After speaking, Zhao Weidong accompanied Ye Xiaofang to the roof platform, and as soon as he walked out of the stairwell, Ye Xiaofang shouted at a glance:

"Wow, you still have such a beautiful private garden hidden here."

Ye Xiaofang originally thought that the roof of the building must be very empty, what is there to see, but she didn't expect it to be different from her imagination, the roof turned out to be such a beautiful rooftop garden, with a 100-square-meter seawater swimming pool, and an artificial beach next to it, paved with clean sea sand, and a few wooden deck chairs by the pool.

There are man-made waterfalls, seaview fish ponds, and there are many colorful ornamental fish; There are ornamental trees, many beautiful flowers, and high-end lawns, like green carpets; A square pavilion carved with exquisite patterns was also built, and a granite garden table was placed in the middle, equipped with four stone chairs, and the four sides had a wide field of vision; Ye Xiaofang held Zhao Weidong's arm and walked along the winding roof garden path, the path is quiet, it is really a good place, Ye Xiaofang said:

"Brother, your roof flower is so beautiful, is this your idea?"

"No, this is my Sister Lingjun's idea, I was surprised when I walked to the roof, this idea is really good, and I am also very satisfied."

"How could it be her idea, I thought it was your idea."

Zhao Weidong heard the sour taste from her words, what is she doing, why is she still eating Sister Lingjun's vinegar, Zhao Weidong said to Ye Xiaofang after walking around the roof garden:

"Sister Xiaofang, that's all there is to it, after the tour, it's quite hot on it, let's go to the office and sit down?"

"Okay, let's go down and sit down, and give you a chance to invite this beauty to dinner today, you have to cherish it." Ye Xiaofang tilted her head and said to Zhao Weidong with a smile.

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity, I feel very honored to invite you to dinner." Zhao Weidong said in a very respectful tone, Ye Xiaofang laughed and said:

"Even if you know each other, you didn't refuse. Okay, I'm going to eat Western food. ”

"Okay, let's go eat Western food, it's about the same time now."

"Okay, let's go now."

"You want to eat there, I'll listen to your command."

"Okay, I'll show the way."

Zhao Weidong knows that Hong Kong has been a British colony for more than 100 years, and the residents are mixed with Western and Chinese living customs, and the catering industry must not only cater to Western cooking habits, but also take into account the tastes of Chinese people, so it has formed a unique cuisine - Hong Kong-style Western food.

It is characterized by authentic production and mellow taste, such as veal steak, which is very fragrant and delicious, and has an endless aftertaste after eating, which leaves a deep impression on Zhao Weidong.

Zhao Weidong has also lived in Hong Kong for a year, and he can be said to know more about Hong Kong, he knows that the average Hong Kong person lives in a small place, and is used to going to a restaurant to drink tea or go out for breakfast in the morning, and relatives and friends rarely get together at home. Especially in hot weather, Hong Kong people can enjoy air-conditioning for breakfast in restaurants for several hours.

The restaurant with good business is already full at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, and most of them are Cantonese customers. Some people come and go in a hurry because they have to go to work after the meal, and some people hold a newspaper of the day and order a breakfast to drink alone, just to kill time and enjoy life.

In order to cater to the tastes of Hong Kong people, Western restaurants also prepare congee, noodles and noodles that are unique to Cantonese restaurants. Porridge is mostly preserved egg and lean pork porridge, seafood porridge, raw rolled fish fillet porridge, champion and first porridge, etc., nothing more than white rice porridge with fresh fish fillets, dried scallops and the like.

Noodles are noodles made of rice flour, there are two kinds of fried rice noodles and soup noodles, which are wider like flour skin, called pho. The noodles are not like the north that are cooked in water, but fried in oil, because the noodles are treated with oil, so they are fried very chewy and oily. There is also fried noodles in a pot until golden brown, which is fragrant and crispy, and is locally called "two-sided yellow".

Zhao Weidong drove in the car, Ye Xiaofang sat in the co-pilot's seat, Hong Kong is on the left, it's too cheating, Zhao Weidong has been driving in Hong Kong for half a year, still not used to it, inadvertently often want to drive on the right, often reminded by the car on the left, so he didn't take the wrong road, Ye Xiaofang commanded Zhao Weidong to come to the Taipingguan restaurant on Pak Sha Road in Causeway Bay, she introduced:

"This is a famous Hong Kong-style Western restaurant in Hong Kong, founded in 1860, with its first branch in Taiping Sand, Guangzhou." The "Taiping Pavilion" was taken from the location where it opened, and became the first Western restaurant in Guangzhou and the first Chinese-run Western restaurant in China.

At present, Tai Ping Kuan has three branches in Hong Kong, located in Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei and Pak Sha Road, Causeway Bay. The food in this Hong Kong-style restaurant is particularly in line with our Hong Kong tastes, and you will know it once you have tasted it. ”

Although Zhao Weidong doesn't like to eat Western food very much, he doesn't exclude experiencing foreign food culture, so he has eaten many times before, when entering the restaurant, Zhao Weidong opened the door of the restaurant and invited Ye Xiaofang to enter, and he also went in, Zhao Weidong asked her to walk in front.

Until now, the Hong Kong Taiping Museum still follows the decoration style and decoration method of a hundred years ago, and it is also antique, and the seats used are all "card seats" with the characteristics of Nanyue Western restaurants.

The two sat down on the booth, and then the waiter of the restaurant immediately came over and gave the menu to Zhao Weidong, and after he took the menu, he immediately handed the menu to Ye Xiaofang and said:

"Sister Xiaofang, come on."

After she took the menu, she put down the menu without reading it, and casually ordered a few specialties:

"Swiss chicken wings, roasted pigeon, baked crab cap, smoked fish, stir-fried beef river in Swiss sauce, fruit salad, a bottle of good red wine, you can give him one of these dishes, give me half a portion, and then two glasses of Kona coffee, and two glasses of champagne first."

After Ye Xiaofang finished ordering, she opened the napkin and folded it inward by one-third, so that two-thirds were spread flat on her legs, covering her legs above the knees.

She knew that Zhao Weidong had a large amount of food, and she knew that she had ordered a lot, but she still didn't know the bottom in her heart, were these enough for Zhao Weidong? It should be about the same, and soon the things I wanted will come one after another.

This meal took an hour to eat, and there are really a lot of rules for eating Western food.

The more upscale the hotel, the more you need to make a reservation in advance. When making a reservation, not only should you specify the number of people and time, but also indicate whether you want a smoking area or a seat with a good view.

If it is a birthday or other special day, you can inform the purpose and budget of the banquet. Arriving at the scheduled time is basic courtesy.

No matter how expensive casual clothes are, you can't wear them to the restaurant casually.

When entering the restaurant, men should open the door first and women should be invited to enter. If there is a waiter to take a seat, you should also ask the lady to walk in front. When seated and when food is served, women should be given priority.

Even if it's a group event, don't forget to let the ladies get ahead of the curve.

It is common knowledge for Europeans and Americans to dress appropriately when eating. When going to a fancy restaurant, men should wear neat shirts and leather shoes; Ladies should wear suits and shoes with heels. If formal attire is specified, men must wear a tie.

Take a seat on the left side of the chair. The best way to sit is from the left side. When the chair is pulled away and the body stands up straight almost at a distance from the table, the leader will push the chair in and sit down when the leg bends against the chair behind it.

When seated, keep your body upright, keep your elbows off the table, don't stilt your feet, and keep your distance from the table so that you can use utensils. Don't mess with the utensils that have been set up on the table. Fold the napkin in half and gently place it on your lap.

The formal order of the full course is as follows: vegetables and soups, fruits, meats, cheeses, desserts and coffee, fruits, as well as aperitifs and house wines. There is no need to order them all, it is rude to order too much but not finish eating. Restaurants with a slight level of quality do not welcome people who only order appetizers.

An appetizer, a main course (fish or meat) and a dessert are the most appropriate combinations. A la carte doesn't start with an appetizer, but rather a main dish that you want to eat the most, followed by a soup that suits the main course.

Don't pretend to be an expert when ordering alcohol. In a fine dining restaurant, there will be a bartender who is good at wine tasting with a wine list. If you don't know much about alcohol, it's best to tell him the dishes you choose, your budget, and the taste of your favorite alcohol, and ask the bartender to help you choose.

For the main course, if it is meat, it should be paired with red wine, and fish should be served with white wine. Before serving, a glass of lighter wine such as champagne, sherry or gil should be served.

Napkins can be opened before eating. After ordering, open the napkin before the appetizer arrives and fold it in a third of the way so that two-thirds is flat on your legs and cover your legs above your knees. It is better not to tuck the napkin into the neckline.

When eating, the upper arms and back should be leaned against the back of the chair, the abdomen and the table should be kept at a distance of about a fist, and the sitting position with two forks is best avoided.

Do not unbutton or undress in public during meals. If the host asks the guest to loosen his clothes, the male guest can take off his coat and put it on the back of the chair, and do not leave his coat or carry-on items on the dining table.

Do not wear makeup at the table, wipe your nose with a napkin. Hiccups during meals are the biggest no-no, and in case this happens, you should immediately apologize to those around you. Do not stand up when taking food, and ask someone to pass on food that you can't reach while sitting.

Talk to the guests on the left and right during the meal, but avoid loud talking and laughing. Don't just talk to a few acquaintances, if you don't know each other, you can introduce yourself. Don't interject when others speak.

Don't put too much food in your mouth each time, don't talk while chewing, and don't take the initiative to talk to people.

When eating chicken, Europeans and Americans mostly value chicken breast. When eating chicken thighs, you should first remove the bones with force, and do not hold them with your hands.

When eating fish, do not turn the fish over, and when you eat the upper layer after eating the upper layer, use a knife and fork to remove the fish bones and then eat the lower layer, you should cut one piece and eat one piece, and the piece should not be too large, or cut the meat into pieces at once.

Fish is very tender and crumbly, so restaurants often have a special spoon instead of a knife. This spoon is slightly larger and flatter than that used in soups, and can be used to cut up dishes and scoop them up with sauces.

If you want to eat other mixed vegetables, it is better to use a fork. When handling fish bones, first use a knife to pierce a straight line near the gills of the fish, the tip of the knife should not pierce through, and the halfway point can be pierced.

After picking the upper body of the fish, start from the beginning, place the knife under the bone, cut it in the direction of the tail of the fish, remove the bone and move it to the corner of the plate. Finally, cut off the tail of the fish.

How to drink alcohol. When drinking, you should never suck and drink, but tilt the glass and drink as if you were putting the wine on your tongue. Gently shake the glass to bring the wine into contact with the air to add to the mellow flavor, but do not shake the glass violently.

In addition, it is rude to drink it all and look at people through a wine glass while drinking. Do not wipe the lipstick mark on the rim of the cup with your fingers, it is better to wipe it with a tissue.

You can't suck the soup either. Scoop up the soup with a spoon from back to front, placing the bottom of the spoon on the lower lip to put the soup in your mouth.

It is better to have the spoon at a 45° angle to the mouth. The upper half of the body leans slightly forward. When there is not much soup left in the bowl, use your fingers to raise the bowl slightly. If the soup is served in a bowl with a grip ring, you can just hold the grip and drink it.

How to eat bread. The principle of tearing into small pieces with both hands first, and then taking it with your left hand to eat. When eating hard bread, it is not only laborious to tear it by hand and the crumbs will fall all over the ground, so you can use a knife to cut it in half and then tear it into pieces with your hands.

Avoid cutting bread like a saw, and stab the other half with a knife first. When cutting, use your hands to fix the bread to avoid making a sound.

If you are willing to add milk or sugar when drinking coffee, stir well with a small spoon after adding it, and place the small spoon on the coffee pad. When drinking, you should hold the cup handle in your right hand, put the dish in your left hand, and drink directly with your mouth, not with a small spoon scooping spoon by spoon.

When eating fruit, do not bite the fruit whole, but first cut it into four or main petals with a fruit knife, and then use a knife to remove the skin and core, and use a fork to eat.

How to use a knife and fork. The basic principle is to hold a knife or spoon in your right hand and a fork in your left hand. If there are more than two handfuls, they should be taken inward from the outermost handful.

The knife and fork should be held lightly with the tail end and the index finger pressed on the handle. The spoon can be held with a pen. If it doesn't feel convenient, you can switch to the right hand to hold the fork, but if you change it frequently, it will look rude.

When eating bulky vegetables, you can use a knife and fork to fold and cut them. Softer foods can be placed on the flat surface of a fork and sorted out with a knife.

The way the knife and fork are placed during a break. If you want to put down your cutlery and take a break halfway through eating, place it in the center of the plate in a figure-eight shape.

If the knife and fork protrude to the outside of the plate, it is not safe and does not look good. Waving a knife and fork while talking is a faux pas.

After the meal, put the knife and fork in the direction of four o'clock can be a lot of tableware on the western table, eat each thing to use specific tableware, take the table knife as an example, eat Western food at least three knives, respectively used to cut cutlets, vegetables and cut bread, can not figure out the specific use of each tableware is prone to embarrassing situation, tableware is placed in a mess, it is easy to make the tableware in the hand fall to the ground.

The two of them left the Taiping Pavilion restaurant, Zhao Weidong sent Ye Xiaofang to No. 12 Robinson Road, watched her enter the gate, the car turned around and went back to her villa, as soon as she heard the horn of the car, Ye Qianru was stopped by her without waiting for the housekeeper to walk out of the villa,

She jumped up and ran to open the door for Zhao Weidong, and after the car drove in, she immediately closed the door and ran to the garage to find Zhao Weidong, he had already parked the car and walked outside the garage, Ye Qianru ran up and coquettishly said:

"Brother, why don't you go home for dinner at night?"

"Today, your sister Xiaofang went to the company to look for me, and when it was time to eat, the family did not prepare, so she came back after eating outside."

"Brother, you're so partial, you don't ask me to go to eat out."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you to do it later."

"Well, that's pretty much it. Brother, I want you to carry me in. ”

Regardless of whether Zhao Weidong agreed or not, he ran to Zhao Weidong's back and said, "Brother, squat down." Zhao Weidong likes Ye Qianru very much, basically responds to requests, of course her little request is not a problem, he squatted down, Ye Qianru immediately fell on his back, put her hands around his neck, and leaned her head crookedly on Zhao Weidong's shoulder.

Zhao Weidong stretched out his hand to hold her legs, stood up and walked towards the villa, Ye Qianru was in such close contact with him for the first time, the two stiff little steamed buns that had just developed on his chest were tightly attached to his back, the developing chest was particularly sensitive, and when he walked, Ye Qianru felt that the small steamed bun with a firm chest was being rubbed by him, and an indescribable feeling was surging in his heart, a feeling that he had never experienced.

As he continued to walk, constantly shaking, giving Ruru a stronger stimulation, she felt her whole body weak, walked to the sofa in the living room of the villa, Zhao Weidong put her down, she sat down on the sofa, the person has not yet come out of the feeling just now, looking at her blurred eyes, Zhao Weidong dotingly touched Ye Qianru's delicate little face and asked:

"Qianru, what are you thinking, so fascinated?"

"No... Didn't think about anything. Ye Qianru said a little absent-mindedly.

"Okay, you watch TV well, brother go take a shower first."
