Chapter 100: Great Capital, the excitement never stops 2.0
"Everyone, think about it, think about it!" Zhou Zhongan casually pulled out a chopstick from the table and used it as a shocking log. Even though no one responded to him, he was still dancing happily.
Shen Yuan finally understood what Xie Hui had meant. Fortunately, Zhou Zhongan was not a storyteller. If he were a storyteller, it would have been considered a sign of the patience of the audience if he had not been beaten.
"The shop owner is not here when customers come in broad daylight. They are not here at the same time. How can there not be a problem?! Maybe this shop was opened to hide from others? I immediately took my people in.
"Lord Jingzhao Yin had taught us before that the inspectors should not disturb the common people at will. But I called several times in the shop but no one answered. The shop next door said that they saw them go in in the morning, but they didn't come out. I thought, this is outrageous! Maybe something happened! I immediately took people to the backyard!"
Yan Siyu couldn't help but yawned and whispered to Shen Yuan: "Yuanyuan, is this the interesting story you told us?"
Shen Yuan was also helpless. It would be better not to listen to such a story. It would be more interesting to listen to the story his father told about the five, six, seven, and eight turns of hands.
"Uh... maybe that's the truth. Now that you're here, just listen."
They were awake downstairs, thanks to Zhou Zhongan who kept knocking on the table with chopsticks from time to time.
Lu Shuyan comforted them, "We've already talked about the backyard, it should be there soon."
"Now comes the main event, please stop talking to each other!"
"As soon as I entered the backyard, I realized something was wrong. On the surface, there were three shops, but in fact, the backyards of these three houses were connected! At this time, I listened, and I told you that my ears are very good. I have been good since I was a child. When I was doing homework, I could hear my father's footsteps from a long distance. When he came, I would open the book and pretend... I have never been found out in my life."
"Xiao Anzi, if you don't get to the point, I'll tell your mother about this."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhongan immediately became obedient, "Okay, Princess, I'll talk to you nicely."
"When I heard the strange noise, I thought it was very strange, so I went to the room and heard someone calling for help at the door! People in Jingzhao Prefecture are all heroes who are willing to help others. When they heard someone calling for help, they kicked the door open with a bang."
After hearing this, it finally became interesting and everyone sat up straight, wanting to hear what was inside after the door was kicked open.
"Inside there are actually... three grown men hugging each other and rolling around in a ball!"
Zhou Zhongan boasted that he had seen a lot in Jingzhao Prefecture. After entering Jingzhao Prefecture, he had seen everything except ghosts. When he recalled that scene, he still wanted to dig out his eyes.
There is a little girl here today, and he didn't go into details. But that day, when they opened the door, they saw a mass of white, and they couldn't even tell whether it was a boy or a girl.
I wanted to leave, but I heard a man's voice calling for help, so I went ahead and asked.
Only then did I realize that there were not two people, but three people, three men at that. I wanted to ask them to put on their clothes before questioning them, but it turned out that the three people could not be separated!
Zhou Zhongan had to hold his nose and ask someone to call a doctor. The old doctor had never seen anything like this in his life. After he came in and took a look, he said he couldn't cure it. It took three doctors to separate the three of them.
Later, it was found out that the three people were the shop owners of the three shops mentioned above, and two of them were already married and had children. Zhou Zhongan also sent people to inform these two people's homes. There was nothing he could do about it; he was such a kind-hearted person.
"I was kind enough to ask for a doctor, but they later went to Jingzhao Prefecture to report me, saying that I had broken into a private residence, and I was scolded by Jingzhao Yin again."
Even though Zhou Zhongan didn't mention the details, that one sentence alone was enough to spark everyone's imagination, and everyone's expressions were a little subtle.
Zhou Zhongan was a little surprised to see that everyone was silent. "Why don't you say anything? Don't you like to hear this? This shouldn't happen. We in Jingzhao Prefecture have been talking about this for nearly half a month."
Shen Yuan felt that the scripts he had written before were too narrow and that he should broaden his horizons.
"Since you don't like to hear it, let me tell you another story..."
“No need!!!”
Zhou Zhongan was about to speak when he was stopped by everyone. What a fool they were. If they wanted to listen to stories, they could go anywhere. The worst that could happen was to ask around outside. It felt like listening to Zhou Zhongan telling stories could shorten their lives.
"Xiao Anzi, it's getting late, it's time for lunch, why don't we have lunch, everyone must be hungry, right?"
They were all afraid that Zhou Zhongan would continue talking when he became interested, so they all nodded.
Xie Yuan touched his stomach and said exaggeratedly, "Oh, I'm so hungry. I got up late on this holiday and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. Aren't you hungry?"
"Well then." Zhou Zhongan's tone sounded rather regretful, "I'll tell you all about it next time I have the chance."
Xie Hui reached out and poured a cup of tea for Zhou Zhongan, "You take a rest."
"You, you, you're still thankful for that. You are so polite to me..." Zhou Zhongan was flattered.
"Drink more water and talk less."
"It is fate that brings us together today. Let's have lunch together before going back."
The princess said so, and everyone agreed. After all, they had suffered for the whole morning, and even for the sake of their own ears, they should heal them.
Tianyuelou is known as the best restaurant in Beijing. Even the menu is gold-plated. When ordering, you only need to look at the menu and then tell the waiter what you want to order.
"Dear guests, we have many guests at Tianyue Restaurant today. This menu is not enough. There are only three left. Please take a look at them together."
The waiter came up with the menu, looking apologetic. Their restaurant was expensive and they catered to wealthy people, so it was normal that there were not many people coming on weekdays. However, today was a holiday and there were many more people than usual, so the menu was not enough for one person.
"It's okay, we can just pass it around."
"Let the children order first." The princess signaled the waiter to give the order list to Shen Yuan and the others first.
Yan Siyu, Lu Shuyan and Jiang Yunyi watched it together, Shen Yuan watched one copy with his sister-in-law, and the other copy was given to Xie Hui and Zhou Zhongan. They were still children after all.
Princess Xie Yuan, Shen Yun and the other two parents were chatting.
The waiter was waiting by the side with a pen, writing down their orders.
“Huating Lake Fish Head Hotpot.”
Shen Yuan and Xie Hui ordered the same dish at the same time, causing everyone who were chatting and discussing what dish to order to look at them at the same time.
Shen Yuan saw everyone's gazes, swallowed, and uttered two words.
“A large portion.”
