Before the banquet started, the male guests followed the servant to the front yard, and Liu Qinghuan followed Madam She to Madam Zhou's garden.
The courtyards of these rich people's houses are layered, one courtyard within another, which is really dazzling.
Mrs. She often comes to the Zhou Mansion and is familiar with the place.
"You two actually arrived together." Mrs. Zhou was sitting among the female guests, chatting and laughing. When she saw someone come in, she looked up and saw the two people she wanted to see the most.
Madam She naturally sat in the seat closest to Madam Zhou and waved for Liu Qinghuan to come over. "What a coincidence, we met at the door."
When Liu Qinghuan entered the door, he put on a fake business smile and was forced to open for business.
"Greetings, Madam Zhou, and all the ladies."
"Why are you being so polite after entering the house? Everyone here is my good sister, so Qinghuan, don't be polite."
Madam Zhou took a piece of fruit and placed it in Liu Qinghuan's hand. She said to the others, "This is the owner of the Huanxi Restaurant. I wonder if you have met him."
"Yes, I have. Who hasn't been to Huanxi Restaurant? If it weren't so hard to book a private room now, I would go there every day."
"Who says it's not true? Even ordering food is restricted now. It's really hard to get a meal."
Anyone with a discerning eye could see how much Mrs. Zhou valued Liu Qinghuan, and naturally they praised her.
Those who have never been there, after hearing this, also want to go to Huanxi Restaurant and have a seat.
"Miss Liu and I have always been good friends. Today, my master is hosting a banquet, and the food is ordered from the Happy Restaurant." Madam Zhou was very proud of being able to easily enjoy the dishes of the Happy Restaurant. She tied up her hair and said, "Today, everyone can eat as much as they want."
As soon as the words fell, someone followed up with praise: "Mrs. Zhou is so generous. We can have a feast tonight."
"Yeah yeah."
Everyone in the room chatted with Mrs. Zhou for a while, and then a maid came to report that the master had notified them to start the banquet.
"Then let's go over there." Several ladies were supported by their maids and went to the front hall.
Liu Qinghuan was alone and looked lonely.
A lady in a rose-red silk dress said to the lady next to her in what she thought was a quiet voice, "Boss Liu is really frugal. He didn't even bother to bring a maid to a banquet like this."
The lady next to her was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Boss Liu was being protected by Madam Zhou, but how come Madam Zhang didn't seem to have any clue at all?
Madam Zhou glanced at Madam Zhang and calmly took Liu Qinghuan's hand: "Let's go quickly so that the gentlemen won't be waiting anxiously."
Liu Qinghuan was very grateful for Mrs. Zhou's action. After all, she was really embarrassed just now.
It would be better to buy ten or eight maids when I go back so that they can keep order when I go out.
Surrounded by a crowd of people, Liu Qinghuan saw her Ye Heng from afar. He was sitting among a group of fat middle-aged men, standing out from the crowd.
"Don't worry, my master will take good care of my cousin." Mrs. She saw Liu Qinghuan looking over there, and knew that they were worried about each other, so she grabbed Liu Qinghuan's hand and patted it.
Seeing Ye Heng also looking in her direction, Liu Qinghuan gave him a reassuring look and smiled at Madam She: "I'm really sorry to trouble Master She today. My cousin is not very good at interpersonal relationships."
Mrs. Zhou took a few people to sit down, and specially arranged Liu Qinghuan to sit next to her. The other ladies also found tables and sat down according to the seats on their invitations.
