Chapter 205: Secret visit to the tavern and encountering a thief.



After lunch, Li Xiuzhu went to Fu Yunshuang’s tavern.

It's a small pub, with about a hundred people sitting there.

The tavern at this time was completely different from when he came here last time.

Fu Yunshuang was not there and Li Xiuzhu didn't look for anyone.

"A master?"

"Well, let's get a private room."

The waiter's eyes suddenly lit up, but he still reminded:

"Sir, the minimum charge for our private room is ten taels of silver. Is that okay with you?"

“Actually, downstairs is also nice and has more atmosphere.”

"On the second floor."

Li Xiuzhu was still quite satisfied. Explaining it in advance would make people feel more at ease.

No one was allowed to go up just because they wanted a private room.

"One person in a private room on the second floor."

"Master, please come this way. I am not responsible for the second floor. You can go up and I will lead the way."

When Li Xiuzhu went upstairs, there was already a young lady at the stairs.

She looked to be in her early twenties, and was wearing an embroidered skirt of a lady from a wealthy family. She did not look like an ordinary maid at first glance.

"Hello, sir. Your private room is over here. Please follow me."

Li Xiuzhu looked at the woman as he walked, and only asked after they entered the private room, "Do you usually wear this?"

The maid was startled, but nodded.

"Our ladies say that dressing like this makes customers feel superior."

Li Xiuzhu nodded, that was indeed the case.

"Are there any special features? Recommend them."

The maid smiled a sweet stewardess smile, making Li Xiuzhu feel at home, and said, "Is this your first time here? Then you must try our signature dish."

"Oh, what's the sign?"

The maid introduced with a smug look on her face: "The first is of course the roast suckling pig. The suckling pigs in our store are not ordinary pigs, but are raised with special techniques."

“Not only does the meat not have a fishy smell, but the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and the aroma is so fragrant that you can chew it on your tongue.”

"In addition, garlic chicken wings, black bean chicken feet, garlic spareribs, deep-fried vegetables and traditional Chinese soup are all signature dishes of our store."

"Of course, we have other signature dishes in our store, but sir, you can't eat too much at one time. Even a few bites of each of these will fill you up."

“You can come to our store and try something else next time.”

"Of course, if you are not satisfied with the dishes I recommended, I can also recommend other dishes to you."

Li Xiuzhu thought for a moment and said, "Let's have some black bean chicken feet, some garlic pork ribs, some Wushan grilled fish, some deep-fried seasonal vegetables, and some traditional hotpot soup."

"That's about it."

The maid was startled.

"Okay, sir. So you've been to our store before."

Li Xiuzhu shook his head.

“Never.”

"Impossible, you already know the dishes I haven't introduced."

Li Xiuzhu smiled mysteriously at the little maid.

"You'll know when you're destined to know."

Although Li Xiuzhu had eaten, he also wanted to observe the chefs' cooking skills.

From the private room on the second floor, you can see the stage downstairs. At this moment, a female storyteller is telling the story of the new Legend of White Snake on the stage.

This is the storybook given by Li Xiuzhu. It is quite entertaining to hear a woman tell the story.

At this point in the story, White Snake met Xu Xian in front of the Broken Bridge of West Lake.

However, at this moment, there was a sound of gavel.

"To know what happened next, please listen to the next episode."

Li Xiuzhu couldn't help but laugh. It was really time to end it.

Cheers and bells rang from downstairs from time to time.

Then I heard someone singing.

"Uncle Sun Hu gave me a reward of one tael of silver."

"Mr. Li Le gave me a twenty-cent reward."

"Uncle Ma Han's reward..."

"Uncle Zhang Jun gave me a reward..."

This is the rewarding part, which is entirely voluntary. All you have to do is to be number one on the list.

The person who gives the most tips will not only gain honor in the inn, but will also have artists come forward to offer him a glass of wine.

Soon, this round of rewards was over.

The storyteller went down to toast, and another woman came up.

"Next, please enjoy Shen Youwei's performance of the song, Ambush from All Sides."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Hmm? Is Shen Youwei here? Or is she still here?

The next moment Shen Youwei walked onto the stage.

After not seeing her for over a month, Shen Youwei still looked so frail.

After she sat down, she first steadied herself before she began to play.

The pipa was plucked and plucked gently in Shen Youwei's hands, and the sound was soft and slow. Although it lived up to the tension and excitement brought by the ambush from all sides, it still hesitated to speak.

Just by listening, Li Xiuzhu seemed to hear the contradictions and longings of his master.

There is also a tenderness that is hesitant to speak.

This... is it for Yunshuang? Do you have such deep feelings for Yunshuang?

Li Xiuzhu looked around the audience and found that his sister-in-law Fu Yunshuang was not there.

Is this self-comfort?

Gu Yue sang more songs than people in later generations. He played a tune he didn’t know for about a cup of tea before he finished.

Just as Shen Youwei was about to go down, she heard the sound of a copper bell.

Shen Youwei paused, frowned and looked in the direction of the ringing bell.

At this time, the maid in charge of hosting the show quickly walked onto the stage and said apologetically, "This guest seems to be new. I'm sorry, we at Youwei don't accept tips for our performances, and we won't toast to guests."

"Youwei is a friend of our host. She comes to play a song every three days."

Most people would stop when hearing this, but not everyone is willing to stop there.

Especially the personnel on the first floor are complicated, and many of them are gangsters.

"Haha, you are really a hypocrite. I don't care who you are."

"You must offer this wine today, otherwise you will be disrespecting my brother."

"If you dare to say no, we will overturn your table."

At this moment, the sound in the restaurant stopped abruptly, and most people looked at the person who was shouting in surprise.

From Li Xiuzhu's angle, he could just see the person who was speaking, a big man with a dark face and a full beard. There was a big axe placed on the leg of the table.

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly, not expecting to encounter such a thing.

The maid seemed to be used to this kind of thing. She was not afraid at all when she heard it. Instead, her face turned cold and she said coldly: "My hero, our Yunzhu Tower is not a place where you can act wildly. Do you know who our boss is?"

"I advise this brave man to follow the rules and not make mistakes."

People in the underworld all care about their reputation, so they immediately refused to do it.

"Little bitch, I don't care who your boss is."

"If you don't come to toast today, even if your boss is the emperor, I will destroy your shop."

The maid paused, then narrowed her eyes.

"How brave."

As she spoke, the maid clapped her hands suddenly.

Li Xiuzhu was stunned. He didn't expect that this maid was a third-rate warrior.

The next moment Li Xiuzhu saw two people appear in front of the stage.

"Please move aside, all non-essential guests. Be careful of the swords and knives that may injure you."

"We are sorry for the poor hospitality today. Guests on the first floor who have not finished their meal can leave on their own. It will be considered our treat."
