Chapter 304 Distinguished Guests

Yu Qinghuan walked down from the second floor, caught a glimpse of this scene, and gave Sang Ru a thumbs up in her heart. This girl is getting smarter and smarter.

Cheng Gongjin is a living signboard. He is placed in the most conspicuous position. Whenever someone who knows him passes by, they will come in and say a few words to him.

You know, she begged and pleaded for half a month before Cheng Gongjin agreed to come on the opening day of Fuyanlou.

Yunniang didn't recognize the court officials and had no idea who the three people who had just entered were. Just as she was about to go over to greet them, Yu Qinghuan stopped her, "Go watch over the back and prepare the dishes. I think there will be many more guests coming soon."

Yunniang was surprised. How did Boss Yu know that there would be customers coming soon?

Just as she was about to ask a question, she saw two people really walk in, sit down at the table next to the three guests, and start talking to them.

She was not stupid and guessed that among these three, one must be the distinguished guest that Yu Qinghuan had just mentioned.

Everyone else came for this distinguished guest.

Seeing these people's extraordinary demeanor, Yunniang immediately smiled happily, "I'll go right away!"

Yu Qinghuan walked towards Cheng Gongjin. Since the current cabinet minister had come, she had to personally entertain him.

She smiled brightly and asked, "What would the three distinguished guests like to eat?"

Master Gu frowned, wanting a private room, and looked up impatiently, "Can't we change--"

The moment he saw Yu Qinghuan, his words got stuck in his throat, his eyes lit up. What a beautiful woman, like a lotus emerging from the water, but she looked a little familiar. It seemed like I had seen her somewhere before.

Yang Jing couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. He had never seen such a beautiful girl before. He even forgot that Cheng Gongjin, whom he had admired for many years, was sitting in front of him.

"Does the girl have any recommendations?"

This scene fell into the eyes of Cheng Gongjin who was standing aside. His expression was indifferent, but his hand holding the teacup tightened slightly.

But Yu Qinghuan hadn't noticed yet, and smiled at the two of them, "Today we have three signature dishes: Red Dust Drunken Fairy Duck, Crimson Clothes Stepping on Snow, and Emerald White Jade Soup."

Master Gu waved his hand generously in front of the beauty, "One for each of you!"

Yu Qinghuan narrowed her beautiful eyes and kindly reminded him, "Dear guest, would you please take a look at the prices of the dishes?"

Yang Jing was about to say that three people couldn't eat so much, but Lord Gu said, "Don't look, I have plenty of money, just serve me the food and two pots of good wine."

He brought several hundred taels of silver with him today. Could it be that he couldn't afford just three dishes?

Yu Qinghuan raised the corner of his mouth, "Please wait a moment, my dear guest."

As expected of someone brought by Cheng Gongjin, he was very generous and ordered all three dishes.

When she left, she and Cheng Gongjin looked at each other and she raised her eyebrows at Cheng Gongjin.

Seeing this, the table next to them also ordered three signature dishes.

After a while, the waiter brought some side dishes and two pots of good wine.

"Three gentlemen, today is the day we open our restaurant. Here are some small dishes for you three. If you like them, please come often in the future!"

Lord Gu took a glance and saw that it was just a small plate, and he couldn't tell what it was. This restaurant was really stingy and was definitely not as good as Xifeng Tower.

But he was already hungry, so he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it into his mouth. The sour, spicy and sweet taste immediately stimulated his taste buds.

Yang Jing's eyes lit up at the side. "It's cucumber. How are you cooking it? It's quite delicious."

Hearing this, Cheng Gongjin also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece, chewed it slowly, and found it was indeed not bad.

There were four pieces on the plate. Yang Jing went to pick up the last piece, but before his chopsticks even touched it, Lord Gu picked it up and put it into his mouth.

At this point, after eating two pieces, he still felt it was not enough, so he immediately called someone over and said, "This dish is not enough, give us another serving."

Sang Ru smiled and said, "Sir, this is a complimentary dish for today's opening. One per table, no extra."

Mr. Gu didn't care. "I'll pay for it. Just give me an extra portion."

If Yu Qinghuan hadn't instructed that only one portion could be served per table, Sang Ru would have agreed.

Although she didn't understand why, she still followed her daughter's words and declined politely, "I'm really sorry, but the rules of this building are that only one portion can be served per table."

Lord Gu's forehead twitched. What kind of shabby restaurant is this? How can they have such rules?!

He was about to explode when the waiter came to serve the dishes. The overwhelming aroma immediately silenced him.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm serving you the food now. Jiang Yi Ta Xue."

Because of the delicious side dish just now, Yang Jing's appetite was now very whetted. As soon as the dish was served, he immediately picked up the chopsticks. The so-called "crimson clothes stepping on snow" was actually braised pork with winter bamboo shoots.

He picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into his mouth. The meat was tender, fat but not greasy, and very delicious. Paired with the winter bamboo shoots, it tasted really good.

Lord Gu was surprised. He had never tasted braised pork with such flavor before, so he immediately ate a few more mouthfuls of rice.

He couldn't help but say to Yang Jing beside him, "I never thought that the chef of this newly opened restaurant has such amazing skills. This braised pork is even better than the one made by the imperial chef in the palace."

After tasting the delicious food, Yang Jing said nothing and silently picked up piece after piece, fearing that the food would be gone.

Cheng Gongjin doesn't like meat, but at this moment, he couldn't help but try two more pieces. It was indeed quite good.

So, when Mr. Gu was about to pick up the second piece of meat, he saw that the plate was empty, with only residual juice left, and the smile froze on his face.

He immediately glared at Yang Jing. Is this the reincarnation of a starving ghost?

Just then, the waiter brought the second dish, "Red Dust Drunken Immortal Duck."

Mr. Gu picked up his chopsticks immediately and found that the duck skin was crispy, the duck meat was tender and smooth, and the taste was very good!

While eating, Yang Jing counted in his mind. There were only five pieces of duck meat in this plate...which means that one person could only eat one piece.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw that Lord Gu had already stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the second bite.

He immediately became anxious and reached out his hand before swallowing the food in his mouth, but at this time, Cheng Gongjin also stretched out his chopsticks.

As their eyes met, Yang Jing swallowed the duck meat and thought for a while. It was just a piece of meat. The most important thing today was to get to know Cheng Gongjin. So he smiled and gave the meat to Cheng Gongjin, "Please."

I thought to myself: I’ll just ask someone to bring another portion later.

Cheng Gongjin responded indifferently, picked up the last piece with a dignified movement, and put it into his mouth.

He ate slowly and leisurely, and his every move exuded nobility.

Yang Jing couldn't help but sigh in his heart: He is truly worthy of being called Lord Cheng, a role model for students all over the world, look at his demeanor.

He immediately called out, "Bring another serving of that Drunken Immortal Duck dish."

The guests at the table next to them, who had come for Cheng Gongjin, also shouted and wanted to order another one.

Sang Ru came over again, with an apologetic smile on her face, "Sir, I'm really sorry, but according to the rules of this building, each table can only order one of each dish on that day."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Lord Gu frowned, "What kind of rules are these? The West Wind Tower across the street doesn't even have these rules."
