Chapter 133: Scolding the cook before finishing the meal?

Since Hu Hengqiu had agreed to go to the emperor to report it, it was no longer a lie, Chu Qing felt at ease. He took these guys shopping again! He didn't even finish his shopping yesterday!

After shopping around for a long time, these boys didn't buy anything for themselves, but they bought a lot of food and supplies for Xiaobao. Chu Qing bought several bottles of popular Kyoto wine for Lao Yu, Lao Zhao and Master Lu, and

I bought a few travelogues and other books for Mr. Nie and Mr. Xie. I also brought some of the latest rouge and gouache from Kyoto’s Xin Yuan Pavilion to Mrs. Song.

When they were tired from shopping, they looked for a place to eat. Chu Qing took everyone to a very grand restaurant in the West Market for dinner.

"Boss, is this the largest restaurant in Kyoto? Is it too expensive? How about we change places?"

"Boss, why don't we go to Dongshi? It's not so lively there and it shouldn't be very expensive."

Seeing that the boys were reluctant to spend money, Chu Qing said proudly: "This is it! Boss, I'll treat you to a nice meal!"

In fact, what Chu Qing didn't say was that the East Market seemed less prosperous than the West Market because it was where dignitaries lived, so it was naturally not very noisy.

If I lead people to eat and drink so arrogantly, what would the superior officers think if they saw me? Wouldn't it be that they don't want to hang out?

Although Saishi Market is very prosperous, it is a place where the "low industries" that the nobles look down on the most gather. There are few officials. It is also the main industrial and commercial district and economic activity center of Kyoto.

It was clear in front of them that the restaurant they entered, "Jun You Lai", could be said to be the largest restaurant in the West City. It was said that the food in this restaurant was particularly delicious, and one of the chefs they used was a retired imperial chef from the palace.

In order to let everyone have fun together, Chu Qing set up two tables on the first floor as he did the night before, and everyone crowded together to eat.

The dishes were served one after another. It was so beautiful. Chu Qing took names one by one. The boys were drooling as they watched, waiting for the boss to say something.

Chu Qing couldn't let everyone just stare, so he picked up a bite of food with his chopsticks; "Eat!" The boys immediately started eating.

"Hey, let me tell you, this dish looks pretty good, but why do you feel so tired after eating it?" He took another big mouthful.

"Yes, this cold dish is all sesame flavored. I just thought it would be refreshing to eat cucumber, but it doesn't feel good at all! The cucumber is not crispy and not fresh at all."

"It can be fresh! In this season, it would be great to be able to eat cucumbers that have been stored until now. It will take more than three months to eat fresh ones!" His mouth was full of food, and he could not speak clearly.

"The key is meat, meat, brothers! This is chicken, does it taste like mutton when you eat it?"

"Mutton is more expensive than chicken. If you taste the mutton taste, you will make a lot of money, hahaha!"

Chu Qing listened to what they said to each other, and her voice got louder and louder, so she had to interrupt: "That's it! People only scold the cook after they are full, but you are scolding the cook while you are eating?!"

"No, boss, we are speaking from the bottom of our hearts. This food is really not as delicious as yours. Our Blue House is not even close, so why do we have the nerve to call it 'Jun You Lai' restaurant!"

"This wine is not good either. It's too sweet. If you want something sweet, just drink sugar water and you're done. This sugar water is not sugar water, and wine is not wine. It's neither fish nor fowl!"

Come on! The voice is softer, but the mouth is still not blocked!

"Hey, hey, shut up! Listen!" Chu Yuan said.

There is an enclosed stage at the entrance on the first floor, which is specially built by the restaurant so that guests can enjoy the performance while eating.

At this time, there was a woman standing on the stage. She was dressed in black and had a ponytail hanging on her head. She looked a bit like a boss, and she was singing "Guanshan Wine".

The guests at the next table were discussing this song: "I heard that this singing method was created by a woman, and the Duke of the country praised it highly."

"I heard that the emperor was celebrating his birthday, so the Duke brought this song to the emperor!"

"Don't tell me, it sounds really good!"

"Listen to this word..."

The boys were unhappy: "What the hell is this! When did the boss ever sing like this!"

"Isn't this derogatory?"

"This soft thing doesn't have the momentum to fight on the battlefield!"

The boys spoke louder without realizing it.

"Hey, how can you talk?"

"Are you from out of town? Don't be blind if you don't know anything! What do you know?"

The boys were immediately unconvinced: "What do you know! If this song is sung like this, no one will fall asleep on the battlefield!"

There was a quarrel all of a sudden. Chu Qing couldn't hold back even if he tried to do this, and he wouldn't listen to his advice. They couldn't allow these people to waste the boss's things like this. This is the principle!

"Ouch! I'm just a bitch and I'm still not convinced! If you can do it, you can do it. If you can't, don't do it!"

"Come on, come on, you all listen up! Brothers, one, two, three, get up! I've had wine in my throat since Guanshan..."

Twenty-one young men sang in unison. The momentum of a group of veterans instantly overwhelmed the entire audience! Guests on the second and third floors also came out one after another and leaned on the railing to watch.

Chu Qing was so depressed! He twisted Chu Yuan's arm hard and swallowed two mouthfuls of food: "Still singing! Hurry up, pack up, pay the money, and leave!" Then he wiped his mouth and slipped out.

If you want to destroy the place, you must destroy it. I have to go out and hide!

Chu Yuan looked at Chu Qing and disappeared in a blink of an eye. He was not idle at all. He was shouting and singing along with his brothers. His men quickly poured all the food into a big goldfish bowl he bought while shopping, and poured it with a furoshiki.

Kabuto, after the brothers finished singing the last line, he threw a piece of silver on the table and ran away with everyone!

Chu Qing didn't wait long at the entrance of the alley next to her when she saw Chu Yuan and others coming out in a swarm.

"Is the song finished?" Chu Qing was annoyed.

"Yeah, the singing is over!" The boys felt refreshed.

"Are you happy?" Chu Qing's voice was even higher.

"Boss..." What the boss said is not quite right.

"Huh! Do what you can!" Chu Qing walked away with his hands behind his back.

Chu Yuan put the large vat of hodgepodge in his arms into the arms of his brothers and hurried to follow. If you don't watch this carefully, the boss might lose it again!

………………

The next day Chu Qing led everyone back to Jizhou. You can't miss work for too long!

The day after Chu Qing arrived home, he received the imperial edict at the gate of his house. Along with the imperial edict, there was also a plaque with four big characters in the center: Jingbiao Jiexiao.

The imperial court has always been highly publicized in this regard. The dynasties of the past dynasties have greatly praised the so-called righteous husbands, chaste wives, filial sons, wise men, seclusion, and living together for many generations. Local officials often report to the court, and after approval, they will be given a plaque, or the government will

A stone workshop was built to show his reputation and integrity.

When the imperial edict was received, people all over the street came to watch the excitement. After all, the team came beating gongs and drums to announce the edict.

Passers-by were talking about anything. Chu Qing had no contact with the neighbors, so most people were speculating about this woman who looked very different.

Most of them are in a complimentary tone. A chaste and martyr woman is always praised.

Only the boys in Chu Qing's family felt unhappy. Lao Yu and Lao Zhao looked at Chu Qing with worries in their eyes.

After sending away the officials who announced the decree, Chu Qing asked Chu Yuan and Zhuo Yao to hang the plaque on the screen wall facing the door. Who will have the idea of ​​​​proposing a marriage in the future? Don't forget to take a look when you enter!

"Boss, you..." Old Yu hesitated under the plaque: "But you have thought about it?"

"What's there to think about?" Chu Qing smiled, "This will save a lot of trouble."

"But you..."

"Lao Yu, look, do I need to rely on others?" Chu Qing asked.
