She didn't want to step forward and let too many people know that she opened the store.
First of all, she is a woman. Although Daqian's restrictions on women are not very strict, it is indeed not very convenient compared to men. Secondly, her identity as the fake daughter of the Marquis's mansion is really a topic of conversation.
If it gets out that day, it might cause trouble for the Marquis's Mansion.
Although not scary, it is extremely annoying.
If you have that much time, you might as well take more classes.
Gu Jiayue didn't know that because of her decision, she missed many wonderful plots.
Kangzi saw Gu Jiayue's actions and quickly understood.
In that case, he raised his hands and signaled the onlookers to be quiet.
"Everyone, welcome to Mingrentang's grand opening ceremony. To give back to our customers, everyone who enters the store today will receive a 10% discount. For more special offers, please visit us!"
After Kangzi finished speaking, he reached out and tore off the red cloth on the plaque.
The three big characters "Mingren Hall" come into view.
"Mingren Hall? I can't tell what it does just by listening to the name."
"It should be a food shop. Yesterday I saw Wang Er from East Street delivering some fruits to them."
"Oh? We haven't had lunch yet, so why don't we go in and take a look?"
"Okay, okay, please..."
This scene caught the eyes of two young ladies standing nearby. Listening to the discussion among the people, they also became curious. "Cousin, why don't we go in and take a look?"
"good."
The two young ladies entered Mingren Hall and were stunned.
There were five long rows of tables in the middle of the first floor. The three rows on the left were filled with cakes they had never seen before, while the two rows on the right were filled with colorful glasses and bowls of wine.
It should be alcohol, right?
"It smells so good. It feels like entering a bee's home." The petite woman rushed in with shining eyes.
"This place is quite unusual."
The woman called Sister Wang walked behind with a smile, slowly admiring the scene.
"My dear ladies, please take your time to look around. If you like anything, please tick it off the list or tell me directly. Our waiter will then serve fresh food to you."
Pan'er was originally a beggar on East Street. Half a month ago, she came here to beg as usual. She happened to meet Kangzi who was watching the renovation.
Seeing that she was almost starving to death, Kangzi felt pity for her. Not only did he give her food, he also asked her if she was willing to work in the store.
Of course I am willing. I can get paid by working. Who would want to beg when they have money?
She agreed immediately. Kangzi took him to a nearby clinic for a checkup, and after confirming that he had no illness, he kept her.
After a period of training, Panpan unsurprisingly performed the best among the waiters.
"Oh? I've never seen such a way of dining. Sister Yao, why not try it?" Zheng Yunxi took the list handed over by Panpan and asked the girl next to her with a smile.
The girl called Yaomei smiled widely. "Cousin, if you don't tell me to try it, I'm going to cry. These cakes smell so good, and they're all things I've never tasted before."
“I want to try them all.”
Song Yao loves to eat, and she couldn't resist any longer. If her mother hadn't told her to put her cousin first before she left, she would have definitely bought everything.
"Okay, just draw something you like here." Zheng Yunxi picked up the charcoal pencil tied with a rope.
The two little sisters began to choose.
"Okay, that's all."
Looking at the list that was mostly checked off, Pan'er's smile grew even more welcoming. "Okay, both of you, come this way."
Pan Er led them to the cashier, where a long line had already formed. They had all already chosen their items and were ready to pay.
"Waiter, do you pay first and then eat here?"
Pan'er nodded. "Yes, Miss. Because there are so many customers, and we can deliver or take out, we don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so everyone pays first and eats later."
"If you two find it difficult to wait, you can give me some money. I will queue up here on your behalf, which is the same as the others."
The prices are stated on the back of the order sheet, so as long as you order good things you can actually calculate the cost yourself.
"It's okay, we can do it ourselves." Zheng Yunxi refused.
The main reason was that she and her cousin felt that this store was extremely novel, and they wanted to experience everything.
"Okay, ladies."
The cashiers have all undergone long-term training and can calculate the amount of money required quickly and accurately.
I watched as the customer paid the bill. The cashier wrote a few numbers on it. "Table 89, two people."
After saying that, Pan'er, who was standing by, stepped forward. "Ladies, your seats are over here. Please follow me."
Under Pan'er's guidance, Zheng Yunxi and Song Yao were led to a table.
"Ladies, this is your seat. There are storybooks and poems on the bookshelf next to you. If you feel bored, you can take a look. If you don't want to read, there are a lot of entertainment toys in the right front. Ladies, you can also go there to play. But be sure to remember your number, otherwise the waiter will not be able to find you when he delivers the food."
Panpan pointed out different places for the two of them.
Zheng Yunxi had already noticed that right next to where they were standing was a whole wall of bookshelves filled with numerous storybooks, travelogues, poems, and other books.
In the other direction were many toys that they had seen and had not seen before.
"Cousin, I saw Zhang's sister. Shall we go over and take a look?" Song Yao pointed to the toy area.
Zheng Yunxi looked over and saw the young lady from the Zhang family playing the game of tossing a pot.
"good."
When he arrived at the toy area, Zheng Yunxi discovered that there was a lot of fun in there. Not only could he play tossing pots, but he could also play chess, cards, and so on.
Especially that card, there are actually different ways to play it. Sometimes it's Monopoly, sometimes it's Landlord, and sometimes it's Werewolf.
Zheng Yunxi couldn't help but wonder what kind of genius this boss was to be able to come up with so many novel ways of playing.
After playing together for a while, the familiar and unfamiliar people gradually forgot the purpose of their trip.
"Number 89? Where is guest number 89?"
Song Yao peeled the paper off her face and asked, "Cousin, are we number 89?"
Zheng Yunxi took out her number plate and said, "Yes, we are number 89. Our things should be ready. Ye'er, go and take a look."
She really wanted to go by herself, but at that moment she was holding the landlord cards and was about to win, and she didn't want to throw away the cards and admit defeat.
"Yes, miss."
After receiving the lady's instructions, Ye Er took the number plate and walked to table 89. She looked at the cakes piled all over the table, which were emitting a charming aroma.
These are all made fresh, and are certainly more indulgent than something displayed on a table.
Zheng Yunxi finally won, and he pulled the reluctant Song Yao over. "Don't be angry, let's go find something to eat first, and then come back to play."
Song Yao could only follow reluctantly.
But when she saw the cake on the table, her dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.
"Oh my god, it smells so good, I can't help it."
The upbringing she received made her try her best to restrain herself, but one could still see her impatience in her actions.
Use a disposable bamboo spoon to cut the cream on the surface to reveal the bread and jam inside.
With a little force from the spoon, the cake went into her mouth. "Wow! Cousin, try it! This 'Flourishing Summer' actually tastes like peony flowers!"
"This 'Cloudy Star' is also delicious. It has a light grassy flavor, but if you taste it carefully, you can also find a slight bitterness. But it's not unpalatable at all."
After eating the cake, Song Yao reached out for the milk tea beside her.
