Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 71: Cruise Flowers
Back at the door of Shuangxi Tower, Ningxi wiped away her tears and walked in with her head lowered.
Meng Shuangshuang greeted her when she saw her coming back: "Ningxi is back?"
Ningxi replied listlessly, "Yeah."
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Where did the fifth master take you? Why do you look like you've lost your wallet?"
"It's nothing, I'm a little tired, go back and rest for a while,"
"But the young man surnamed Yang from Che Tianling just brought the chicken over and said he wanted to find you for something. He was still waiting there. Would you like to meet him?"
"Oh, well then, you can call him over." Ning Xi still couldn't keep her spirits up, she now felt that everything she had done before was like a joke.
Yang Jiabao's mood is very high: "Miss Ning, the chicken farm has been brought back, thanks to you!"
"You're welcome, I'm doing it for myself too." Ning Xi said lazily.
“Now the chicken farm has been basically remodeled according to your meaning. Two more rows of chicken coops have been added, and most of the fences have been built. Now the output of the chicken farm is more than double the original one. The cost of investment should be recovered soon. Next, do you have any comments on the management of the chicken farm, Miss Ning?”
"Nothing, you guys did a great job, just do what you want!"
Yang Jiabao smiled a little embarrassedly: "Miss Ning, I have one more thing..."
"What's the matter, talk about it!"
“I have a relative who came to Beijing a while ago and saw Sungai Fried Chicken on the street. He thought it was a good job and could make money. He wanted to ask me to ask, and he wanted to do it too. , okay?"
Ningxi is not in the mood to think about this now: "Go to Meng Shuangshuang and let her arrange it!"
"That's fine, thank you Miss Ning."
Yang Jiabao said goodbye to Ning Xi and went to Meng Shuangshuang again: "Miss Meng, I don't think Miss Ning is very happy today?"
Meng Shuangshuang said: "Yeah, I also feel puzzled. It's fine in the morning. It's just like this when I go out and come back. By the way, what else do you have to do?"
Yang Jiabao repeated what he said about his relatives. Meng Shuangshuang heard that Ning Xi didn't want to worry about it anymore, and was even more worried. In the past, she was very excited when she talked about it. However, it is inconvenient to tell Yang Jiabao more about these words, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can let your relative come over to see me first, and then arrange it if there is no problem."
Fortunately, Ning Xi had already told her the precautions for selecting candidates. At this time, Meng Shuangshuang could take care of this matter and she would be able to get started.
"It's fine." Yang Jiabao said happily, "Then I'll let him come over tomorrow."
"Okay, you can just ask him to find me directly. If there is nothing to do here, you can go back quickly!"
Send away Yang Jiabao, Meng Shuangshuang went to the kitchen to find An Mingyue, and it is difficult for Miss An, who has stayed in Shuangxi Tower for so long and is not tired of it, and she has almost forgotten that she worships Ningxi as a teacher The original intention was to find more opportunities to get close to the Prince of Qi, but instead, he had a hot fight with Wang Dongping, the eldest apprentice of Rong Daquan. Now Wang Dongping is teaching her to carve.
An Mingyue doesn't care about cutting vegetables, but she is very interested in carving flowers. When Meng Shuangshuang went to her, she was carving a carrot into a beautiful peony flower, and it was about to be carved. Meng Shuangshuang He suddenly patted her on the shoulder from behind, "Hey!" The latter shook his hand, and the two carved petals fell off. An Mingyue jumped up in anger, holding the radish flower in her hand at Meng Shuangshuang. A good beating.
Meng Shuangshuang shouted while hiding: "I thought you learned to be polite these days, but it turns out that you are still a tigress!"
An Mingyue glared at her angrily: "Why don't you come to the kitchen to greet the guests in front? You want to steal something to eat again?"
"Hmph, with Ningxi here, do I want to eat something delicious? Do I still need to steal it? Don't put what you want to do on my head! Hey, let me ask you, in this capital city Which embroidery shop makes the best clothes, and which jewelry shop has the latest and most beautiful jewelry?"
"Of course I know!" An Mingyue looked at her proudly, "but can you afford it?"
"I bought it for Ningxi, no matter how expensive it is. Even if I can't afford it, don't you want to express it as an apprentice?"
"What Ningxi wants, don't tell me sooner, let me think about it!"
"It's not that Ningxi said she wanted it, but she will be ready soon. I want to prepare something for her. When the girl grows up, she must dress up beautifully."
"It's a big event, so you have to prepare well. Once you're married, you'll be a big girl, and you can get married. Oops, bad, if Ningxi gets married, what should we do?"
"What should I do? Ren Ningxi doesn't want you to follow her when she gets married."
"But what about Shuangxi Tower, can she still come to Shuangxi Tower? Without Ningxi's Shuangxi Tower, will it still be Shuangxi Tower?" An Mingyue said like a tongue twister.
"Yes, this is a problem." Meng Shuangshuang couldn't help but worry.
An Mingyue suddenly bumped into her shoulder: "Hey, I said you're not too young, why aren't you married yet?"
"Don't just say that others can't say that you are, and you are not younger than me, so why aren't you married yet?"
"Hmph, whether I like to marry or not, what does it matter to you?"
"I don't think you will be able to marry. Who in the capital doesn't know about Miss An's arrogant reputation!"
"If you dare to talk nonsense, I won't tear you apart." An Mingyue turned around and picked up the carrots she used to practice carving on the cutting board, and greeted Meng Shuangshuang one by one.
"Okay, what's going on, everyone only knows how to make trouble, so they all go back to work for me! The girl's family is full of mouths to marry, don't you know how to be ashamed!" Rong Daquan shouted angrily, and the kitchen finally returned to calm .
In the next few days, Ningxi's mood was not too high, and he didn't want to worry about the affairs of Shuangxi Tower. Fortunately, there were two pillars, Rong Daquan and Meng Shuangshuang, and the daily operation of the restaurant was down. Also as usual.
Meng Shuangshuang looked anxious in her eyes. She just wished she didn't know why she was sad.
Two days later, An Mingyue suddenly brought back a very delicately printed pink invitation card from her home and slapped it in front of Meng Shuangshuang: "Look, Ningxi will be happy if my sister brought you something good. ."
Meng Shuangshuang picked it up curiously and looked at it: "The cruise party? What is this?"
An Mingyue said proudly: "The cruise flower party held by the Changning Princess is a grand event held every five years in the capital."
After listening to An Mingyue's explanation, Meng Shuangshuang finally understood what this cruise ship flower meeting meant.
Princess Changning likes flowers and plants, and has people all year round to collect all kinds of exotic flowers, rare plants and precious flowers and trees from all over the country, and she also has many highly skilled gardeners in her house, who can control the flowers that bloom in different seasons. open at the same time.
Princess Changning loves flowers and even invites people to enjoy them, but she has to find another way. Instead of inviting people to enjoy flowers in her own garden, she invites people to build ten luxurious and sturdy ships. Every five years At one point, I invited someone to enjoy the flowers on the boat.
At this time, the eldest princess will let people put all those exotic flowers on the boat, decorate the boat magnificently, and also arrange wonderful songs and dances and exquisite food on the boat. Three days and three nights, as the so-called drunken life and dream of death, appreciate the prosperity of the world. Everyone who has participated in the cruise flower party will come back and talk about it for a long time.
It's a pity that the princess' invitation is not so easy to get. The princess is straightforward and pleasing to the eye. Even if it's just a commoner, she will send an invitation card. , she won't look down on you either.
When An Mingyue was young at the last flower meeting, she was not qualified to participate. This time, she had her grandfather pay attention to it early, and finally got her an invitation card: "This time you and Ning Xi, just pretend to be my personal maid and go with me on the boat!" An Mingyue said to Meng Shuangshuang.
"Why, why do we want to be your maid?" Meng Shuangshuang said unconvinced.
"I only have this!" An Mingyue proudly held the invitation card and swayed in front of her, "If you have the ability, you can also get an invitation card, so that you don't need to be my maid! I I heard that there are blond foreigners juggling on the boat, and there are also big white tigers, which is scary.”
"That's fine, but you can't really instruct us to serve you!" In order to open his eyes, Meng Shuangshuang decided to compromise.
The two went to find Ningxi together, and tried their best to recommend this cruise party to her: "Why don't you go, this opportunity only comes once every five years, so I promise you won't regret it!"
"Yes, it's good to go and have some fun. You've been feeling gloomy all the time. We don't even dare to speak loudly, for fear of annoying you. Don't you think that our Sungai Towers have become Is it more boring?"
"Okay, then let's go!" Ning Xi also felt that it was okay to be so depressed. Since the facts can't be changed, then let it go. If you can have a happy birthday, let's live a good day. , No matter what happens, it's worse, but it was almost starved to death when there was no food to eat, and it was almost sold to the deep mountains to be a child bride for others, right?
"Great!" An Mingyue cheered, "Then let's go to the street to buy new clothes and jewelry!"
"Huh?" The other two women looked at her.
"Ah what, the woman who can go to the cruise ship flower party, that is not the one who dresses up hard, we must act fast, otherwise the good things will be robbed!"
"Okay, let's go!" Ning Xi opened the box, found out the private money he had saved for so long, counted it all, and put it all into his arms, "Let's go buy a happy one this time!" /
Seeing the vivid expression on Ningxi's face for the first time in so many days, Meng Shuangshuang was also happy: "Yes, we are rich now, we can buy whatever we like!"
"Let's go!" The three girls joined hands and walked out the door jokingly.
Just stepping out of the gate of Shuangxi Tower, I saw a familiar carriage parked at the door. Ningxi's heart sank, the carriage door opened, and Jun Qianyu's elegant figure appeared in front of them: "Ningxi, I have something to do. I want to tell you."
Meng Shuangshuang and An Mingyue were extremely disappointed, Ning Xi whispered to them: "It doesn't matter, you go first, if you see something good, just buy it back for me, I trust your vision."
"Okay then!" On the one hand, the two felt that it was unkind to leave Ning Xi like this, but on the other hand, they were afraid that, as An Mingyue said, the good things would be bought by others, and they thought about it. , I still decided to go first, and next time I wait for Ningxi to be free, I will go with her again.
Ning Xi followed Jun Qianyu into the inner room: "I don't know what the fifth master is looking for the people's daughter?"
"Did you know about Princess Changning's cruise party?"
"I know, I just heard it from An Mingyue."
"Just know, I want you to participate as a chef."
