Manager Li greeted her with a smile, cupped his hands in a fist and bowed to Madam Jiao, saying, "Thank you, madam, for clearing our master's name. Please come in and have a cup of tea!"
Mrs. Jiao smiled and nodded, then went inside with Manager Li.
Manager Li specially found the best private room on the first floor to warmly entertain Mrs. Jiao.
After chatting for a while, Manager Li sincerely invited her to stay for a meal: "It's almost time to eat, but unfortunately the owner has to go out and can't personally entertain you, Madam. How about I treat you to a simple meal at the shop? I hope you'll do me the honor."
After hesitating for a moment, Jiao's mother said, "Can I see my son first? I don't know how he is now!"
"Very well, I understand your feelings about coming all the way to Chongqing to visit your children. Where does your son live? I'll send someone to take you there right away!"
After thinking for a moment, Jiao's mother said with some difficulty, "I don't know where my son lives, but I know where he studies!"
That makes things much easier!
Manager Li immediately summoned Xiao Ba (a beggar boy picked up by Jiang Huai) from the lobby and asked him to take Jiao's mother to find her son.
As soon as Jiao's mother and the others left, Aunt Hong came over excitedly from the second shop with a young man. She immediately said to Manager Li, "Quickly, quickly, we have distinguished guests coming from afar today. Tell the kitchen to prepare some of our best dishes to entertain them properly!"
Manager Li laughed and said, "What kind of distinguished guests haven't we seen in our shop? What distinguished guest could be more important than royalty?"
Aunt Hong smiled mysteriously and said, "This person is even more powerful than royalty! Ah Sheng, come, come, let Aunt Hong introduce you!"
