Chapter 104 Treating Guests

The house can vaguely see its former grandeur, but the door plaque is covered with dust.

Yaren stepped forward and opened the door and explained: "The owner of the house originally left someone to guard the door, but the house could not be sold for a long time, and there were such rumors, so he left the key with the villain."

As the door opened, countless fine dust particles jumped in the light beam, making people's throats feel itchy.

Yaren waved his sleeves: "You three, please."

Lin Hao looked at it while walking.

The house occupies a large area, with several courtyards spread across it. There are withered weeds and thick accumulations of fallen leaves everywhere.

"Don't look at the desolation. Once the weeds are removed, the bricks are washed, and the roof is rested for a while, people will be able to live in it. Such a big house will have room for dozens of people." Yaren tried his best to talk about the advantages of the house.

Lin Hao quite agreed with Yaren's words.

The house looks deserted, but in fact it is not dilapidated. It can be lived in with a little rest. The Ya people said that it is a house with a few dozen people because it is a good family. If it is to take in beggars, it is not a problem to live in two to three hundred people.

Ya Ren led the three of them around and asked Lin Hao with a smile: "What do you think?"

"return--"

Qi Shuo calmly answered: "It's still too shabby, why don't you look at something else?"

Lin Hao glanced at Qi Shuo and nodded calmly: "Yes, then let's look at something else."

Judging from her many interactions with Prince Jing, Prince Jing is a person with a sense of proportion, and there must be a reason for saying this.

Ya Ren was extremely disappointed, but he did not dare to offend anyone: "Then let's look at other houses. There are still many houses for sale. There is always something suitable."

Back at Yaxing, Yaren recommended several houses, all of which were within the market price range and within the requirements. Lin Hao simply asked the steward to run around with Yaren and choose the most suitable one to buy.

On the way back home, there were only two people, Lin Hao and Qi Shuo.

"Your Majesty, what do you think is wrong with that house?" Lin Hao asked confused.

Qi Shuo raised the corners of her lips slightly, happy to see Lin Hao's directness and casualness.

"I don't know if that house is haunted or not, but there are traces of human activity."

Lin Hao was stunned.

She listened to the dentist's introduction and focused on the layout and condition of the house, not paying attention to such details.

"The door is locked. There is dust on the door and steps, but there are traces of human activity inside, which shows that it was not a normal way to get in. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better not to buy it."

Lin Hao nodded: "Your Majesty is right."

She took in the beggar because of the compassion moved by Brother Axing. If something happened to the beggar because of problems with her residence, it would be hard to feel at ease.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding me."

Qi Shuo clasped her hands behind her hands, with a smile in her eyes: "How are Miss Lin going to thank you?"

Lin was stunned.

Are you so... you're welcome?

Then I thought about it, Prince Jing had indeed helped a lot, and it was meaningless to always express his gratitude verbally.

"Then let me treat the prince to dinner. It just happens to be more convenient today." Lin Hao took a look at the men's clothes on his body and asked Qi Shuo with a smile, "What does the prince want to eat?"

"I know a shop that makes a delicious white meat pot with pickled vegetables. Miss Lin Er, would you like to try it?"

Lin Hao agreed as soon as he heard it.

Eating hot sauerkraut and white meat pot in winter makes you feel comfortable just thinking about it.

Qi Shuo smiled: "Then follow me."

Lin Hao followed Qi Shuo across two streets and came to an inconspicuous restaurant.

The restaurant is run by an old couple. When they saw Qi Shuo, they greeted him warmly: "Young Master is here with friends today. Please sit down quickly."

Qi Shuo sat down and ordered dishes familiarly: "A sauerkraut and white meat pot, and a few plates of refreshing side dishes."

"How many bottles of wine do you want?"

Qi Shuo looked at Lin Hao.

Lin Hao said hurriedly: "I can drink."

Qi Shuo turned to the shopkeeper and said, "I don't want wine, but a pot of hot tea."

Lin Hao: "..."

Soon the steaming hot pot was brought to the table. Large pieces of pork belly soaked in soup were tumbling in the medium-sized copper pot, and the aroma of sauerkraut filled your nostrils.

In addition to white meat and sauerkraut, white tofu, radish slices, fresh mushrooms and other items are also cooked in the pot. A few pieces of bright red chili are simmering with the soup, which can arouse people's appetite.

Lin Hao took a gentle breath of the aroma of the food.

"Try to see if it suits your taste."

Lin Hao picked up a piece of meat, rolled it with dipping sauce and put it in his mouth, his eyes lit up.

The thinly sliced ​​meat is truly fat but not greasy and melts in your mouth.

"It's delicious." She praised sincerely.

Food really can cure everything.

"You can still eat it like this." Qi Shuo sandwiched a piece of white meat and dipped it in a plate of chili noodles. The white meat dipped in chili noodles looked even more delicious, "His chili noodles are secretly made, so they are not very spicy.

"

Lin Hao also dipped the meat slices in chili noodles, which was a different kind of deliciousness than dipping it in a sauce with curd and chive flowers.

After a while, she was eating until the tip of her nose was sweating, and every pore was ironed to perfection.

"How did the prince find this shop?"

Qi Shuo poured a glass of water for her and said with a smile: "I have been to many small shops that are not famous but have great taste. There is a small shop that cooks the roast chicken very well, the skin is crispy and the bones are rotten, and the taste is delicious..."

Lin Hao swallowed silently.

She suspected that he was deliberately coveting her!

"When Miss Lin Er has free time, I will take you to try it." The young man quietly invited.

"Okay." Before Lin Hao could react, he had already agreed on her behalf.

Lin Hao wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, feeling secretly annoyed.

She is not such a glutton!

Looking at the smiling young man, Lin Hao sighed.

It was all because Prince Jing was so good at describing things that he made her feel that it would be a huge loss not to be able to eat those delicacies.

After the two of them finished eating, they walked together and went back to their respective homes.

The little princess went to Princess Jing and met her brother on the way.

"Brother is back from outside?"

"Um."

Qi Qiong suddenly approached and moved his nose.

Qi Shuo took a step back: "What's wrong?"

Qi Qiong raised her head, her eyes full of accusations: "Brother, you ate the pickled cabbage and white meat pot!"

Qi Shuo did not deny it: "It's the right time to eat this."

Qi Qiong pursed her lips and asked, "Is it the small shop at the entrance of Tongqian Hutong that my eldest brother mentioned in the summer, which looks ordinary but is actually amazing?"

"yes."

"Brother, have you forgotten? At that time, you said you would take me to eat when the weather gets cold."

A voice came: "What are you going to eat?"

When Qi Qiong saw Qi Huan, she immediately complained: "When the weather was hot, my eldest brother mentioned that there was a small shop that made pickled cabbage and white meat pot that was very good, and he said that he would take me to try it when winter comes. Who would have thought that my eldest brother would go to eat with others today?

Got it!"

Qi Shuo smiled and asked: "How did you know that I ate with others?"

"No need to ask, someone needs to be with you to eat the pot."

Listening to the conversation between his brother and his younger sister, Qi Huan felt something was wrong: "Wait a minute."

The two looked over.

Qi Huan frowned and looked at Qi Qiong: "When did eldest brother say that he would take us to eat pickled cabbage and white meat pot, why didn't I know?"

Qi Qiong blinked, suddenly no longer feeling uncomfortable.
