Chapter 1165 Rich young masters are hard to please
Tang Wan'er understood this deeply, since she had been working while studying during her school years, and the Tang family was unwilling to spend too much money on her.
But living in a first-tier city means high living costs, and buying anything there is expensive, so she has to work while studying to support herself.
Fortunately, she was self-sufficient. Even after being expelled from school, she was still able to support herself and did not need to ask the Tang family for money.
When Tang Wan'er was young, she couldn't work. Every time she asked Liu Yun for money, Liu Yun would say the most hurtful things, full of sarcasm and ridicule, which caused a lot of pain to young Tang Wan'er.
Just then, the proprietress brought a steaming bowl of spicy hot pot to their table.
Looking at the generous amount of ingredients in the hot pot, Tang Wan'er felt extremely satisfied and couldn't wait to take a sip of the soup.
The soup base of this mala tang (spicy hot pot) is made from broth simmered with pork bones, which is drinkable and is their specialty.
Although it's not quite the same as Sichuan-style mala tang, it has its own unique flavor.
Especially in this cold winter after a snowfall, a sip of soup warms the whole body.
Tang Wan
The girl took a sip of the soup, a satisfied expression on her face. "Eating a bowl of spicy hot pot on a day like this is such a blessing. I haven't had spicy hot pot in a long time, but this tastes exactly the same as when we were in school."
Xia Youxin couldn't wait to take a bite, but it was so hot that tears almost fell. She couldn't eat things that were too hot, and if she got burned, she would easily burst into tears.
"It's so hot... but it's so delicious! This is the taste I remember when I was in school, eating a bowl of this in the winter made me feel like I was on cloud nine."
"But when we were in school, I don't think we ate this much food, right? I remember we always added less to save money, but we added two noodles, and you said that would be enough to fill you up!"
Tang Wan'er smiled and nodded, "Back then, prices weren't as high as they are now! But I still think my student days were the best."
Tang Wan'er then realized that the two men were so engrossed in listening to them talk that they hadn't eaten anything at all.
I don't know if they were disgusted by each other or what.
The young masters of wealthy families are just too difficult to please.
"You two have been staring at me."
What are you doing? Why aren't you eating? Come on, try this! I guarantee it's much better than the fancy steaks you usually eat.
Qi Xuan clearly didn't believe it. "Are you kidding me? Is this even comparable? How much does a steak cost at a Western restaurant? You can eat all this here for only a few dozen yuan. I really suspect you have some misunderstanding about food."
Xia Youxin quickly stepped in to help Tang Wan'er, saying, "You're not allowed to argue back. We both come from wealthy families, okay? Don't treat us like we've never eaten expensive food before, okay?"
Qi Xuan was speechless after being rebuked.
Fu Yanzun was never very talkative in front of outsiders, and he basically didn't say a word from beginning to end.
However, he has already tried many things for Tang Wan'er.
For example, barbecue, or spicy hot pot...
He used to never touch strong-smelling foods, but now he doesn't mind eating another kind of food.
Fu Yanzun took a bite of the mala tang and found that the taste was milder than that of mala hot pot. After all, the soup base here is drinkable. Although it is also numbing and spicy, it is not the kind of flavor that is particularly strong. The soup base is also very delicious, and you can tell that it is a broth that has been simmered for a long time.
