Cheng Huai ordered food, and Tong Yan looked around at the private room where thousands of guests came.

Unlike the box, which is surrounded by walls, the large window that comes in through the door of the private room and faces the lobby downstairs is blocked by a hazy gauze curtain, so that people downstairs can't see upstairs clearly, while people upstairs can clearly see every move of all the guests downstairs.

The little guy nodded and retreated with the menu, closing the door.

"From here, you can see the storyteller or the singer downstairs." Cheng Huai looked at her curious look, walked to the curtain and looked downstairs and explained.

"Really? Where? Tong Yan also gathered in front of the gauze curtain with great interest.

Cheng Huai laughed, "I haven't come yet, but I'm coming soon." ”

"Is that a storyteller or a songmaker?" Tong Yan asked.

Her favorite thing is to listen to Qingzhi read her a book, and it is more interesting to tell a story, Mr. Storyteller is talented, and he talks about it with a sound and color, which is more interesting than a book, when she was very young, He Laifu took her to listen to it once, and when she left, she was reluctant to cry.

Cheng Huai said, "Single-day storytelling, double-day singing, today should be a double day, no accident, it should be singing." ”

Tong Yan let out a disappointed "ah" and muttered, "Where is there any storytelling in singing." ”

Cheng Huai said with a smile, "It turns out that the county lord likes to listen to stories, it doesn't matter, next time there is a storyteller, we can come again." ”

Next time? And next time? Tong Yan's heart jumped, and she couldn't help but glance at him secretly, and met his smiling and gentle eyes.

Tong Yan quickly closed her eyes, twisted her face, and silently muttered in her heart that coloring is emptiness, emptiness is color, and color is emptiness...... Don't be fooled by beauty!

Cheng Huai's smile deepened more and more, and the pair of black and bright pupils also deepened.

"When will this dish be served?" Tong Yan hurriedly sat back at the table as if she had fled, pretending to be casual and changing the topic.

"It's coming." Cheng Huai didn't want to embarrass her anymore, and he didn't sit in front of her, he looked in a good mood and stood in front of the curtain and replied happily.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, the door rang twice, and Xiao Er walked in with a lacquer case.

Tong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and the temperature on her face dropped.

Most of the dishes were served at once.

The person singing downstairs also came, and Cheng Huai asked her to come and see.

Tong Yan didn't stand up, just turned her head to look into the lobby.

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old lady stood tall and slender, dressed in a half-new and old water-red dress, and walked gracefully to the small platform with a pipa in her arms and sat down.

She was accompanied by an old man in his fifties and sixties, with gray sideburns and coarse cloth, but he was very clean and tidy.

I don't know if it's this little lady's grandfather or daddy.

Tong Yan looked at it with her eyes, but unfortunately it was too far away, and she couldn't see the appearance of the little lady, whether it was as beautiful as her slender figure.

She held her chin and shook her head, "That's what is usually written in the book. She cleared her throat and said, "Ah Gong brought a beautiful little lady to the restaurant to sing, but he happened to meet a rich bully who wanted to rob this beauty, Ah Gong and the little girl cried and grabbed the ground, and the guests of the restaurant talked about it, but no one dared to help. ”

Tong Yan's voice was pleasant, crisp and tactful, Cheng Huai sat in front of her and listened to her with interest.

was talking energetically, but she stopped abruptly, picked up the teacup and moistened her throat, and suddenly asked Cheng Huai, "What do you guess the ending is?" ”

He looked very serious and thought for a while, and replied, "Could it be that a beautiful woman promises to each other?" And then everyone rejoices? ”

Tong Yan couldn't help laughing, her eyes lit up and said, "Isn't it too old-fashioned, have you ever heard such a book?" ”

"I haven't read the book, but you'll find out later." He said mysteriously.

You'll find out later? Could it be that Cheng Huai will still be unpredictable? Can this book be performed in front of her eyes today?

Cheng Huai gave her a chicken with chopsticks, "You try this Magu stewed chicken, it's delicious." ”

The chicken seems to be very tender, Tong Yan thanked her, put it in her mouth and tasted it, it is indeed very tender and fresh, and after swallowing it, the fragrance in the mouth is still endless.

Tong Yan's eyes lit up, nodded again and again, and exclaimed, "It really tastes good, it seems that this restaurant is not in vain." ”

She waved her chopsticks and feasted.

Cheng Huai watched her eat so happily, and moved his chopsticks with a smile.

The number of people in the restaurant gradually increased, and the little lady who sang the song was sometimes tactful and sometimes whispering, and her slender hand was playing with the pipa in her arms, which was as refreshing as a pearl and jade falling to the ground, echoing in this lobby.

The sound is curling, the guests come and go, the aroma fills the room, and there is a soft and intoxicating taste.

A familiar and obscene man, with his head held high, raised his fan, swaggered in, followed by two strong guys.

One of the little guys shouted loudly and loudly, "Little Er, come to an empty table!" ”

This shout revealed a distinctly provocative tone, breaking the harmonious atmosphere, causing everyone in the lobby and private room to look sideways.

Tong Yan and Cheng Huai also paused their chopsticks and looked downstairs.

"Xue Chengcai?" Tong Yan's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Isn't he being taken care of by the Xue family?" How can it come out again? She couldn't say the latter words, Xue Chengcai's mother-in-law was demoted to a concubine, how could he still be in the mood to come out to eat, drink and have fun?

She looked at Cheng Huai with round eyes, which made Cheng Huai's heart feel as if a feather was gently crossed, and she trembled slightly.

"After all, it's also a person, so what can you do to take care of it." Cheng Huai said absent-mindedly.

And so it is.

Tong Yan couldn't look at Cheng Huai anymore, she stared at the movement downstairs without blinking through the gauze curtain.

Cheng Huai smiled slightly and also looked downstairs.

The little guy in the restaurant hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

Xue Gongzi's reputation, I am afraid that everyone in the entire Beijing Division knows, no one knows, especially these businessmen who open shops to welcome customers, when they hear his name, they have a headache, although he is a master who is willing to spend money, but he often likes to put on a show to make trouble, so that everyone is not happy, speaking of which, they would rather not earn this money than see this Xue Gongzi.

I don't know what the little guy whispered to Xue Chengcai, and led him to an empty table in the lobby.

"This Xue Cheng is the one who eats in the lobby?" Tong Yan frowned, looked at him suspiciously, and asked.

Cheng Huai smiled silently.

Tong Yan pouted, and asked again, "Could it be that this Xue Chengcai is the bully in the book?" Are you here for the singers who sing songs? ”
