The personal maid Xiaoping brought a bowl of lotus seed porridge and delivered it to Zhang Fang.

"Empress, this is from the imperial kitchen. You should drink it while it's hot."

Zhang Fang sighed helplessly, "Hey, now a bowl of lotus seed porridge is rare. I think it wasn't like this even in Chang County."

Xiaoping bent her knees and squatted softly, "Empress, please be careful of which tongue is long to spread.

I heard that yesterday someone thought the money was too low and went to the Queen's place. What do you think? Queen gave her half again."

When Zhang Fang heard this, she giggled instead.

"This must be Concubine Li!"

Xiaoping smiled and said, "The Empress is really smart, I guessed it all at once."

Zhang Fang smiled proudly again, "I have heard that Concubine Li is a local bun, and she is indeed well-known."

"Empress, the young master's Lingnan style has always been good. I'm idle anyway, so why not go and take a look."

Xiaoping’s meaning is that it is better to satisfy her cravings.

Zhang Fang could naturally hear it.

She nodded, "I've wanted to go a long time ago. Your words have aroused my greed."

I remember when I was at home, for a while, my father hired a chef from Nanling to cook the dishes. It was so delicious, it was really fragrant.

Zhang Fang changed into casual clothes, Xiaoping went to find a few trustworthy guards, and the few quietly left the harem and headed straight to the Lingnan Style Restaurant.

Zhang Zijing sat on the second floor, looking through the window, looking at the few diners coming to have a meal, and was still a little anxious.

Since the opening of the 16th day of the first lunar month, the combined days have not earned much as the day before the New Year.

At this time, he had not realized that the impact of Xuanzong's reduction of harem expenses had just begun to appear.

Think about it, even the emperor has reduced his expenses, which minister dares to come here to have a blatant meal?

This Lingnan-style restaurant is one of the most popular places in Chang'an City.

Zhang Fang stood in the distance and looked at the grand restaurant, and felt a little proud.

This is the restaurant of Lao Zhang.

The old Zhang family is now in Chang'an City and has its own foundation.

I hope my younger brother can continue to manage his business well and strive for a long-term foundation.

But as he looked, Zhang Fang's face turned out to be wrong.

Now the sun sets west, it's time to have a meal.

But in front of Lingnan Style Restaurant, it was deserted and there were few diners.

What's going on Zhang Fang's brows tightened.

The business was not as good as expected.

No, if you change the word, the business is quite bad.

With some doubts, Zhang Fang stepped into the restaurant.

Zhang Zijing raised his eyes and saw that his sister was coming. He immediately rushed down in a hurry.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Xiaoping first helped Zhang Fang, found a place to sit down, then stood behind Zhang Jieyu, and gently beat her shoulders.

"Zijing, your restaurant business is a bit miserable."

Zhang Fang sighed slightly.

Full of worry.

Zhang Zijing was also helpless, "I'm talking about it. It was fine before the New Year, but since the New Year, the business has gotten worse day by day."

Zhang Fang was very smart. She suddenly remembered the emperor's money cuts. I think so, even the emperor forced his expenses to cut his expenses, so who would dare to come and have a meal?

She briefly explained the situation.

Then he said earnestly, "Zijing, I think the most urgent thing is to lower the price and save the capital first. Otherwise, if you throw it into your hands, you will lose a lot.

.”

"Yes, but."

Zhang Zijing was a little reluctant to let it go. After all, it hasn't been long since its opening and the capital has not yet come back.

Alas, I was born at the wrong time and I didn’t help me.

He sighed helplessly.

His eyes turned around and looked at Zhang Fang and said, "Sister, why don't you give me a few more things and I'll give it to you."

this.

Zhang Fang hesitated for a moment.

"Well, the emperor went to Chunfang Pavilion to admire a few items before the New Year. He could give you two evenly. But, when we are talking about it, you can't smash them all in this restaurant."

At this time, Zhang Fang was obviously lacking in confidence in the restaurant.

At this moment, the guy suddenly shouted loudly at the door.

"This guest official, please come in."

Guests are here.

The siblings looked at each other, unable to hide their excitement.

"Sister, please go to the private room at the stairs on the second floor to have a rest. I'll ask someone to make a few dishes."

Zhang Zijing laughed.

And when he saw the person clearly, he smiled even happier.

Mrs. Song Jing, Zhou, walked in slowly.

"Zijing, I'm free today."

After all, you are a person who can talk. It is obviously because of bad business, but you are free.

"Zijing has met his godmother, and he has always been good."

Zhang Zijing smiled and went up to meet him.

Zhang Fang, who was walking towards the second floor, stopped suddenly.

Godmother?

When did this kid have a godmother?

Why don't I know?

"Godmother, why didn't my adoptive father come with you today?"

While talking nonsense, Zhang Zijing led the person to the second floor and spoke louder.

Remind Zhang Fang that the person is coming up.

You hide.

Zhou said with a smile, "Your adoptive father has been very busy these days, the emperor," he said just now, but he suddenly came to his senses and had to hide it from Zhang Zijing.

Thinking of this, she smiled awkwardly, "Shopkeeper Huang has a business, and he has found your adopted father, so he has to take it!"

"Yes, business still needs to be done."

Zhang Zijing found a private room to settle down the Zhou family.

Just as I was about to go downstairs, Zhang Fang pulled it into the box.

"Say, when did you recognize a godmother?"

Zhang Zijing stomped his feet, "Sister, what do you know? This is the wife of Prime Minister Song Jing."

Ah, it's her.

After being stunned, Zhang Fang smiled.

It is exactly what is said that if you don’t see each other for three days, you should look at each other with admiration.

This kid actually operated the line from Song Jing.

The future is promising.

Zhang Fang suddenly became very good.

"Give me a few dishes, hurry up, and another pot of old wine."

Xiaoping was shocked by the side, "Empress, the imperial doctor said that you can't drink alcohol."

"It's okay, I'll just drink a little!"

Zhang Fang became excited.
