Just as Zhang Lihua was thinking this, maybe God heard what she was thinking and greeted two more tables of guests.
At sunrise, a convoy, a carriage and a dozen mounted guards came from the direction of Panshi Town.
This team of people looked extraordinary at first glance. Yang Dalian had dealt with many people in the escort agency before, and Yang Dalian knew it from a distance.
He hurriedly went out to say hello, but he didn't expect the group of people to continue walking forward without stopping. Zhang Lihua and Aling, who were watching eagerly in the inn, were also disappointed and watched the motorcade go away helplessly.
But after a while, the convoy actually backed up and headed straight for the inn. A guard led the way and asked Yang Dalian, who was still standing where he was, "Can I stay here?"
"Okay." Yang Dalian was not curious about why they came back, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Do you want to stay in the hotel? Please come inside."
Soon, the guard returned to the carriage and said something, and the coachman drove the carriage over. When he reached the door, he opened the curtain and saw an older woman and a little maid getting down one after another, and then helped them down.
A beautifully dressed lady.
When Zhang Lihua looked at it, her eyes secretly lit up. Wow, she just said she wanted to see a female guest, and here comes a female guest. She is actually such an elegant lady.
Zhang Lihua couldn't describe her. She just felt that this lady was very good-looking, even more beautiful and noble than the wife of shopkeeper Song she saw yesterday. She couldn't help but stiffen her hands and feet, fearing that she might not be able to greet her well.
The three of them entered the inn under the protection of the guards, and the guards behind them arranged for Yang Dalian to place the carriages and horses.
Walking into the inn, the older woman said to Du Chuanfu, who was waiting for the receptionist: "Can you please arrange a clean room for my wife?"
Du Chuanfu agreed and glanced at Zhang Lihua. Zhang Lihua understood and quickly stepped forward to lead them to the wing on the left.
When you come out of the door on the left, you will see a corridor with many side rooms on both sides, which is really elegant.
The two people supported the lady, but they only looked at her twice more and then looked away.
It was the first time someone stayed in a hotel. Zhang Lihua pushed open the first room they had decorated without thinking. This room was the best decorated and she liked it for most of the day.
The two people helped the lady come in and frowned when they saw the furnishings in the room, but seeing that it was quite neat and clean, they didn't say anything.
Helping the lady to sit down on the bed, she said to Zhang Lihua: "My wife has a light appetite. Please ask the store to prepare some light food and bring some clean hot water. As for the guards outside, the store will take care of them.
arrange."
Zhang Lihua agreed, then quickly glanced at the lady who looked not so good and looked like she was sick, turned around and went out.
At Du Chuanfu's invitation, a dozen guards sat at two tables and were drinking hot tea to quench their thirst.
Zhang Lihua quickly went to the kitchen and told Song Qiu what the woman said.
Song Qiu heard that the lady seemed to be sick, and thought that the dishes prepared today would not be to their taste.
Customers come first, so she just makes something light.
This is the first guest to stay, so it has a different meaning.
The hospitality was done so well that people will only think about coming back next time!
First, she was busy cooking a pot of red date porridge. She had also prepared all the necessary condiments.
I chopped another chicken leg to soak up the blood, put in Codonopsis pilosula and other things, simmered it with soaked mountain mushrooms, and then started to prepare the food for the guards.
There were so many of them that they could sit at two tables. They made double portions of each dish and the food was served quickly.
I just made a boiled fish, a stir-fried sausage, a twice-cooked pork, a pork belly with red oil, a pork liver with pickled pepper, a roast chicken with taro, a mapo tofu, a vegetarian fried sweet potato shreds, and a winter melon meat.
Make round soup and add a large bowl of rice.
When the food for the guards was served, Song Qiu looked at the red date porridge that had been boiled until it was soft. The previous cooking work allowed Wang to roll out the dough and chop the meat filling to make a delicate basket.
Small wheat ear-shaped steamed dumplings.
Steamed another cup of egg and minced meat soup.
The chicken soup on the small stove has also become fragrant. Take out everything in it, leaving only the soup, and then add the white and tender tofu cubes.
After a while, Zhang Lihua and Aling carried a tray each, carrying red date porridge, minced meat soup with eggs, steamed dumplings and stewed tofu in chicken soup to the side room.
The woman took it and looked at it. She was satisfied with it, so she waited on the lady and sat down to eat.
"There's nothing good in this small place. Madam, I'll just have something to eat and we'll be fine when we land in Yunshan County tomorrow."
The woman served red date porridge. The maid tried it first and then respectfully presented it to the madam.
Mrs. Huayi lost her appetite after two bites, but she ate several steamed dumplings in a row, and I took two more bites of the fresh and tender tofu.
"It's a rare thing that there is such an inn in this place. There are also these dumplings, which are quite good. The chicken soup is also stewed with a unique flavor. If it weren't for my body, we might not have rested here, and we wouldn't have been able to eat this. It's not bad.
Dumplings."
Seeing that her master liked it, the woman hurriedly said: "Madam, if you like it, I will instruct the shopkeeper to make it in the evening."
The lady waved her hand, "Let's see what she does in the evening."
…
Until noon, no one came into the inn. Fortunately, there were people staying at the inn, and today's profit was considerable.
Song Qiu prepared everyone's lunch and couldn't rest. When the tea shed was busy one after another until about midnight, he would start preparing for the evening meal.
Before that, Song Qiu thought about his wife who was staying in the hotel, and thoughtfully made a snack of mung bean cake and pumpkin shredded cake, as well as a pot of specially brewed wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea to serve as afternoon tea.
In the side room, the lady was leaning on the bed. After resting for half an afternoon, her complexion finally got better. She took the pills handed over by the woman and ate them with a slight smile on her face, "The person taking the spoon is a half-girl? It's more interesting."
It’s rare.”
"No, I heard that the people from the village behind this are really good at this craft at such a young age. It is indeed rare." The woman looked at the snacks and wolfberry flower tea that had just been delivered and replied.
The lady nodded, took the hot and fragrant wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea and took a sip. This was the first time she drank tea other than tea brewed by the waiter herself when she was away from home.
The taste is not bad, but elegant and light. Looking at the red date cake and pumpkin shredded cake, I am also very appetizing. "You two should eat some too, it looks good."
The woman and the little maid agreed.
"I've stayed at so many inns along the way, and I'm satisfied with this one. Remember to take a look when you leave tomorrow," the lady said again.
"Don't worry, madam, I'll spare you the trouble, slave."
…
Song Qiu is still busy here, and there are still some dishes prepared for lunch, but he has already cooked them for lunch and cannot serve them the same way, so Song Qiu changed the method.
The boiled fish was replaced with fish in sour soup, and boiled meat slices, braised pork belly, spicy chicken, braised pork, etc. were considered as a suitable dinner for the guards.
As for the lady and the two waiters, Song Qiu steamed the soft and glutinous rice alone.
Cut out two pieces of chicken breast and make a refreshing and delicious cold shredded chicken.
I steamed glutinous rice balls and fried Daoshan mushrooms.
Then I made a crucian carp and tofu soup and fried sweet potato slices.
That's it.
