Chapter 791: Chapter 228: County Life Routine, Fourth Grade of Human Soul, Brand-New Power

After she said this, laughter erupted from the neighboring table.

Xiaoyu’Er angrily looked over, only to see two couples dining at the next table, and the laughter came from a young man in the group.

"Bragging, aren’t you? A few barrels, huh? Let me tell you, even King Chu only asked for five barrels."

The young man laughed heartily, and his friends joined in the mocking, looking at Xiaoyu’Er as if she were a clown.

Xiaoyu’Er was so angry her teeth were grinding.

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "Drinking less is also nice."

"Hmph!" Xiaoyu’Er glared at Li Yuan, thinking to herself, "How could my man be like this? His wife is being mocked, and he’s trying to stop me, and says drinking less is better, seriously."

Meanwhile, the young man who was mocking earlier boasted loudly, "Waiter, is our Spring Brew warmed up yet?!"

Xiaoyu’Er became even more furious!

However, after a while, most of her anger dissipated. She ignored the neighboring table and continued eating, drinking Spring Water Brew, and softly said, "Husband, husband."

"What is it?"

"I’ve heard that there’s a reason this restaurant is so popular."

Xiaoyu’Er leaned closer and lowered her voice further, "Do you know whose restaurant this once was?"

Li Yuan: ...

Xiaoyu’Er said, "It’s said that when Lady Yama was still a mortal, she had a husband, and this restaurant belonged to him.

And now, the restaurant has grown, with many business associations behind it. But no matter how much money is made, most of it is spent on the people.

So, everyone likes it here and respects the restaurant. You see, every staff member in the building has pride in their eyes."

Li Yuan nodded.

But he didn’t want to continue with this topic.

Yet Xiaoyu’Er playfully continued, "Do you know who her husband is? I’ll tell you, he’s amazing, a legend among legends."

Li Yuan: ...

Seeing that Xiaoyu’Er was about to continue, he swiftly picked a piece of fish with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, then moved his chopsticks like lightning, his arm leaving behind shadow-like traces.

Xiaoyu’Er blinked her eyes, saying, "Hey, hey, slow down, leave some for me!"

With that, she forgot about telling the legend and started competing with her husband for food.

She thought of her second sister in the Deep Palace.

That woman who holds power over the world, is she... really happy?

Can she be as carefree as herself, competing with her beloved for food without any concern for decorum, and then think about whether to visit the night market after finishing?

"Xiaoyu’Er, I’m going to the restroom." Li Yuan suddenly stood up.

"Oh... come back quick."

Xiaoyu’Er responded.

A moment later, Li Yuan returned, carrying two wine jars, which he gently placed beside Xiaoyu’Er and said, "Wife, I saw you like the Spring Dream Brew, so I specially got two jars."

In the distance, the young man who had been mocking couldn’t hold back his laughter.

But the next moment, Li Yuan opened the sealed mud, and the rich and enticing aroma of Spring Dream wafted out.

This scent, unique to Spring Dream, instantly froze the expressions of those laughing.

Each person stared wide-eyed, mouth agape, big enough to fit a whole goose egg.

And among them was Xiaoyu’Er.

"Rea... really the Spring Dream?"

Xiaoyu’Er asked, stammering.

Li Yuan said, "I got lucky and ran into an old friend, who said he stashed some Spring Dream, so he gifted me two jars, please drink."

After speaking, he began pouring the wine.

In the restaurant, there was no shortage of dignitaries, and suddenly many rushed downstairs, some looking for Zhang San, others for Li Si, all asking, "Why don’t we have any?"

However, all the answers they received were... the wine was a gift from the boss, you’d have to find the boss.

But who is the boss?

A few dignitaries knew, that it’s the White Impermanence of the Judge’s Court, who could approach such a master?

White Impermanence is the great general under Lady Yama.

If he wants to offer someone two jars of wine, it’s an exception.

The crowd helplessly retreated.

Xiaoyu’Er was happily drinking, enjoying the envious looks from others, and quietly asked, "Husband, you know White Impermanence?"

Li Yuan nodded: "We have a bit of a connection, happened to trade for two jars of wine."

Xiaoyu’Er asked again, "Wouldn’t it be a waste?"

Li Yuan shook his head, softly saying, "As long as you’re happy, it’s fine."

As the two were talking, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the stairs. In no time, a middle-aged man, slightly plump with a smiling face and dressed in fine clothing, ran to Li Yuan’s table. He took out an exquisite Jade Token from his sleeve and said, "I am Xue Jinbao, the shopkeeper of Hengwu Restaurant. This is our VIP Guest Token. From now on, whoever holds this token can enter the restaurant anytime without queuing.

If you want to drink Spring Dream, just give the word, and a waiter will go to the workshop to fetch it for you.

This token isn’t just used here but can be used in all of Hengwu’s external businesses, including tea houses, restaurants, all can be used.

There are only three of these tokens in total, Lady Yu, yours is the first."

Xie Yu stared blankly at the token, momentarily forgetting to accept it.

Meanwhile, the eyes of the surrounding guests almost turned green.

Xue Jinbao respectfully saluted, then turned and left.

Xie Yu, as if in a dream, took the token and slightly turned it over, seeing the words "Lady Yu" engraved in ancient script on the back.

Li Yuan smiled wryly: "Didn’t expect such a favor from him, Xiaoyu’Er, just keep it."

Xie Yu looked around, then looked at the young man and woman who had just mocked her, suddenly raised her hand and waved, her pretty face lifted with a happy smile.
