Chapter 195 Snails Sold Out
Sun Shaolan, who was being pinched, gasped and said, "Cousin, could you pinch me a little more gently? I'm speaking very well, right? Business isn't always smooth sailing. Even if we can't become popular this time, we still have a long way to go, right?"
"Sister Xiao, look, am I right?" Sun Shaolan looked at Xiao Jiuyue for help, and her body moved involuntarily towards Xiao Jiuyue. She had to stay away from her cousin to avoid being pinched by her again!
"Auspicious words, I want to hear something more auspicious." Tang Tian couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth as she watched Sun Shaolan getting farther and farther away from her. She didn't use much effort, so why did Sun Shaolan act like she was a monster?
"Don't worry, cousin. The candy shop will definitely let everyone know, and everyone will definitely go to buy snacks." Sun Shaolan said immediately: "Anyway, I wish I could ask the maid to go out and buy snacks for me every day."
Ever since she started eating the snacks from the candy shop, she has fallen in love with them and has no interest in snacks from other places anymore.
"That's more like it." Tang Tian grinned and looked at Xiao Jiuyue and said, "Sister Xiao, it's a good thing we came early, otherwise, I'm afraid there wouldn't even be a seat left."
Tang Tian quietly stuck her head out and saw that the first and second floors of Fengchun Building were crowded with people. The locations in the private rooms were okay, but other places, such as the corridors and the hall that had a direct view of the stage, were crowded.
It's not even dinner time yet, but the place is already full.
"If you come later, I'll keep a seat for you." Xiao Jiuyue sipped her tea. Even if she didn't look at the sales today, she knew that business would be booming.
"Sister Xiao is still the best." Tang Tian grinned, revealing her white teeth and asked, "Sister Xiao, do you have all the signature dishes of Lancang County? I want a portion of them all."
"Boiled cabbage and braised pig's trotters." Sun Shaolan had been eyeing these two dishes for a long time. She came here today just for these two dishes. No, there was also the snails she ate yesterday. The snail meat mixed with the sauce tasted so delicious.
The stir-fried loaches were different from the muddy ones she had eaten before.
Not to mention the pan-fried small crucian carp, which was a taste she had never tasted before.
"Are you sure your stomachs can hold it?" Xiao Jiuyue raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on their stomachs, listening to them chattering about wanting to order this dish and that dish. They couldn't possibly order a whole table of dishes, right?
"It's okay, I can eat more." Tang Tian patted her belly and said, "I didn't eat breakfast on purpose. Besides, if I can't finish it, don't I still have maids and servants?"
"Sister Xiao, Miss Mengzhi, when will the singing start?" Tang Tian kept looking at the stage. It was a hot summer day, but sitting in the boat hall, the breeze from the pond blew by, and it was not hot at all.
"Noon, before dinner." Xiao Jiuyue replied and asked Lianxin to bring some sour plum soup to relieve the heat.
The icy cold sour plum soup has become a favorite of Tang Tian and Sun Shaolan again. If they were not afraid of not having enough stomach to eat delicious food later, they would probably be eager to fill their stomachs with sour plum soup.
Time passed little by little, and Fengchun Tower was crowded with people, but the order was good and there was no chaos. It was not until Miss Mengzhi came on stage that Xiao Jiuyue realized that Manager Zeng was still very foresighted.
Many diners came for Miss Mengzhi.
As soon as Miss Mengzhi stepped onto the stage, the cheers and noises from the stage were endless. She whispered in Lianxin's ear, "Remind Shopkeeper Zeng to be careful."
"Yes." Lianxin responded and went there immediately.
Xiao Jiuyue looked back at the huge crowd in Fengchun Tower. More people is a good thing, but the premise is that everything is safe and smooth.
The Drunken Concubine is a classic piece of music. Xiao Jiuyue didn’t know much about it before, but after watching it carefully today, she felt the charm of opera and the charm of Miss Meng Zhi. Her voice is truly heavenly.
Next time, I will invite a troupe of opera singers to Fu'an Village to perform for my grandmother and mother.
After the song was over, Lian Xin came back: "Miss, the shopkeeper Zeng said: Please rest assured, we have hired a lot of guards today to ensure that the restaurant is safe."
"Yeah." Xiao Jiuyue nodded slightly. When the dishes were served one by one, Tang Tian said, "Sister Xiao, I didn't expect there to be so many people in the restaurant. The dishes were served quite quickly."
"My dream love soup!" Tang Tian watched the boiling water being poured on the cabbage, and the cabbage looked like a blooming flower. The cabbage flower seemed to bloom right to the tip of her heart.
She couldn't wait to take a sip of the soup and couldn't help smacking her lips: "This is the taste."
"Shao Lan, how is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? This soup is delicious, right?" Tang Tian was concentrating on tasting the soup and didn't hear what Sun Shaolan said. When she looked up, she saw that Sun Shaolan had even taken away the plate.
"Cousin, you've eaten here so many times. I'll eat more today." Sun Shaolan said as she drank the soup in big gulps. The way she put it into her mouth so quickly, it looked as if someone was trying to snatch it away.
"Shao Lan, I've been thinking about this for a long time." Tang Tian took the spoon and poured the soup directly into the plate to drink.
Sun Shaolan sped up her pace. The two cousins were almost fighting over a plate of soup.
Xiao Jiuyue was stunned. She asked Lianxin to order another bowl, no, two bowls of soup.
She also likes this delicious boiled cabbage very much.
After the meal, Sun Shaolan and Tang Tian both tacitly saved the snails for last. They ate the snails while listening to the opera, feeling extremely happy.
At Fengchunlou, gradually, everyone was attracted by the aroma of the food, and they praised every dish highly, especially when two handsome men were sitting on a small platform in the middle of the lobby, which was higher than everyone else, and were eating snails. This made everyone even more curious.
At lunchtime, the opera stopped and everyone in the hall was staring at the two men. Although their hands were greasy, they ate in a very handsome manner, which was pleasing to the eye.
Especially the aroma of the snails, which wafted into everyone's nose from time to time. In addition, the two men ate with gusto, so many people also ordered a serving of snails.
"Waiter, add another pound of snails."
"Waiter, I want to add three pounds of snails."
“…”
If you add snails, there will be an endless stream of snails served on the table, spicy, fresh and fragrant, which makes everyone praise it.
The commotion in the lobby had also been seen by the people in the private rooms. At first, many people thought it was unbecoming to have their hands covered in grease. But as the aroma began to waft in, every table in the lobby ordered snails, and some tried them...
In the private rooms, each table started to add snails.
At noon, there were not many people in other restaurants. Most of them were people having tea or taking a rest. But Fengchunlou was still packed. There were waves of people coming to eat. Some came to listen to opera, some to eat snails, and some to try Fengchunlou's dishes.
"Miss Xiao, we sold 500 kilograms of snails today." In the evening, Shopkeeper Zeng was stunned when he saw the empty snails.
