“This is…” Looking at the donkey, she had a vague answer in her mind.
Sure enough, Gu Yanbai revealed the answer directly, "Aren't you going to do tofu business?"
I was thinking that buying a donkey would make things easier.
So today I went to the livestock market and saw that this donkey was in good condition, so I bought it.
Later on, it will come in handy for things like grinding grain, delivering goods, and going to the market.
"Gu Yanbai, that's wonderful. But buying a donkey must have cost a lot of money!"
She remembered that donkeys weren't cheap; they must have cost at least several hundred!
This person is really getting better and better!
"Don't worry, I still have enough money to buy you a donkey."
Gu Yanliu had been holding back for a long time, and seeing him lead them into the backyard of the restaurant with ease, she tolerated it.
But who told her that there was a donkey tied up in the backyard?
Restaurants are places that serve food; wouldn't they mind if donkeys were dirty?
Moreover, it was the Siyuan Hotel, the most upscale hotel in town.
"Brother, is this owned by your friend?"
"Or perhaps we should hurry and lead the donkey away, lest we make a mess of their land."
"Don't worry. We can leave the donkey here whenever we want, and no one will say anything."
"Since we're here, let's have dinner at the shop today before we go back!" Gu Yanbai looked at her and smiled.
“Brother, you mean…” Gu Yanliu’s eyes held a hint of expectation.
"Yes, just like you imagined." Su Nianxue helped her tidy her long hair.
"My brother is going to treat us to dinner at Siyuan Restaurant?" Gu Yanliu blinked, her face beaming with excitement.
But soon, she looked conflicted again, "It sounds good! But how much will it cost?"
I heard that eating here isn't cheap.
Everyone knows about eating out, but restaurant food is so expensive! With that money, you could buy a lot of meat.
Su Nianxue glanced at Gu Yanbai and smiled, "It's free for our family to eat out."
"Brother, you and your friend who owns the restaurant are pretty close, aren't you?"
Upon realizing this possibility, Gu Yanliu quickly jumped in front of Gu Yanbai, her bright eyes fixed on him.
Gu Yanbai teased her intentionally, "Yes, we have a very good relationship, so good that..."
"What's so good about it? Just tell me!" Gu Yanliu was getting impatient. Why was she being so mysterious?
Su Nianxue tugged at Gu Yanbai's sleeve, "Alright, stop teasing her. Let me tell you, this restaurant is owned by your brother!"
Gu Yanliu was only surprised for a moment before quickly accepting it.
In her heart, her brother was an extremely capable person, so it's not surprising that he managed to run such a restaurant.
"No wonder my brother spent those two years in town every day, and you wouldn't see him for ten days or half a month."
So you were busy with restaurant matters!
She immediately felt a sense of triumph.
It's ridiculous how those people in the village are finding all sorts of ways to slander her brother.
They say her brother is idle and doesn't do any proper work, just wandering around outside all day. Who knows what illegal things he might be doing?
She secretly thought that if the villagers knew that the most prestigious restaurant in town was owned by her brother, they would be shocked.
Let them look down on us!
Should!
"Brother, you know, you're clearly busy with important matters, so why don't you give any hints?"
To let people talk about you like that, the villagers said such awful things!
And almost even his wife…
She swallowed the words she was about to say. "Brother, you've already gotten married, why bring this up again?"
Gu Yanbai held his head high, "Why should I explain to people? Do I have that much free time?"
I don't care about their opinions.
Let them say whatever they want!
As for getting a wife, I told my father long ago not to worry about it, but he insisted on making a fuss. What can I do?
Besides, it's not that I can't get married, it's that I've always wanted to avoid it.
He gave Su Nianxue a meaningful look.
Su Nianxue smiled, a suspicious blush creeping onto her face, and changed the subject with a laugh.
"Alright, how long are you two going to keep arguing? Aren't you tired? Let's go to the store first, I'm starving."
As soon as food was mentioned, Gu Yanliu immediately changed her mind, "Let's go eat something delicious!"
"Tsk tsk, I never thought I, Gu Yanliu, would one day be able to freely enter and leave the Siyuan Hotel."
"That's because of your sister-in-law." Gu Yanbai smiled as he looked at her greedy expression.
"Yes, yes, I really have to thank my sister-in-law."
Not only did they help me make money, they also took me to restaurants.
Anyway, he's better than my heartless older brother." Gu Yanliu held Su Nianxue's wrist and glanced meaningfully at Gu Yanbai.
"Hey, you little rascal, you're pretty vengeful!"
"Who told you not to tell me? I'm your own sister, and you even kept it from me." Gu Yanliu was a little unhappy, her lips pouting.
"Alright, alright, you can eat whatever you want for lunch today. You can come whenever you want in the future, okay? Consider it an apology to you," Su Nianxue quickly coaxed.
"Fine, I'll come every day from now on, and I'll make my brother furious." Gu Yanliu's temper flared up quickly, but it also subsided just as fast.
"Okay, okay, you can come every day from now on! Eat whatever you want, I won't even flinch!" Gu Yanbai touched his nose a little guiltily.
He didn't intend to hide it from her.
But he's always been used to his freedom and doesn't like to explain his affairs to others, so this is why...
Upon arriving at the restaurant, the three of them sat down in a corner against the wall.
Su Nianxue pointed to the blackboard on the wall and said to her, "Order whatever you want to eat!"
"Okay, then I'll have to order a lot more dishes today. Who told my brother to lie to me for so long?" She was still upset about what Gu Yanbai had kept from her.
"Okay, go ahead and order."
But we need to make one thing clear first: once you order, you have to finish it. We don't tolerate waste.
"Of course, am I that kind of person?" She was also a farmer.
Knowing how difficult it is to harvest a season's crops, they naturally wouldn't want to waste food.
"Anyway, now that I know this restaurant belongs to you, I'll come here to eat every few days from now on."
"I have to try all the dishes in your restaurant." She ordered several dishes without any hesitation.
"Fine, whatever you want, you can come every day." Gu Yanbai knew he was in the wrong, so he went along with her.
However, Gu Yanliu soon asked again, "Brother, what is fish-flavored eggplant?"
Can eggplant be made into a fish-fragrant dish? Or should the eggplant be cooked with fish?
There is no fish in the fish-flavored eggplant.
"You're right, it's about adding some prepared sauce to the eggplant to make it taste like fish." Gu Yanbai explained to him what he knew.
"Oh, I thought there were fish pieces in there!"
"Alright, let's order another braised fish separately. Oh, and a big bone broth too, my sister-in-law likes it." Gu Yanliu quickly ordered the dishes.
Although she was angry that Gu Yanbai had deliberately kept it from her, she still hadn't forgotten that he liked to eat braised fish.
