Mingzhuo walked to the window, where the aroma of stewed meat filled the entire farmhouse.
She turned to him and asked, "Do you think this smells good?"
Qiao Song unconsciously swallowed: "It smells delicious, it smells so good."
Luo Wenxin waved her folding fan thoughtfully, "It does smell really good. I heard it recommended by a friend. He said that once you've tasted this flavor, you'll never forget it."
Mingzhuo chuckled: "Really? But it smells really bad to me, absolutely awful."
She didn't mean to attack the male waiter; it was just that the stench emanating from him was so strong it felt like he was completely pickled.
Comparatively speaking, the smell on the guesthouse owner was much milder.
Qiao Song and Luo Wenxin's expressions changed simultaneously.
Luo asked, "Could there be something wrong with this wild boar meat?"
Mingzhuo: "There's definitely something wrong, which is why I came to see what they're up to."
According to the guesthouse owner, wild boar meat had been gone for several months, so why are rumors still circulating and attracting so many people to the guesthouse?
On the surface, the guesthouse staff seem overwhelmed with the hassle, explaining things to customers in various ways, as if they are being very sincere.
In reality, they were intentionally screening clients, only revealing the private banquet to specific clients and inviting them to the private banquet.
As for what exactly was served at the private banquet, and why so many people went back and praised it so highly, that's debatable.
Mingzhuo simply couldn't understand how wild boar meat could be so delicious as to be addictive.
Something unusual must be going on. After she coerced and lured the guesthouse owner to the private banquet, she became even more certain that there was something wrong here, and a very big problem at that.
Mingzhuo suddenly asked, "Don't you guys think that the internet celebrity who came back looks a little strange?"
Qiao Song took out his phone, only to find that the signal was not very good and it seemed that he could not access the Internet.
Luo Wenxin remembered it clearly: "Now that you mention it, it's true. That internet celebrity used to have big eyes and relatively small ears in her photos. In the photos she posted today, her eyes are a bit squinty, and her ears have become like protruding ears, it's just like..."
“Just like a pig,” Mingzhuo replied.
Luo Wenxin was still searching for an adjective when Mingzhuo said it, and she immediately felt that the wording was very precise, it really sounded like the description!
Just then, a commotion came from the corridor outside the door.
"What are you doing? Why is the food taking so long to arrive!" a woman's shrill voice rang out. "I'm pregnant, you know? I can't go hungry!"
Upon hearing the sound, Mingzhuo quickly opened the door to the private room and went out.
The woman was clearly furious. "Your boss said he'd treat us to a free meal, which is why we came all this way! You can't discriminate against us!"
Waiter: "We really don't have any! We just have too many customers and we're short-staffed..."
"That's your problem! I need the food served right away!"
Waiter: "I'm sorry, I'll go and urge the kitchen right away."
In the instant he lowered his head, a flash of contempt and ruthlessness crossed his eyes.
Mingzhuo took in all of this and suddenly called out, "Fu Xinyue."
Fu Xinyue looked up and saw Mingzhuo, and was startled, "Ruan Mingzhuo, what are you doing here?"
Realizing something, she took two steps back and clutched her stomach, then quickly lowered her hand and gave an awkward laugh, "I'm not pregnant, I was just kidding."
Mingzhuo nodded: "I know, you're definitely not pregnant."
Fu Xinyue: "What a coincidence! By the way, tea has been served in your private room. You should go in quickly; the dishes should be served soon."
After she finished speaking, she quickly walked back to her private room and slammed the door shut.
Inside the private room, Fu Xing swallowed hard and asked eagerly, "How is it? When will they serve the food?"
Fu Xinyue said irritably, "What? What bad luck today! I actually ran into Ruan Mingzhuo! It's so annoying. She heard about my pregnancy. I wonder what kind of gossip she'll spread when she gets back. No way, I'm going to the hospital to get an abortion when I get back. You need to get the money ready, you hear me?"
Fu Xing nodded haphazardly, completely absorbed in the aroma.
Fu Xinyue felt that he was unusually obedient today, and couldn't help but soften her heart. "Honey, come a little closer, let me wipe your drool."
She pinched Fu Xing's ears. "So cute, like a little pig."
Fu Xing cooperated and imitated two pig noises, "Oink oink~"
Fu Xinyue burst into laughter.
——
The guesthouse owner not only brought out new tea, but also two plates of cold dishes.
Following them was a slightly plump middle-aged man who introduced himself as surnamed Niu and said he was the owner of a farmhouse inn.
"I am so sorry for neglecting our three distinguished guests. These two cold dishes are a special gift from me to apologize to you."
With a beaming smile, Boss Niu personally poured tea for Mingzhuo, saying, "This tea is top-grade Biluochun. Do you like it?"
Mingzhuo glanced at the tea. This time, the tea leaves were of high quality, and there was no tampering with the tea.
It's clear the boss is quite sensible; he corrected the mistake quite quickly.
Mingzhuo hesitated, wondering whether to splash Boss Niu's face with tea now or wait until all the problematic dishes were served before flipping the table.
Suddenly, a clattering sound came from the next private room, followed by a sound from the window.
Mingzhuo turned his head and saw several plates being thrown into the pond.
An exasperated voice came from next door, "You didn't come here to eat, you came here to cause trouble!"
"You dare to flip the table? I'll make you regret it!"
The moment Boss Niu noticed the disturbance, his expression changed drastically. He said to Ming Zhuo, "Sorry, there's been a bit of a problem next door. I'll go take care of it right away."
