Chapter 576 Cheap
"You can go upstairs and have a look. It's free anyway." Xia Yan saw Alura's concerns and reassured her. "It's up to you to decide where to eat."
The two children shook their arms even harder upon hearing this.
"Mom, go check it out. My sister said she won't charge any money."
"We've never seen a hot pot restaurant before, and we'd like to see one."
Cairang raised the points card in his hand and motioned Arula to look at the number on it.
"Don't worry about it. Just go upstairs and let the children broaden their horizons." He made the final decision.
I don’t know when we can go back to the city. My children are getting older and if they have never seen or eaten anything, they will have to adapt again when they go to college.
Why not take this opportunity to let both children have a try.
Cai Rang thought ahead and realized that children without experience would feel restrained when going out.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just like the simplest thing like taking the bus, the children have never experienced it before, and their legs tremble when they see the bus coming!
"Let's go upstairs and take a look." He reiterated.
After taking the elevator to the third floor, the first thing you see is the big sign of the hot pot restaurant.
Since there were no customers in the store, the aroma of hot pot that you should have smelled as soon as you walked out was gone.
Xia Yan recalled that when the store was at its busiest, there were long queues in front of every store on the third floor.
As soon as you step out of the elevator, you can smell all kinds of aromas, the glass windows are covered with fog, and the sound of clinking glasses can be heard one after another.
now.
Only the clerk was left standing at the door of the store, and the stools inside were covered in dust.
Woohoo, the prosperity is gone...
Even so, it still shocked Arula and the other three.
What kind of magical place is this?!
How many people do we need to hire for such a big stall?
If there wasn't someone leading the way, they wouldn't even dare to take a look.
"Just take a look around. You're the only customers in the restaurant. You can eat anywhere you want."
Xia Yan was really giving up, so he grabbed a handful of free fruit candies from the store entrance and stuffed them into the two children's pockets.
Seeing her so generous, Arula and Cairang breathed a sigh of relief. A person who is kind to children will naturally not look at others with tinted glasses.
With Xiong Xiong leading the introductions, Xia Yan felt at ease.
She walked to the freezer in the hot pot restaurant and scooped herself a few spoonfuls of ice cream.
The two children were drooling when they saw it.
"It's not that I won't give it to you, you're young and your stomachs are weak. If you get a stomachache after eating, I don't have any medicine here."
People who never eat cold or spicy food really cannot tolerate the stimulation of their stomachs.
She can give what she deserves for free, but she will not take the initiative to cause trouble that she shouldn't cause.
Arula obviously knew better the power of ice cream. She used her motherly authority to force the children to return to her.
Then he took a piece of candy and stuffed it into their mouths, "Eat candy, I can't let you eat ice cream."
After visiting several specialty stores, I became very interested in hot pot restaurants.
Xiongxiong brought him the menu.
Not only are there text and unit prices, but there are also specially provided pictures, so that customers can see the freshness of the ingredients at a glance.
The dish served will look like the basic picture.
"Alula, come and see," he suddenly called out, "You can order a lot of vegetables for hot pot, and it's not expensive, only a few points for each dish."
Cairang pointed to the six points marked on the back of the lettuce and spoke excitedly.
He had just secretly calculated in his mind that even if they ate a lot, it would probably only cost more than 300 points.
And they have 20,000 yuan in their card.
There is also a big guy behind the scenes adding fuel to the fire.
It said, "Customer, although I shouldn't say this, I have to remind you that we won't be here long.
"The world out there is very dangerous. I don't think you'll be able to eat such authentic hot pot for a long time."
Cai Rang was shocked: "When are you leaving? What should I do with the unused points on my card?"
Xiong Xiong stole a glance at Xia Yan, stroked his hairy chin, and replied:
"Don't worry, you'll find more places to spend your points later. We won't leave until the balance on your card is cleared."
Cai Rang thought it meant that they would spend all their points on food and drink, although that was true.
But Cairang still couldn't bear to think about it. What kind of day and what kind of tricks were they doing? How could they spend 20,000 yuan just like that?
Besides, the food here is not expensive, with one dish costing only a single digit.
Twenty thousand, a five-digit number, this store owner is really bold.
“Eat hot pot and let my children experience it.”
Cai Rang waved his hand and, with the help of Xiong Xiong's pen, pointed out a lot.
During this time, Xia Yan was sitting at another table.
There was also a menu in front of her, and she checked off the items and ordered some of her favorites.
It's really boring to eat hotpot alone, and she doesn't have a mobile phone, so she can't watch the fun on video.
I can only stare blankly at the variety shows I have watched countless times.
Now, there is finally a table of customers in the restaurant eating hot pot with her——
Alas, the standards have dropped to this level.
Only then did the sensible Xiong Xiong arrange for the four of them to sit at the table next to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan took out the remote control and turned on the TV opposite her, which was playing the scene she had watched half of last time.
"Mom, that's the TV!"
The two children were the first to hear the noise, and they jumped to the ground excitedly, pointing at the TV screen.
Cairang and Arula were dumbfounded.
Only then did they discover something very important: there was electricity in this store!
But this is the highlands and grasslands. Who would install electrical wires for this hotel that suddenly appeared?
What kind of project is this? It’s so big!
Weird.
This way everything looks weird.
The two exchanged glances, both expressing fear of the unknown.
It's only now that you react so slowly. Isn't it too late?
Just as the two were daydreaming, a strong and overbearing aroma emanated from the boiling hot pot next door.
Seeing them looking at him, Xia Yan smiled, picked up a piece of yellow throat with chopsticks and put it into the pot of spicy soup with boiling red oil.
"Please be careful with it."
Arula subconsciously dodged backwards, and the waiter appeared from the side with a double-flavored hot pot and placed the pot in front of them.
There were a few dripping sounds, and the sound of heating came from the bottom of the pot.
Next, plates of juicy green vegetables were placed on white porcelain plates next to the hot pot.
"Mom, this is hot pot?"
The little daughter leaned on the edge of the pot, looked at the soup base which was white like milk, and licked her lips.
"Um."
"What's that little red thing inside? Is it a fruit?"
Arula moved closer, and a few small bubbles rolled out of the white soup, hiding the thing her daughter pointed at underneath.
"Yes, and it's sweet." Based on experience, it's a good thing.
"Mom, I want to eat." The little daughter blinked her eyes.
Arula hesitated, but refused.
"Do you still want to eat hot pot?"
"think."
"Then don't touch the things inside. They make the hot pot more delicious."
