Fu Yunzheng looked at her with smiles in his eyes. He was so lucky to meet such an easy-to-talk-to girl.
After strolling around for a while, it was almost lunchtime, so they headed to Sichuan and Chongqing Cuisine and found a table. The restaurant was quite large, and the ambiance was quite pleasant. The wooden tables and chairs were simple and elegant, and the walls were covered in paintings of mountains, rivers, and birds. There were also wooden hollow screens for partitions.
The waiter had already come over to greet us warmly and handed us a menu.
The antique menu was thick, and when I opened it, I found that it was written in small calligraphy with a brush, handwritten.
Bai Yalan took a look and smiled, "This handwriting is good."
Fu Yunzheng also smiled gently and said, "Well, this is an old shop that has been open for many years. The owner has good taste."
He guessed that Bai Yalan would like this quaint and elegant environment, but he didn't expect that she also had a good appreciation for calligraphy, and he couldn't help but admire her even more.
"Captain Fu, what do you want to eat?" Bai Yalan asked while looking at the menu.
Fu Yunzheng said, "I'm fine with anything. Just order whatever dishes you like."
Bai Yalan didn't bother to be polite with him. "Hey, I'll order first. We'll order more if it's not enough. Let's start with the fish-flavored shredded pork and spicy chicken, and a stir-fried three fresh vegetables. Oh, and a spicy soup. That's all for now."
The waiter took note of the meal, which consisted of three dishes and a soup. Fu Yunzheng raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but remind him, "Is that all? It's rare for you to come out for a meal, why don't you order a few more? You don't have to save money for me."
Bai Yalan took a sip of the tea that the waiter had just poured. The fragrance of the tea filled the air and left a lingering taste in her mouth.
Her mood brightened, and she smiled earnestly, "I'm not trying to save you money. I just think three dishes and a soup are enough for two people. There's no need to waste... Of course, if it's not enough later, we can always order more."
Fu Yunzheng understood and appreciated her, but also felt a bit complicated. She was so easy to talk to, which made him, a grown man, feel a little embarrassed.
There is no man who doesn't want to be more generous in front of a woman, especially the woman he likes, but he can't do anything about her.
"Then it's all up to you," he said.
The waiter couldn't help but laugh, "Hey, please wait a moment, my two guests. I'll go and ask the chef to cook." He looked at Bai Yalan and said to Fu Yunzheng, "This woman is really frugal. She's a person who lives a good life. She's very lucky."
In one sentence, both of them blushed.
Fu Yunzheng was rarely so embarrassed, and after a while he said, "Yeah, yes."
He was quite blessed. Bai Yalan felt very embarrassed and changed the subject, saying, "This is as it should be. Chairman Mao said that every grain of rice and every porridge is hard-earned, and not a single needle or thread should be wasted. They all come from the people, the fruits of the laboring people's blood, sweat and tears. We must not waste them casually."
The waitress left with a smile. Fu Yunzheng looked at her with a smile, nodding repeatedly, "That's right. Comrade Bai Yalan, it seems that my ideological awareness is not enough. I still need to learn from you."
Bai Yalan pretended to be embarrassed and annoyed, "You are making fun of me again."
Fu Yunzheng chuckled, "I dare not, I dare not!"
After a short wait, the steaming hot three dishes and one soup were served on the table. The bright red color and rich aroma made people's appetite increase.
Bai Yalan first filled a small bowl of soup and drank it. It was sour and spicy, delicious and particularly appetizing. She obviously enjoyed the food very much. A thin layer of sweat oozed out of her delicate nose. Fu Yunzheng casually pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to her. Bai Yalan looked at him, smiling and annoyed, "Don't always take care of me. I'm not a child. You should eat too."
As he spoke, he took the initiative to help him fill a large bowl of rice. Fu Yunzheng was a man, so he must have a big appetite.
