Jinling Pailou is an authentic local catering brand in Jinling. It has several branches in Jinling, specializing in authentic Jinling food, and is deeply loved by locals.

When he arrived at the entrance of the Jinling Archway, He Yuanjiang introduced to Ye Chen: "My ancestors were all authentic locals from Jinling. From my birth to my teenage years, I have lived in Jinling. Later, I went to the United States to study and took root in the United States. Recently, after decades of separation, I suddenly felt that the food in my hometown was so tempting. I would not get tired of eating it. Although the school’s teacher cafeteria provides free food, I would come here every day at noon to eat authentic Jinling dishes."

After saying that, he asked Ye Chen: "But you have lived in Jinling for so many years, are you tired of eating?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "I actually have no pursuit of eating. During my ten years in the welfare home, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Later, I went to the construction site to work, and I felt that it was good if I had boiled water every day."

He Yuanjiang couldn't help but sigh: "The life you lived before you were eight years old is comparable to that of a few people in this world. How did you adapt to it after so many years of falling to the bottom?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "When I was very young, my parents taught me not to be happy with things or to be sad with myself. So for me, there is nothing to adapt to. I just want to be at ease when I come. Whether it is to be pampered or to eat braised vegetables, there is actually no difference."

He Yuanjiang sighed: "You are really exactly the same as your mother. When we were in undergraduate, your mother not only won a full scholarship based on her strength, but also worked in a restaurant outside the school every day. She usually has a frugal diet and clothing, and never wastes extravagance."

"I remember that at that time, at the end of each semester, your mother would use the money she saved in one semester to travel, and she was a backpacker for traveling. At that time, we all thought that your mother's family must be very poor. Later, we found out that your mother's family's strength is the best among Chinese in the world..."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "I remember that she is indeed very frugal. She always teaches me to learn to save money and not waste it. She doesn't even have a grain of rice left when eating. This is very similar to my father. They actually have no pursuit of material things."

He Yuanjiang agreed: "So your mother and your father can get together. When they should be young and frivolous, they have already separated from material pursuits and low-level interests. Unlike us, when we were young, we thought about making money and gaining fame every day."

As he said that, He Yuanjiang entered the hotel first and made a call to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen hurriedly followed him in. At this time, the lobby of the first floor of the hotel was already full of people.

The local restaurant in Jinling is quite similar to the teahouse in Yanjing. Basically, the first floor is full of halls, with many tables and many people, so the environment is relatively noisy, but most people like this messy feeling.

Moreover, in the center of the first floor, there is a small stage dedicated to people playing and singing local operas. At this time, two actors were singing Kunqu operas on stage.

After He Yuanjiang came in, he pointed to the stairs and said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, I have settled a seat on the second floor, and the upstairs are more peaceful. Let's go up."

"good."

After moving to the second floor, the environment was a little cleaner. When a waiter saw the two of them coming up, he hurried to the front and said politely: "Professor He, you are here!"

He Yuanjiang nodded and smiled, "It's still the old position, I've greeted your manager."

The waiter said: "Our manager has told me that you two can come with me."

The seat He Yuanjiang chose was a small square table made of logs, with four people sitting on four sides, so the two of them sat against the window.

He Yuanjiang pushed a menu and said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, come on and see what they like to eat."

Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled, "Uncle He, you'd better come on, I'll eat whatever you order."

After saying that, he suddenly found two familiar figures not far away, just by the window.
