Chapter 31 Not the Renminbi, but the U.S. Dollar

"It's fine."

I turned my head and smiled at Zhou Xiaoxiao.

"Li Yang, what do you think of me?"

I couldn't help but smile when I saw Zhou Xiaoxiao looking at me with a smile. This little teacher in his twenties is about the same as a big child, and he is really naughty.

"You're naughty." I'll be honest.

"And then?" The other man lifted his cheeks and looked at me with big eyes.

"Not quite like that."

"Not quite like that? Why? ”

"Although you are my son's teacher, I am much older than you, what's the matter, you have to call me Brother Sheng or something. But, you have a Li Yang, isn't it a little unlikely. ”

I'm joking. Although the other party is young, after all, he is his son's teacher, I shouldn't have said this, but, the first time I saw her during the day, she called me Li Yang, tonight from picking up her son to the present, she once again took a bite of Li Yang, called it very naturally, like an old friend for many years, I really couldn't help it.

"Humph!"

Zhou Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and glanced at me, "You are only a few years older than me!" ”

She looked so cute, and when I joked again, my son ran in from outside, clapping his little hands, "Delicious food, come!" ”

Soon, four dishes came up, colorful and colorful, except for one steak, the other three dishes did not know what to name.

Asked Zhou Xiaoxiao, she glanced at me and said, you don't understand, anyway, I love to eat these, you don't like to eat, you can't help it.

I was speechless. I really didn't expect such a naughty teacher to come to the kindergarten. Actually, I have no interest in what these dishes are called, just casually asked, what I care about is the price of the dish, I only have 900 yuan on my bank card, if this meal is beyond my capacity, if I can't afford it, if I can't pay for the meal, it will be too embarrassing.

However, I pondered that in addition to the value of the steak, the other three dishes should not be expensive, it seems that the quantity is not large, the shape is strange, and a dish lasts 50 yuan.

Who knows, before the dish is finished, I was about to greet me to eat, when the waiter came in with a large plate in both hands, and it was steaming inside, and I was surprised when I saw it.

On the plate turned out to be a roast leg of lamb.

"Isn't it a Western restaurant? How so? ”

Seeing my surprise, Zhou Xiaoxiao smiled proudly, "Can't there be a leg of mutton in a Western restaurant?" With that, she glanced at the waiter, who nodded knowingly.

When I asked again, Zhou Xiaoxiao and his son slapped their chins, clapped their hands and said, "Let's eat!" ”

After speaking, he picked up a fork to help his son pick up vegetables. I didn't ask anymore and ate as I ate.

After coming back from Wujiang, I haven't settled down to eat a full meal, today I met Tian Liang on the road and had a good conversation, maybe I was really hungry, or because roast lamb leg is my favorite, I opened my stomach and ate a big meal.

Zhou Xiaoxiao mainly takes care of her son to eat, she doesn't seem to eat much, which is a little strange, she took the initiative to ask me to have a treat, and she specially brought me and my son to this Western restaurant, she should eat with great interest.

When she was about to finish eating, Zhou Xiaoxiao got up and said to go to the bathroom, I was worried that she would go to the checkout, smiled a little, and said, "You won't pay for it, say I'll invite you." ”

Zhou Xiaoxiao turned around and glanced at me, "You think beautifully!" ”

Soon, she was back. After eating, I asked my son and Zhou Xiaoxiao to wait, and I went to pay. Came to the front desk, I was greeted by a blue-eyed foreign man, I can still come a few words in English, I asked how much in English, the other party smiled at me, stretched out three fingers, I breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that three hundred yuan, within my budget.

After paying, Zhou Xiaoxiao led her son out of the private room, I asked Zhou Xiaoxiao how to go home, she said you don't have to worry about it, I will call it back by myself, home is very close. I said then I won't care about you, it's not early, my son is going to sleep.

After seeing Zhou Xiaoxiao leave, I was just about to take my son to turn around and leave, when I accidentally saw an oval sign hanging outside this Western-style restaurant, with a line of English written on it, and a small line of Chinese characters in parentheses - Beihai External Reception.

I was taken aback, no wonder there were not many people in the restaurant, and all the people who came in and out were blue-eyed and yellow-haired foreigners.

Although I am not very familiar with the words "Beihai foreign reception", I intuitively know that this place is not for ordinary people to come, not to mention foreigners, they should all be foreigners with status and status.

Zhou Xiaoxiao actually brought me and my son to this kind of place.

Moreover, it seems that Zhou Xiaoxiao is no stranger to this place, definitely not the first time to come, and should be a frequent visitor here.

Zhou Xiaoxiao - what kind of person is it!

I suddenly felt that something was wrong, I didn't know anything about Western food, but I knew that the price of that roast leg of lamb should not be cheap, in terms of taste and exquisite processing, it was indispensable for 100 yuan. The meal cost a total of 300 yuan, and there is still 200 yuan left after removing the roast leg of lamb. For the other four dishes, can you get it for 200 yuan?

Unlikely.

I walked to the front desk and politely asked the blue-eyed foreigner if I could type out the menu for me to see.

The other party didn't think much about it, and handed it to me according to my request, I first looked at the total amount of consumption, and when I saw it, I was dumbfounded. It was written in RMB: 3,300 yuan.

Looking at the details again, there was no roast leg of lamb. The prices of the four dishes on the menu are marked in RMB: Marseille fish soup 1,000 yuan, foie gras steak 800 yuan, Paris lobster 1,200 yuan, and steak 300 yuan.

"Is there any mistake," I asked the other party in English that I was not very proficient in, "I read before serving, the order menu clearly wrote 100 or 200 numbers, no matter how expensive the four dishes are, it is only five or six hundred, how can it come up with 3,300 yuan?" ”

The other party's sentence left me speechless, "Sir, the unit behind the number is not RMB, but US dollars." ”

I was stunned for a few seconds, and then it dawned on me. Zhou Xiaoxiao had already settled the account when she went to the bathroom in the middle, and she deliberately left a fraction of 300 yuan in order to save face.

There is no roast leg of lamb in this Western restaurant, it should be Zhou Xiaoxiao arranged for the waiter to go out to buy or order takeout in advance.

Why did she order just a roast leg of lamb?

I like to eat roast lamb shank the most, and I often tell my son that roast lamb shank tastes the most beautiful, could it be that my son told Zhou Xiaoxiao?

It turned out that Zhou Xiaoxiao stubbornly asked me to invite her to dinner, but she had already arranged it. Her real purpose was to invite me, not me to invite her.

Why did she do that?

"Pengpeng," I called my son to me, "how long has the little teacher been in your class?" ”

"Dad, it's been two weeks."

"Did she say anything to you?"

"She said I danced great."

"Dad asked, not this. What does Daddy mean... Did the little teacher tell you about Dad? ”
