Manjianglou is luxuriously decorated, a Rolls-Royce among hotels in Shanghai.
Forget about private rooms, there aren't even any tables in the main hall; every table needs to be booked in advance.
Zhao Xiaoyue was truly amazed; no wonder it was so expensive.
She picked up the cup in front of her, carefully lifted it, and took only a small sip.
A cup of top-quality Biluochun tea, costing 150 yuan, is served in a porcelain cup.
The key porcelain cup is from the Ru kiln of the Song Dynasty!
It's from the Song Dynasty!
It's a genuine antique!
Mr. Zhao carefully slid off the armchair, afraid of bumping or getting hurt.
I was afraid of bumping into or damaging the tables and chairs here.
She moved to the side and sat down casually in a chair, and Situ Ming, who was sipping tea, followed and moved closer.
"Young man, is this really a place to eat?"
Situ Ming glanced at the little girl, who seemed hesitant and awkward, and assumed she wasn't used to it.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly leaned close to my ear and asked me this question.
"Yes, this really is a restaurant."
Zhao Xiaoyue asked suspiciously, "Are you sure?"
Situ Ming: "I'm sure!"
Mr. Zhao was no longer calm.
"Whose restaurant uses antique teacups?" she asked, her hand resting on the table. "If you accidentally chip one off, it'd cost several thousand, wouldn't it?"
Zhao Xiaoyue sat in an armchair. "Looking at the potted plants on the table, who uses gold to make potted plants?"
In the very center of the two-meter-diameter rosewood round table, there is a pine tree made of gold, about twenty centimeters tall, which is used to welcome guests.
Gold and purple!
"Hey bro, is your friend the richest man in the country? His restaurant is so extravagant, his house must be a palace!"
Situ Ming sat elegantly. "This is his home."
The waiter served the food quickly, including a large plate of steamed crab and tools for disassembling it.
Crispy duck, eight-treasure rice, the presentation is very elegant.
How could it not be elegant?
The plates, bowls, and spoons are all... antiques!
That little knife really did slap my butt, and opened my eyes wide!
One meal was eaten by one person and fed by another.
The process of deboning and removing the core from the crabs, along with dismantling them, satisfies both the person feeding them and the person being fed.
It's great to have someone peel the crab shells; once you've peeled a whole plateful, you can just pop it into your mouth—that's so satisfying.
Downstairs at the counter, Hou Taotao was practically fuming with anxiety.
"What kind of response is this, waiter? I already told you, my little niece is inside, I'm looking for her!"
The waitress was very professional; she just smiled and said, "Each private room is booked in advance. If you want to find someone inside, you have to call the person in the room and ask them to come out and meet you. Otherwise, we can't let you in."
black!
There really isn't a place Hou Taotao can't go.
"You just wait."
The waiter still smiled and nodded.
Hou Taotao, Zhang Xiaomeng, and Liang Cheng met up.
"How about it?"
Hou Taotao took out her phone and dialed, "They won't let us in, saying we need to make a reservation in advance."
Liang Cheng realized that this place wasn't just for those with money; you had to make a reservation in advance.
"Hey, Seventh Brother, do you have a reservation at Manjianglou, or do you know anyone there?"
No one knows what was said on the other end, but Hou Taotao's patience ran out. "You fucking get over here right now."
The call ended.
Honestly, he just needs to be disciplined; he's always so slow and indecisive.
About five minutes later, Yu Muqi rushed over.
The driver didn't even close the car door after getting out; he only closed it after parking the car.
"What's wrong, Tao-ge?"
Yu Muqi finally dared to catch his breath.
"I wanted to go to Manjianglou, but they wouldn't let me in because I hadn't made a reservation. I remember you had a private room here?"
Yu Muqi: "Yes, I've extended the payment until next year! Do you want it now?"
Hou Taotao: "Yes, I need it now, it's very urgent."
Five minutes later they sat down in the "Rain Hall" opposite the "Wind Pavilion".
Yu Muqi: "Brother Tao, what are we going to do?"
Hou Taotao: "I'm worried about the helmsman and Wen family's son, Situ Ming, being inside."
Yu Muqi's eyes sharpened. "Is that pig trying to seduce the captain again?"
Hou Taotao: "It's not entirely certain yet."
One hour later
"When will the captains come out?"
The door was slightly ajar, and the way these people looked at each other was just like that of spies.
Suddenly Zhang Xiaomeng whispered, "They're out, they're out, they're out."
"Close the door! Close the door! Close the door now!"
The footsteps faded into the distance before the three of them followed at a distance that wasn't too close.
In June and July, the weather can change from sunny to cloudy in an instant, and it looks like it's about to rain.
The two walked side by side, one carrying fruit in his arms, the other eating fruit.
"You know what, these cherries are really delicious. There's so much flesh that it takes two bites to finish them."
Situ Ming: "This thing is called a cherry."
Zhao Xiaoyue: "Oh, don't worry about that. Isn't this just a grown cherry? And if I say it's a cherry, then it's a cherry."
Okay!
Where do you want to go to university?
Mr. Zhao popped a blueberry into his mouth. "I don't know, maybe I'll just find a school nearby."
Situ Ming handed over another blueberry. "I heard that Peking University has an archaeology department. Apparently, you can get in with a low score. They unearth some strange and unusual things there. The other day on the ship, I saw that you liked those bottles and jars. Why don't you give it a try?"
Mr. Zhao stopped and corrected, "Those are called antiques! Antiques! Not bottles and jars! Okay?"
Situ Ming nodded, "Alright, antiques. I see you're quite interested. The archaeology department at Peking University is a good place to go."
Seeing the little girl pop another blueberry into her mouth and begin to ponder, he didn't interfere further.
Talking too much makes him seem too deliberate.
