Liu Chuyu peeked out from under the counter, about to greet the guests. But upon seeing that it was these three good-for-nothing spoiled brats, he immediately withdrew his words, his face turning indifferent.
If it weren't for his duty, he wouldn't even bother to roll his eyes at these three people.
Li Kelan, as if he had discovered something new, pointed at Liu Chuyu and laughed, "Haha, so it really is Liu Chuyu. The son of a dignified county magistrate is actually doing odd jobs here, haha..."
Cheng Fang also found it interesting. "Brother Li, please don't say that. Brother Chu Yu has come here to experience the hardships of life. I didn't believe it when the people from the academy told me you were here, but seeing you here today, it's true."
The way Cheng Fang said it sounded like he was asking for a beating.
Liu Chuyu looked at the two of them and said calmly, "What are you doing here? Get out."
The three of them weren't angry at being scolded; instead, they acted like mangy dogs.
"Hey, Brother Chu Yu, this is a restaurant, of course we're here to eat."
"Yes, that's not the right attitude. No other waiter would turn away a customer like that."
"A waiter should act like a waiter, get us some seats."
The three men kept calling each other "waiter," as if waiters were the lowest of the low in their eyes.
Making Liu Chuyu do this made them feel superior.
Liu Chuyu was already furious when he saw the three of them, and their words only made him more agitated. He felt like rushing up and punching them.
But this is Aunt He's shop; if he gets into a fight, he probably won't be able to do business this morning.
Forget it, making money is the most important thing.
Seeing that Liu Chuyu remained unmoved, the three assumed he was afraid, so they became even more arrogant.
"Hurry up, find a seat for the guest."
Zhao Dahai had noticed this place long ago, and saw that these three guests looked both dignified and like they wanted to cause trouble.
He hesitated for a moment, but then came over cheerfully, "Please come in, gentlemen."
Cheng Fang and the others remained unmoved, their eyes fixed on Liu Chuyu behind the counter.
After a standoff with the three for a while, Liu Chuyu suddenly came up with a good idea.
"Alright, since the three of you are here to eat, you are guests of the restaurant. I will show you to your seats."
Then, Liu Chuyu led the three people inside and found a table facing the wall, where she had them sit down.
The three people were very dissatisfied. They felt cramped and couldn't see anything against the white wall.
However, there are many people in the lobby now, and it seems there are no other empty seats.
Cheng Fang and Li Kelan hesitated for a moment, but resigned themselves to their fate and sat down.
Liu Chuyu brought the menu and placed it in front of the three of them. "What would you like to eat?"
"Fried dough sticks cost ten coins each, sweet rice cakes cost twenty coins, and fried rice with eggs costs fifty coins..."
Liu Chuyu deliberately overstated the prices of the food at the restaurant, but the three of them always spent several taels of silver on a meal when they ate out, so they didn't think anything was wrong at the moment.
Zhao Dahai listened silently, not daring to utter a sound.
