Chen Yuannian and others walked into the private room and each entered the seat.
"Mr. Yu, Mr. Ye, this Yuelaiju is quite famous in Dingyuan County. I have eaten the food here a few times, which is quite good. Today I want you to try it." Chen Yuannian smiled.
The eyes swept across Yu Xiaozhi and Ye Jinyu.
"Mr. Chen, I'm so polite. It's our honor to have you personally welcome us to the two of us this time. As for where to go and what to eat, it doesn't matter." Yu Xiaozhi smiled faintly and said.
Ye Jinyu also stared at Chen Yuannian with a smile on his face. Although they both have a considerable status in their respective blood vessels, they are just teachers after all. Unexpectedly, when they come to Dingyuan County, Lord Chen will give them the same.
Such a big face.
Although scholars do not pursue fame and fortune, it is really hard for them to refuse Mr. Chen's kindness.
"Mr. Chen, since that's the case, I'm thanking me here." Ye Jinyu gave a bow to Chen Yuannian and said with a smile.
Chen Yuannian shook his head, his eyes full of kindness, but he did not deliberately please him. He also liked the reputation of the two and wanted to make friends with them.
In addition, I just hope that if a student who can enter the Chongming Prefecture Academy or Huaiyuan Provincial Academy will be released in Dingyuan County in the future, they can help take care of him.
.
While the few people were talking, a child had already delivered the dishes.
"I'm objective, order whatever you want. The taste of the food in this restaurant will definitely make you want to come back after eating it." The child said with a standard professional smile on his face.
Chen Yuannian nodded, then handed the dish to Yu Xiaozhi and Ye Jinyu and the others, and said, "Mr. Yu, Mr. Ye, see what you want to eat, just order it."
This is a customary rule for entertaining guests. In order to show respect for guests, the dishes should be handed over to the guests as soon as possible when they come on.
The two gentlemen are also mature people. How could they not know the unspoken rules on the dining table?
"Mr. Chen, don't be polite. If you are polite, we two will have no shame to eat this."
"Yes, Lord Chen, so-called follow the customs of the countryside, you can order it here, but we don't care what to eat."
Yu Xiaozhi and Ye Jinyu both waved their hands. It was obvious that they knew from Chen Yuannian's actions that Lord Chen was polite to them, and quickly shirked.
Chen Yuannian smiled and said, "Okay, the two gentlemen are not outsiders. Since that's the case, I'm not polite."
Then Chen Yuannian began ordering according to the menu.
Chen Yuannian ordered the standard eight dishes and one soup. Just when he was about to return the dish to Xiaoer, he saw the words "Zhuangyuan Soup" written at the bottom of the dish.
This is a bit strange. I have been in Dingyuan County for many years and have established a restaurant. I have eaten the dishes, but I have never heard of it.
Then he turned around and asked Xiao'er, "Children, what is this top scholar soup?"
When the child heard the words, he immediately spoke out: "Reporting objectively, this Zhuangyuan Soup is the latest dish that has been withdrawn from our store. You might as well try it objectively."
Originally, Xiao Chu didn't want to expose these three dishes in advance, but it was only two days before the reopening was released. He still had to release them and give them to Erwa, otherwise he would mess it up by then
But it was embarrassing, and these three dishes appeared on the dish.
Chen Yuannian looked up at the top again, his face darkened, and he was a little surprised, thinking to himself: What is this top scholar soup? It actually costs three taels of silver?
Chen Yuannian sighed in his heart, this may be the most expensive dish in Dingyuan County.
However, this aroused Chen Yuannian's curiosity, and then said to the waiter: "I'm adding a top scholar soup."
The waiter quickly responded, and then took the vegetable card and walked out.
Chen Yuannian was still in amazement when he was sitting in the seat. He knew that this restaurant was run by Xiao Chu, the little guy, but he couldn't figure out what was strange about this dish that could sell three taels of silver.
"What's the point of this kid Xiao Chu?" Chen Yuannian thought to himself.
Chen Yuannian thought about it, but he became immersed in an unconscious way, as if he had forgotten that he was greeting the two gentlemen.
Others were a little strange when they saw Chen Yuannian's actions. They didn't know what this Lord Chen was doing.
"Mr. Chen?"
Chen Yuannian came to his senses after being called out like this.
"Sorry, everyone, I was so fascinated by the thoughts just now. Mr. Chen apologized again." Chen Yuannian smiled and said slowly, the etiquette in his behavior was so vague.
"Mr. Chen, it's serious!"
Everyone laughed like Chen Yuannian and catered to the Tao.
After all, Chen Yuannian was an official, and they were the people. Although they were not very high, they still had some authority.
"Two gentlemen, I heard you are looking for that little guy Xiao Chu today?" Chen Yuannian asked, looking down on Yu Xiaozhi and Ye Jinyu.
The two nodded, but their faces were a little bad. Then Ye Jinyu spoke, saying the purpose of the two of them looking for Xiao Chu, and also focused on telling the story of Xiao Chu rejecting them. Although he was a little
The guy refused to be embarrassed, but Li Zhiyuan and Chen Changxue knew about this and would sooner or later reach Lord Chen's ears, so there was no need to hide it.
After hearing this, Chen Yuannian was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Xiao Chu would be so arrogant and would even refuse the invitation from both gentlemen. You must know that if he performed well in the poetry competition, he would enhance his reputation.
But it's very helpful.
When Ye Jinyu and Yu Xiaozhi were talking about playing this, the fair-skinned young actor who was sitting next to him pouted, obviously still being annoyed by what happened just now.
"This boy who is ignorant of esteem." The fair-skinned young man whispered slowly in his mouth, but his voice was extremely small, but no one listened to the sermon.
"Brother Jinyu, Brother Xiaozhi, you may have just met Xiao Chu, and you don't know much about him. Although Xiao Chu is still young, his mind is extremely mature. Since he decided like this, he must have some reasons for him.
.” Chen Yuannian said in a gentle tone.
"Well, you can see this, but, Lord Chen, you know that the number of places in the poetry competitions will be selected among the counties and counties that are the number one in the literary competitions, and Xiao Chu's performance is undoubtedly the most suitable one.
The candidate, now this little guy has refused, this has caused problems for both of us." Ye Jinyu said slowly, expressing his thoughts.
After hearing this, Chen Yuannian nodded slightly and then began to ponder.
However, Chen Yuannian did not continue his question, but asked: "Everyone, do you know why you were invited here today, rather than the largest restaurant in Dingyuan County?"
Everyone was puzzled.
"Because, the owner of this restaurant is that little guy Xiao Chu!"
After the words fell, everyone was silent.
The fair-skinned young man who had been sitting next to him had grown up with an incredible look on his face.
