Grandma Ye was somewhat worried.
After everyone was seated, the waiter took a menu and subconsciously handed it to Ye Panjiu.
There's no way around it; it seems like this girl is the main person in charge of the Ye family.
Ye Panjiu took the menu and read it aloud one by one, "Steamed camel hump, roasted venison, braised bear paw, beggar's chicken, four-happiness dumplings..."
"Mom, what kind of chicken is beggar's chicken? I want to eat that, and also four-happiness dumplings." Ye Taohua spoke first.
Ye Panjiu looked at the waiter and said, "One plate each of beggar's chicken and four-happiness dumplings."
Old Man Ye waved his hand, "Girl, try some roasted venison."
Ye Daniu's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.
He really felt uncomfortable listening to the menu at this restaurant.
He hasn't even seen a deer yet, but he wants to eat one.
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, and the waiter noted them down one by one.
Ye Panjiu nodded, stood up, and followed him outside.
Grandma Ye asked curiously, "Daughter, where are you going?"
Ye Panjiu smiled and said, "I'm going to wash my hands."
Grandma Ye was relieved. Shuzhou was too big and too prosperous, and she was a little nervous.
After Ye Panjiu left the private room, she went to pay the bill. She had ordered twelve dishes, five kinds of snacks, and tea, which came to a total of twenty-six taels and three hundred coins.
It's quite expensive.
This meal cost her almost five days' worth of income.
After arriving in Shuzhou, I feel that I need to speed up the process of making money.
Ye Panjiu returned to the private room.
Grandma Ye asked her worriedly, "Girl, who was that person just now? Are they planning to retaliate?"
Ye Panjiu waved her hand, "Mom, it's alright. It's not like we did anything wrong. Let's ignore him and enjoy these dishes later."
The waiter knocked on the door and came in carrying a plate of food. "Sir, the customer next door has brought over a dish of minced fish and shredded fish."
Ye Panjiu asked, "Did they say why they were giving it to you?"
The waiter shook his head.
Ye Panjiu waved her hand, "Then there's no need."
The waiter took the dishes and went out again.
After a while, he came in again. "Sir, he said he admires the young lady's composure just now."
Ye Panjiu shook her head again, "No need, no need to come in and deliver it again."
Shuzhou is not like Qingshui County; only Chuguan is the largest.
The power dynamics are complex. She dares to provoke the Qian family only because she knows they have a good relationship with Chu Guan and dare not offend them.
But if she gets close to other enemies of the Qian family, she will be the one who suffers.
The Ye family's protective shield is still very thin, making it impossible for them to cooperate equally with others.
Cooperation and tact sometimes go hand in hand.
A moment later, the waiter knocked on the door and came in.
This time, instead of serving dishes, he asked, word by word, "Sir, may I ask if you are from the Ye family of Qingshui County?"
Ye Panjiu raised an eyebrow. "Yes."
This junior brother can only be Su Yan's junior brother.
I always felt that the first nine disciples of Abbot Bai were not simple, and Abbot Bai himself was not simple either.
The waiter left.
Mrs. Sun frowned. "This meal is really no peaceful affair. The food hasn't even been served yet."
She was hungry.
Ye Panjiu comforted her, "It should be soon, I'm hungry too."
The children were all sitting obediently on the stools, which meant they were really tired.
Old Man Ye said, "There is no Lunar New Year's Eve this year. The 29th is Lunar New Year's Eve. Everyone should get a good night's sleep tonight, and we need to hurry up and prepare for the New Year tomorrow."
Ye Erniu said weakly, "Dad, let's talk about it after we've eaten. No, let's talk about it when we get up tomorrow morning."
The door was knocked and pushed open, revealing a young man dressed in a dark blue long robe with a wide belt around his waist, wearing no accessories, looking very low-key and simple.
The man smiled and bowed to the Ye family, saying, "I have long admired your names, and it is a pleasure to finally meet you today."
He glanced at Ye Panjiu a few more times without leaving a trace.
Ye Panjiu stood up and returned the greeting, "You're too kind, sir. It's our Ye family who should thank you for your empty house."
The Ye family members also stood up to return the greeting.
It turned out that this person was the owner of the house.
The man quickly waved his hand, "Everyone, please sit down. I'm Ming'er's seventh senior brother. We're all family, so there's no need to be so polite. Would you mind if I ate with you?"
Mrs. Sun was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I don't mind at all, please sit down."
So, being able to live in a house like this in Shuzhou is all thanks to Ming'er.
She frowned. Something was wrong. Tomorrow, knowing that everyone was coming to Shuzhou, they hadn't mentioned his senior brother at all.
She glanced at Ye Panjiu again, certain it was something between her younger sister and that senior brother.
Just then, the dishes were finally served.
They filed in and soon filled the table to the brim.
Old Man Ye smiled amiably, "May I ask how you are addressed, sir? Guests are the most important, please make yourselves at home."
“My surname is Duan, and my given name is Jingcheng. You can just call me Jingcheng, sir.”
Duan Jingcheng smiled and started eating.
He received a letter from his senior brother Su Yan and excitedly opened it.
After all, this senior brother is practically a legend.
Upon opening the letter, the eldest brother only asked for an empty house in Shuzhou, enough to house fifteen people. He also asked for a place next door to stay for a few days.
There was only this one thing, and it was summarized in just a few words.
There's nothing else.
But he was still very excited, as this was the first time his senior brother had asked him to do something for him!
He immediately vacated his own house and moved into the government office.
The Ye family members followed suit after he started eating.
Ye Taohua stared blankly at the dishes, unable to recognize which ones were the beggar's chicken and four-happiness dumplings she had ordered.
Whatever, I'll eat it all!
Ye Panjiu also picked up her chopsticks. In front of her was roasted venison, thin slices of which looked quite novel.
