Chapter 817 Birthday Congratulations (7)

Caiwei sat down opposite Huo Yuan, raising her delicate face with a look of pride and confidence.

Huo Yuan laughed, raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let me give it a try!"

After saying that, he stretched out his ivory chopsticks, picked up a piece of fine white fish meat, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

He was very polite when he ate, and he made no sound at all when he pursed his lips. He was somewhat similar to Nangong Yi's eating appearance.

Caiwei held her chin and watched him eating slowly. She suddenly thought of the man far away in Lingbei. She hadn't seen him for a few days and wondered how he was doing now. After leaving Lingbei, the postman he sent said that he would attack Kashgar in the next two days. Kashgar is just a small city like Yushu County with a small population. I think he will be able to conquer it smoothly! As long as he can win every game, plus the pressure she puts on Tuoba Kui, there is no need to worry about Lingbei not surrendering.

When the time comes, he will definitely be allowed to return to Jin Dynasty in great glory. The prince is already useless. Maybe through this battle, the emperor can change his mind and make him the prince. Although she didn't want to be the queen, things in the court were treacherous. Take Concubine Jin as an example. If she didn't assassinate Nangong Yi, she would kill her own family. Therefore, in order to avoid such a thing from happening , she thought it would be better to keep the political power in her own hands!

"Well, it's not bad. No wonder my sister is so confident!"

Here, Huo Yuan had already tasted Caiwei's boiled fish and praised it without hesitation.

"My sister is really good at her craft. If she could open a restaurant specializing in this fish, she would definitely make a lot of money!"

Caiwei said: "Actually, I still have several projects to invest in. It's just that I haven't been in Beijing for a short time and I don't have capable manpower, so many money-making ideas have been suppressed. Otherwise, Brother Huo can help me." How many people do you recommend?"

Huo Yuan thought for a while and said, "I have a few reliable people in my hands. If you want to do anything, just come to me."

"No need, those people were trained by Brother Huo with great difficulty. If they were given to me, wouldn't there be a famine in your place!"

Although she wanted someone, she didn't want to owe Huo Yuan any favors, so she refused without even thinking about it.

Huo Yuan insisted, "Thanks to my sister who sent the parrot to report the news a few days ago, we learned about Concubine Jin's plot and saved Concubine Xian and Prince Jing from the pain of separation. Our whole family is very grateful to my sister." , I don’t know how to express my gratitude to my sister, but coincidentally, my sister is begging for help from me. They are just a few servants. The Huo family has many, so I just feel free to use it..."

Caiwei said: "Brother Huo, why should I take these trivial matters to heart? If you are really splitting the difference with me like this, how can it be that Brother Huo helped me open a business trip with just a small fortune? There is also Shangsi. The jewelry Brother Huo gave me for the festival is probably worth seven or eight thousand taels, but I accepted it without even thinking about it. If I really want to be serious, I don't dare to accept those things!"

Her words suddenly made Huo Yuan feel better. He smiled brightly and said, "Okay, it's up to you. There won't be such a clear distinction between us in the future."

The two of them were talking and moving their chopsticks. On the table, in addition to the boiled fish made by Caiwei, there were also the Mu family's specialty - barbecue skewers, and a few cold dishes, although they were not as good as the delicacies of the mountains and seas. But it had a different taste. It was so delicious that Huo Yuan made an exception and ate two bowls of rice. He almost finished the boiled fish dish Cai Wei made before putting down his chopsticks!
