Chapter 23 I haven't eaten braised pork for a long time



Shen Qi waited patiently in Song's Tailor Shop for half an hour before Song Lin finally took out a set of clothes.

Although it is just a simple T-shirt and trousers, it is extremely comfortable to wear, which shows that Song Lin's craftsmanship is still very good.

In Song Lin's words, this set of clothes is only for temporary emergency use. After picking up her carefully tailored clothes at noon tomorrow, this set can be thrown away.

Afterwards, Song Lin sent Shen Qi and Shen Yu out. A waiter had already driven a Mercedes-Benz G over.

After leaving Songji Tailor Shop, the two headed straight for Baixiang Tower, led by Shen Yu.

Baixianglou has a complete range of dishes, delicious taste and attentive service. It is very famous in Jincheng. Many people from upper-class circles like to dine here, so the threshold for diners is also very high. If you don’t have a net worth of tens of millions, you dare not come here to consume easily.

Even if you have a net worth of over 10 million, you still have to be humble when you come here to eat, because having a net worth of 10 million only puts you at the bottom of the table in Baixianglou.

As soon as the Mercedes-Benz G-Class stopped, a doorman came up to help park the car, and the receptionist took Shen Qi and Shen Yu into the hotel.

Shen Yu's best friend is named Zhao Xiaowan, who is also quite famous in Jincheng. However, because the strength of the Zhao family in Jincheng is much weaker than that of the Shen family, she is suppressed by Shen Yu in all aspects.

As soon as Shen Qi and Shen Yu entered the restaurant, Zhao Xiaowan stood up to greet them, but when she saw Shen Qi, her face drooped.

"Chen Yu, who is this? Didn't they say it was just the two of us sisters today? Why is there someone else here?"

Shen Yu showed an embarrassed look and lowered his voice and said, "This is my second grandfather Shen Qi. He just came from the countryside. My old man specifically asked me to take good care of him. I just took him to Songji Tailor to make a set of clothes. I didn't have time, so I had to bring him here."

When Zhao Xiaowan heard that Shen Qi came from the countryside, there was obvious disgust in her eyes, but for the sake of Shen Yu's face, she couldn't get angry.

After all, the Zhao family and the Shen family are very close, and they rely on the Shen family in many aspects. Even when the Shen family was in trouble, the Zhao family did not completely cut off ties with the Shen family. So after the Shen family turned around today, the Zhao family was the first to get the news.

However, the Zhao family did not receive much information. They only knew that the Shen family had made a comeback, but they really had no idea how it had happened. So when Zhao Xiaowan had dinner with Shen Yu this time, she also had the intention of finding out some information.

Now that the Shen family has returned to its position as the richest family in Jincheng, the Zhao family also has to try to please them. Zhao Xiaowan naturally doesn't dare to make trouble because of Shen Qi's identity, but she can't help but look down on him from the bottom of her heart.

"Well, since it's your, um, elder, let's eat together."

Zhao Xiaowan couldn't help but look at Shen Qi again. She always felt that this matter was a bit absurd. Shen Qi, who looked only in his twenties, was actually Shen Yu's second grandfather?

She pulled Shen Yu and whispered, "Is he really you, Second Grandpa? You didn't lie to me, did you?"

Shen Yu said angrily: “If I wanted to lie to you, I wouldn’t tell you!”

Zhao Xiaowan immediately understood and stopped talking about this topic. She called the waiter and started taking orders.

Baixianglou is one of the best restaurants in Jincheng. Only the upper class people in Jincheng are qualified to come here. The dishes are naturally exquisite, and even the menu is very beautiful, which makes people feel very high-end at first glance.

Zhao Xiaowan pushed the menu to Shen Yu and asked Shen Yu to order. Shen Yu thought of the jade pendant Shen Qi gave her, and thought of Shen Qi's performance in Song Ji Tailor, so she pushed the menu in front of Shen Qi.

"Second Grandpa, order whatever you want."

Without even looking at the menu, Shen Qi said, "I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Give me some braised pork."

When Zhao Xiaowan heard this, she felt a little disdainful again.

As expected, he is from the countryside and can't even eat meat. He finally comes to Baixianglou, but he doesn't know how to order some dishes he has never seen before, and he even wants to eat braised pork.

Is this how country people think?

However, what she didn't know was that Shen Qi hadn't eaten meat for nearly eighty years, and this was a good opportunity for him to recall the taste of braised pork.

With Shen Qi's cultivation level, it wouldn't be a problem even if he didn't eat. However, since he came here to relax, he had to be sociable and not be too conspicuous.

Shen Yu was a little confused. The jade pendant was very valuable, and the robe on Shen Qi was also priceless. Even if he was in the countryside, he couldn't even eat meat, right?

According to her understanding, Xia State has put a lot of effort into poverty alleviation, and there are no small villages where people can't even get enough food. So, is Shen Qi lying?

The waiter next to him looked embarrassed.

"Hello sir, we don't have braised pork here because many customers complained that it was too greasy and not in line with modern health concepts, so we removed it. Would you like to change it?"

Shen Qi frowned, but before he could say anything, Shen Yu's face fell first.

"What? Can't we order it if it's not on the menu? Do you guys at Baixianglou not know how to make braised pork, or are we out of pork?"

What a joke, today she brought Shen Qi out, no matter what Shen Qi's identity is, no matter whether she is willing to accept it or not, since he is out, Shen Qi represents the face of the Shen family. If they can't even eat a single dish in Baixianglou, then what face do their Shen family have?

I didn’t expect that the waiters at Baixianglou would make such a low-level mistake!

Seeing Shen Yu angry, the waiter realized his mistake and apologized hurriedly.

"Sorry, sorry! We'll arrange it right away! We have everything you want to eat at Baixianglou! Excuse me, is there anything else you three need to order?"
