Chapter 217 The Lady is also a Butcher 15
"Today everyone in the mansion will be rewarded with one month's salary. In addition, when your second brother comes back, we will go to Chunxiang Tower for dinner. I have asked someone to order a table of dishes. After dinner, we will go boating on the lake. I have also asked someone to prepare it."
"Okay, sister-in-law, I want to eat drunken crab."
Yun Haocheng has really developed a love for martial arts in recent years, and another hobby of his is eating. Ming Huaixi feels that thanks to his love for martial arts, otherwise his body shape would probably be very round now.
"Okay, we have everything. Wait until your second brother comes back."
The school where Yunsheng studied had already known that a first prize had been won, and everyone was congratulating him. When he came back, he was taken directly to Chunxiang Tower by the servant who was guarding nearby.
Ming Huaixi had already gone there with the others. When they arrived, they saw the shop owner arguing with a woman.
"This princess is going to have dinner here, go and arrange a private room."
"My apologies, Princess. Our store is full today and we can't vacate a private room."
The owner of the restaurant didn't know whether he was unlucky or lucky today. Normally, people who came to Chunxianglou to dine would ask for reservations, but in order to prevent the sudden arrival of distinguished guests whom the owner could not afford to offend, the owner would usually leave a private room empty.
Who would have thought that two groups of people would come today. Just now, His Royal Highness Prince Yu came, and now Princess Chun'an has also come. However, there is only one private room, which has been given to His Royal Highness Prince Yu. These are people whom we cannot afford to offend.
Ming Huaixi ignored the dispute here and asked the waiter to take them to the private room.
As a result, he was stopped by Princess Chun'an, "Hey, stop, how can they get in?"
Princess Chun'an is the child of the current emperor's younger brother, King Cheng. She had been living in her fiefdom in Lingzhou and only recently came to the capital.
The Emperor and the Empress Dowager both doted on this granddaughter/niece, and Prince Cheng had also doted on her since she was a child. In addition, she did not know the rules of Chunxiang Tower, so she was a little spoiled. She directly stopped Ming Huaixi and the others and asked the store owner to give an explanation.
The store owner had to explain.
"Your Highness, this guest has already made an appointment, so they can come in directly when they arrive."
Princess Chun'an looked a little unnatural, "Do you need to make an appointment? Why didn't anyone tell me about this? Come here and check on that Xi Yue. Humph, you dare to embarrass me."
Although Princess Chun'an was a little naive, she was of the royal family. How could she not realize that she was being tripped up by someone? It was a maid named Xiyue who told her that the food in Chunxiang Tower was delicious, which aroused her interest.
But she deliberately did not mention that an appointment was needed in advance. She did not believe that Xiyue did not know the rules of Chunxiang Tower. When Princess Chun'an thought of this, her face turned ugly.
That Xiyue was the servant arranged by the palace to serve her when she first arrived in the capital a few months ago. It seemed that someone was trying to make things difficult for her.
"Your Highness, can we go now?"
Ming Huaixi watched as the princess started to daydream after giving orders to her servants. The expression on her face kept changing. If you didn't know, you would have thought this was a new program at Chunxiang Tower. After a while, the princess still didn't remember them.
Ming Huaixi couldn't help but ask. She bet that the princess was a good person and would not punish her.
"Ah? Ah, say something later."
Ming Huaixi didn't know what the princess meant, and the people around her were worried for her, thinking that she had offended the princess.
Ming Huaixi quickly came back to his senses, "Princess, can we go now?"
The princess was suddenly overjoyed, "Yes, yes, of course."
The waiter at the side took Ming Huaixi and the others upstairs with great insight, and heard the princess calling again.
"and many more."
Ming Huaixi and the others stopped and looked at the princess, not knowing what she meant.
Princess Chun'an smiled and said, "Do you mind if I eat with you?"
Yun Qinglian wanted to refute her. Why did their family need a distinguished outsider to have a meal together? It would make them feel so uncomfortable.
Ming Huaixi stopped her from doing this suicidal thing and smiled at Princess Chun'an, "Of course I don't mind being with the Princess."
She wasn't sure what the princess wanted to do, but it was obviously unwise to reject her at this time. She decided to accept it first. However, Yunsheng's celebratory gift would not be accepted. She might as well find time next time.
Princess Chun'an happily followed Ming Huaixi and said, "What does Madam do? How about this, I will treat you to this meal."
Well, don’t refuse a treat from a superior, Ming Huaixi complimented.
"Thank you, my lady. I am just doing some business now."
"Oh? What kind of business are you doing? Do you like doing business? This princess will give you funds, so go ahead and do your business without any worries."
What Princess Chun'an said was somewhat beyond Ming Huaixi's expectations. What did she mean? How did it seem like she was trying to please her? What was going on? Ming Huaixi didn't remember that she knew this princess.
Although I don't know what the princess means, there is no need for her to invest. She has no shortage of money. This is just a hobby of hers. It would be tiring if the business grew bigger. It's just right now.
"Um... Thank you, Your Highness, but my business is just doing well now. If it grows any bigger, I won't be able to manage it. You don't have to pay me."
Princess Chun'an was a little disappointed, "Oh, is that so." But she quickly cheered up, "Then if you have anything you like but can't do in the future, just come to me and I'll get it done for you. By the way, I'm going to move to Prince Cheng's Mansion soon, and I'll hold a housewarming party then. I've sent you a message so remember to come."
"The little lady will definitely be there then."
Ming Huaixi still didn't understand what the princess meant, and soon Yunsheng arrived.
"Sister-in-law, um... who is this...?"
"This is Princess Chun'an."
"I am honored to meet Princess Chun'an." Yunsheng bowed to her.
"Get up."
Princess Chun'an did not make things difficult for him and let him get up directly.
"Waiter, bring up all your signs."
The waiter at the side was a little embarrassed, "Your Highness, we have a total of 28 signature dishes. Are you sure you want to serve all of them?"
"So many? Forget it, what do you want to eat? I just arrived in Beijing, I don't know what's delicious, take a look at what you want to eat."
Princess Chun'an didn't expect that this restaurant was so rich. The most signature dishes she had seen in the restaurants in Lingzhou were no more than sixteen. She was still unfamiliar with the capital city. She had already decided to go out more often in the future. It would be great if she could meet Ming Huaixi more often.
Ming Huaixi ordered a few dishes according to their tastes. Not knowing the princess's taste, he carefully ordered a few dishes that would basically not go wrong.
After the dishes were served, the princess had someone bring a pot of wine, and she drank it with Ming Huaixi and the others very casually.
