Traveling to ancient times to sweep the catering industry
Chapter 16: Pure and harmless?
"General?"
"The general is coming?"
Not only Cheng Wenwen looked over in shock when she heard the name, but He and Pei'er also looked over.
Then, the three of them couldn't help but see the tall man walking in from the door.
The man came against the light, his handsome face gradually revealed, his appearance was extremely good-looking.
It's not the kind of gentle appearance like jade, but the kind of appearance that is extremely aggressive and masculine.
This appearance is comparable to that of Cousin Wang, who is as gentle as jade.
Who doesn’t like looking at handsome guys?
Cheng Wenwen was infatuated with him and was reluctant to look away.
"General, please come in!"
The shopkeeper's voice immediately broke Cheng Wenwen's infatuated thoughts.
This, this, this...is this the general?
But when she saw Song Jiang behind the man, Cheng Wenwen was sure of it.
This is the ugly general I think he is.
But why has he changed so much?
Cheng Wenwen lowered her head in panic.
I hope he doesn't see me.
But this person seemed to be coming for him.
……
"General, please forgive me for not recognizing Taishan Taishan. Please follow me to the best room upstairs."
Manager Xu from Fuyuanlou hurried over to greet them.
There are many aristocratic officials in Shanzhou City, but if you ask who is the boss, it is naturally General Qi Shuo of Dingyuan, who commands 20,000 border defense troops.
Their Fuyuan Building is also the general's property.
But Shopkeeper Xu always said that he had dealt with Song Jiang very few times and had met the general only a few times.
But Shopkeeper Xu couldn't help but feel strange when he looked at the tall and handsome man in front of him.
Is this really the general? Why did he remember that the general was a tough guy with a full beard?
Shopkeeper Xu couldn't help but take a few more glances. It seemed that the body shape was very similar, but the face was not at all similar?
Is the general so handsome?
Shopkeeper Xu was glancing at him secretly, and suddenly Qi Shuo looked up at him. The sharp gaze scared Shopkeeper Xu so much that he quickly lowered his eyes and dared not look any more.
As soon as Qi Shuo walked into Fuyuan Building, he saw the girl sitting by the window in the hall.
The girl picked up her chopsticks with a look of enjoyment on her face, and after eating the delicious food, her face showed a look of satisfaction.
But then, when the girl saw him, she was suddenly startled, and then she lowered her head like a mouse seeing a cat, feeling very guilty.
Qi Shuo couldn't help but frown. He had already been punished today, how could he still be scary?
Qi Shuo walked over, knocked on the table in front of Cheng Wenwen, and said, "Come up with me."
After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.
Cheng Wenwen was still in a daze, and He stood up and grabbed her: "Miss, hurry up and leave, the general is calling you!"
The waiter also came to entertain warmly: "Miss, please come in. I didn't expect you to be the general's friend. I'm sorry for my poor hospitality."
Cheng Wenwen was half pushed and half urged to follow Qi Shuo's pace and went upstairs into a good private room.
This private room can be called luxurious, spacious and elegant. When the window is opened, you can see the entire Shanzhou city from a distance.
Cheng Wenwen looked at the man who had already sat down beside the bed and hesitated. She didn't know why the general suddenly called her here.
Did he just pass by and see me? Or did he come to see me on purpose?
Could it be that he knew about my stall and felt that he had embarrassed him?
While Cheng Wenwen was still daydreaming, Qi Shuo looked at her and said, "Sit down, don't be restrained."
The table was very big, so Cheng Wenwen carefully sat as far away from him as possible.
……
When the general arrived, everyone in Fuyuan Building became alert, fearing that they would offend the general, as he was the owner of Fuyuan Building.
Shopkeeper Xu Xu was watching from the back kitchen: "Hurry up, don't keep the general waiting for too long."
"Boss, what is the relationship between the general and that lady?" the waiter couldn't help but ask.
General Dingyuan was the boss of Shanzhou City. Many people wanted to curry his favor with him and even sent him many beauties. However, the general was a man who was not interested in beautiful women, so he stopped many people from having evil intentions.
The waiter was a little curious. The lady looked like she was still waiting to be married, but she caught the general's eye? I don't know which family she was from, but she will be blessed in the future.
Shopkeeper Xu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Stop asking about the general's affairs and do your job well!"
With the supervision of Shopkeeper Xu, the dishes were served quickly. The table was full of delicious dishes, which made people very appetizing.
"General, please enjoy your meal!"
When Shopkeeper Xu entered the private room, he couldn't help but cast a curious glance at the general and the young lady. Seeing the young lady sitting far away awkwardly, it didn't seem like they were willing to be together, but rather that she was forced by the general.
Hey! This young lady is still unwilling? The general has both good looks and power. If his daughter is favored by the general, he will immediately light firecrackers and send her to the general's mansion without the general saying anything.
Seeing that Shopkeeper Xu had not left yet, Qi Shuo glanced at Cheng Wenwen opposite him. She was timid to begin with, and would be even more afraid if there were too many people around. So Qi Shuo waved his hand, motioning them to go down.
But Shopkeeper Xu was thinking about something and accidentally misunderstood what he meant. He stepped forward and asked, "What do you want, General?"
Qi Shuo frowned: "Everyone go down, I don't need anyone to serve me."
"Yes, yes, General, please don't be upset. We will go down immediately."
Manager Xu hurriedly left with his people, leaving only Cheng Wenwen, Qi Shuo, and their close associates in the room.
Cheng Wenwen sat upright and noticed that the man sitting at the table seemed to be staring at her. Cheng Wenwen quickly lowered her head and did not dare to pick up her chopsticks.
Cheng Wenwen's frightened state looked completely different in Qi Shuo's eyes.
The girl lowered her head, her eyes were gentle and virtuous, her hands hung in front of her knees, and she seemed a little nervous. She was not as lively as she seemed when he first saw her, but she was also more dignified.
"Eat, don't be shy in front of me."
Cheng Wenwen heard the man's gentle voice and raised her eyelids to look at him.
She wasn't actually full, but since the man didn't move, she didn't want to move either.
Moreover, she has to maintain her timid and stuttering personality!
Although this general dressed up and became much more handsome and pleasing to the eye, he was still more than ten years older than himself, had concubines and illegitimate children, so it was not a good fate for him.
Although Cheng Wenwen is a fangirl, she still has principles.
No matter how handsome a man is, it’s disgusting to think about her sharing a husband with another woman.
So Cheng Wenwen still couldn't make the general fall in love with her.
Seeing that the girl still hadn't picked up her chopsticks, perhaps because she was shy, Qi Shuo took the lead and picked up a piece of cake for her.
"Just now I saw that you seemed to like it very much, try it."
Huazhegao is the signature dish of Fuyuanlou. The waiter said that the filling is made with peach blossoms and wrapped in puff pastry. It tastes a bit like flower cake, but it is much better than flower cake. Cheng Wenwen really likes it.
"Thank you so much...thank you, General."
Cheng Wenwen said something with difficulty, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up the pastry with trembling hands, lowered her head and ate the pastry slowly, trying her best to make herself look less petty.
"Is your injury feeling better?" Qi Shuo looked at her left hand with concern.
"It's... it's okay... it just still hurts sometimes."
"I think Wu Niang has told you about our wedding, right? If you feel well, we can get married, but don't force it."
Qi Shuo thought that Cheng Wenwen couldn't wait to get married.
But Cheng Wenwen doesn't want to.
Cheng Wenwen reluctantly said, "I'll listen to the general."
Cheng was a woman from an aristocratic family, not a concubine sent by someone else, who approached him with other purposes. Her temperament was gentle and charming, pure and harmless, which reduced Qi Shuo's vigilance a lot.
Qi Shuo thought about it and asked him, "Why don't we set the wedding date in June?"
June? Isn't that only two months away?
No, no, Cheng Wenwen doesn’t want to get married so early!
She hasn’t earned enough money in two months, how can she run away?
She deliberately shook her hand, and the chopsticks fell to the ground. In her nervousness, she even overturned the food on the table.
"Ah... General... General, I didn't mean it." Cheng Wenwen was in a panic and looked at the man opposite her cautiously.
Qi Shuo frowned slightly, looked at her frightened expression, and asked, "Are you that afraid of me?"
Cheng Wenwen waved her hands repeatedly: "No...I...I just get...nervous when I'm with men."
Qi Shuo could understand this explanation. Girls from aristocratic families were taught to follow the rules since childhood and not meet men outside their family. This was probably the first time she met a man outside her family, so this was normal.
When Qi Shuo thought this way, his psychological defense against Cheng Wenwen lowered.
Just ask yourself, who would think that a woman who has strictly abided by the ethics and morals since childhood, has never met a man outside of her, and is simple and harmless has ulterior motives?
Qi Shuo felt that although Cheng Wenwen was timid and a little naive, she would definitely be more relaxed once the two of them became familiar with each other.
It's not bad to marry such a woman. At least I can live a normal life and don't have to worry about being suddenly murdered by a woman while sleeping in the middle of the night.
Cheng Wenwen is still young and naive, so it doesn't matter. If I treat her better in the future, she will naturally not be so afraid of me.
