Chapter 100: Here Again?
85_85563 I tasted them one by one, and then took a few sips of tea, and the various flavors reached a perfect balance on the taste buds.
The lotus leaf, meat, tempeh, sauce, milky, sweet, salty and fragrant tea in the small cage, together with the fragrance of tea, make the guests' faces unconsciously flood with happy smiles.
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper!" The guy trotted away, pulled Yao Xili's sleeve and dragged it in, "Go over and take a look, there are guests at the table who have eaten three cages of phoenix feet, three cages of pork ribs, three cages of rice rolls, and two plates of chicken cakes, and I want to serve them to him again." β
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper!" Another guy ran out, "A customer asked if you could pack it?" He wants to buy two cages of each and take them home! β
Yao Xili and Hua Jingtian laughed happily, and Xia Qingyun couldn't bear to say: "You told the guests that they just opened today, and there are not many preparations, please understand, a guest is limited to two cages of each kind, and those that can't be eaten can be packed." β
"Also, if you're done eating, you'll get a crème brûlée, and remember to put it upside down on a plate before serving!"
As soon as the two of them left, another guy came and grabbed Yao Xili's sleeve.
"What's going on this time?"
"Shopkeeper, a guest asked us if we have a VIP card, how much silver can I buy, and how much discount?"
Xia Qingyun pursed her lips, she had already prepared, it was the same style as Yuzhou Qingyunxuan's VIP card, the same price, and common to both stores!
Yao Xili happily took his buddy to the counter to get the sign, and Hua Sedum smiled, happy to see his eyebrows.
That's a real twist. People are tired of eating Daoxiangchun's dim sum, and when they change their tastes at first glance, not only no one gives opinions, but they all eat them with relish and can't stop.
But. Although the guests in the teahouse were satisfied, from the outside, Qingyunxuan was still much more deserted compared to Tayunlou.
The guests who came to the cloud building to congratulate were not only dressed luxuriously, but also carried gift boxes in their hands.
The shopkeeper of the Tayun Building stood at the door, deliberately elongating the tone. Singing the name loudly.
"The county king has arrived with his family. Inside please! β
"Lord Zhang and his wife are here, please upstairs!"
"Governor Gu of Zhili has arrived, please take a seat!"
In a moment. Thirty or forty officials and their wives came from Hejian and from the capital.
When these people heard that Aunt Jiu had opened a restaurant, they hurriedly ran to stammer, just to let her blow the pillow wind in the ear of Prime Minister Nangong Xi for herself. Say two good words.
At present, Nangong Xi is a popular person next to the prince, and the emperor ignores the government while he is sick. The crown prince covers the sky with one hand, and once he ascends the throne in the future, Nangong Xi will be the founding patriarch of this dynasty, under one person. More than 10,000 people! When I want to tie up, I'm afraid I can't find the door, so I don't take advantage of this good opportunity to give gifts. Drill camp of drill camp.
These people inquired about it early and knew that Yu Yao was Aunt Jiu's personal maid. Therefore, when I saw her, I was also polite, and I didn't seem to treat ordinary people.
Some of the officials in Hejian County even saluted Yu Yao, which made her feel that she was superior, and her chin was almost raised to the sky!
From time to time, she glanced at the other side with contempt, Qingyunxuan's guests were sparse, all of them were market businessmen, and there was not even a single one who could get on the stage, just with this little connection, she still wanted to compete with Tayunlou, it was a big joke!
In a private room facing the street on the third floor, Aunt Jiu and Huang stood by the window and looked down, only to see an endless stream of guests who came to the restaurant to congratulate them, and carriages and sedan chairs occupied half of the street!
Aunt Nine sat back in the middle of the chair, took out a small mirror with a double lid of rose gold and diamonds, opened it and straightened her sideburns, stroked her eyebrows, pursed her red lips, and posed as a noblewoman.
"Madame Huangfu, what do you have to worry about now. Just looking at the opening situation, let's not say that we have to earn tens of thousands of taels of silver every month. Sooner or later, Qingyunxuan on the opposite side will have to be changed to us. β
Huang walked over flatteringly, poured her a glass of fruit wine, and said with a smile: "It's all borrowed from my aunt's light!" If I get a teahouse, I only need one percent of the dividend, and the rest should be added to my aunt. β
"Yo, is there any money that has been pushed out?" Aunt Nine glanced at her, didn't touch the glass of wine, and said lazily, "Don't think about letting me do something for you, right?" Between us sisters, if you have something to say, just say it. β
"My aunt is really clear-minded, more accurate than the gods!"
Huang diligently picked up the cup, praised it on his lips, but secretly scolded in his heart: "I, which one is a sister with you!" is just a concubine and aunt, and when she married the old thing of Nangong Xi, she thought that she had ascended to the sky in one step! It's just a dog I paid for! β
Thinking about it, she still humbly lowered her cup and clinked glasses with Aunt Nine.
"Don't hide it from my aunt, my son is going east, this year is going to participate in the palace examination, if you win, you will have to rely on your aunt in front of the prime minister in the future, if you can get an official and a half-job, you will not forget your aunt's great kindness in the future!"
"Well said!" Aunt Nine drank it all, and she was extremely proud. What's so great about the big house? Your Huangfu wife is also a dignified house, and you must not whisper in front of my aunt.
On weekdays, if you don't treat our concubines and aunts as human beings, I will trample you under my feet, and let you all beg me and suck me!
On the surface, the two of them talked and laughed and pushed the cup to change the lamp, but in fact, they had their own hearts and minds, all in silence. Where is this normal business cooperation, it is just a temporary collusion for the sake of their respective interests!
Seeing that the guests had almost arrived, Yu Yao asked for a gift list from the shopkeeper, and took it to the private room on the third floor to ask Aunt Nine to take a look.
"Master," Yu Yao turned sideways and took out a stack of silver tickets, "This is given to you by Mrs. Zhixian, Mrs. County, and Mrs. Principal Bookkeeper, total" She whispered the number in Aunt Jiu's ear.
"They're kind of eye-catching." Aunt Nine didn't hide it, and slapped the silver ticket on the table. Huang only glanced at it, and it could be seen from the color and pattern of the silver ticket that it was all 10,000 taels of large tickets.
Aunt Nine doesn't shy away from her when she receives gifts, she obviously doesn't treat her as an outsider, but in fact, there is another layer of meaning, that is, she doesn't take you in her eyes at all, so there is no need to avoid it at all!
"Mrs. Huangfu, these gifts are also set according to us, I will be seven and you three." Aunt Nine slowly selected a few silver tickets and pushed them in front of the Huang family.
"Miss Yuyao, hurry up and put it away for your aunt!" Huang pretended to be flattered, "This is all their filial piety to their aunt, and the bonus of the restaurant is two different things, I can't ask for it!" β
Without Aunt Jiu's instructions, Yu Yao grabbed the silver ticket back, stacked it with a few on the table, and put it into the brocade box that the aunt was carrying.
Suddenly, there were several gongs outside the restaurant, and there was a noise of people on the street.
Yu Yao pushed open the window and looked out, and the sedan chair parked downstairs was bombarded, and she walked to the other end of the street.
Her pretty face tensed, and she was about to ask the shopkeeper downstairs, when she saw two extraordinarily luxurious carriages slowly driving into the entrance of Jinbao Street, followed by two pairs of mighty and neat guards. Could it be that the capital is a distinguished guest again? (To be continued).
