Chapter 431 Qinghuazhuang
"Infection with a cold means that the cold invades you, so of course you can't eat too much. The goose feet made by the chef are good, you can try them."
Jiang Youzhen saw that Tong Huaian looked normal and thought he was overthinking.
There were several more dishes. As soon as Jiang Youzhen sat down, Tong Huaian started to serve him food. He was very enthusiastic, which made Jiang Youzhen a little uncomfortable.
"Brother Huai'an, I don't know where these ingredients came from. I'll have to ask the shopkeeper later. If you want to eat them in the future, there's a way."
"They are all precious ingredients. Do you think they are cabbages? They are rare. You might as well ask me if you ask him. I will send them to you when I have them. Anyway, you will definitely live in the capital for a long time in the future, so it is close."
It was a good time to enjoy the chrysanthemums and eat crabs. Jiang Youzhen had finished her autumn examination and planned to go for a stroll in the provincial capital in the next two days.
"I recently inquired about a Qinghua Restaurant here. The crabs there are the most delicious. You can also enjoy the chrysanthemums while there. It is said that there are sometimes singing and dancing. Many students come here because of its reputation. I have already booked a room. Anyway, I don't plan to go back in the next two days. Do you want to come with me?"
Jiang Youzhen was dressed neatly and was just about to go for a stroll in the market to see if there were any new and interesting things when he bumped into Tong Huaian who was coming out of the room.
"Okay! It's a good opportunity to go and see it. But do we have crab roe and chrysanthemums at this time?" Jiang Youzhen agreed without thinking, since he had nothing to do anyway.
Tong Huaian's eyes were full of smiles. "Other crabs and chrysanthemums may have to wait for a while, but Qinghua Village is earlier than other places every year. This is what it does for a living."
"Then I'll ask Senior Brother Wen if he wants to go with me!" They came here together, and Jiang Youzhen couldn't possibly leave Wen Ruyu behind.
Tong Huaian's face froze. "I just saw Wen Ruyu go out early in the morning. He said he had something to do. Let's bring him some crab roe later."
Jiang Youzhen was about to nod in agreement, but Wen Ruyu's door suddenly opened.
"Huh? Are you going out?" Wen Ruyu was a little surprised when he saw the two of them standing at the door.
Jiang Youzhen glanced at Tong Huaian, who looked normal. "Since Junior Brother Wen is back, let's go together!"
Wen Ruyu was a little puzzled. What did he mean by "returned"? Did he leave the room today?
Qinghuazhuang is located on the outskirts of the southern city, and it takes about an hour to get there after leaving the city gate.
"Huh? There are actually quite a lot of people here." Jiang Youzhen got off the carriage and saw the manager at the door of the manor welcoming and seeing off people.
"Hey! Have you gentlemen booked the rooms in advance?" The steward's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Youzhen and the others, and he immediately came over to greet them.
Just by looking at the way these young men are dressed you can tell they are rich, the things in the manor are not cheap.
Tong Huaian stepped forward and said, "It was decided yesterday. My last name is Tong."
The manager immediately opened the registration book in his hand and saw Tong Huaian's name at a glance.
"It turns out to be Master Tong. Please come in with the other masters."
Jiang Youzhen followed a maid and walked forward. It must be said that the owner of this manor was very good at doing business.
Generally, when people buy a farm, they will sell the crops from the land, and rarely open the farm to do business. This place is a bit like the farm in the previous life, but with more entertainment activities.
"Gentlemen, please follow me to the No. 1 Chrysanthemum Wing. The crab roe in our farm has been very plump in recent days, and the female crabs have a lot of roe. From the No. 1 Chrysanthemum Wing, you can see the fields of chrysanthemums outside the window, of various kinds, guaranteed to be pleasing to the eye..."
The maid who led the way also served as the introduction officer. Probably because she saw that this was Jiang Youzhen and his friends' first time here, she gave a very detailed introduction.
"Our fish are caught from the pond, they are very fresh!" The maid was lively and her round apple face was very pleasing.
Jiang Youzhen was a little surprised. Usually, they would hire servants to serve the guests, but he didn't expect that there would be a maid here.
"We've arrived at the wing!"
Jiang Youzhen and the others were led in, and then the maid served them tea.
Jiang Youzhen walked to the window and looked down, and found that there was a garden outside, full of various kinds of chrysanthemums.
There are countless shapes, colors and types of flowers, all clustered together, colorful and beautiful.
"There are so many varieties of chrysanthemums here!" Wen Ruyu walked to Jiang Youzhen and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Qinghua Manor only opens for business in autumn. I heard that the owner likes chrysanthemums very much. He does this business not only for money, but also to show the chrysanthemums to everyone."
"Tsk tsk!" Jiang Youzhen shook his head, "Look at his level, he must have no shortage of money."
"There are many beautiful girls here, look!" Tong Huaian suddenly walked over, inserted himself between Jiang Youzhen and Wen Ruyu, and pushed Wen Ruyu aside.
"That's the black chrysanthemum and the jade phoenix on the jade terrace." Tong Huaian pointed to the other side and said, "That's the commander's flag, the green peony, and the ten-foot curtain..."
"Wow! Brother Huai'an knows a lot about chrysanthemums! He knows them all like the back of his hand!" Jiang Youzhen also knows several rare varieties, but she has not studied them.
Wen Ruyu watched the two of them being so close, Tong Huaian patiently introducing the types of chrysanthemums to Jiang Youzhen, one talking excitedly and the other listening with gusto, and couldn't help but feel a little weird.
Did Tong Huaian squeeze in on purpose just now? He always felt that it was the case.
He realized it later and remembered that Tong Huaian had said he had just returned. He couldn't help but feel moved. Could it be that Tong Huaian didn't want him to come with him?
But Tong Huaian had been quite friendly towards him before, and always talked about the Fourth Prince in front of him. He felt that the other party was trying to win him over.
However, Tong Huaian has been very cold to him in recent days, but he doesn't know why. Is it because Jiang Youzhen and he grew up in the same hometown and have different feelings for each other? That's not the case!
"My three lords, the food is ready. May I ask if we can serve it now?"
"Put it on!" Tong Huaian nodded.
"The beggar's chicken here is delicious. You can try it later."
Tong Huaian pulled Jiang Youzhen to the table. Jiang Youzhen suddenly felt that Wen Ruyu was being treated coldly, so he quickly said, "Brother Wen, we are having a big meal today. We have expensive dishes. You have to order whatever you want."
Wen Ruyu smiled slightly, turned around, walked to the other side of Jiang Youzhen and sat down.
There was a sharp light in Tong Huaian's eyes, but he still had a smile on his face.
"There are only three of us today, there's no need to be so crowded, just sit separately."
Tong Huaian said this, but he walked to the other side of Jiang Youzhen and sat down.
Wen Ruyu turned a deaf ear to him, but a hint of understanding flashed across his eyes. As he had guessed, Tong Huaian was afraid of him and wanted him to stay away from Jiang Youzhen.
But he really didn't understand why the other party was like this? He had stayed in the room for the past two days except for taking the exam, and hadn't done anything unusual.
Jiang Youzhen looked at the empty space across the round table, then glanced left and right.
Her forehead was full of question marks. Don’t these two people feel crowded?
The delicacies were served quickly, with three beautiful maids serving them in quick succession.
