The Demon Fox Wife is a Foodie/
Chapter 81 The other side of the mountain
Sister Shuang 'er only ate a lot in front of Madam Zhong. She usually ate vegetarian dishes, so Liu Yueqi didn't order much. Moreover, there were many vegetarian dishes..
Liu Yueqi occasionally looked at the man sitting there. He quietly looked at the street outside the window. He didn't order anything to eat. He just drank a few bottles of wine..
Liu Yueqi had drunk the wine here before. No matter if it was expensive or cheap, she drank a few mouthfuls. She felt that there was a fragrance, but the alcohol concentration should not be very high..
"Just ordering a pot of wine and letting him sit here and enjoy the scenery? This is the Dark Fragrance Restaurant after all. It is also considered a high-end restaurant in Chujing. Just sitting on the second floor probably costs a lot of money according to the time.".
After a few glances, he stopped paying too much attention and turned around to chat with Sister Shuang 'er about the past..
At a certain moment, a loud noise came from upstairs. Immediately after, under the support of the crowd, a few well-dressed young masters slowly walked downstairs, laughing and laughing as they walked..
" The dishes here are really good! This meal cost me five taels of silver!" The man in purple clothes who was walking in front said," Brother Qi, Brother Zhang, let's come again another day! Next time, you guys have to treat us!" Liu Yueqi was immediately attracted and turned to look..
One tael of silver was equivalent to a thousand copper coins. It could buy 100 catties of rice. It was enough for an ordinary family to eat for a long time. According to purchasing power, one tael of silver should have been converted into about 500 yuan in his era. It was quite a lot..
Liu Yueqi swallowed her saliva. She usually didn't spend much money when she was in the residence. Now, she heard that a meal cost five taels. She realized that this rich second generation was quite enjoyable in front of her..
" Brother Wen! My old man cares about me like hell…I'm not as well-off as you are! I still have to prepare gifts for the Crown Prince…Oh, right, we have to keep our promise today. We'll all give him that. You can't secretly prepare other gifts behind my back!" The man in the yellow robe walking in the middle said..
"Of course! The last man in white looked rather decent." Brother Qi, your father is doing this for your own good! Didn't he want to send you to the Chen Kingdom autumn examination at first? Why didn't he send you?"" Tsk…you all know what my standard is, how can my father not know? It's still the autumn examination. Don't embarrass yourself!"" En! Makes sense!" Brother Wen immediately said," I agree with this matter deeply! If you really rush for the examination, it would be embarrassing to go abroad…"""......" all the way to play, three people with a bunch of waiting from the floor.
After the three of them left, Liu Yueqi immediately summoned the waiter to ask about the identities of the three of them. In the end, she found out that the identities of the three of them were really not low..
There were quite a few officials in the court of Chu. Although they were not as systematic as the State of Chen, they were also divided into grades and performed their duties..
Those who went down just now were all the eldest sons of second-rank officials.
Liu Yueqi smacked her lips and teased Liu Yueying Shuang, who was opposite her,"I suspect that they will secretly exchange gifts after they agree on what to give on the surface!".
Liu Yueqi smiled and said,"I already know what gifts other children of the same level want to give. If I give them something better, won't they be more popular with the prince?".
After thinking for a while, Liu Yueqi felt that what she said made sense, so she nodded..
At this moment, the man Liu Yueqi noticed earlier was finally no longer in a daze. He slowly stood up..
However, the man did not go downstairs directly. Instead, he walked towards Liu Yueqi..
When Liu Yueqi realized that the man was already in front of her, she felt that this man was indeed a little strong. He was a head taller than Liu Yueqi. He was wearing a tight soft leather coat. He had no sleeves, showing the strong muscles on his arms..
He had a short knife pinned to his waist, wrapped in several layers of cloth. It seemed that he had not pulled it out for some days..
Liu Yueqi didn't react to this man's sudden approach, but Liu Yueying Shuang's eyes focused. She suddenly stood up and looked at him like an eagle. She stared at the man intently..
Liu Yueqi jumped up and stood up, stunned..
There were quite a few people in the hall on the second floor. They were all eating and drinking. They did not pay much attention to this scene..
" Miss, are you from Kunlun?" The man didn't care about Liu Yue Yingshuang's hostility. He walked up to her and asked,.
His voice was calm, with a slight hint of confusion.
" Yes!" Liu Yue Ying Shuang only answered one word and then stopped talking. She still stared at the man, but she felt that the man didn't mean any harm. Her tense body relaxed a little..
" I have a question that I can't answer after thinking for a long time. Since you are from Kunlun, you must have come down from the mountain. I wonder if you can answer my question?" The man bowed slightly and cupped his fists..
Liu Yueyingshuang was stunned for a moment and nodded..
" May I ask…what is beyond the mountain?" The man asked again. This time, he was even more confused..
Liu Yueqi was confused. This question was out of her mind. How could she answer it? As expected, Liu Yueying Shuang frowned when she heard this question. She thought for a while and didn't know how to answer it..
Liu Yue Ying Shuang thought for a moment and finally answered," Beyond the mountain, there is still a mountain!" Liu Yue Qi started to think. What does this mean? Are they talking about something that ordinary people don't understand? Is this man an expert? After listening to Liu Yue Ying Shuang's answer, the man shook his head. He didn't seem to get the answer he wanted, so he turned to Liu Yue Qi, who was standing beside him, and asked," Young Master, what do you think is beyond the mountain?".
Liu Yueqi was in a daze for a moment. He should have been stunned, but he answered directly," On the other side of the mountain... is the sea!" In fact, Liu Yueqi didn't know what she was talking about. Anyway, she subconsciously answered like this..
Hearing this, the confusion on the man's face intensified. He asked again," What about the other side of the sea?".
This time, not only that man, but Liu Yue Yingshuang also looked confused..
Liu Yueqi suddenly shook her head. After throwing away some things that suddenly appeared in her mind, she was confused. Who am I? What am I doing? The man did not continue asking. He stood there and thought for a while before cupping his fists and saying," Thank you, Young Master! I am Zhao Wei. Thank you for your advice today. I will repay you in the future!" After saying that, he rushed downstairs..
Liu Yueqi was the only one left standing there, confused..
Liu Yueying Shuang looked at Liu Yueqi and didn't say anything. She just sat down and continued eating..
Liu Yueqi didn't know why, so she could only sit down and eat with him..
The meal was quickly finished. Sister Shuang 'er did not continue shopping in the afternoon. Instead, she chose to return to her residence..
On the way back to the mansion, Liu Yue Ying Shuang finally couldn't help but ask the question just now..
"I don't know…I only remember someone telling me that the sea is on the other side of the mountain, so I just said it out loud…".
" That's true. Maybe someone told me before I lost my memory…" In fact, before Liu Yueqi transmigrated, he seemed to have heard of similar concepts. They said that hope was on the other side of the mountain. In fact, after crossing this mountain, the next mountain would really welcome you…From a certain perspective, Sister Shuang 'er was right..
And his explanation was more optimistic. He felt that if he climbed the mountain, he could see more unknown things. That was the meaning of climbing the mountain…If he still had to climb the mountain after climbing the mountain, what was the meaning? However, the other side of the sea was the ground. He really had no impression of it. It seemed that he had just casually said it..
Liuyue Yingshuang didn't ask further. She just thought about it herself..
Not long after, the two of them returned to Liuyue Mansion and saw someone standing at the door of the mansion negotiating with his family..
Liu Yueqi remembered that it seemed to be a servant girl from the Bai Mansion. Why did she come here? When the servant girl saw Liu Yueqi coming from outside, she quickly walked over and said,"Young Master, His Highness has sent an invitation to invite you and Miss to attend tomorrow's birthday banquet.".
Liu Yueqi asked,"Did you tell her that Sister Xiao Bai is with me?".
"No, I only said that Miss had gone out on business, and I don't know when she would return..
"Okay, then go back. Just give me the invitation!" The maid took out two items from her bag and placed them in Liu Yueqi's hands. She bowed and turned to leave..
Those two invitations were actually inlaid with expensive gold thread at the edges. With this alone, few people had the capital to copy them…As expected of the Crown Prince. No matter how good his reputation was usually, at this time, he had to be more extravagant to show off the dignity and style of the royal family..
Liu Yueying Shuang went back to her room. She said that Liu Yueqi would have half a day off in the afternoon and could rest for a while. Liu Yueqi thanked Liu Yueqi and went back to her room happily..
Then I saw a white night with a bitter face..
Liu Yueqi said,"Xiao Qi, are you angry with me?" Bai Yeqing said aggrievedly..
Liu Yueqi was a little confused." What is this? I didn't!".
" Then why didn't you come back and cook for me…You clearly agreed when you left…" Alright, she really did it for the sake of food. As expected of Sister Xiaobai..
With such a bitter look on her face, she thought that she had done something wrong to her..
Bai Yeqing walked forward and took a few glances outside before closing the door. She turned around and grabbed Liu Yueqi's hands. A few furry tails suddenly jumped out and wrapped around Liu Yueqi's hands..
Xiao Qi, I'll give you the tail. Don't be angry, okay…"
