Chapter 390 The Wu Family’s Future Son-in-Law
Wu Jianguo had never been to these places before, and when he saw the high-end facade, he said:
"You must have heard it from others!"
Feng Zhikang introduces:
"I heard about this place from a friend. I heard the food is fresh and delicious, but it's a bit more expensive than other restaurants."
Wu Jianguo hurriedly said:
"Then let's go to the small restaurant at the corner of the street..."
Zhang A-mei bumped his arm and Wu Jianguo shut up.
Feng Zhikang acted like a wealthy man: "Uncle, it's okay, it's just a meal, let's go!"
Zhang A'mei glared at Wu Jianguo fiercely, turned around and went into Suihua Building first.
"Welcome, everyone. Please come in," the waiter at the door invited.
Feng Zhikang pointed to the right and said, "Find us a room in that row."
"I'm sorry, sir, all the private rooms with stained glass windows are full. Could you please sit near the back of the lobby? There's a clump of bamboo by the window, and there's also a small fish pond there, which is also nice," the waiter introduced.
"That won't do. This is the first time I'm inviting my uncles and aunts to dinner. How can I be so rude? It's not easy to talk while we're sitting in the lobby." Feng Zhikang waved his hand.
At this time, Feng Zhikang saw a guest coming from the backyard, and thought of something, and asked again:
"I heard they say the rooms in the back are better, right?"
"Yes, but our rooms in the back building require an additional service charge because..."
Before the waiter finished his introduction, Feng Zhikang interrupted him: "Just add more!"
When Wu Jianguo heard that he had to pay extra, he panicked a bit. He then glanced at the seat in the lobby and thought it was quite comfortable, so he said:
"Let's go to the lobby! It's cooler there. It's not cool enough in the closed room."
"Uncle, you're welcome. Let's go to the back." Feng Zhikang said nonchalantly.
"Okay, please go to the private room in the back building." The waiter led the four people along the corridor to the back building.
Unexpectedly, when I walked to the back building, I ran into Zhu Xiu Yu who was coming out of the office.
"Brother Wu, sister, come and have dinner," Zhu Xiu Yu greeted.
Zhang A'mei hadn't seen Zhu Xiu Yu for a long time, and she had to look at her several times before she recognized her.
She had lost some weight, was wearing the work clothes of the building, and was smiling.
"Sister Zhu..." Wu Jianguo recognized her.
"Aunt Zhu." Zhang Min also greeted.
"Oh, Xiao Min, it's been a long time since we last met. I wouldn't recognize you if we met on the street." Zhu Xiu Yu showed her signature smile.
"Aunt Zhu, you work here?" Zhang Min asked.
Before Zhu Xiuyu could answer, Zhang Amei took over:
"Xiao Min, what you said, have you forgotten that you have eaten Aunt Zhu's cooking? She cooks well, so she must work in the restaurant."
"Yes, sister, you are right. I have no education and can't do anything else. I can only cook, so I can only do this kind of work." Zhu Xiu Yu smiled.
"Hey, you just cleaned it, which room is cleaner?" Feng Zhikang looked at her holding a bucket with disdain on his face.
This is the bucket for pouring tea leaves in Zhu Xiuyu's office. She brought it out when she came out to pour it out.
"Oh, young comrade, don't worry, every room here is spotless," Zhu Xiuyu glanced at him, "This must be Xiaomin's boyfriend!"
"Yes!" Zhang A'mei raised her chin.
"That's great, that's great. Xiao Min has good taste. I'm so lucky. Please come in!" Zhu Xiu Yu stepped aside and made way.
Before she had taken two steps, a waiter came over and said to Zhu Xiuyu:
"Manager, Boss Qiao is here. He wants you to come over. He wants to introduce you to a boss."
"Okay, I understand," Zhu Xiuyu responded, and then waved to the waiter in the private room, "Xiao Yu, these are my friends. I'll buy you tea today."
"Okay, Manager Zhu," the waiter responded and then said to the others, "Please come in."
Zhang A-mei looked at Zhu Xiuyu's back in surprise. She couldn't help but ask the waiter: "What does Zhu Xiuyu do here?"
"Manager Zhu is in charge of our entire Suihua Building." The waiter replied with a smile.
Zhang A-mei’s eyes almost popped out.
Only after everyone entered the house did they realize that it was indeed extraordinary.
Wu Jianguo looked at the furnishings in the room and felt a little nervous, but Feng Zhikang acted as if he was familiar with the place and started ordering tea and dishes.
The waiter recommended a few, and he waved his hand and said, "Bring them all."
Then the waiter asked:
"We have desserts here that ladies love: double-skin milk and small cakes. They are our specialty and the quantity is limited every day. Everyone loves them. Would you like to give them to the two ladies to try?"
"Come on, let's each have two." Zhang A'mei made the decision for Feng Zhikang.
While waiting for the food to be served, Zhang Min couldn't sit still and pulled Feng Zhikang to go outside to take a look.
Wu Jianguo had nothing to do, so he picked up the menu and looked at it. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was shocked:
“So expensive!”
"Oh, don't make a fuss. Didn't Xiao Feng just say that the food here is more expensive than elsewhere, but it tastes better." said Zhang A'mei.
She drank tea, which she had never tasted before, and found it very fragrant. She thought, after all, it was Zhu Xiuyu's treat and it was free.
Thinking of this, with the idea that every drink counts, she picked up the teapot and poured tea into the bowl in front of her and the bowl in front of Wu Jianguo to cool them down.
"I didn't expect that Sister Zhu is also the manager." Wu Jianguo couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm just a waiter, what's so great about that?" Zhang A'mei said sourly.
"I think the salary working in this building should be better than that of a temporary worker." Wu Jianguo took another look at the situation in the room and said to himself.
When Zhang A-mei heard this, she felt that Wu Jianguo was teasing her, so she punched Wu Jianguo on the arm and said, "What do you mean?"
"I don't mean anything to you. I just mean that she was a temporary worker originally. Now she is looking for a job, so she should earn more than before." Wu Jianguo rubbed his arm.
Zhang A'mei angrily drank the tea in the cup.
When the dishes arrived, they were indeed delicious and tasty, and they were dishes they had never eaten before.
All the dishes recommended by the waiter just now are special dishes that are not available in other restaurants.
At the dinner table, Feng Zhikang talked a lot, planning his and Zhang Min's future:
She went abroad to buy the most advanced embroidery machines, each costing tens of thousands of dollars, and then opened an embroidery factory and let Zhang Min manage it.
He was in charge of the textile factory at home, and all the embroidery work was handed over to Zhang Min's factory. In this way, he could not only earn other people's money, but also earn money from his brothers. He was the fourth child in the family.
The Wu family was filled with excitement upon hearing this.
"When Xiaomin reaches the age, we will get married. Then you won't have to live in the shabby house in the cotton mill. You can live in the big house in my textile mill." Feng Zhikang concluded.
After dinner, Zhu Xiuyu came over to say hello.
"How is it, are you satisfied with the meal?"
"It's just okay. This cake is sour, it must have gone bad. You can't charge me for it! If I weren't familiar with you, I would have thrown it in your face." Zhang A'mei looked domineering.
"Mom!" Zhang Min growled, "This is yogurt, it's naturally sour!"
"What yogurt? How can you eat it if the milk is sour? You will get a stomachache! This double skin milk is sweet!" Zhang A'mei became more and more angry as she spoke.
"Mom!" Zhang Min wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Oh, Xiao Min, it's okay, the cake is my gift." Zhu Xiu Yu smiled again.
"Thank you, Aunt Zhu."
Zhu Xiuyu nodded: "Then come often and find me, and I will bring you snacks."
After saying that, Zhu Xiuyu walked out the door.
The waiter handed the bill to Feng Zhikang. Feng Zhikang saw the 28.88 yuan on the bill and fell into deep thought.
