In addition to these common or uncommon delicacies, of course, the most eye-catching signs are filled with the most signature dishes of Bianyifang.
Green pepper and potato shreds, big bone stewed potato chunks, fried potato chips...
At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and the countless wooden signs swayed gently with the breeze. This picture was full of mysterious atmosphere.
Several scholars stared blankly, and then their eyes fell on the wall. There was a huge map of the capital hanging on the wall.
This map is too detailed. Every street and alley nearby is clearly visible. It is even filled with dense handwriting and red lines.
The scholars stared at the red lines for a long time, and then they understood in their hearts that they would never get lost along the streets and alleys along these red lines.
So several scholars became even more confused and began to wonder what the map was for.
There was another moment of silence.
After a long time, a brave scholar rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the beautiful woman who was doing the abacus at the counter.
The beauty in the light green skirt and hairpin showed him a dignified and beautiful smile, and said softly: "Whatever this guest wants to eat, just choose."
Looking at the beauty, she has a beautiful face, holding an abacus in her hand, and talking to the waiter.
Several talented people were numb.
What is going on?
After a long time, one of the tall and thin scholars boldly tried to say: "I see that this girl is kind-hearted. May I ask if this girl's surname is Yue?"
The beauty showed a charming but not rude smile and said noncommittally: "Do you want to have a meal, sir?"
She didn't admit it, but she didn't deny it either. The scholar looked at her charming face and nodded instinctively.
That's right, it's Yue Xuan'er!
She was once a famous courtesan in the capital and a first-rate Yangzhou thin horse, but now she is working as the female shopkeeper in a restaurant opened by an unknown person.
So the scholar felt a little sad and sighed softly: "I am a beautiful lady, but what can I do..."
But the words are not finished yet.
The tough men around him looked over with cold eyes, frightening the powerless scholar.
I saw a sturdy middle-aged man shaking the flesh on his arm and said in a muffled voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you want to eat?"
That fierce look seemed to say, what nonsense are you talking about if you don't order food?
The scholar was frightened and trembled again, and said hurriedly: "Have a meal... I have a meal!"
The tough men nodded with satisfaction, their faces looking better.
I saw one of them, a man with an extremely thick build and a face full of flesh, grabbed a strange pen on the table and stuffed it with a piece of wood.
The strong man said solemnly: "You can choose what to eat."
The scholar took the strange pen made of charcoal and hurriedly apologized: "Hey, that's good."
After another moment.
Several scholars were like dumb birds, standing on the wooden signs with the names of the dishes written on them, looking at the various dishes on them in a daze.
How should I order this dish...
At this moment, footsteps were heard from upstairs.
Suddenly, a young man dressed in brocade and a beautiful lady dressed as a maid came down the wooden stairs from the second floor.
The maid was also very pretty. Although she was still young and a little immature, she was very beautiful and looked like a beautiful woman.
Under the blank gazes of several scholars, the young man walked up to a few people, and then coughed lightly: "Cough."
Several scholars woke up with a start, and Shen Lie showed them a bright smile with neat white teeth.
Looking at these sour scholars, Shen Lie clasped his fists, then smiled brightly and said: "Several talented scholars... what would you like to eat?"
The scholars looked at his sunny smile and his luxurious clothes, and hurriedly saluted according to the scholar's etiquette.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, um... let's have one boiled white meat, one stir-fried lamb tripe... three big bowls of fragrant rice."
As a scholar hesitantly ordered his meal.
Shen Lie then smiled at Yun'er and said, "Write it down."
The dishes are ordered.
Shen Lie then smiled and asked: "May I ask where these gentlemen live?"
Upon hearing this, several scholars began to be confused again. Why do they have to register for household registration when they go out to have a meal? Is it possible that this is still a black shop?
So the few of them looked at me, I looked at you, and then looked at the tough warriors who were waiting for them with evil intentions.
The leading scholar trembled and could only say coyly: "I'll be staying at... the Yuelai Inn opposite the Imperial College."
As soon as he heard this address, Shen Lie suddenly said: "It turns out it's a few Gongsheng masters, disrespectful, disrespectful."
Isn't it Gongsheng who lives opposite the Imperial College?
What is Gongsheng?
In this era of imperial examinations, the imperial court selected those with excellent grades or qualifications from the prefectural, prefecture, and county scholars who failed to pass the imperial examination and were promoted to study at the Imperial College in the capital.
Such people are called Gongsheng, which means to contribute talents to the emperor. In the Ming Dynasty, Gongsheng has annual tribute, tribute selection, tribute tribute and tribute payment.
After becoming a Gongsheng student, you can theoretically become an official. Pu Songling was a "Sui Gongsheng student" and later received the false title of "Confucian Discipline".
Of course, this is a high-sounding statement. In fact, most of the truly talented scholars disdain to enter the Imperial College as a tribute student.
How can I become a tribute student? In addition to passing the examination and becoming a scholar, if I want to enter the Imperial College...
Then donate money to the court!
What are the things in the Imperial College? The naughty sons of the rich and powerful, the scholars who really failed to pass the examination, and the stupid sons of the landlords.
These are all rich people!
As soon as Shen Lie heard that these students were Gong students, his eyes immediately lit up, and he smiled hurriedly and kindly: "Chenghui is one cent and two cents, and the food delivery fee is ten cents. Will it be delivered to Yuelai Inn before noon?"
Several Gongsheng students nodded stupidly, and immediately wanted to regret it when they heard the price.
But those tough warriors not far away stared at them again, and even rolled up the hem of their robes, revealing the embroidered spring knives hidden in their clothes.
Several Gongsheng students understood immediately when they saw the Xiuchundao. With shaking hands, they quickly took out the money bag from their arms, took out the broken silver and copper coins and handed them over.
Shen Lie took the money with a smile, then handed it to his beautiful adopted sister, and said softly: "Xuan'er...change."
I saw Miss Xuan'er put down her abacus and smiled sweetly at the Gongsheng students. Her smile looked very beautiful, but in the eyes of the Gongsheng men, it looked like a beautiful snake.
After another moment.
Under the gaze of hundreds of onlookers, several Gongsheng masters walked out in a daze, empty-handed when they went in, and still empty-handed when they came out.
As the air became quiet again, someone finally couldn't help but ask: "May I ask some brothers, what is going on here?"
There was a trace of confusion in the eyes of several Gongsheng students. They looked at each other for a few times and then touched their heads. When the words came to their lips, they didn't know where to start.
It took a long time before a middle-aged Gongsheng student said angrily: "A black shop."
The onlookers suddenly realized, looked at the open dark door in fear, shrank their necks and left quickly.
