Section 148 Chapter 141 Clubhouse
Xiao Ruo walked down the steps, came to the three little girls, squatted down, touched the head of the youngest of them, and said: "Sister, please eat delicious food today, you can eat as much as you like, eat as much as you like, and don't need to spend a tael of silver!" ”
The little girl held her little index finger in her mouth and said cautiously, "Really? ”
"Yes!" Xiao Ruo rubbed the girl's hair vigorously and nodded solemnly.
"Mother, this sister said that she wanted to invite Sanya to eat something delicious, can Sanya go?"
The aunt smiled all over her face, urging the three little girls to say, "Thank you Boss Jin yet!" ”
The three little girls said in a milky voice: "Thank you, sister." After speaking, he ran into the Juxia Building.
The aunt smiled at Xiao Ruo embarrassedly, and shouted, "You guys slow down!" He also followed into the Juxia Building.
Seeing that the aunt really brought her family's three little girls into the door, she was just a crowd of onlookers, and suddenly exploded.
"See, Wu Baoshu's family has all gone in, and the three girls from their family! It looks like it's real, why don't we go in too? ”
"Go, why not! You can eat and drink for nothing, and those who don't go are fools! ”
"Then you go first, I'll go home and bring our little girl over!"
"What can your baby eat, it's only three years old."
"Whatever you eat, you can always eat a full meal and save a lot!"
……
Those who fought to get in ran forward; Those who went home to get their children and put money were all vying to get out of the crowd. Suddenly, the door of Ju Xialou, which was already quite atmospheric, was almost squeezed by the crowd.
After the crowd entered, Xiao Ruo looked at the crowd of men outside the door and said, "Although Ju Xia Lou is only open to female guests, on the last day of each month, male guests will be entertained at the same time. Please don't miss it. ”
After speaking, Xiao Ruo instructed the shopkeeper Xu to continue to wait for the late guests here, leaving everyone with a stunning back, and Shi Shiran walked into the door of Juxia Building.
In the Juxia Building, there are now many female guests among them. Dressed in bright and glamorous famous women, aunts and aunts with patched clothes, and some little girls who dare not eat with their hands, Juxialou at this time already includes women from all walks of life in Kyoto.
"Everyone......" Xiao Ruo said loudly while standing on a specially built stage.
"In order to allow everyone to taste all the delicacies of Ju Xia Lou, today's feast in Ju Xia Lou adopts a self-service mode. In order to make it easy for everyone to get a variety of food, the hall has been divided into four areas. The upper left corner is hot stir-frying, the upper right corner is cold cuts, the lower left corner is desserts, and the lower right corner is tea. If you have any questions, please ring the bell on the table and the waiter will come forward to explain. Well, presumably the aroma in this hall has aroused everyone's appetite, so Xiao Ruo won't say much. When the banquet comes to an end, Ju Xia Lou will also bring unexpected prizes to everyone. Leaving a suspense, Xiao Ruo stepped down with a smile and looked around to see if there was anything that needed to be improved.
"Sister Qinghua, it's too ...... for us to eat with such a group of ignorant women and children" The leading woman who came with the women stood beside Jiang Qinghua, looking at the untouchables in tattered clothes with a look of disdain, as well as a few children with clothes and dirty faces.
"Rong Hua, don't talk nonsense!" Jiang Qinghua opened his mouth and scolded. In fact, Jiang Qinghua also felt that Xiao Ruo's move was really biased, women and children like this may not be qualified to serve them even if they are at home, let alone eat at the same table.
Jiang Ronghua, the youngest daughter of the second room of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion, is more favored at home. Because she is the niece of the current Marquis of Weiwu, the daughters of other officials also give her some face.
In the past five years, Xiao Ruo's female relatives who have dealt with them have long been not young, and those who have married have married, those who have entered the palace have entered the palace, and a group of new people have replaced the old ones.
When Xiao Ruo passed by the group of women standing together, she was a little puzzled why they didn't move. Seeing the woman next to Jiang Qinghua with a face full of disdain, Xiao Ruo then understood. Also, the popularity of buffets is because of the concept of equality under the influence of socialism. Here, let the meal still have to be twisted with a veil, and the noble-born famous woman eats with a group of vulgar women in the market who raise their voices, it is indeed that she is not thoughtful. Besides, probably when these young ladies were eating, they were all served by maids, and they never moved their hands!
Xiao Ruo called the waiter next to her and asked her to notify the kitchen immediately and deliver the prepared meals to the Accord upstairs immediately.
Afterwards, Xiao Ruo walked up to Jiang Qinghua, blessed his body, and said apologetically: "Xiao Ruo didn't greet you well today, please forgive me." Upstairs has prepared an Accord for everyone, and everyone can go upstairs to eat with Xiao Ruo. ”
"That's right, how can we dine with that group of people!" Jiang Ronghua pouted and said. Jiang Qinghua's reprimand for her just now already made her a little dissatisfied, and she didn't say anything wrong.
"Yes, it's Xiao Ruo's inconsiderate." As he spoke, Xiao Ruo apologized to Jiang Ronghua again.
"Boss Jin shouldn't be too polite, since the banquet has been prepared upstairs, let's go upstairs." Jiang Qinghua stretched out his hand to help Xiao Ruo, turned to the ladies behind him and said.
Although Jiang Qinghua is not very old, as the only concubine of the Marquis of Weiwu, and now she is the long extinguishment of Lord Shang Shuling, all the ladies and ladies in Kyoto will make her lose face, and naturally everything is the only way to look forward.
The aunts and aunts next to them, seeing that this group of young ladies were all going upstairs, where would they be the slightest dissatisfied. If this group of young ladies were present, they would only feel how awkward and awkward they were, and they wouldn't dare to let go of their bellies to eat! Originally, they belonged to lowly people, and they had never had the opportunity to see such a brightly dressed official lady on weekdays, and now they want to eat with the ladies, but I am afraid that it will cost them their longevity!
After everyone sat down, Jiang Ronghua frowned, looked at Xiao Ruo standing next to him and asked, "Will this Juxia Building be open like this in the future?" ”
"Yes, in the future, the first floor will be used as a feeding area, open to all women." Xiao Ruo replied with a smile.
"Huh?!" Jiang Ronghua looked disgusted and said, "Is it possible, do you want to dine with that group of untouchables in the future?" I don't want it! ”
Xiao Ruo's smile remained unchanged and continued: "If the young lady feels inconvenient, she can naturally dine in the Accord on the second floor. Moreover, after the official opening of Juxia Building, it is natural to charge a certain fee to each visitor. This is also to let everyone spend a small amount of silver to eat more varieties of delicacies in Juxialou. ”
"That's right, those untouchables don't have any money, where can they come to such a place! It's really cheap today, they ......," Jiang Ronghua nodded approvingly.
"Rong Hua, don't talk too much!" Jiang Qinghua looked at Jiang Ronghua who had no scruples at all, and opened his mouth to say it, and he was very displeased. When Jiang Ronghua pouted, lowered his head and stopped talking, Jiang Qinghua said to Xiao Ruo: "What Boss Jin means is that when everyone enters the door, after charging a certain fee, no matter how much they eat, they no longer need to spend any silver taels?" ”
"Yes, that's it." Xiao Ruo nodded.
"Isn't it a loss for Boss Jin to do this? How much silver is Boss Jin going to set for one person? Jiang Ronghua suddenly interjected with interest and asked, completely forgetting that her Qinghua sister had just reprimanded her again.
"Twenty taels of silver for one person."
"What? Twenty taels? Jiang Ronghua exclaimed in disbelief. God knows how expensive the food in this Juxia Building is, if it was in the past, who would dare to enter the door with twenty taels of silver in his pocket?!
"Of course, Ju Xialou's signature dishes such as Luo Ju cod need to be paid separately, after all, the material is fine and expensive. In fact, Xinju Xialou not only has meals, but also specially prepared a place for ladies to enjoy flowers and chat and talk about poetry, where in addition to hot and cold dishes are not allowed to be brought in, tea and pastries can also be enjoyed to your heart's content, and each person only needs to spend five taels of silver. If there is any happy event in any house, you can also entrust Ju Xialou to be fully responsible. When the time comes, only the host and guests need to prepare to arrive, and Juxialou will naturally provide all the services for everyone. ”
The combination of modern new buffet and tea house, if you want to build, is such a club.
