Chapter Twenty-Three: Xiao Yan
Yuchen Daoist paid the entrance fee to the city, and showed his degree, and was let go by the guards and entered the city gate.
This is the east gate of Jinling City, close to the aristocratic district, so as soon as you enter the door, it is an extremely prosperous street, and the street is full of traffic, and there are many suspicious people in Yuchen Road, so I casually found a restaurant with good decoration and entered it.
Now the time is in the afternoon, the cold period of the restaurant's business, there are not many customers, and there are many vacant seats in the restaurant, so that Yuchen Daoist occupies a good position by the window on the second floor.
Xiao Er took a rag and wiped the table for Yuchen Daoren, and asked with an earnest face: "This Daoist, you look a little raw, it should be the first time you come to our store!" ”
"Yes, it's the first time I've come back to Jinling City. By the way, what are your signature dishes? Yuchen Daoist sat down and replied casually.
"Hey, then you really chose the right store for us, our Moon Tower is also well-known in the entire Jinling City. Our specialty is goose paws, stewed elbows with ham, pheasant melon, steamed lamb with milk, chicken skin soup with shrimp balls, steamed duck with wine, chicken pith bamboo shoots, fried quail, .....
I don't know if you don't want to avoid meat, our restaurant's vegetarian food is also widely acclaimed, do you want to try it. Xiao Er wiped the only bit of dust off the table and recommended smartly.
"Poor people don't taboo meat, just put the signature dish you just said on the table, and just bring me a pot of sake by the way." Yuchen Daoist shook his head, and didn't ask the price, the local tyrant ordered.
"Okay, I'll tell the back kitchen to do it, and the Taoist chief please wait." Xiao Er saw that Yuchen Daoist was dressed in a fine Taoist robe that couldn't even see any roughness, and he didn't look like a poor ghost who couldn't afford to pay, so he hurriedly responded.
From time to time, a few plates of cold dishes and a pot of sake were brought up first, and Yuchen Daoist took a sip of sake, frowned, and put it down.
"Sure enough, you shouldn't have any illusions about the sake of the ancient society, this is still high-quality sake, and if it is cloudy sake, wouldn't it..... Do you want to learn from the seniors of the academic qualifications and get out the distilled spirits and soap glass or something? ”
Thinking about Yuchen Daoren, he gave up this idea again, without him, it was too annoying, so let's wait for the opportunity to talk about it later.
However, although the sake is unpleasant, I didn't expect the food to be quite unpalatable, and for modern people who are used to eating various condiment additives, the ancient dishes are also pits.
And by the way, in fact, the ancient fruits and vegetables are still in a primitive form, thousands of years of variety improvement, and the current appearance is completely different.
But anyway, you can eat and drink dew, and you don't need fireworks in the world, you should taste the life of the ancients, but the most important thing is that in all kinds of scripts, restaurants are the most important information exchange centers.
However, Yuchen Daoist sat for a long time, and he didn't see this, everyone was eating food and toasting and praising each other by the way, but he didn't hear any secret news or any big news.
"I'm so stupid, really, I just know that there are all kinds of information dissemination and exchange in the restaurant in the novel, but I don't know that it's all a lie." Yuchen Daoren sandwiched a slice of sauced beef with a 233 face, which was the only food he felt good about.
"I don't want to think about it, who has nothing to do with me when eating, and it's not in social software like QQ or WeChat."
"Yikes! This sauce beef is good, thanks to the early invention of soy sauce, and it is also a buffalo, not a hard scalper, but why does the hotel in the feudal farming society have beef? ”
"By the way, I remember that dead cows and sick cows can be eaten, this beef will not be.... Gott~"
In the end, half a table of dishes, Yuchen Daoist moved a few chopsticks, sighed, and was about to call Xiao Er to settle the bill.
At this time, sitting at another table, drinking a pot of tea, looking at the girl who was killing time on the windowsill, saw Yuchen Daoren, turned her eyes, and said to Xiao Er: "Exempt this Taoist from his account." ”
Then he turned his head and walked towards Yuchen Daoren, bowed and said, "This Dao Master, I'm sorry, it seems that the food in our Moon Tower is not to your liking, Xiao Yan has made amends to you." ”
"Xiao Yan? Are you a genius of the Xiao family? Daoist Yuchen asked with a strange expression.
"The Taoist has an overreputation, Xiao Yan just relied on the blessings of his ancestors to be admitted to the martial arts, as Xiao Taishi, Xiao Yan's achievements are really worthy of his ancestors, but he can't be called a genius." Xiao Yan was also stunned, thinking that Yuchen Daoist had heard of him, so he was busy humbling himself.
"Damn, really." Yuchen Daoren's face was even more distorted.
