Chapter 95: It's embarrassing
After eating and drinking, Emperor Chengde wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, stood up, and waved his big hand: "Eat enough, let's go when we are full." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qingyun had already taken the lead in opening the door of the box and took the lead in taking the lead, Emperor Chengde followed, and Zhou Tingyu, Shu Hongxuan and others also went downstairs.
At this time, there were still many customers on the first floor, and the shopkeeper Yan was making an abacus behind the counter, crackling and counting money, collecting money, busy but not chaotic.
Seeing Emperor Chengde and his entourage going downstairs, the shopkeeper Yan put down the abacus, walked out of the counter, arched his hand, and asked, "This lord, can the food suit your taste?" ”
Emperor Chengde nodded approvingly: "Not bad, not bad, especially the beads in the belly, the taste is excellent." ”
Shopkeeper Yan smiled even deeper, "You eat well, welcome to come to our Yue Chonglou next time." ”
Emperor Chengde smiled heartily: "It's easy to say, how much is the shopkeeper?" ”
Shopkeeper Yan smiled slightly: "Guest officer, there are Young Master Hongxuan and Miss Hongxuan, and the fee is free." ”
Emperor Chengde's face, which was still smiling, turned into a cold eyebrow, and the folding fan in his hand slapped on the counter with a "snap": "What do you mean?" Are you saying that I eat overlord meals, sir? Just a meal, I'm afraid that I can't afford to pay? ”
Zhou Tingyu: "...... "Father, which one are you singing?"
Shu Yanhua: "Your Majesty, ......, it's really ...... Peculiar people.
Shu Hongxuan: "......" Your Majesty wants to play the role of a faint monarch and a courtier, so he can only sacrifice his life to accompany him.
He hasn't forgotten what the purpose of leaving the palace is, isn't it just the feeling that His Majesty wants to pretend to be a faint king? However, throughout the historical records, I have not seen a faint monarch who is in a hurry to give money.
Cai Sande: "......", hehe, I have long been used to all this.
Shu Hongxuan secretly made a gesture to the shopkeeper Yan in a place that others couldn't see, and although the shopkeeper Yan, who had been observing Young Master Hongxuan with his spare eyes, was puzzled, he still acted according to Young Master Hongxuan's instructions.
The shopkeeper Yan restrained his smile slightly, took out the small abacus he carried with him, crackled, and after a while, he raised his head and said: "Guest officer, a total of five hundred and seventy-eight taels and six coins, I wiped your spare weight, a total of five hundred and seventy taels, may I ask whether to pay cash or silver tickets?" ”
Emperor Chengde was really a little stunned, looked around, and looked at the faces of the guests on the first floor who were also a little stunned, and suddenly felt that the shopkeeper must have miscalculated the money, and the folding fan slapped on the counter with a "snap".
"Did you miscalculate the money or did you cheat the customer? I ate a few hundred taels in one meal, did I eat dragon liver or phoenix gall? ”
The shopkeeper Yan saw that not only the first floor, but even the people in the box on the second floor pushed open the window and began to watch the excitement when they heard the voice, and now the shopkeeper Yan was anxious, he would never let people feel that Yue Chonglou was a big bully.
Shopkeeper Yan's face was extremely serious, "Guest officer, our Yue Chonglou has always had a fair price, and we won't do such a deceptive thing." I'll do the math for you now, but I'm not wrong about the money. ”
"You said that the taste is excellent" in the belly of the pearl ", we use milk, Zhen rice carefully fed the little pigeon as the bottom, each of them have to be fed to two months before it can be used to cook, itself tastes good, not to mention stuffed in the belly of the pigeon, three taels of silver a pound of pearl glutinous rice, seven taels of abalone mushrooms, five taels of cloud fungus, as well as abalone grains, fresh shellfish, shrimp and so on more than a dozen kinds of tender ingredients, each, our price is twenty taels. You asked for a total of twelve, and the total is two hundred and forty taels. ”
"Your box, three tables, a total of thirty-one dishes ordered, including abalone wing soup, fairy duck, crayfish, etc. are more than a dozen or two dishes, these dishes are often familiar to the guest officers who eat in our Yue Chonglou, and I have not counted your money too much, and I also wiped the change."
After the shopkeeper Yan's words, it was as if he had pressed a switch, and the other cousins began to echo him.
"That's right, Yue Chonglou has always had a fair price, so many silver taels for a dish, it must be worth the price with materials and workmanship, anyway, I feel excellent when I eat it."
"Yan shopkeeper has never made a mistake in settling accounts, every time I will give me change, I have to come to Yue Chonglou to taste his dishes a few times a month, it has been more than ten years, but I have never seen a big shopkeeper bully."
The guests spoke out to help, and some people diverted their attention, "Lao Yan, you are not kind enough, why don't you say that there is a 'pearl in the belly' today?" Now there are still five, give me five! ”
"Hey, Lao Yan, I also want three here!"
"Lao Yan, I've known you for so long, it's not too much for me to give ten, right?"
The world is changing too fast, Emperor Chengde was dumbfounded, coughed lightly, and secretly asked Shu Hongxuan: "Rongjing, is the price of this Yue Chonglou really so expensive?" ”
Shu Hongxuan wanted to laugh but didn't dare, and he had to explain to Emperor Chengde the owner behind Yue Chonglou: "Master, Yue Chonglou was opened by my grandfather's family, and it has always been favored by the magnates in Shangjing, and the people who come here to eat are rich. ”
Emperor Chengde glared at Shu Hongxuan fiercely: "Why don't you say that Yue Chonglou was opened by your grandfather's family?" ”
Knowing that he is not here to faint the majesty of the king, he originally wanted the shopkeeper to settle the accounts, and then scolded, did not give a single child, swaggered away, if the shopkeeper dared to send someone to chase, it would be better, he concealed his identity by his side, and there were more than a dozen guards who followed, and there were enough secret guards, so it was more fun to fight.
Faint king, eating overlord meals and instructing dogs to fight is not a common thing.
It's good now, but now I can't get it up, and it's embarrassing.
Zhou Tingyu was not afraid of death, and Emperor Chengde glared at his son viciously, with a good-looking expression when he returned to the palace, Zhou Tingyu "brushed" the folding fan to cover his face, and his shaking shoulders all said that he was snickering.
Shu Yanhua turned her face sideways, didn't dare to look directly at Emperor Chengde, grabbed the handkerchief with both hands, gritted her teeth, didn't dare to move the slightest, and tried her best to suppress her smile.
It turns out that this is Your Majesty today, what a ...... Why don't you feel afraid of him at all? Shu Yanhua thought secretly in her heart.
Shu Hongxuan whispered softly in Emperor Chengde's ear: "Master, Rong Jing has a way to make Shopkeeper Yan grateful to you, and you can also get free of food money......
Emperor Chengde stopped Shu Hongxuan's unfinished words: "The master can still afford the money for a meal, but you must find a way to round this face." ”
Now the attention of these cousins is attracted by the "beads in the belly", but they will eventually return their attention to the matter itself, if it is misunderstood that he can't afford to eat a meal, and wants to use it to repay the debt, where to put his face?
Emperor Chengde had forgotten that he was originally going to repay his debts and wanted to eat the overlord meal.
Shu Hongxuan coughed lightly, took a few steps forward, and said to the shopkeeper Yan: "Shopkeeper Yan, this old man came to Beijing for the first time, he didn't mean it, he was actually kind, I said that I wanted to pick him up and wash the dust, I never thought that he, as an elder, would not let the younger generation break the bank, so he would ask for payment, he doesn't know my relationship with you, I hope you don't misunderstand." ”
When Shu Hongxuan's words came out, some frequent guests recognized who he was, and said loudly: "It turned out to be the grandson of the owner, no wonder, there is indeed no need to pay, so this old man is also very kind." ”
At this moment, the other people changed again, "Ouch, this old man loves his elders so much." ”
"I don't think I'm familiar with Shangjing, and it's the first time I've come to Yue Chonglou."
Emperor Chengde was praised and smiled, and the smile on his face never broke.
Shu Hongxuan said again: "Shopkeeper Yan, this master's calligraphy and ink are praised even by my teacher, why don't you ask him to give him a piece of calligraphy and ink, and this misunderstanding will become a good story." ”
Emperor Chengde didn't wait for the shopkeeper to answer, and tapped the palm with the folding fan: "This idea is good, come here, prepare pen and ink." ”
Shu Hongxuan gave the shopkeeper Yan a look, and the shopkeeper Yan immediately asked people to take out the best rice paper and pen and ink from the account room, and ordered Xiao Er to bring a clean table, arrange everything, and stretch out his hand to ask.
Shu Hongxuan personally polished the ink, and Emperor Chengde swiped his pen and wrote down the big characters "The world is delicious and has an endless aftertaste", and at the end he took out his own private seal and stamped it on it.
Shu Hongxuan pressed the white paper with a paperweight, let the ink dry naturally, and said to the shopkeeper Yan with a smile: "The shopkeeper Yan should treasure it well, this is a thousand words." ”
The fingers made a gesture lightly, and the shopkeeper Yan was heartbroken, and decided not to do anything today, he must keep this pair of words and ink, and send it to the owner when it is dry.
Shu Hongxuan saw that Shopkeeper Yan understood what he meant, and smiled, "We still have something to do, take a step forward and leave." ”
Shu Hongxuan smiled at Emperor Chengde and said, "Uncle, didn't you say that you want to know the prosperity of Shangjing?" Rongjing will take you there. ”
Emperor Chengde laughed, very satisfied that this matter was solved in this way, and before leaving, Cai Sande paid for the meal, and left Yue Chonglou first, Shu Hongxuan followed, Shu Yanhua left last, and said in an extremely low voice beside the shopkeeper Yan: "But if you want to take it well, it was written by a nobleman." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly followed Zhou Tingyu's side and left Yue Chonglou.
Fortunately, there was no one in Yue Chonglou who knew Emperor Chengde, otherwise, it would never be as calm as this. (To be continued.) )
