a fortune?"
She turned around and put away the tea cups on the table, "Didn't Madam just have some free time? Are you going to go out again tomorrow? The errands haven't been finished yet?"
"Yeah, the weather is so nice that it's not easy to do errands." Si Ning replied.
Qiu Ju didn't understand what she was saying. She happened to have finished her work and went out to arrange the ingredients for the hot pot.
Si Ning sat in the yard teasing Xiaobai and Xiaoxiao. The two little guys were usually kept in the backyard and would only be released when no outsiders came.
Now they were excitedly circling around Si Ning. Si Ning fed them meat, and the two little guys were wagging their tails happily. At first glance, they looked like two silly big dogs.
Si Ning had fun with them, and Lu Hanxiao came back with Ming Han.
Qiu Ju sent a message to Ming Han, who was so stubborn in front of Lu Hanxiao for the first time and shouted that he wanted to go home for dinner.
Lu Hanxiao had a rare good temper and didn't say anything, so he came back with him.
Several people gathered around the stove, Ming Han and Qiu Ju were responsible for cooking the meat, while Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao sat chatting.
"How did things go?" Lu Hanxiao asked.
Si Ning nodded, "We will have a conclusion within a few days."
Lu Hanxiao said, "Then I'm going to enter the palace."
Si Ning, "Okay."
The two people's words still had no beginning and no end. Qiu Ju and Ming Han on the side couldn't understand and simply acted like happy fools.
When the water in the pot boiled, the two couldn't wait to open the lid, and a smell filled their nostrils.
"It's ready to eat."
The two of them first gave the meat to Lu Hanxiao and Si Ning, then took a piece and put it in their mouths.
Qiu Ju praised, "Madam, with your skills, you will definitely make money by opening a restaurant. You can make a lot of money by selling hot pot."
Si Ning paused as he put the meat into his mouth and looked straight at Qiu Ju.
Qiu Ju was startled, thinking she had said the wrong thing, and was about to kneel down.
"Qiu Ju, you are truly my God of Wealth."
"Madam, what are you..."
Qiu Ju can be said to have awakened the dreamer with her words. Si Ning had always wanted to open a restaurant before, but she didn't understand and had no experience, so she discussed this with Mrs. Jing'an Hou.
The two hit it off immediately, but something later delayed the matter.
Now that I think about it, why bother opening a restaurant? Opening a hot pot restaurant is not a one-and-done thing.
Firstly, it is convenient, and secondly, since this is the only one, business will definitely be booming.
Si Ning pulled Qiu Ju and kept giggling, muttering words of blessing from the God of Wealth.
Lu Hanxiao watched and stuffed the meat into his mouth.
She gets silly when she's happy. If the God of Wealth were Qiu Ju, she wouldn't have to be a secret guard here.
As soon as he finished eating the hot pot, Si Ning got into the house and began to settle accounts.
How much money does it cost to open a hot pot restaurant? You need to think carefully about where to choose. ,
She also planned to get Madam Jing'an Hou to become a shareholder. When they wanted to open a restaurant, the two of them had already discussed it. There was no reason why the hotpot restaurant didn't have Madam Jing'an Hou.
When Lu Hanxiao came in, he saw her sitting and writing furiously. He knew what she was doing, so he didn't bother her and went to the back to take a shower and change clothes.
When he came out, Si Ning was still writing. He was going to go to bed to rest, but she was still writing...
"Are you going to stay up all night?"
Si Ning replied perfunctorily, "You go to sleep first, I will sleep in a while."
Lu Hanxiao, "It doesn't matter if you stay up all night, but when the time comes, the one who will bless you will not be the God of Wealth, but the Lord of Hell."
Si Ning's writing pen paused, "Lu Hanxiao, you..."
"I will take you to see the store tomorrow. How much money is missing will come from me. I am not so poor that I asked my wife to light a lamp and boil oil just to save a little money."
Si Ning, "..."
Is it really not okay to talk nicely?
The two agreed to go visit the store the next day, but a heavy rain blocked their way.
The rain was a bit heavier than expected. The eldest princess sent someone to call Si Ning to the eldest princess' mansion early in the morning.
The shop was not considered successful, but he accompanied the eldest princess to the outskirts of the city to see the granary.
On the way, the eldest princess repeatedly checked with Si Ning, "It's raining so hard. Are you sure there is no problem with the food storage?"
Si Ning nodded, "Make sure, I have ordered everyone to settle down, there will be no mistakes."
The eldest princess still seemed uneasy, her brows furrowed, probably because she didn't quite believe what Si Ning said.
She urged the coachman to drive the carriage faster, as if something would happen if he slowed down to the granary.
Si Ning was also moved by her progress and became restless while sitting in the carriage.
The carriage finally stopped in front of the granary. The eldest princess got off the carriage first, and Si Ning followed closely behind.
She wanted to tell the eldest princess to slow down, but the eldest princess's voice had already sounded first.
"What are you doing, what's going on?"
