Mr. Zhou only heard a general idea from his wife. The Liu family originally ran a small restaurant. Later, the two adults died, leaving Liu Qinghuan an orphan.
But later a cousin came over and reopened the restaurant. Liuji was renamed Huanxi Restaurant and became famous since then.
"My family has a career in government." As soon as Ye Heng said this, there was silence at the table for a long time.
Several masters exchanged glances with each other, suddenly confused about the situation.
Mr. Zhou originally thought that the Ye family was in the catering business, and brought some secret recipe passed down from their ancestors.
He is actually planning a career in politics?
Ye Heng half-seriously raised his wine glass and said, "I am just a small local official. I cannot be mentioned in front of you all."
The words were vague, but the masters re-examined Ye Heng's demeanor and did not believe that he was just a minor official.
Besides, they also heard that Wang Hu went to Huanxi Restaurant but returned in disgrace, and until now, Huanxi Restaurant has not been in any trouble.
Mr. Zhou cautiously probed, "Where does Brother Ye live? It's quite far from here, right?"
Ye Heng said, "My home is in Yunxi, which is only two days' journey away."
After saying this, the gentlemen were hit hard again.
Yunxi is the capital.
Where are the petty officials in the capital?
So they spoke with respect, intentionally or unintentionally, raised their glasses and said they wanted to make friends with Ye Heng.
"I would be very grateful to you all for your kindness."
Ye Heng knew that Liu Qinghuan wanted to establish relationships with the wealthy families in Yuncheng, so he naturally wanted to help her achieve her goal.
Those who sat at the same table with him were all Mr. Zhou's closest friends, and all of them were prominent figures. Seeing this, the male guests at other tables also came to pay their respects.
Ye Heng was not afraid of anyone who came. He raised his glass and drank with each of the masters one by one without showing any sign of being drunk.
"Sister, look." Xie Xiaomei tugged at Xie Xiaoyue's sleeve, motioning her to look in the direction of her second brother.
Xie Xiaoyue followed Xie Xiaomei's gaze and saw the young man standing next to her second brother. He was wearing a purple silk robe and a black long hairpin on his head. He had a handsome face and a noble demeanor, and his body was tall and strong. He was shining among the crowd.
"This is..." Xie Xiaoyue blushed and didn't know what to answer.
Xie Xiaomei didn't understand her sister's thoughts and whispered, "The young man next to my second brother is so handsome. I wonder who he is from?"
Xie Xiaoyue's heart sank when she heard this, but she smiled and said, "When you get home later, just ask Xiaonan."
Xie Xiaoyue herself also wanted to know that if she could really marry him, the eldest daughter would definitely be given priority.
Thinking of the word "marriage", Xie Xiaoyue's face turned slightly red.
Liu Qinghuan saw the two sisters looking towards Ye Heng, then blushing and muttering to each other, feeling unhappy.
What are you looking at? Are all the young ladies nowadays so unreserved?
"Qinghuan, haven't you had any new dishes recently?" Madam Zhou ate the braised prawns peeled by the maid behind her. Although she didn't get tired of it, she was always looking for new ways to prepare it.
"New dishes will be launched next month. Don't worry, ma'am. I will definitely send them to you first."
When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she was delighted.
"Boss Liu, you can't do that. There are so many of us watching." Only a true sister like Mrs. She dared to speak up and joke at this moment, "You have to send it to us too. Everyone who listens gets a share."
Madam Zhou feigned anger and slapped Madam She: "Aya, you're trying to snatch everything from me."
"It's not like we're going to grab everything, but we still have to fight for this matter, don't you think, Xiao Liu?"
Liu Qinghuan was suddenly named, "Mrs. She is so kind."
Xie Xiaomei looked at the three people talking and laughing, and gave Liu Qinghuan a blank look in her heart.
A nouveau riche, what a thing.
