Lexiang and Han Feng walked into a narrow street one after another. Although the street was not wide, there were wine shops, teahouses, and restaurants on both sides. No matter how big the storefront was, they could all sell food. The spacious streets
At most, put a few more chairs, or two less if there is no room. Although there are many places to eat, each household has its own unique characteristics, and even the roadside stalls usually have their own specialties.
signature snacks.
Han Feng and Le Xiang stared at the dazzling array of food stalls around them, but couldn't decide which one to go to. Han Feng pointed to a two-story building with a generously decorated facade and said, "I think this place is good, and the name of the shop is also good."
Elegant, 'Songhe Pavilion'. We will serve two bottles of wine, a few plates of side dishes, and sit with him for the entire afternoon."
Le Xiang nodded and said: "That's very good, let's go."
The two walked into the restaurant. From the outside, the restaurant didn't look big, but when they stepped inside, Han Feng realized that the restaurant was not small. The interior hall was elegantly furnished, and there were not many tables and chairs. There was one at the entrance.
The waiter who greeted guests said "please" softly and said nothing more. This was completely different from the enthusiasm with which guests welcome guests in ordinary restaurants.[
The restaurant has two floors. In order to have a better view, the two of them went straight to the second floor. They chose a seat and sat down. Han Feng lightly patted the table. At this moment, a waiter walked over quietly.
This waiter was not very old, but he had thin skin and tender meat, which was pleasant to look at. The young man gently opened a cookbook with a leather title page and placed it in front of Han Feng.
Touching the rough title page, Han Feng looked at the dishes on the menu carefully. After flipping through a few pages, he felt troublesome and raised his head and said, "What special dishes are there? Let's serve three or five dishes, plus fine wine."
Two pounds."
The waiter nodded, said, "I understand," then gently put away the menu and quietly left.
Le Xiang pointed to the people dining quietly around him and said: "It seems that elegance is the main focus here. Even the waiters carrying the food trays are elegant. I think the people eating are not ordinary people. Brother, you still have a unique taste."
Han Feng chuckled and said, "That's natural. Compared to Master and the others, we are much more relaxed. Look at those people in the streets, they are so tacky. I even wonder how those four beauties can persist."
Le Xiang narrowed his eyes and said, "You don't need to worry about this. When I left just now, I saw something strange in the eyes of your future pretty master. Maybe she is suing us in front of the boss right now?"
Han Feng was a little worried when he heard this, and said anxiously: "How about we go back?"
Lexiang made a "cut" sound and said disdainfully: "You are a man who has fought before, so you just do what you are afraid of. The leader is not the kind of person who is prudent. Besides, it is enough for him to see it alone. We are here
There is no need to accompany you there."
While the two were chatting, the first dish had been placed on the plate. There was no sound of the waiter walking and placing the plate on the table. There was a big braised fish on the oval plate. It looked like
It weighs two kilograms, and the fish's mouth is still opening and closing, as if it is not dead. The fish is carved with flower knives, drizzled with bright red sauce, and decorated with a few green leaves on the side. Judging from the appearance, it is already of high quality.
Dishes.
"This dish is braised river sturgeon, a specialty of the shop, please enjoy it slowly."
Lexiang stopped the guy and asked: "The golden sands are near the sea, and the coastline stretches for thousands of miles. Why not choose fish from that sea?"
"My guests don't know that because it is close to the sea, the people of Jinsha are far less fond of seafood than river fish. This is when the water in the north is rising, and river sturgeons are the most delicious. If you come a few days later, you just want to
It’s impossible to taste this dish.” The waiter said with some pride.
Lexiang waved the waiter to leave, raised his chopsticks, and was about to take off the chopsticks when he heard a burst of footsteps coming from the stairs. The people going upstairs were walking heavily, and they sounded like ordinary people without moral principles. After a while, a thin middle-aged man walked up.
The young man appeared on the second floor.
The two guys at the stairway suddenly showed a look of displeasure when they saw this middle-aged man. The habits they had developed in such elegant places over the years made them unable to think of any way to keep this man away.
, but at this moment, the middle-aged man, like a slippery fish, skillfully passed through the gap between the two people and went straight to the table of Han Feng and Le Xiang.
Before the others arrived, a sour smell came first, making the two of them frown. The middle-aged man was not polite, sat down, grabbed the chopsticks in front of Han, and pointed at the two-pound
Remove the heavy sturgeon.
At this time, the two waiters finally had enough patience and quickly came to the middle-aged man. A strong waiter grabbed his shoulders and chest, picked him up like a chicken, and dragged him to the stairs.
The middle-aged man's robe was in tatters, and when the waiter grabbed him, two big holes were revealed. Through the big hole on his chest, Han Feng saw the rugged bones on this man's chest.
"Put him down." Han Feng said suddenly.[
The waiter was startled, his face immediately softened, and he said politely: "You don't know, this gentleman is not the first time to visit our store. In the past few times he came to the store, he always ate the best dishes and drank the best drinks.
The boss took pity on him because he was suffering from tuberculosis and exempted him from the previous meals. Unexpectedly, he went even worse and directly grabbed other people's meals. This is not the first time that this has happened, and there is nothing we can do about it.
.”
Han Feng nodded to the waiter and said, "Let the man come over, get him a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and eat at the same table with us."
The strong man frowned, "This..."
"I will repay him all the money he owes you."
The waiter was still unwilling to give in, but he had nothing to do. He let go of his hand angrily, but said unforgivingly, "You dirty thing. The reason why you met a kind-hearted donor today is because of your good deeds in your previous life.
If you come here to eat and drink together next time, see if I, Liang San, don't break your legs."
As if he had received an amnesty, the man crawled to Han Feng's table. Without even saying thank you, he picked up Han Feng's chopsticks and picked up the fish.
Even though his arms were as skinny as skin and bones, his chopsticks were extremely accurate and he caught the fattest part of the fish in one fell swoop. Using his fingers hard, he stuffed the fish meat with the soup into his mouth. The sturgeon's meat had no spines.
Therefore, the middle-aged man took it into his mouth and chewed it all together, as if he had eaten it many times before and was familiar with the road.
At this moment, a waiter brought up another set of bowls and chopsticks, and before leaving, he did not forget to give the man a piercing look. The middle-aged man didn't care, he leaned up slightly, and actually put a big one in his hands.
Fart, the sound of the fart was both hard and soft, quite loud, and the guests dining on the second floor did not notice it, so they all covered their mouths and noses.
The middle-aged man snorted, sat up straight and said, "What are they? If it were in the past, you wouldn't be able to smell my farts."
Han Feng said politely: "Your Excellency seems to have been decent before, but I don't know why you have fallen into this situation?"
The middle-aged man laughed and said: "In your eyes, I am degraded, but in my heart, I am liberated. I can free myself from the shackles hanging above my head and let the damnation come more violently."
The middle-aged man spoke loudly, causing the two or three people at the next table who were conversing attentively to turn around and give him cold looks from time to time.
Le Xiang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said: "I don't know what your surname is?"
The middle-aged man looked at Le Xiang with squinted eyes, looked at it for a long time, and finally said: "I forgot."
At this moment, a waiter brought the second dish. There were two meatballs as big as fists in a huge white jade porcelain bowl. Putting the porcelain bowl down, the waiter said softly: "This is the famous crab meat lion's head in the shop, please."
Use it slowly.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as the dish was served, the middle-aged man's hands were even faster. He picked up a meatball that had just come out of the pot in front of him with a pair of chopsticks. He didn't care about burning it and swallowed it in three mouthfuls. After eating,
He clicked his lips and said with a smile: "Enjoyed." Then he flipped his wrist and pinched another meatball.
The waiter on the side cursed in a low voice, "I'll burn you to death, you loser."
But Han Feng was even more convinced that this person was unusual. Even if an ordinary person has iron teeth and bronze teeth, his stomach is always made of meat. After eating the hot meatballs with hot oil in his stomach, he actually talked and laughed. This was clearly showing off his
However, he used his spiritual consciousness to scan the opponent's body several times, but found nothing.
After making eye contact with Le Xiang, the other party also thought in the same way. It is better not to mess with this kind of person. Maybe he is the ancestor of the aristocratic family. He is bored with cultivation and has left the world to play.
After two meatballs were eaten, the middle-aged man wiped oil on his tattered clothes, touched his slightly bulging belly, and said: "If you eat delicious food from mountains and seas today, don't worry about being hungry tomorrow."
Someone is coming, and it's time for me to leave, Han Feng, Lexiang, we'll see you later."
After that, he walked downstairs without looking back. Le Xiang and Han Feng heard him say his name and hurriedly chased him. They were so fast, but when they arrived at the door of the hotel, they didn't even see anyone.
The waiter on the second floor was so shocked that he hurriedly followed him down and looked at the two people in a panic, thinking that they were going to default on their debt.
Han Feng stamped his feet in annoyance and said, "You actually let me run away."[
Le Xiangnai smiled and said: "The divine dragon can see its head but not its tail. How can small fish and shrimps like us be able to see everything. Let's go."
"Where to go?"
"Go back to the second floor and wait. The person just said someone is coming. I want to see who is coming."
Seeing Han Feng and Le Xiang return to their seats on the second floor, the two waiters also let out a sigh of relief. If someone ran away and the bill was not settled, they would have to deduct the monthly payment.
It was already past noon, and the diners on the second floor had almost left, leaving only a couple of them. The third dish came, which was a soup. It was served on a plate with a gilt tea cup. There were two small cups in total. The food was still there.
Before it was served, a refreshing fragrance hit his nostrils. Han Feng looked at the delicate soup and heard the clean and melodious voice of the waiter who served it, "Two cups of matsutake and abalone soup."
The two of them hadn't started yet, but they could only hear the sound of someone walking on the stairs. It was very light and dense. It looked like there were a lot of people. Han Feng and Le Xiang looked at each other and said, "Here we come!"
