Chapter 120 Confiscation of property and exile 13
"Miss, there are new dishes in Zui Xiang Lou. I heard that they are even more delicious than duck meat!" Bai Lu showed his greed.
Qiu Yu criticized her from the side, "I think you are more excited than the young lady, so why don't you just go and eat by yourself."
Bai Lu felt guilty for a moment, but soon said stubbornly: "If there is anything delicious, I must tell the lady first. The lady eats first and then I will eat."
These words were very pleasant to the ear. Zhu Yue, who was being flattered secretly, smiled and put down the notebook in his hand.
It just so happens that she has finished reading most of the books, so she can go to the bookstore to buy some more.
These ancient versions of fantasy are also quite interesting.
"Miss, you have fair skin. You will look very pretty in this long-sleeved dress with phoenix tails."
Qiuyu held the jewelry and combed Zhu Yue's hair into a bun. She didn't like to have a lot of jewelry stuffed in her hair, so this was good enough.
She put on a snow-covered brocade cloak and took two maids in a carriage to Zui Xiang Lou.
She lives happily here.
The protector, Zhu Yin, was well taken care of. The old lady and Zhu Wan regarded him as their lifeblood and showed great care to him every day after school.
In order to prevent this younger brother from being spoiled and becoming a playboy, Zhu Yue stopped being gentle and caring as before, and now pours cold water on Zhu Yin from time to time.
The protector Zhu Wan now has a new hobby. In addition to worshiping Buddha, she has fallen in love with making various pastries. She enjoys studying it every day, and Zhu Yue can often taste delicious food.
She doesn't need to put too much effort into these two people.
After going through a bumpy journey in exile, Zhu Yue now found that she seemed to have nothing to do after settling down.
I have been going out frequently recently. There are many interesting things in Youzhou City, and storybooks are just one of them. The main attractions are the various opera troupes, teahouses, etc.
The stronger the historical atmosphere of a place, the more well-preserved the civilization is.
If Zhu Yue had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that ancient dramas were truly excellent. The singing styles were completely different from modern ones and sounded a little strange at first, but the strange thing was that Zhu Yue could understand them easily and immerse himself in them.
"Miss, would you like to go to Zui Xiang Lou for dinner first and then continue to watch the opera after dinner?" Bai Lu asked with sparkling eyes.
Zhu Yue is not the only one who loves to listen to opera.
Zhu Yue nodded slightly, with a little more smile in her eyes.
"Yes, just like before."
After he finished speaking, Bai Lu and Qiu Yu both showed joy in their eyes.
If there was one thing that Zhu Yue was not satisfied with about Youzhou City, it was that it was too cold.
No wonder there are so many restaurants in the city. In such cold weather, people will love to drink strong liquor to warm their bodies.
Zhu Yue now occasionally enjoys the snow and has a couple of glasses of wine.
Although it doesn't taste very good, it is undeniable that after drinking it, not only will the body become warm, but it will also be easy to fall asleep.
"Bai Lu, is this the new dish you mentioned?"
Zhu Yue looked at the red, greasy chicken in front of her and asked in disbelief.
Bai Lu said confidently: "Miss, even though it doesn't look good, it must taste good. The cooking skills of Zui Xiang Lou's chef must be delicious!"
Zhu Yue still had some doubts. The appearance of this product was too bad.
Looks like he has no appetite at all.
"You try it first." She signaled to Bai Lu with her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Bai Lu picked up his chopsticks without hesitation and took a bite. His expression changed and his facial features twisted.
Zhu Yue laughed and said, "I was wondering, how could this thing taste good? Go ask them if they served the wrong dish."
Bai Lu had a bitter face. He couldn't vomit, so he had to swallow it with force. He just felt uncomfortable with the blockage in his throat, and he felt better after drinking two cups of tea.
"Yes, miss." She carried the dishes and hurried to the kitchen.
After a while, the shopkeeper came with Zhu Yue.
When he arrived, he first apologized to Zhu Yue and said that the dish was indeed served wrong. This dish was made by an apprentice who was trying his hand at cooking. The waiter was too busy and did not look carefully before serving it.
After explaining, the shopkeeper gave Zhu Yue another copy.
"Miss, here is our new dish, red stewed chicken. Please try it."
Zhu Yue nodded, didn't make things difficult, and waved his hand to let the people go.
He waved to Bai Lu and said, "Come, try this."
Bai Lu carefully picked up the chopsticks, took a small bite, put it in his mouth and smacked it for a while, his eyes slightly bright, "Miss, it's delicious!"
Zhu Yue also took a bite and said, "It's really good."
However, Zhu Yue didn't like this kind of oily dish, so she took a few bites and stopped eating.
She didn't eat much, so most of the food on the table was eaten by Bai Lu and Qiu Yu.
After dinner, she came to the theater, sat in the box, and listened to the lyrics coming from outside, and couldn't help but be immersed in it.
Time passed by unknowingly, and when Zhu Yue wanted to leave, it was already dark.
The guards wanted to come and remind him early on, but they couldn't get in.
Because the second prince also came to watch the show today and the theater was reserved, those who were still there could only come out after the second prince left, and no one else could enter.
Zhu Yue: "Qiu Yu, why is the lobby so noisy?"
Qiu Yu glanced at the chaos downstairs and said, "Miss, they seem to be saying that the Second Prince has reserved the entire place. I couldn't leave before. Miss, it turns out that His Highness is here today, too."
Zhu Yue was slightly surprised: "I see, it stands to reason that we should greet His Highness when we see him, but I guess His Highness doesn't want to see us either. Qiuyu, hurry up and take me out."
Qiuyu is the tallest among the three people. There are too many people now. Zhu Yue will be drowned in the crowd as soon as she goes out. Looking around, when she raises her head, she will see other people's shoulders. She is afraid that she can't tell the direction.
The theater is very big. It was better when there were fewer people there. Zhu Yue walked for quite a while.
Qiu Yu agreed and helped Zhu Yue put on the veil.
"Okay, Miss, let's go."
She and Bai Lu stood in front and behind Zhu Yue respectively, surrounding her to prevent others from approaching their young lady.
At this moment, Zhu Yue felt a gaze and couldn't help but look in the direction it came from.
She met the feminine and unpredictable face of Eunuch Gao, who was looking at her with a hint of sarcasm.
Zhu Yue: "..."
This person is such a mean person. He just didn't pay respect to your master, and he himself didn't care, but you still hold a grudge against him.
If you dare to get closer, Zhu Yue will throw a transparent bad luck talisman at you, and throw it every time she looks at you fiercely.
But Eunuch Gao could only look unwilling in the end. He did not dare to forget the Second Prince's instructions to him, which asked him to pay attention and safely see Second Miss Zhu off home.
Eunuch Gao thought of the beauty of Miss Zhu II and could understand His Highness's fondness for beauties, but this woman was not a docile person at all. She was unruly and unworthy of His Highness.
Zhu Yue had no idea of what Eunuch Gao was thinking. She squeezed out of the crowd and got on the carriage before she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Next time we should change the theater. This one is too big. Let's find a smaller one so this kind of thing won't happen again."
Bai Lu and Qiu Yu both looked like they had survived a disaster and nodded vigorously.
"By the way, I asked you to go backstage to give me a tip. Have you gone yet?"
