Chapter Seventy-Four: The Unannounced Return to the Forest House (1)
I'm very sorry, Ah Lan has an urgent matter today, so I can only put it up in a hurry, and I ask my sisters to forgive me, I will definitely change it tomorrow!)
Chu Lian had the intention of making an unannounced visit today, so he was dressed ordinarily, and even the carriage he was riding in did not have the logo of Jing'anbo Mansion.
The group looked like a young lady from an ordinary official eunuch family.
Guilin lives in the depths of the old West City, and since the West Market was re-planned by the Ministry of Industry, this area has been zoned to the territory of Anle Fang.
Anle Fang is mostly ordinary houses, most of the shops that were placed here have been sold, and they have become people's homes, and those who do business in this area, especially the business of restaurants, I am afraid that only the Guilinju family remains.
Although the people of Anle Fang are not poor, there are not many people at home who have extra money to go to the restaurant, at this time, the money for the next restaurant can be used to buy a lot of fish and meat dishes at home, and Meimei has eaten several meals.
The source of customers in Guilinju is insufficient, and the food service is too ordinary, even inferior to the small restaurant next to it, and the daily business can be seen.
If it weren't for the special significance of this restaurant to Mrs. He, I am afraid that it would have closed more than ten years ago, and where would it have been placed to do a loss-making business.
The carriage drove smoothly in the alley of Anlefang, and now it was close to noon, the smoke curled in the people's homes, the children chased and frolicked in the streets and alleys, and the people carrying the burden walked by from time to time on the small road in the alley, and their faces were full of sweat but smiling happily.
Chu Lian opened the carriage curtain slightly, and looked at the life scene of the people of the Dawu Dynasty in front of her with a pair of big eyes, which was really vivid, and only then did she have a trace of consciousness that she was also in it.
Seeing that she was staring outside, she thought she was in a hurry, and said, "Third grandmother, there are still two alleys to Guilinju." ”
Wen Qing and Lan used to live in Zhuangzi with Mama Zhong, and Wen Qing's house is close to Anle Fang, and she is most familiar with this area.
Chu Lian lowered the curtain, took a sip of the honey water in the cup in front of him, tilted his head and said, "When I arrive at Guilinju in a while, none of you are allowed to reveal my identity, do you know?"
Although it was strange how the third grandmother could have such an order, they were all interested in not asking, and nodded their heads one after another.
Sure enough, in the slight shaking of the carriage, it was not long before they arrived at the door of Guilinju.
Guilin lives at the corner of a street, in the original West Market, but it is a good location, but now after this piece has become a private residence, the people who do business before and after have closed one after another, and only this lonely family is left in this old alley.
The old alley of Anle Fang looks unique, but unfortunately there are few people, and most of the people come and go home to eat.
Chu Lian was asked to help Qing get out of the carriage.
She raised her head slightly and looked at Gui Linju in front of her.
Xu is the relationship between the unified buildings of the West City in the past, and the façade of Guilinju outside does not look big, and there is only one floor.
The sandalwood-colored plaque is ink-colored handwriting, and the three big characters of "Returning to the Forest House" are free and open-minded, and there is a smell of wanting to ride the wind, which makes people yearn for it.
It's just that this plaque is too old, and it is stained with a layer of mottling, and the paint surface has begun to fall off in many places, with a sense of vicissitudes.
This is obviously the result of the lack of maintenance in the restaurant.
Chu Lian looked away from the plaque and landed in the restaurant.
Near noon, there were many birds at the door of Guilinju, and there was no shopkeeper sitting behind the counter, only a low wooden stool was placed next to the counter, and a young man in rough clothes of fifteen or sixteen years old was sitting on the wooden stool, and the young man was sleeping against the counter, and the crystal saliva was flowing down from the corners of his mouth.
Seeing Gui Linju's lazy state, Chu Lian frowned slightly, and Wen Qing's face sank even more angrily.
Chu Lian stepped into Guilinju in three or two steps, and until he was in front of the young man, the sleeping young man did not wake up.
Wen Qing stepped forward angrily and pushed the young man, the young man's body was crooked, and then he suddenly woke up from his sleep.
"Who! Who's pushing me!"
