"Please wait a moment, guests. The shopkeeper has already given orders. All dishes will be served first to these distinguished guests. They will be served soon." The waiter nodded respectfully.
"I understand. You go down and get busy first." Qingzhu said lightly.
"Yes, yes, Master Qingzhu, I will withdraw now. If you need anything, just give me a call and I will be waiting outside the door." After the waiter said this, he bowed and retreated.
"Uncle Xu, Young Master Xu, this tea is the best Biluochun tea that the young master specially kept for you, Uncle Xu and Young Master Xu." Qingzhu said.
"I'm sorry to trouble Chenyu." Uncle Xu said with some emotion.
"Miss, the capital city is really prosperous, the scenery is beautiful, and the Zuixian Tower is so big. Fuqiu is almost dazzled by it." Fuqiu looked around the entire box curiously.
Seeing that there was a closed window in the box, he said, "Miss, Fuqiu, please open the window and let in some fresh air."
Qibao nodded upon hearing this.
After getting Qibao's consent, Fuqiu opened the window.
"Miss, look, there are so many people outside, it's so lively." Fuqiu said excitedly.
Qibao leaned over the window and looked down. Behind the Zuixianlou was a wide street, which was also very lively. There were hawkers' cries one after another, selling all kinds of things, and the atmosphere was full of the market.
This scene is very similar to the one in the Qingming Shanghe Tu that Qibao had seen in his previous life.
The master and servant sat by the window and watched with great interest.
About half an incense stick of time had passed, but the waiter and his men placed all the steaming dishes on the table, so many that they could hardly fit them all.
"Mr. Qingzhu, all the dishes are served. Please enjoy your meal." After the waiter said this, he hurriedly led his guests out of the private room.
Looking at the dishes on the table, some of them were vegetables brought from Xujia Village, and the others were meat.
Everyone sat down and Uncle Xu said, "Let's wait for Chenyu to come and eat together." After all, they were being treated by someone else, so they had to wait for the host to arrive before they, the guests, could start eating.
"Uncle Xu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Chen Yu is late!"
At this time, a voice with some excitement sounded, and Qu Chenyu walked in hurriedly.
When Su Chenyu saw the Xu family, his mouth almost stretched to his ears. He really missed the Xu family, not only because they cared for him as if he were their own child, but more importantly, he felt like a child who never grew up in the Xu family and could enjoy the warmth and innocence without restraint.
"Chenyu, you're finally here!" Uncle Xu stood up and greeted with a smile.
"Brother Su!"
"Brother Chenyu."
The Xu brothers and sisters also greeted with a smile.
Su Chenyu walked over and gave each of the brothers a bear hug. Then she stroked Qibao's head and said, "The little girl has grown a lot taller and become more beautiful. She has become a grown-up girl. I'm so happy to see you again."
"Thank you for taking the trouble to send Chenyu, your friend Qingzhu, to pick us up, and also for preparing such a sumptuous meal on the table," said Uncle Xu.
"Uncle Xu, you are still being so polite to me. Do you treat Chenyu as an outsider? What I eat at Xu's house is incomparable to these. I am just welcoming you." Su Chenyu said.
"Chenyu, that's not what I meant. You are like my own child. I just heard from Qingzhu that you have kept this box just to entertain us. I feel a little embarrassed." Uncle Xu said with a smile.
"Since he is our own child, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Everyone, please sit down quickly, otherwise it will be bad if the table gets cold. Let's eat and talk at the same time." Su Chenyu said.
Everyone sat down and looked at the dishes on the table. They were really delicious and they were indeed hungry.
"Uncle Xu, Sister Qibao, let me introduce these dishes to you. This is crystal plum blossom cake, this is wild duck and peach kernel cubes, this is braised fish maw rolls, this is lotus leaf chicken, this is salt-fried pork, this is fragrant cooked spore spine, and this is..."
After reading a bunch of dishes, Su Chenyu, feeling a little thirsty, picked up the cup and took a sip. Then he smiled again and said, "I don't need to mention these. You are all familiar with them."
What he was talking about were the greenhouse vegetables sent from Xujia Village.
"I haven't eaten the eggplants I grew myself for a long time. I miss them so much." Xiao Wu couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, squinting his eyes and chewing with enjoyment.
Everyone was a little hungry. They had been sitting in the carriage for a long time, which had really hurt their stomachs. Sometimes, in order to hurry on their way, they just had a quick bite of dry food to fill their stomachs.
Now seeing this huge table full of delicious food, I really can’t help myself.
"Everyone, please don't be polite and eat quickly." Su Chenyu called out and picked up his chopsticks. There were no etiquettes for eating at home. He felt very relaxed eating with the Xu family. At the same time, he asked if the journey was smooth and whether they encountered any troubles.
Most of the time, Xiaowu, who had been holding it in all the way, chattered while eating and talking about what happened on the road.
After about half an hour, everyone felt their bloated stomachs and leaned back with a sigh of comfort.
Zuixianlou is worthy of being the largest restaurant in Beijing. The dishes are quite delicious. Not only are they exquisite, but they also taste very good. No wonder the business is so booming.
"Brother Su, when we just walked in, we saw that Zuixianlou was packed. Business is so good, it must be making a lot of money, right?" Xiaowu asked curiously.
"That's true, but the biggest credit goes to your vegetables. Generally, those who come to Zuixianlou for dinner are either officials or wealthy businessmen's families. They are tired of eating big fish and meat, but these vegetables are more to their taste, not to mention being able to eat these delicious vegetables in winter. Moreover, these vegetables are not available in other places, only Zuixianlou has them. There are always queues of guests who make reservations every day!" Su Chenyu said.
"Hehe, of course the vegetables grown by my sister are delicious. Only my sister has this ability. No one else's sister is as good as my sister." Xiao Wu said proudly.
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this, and no one present did not nod in agreement.
"Uncle Xu, Sister Qibao, Brother Wenwu and Brother Xiaowu, I have already arranged accommodation for you. The surroundings are relatively quiet and very suitable for studying. I will take you to see it later. I don't know if you are satisfied." Su Chenyu said.
"How can we not be satisfied? We are already content to have a place to live. Thank you so much Chenyu. You should also thank your brother Su." Uncle Xu was so moved that he thanked him again.
"Thank you, Brother Su!"
The three siblings all expressed their gratitude, and their gratitude was sincere. If it weren't for Su Chenyu, no matter how powerful Qibao was, he would have to find an inn to stay in first. Buying a house in the capital would also require some effort.
"Why are you being so polite? Don't forget, I've also benefited a lot from the Xu family. The profit I make from the fruit wine business is more than that from my Zuixianlou. If anyone wants to thank you, I should be the one." Su Chenyu said.
"Brother Su, what does your family do? We have arrived in Beijing. Once we settle down, we will visit you at your house if we have the chance." Xiao Wu asked curiously.
