Hang Baiqiu and Chai Yan, who turned the corner and walked away, did not know what happened to Bai Yucheng. They were still looking for a suitable place to eat.
Hang Baiqiu looked at the shops on the street and couldn't help but ask: "Who was that person just now?"
Chai Yan said: "His surname is Bai. I don't quite remember what his name is. He used to work as an errand with the current leader of the Youlong clan, but now I don't know what happened, and he has fallen into this state."
After hearing this, Hang Baiqiu nodded slowly and said, "You are quite kind and willing to give him money."
"It's not that he means well..." Chai Yan said with emotion: "It's just that I feel a little sad to see him in his current state, with his legs becoming lame... Now that I have met him, can I help him?"
A little bit is a little bit."
How did Chai Yan know that when he was in Yaozhou City, it was Bai Yucheng who hired the killer Han Jian to kill him, but a few months later, he would actually give him money? It can only be said that things are unpredictable!
Hang Baiqiu asked: "Wasn't his leg lame before?"
"Not lame." Chai Yan shook his head.
"It seems that he must have committed something big and was beaten lame!" Hang Baiqiu said with certainty.
Chai Yan shook his head and said: "I don't know...forget it, it's all over, let's not mention him anymore, let's think about what to eat."
Hang Baiqiu was already hungry. He had been chirping for a while along the way. Hearing Chai Yan say this, the feeling of wanting to eat became even stronger.
Hang Baiqiu looked up and looked ahead, suddenly pointed at a restaurant and said: "I've decided, let's go to that restaurant! I don't want to wander around hungry anymore..."
Chai Yan looked in the direction pointed and couldn't help but grin: "Ha, which one is it?"
Chai Yan had such a reaction because the restaurant Hang Baiqiu mentioned was Qujia Restaurant.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Hang Baiqiu asked slightly surprised.
Chai Yan shook his head and said: "No problem, that one is pretty good, let's go!"
After that, the two of them walked to Qujia Restaurant.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, a waiter came over to greet them and led the two of them to sit down at an empty table.
"My dear guests, what would you like to eat?"
After the waiter finished speaking, he gestured to the wall next to him, where many menu signs were hung.
"What do you want to eat?" Hang Baiqiu asked Chai Yan.
"Order what you like, I can do it." Chai Yan said with a smile.
Hang Baiqiu didn't refuse, and immediately ordered two dishes, one soup, and a small pot of rice wine, which was enough.
After the waiter left singing the names of the dishes loudly, Chai Yan asked: "Why don't you order more dishes? You don't have to save me money."
"I'm not a pig, how can I eat so much?" Hang Baiqiu said disdainfully.
Chai Yan smiled and began to look at everything in the restaurant.
"What are you looking at? Is there anything special about this place?" Hang Baiqiu thought everything was ordinary.
Chai Yan shook his head and said: "It's nothing special, I just took a look, because I've been here once before..."
Hang Baiqiu immediately said: "So you've been here before? Then you asked me to order, what if it doesn't taste good..."
"I didn't come here that time to eat, but because of other things..." Chai Yan said and smiled.
Then Chai Yan told Cheng Jiu's "glorious deeds" about how he failed to get a single penny on credit and even got into a fight with someone. Hang Baiqiu was so happy when he heard this that he almost laughed out loud.
"That Cheng Jiu actually made a scene in a restaurant just for a penny. It's really quite acceptable!" The more Hang Baiqiu thought about it, the more funny he became.
Chai Yan nodded helplessly: "Who says it's not the case?"
While the two were chatting, a woman came down from the second floor. Because the woman's movements were hurried, Chai Yan's eyes immediately noticed her.
At the same time, Chai Yan also recognized that the woman was the shopkeeper Qu of the restaurant he met that night.
"Who is she?" Hang Baiqiu's eyes were also drawn over.
Chai Yan said: "The shopkeeper of this restaurant is named Qu."
"Female shopkeeper!" Hang Baiqiu was a little surprised.
After Qu Ran'er came downstairs, she hurriedly entered the counter. At this time, there was a man at the counter, who was Qu Ran'er's new love, Zhu Hao Ran.
Zhu Haoran was taking a nap when someone suddenly woke her up.
"What time of year is this? Why are you so sleepy?" It was Qu Ran'er's voice.
Zhu Haoran woke up, rubbed his eyes, and said: "It's not because you tortured me last night. I'm exhausted..."
With that said, Zhu Haoran touched her waist.
Qu Ran'er's face turned red immediately, she pushed Zhu Haoran and scolded: "Bah! What are you talking about? You're not afraid of being heard by the guests..."
Zhu Haoran straightened up and looked around, shook his head and said, "No."
Qu Ran'er didn't want to get entangled with him on this topic, so she changed her subject and said, "Let's get down to business. I asked you to settle the accounts just now. How did you calculate them? Why didn't you include the two jars of wine and the two extra dishes in the private room upstairs?
?You want to screw me to death?"
"Didn't it count?" Zhu Haoran immediately looked through the account book, then scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "I'm sorry, sister, I forgot it accidentally! Hehe..."
Qu Ran'er originally wanted to teach him a few words, but Zhu Hao Ran acted so stupidly, Qu Ran'er couldn't bear it anymore, so she had no choice but to say: "You idiot, if you do it again, don't come into my house again."
Door!"
"No, no, there will never be a next time!" Zhu Haoran hurriedly admitted his mistake, and then cheered up and said: "Sister, don't worry, I will recalculate today's accounts now to ensure that there are no mistakes!"
Only then did Qu Raner smile: "Well, that's pretty much it..."
Then, Zhu Haoran calculated the accounts seriously, while Qu Raner just watched for a short while before going out to greet the guests.
As soon as Qu Ran'er walked away, Zhu Haoran's shoulders slumped. Not only did she stop calculating, she also let out a long yawn, and her eyelids drooped halfway again.
Since meeting Bai Yucheng last night, the relationship between Qu Ran'er and Zhu Haoran has heated up rapidly. Now Zhu Haoran not only lives in Qu Ran'er's house openly, but Qu Ran'er is often invited to the restaurant to help out.
.
Although Zhu Haoran said he was very willing, in fact he was very unhappy deep down, which was why the scene just happened.
Qu Ran'er didn't know Zhu Haoran's true side. She was still greeting the guests in the restaurant.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, how is today's dish? Is it to your liking?"
"Second Master Liu, I heard that you are about to have a grandson. Congratulations..."
"Brother Li, have you eaten? You guys go slowly and come here more often..."
Because after the "beggars' siege incident", Qujia Restaurant's business on weekdays was not even a little bit worse than at the beginning, so in order to build a good relationship with her customers, retain and win more returning customers, she
Almost every table will go to toast, chat, and say some compliments and flattery.
Although this was very tiring, it still had some effect. With her efforts, Qujia Restaurant gradually showed signs of recovery.
Soon, Qu Ran'er came to Chai Yan's table. When she saw that Chai Yan's table was still empty and no food was served, she asked the waiter loudly: "What's going on? Why haven't the guests at this table been served yet?"
?Be careful, I will deduct your wages!"
It’s not that I will really deduct the wages of the staff, but if I say this, the guests will feel more comfortable.
Then, Qu Ran'er apologized to Chai Yan and Hang Baiqiu: "I'm sorry, two guests. There are many guests at noon, and the kitchen will be a little busy..."
"It's okay." Chai Yan looked at Qu Ran'er and smiled slightly, shaking his head gently.
"Thank you for your understanding, sir." Qu Ran'er said with an apologetic smile: "You two gentlemen, please take a sip of tea first. I'll make a plate of melon seeds for you to eat first. The food and wine will be served soon..."
Qu Ran'er no longer remembers Chai Yan, so Chai Yan naturally won't take the initiative to tell him. It would be more comfortable to be a stranger.
After Qu Ran'er said that, she turned around and left. After a while, a plate of melon seeds was brought to her, she apologized again and went back to her business.
Hang Baiqiu pinched a melon seed and after eating it, he whispered to Chai Yan: "It seems that this man is very good at doing business. Why is he not willing to give Cheng Jiu even a penny of credit?"
"About this question, you have to ask Cheng Jiu!" Chai Yan replied with a curled lips and a shrug, then he grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started eating them too.
