After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 317 Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes
Pei Yuan was very vigilant. He immediately lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and found that it was Prince Gong walking over.

Today, Prince Gong did not put on airs as a prince. He only brought one attendant with him and was dressed in casual clothes.

Pei Yuan quickly got out of the car and said, "Greetings, Prince Gong."

Prince Gong glanced into the sedan chair and his eyes met Su Xiaoxiao's.

"Where are you going? I heard you just got married a few days ago, is that right?"

"Yes, Your Highness, that is indeed the case."

Why didn't they tell me beforehand that this was such a good thing, so I could come and congratulate them?

Su Xiaoxiao lifted the sedan curtain and stepped out of the carriage. Looking into Prince Gong's eyes, she said, "No need for that. Prince Gong, you are so busy with state affairs, how could I possibly invite you here?"

"How could that be? No matter how busy I am, I still have to attend Boss Su's wedding! It's such a pity!"

Su Xiaoxiao cupped her hands in thanks to Prince Gong and said, "Thank you very much. May I ask what business Prince Gong has with my wife and me?"

Su Xiaoxiao deliberately emphasized the words "husband and wife" in her tone, intending for Prince Gong to hear and to make him be a little more sensible.

Everyone knows this guy is a womanizer, and no one knows what strange thoughts he has about Su Xiaoxiao.

"It's alright, we're just killing time anyway, how about we go to the teahouse up ahead and have a cup of tea together?"

Prince Gong pointed to the teahouse ahead. Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Pei Yuan, then bowed to Prince Gong again and said, "Excuse me, my husband and I are about to have dinner. We can go for tea another day. Your Highness, we'll meet again sometime, won't we?"

Prince Gong blushed and felt a little embarrassed after Su Xiaoxiao's words.

"Yes, Mr. Su is absolutely right. Let's talk about it another day then."

"Bei Yan, let's get the carriage going!"

Bei Yan, that kid, was also impatient, a bit too reckless, he raised his hand and cracked his whip on their horses, "Giddy up!"

The next moment, the carriage sped off, almost running over Prince Gong's feet.

Prince Gong was furious, and he almost started cursing at Su Xiaoxiao behind her back, disregarding his image.

"That widow, she's just relying on her looks, what's so great about her? She's been married so many times, who knows?"

Su Xiaoxiao also heard the insults, but she didn't take them seriously. However, Pei Yuan was extremely angry.

"Stop the carriage, I'll go down and teach him a lesson."

Pei Yuan thought to himself, "Can I not take this generalship? Today I'm going to fight Prince Gong to the bitter end."

This guy is outrageous, insulting my wife like that.

Just as Bei Yan was about to stop as he instructed, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly grabbed Pei Yuan's arm.

"No way. He was cursing at me just now. If anyone's going to beat him up, it'll be me. Next time I get the chance, I'll teach him a lesson."

Su Xiaoxiao was right; that was indeed what she thought. If Pei Yuan were to personally intervene, the matter would likely escalate significantly.

"Ok."

Pei Yuan suppressed his anger, but Su Xiaoxiao wasn't very happy either.

A man like Prince Gong is just a sour grapes.

Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "I'll teach him a lesson someday."

The two of them arrived at Baxianlou Restaurant together; the private room had already been reserved.

The incident earlier did not affect Su Xiaoxiao's mood while eating; she ordered several of Baxianlou's delicious dishes.

Just pile all the good stuff on the table, like sweet and sour pork, stir-fried potatoes, eggplant, and green peppers, sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet potato starch noodles, and cold noodles. These dishes aren't exactly fancy, but I just love them.

While eating, Su Xiaoxiao kept glancing around to see if Qian Musheng was there.

After searching for a long time, they still couldn't find Qian Musheng.

Where is your young master?

Su Xiaoxiao took a moment to ask the waiter who was serving the dishes, but the waiter shook his head and said he didn't know.

Su Xiaoxiao seemed a little disappointed until she saw a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes on the table, and she was truly shocked.

"Your Baxianlou restaurant actually serves this dish? Where did you get these tomatoes from?"

Just as Su Xiaoxiao was about to grab the young shop assistant and ask him a question, a voice came from behind her.

"Mr. Su, it's been a long time."

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Qian Musheng.

He finally appeared, and Su Xiaoxiao's heart actually stirred.

Perhaps she was genuinely happy; she hadn't seen Qian Musheng in a very long time.

When he saw that person appear in front of him, he was actually quite excited, and his heart began to leap with joy.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Qian Musheng, "Hello, it's been a long time. How did you know I like this dish?"

Qian Musheng smiled, "It's not that I knew, it was General Pei who came over in advance and told us to prepare. After I found out, I went to find Bruce, and he happened to have some tomatoes left that he hadn't sold. So he brought them all over for us, and I told the kitchen to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes according to what you wanted to eat."

"Oh I see!"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Pei Yuan with great gratitude. Pei Yuan, who was standing next to her, smiled at Su Xiaoxiao in a cool manner and said, "It's nothing, I know you like to eat them. I've bought a lot of tomato seedlings and planted them in the yard, but unfortunately most of them have died. I've put the rest in the greenhouse. If you like to eat them, you can take them to the kitchen anytime."

Su Xiaoxiao was even happier when she heard this.

She expressed her emotions boldly, stepping forward to hug Pei Yuan's neck and kissing him on the cheek.

When Qian Musheng and Bei Yan saw this from behind, they immediately turned their heads away.

"I really can't stand you newlyweds like this."

Qian Musheng smiled helplessly.

"Ha ha……"

Su Xiaoxiao seemed very happy, and Qian Musheng also sat down to have lunch with her and Pei Yuan.

During the meal, they talked about business for a long time. Although Pei Yuan couldn't understand what they were talking about, he willingly stayed by their side.

Su Xiaoxiao felt very happy to have made a friend like Qian Musheng.

Su Xiaoxiao hadn't paid attention to business matters at all; Qian Musheng had been handling everything for her, yet everything was proceeding smoothly and in an orderly manner, which made Su Xiaoxiao very content.

“We just ran into Prince Gong. He was so angry with me that he was jumping up and down. That guy is getting more and more outrageous. He even cursed at me. If it weren’t for him, we would have turned against him long ago if our soy sauce business in the capital didn’t depend on him.”

"It's still a bit early. Actually, I've been fed up with that guy's attitude for a long time."

Qian Musheng also revealed the truth: he did indeed dislike Prince Gong.

However, his business in Beijing still relied on Prince Gong, which was something he couldn't help but find difficult to manage, and it was indeed a major headache.
