Chapter Twenty-Eight: Double Happiness Comes to the Door
Jingzhou City is very lively today, and the area around the Yuanhang store is already crowded. Above the main entrance of the store, a large plaque is hung 'One of the best in the world'. On both sides of the main entrance stood two rows of girls dressed in cheongsams of various colors, each holding a small flower basket in their hands. Yuanhang and Tang Yuan are wearing Tang costumes to greet guests.
"What kind of clothes are they wearing? How can it be so beautiful. ”
"Yes, I've never seen it, maybe it's made by their clothing store, it's really beautiful."
The people gathered around, looking at the colorful cheongsams and discussing.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way. Lord Zhishu arrived. ”
The crowd dodged a road, and Yan Song, the Lord of Zhizhou, walked in, followed by many civil and military generals. The voyage hurried up to greet him and salute.
"It's an honor for the adults to come in person." Yuanhang said with a smile on his face.
"Haha, Ye Gongzi invited, and the official came to cheer from now on." Yan Song smiled, turned around and introduced Yuanhang: "This is Lord Du Zhiyuan, the Jingzhou garrison. ”
It turned out that he was the garrison. Yuan Hang looked at the past, about forty years old, with a Chinese face, dark skin, and a strong physique, and at first glance he was a person who practiced martial arts.
"Xiaomin Ye Yuanhang has seen Master Du." Yuanhang stepped forward and saluted.
"Oh? You are Ye Yuanhang. "Du Zhiyuan had already learned from his subordinates that the person who beat his son was called Ye Yuanhang, but he never thought that he would meet him here.
When Yuanhang saw Du Zhiyuan say this, he suddenly thought that he had reported his name at that time, and he must have been heard by those followers. And the garrison should know about it.
"Yes, Xiaomin is Ye Yuanhang. Yesterday, there was a misunderstanding with your son, and Xiaomin went to apologize for his sins from now on. Yuanhang hurriedly apologized.
"Hehe, it's okay, you young people's affairs, just move around more in the future." Although Du Zhiyuan has some hatred, he can only pretend to be generous on the occasion now.
Yan Song introduced the officials behind him one by one for Yuanhang, and Yuanhang ordered the maids to send flower baskets to the officials. looked at the women with good faces, plump bodies, bulging breasts, and peculiar and gorgeous clothes. Not only were the people stunned, but all the officials also craned their necks and watched intently. Yuanhang invited all the officials into the restaurant and instructed the three brothers of the Chen family to start grilling fish. Sitting around the table, the guy brought a steaming thing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is called hot pot, and it was developed by Xiaomin." Yuanhang got up and put the mutton into the pot and said, "Wait a while, when the soup in the pot boils, you can take out the meat, and then dip it in this seasoning and you can eat it." ”
Everyone was curious about this thing, and when they heard that it was developed by Yuanhang himself, they couldn't help but take a look at Yuanhang.
Sure enough, everyone praised the mutton after eating it. After a while, the guy brought the grilled fish again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, try this again, it is also the main dish of this restaurant, Zhuge grilled fish." The voyage divides the grilled fish and divides it among each person.
Everyone has only eaten steamed and fried meals. When have you eaten grilled, shabu-shabu. I think it's very fresh and delicious. They all ate with round stomachs and burped.
"Ye Gongzi is really a talent, this official has eaten countless delicacies, but none of them are compared to this." Yan Song praised sincerely this time.
All the officials also casually agreed.
"Thank you, if you feel good, please take care of it in the future, and come to the show often." Yuanhang got up and saluted everyone.
"Hehe, you all heard it, you will give Ye Gongzi a cheer in the future." Yan Song said to everyone with a smile.
"Definitely, definitely." When the officials saw Lord Zhizhou's words, they didn't know what the identity of this Ye Gongzi was, so they hurriedly echoed.
After a full meal and wine, everyone got up and said goodbye one by one after chatting again. Yuanhang personally sent everyone to the door.
In the living room of the garrison mansion, Yan Song and Du Zhiyuan sat on chairs and drank tea.
"Lord Yan, I don't know what the relationship between this Ye Yuanhang and you is?" Du Zhiyuan raised his eyes and looked at Yan Song and asked.
"It doesn't matter, it's just that I rent my shop and I'll go and have a show." Yan Song took a sip of tea and replied slowly.
"Oh, I see. Yesterday in the Forgotten Dust Temple, he asked his subordinates to beat the dog and injured him, and now he is still lying on the bed. Du Zhiyuan said hatefully.
"What? There will be such a thing. Yan Song put down the cup and asked, "How did he have a grudge with your son?" ”
"I haven't asked for details yet, but since I dare to hit the dog, I won't look at it." Du Zhiyuan said.
"Master Du, although this person has nothing to do with me, it seems to have something to do with the court." Yan Song leaned his head over and said, "He has the waist card of the 'right man', so Master Du needs to think twice about doing things." ”
"Oh? How did he have this waist card? Du Zhiyuan asked with some disbelief.
"When he came to me that day, he said that an old man gave it to him and asked him to ask me for help with the waist card. I haven't figured this out yet, so I can only be careful. Yan Song looked at Du Zhiyuan and replied.
"Can the dog only endure it?" Du Zhiyuan clenched his hand into a fist and smashed it on the table.
"Master Du, Ye Yuanhang's restaurant is really good, I'm afraid that I will go to some local ruffians every few days to make trouble, which will really delay business." Yan Song looked at Du Zhiyuan and smiled.
"That's right! Since he has a waist card and can't use officers and soldiers, he can go ahead as a ruffian. Haha, Lord Yan is really tall! Du Zhiyuan laughed.
"Eh, I didn't say anything, I was just worried about him." After Yan Song finished speaking, he got up and hugged his fists and said, "I'm really tired, so I won't bother Master Du and say goodbye." ”
Du Zhiyuan also got up and said: "In this case, I won't leave Lord Yan, and I will go to the house to disturb me another day." ”
On East Street, the Yuanhang Restaurant is still overcrowded. The three brothers of the Chen family were grilling fish with ovens on both sides of the door, and the aroma of the hot pot upstairs was also far away. From the opening to the evening, the guests were uninterrupted, and the Chen family was so tired that they couldn't stand anymore. The voyage was just outside the door to greet the guests, and his legs were already weak.
"Brother Ye." A crisp voice came.
Yuanhang turned around, and before he could see a figure clearly, he plunged into his arms.
"Liqiu? Ha, it's you who came, Liqiu. After Yuanhang saw it clearly, he hurriedly hugged Liqiu.
"Butler, I'm here too." Tang Ling ran over and stood on the side, smiling.
"Why are you here, all right?" Yuanhang asked after separating from Qiu.
Liqiu's face was already full of tears, and he stretched out his hand to wipe it and said, "We have been in Jingzhou for more than ten days, and we have not been able to find you." Just now Tang Ling heard that a new restaurant was opening, I thought maybe it was you, so I hurriedly pulled him to take a look, and sure enough, it was you. ”
"Good, good. Come inside and talk. Yuanhang took Liqiu's hand and walked towards the house. Liqiu shyly withdrew his little hand back, completely forgetting that he had just taken the initiative to give him a hug.
"Sister Liqiu." The three brothers of the Chen family greeted Li Qiu with a smile.
"Well, do a good job, I'll come to see you later." Liqiu smiled at the three brothers.
"Liqiu, where is your father? Are you all right? Yuanhang pulled a chair for Liqiu.
"It's all right, after I got home after listening to you, I packed my bags with my father and mother, and left home the next morning and ran to Luzhou. I was going to go to Jingzhou with you, but when I walked out of the village, there was an earthquake. After that, we chased all the way, but the road was difficult to walk, and we didn't have a carriage, so we stopped and stopped all the way to Jingzhou ten days ago. After Liqiu finished speaking, his eyes turned red again, and he finally said all the grievances.
"Okay, it's okay now, I've already bought a house, I'll pick up your father and mother in a while, and go back to live in the house." Yuanhang is happy to see the autumn equinox, and this girl doesn't have to worry about herself when she comes to the restaurant.
"Where's Sister Qinghe?" Liqiu asked when he didn't see Qinghe.
"She's in the house, I'll see you when I get back." Yuanhang laughed.
"Why didn't she come to help when it opened today? It must be Brother Ye, you are spoiled, afraid that she will be tired. Liqiu asked with a smile.
"It's a long story, I met a scoundrel yesterday, it is said that he is the son of the garrison, and when he saw the beauty of Qinghe, he became ill-intentioned and was beaten by me. I was afraid that he would find someone to make trouble today, so I didn't call Qinghe over. Yuanhang explained.
"How can this be reasonable, Brother Ye played well, if you don't need to make a move again, watch Aunt Ben clean him up." After Liqiu finished speaking, he stood up with his hands on his hips and returned to his true nature.
Yuanhang smiled when he saw Liqiu's appearance. "Liqiu, go and pick up your father and mother, and we will go back to the house after the guests disperse."
"Well, I'll pick it up." Liqiu answered the call and turned around and ran out.
Back in the house, Yuanhang instructed his subordinates to prepare a table of wine and food for Liqiu's family.
"Brother Ye, can I go to the restaurant tomorrow?" Liqiu hurriedly asked.
"Okay, I'll have a lot easier if you go." Yuanhang nodded with a smile.
"Ye Gongzi, let's go too, we can help you clean the dishes." Father Chen and his wife felt a little embarrassed to eat and live in Ye Mansion.
"You don't need to be the second elder, just stay in the mansion. In my spare time, I go to the city for a stroll. ”
"That's embarrassing." Daddy Chen laughed dryly.
"Father Chen, if it weren't for your old man, I would have sunk in the river. So why are you staying with me? Yuanhang looked at Daddy Chen and said.
"Yes, man. You can accompany me, and let them do the things outside. Tang Yuanwai raised his glass and said, "Come, everyone raise a glass, double happiness is coming today." One is that our new store is prosperous, and the other is that we meet again and drink. ”
Immediately, there was a burst of laughter and laughter in the small courtyard.
