Mo Xi was pulled a few steps by Li Yuehua. He looked back at the two yuan on the table and thought to himself, "I only drank two cups of bland tea and it cost two yuan. Things in this provincial capital are too expensive."
"Oh, you brought a little follower this time?" Dingxiang said with a smile. "She's quite a beautiful woman."
"Moxi, call her Aunt Ding." Li Yuehua glanced at Moxi. "Dingxiang is my best friend."
Hello, Aunt Ding!
"Get in the car." Dingxiang nodded.
Li Yuehua opened the back door and let Moxi get in first.
"Yuehua, sit in the front, let's chat," Dingxiang said.
Along the way, the two talked without anyone asking or saying where they were going. Dingxiang simply led them to the food street.
"Oh my god, why did you bring us here?" Li Yuehua exclaimed in surprise, then took out her notebook and opened it. "We were supposed to go here first. Look at me, I was so busy talking after we got in the car that I forgot to tell you where we were going."
"Oh dear, I'll take you there after you've eaten," Dingxiang said warmly. "I've already made a reservation here. You're lucky; any later and you wouldn't have had the chance. There's always a queue at this restaurant."
"Well, Moxi, how about we eat first, then go?" Li Yuehua glanced at her watch. "Going to the Jiang family at this time isn't good either, it's mealtime, don't you think?"
"Alright then!" Mo Xi nodded. Seeing the two people in front of her open the car door and get out, she also reached out to open the car door, but no matter how she tried, she couldn't open it. In the end, Li Yuehua opened the car door for her from the outside.
Moxi felt like a complete country bumpkin, having never seen or experienced anything, and finding everything strange and wonderful.
At first glance, the entire street is lined with restaurants, only the names and decor styles are different.
The name "Grand Hyatt Hotel" was secretly memorized by Mo Xi, so that she could tell her sister-in-law about what she had seen and heard when she got back. If the landlady hadn't brought her here, how could she have had the opportunity to eat at such a high-class place?
Moxi acted like a country bumpkin in every way, except when he was eating, his expression was very calm, without any exaggerated or surprised expression, and he didn't even say it was delicious.
Really?
Dingxiang looked at Moxi and thought to herself, "This country girl, eating such delicious food, she doesn't show any expression at all."
Seeing Dingxiang staring at him, Moxi raised his hand and touched his face. "Is there something dirty on my face?"
"Oh. No." Dingxiang snapped out of her daze and quickly picked up a piece of chicken and put it in Moxi's bowl. "Eat more, this is cooked by a master chef from Kyoto, most people don't even have the chance to taste it."
Li Yuehua understood, but she smiled without saying a word.
"Thank you, Aunt Ding!" Mo Xi said, taking a bite of chicken. "Even the chefs in Kyoto are nothing special; they're not as good as my sister-in-law's cooking."
Dingxiang looked displeased. "Don't underestimate this restaurant. We arrived early, but look outside, there's already a queue. People often queue until late at night just to get a bite to eat here."
Mersey looked out the window and saw that there were indeed people queuing up.
"Dingxiang, don't be angry. Moxi doesn't think you've been unfriendly; she just thinks the food here isn't as good as her sister-in-law's cooking," Li Yuehua said mysteriously. "If you don't believe me, come to my restaurant and try it, and you'll understand."
"What's going on?"
"Oh, Moxi's sister-in-law is my goddaughter." Li Yuehua says this to everyone now. Although Su Xiaonuan hasn't admitted it yet, she has decided that she is her goddaughter. "She is especially good at cooking. My restaurant has ten signature dishes and two desserts, all taught by my goddaughter. The business is even better than here. Passing cars stop and line up to wait for a meal."
"Really?" Dingxiang became interested. "Is it even better than what this chef makes?"
“Mm.” Li Yuehua nodded. “You’ll have a comparison after you eat it, so don’t blame Moxi. That child is honest and won’t lie.”
"Now that you mention it, you really should go and try it."
"Then after I finish my business, we'll take your car back."
"good."
"Wow, I can get a ride!" Moxi clapped her hands excitedly. "Thank you, Aunt Ding."
She was thinking of saving the cost of the return trip so she could buy some gifts for her family later.
Having been poor for so long, she still couldn't bear to spend her fifty yuan lavishly.
"Look how happy you are." Li Yuehua picked out a piece of pig's trotter for Moxi. "Eat more, it's good for your skin."
Moxi looked at the white pig's trotter and hesitated to take a bite.
"Dip it in this sauce." Li Yuehua handed a small dish of condiments to Moxi, while she ladled out a bowl of thick, white pig's trotter soup for herself.
Dingxiang and Li Yuehua both only drank pig's trotter soup.
The tender pig's trotters dipped in the sauce tasted really good. She ate several pieces in one go, and after finishing, she drank a bowl of soup, smacking her lips and saying, "I'll ask my sister-in-law to make this dish when we get back."
"It's no trouble at all!" Li Yuehua said. "You don't need your sister-in-law to cook. If you want to eat, just come to my shop."
"It's more cost-effective for my sister-in-law to cook it; I can't afford to eat at your restaurant."
"You little brat, did I say I was going to charge you money?"
"But I can't just freeload!"
"Why are you speaking like a family member? Don't forget, you're my goddaughter's sister-in-law. How can you say you're freeloading?"
Seeing Li Yuehua trying so hard to please a country girl, Dingxiang also started to take it seriously. She and Li Yuehua were best friends, and neither of them were casual about making friends. The people they made friends with were definitely reliable.
