Then, after looking at the two of them, he quickly thought of something and hurriedly said, "It's rare to run into you like this. Let me treat you to a meal. Their roast goose is delicious. Her Majesty used to love eating here."
Upon hearing this, Si Lan was somewhat tempted, but did not immediately agree. Instead, she turned to Si Luo and asked, "Brother, is it alright?"
Si Luo smiled and said, "Since Miss Su is treating, then it would be impolite to refuse."
Su Qianqian paused for a moment, then said shyly, "I'm glad you don't mind. Eating is more lively with more people. Let's go in quickly."
After saying that, she enthusiastically took Si Lan's hand and rushed into Qingfeng Pavilion, looking as if she was afraid that someone would take her place.
Si Luo followed leisurely behind the two.
Once inside the reserved private room, Su Qianqian asked the waiter to bring out one of each of the restaurant's signature dishes.
She paused, then looked at the brother and sister questioningly, "Do you drink? Would you like some wine?" Before they could answer, she continued, "The Empress said that roast goose must be eaten with wine to taste good, and the pear blossom wine at Qingfeng Pavilion is very good. How about we have a pot first?"
Si Lan chuckled, "Well, we'll go along with whatever the host says. Just keep an eye on things."
Upon hearing this, Su Qianqian immediately instructed the waiter to make the arrangements.
After the others left, she got up and poured them a cup of tea, then opened the window.
The window of this private room faces the river outside, and a gentle breeze blows across the water, bringing a touch of coolness.
Su Qianqian beckoned Si Lan over, "Si Lan, come here quickly."
Si Lan had no choice but to get up and go over.
"Standing here and looking at the scenery outside is quite nice," Su Qianqian said, resting one hand on the windowsill and enjoying the view.
Upon hearing this, Si Lan couldn't help but turn to look at her.
Her eyes are big and round, and her face is also round and a little chubby, making her look rosy and very cute.
She couldn't help but reach out and touch her face.
The soft, bouncy texture is very comfortable to the touch.
"Qianqian, you're so cute," Si Lan couldn't help but say.
Upon hearing this, Su Qianqian blushed, touched her chubby face, and said with some distress, "I have too much fat."
"No, don't think like that. I think you're just fine the way you are," Si Lan said sincerely.
Su Qianqian is a very optimistic person. She blinked and said, "Thank you, I feel comforted." Then, she pointed to the ducks in the river below and said happily, "Look, so many ducks."
Both of them came from wealthy families and were quite curious about these small animals that were common in rural areas.
"Really, there are so many! Some are black-haired, and some are white-haired. Brother, come and see!" Si Lan turned to call to Si Luo.
Si Luo was both amused and exasperated, remaining seated. "Si Lan, I've seen her before. You can see for yourselves."
Upon hearing this, Si Lan shrugged and squeezed with Su Qianqian by the window to watch the ducks in the river.
A short while later, the waiter brought the dishes up.
Su Qianqian smelled the fragrance and quickly pulled Si Lan to sit down at the table.
The table was already laden with delicious food.
There was Su Qianqian's favorite roast goose and braised lion's head meatballs, as well as squirrel-shaped mandarin fish and eight-treasure duck.
However, although she enjoys eating, she knows to serve the two guests first.
She took the serving chopsticks and served them some dishes that she thought were delicious.
"You should try it. Qingfeng Pavilion not only has delicious wine, but their dishes are also very good."
When Si Lan saw that Si Luo had put a fish on her plate, she wanted to say something, but Si Luo smiled and ate the fish, so she didn't say anything.
My brother hates eating fish, but surprisingly he ate it this time.
"Si Lan, you should eat too." Su Qianqian, completely unaware of what was happening, urged Si Lan, who remained seated.
"Okay." Si Lan smiled.
Even people with poor appetites can easily become cravings when eating with Su Qianqian.
Si Lan ate two bowls of rice without realizing it.
She rubbed her full stomach and said with some distress, "Qianqian, I don't dare to eat with you next time."
Su Qianqian was taken aback. "Why?" Could it be that she hadn't taken good care of her?
“It’s easy to overeat when I eat with you,” Si Lan said helplessly.
Hearing this, Su Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. "Then you should eat with me. You're too thin; you should eat more." With that, she picked up the wine pot beside her and poured a cup of wine for the two of them. "Drink this wine; don't waste it."
So the three of them finished the whole pot of wine.
Although Su Qianqian was supposed to treat, Si Luo stopped her when it came time to pay the bill and settled it himself.
Su Qianqian felt very embarrassed about this.
"It's a deal, it's my treat."
"It's alright. Actually, we were planning to eat at Qingfeng Pavilion, but we were worried there wouldn't be any seats. Luckily, we ran into you," Si Lan said with a smile, taking her hand.
