The Su family's post-Hundred Flowers Festival banquet was held in the Huanxi Restaurant in great style.
Those who came and went were all young girls and young men, not only from aristocratic families, but also from common people. All the women who participated in the Hundred Flowers Festival, including the last prostitute, were invited to come.
As for the young masters, most of them were arranged by Su Qiuyun, and some came with their sisters.
Ye Heng's situation is a bit special, as he is following his wife.
Liu Qinghuan even joked that Ye Heng should come as the boss's wife.
Liu Qinghuan specially put the tables of Huanxi Restaurant together into two long strips. Everyone who came in had to draw a strip and sit according to the number on it.
Everyone who got the slip and sat down was a little nervous and curious, wondering what kind of person would be sitting next to them. Was it a gentleman or a lady?
This was Liu Qinghuan's first large-scale blind date event. As expected, Su Qiong did not come during the event. She was just given a menu, and all other steps were set by Liu Qinghuan himself.
After all, if it is not done well, it will be a slap in the face of Huanxi Restaurant. If it is done well, the reputation of Huanxi Restaurant will spread widely.
"This Miss Su family is really generous. She actually set up this banquet in the Happy Restaurant. The decoration here is very different. I think it's better than the Misty Rain Tower."
"Shh, keep your voice down, the young master of Yanyu Tower is sitting over there." The two little girls took advantage of the fact that there were not many people around and no one had sat down yet, and they huddled together and whispered in each other's ears.
"Why is he here? There are always rumors that Huanxi brand is surpassing Yanyu Tower. Shouldn't these two families hate each other?"
"It's really a family that dares to invite and a family that dares to come."
After a long while, Su Qiong finally arrived in full attire. Passing by Liu Qinghuan, she sneered, "Why aren't you in the kitchen? Didn't I specifically ask you to prepare the banquet?"
Liu Qinghuan glanced at Su Qiong and said deliberately, "Miss Su, what you said is not true. My boss never said he would take your job."
When Liu Qinghuan said this, his voice became quite loud, and all the guests in the restaurant looked at them.
Su Qiong felt the gazes converge on her, and she didn't want to lose to her in terms of momentum. "How dare you refuse the Su family's order? You're just a new shop, I'm afraid you don't know how much prestige our Su family has in Suzhou City!"
Su Qiong was speaking harshly now. Liu Qinghuan knew she was angry again by looking at her impatience. He said with a smile, "It's not that our restaurant doesn't want to take your order. It's just that you didn't pay us a deposit and didn't sign the receipt, so we didn't dare to accept it. Even if your Su family is rich and powerful, you still have to follow the rules, right?"
There were also many young ladies from aristocratic families present, and there were quite a few families that could rival the Su family. If Su Qiong dared to say something like "The Su family is the rule", others would definitely remember it.
Su Qiong was a little choked up, and just then, Lu Jiaxuan, the son of County Magistrate Lu, came in and reached out to pull Su Qiong behind him.
Shi Shen bowed and said, "Miss Liu, this is Qiong'er's first time organizing a banquet, so it's inevitable that there are some omissions. I forgot to pay the deposit, but the Su family will not deny this banquet. Since Huanxi Restaurant has already arranged the banquet, there is no need to worry about it. I apologize on Qiong'er's behalf."
Liu Qinghuan saw what Lu Jiaxuan was doing and felt that it seemed like he had some unusual relationship with Su Qiong.
"cousin!"
Su Qiong was puzzled by Lu Jiaxuan's behavior. Normally, Lu Jiaxuan would not admit his mistakes, so why did he apologize to the cook today?
"Qiong'er, come with me." Lu Jiaxuan did not explain in front of Liu Qinghuan, but just grabbed Liu Qinghuan's sleeve and pulled him in.
Liu Qinghuan looked around but could not see Su Qiuying.
But I didn't take it to heart. From the first meeting, it seemed that the relationship between the two siblings was not very good.
There was still half an hour before the time indicated on the invitation for the banquet, but the guests had already gathered, and someone suggested playing a drinking game.
Half of the people in these two groups have received education, and the other half can barely read or write. Since Liu Qinghuan asked everyone to do their homework randomly at the beginning, they are afraid that they will not be able to play together if they start playing drinking games now.
"I have a good idea." Liu Qinghuan stood up, took out a prepared string from the counter, and waved it in front of him.
"I'm facing away from you all now. You pass the ball around in order. Whoever has the ball in their hand when I say stop will come out and perform a show. How about that?" Everyone seemed to have one or two specialties, and they were very interested in this novel way of playing.
Especially those who come here with the purpose of finding marriage, they want to get the silk and show off their charm.
But he was too embarrassed to hold it in his hand intentionally, so he could only pray that it would fall to him when Liu Qinghuan called for stop.
Seeing everyone's expressions of approval, Liu Qinghuan thought to herself that she had played this kind of team-building project too many times. She had originally planned to play Werewolf with Ye Heng and the others.
Later, I thought that these people had sharp ears and eyes, and even if they closed their eyes, they could hear any noise clearly, so I gave up.
"Then let's start with you. My back is turned now, so you can yell 'start' yourself."
After saying that, Liu Qinghuan turned her back to everyone and stood at a distance. Everyone made sure that she couldn't see what was happening behind her. In other words, it was completely random who the string ended up in.
Liu Qinghuan put his hands behind his back, listening to the laughter and pouting voices from behind, and estimated that it should be passed around once (at least to make everyone feel somewhat involved). After a while, he shouted stop and turned around.
The necklace fell into Ye Heng's hands.
Ye Heng's face darkened as he stared at the colorful silk string in his hand, motionless. Liu Qinghuan and Feng Ying, who was following him, were also stunned.
