Chapter 386: Marry this kind of person, I think you will be poor for the rest of your life
The manager led Jiang Jinzhou and the others in front, while Zhao Caixia and Huang Lijun whispered in the back, "What minimum consumption?"
"What's the minimum spending?"
"There are only four of us, and he actually wants a room for twelve? Is he crazy?"
"He must be deliberately trying to rip us off! When we get into the private room, tell your friend we're not eating here! The room is too big, you don't like it!"
Although Zhao Caixia felt that this method was a bit embarrassing, she still nodded and agreed.
The more luxurious the restaurant's decoration became, the more afraid she felt.
After all, her husband is not a big boss. He just runs a small store selling boards and paints.
When they got to the second floor, the manager took them to a private room.
The interior decoration caught Zhao Caixia and Huang Lijun's eyes.
"Wow……"
Before Zhao Caixia finished her words, Huang Lijun immediately coughed.
"What are you talking about? Look at your useless look. You just like the French windows, why are you so surprised?"
Zhao Caixia quickly swallowed the next words.
The manager handed the menu to Jiang Jinzhou, who shook his head in the direction of Huang Lijun.
"Give it to him, let him order."
The manager nodded and handed the menu to Huang Lijun.
Huang Lijun took the menu and saw the price tags. His heart jumped. The cheapest item started at five yuan.
Zhao Caixia even snatched the menu and stuffed it back into the manager's hands.
"I don't like this private room. Are there any other options?"
The manager politely replied, "Yes, a bigger one."
"What's the point of having it so big? It's hard for the four of us to even pick up a dish."
"It's easy. Our table can rotate. You can just turn the dish you want to eat to your table."
Zhao Caixia glanced at the table and found that it was actually two-layered. She was surprised for a moment, then quickly looked away.
He straightened his body and held his chin high. "Of course I know this table can turn. But why would I bother turning it manually?"
"Besides, there's not a single dish on your menu that I like."
After saying that, he looked at Liang Xiulan and said, "Xiulan, let's go to another restaurant. I don't think there are any good dishes here."
At this time, Liang Xiulan was already eating the fruit on the table.
She turned her head and looked at Zhao Caixia, swallowed the apple in her mouth, and said in confusion: "Huh? But this is the most popular restaurant in Lin County."
"And I've already started eating, so I can't back out, right?"
As she spoke, she took another bite of the apple.
Zhao Caixia's blood pressure suddenly soared: "Tsk, you're already eating before anything's decided. You can't control your mouth like that. No wonder your husband wants you to starve!"
She and Huang Lijun looked at each other, helplessly accepting it. There were only four of them, and they probably wouldn't eat much. It was only a few dozen yuan, which they could still afford.
Liang Xiulan laughed playfully and ignored her, pointing to the menu and saying, "Give me a bowl of beef soup first! My husband said this soup is delicious!"
The manager immediately took out a pen and asked, "Okay, how many bowls of beef soup would you like?"
Jiang Jinzhou said, "I want a bowl too."
The manager looked at Huang Lijun and Zhao Caixia and asked, "Excuse me, would you like some?"
Huang Lijun leaned over to take a look at the price of the beef soup. A bowl cost eight yuan.
He suddenly felt pain in his flesh and quickly shook his head: "No! I don't like beef soup."
Seeing that he said no, Zhao Caixia stopped drinking too: "I don't like drinking either."
The manager ordered two bowls of beef soup and asked, "What else would you like to order?"
Jiang Jinzhou said, "Sweet and sour pork, my wife loves it."
"I want another dish of phytosanitary bacteria, it's nutritious."
"And your local specialty, garlic shrimp..."
Without even looking at the menu, he ordered four or five dishes in quick succession.
Huang Lijun felt his heart tremble with fear.
He snatched the menu away before the manager finished writing.
After a rough calculation, it was more than 90 yuan, and Jiang Jinzhou was still ordering dishes.
"If you want more..."
"What do you want? There are only four of us. Can we finish it?"
The manager reminded him, "Hello sir, our private room has a minimum consumption of 128. If you order less than 128, you will be at a disadvantage."
"What? One hundred and twenty-eight? You're forcing me to spend money?"
"Sir, I reminded you before entering the private room."
"Who did you remind me? I didn't hear you! You're just forcing me to consume!"
The manager looked at Jiang Jinzhou helplessly. Jiang Jinzhou chuckled and looked at Liang Xiulan again.
Liang Xiulan smacked her lips, took two steps forward, and sat on the chair.
"Caixia, it's only one hundred and twenty-eight. It's not very expensive. Your husband is a big boss, so he should be able to afford this little money, right?"
That's one hundred and twenty-eight, and she said it wasn't very expensive. Does this woman know how much one hundred and twenty-eight is?
Huang Lijun stiffened his neck and said stubbornly, "It's only one hundred and twenty-eight. Of course I can afford it, but I can't be taken advantage of. What kind of relationship do I have with you guys? Why would I treat you to such an expensive meal just by meeting you?"
Liang Xiulan looked innocent: "Caixia...it was you who said you wanted to treat us to a meal, and it was you who asked me to book the restaurant."
"But now..."
"Doesn't your husband want to invite you?"
"If you're not sincere about this, then forget it. Maybe in your husband's mind, your friend isn't worth such an expensive meal, right?"
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Jinzhou and said coquettishly, "Hubby... I'm so hungry..."
Jiang Jinzhou immediately said to the manager, "You can order the rest of the dishes. Serve the beef soup and crispy yam first. My wife is anxious to eat."
"Okay!" The manager nodded and walked out quickly with the menu.
Jiang Jinzhou put his hands in his pockets and looked at Zhao Caixia and her husband. "This gentleman is right. This is our first meeting, so there's really no need to treat us to such an expensive meal."
"Actually, I hadn't originally planned to let you treat me to this meal. My wife told me that you just came back from out of town, and you grew up together, so you must have a very good relationship. I was thinking of treating you well today, but now it seems that it's not necessary."
"The friendship between you two shouldn't be worth that price."
After that, he said to Liang Xiulan: "Wait here for a while, I'll go out and make a phone call and come back."
Liang Xiulan nodded: "Yes!"
Zhao Caixia was furious when she heard Jiang Jinzhou's sarcasm.
In the end, is it that friendship is not worth the price, or is it that Zhao Caixia and her husband are not worth the price? They both know it for themselves.
Suddenly, he rolled his eyes: "Tsk, it's your treat!"
"Stop trying to be so arrogant. One hundred and twenty-eight is equivalent to two months' salary for you."
"You're a bricklayer on a construction site, and you're quite concerned about your reputation."
Jiang Jinzhou ignored her and strode out of the private room.
Zhao Caixia sneered, crossed her arms and said, "Xiu Lan, look at the man you married. He pretends to be rich in front of others, but in private he tortures you and doesn't let you eat or drink."
"Can you tolerate such a person?"
"Everyone envied you for marrying a rich man, but unexpectedly, he was a fake, haha!"
"If you marry this kind of person, I think you will be poor for the rest of your life."
