When Lu Wanling and the others were tired from playing, they came back from the pedestrian street and saw a lot of people queuing in front of the store.
Liu Fenlin said with some surprise, "This really is Hai Donghe's shop?"
Her husband, Yue Kang, exclaimed in surprise, "I never expected business to be so good!"
My second cousin's family was also very surprised.
Lu Wanling smiled and said, "This looks a bit like when our family restaurant first opened. I wonder how business was at our family restaurant during the May Day holiday this year?"
Lu Chengzong said, "It shouldn't be bad either, after all, crayfish is a specialty of Haidong restaurants."
Lin Guojin said, "Yes, no matter how many other restaurants or eateries serve crayfish, none can compare to Haidong's skills. As long as your family restaurant sticks to Haidong's techniques, business will definitely be good."
Looking at the long line of people in front of the store, Lu Yue asked with a puzzled expression, "How do we get in?"
Feng Qifan said, "We can't go in. Dad's shop is too busy, it's packed with people. We can't eat in the shop tonight."
Liu Fenxiu's husband, Yu Jun, said, "Auntie, Uncle, Uncle, Aunt, how about this: we'll go find a restaurant tonight, have dinner, and then go to the park near the pedestrian street to see the night view. When it's about time, we'll head back to Haidong."
Looking at the long queue in front of him, Feng Chungu could only say, "It seems that's the only way."
Liu Guifang said, both amused and exasperated, "We own a restaurant, yet we still have to eat at other people's restaurants."
Lu Wanling said, "Mom, if you want to eat, we can go in and ask Haidong to make arrangements for us."
Liu Guifang said, "No need, no need. Let Haidong and your eldest sister make money. We'll go eat somewhere else."
Yu Jun immediately added, "Auntie, since you've come to the provincial capital, you should try some local cuisine. I know a good restaurant; let's go there to eat."
Feng Chun-gu said, "Isn't that a bit much? Just eat something simple for dinner."
Liu Fenxiu and Liu Fenlin naturally disagreed, but after everyone persuaded them, Feng Chungu had no choice but to agree.
Then this time, the group walked to the intersection, and Yu Jun hailed several taxis. The whole family took a taxi together to the restaurant that Yu Jun had mentioned.
Upon arriving at their destination, Feng Chungu and Lu Chengzong immediately realized where they were.
Feng Chungu said, "Yu Jun, how did you end up bringing us here?"
Lu Chengzong said with a smile, "This is no ordinary restaurant. It used to be a restaurant for entertaining foreign guests. How expensive is it to eat here?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Guifang exclaimed, "No, no, we can't eat here. It's too expensive."
The two sisters, Liu Fenxiu and Liu Fenlin, immediately went to Liu Guifang's house.
Liu Fenlin said, "Auntie, it's rare for us to come over for a meal, so today it's on our two families' behalf to treat you, your husband, and your parents-in-law from Haidong. Don't worry about the expense."
Liu Fenxiu chimed in, "Yes, yes, Auntie, let's eat here just this once. Since we're already here, let's go in."
Ultimately, it was only through the efforts of the Liu sisters, Liu Fenxiu and Liu Fenlin, that Liu Guifang reluctantly went into the restaurant with them.
It must be said that this is indeed a very high-end restaurant.
After entering the main gate, the first thing you see is a very large courtyard with pavilions and towers.
It gives one the feeling of being in an ancient garden.
Not to mention the younger children Lu Yue and Feng Qifan, even Yu Xiangyang and Yue Rujuan were dazzled and completely stunned by the sight.
Lu Yue exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, have we entered a park? Are we going to eat in the park?"
Lin Guojin smiled and pulled his granddaughter along, saying, "This isn't a park; this is the greenery inside a restaurant. It's a very famous restaurant in the provincial capital, located within a garden."
Lu Yue continued, "Grandma, you'll definitely have a great time eating here. It's so beautiful."
Yue Rujuan said from the side, "I've only heard of this place before, this is my first time here."
Then Yue Rujuan asked Yu Xiangyang, "Brother, have you been here before?"
Yu Xiangyang shook his head: "I've only ever passed by the entrance; I've never come in."
Yue Rujuan then asked her parents, "Mom and Dad, have you eaten here before?"
Yue Kang said with a smile, "Your mother and I have definitely never been here, but your great-uncle should have eaten here. Back then, your great-uncle held a very high position in the provincial capital."
Yue Rujuan immediately looked at Feng Chungu and asked, "Grandpa, have you been here before?"
Feng Chungu said, "I have indeed been here before. I have carried out many missions here before, mainly responsible for security work. I have also eaten here a few times, but we were always in the kitchen, eating our meals with the staff here."
Yue Rujuan immediately exclaimed, "Wow, Grandpa, you've done security work here before? Was it for our leader?"
Feng Chungu nodded: "Yes, back then this place was responsible for receiving leaders and provincial meetings, but we were no longer responsible for security when the provincial meetings were held here."
Yu Xiangyang understood the implication: "Grandpa, you should have met the national leaders, right?"
Yu Jun whispered a few names to his son, which immediately filled Yu Xiangyang with respect.
Yue Rujuan was also very curious, and soon Yue Kang told his daughter as well.
Yue Rujuan almost exclaimed in surprise.
Feng Qifan was also very curious. He leaned closer to his grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, what kind of people have you been in charge of security for?"
Feng Chungu bent down and smiled as she spoke a few words to her grandson.
