Before dark, Qining arrived at the Tianzhai. The old manager of the Tian family had been waiting in front of the door. When he saw Qining, he bowed respectfully and led Qi Ning to the elegant hall of the Tianzhai. Qining didn't see Mrs. Tian and asked : "Where has your wife gone?"
"Mr. Marquis, don't be surprised." The boss said hurriedly: "When Madam learned that Mr. Hou was coming over when he was free, she went to the kitchen in person and specially cooked some local dishes of Xichuan for Mr. Hou. Madam said that Mr. Hou was coming, so she invited him to be there. Rest in the elegant hall."
Qi Ning smiled and said, "Does your wife cook for you personally?" Following the old manager, he entered the elegant hall, but it was the same place he had been to last time. It was very clean and had two lampposts placed. Although the sky was still dark. It wasn't completely dark, but the lights were on and the room was very bright.
In the hall is a small round table of pear blossom wood with four chairs in a circle. A few steps away is a screen with a picture of a hundred birds embroidered on it. Several plates of snacks have been placed on the small round table of pear blossom wood, which looks exquisite. Quite, Qining smiled secretly. He knew that Mrs. Tian was a bit petty, but this time the reception seemed much more thoughtful than the last time.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the fragrance of snowy plum blossoms drifted gently in the wind. A plump beauty wearing a half-sleeved undershirt and a silk scarf wrapped her breasts had already entered the door. Although she was not very tall, her figure was very voluptuous. She was wearing a high bun. A mutton-fat jade bracelet is worn on Hao's slender wrist, and her skin is actually even smoother than the bracelet.
The outer half-sleeves are made of aqua blue tulle. This is obviously a casual clothing for home. It looks quite casual, but it fully displays the charm of a housewife, making her look mature and charming, with the gauze showing through. A pair of white and putty arms like snow lotus roots appeared, and the slender arms showed no trace of skinny.
This charming and mature woman was naturally Mrs. Tian. She came into the house with a tray in her hand. She saw Qi Ning and said with a smile: "Master Marquis is here. When you come, my house will be full of glory. The Marquis doesn't mind that we are poor people, and he is willing to sit here for a while. A commoner woman is lucky in her life."
She looked full of spring breeze, and her mature and charming face smiled, charming and charming.
Qi Ning smiled and said, "Ma'am, are you joking? Are you a poor commoner? Then I am not a beggar begging on the street. You have much more money in your pocket than I do."
Mrs. Tian put down the tray, smiled coquettishly, her flowers were spread out, her breasts were trembling, and she said: "The Marquis likes to make fun of us ordinary people. You are a high-ranking official. A casual word is worth thousands of gold. How can we, ordinary people, compare?" "Yes." Seeing that there was no water in Qining's cup, he frowned and said, "These useless things don't know how to serve." He picked up the kettle, walked over and gave Qining some tea, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, this Thank you so much for this time. I really don’t know how to repay you for your great kindness."
Mrs. Tian only wore a green tube top under her gauze arms. She didn't wear it like this on purpose. The weather was getting warmer day by day these days, and she was mostly at home. Gu Qinghan didn't wear more clothes than Mrs. Tian in the house. A dress, this tube top is decorated with bright peacock blue along the edge, and there is silver thread embroidery on the brocade.
In fact, Mrs. Tian's figure and frame are much smaller than Gu Qinghan's. She has slim shoulders and a pink neck. Because of her plump breasts, she looks quite plump.
After putting down the teapot, two more maids came in and brought the dishes. In just a moment, there were four meat, four and eight vegetarian dishes on the table, as well as soup. The whole table was full. Mrs. Tian really looked luxurious this time.
Qi Ning was a little surprised and asked: "Is there anyone else?"
Mrs. Tian smiled and said: "How can I say that among the common people in this market, who is qualified to accompany the Marquis?"
"Then there's no need for so many dishes, right?" Qining thought to himself that if there was no one else but himself and Mrs. Tian, the food on this table would really be a waste.
Mrs. Tian twisted her waist to face Qi Ning, with a smile like a flower, and said: "I heard that the emperor in the palace ate a meal, which had dozens or hundreds of dishes. Although the Marquis cannot have as many dishes as the emperor, this is A few dishes are inevitable.”
Qining laughed and said, "Madam, have you become rich and suddenly become generous?"
Mrs. Tian glanced at Qining with a reproachful look and said, "Master Hou, does this mean that I am usually very stingy?" Then she smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't make much money, but the hospital has already defaulted on its arrears." All the money has been settled, and today Tai Hospital sent someone to deliver two carts of medicinal materials, and the money was settled immediately. I have been doing business for so many years, and I have never heard that Tai Hospital does things so efficiently."
Qi Ning nodded and said: "That's good. In fact, in the future, just relying on the business of Tai Hospital will be enough to support you."
"I know this is all a gift from Lord Marquis." Mrs. Tian said gratefully: "That... that old guy from Tai Hospital has been expelled from Tai Hospital. Now a man named Hu is in charge of Dian Pharmacy. This Mr. Hu is very important to me. We are very nice and polite. We also said that there is no need to notify us in the future. A batch of medicinal materials will be delivered to Tai Hospital every ten days, and a list of medicinal materials will be given to us. Once the medicinal materials are delivered, as long as there are no problems, we can get the money immediately. It's settled." Her beautiful eyes turned slightly, her body leaned forward slightly, and she asked in a low voice: "Master Hou, is that person named Su... did you drive him away?"
Qi Ning picked up the tea cup, took a sip and said, "Do you think I am that capable? The people at the Taiyuan Hospital must have noticed his malpractice for personal gain, so they fired him. If I don't listen to you, I really don’t know.”
Mrs. Tian smiled half-heartedly, charmingly, and said: "Master Hou, just lie to me. If you think I don't know, Master Hu also said that if anything happens in the future, don't bother Master Hou, just tell him directly, and he will do his best." Try your best." He smiled coquettishly and said, "He is afraid that if he doesn't do well in the future, the Marquis will punish him, so he told us not to tell the Marquis if there is anything."
Qining smiled and said: "Is there anything else?" He nodded and said: "Anyway, it's okay. You can do business honestly from now on. You must remember, don't trade in inferior products in order to make more money in the future. It's too The medicinal materials in the hospital are all for the people in the palace, if something goes wrong, I can't protect you."
"I know, I know, but how can I do that?" Mrs. Tian said neatly: "I personally check the medicinal materials sent to Tai Hospital every time. I will not embarrass you."
She was quite excited at this time. Su Langcheng was expelled from the Taiyuan Hospital. The new Hu Langcheng looked at their Tianjia Medicine Company in a new light and took great care of them. After that, with Jin Yihou supporting him, there was no need to worry about anyone else in the Taiyuan Hospital. If you are looking for trouble, you can do business with Taiyuan Hospital for a long time. If you find a treasure, not only will you make a lot of money, but because of this kind of business, the reputation of Tianjia Medicine will only be better in the future, and the business will be more and more. big.
Looking at Qi Ning's face at this time, I just felt that the more I looked at it, the more pleasing it was to my eyes. Suddenly I thought of something and said: "Master Hou, wait a minute, I almost forgot." He stood up, twisted his waist and turned behind the screen, and soon He came out quickly, holding a wine jar in his hand. The wine jar looked old and very simple and elegant. Qining asked with a smile: "You said there is a good wine that has been collected for many years. Is this the jar?"
Mrs. Tian nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, this wine has been stored in the wine cellar for nearly ten years. When my husband was still alive, a friend from southern Xinjiang gave it to him, saying that this wine was extremely rare. After drinking it, , Happier than gods, prolongs life. It is said that this jar of wine costs more than one hundred taels of silver. My husband is reluctant to drink it, so he keeps it, but it's a pity...!" He sighed softly, and then smiled: "It's okay to leave it there. It just so happens that the Marquis also likes to drink two cups, so I asked the Marquis to try it and see how it tastes."
Qining took the wine jar and patted open the seal. A strange fragrance came to his nose. It not only had a strong wine fragrance, but also a floral fragrance, which looked like peonies and orchids. He really couldn't determine what kind of floral fragrance it was. Tian The lady couldn't help but said: "The aroma of this wine is really delicious. Lord Marquis, let me pour some wine for you." She took the wine jar, poured half a cup into Qining's cup, hugged the wine jar and said, "Master Marquis, You try how it tastes, and if you don’t like it, try something else.”
Qin Ning saw that the wine had a slight vermilion color, which he had never seen before. He took a sip from the cup and tasted the taste. Then he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup. He only felt that the entrance was refreshing and the wine had a mellow aroma, but there was something in it. The fragrance of the flowers was overflowing and refreshing. He nodded and said: "The taste is indeed good. Although it is a little weak, the taste is still unsatisfactory."
Mrs. Tian was even more happy when she heard Qin Ning's praise. She hurriedly poured it for Qin Ning and said, "This wine has a name, it's called Baihua Niang. If the Marquis is in the West, I'll send someone to look for it later and collect it for the Marquis." Some come over here.”
Qi Ning smiled and said: "Thank you very much." He raised his hand and said: "You can sit down too. You and Taiyuan will be in peace in the future. It's time to congratulate you. Come on, let me toast you."
"No, no, no." Mrs. Tian waved her hands repeatedly: "I respect the Marquis. If it weren't for the Marquis, our Tian family medicine store wouldn't even be able to get close to the gate of Tai Hospital. The Tian family will never forget the kindness of the Marquis." Busy. He poured himself a glass, held the glass in his jade hand, and said, "Please, Mr. Marquis!" He drank the wine in one gulp first.
