Chapter 33 Boiled Edamame

The King of Chu's mother is the queen, and his aunt is Cheng Guogong, who is on par with Duke Wen. It has been more than half a year since King Qi returned to the capital last year, and he has not given any face to King Qi in front of everyone, not to mention his brothers and sisters.

There doesn't seem to be anything going on.

The waiter took another glass of wine from the beauty's head and respectfully brought it to King Chu with both hands. Everyone was staring at the glass of wine. Will King Chu take it? What will happen after taking it?

If a large three-story restaurant is silent, the little people are afraid to make themselves felt, and the big people have their own thoughts.

King Qi put his hand on Ji Rongjin's shoulder, put down the tea cup with the other hand, and smiled lightly: "It's getting late, so Wuhua goes first." As he spoke, he stood up, and took his 'outer room' with him when he stood up.

King Chu's eyes were dark, and he reached out to take the wine glass held by the waiter. He took a sip, raised his chin slightly, and watched the seventh brother holding a heavy soldier in his arms and leaving the outer room.

"Lao Qi——" he started.

Yan Tao stopped and turned around with a smile on his face: "Second brother..."

"Let me trade with you for a beauty."

I'm coming!

What Ji Rongjin was worried about finally came to light. He actually treated her as an object in exchange. It was really an evil feudal privilege. Wait, she was not a slave in a brothel and was bought and sold. Why should he exchange her for someone else?

He raised his head and said, "Your Highness, I am Ping..."

Yan Tao motioned her not to speak.

His eyes were indifferent, as if there was a kind of silent power. Ji Rongjin actually closed his mouth without hesitation at all, entrusting his personal safety to a man who was a little more familiar than a stranger.

Yan Tao smiled softly, "Second brother, she is a good citizen."

"That's right!" King Chu smiled with an unknown meaning, "It looks a bit familiar."

Looks familiar? Another one who recognizes me? And he’s a prince? Ji Rongjin was horrified inside, but didn’t show it on his face. He leaned slightly on Qi Wang Yantao’s chest. It was obvious that the two of them were not very close, but from the side angle, they seemed to be close to each other.

pasted together.

King Chu stood up, holding the wine glass in one hand, holding the other behind his back, and walked to Yan Tao step by step. His eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and he turned around the two of them, "Old man, you say, right?"

"Ah..." The eighth son of the emperor, King Wei, laughed dryly and thought for a moment, "I'm sorry that I'm young, but I really don't remember that the little lady in the capital looks like her."

King Wei Yanchen was on the side of King Chu, but more than half a month ago, since he went to the morning tea house for breakfast, he often went to see Ji Rongjin. He was more familiar with Ji Rongjin than Yan Tao.

King Chu smiled and asked again: "Second brother, what do you think?"

The usually taciturn second prince, King Zhao, raised his eyes when he heard the sound. The fire finally affected him, with no expression on his face. "I rarely attend banquets in the capital, and I have never had the opportunity to see the young lady in the backyard."

He seemed to be gentle, but he was so strong that he blocked the words calmly.

"Haha..." King Chu smiled sarcastically, stretched out his hand and poured the wine, so fast that no one could react.

When Ji Rongjin threw the wine, he turned his face to Yan Tao's chest to avoid the spilled wine. When she turned her face to bury her heart, Yan Tao's reaction was also very sharp. He turned sideways and threw the drink at the young lady.

He blocked them all, and spilled all the wine on his shoulder, dripping down his clothes.

"Third brother, what do you mean?" Yan Tao looked dissatisfied. He released his hand from Ji Rongjin's shoulders and faced the King of Chu directly.

"It's a small thing for a small outsider to not be polite when she sees this king. It's too small to throw a glass of wine at her." The King of Chu took the wine from the waiter's hand for the third time and drank it to Ji Rongjin again.

This time he was blocked by King Qi again.

Ji Rongjin covered her mouth and exclaimed, this is the rhythm of a fight! When this thought came to her mind, Yan Tao had already taken action.

"Seventh brother..."

"Third brother..."

The prince fights in a big restaurant. This scene... well, how to describe it?

Ji Rongjin is not a real girl of sixteen or seventeen, nor was she born in ancient times with limited information. She has not systematically watched modern movies, TV shows, novels, and history, and has passively accepted many of them.

Is the fight really over a little outlaw who doesn't understand etiquette?

She, Ji Rongjin, was considered Prince Qi's outsider, and was just a small chess piece used as a shield. However, she did not speculate on why the two had turned against each other in public. This was not something she, an "outside", needed to know.

Taking advantage of the chaos and no one paying attention, Ji Rongjin slipped away. She didn't get home until midnight. After arriving home, she didn't panic, washed up, lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

Aunt Guo waited for the young lady to fall asleep, turned off the lights and turned off the flames, and she was about to go to bed, but someone came to see her, so she quietly went to the back door.

"Why did you come to me so late?"

The visitor asked in a low voice: "Did the little master come back and ask you anything?"

"No!" Aunt Guo was surprised, "What's going on?"

The visitor looked solemn, "A lot of things happened in the restaurant today, did Rong Niang really not mention a word?"

Aunt Guo nodded: "I didn't mention a word."

"I didn't ask you anything?"

Aunt Guo shook her head, "I didn't even ask a word."

Although the visitor was puzzled, he also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he explained some things and disappeared into the night.

On the second day, King Yantao of Qi did not come to Ji Rongjin, nor did he send anyone to explain or remind him. It was as if nothing had happened.

This is good. For her, a commoner, this is the best.

Ji Rongjin didn't bother Ji Rongjin about the restaurant matter, but she was still entangled in trouble. Qiao Qingyu got the first-floor bonus of the morning tea restaurant - one thousand taels. After seeing how to make money, he pestered her all day long to earn more than ten thousand a month.

Business.

Everyone wants to make big money, but not everyone is worthy of the big money.

In fact, more than 90% of people cannot make money beyond their awareness. A few percent of people may be lucky enough to make a lot of money, but their ability to spend money cannot match the money they make, and they cannot afford it.

Constant self-aggrandizement and external troubles will make life a mess and even make you completely timid.

Qiao Qingyu is this type of person. He doesn't know how to spend money and doesn't know how to keep wealth. No matter how much money he makes, it's all in vain. Ji Rongjin doesn't want to do useless work and won't help no matter how much he asks.

"You are suitable for selling bean sprouts, really, I won't lie to you."

"Thousands of kilograms of bean sprouts are only a few taels a day. How can I feed more than 200 people? You tell me, how can I feed..." Qiao Qingyu almost knelt down for her and burst into tears.

The end of July and the beginning of August is when edamame is on the market, and the most original and simple way to eat it is to boil it in water.

Ji Rongjin took a bowl of boiled edamame as change, opened half of the door, and blocked the other half to prevent Qiao Qingyu from coming in. She didn't feel anything about his crying.

He replied nonchalantly: "Then resign, so you don't need to support more than 200 people?"

"My dear mother..." Qiao Qingyu said bitterly, "Do you know how much effort it took me to climb to the position of captain?"

Looking at his figure like an iron tower, Ji Rongjin shook his head, "I think you are only suitable to be a martial arts instructor. The rest... forget it!" After that, he closed the door and saw off the guests.

"Ms. Ji...Ms. Ji..." Qiao Qingyu finally let her open the door, how could he let her slip away so easily, "I beg you, really, please give me a profitable business."
