Chapter 73 Getting Ready for Business
Pei Qingxuan hesitated for a moment, looked at him with her eyes blinking frequently, and the conclusion was obvious.
Li De didn't explain too much.
They didn't know that Li Shimin searched two times in Taiyuan Prefecture in order to find them, and even sent many people to the suburbs of the city, but neither of them saw them.
In the dense forests of the suburbs, the Li family's guard said: "Second Young Master, I haven't stayed there for a long time and the National Guild is worried."
Li Shimin was unwilling to give up. He knew that Dabai was very fast, and he carried the two people without leaving any traces. He sighed and returned with a horse.
The Duke of Tang was in the mansion and the yard of the houses and yards. The maids and servants were all doing their own jobs in their respective positions, especially the doctors who were serving Li Jiancheng to recover from their injuries were kept.
The taste of boiling the soup is all in the yard.
When Li Shimin returned to the hall, he saw that everyone in the family was there, especially his mother, who seemed tired.
"I'm back, how is the situation with my elder brother?"
"I'm still asleep. Doctor Zhang just saw it and everything is normal."
Mrs. Dou held her forehead and said softly, Li Shimin was very worried when she saw it.
"Mother goes back to rest, and I will guard the elder brother."
Mrs. Dou felt very tired and silent, and agreed. Just then Li Yuan walked out of the back room and happened to hear the conversation between the two.
"Madam, go back to the room to rest first, I will explain to Shimin." Li Yuan said to Madam Dou, who was sitting next to him.
"Okay, don't be too late. I'll be relieved if Shimin guards me." Mrs. Dou said.
Mrs. Dou left with the maid, and Li Yuan asked, "Can anyone find a way?"
Li Shimin already had the answer, and Li Yuan saw it all, and no one knew his son better than his father.
"No." Li Shimin admitted.
"It's fine if there is no, I will ask Yuanji to replace you tonight." Li Yuan left after saying that.
Li Shimin was a little disappointed. His father's personality became strange since he was demoted. The situation in the Li family is now very awkward. How can he miss it when encountering talents?
But why did his father's attitude towards Li De be so plain? Is it because Dabai hurt his elder brother? After thinking about it, he felt too partial.
All the past things began to emerge when they were alone, such as his elder brother in charge of a powerful soldier on his father's hand.
His elder brother usually enjoys all good things. He knows that he has talent but does not pay attention to it. He always treats himself as a playboy. Even his younger brother Li Yuanji has a guard team of 100 people.
And he, the second son in his family, took care of his father's guards when he went out, and at most there were only ten people, but he didn't just want to move.
Thinking about how much he usually paid was not valued in the end, but now he had the opportunity but he exchanged it for his elder brother.
Li Shimin thought about the matter and did not sleep all night. He waited until dawn to see Li Yuanji coming. It was fake to say that he was not angry.
"Second brother, let me leave this here. I just got up early and went to the forest outside the city to get some wild game. I asked someone to take it to the kitchen. After I waited, I asked someone to send it to your house."
Li Shimin didn't say much. He didn't rest all night. He was in a bad state now. He didn't want to be more attentive in small matters. It was not easy to be able to eat the wild game of Li Yuanjid.
His third brother looks quite bright, but in fact he usually has the best relationship with his elder brother. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the elder brother's arms. Just like today, he chose to hunt and nourish his elder brother's body and was unwilling to come here to replace him earlier.
He really didn't know what the eldest brother did to his third brother. He asked himself that he usually takes good care of Li Yuanji in terms of attitude and actual things. People's hearts are full of flesh, and even a stone can still be warmed up.
But the situation is not like that, Li Yuanji only has the eldest brother in his heart.
I am envious, jealous and hateful. If I say that it is not nonsense, I always feel a little complaining about what I have experienced.
"Second Young Master, Lan Cai gave you a wash water." Lan Cai said in front of Li Shimin's door.
"Yeah, you go down." Li Shimin said casually.
Li Shimin returned to the room and did not fall asleep immediately. He couldn't sleep. After a while, he went directly to the government office.
Li De woke up early in the morning and felt refreshed. He didn't know that someone was helping him investigate the files and find his relatives.
When Manager Hua saw Li De coming to the inn hall, he immediately smiled and approached him and said, "Mr. Li, all the ingredients are ready, they are all in the kitchen, and the people in the inn, including me, are allowed to be sent."
Li De was in a good mood. Boss Hua's attitude made him feel very comfortable. He was as if a serf turned over and sang. He didn't say much and went to the kitchen with Hua Chen.
The kitchen is quite large, with two large pots and mattresses. After all, it is necessary to have such conditions for opening an inn. There is a big man in the kitchen, who is not from the Central Plains at first glance.
"Shopkeeper, what do I need to do?" The big man said actively when he saw someone coming in.
"Acan, if you want to listen to Mr. Li, you can do whatever he asks you to do." Hua Chen instructed.
"Okay." A Can said honestly.
Li De heard that the other party's accent was awkward and said to Hua Chen: "Shopkeeper Hua, the chef you invited?"
Hua Chen smiled and explained: "Acan is a chef. He didn't invite him but bought him. At that time, the inn was short of manpower, so he bought him."
"He was from the Western Regions. At that time, he encountered the Turks who plundered and annexed tribes. He became a slave and turned to Taiyuan Prefecture. He happened to meet him. He had a good barbecue."
Hua Chen continued to introduce, as if he was afraid that Li De would not look down on his chef.
Li De didn't care. When he saw a table of vegetables, he asked the shopkeeper Hua to ask someone else to help him. Including the shopkeeper Hua himself, there were four of them.
Li De asked them to wash vegetables, and he was responsible for cutting vegetables himself. Acan next to him helped clean up while studying.
"You're ready, you can go out."
When Li De saw Hua Chen and A Can looking at him with a gaze, he thought he was really smart, but can he show you the recipe before the business was completed? It is impossible to learn it secretly.
"Oh, okay, we're outside, let's give you instructions if you have anything to do." Hua Chen said.
"It's basically not needed. I suggest you promote it when you have time. It depends on yours to attract customers later." Li De said.
Outside Chengnan Inn.
Hua Chen and A Can built a simple shelf at the door of his house, with several low tables on it.
The shopkeeper Zhao of Xiangzhu Shop had just opened the shop door and saw the inn busy people. He was curious and walked over and asked, "Shopkeeper Hua, what are you doing? Could it be that you want to serve porridge?"
When the war was in chaos, it was all good deeds and righteous deeds by the gentry. I don’t know what the shopkeeper Hua was going to do, but his inn could not stand it anymore, so why was it so generous?
