The shopkeeper led Hua Lingxuan and his group to a wing room in the middle of the second floor, which had the best location and the largest room.
"Gentlemen and ladies, please come in."
"Has Mr. Qiu come today?" Hua Lingxuan thought of Jiang's instructions and asked the shopkeeper.
"Our boss is here and is doing the accounts in the accounting office. As soon as the nobles arrived, I notified our boss."
"Oh, that's good." Hua Lingxuan felt relieved.
Hua Lingjian said, "Boss, please prepare today's meal. It must have the characteristics of your restaurant. We want to entertain our friends!"
Hua Qingqing quickly interrupted.
"The baby wants pig's trotters."
“Fried fish and grilled kidney!”
“And milk cake!”
“Ice bowl!”
…
When Hua Lingxuan and the others heard the names of the dishes, their faces turned dark!
"Qingqing," Hua Lingxuan disagreed, "The ice bowl is too cold! You'll have a stomachache if you eat it!"
"And pig's trotters. Eating them late at night is hard to digest..."
Hua Qingqing ignored everything and just stared at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper's mouth twitched and he could only nod.
This little lady was the youngest, but she was the one they were most afraid of offending, so all her requests had to be met.
They still remembered that the waiter who offended the young lady last time died miserably. His father was also expelled and no longer employed.
Moreover, the boss had specifically instructed us to treat the young lady of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion well.
The shopkeeper memorized all the names of the dishes Hua Qingqing had mentioned, and left only after Hua Qingqing had given him more instructions.
Soon, various dishes were served:
Pepper and vinegar shrimp, roast goose, braised sheep's head and feet, goose meat, salty bean curd and mustard sheep tripe, garlic vinegar and white blood soup, five-flavor steamed chicken, mutton bones with sesame sauce, spicy vinegar kidney, steamed fish, five-flavor steamed gluten, mutton crystal dumplings...
There was a large table full of food.
Hua Qingqing looked and found that the pig's trotters and roasted kidneys she ordered were not available, nor were the ice bowls, and there were a few dishes missing. She pouted immediately and looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper kept his head down the whole time and didn't dare to look at her.
Just when Qingqing was about to get angry, Qiu Mobai came.
When Hua Qingqing saw him, she felt very aggrieved and said, "Brother Qiu, give me a hug."
"Qingqing, what's wrong? Why are you angry?"
Qingqing pointed directly at the shopkeeper and complained, "The baby wants to eat pig's trotters, roasted kidneys, ice bowls, and..." She listed several in one breath!
"He won't give the baby any sex!"
Qiu Mobai smiled, "Oh, Qingqing, I'm sorry, those dishes are all sold out! Come at noon if you want to eat."
"Besides, children will feel uncomfortable in their stomachs if they eat at night."
When Qingqing heard that it was sold out, she was dejected and had no choice but to give up!
It was at this time that Qiu Mobai came to greet everyone.
"It is a great honor for us to have you here today. We have added some new dishes in the past two days, so it is a good opportunity for you to try them."
"Today's meal is my treat, so please eat as much as you can. If you don't have enough, just tell the shopkeeper!"
The shopkeeper was standing beside him, nodding and bowing.
Hua Lingjian originally thought that he would bleed heavily today! After hearing what Qiu Mobai said, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
A big smile appeared on his face. "Thank you very much, Mr. Qiu. We won't be polite then."
Qiu Mobai smiled. "You don't have to be polite, Second Young Master. It's already a great honor for me that you and your lady can come to Yipinxuan for dinner."
Qiu Mobai knew Hou Yingying before. He nodded at her as a greeting.
But she had no intention of staying.
"Brother Qiu, come and have dinner with us." Qingqing asked.
"No, my brother has two friends coming over. I have to go and greet them."
Hua Qingqing pouted and held on to his sleeve tightly.
“No, no!”
"Brother Qiu, please have dinner with Qingqing!"
Qiu Mobai was a little embarrassed.
Hua Lingxuan was about to hug Hua Qingqing.
"Qingqing, don't be naughty. Your brother Qiu is still busy!"
Qiu Mobai saw that Hua Qingqing was unhappy, so he asked.
"Why don't Qingqing go with your brother?" He said and looked at Hua Lingxuan.
Hua Lingxuan had no objection, thinking that he could still have a private chat with Jin'er later. It would indeed be more convenient if Qingqing was not around.
Hua Lingxuan looked at Qingqing.
"Is there anything delicious?" Qingqing asked.
Qiu Mobai smiled. "Of course! There are many more."
"Then the baby has to go."
Hua Lingxuan sighed, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Qiu."
"It's not a bother. I'll carry Qingqing over. It's actually right next door! Not far. Enjoy your meal, everyone."
He carried Qingqing out of the door and went straight to the box next door.
This private room is only half the size of the one Hua Lingxuan and his friends had, and the table inside is also small, only seating six people at most.
"Hey, Mo Bai, what took you so long?" The person who spoke was Yu Jinzhi.
He was stunned for a moment when he saw Hua Qingqing in Qiu Mobai's arms.
"Why is the little girl here?"
"Miss Qingqing is here to eat with her brothers and sisters. They are next door."
Xie Mingjue fanned himself in a showy manner and greeted Hua Qingqing with a smile.
"Hello, sister Qingqing!"
Qingqing nodded.
"Hello, Brother Xie, hello, Uncle Yu!"
Yu Jinzhi rolled his eyes.
Qiu Mobai was amused, and held her in his arms and sat down next to Yu Jinzhi. He also picked up a piece of shrimp for her with his chopsticks.
Qingqing ate it with gusto.
The door was pushed open and Wen Hao walked in. Seeing Hua Qingqing in Qiu Mobai's arms, he was also stunned for a moment.
"Qingqing is here too!"
Qingqing smiled sweetly, "Hello, cousin-in-law!"
Wen Hao nodded, "Qingqing, hello!"
He sat on the other side of Qiu Mobai. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but speak.
"It will probably be tomorrow! I noticed someone is already keeping an eye on Wenyuanzhai!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Yu Jinzhi and asked, "Is he one of yours?"
"Don't look at me. This kind of thing is not my business. It should belong to the people in the Dali Temple."
Xie Mingjue fanned himself and asked Qiu Mobai in a low voice.
"Mo Bai, are you sure you're okay? Why am I so frightened?"
Wen Hao also looked at him, with worry in his eyes.
After all, the leakage of examination questions is something that most people cannot afford.
After Qiu Mobai fed Qingqing some water, he said calmly, "Although it is very dangerous and cannot be foolproof, it is not a big problem."
"Have you all forgotten? On the surface, I am now almost the prince's man."
"I am in charge of the prince's purse. The old emperor would not want anything to happen to me."
Several people felt that what he said made sense and felt relieved.
Suddenly there was a noise outside the door.
"I go, there's a fight."
"This woman is too fierce. Look how she beat her husband."
Hua Qingqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
Holding a chicken leg in his mouth, he looked suddenly outside the door.
【The good show that I have been waiting for all night is finally here. 】
【Baby must go and see it. 】
Qiu Mobai was stunned and found that Qingqing kicked her calves and slid off his legs, then ran to the door and opened it.
Suddenly, the noise got louder.
