Shen Nanzhi's words almost brought tears to the eyes of the restaurant's waiter, who felt his nose sting and took a deep breath.
"Alright, I will prepare tea for you immediately, as requested by the young master."
As he spoke, the waiter bent down and gestured for him to enter.
Seeing Shen Nanzhi nod, the waiter hurriedly led the way.
Before long, Shen Nanzhi, along with Liangchen Meijing and Sanyue, sat down at the table by the window.
The waiter brought the tea over almost as quickly as possible.
Meanwhile, the waiter started racking his brains to recite the menu.
"Gentlemen, our dishes here are a perfect mix of meat and vegetables. Our most famous dish is Zhangcun stir-fry, and our dumplings are absolutely delicious."
"If you'd like some heartier dishes, you can choose sweet and sour pork, braised beef ribs, or catfish prepared two ways. By the way, our local New Year's feast is also very famous."
"Tell me what you would like to eat first, and I will have the chef prepare it right away."
Seeing the waiter start nagging again, March's face showed impatience, and she turned her head and said, "Where's your menu?"
"Oh, here it is, young master, please take a look."
In March, she took the menu and placed it in front of Shen Nanzhi, speaking to him respectfully.
"Young master, what would you like to eat?"
"It doesn't matter, just keep an eye on things."
It wasn't that Shen Nan was being pretentious, but rather that Shen Nan genuinely couldn't eat anything right now.
Since learning about the incident at home, Shen Nanzhi has been restless and anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.
Let alone the delicacies we eat now, even the rarest foods taste bland and taste like chewing wax.
Seeing that Shen Nanzhi's mood was starting to drop again, Sanyue pointed to a few meat dishes on the menu and spoke up.
"This, this, sweet and sour pork, by the way, what does 'a bountiful harvest for the New Year' mean? You didn't explain it clearly just now."
Seeing that these people finally started ordering quietly, the waiter breathed a long sigh of relief.
Since they've started begging for food, they're definitely not going anywhere. Although he was a little scared just now, the waiter felt that the scare he suffered was worth it for this outcome.
The man's face immediately lit up with a smile when the topic of a bountiful harvest for the Lunar New Year came up.
"Sir, you don't understand. There's a specific way we ensure the freshness of our ingredients, no matter when or where. Only in this way can we be worthy of our customers."
"Just like the shrimp and cauliflower during a bountiful harvest for the Lunar New Year, they are all the freshest."
"Okay, then I'll have one of these!"
After ordering the dishes, March ordered some staple food. Seeing the waiter leave in a hurry, March personally poured a cup of tea for Shen Nanzhi.
"Please have some tea, sir."
March was extremely respectful, and Liang Chen Meijing, sitting motionless in her seat beside him, looked at Shen Nanzhi with impeccable manners.
Shen Nanzhi was both amused and exasperated.
"Don't be like that, everyone relax a bit. Otherwise, the four of us sitting together will definitely make people uncomfortable, and it will be troublesome if we give ourselves away."
Liangchen glanced around the round table and noticed that their posture was indeed quite strange; everyone was sitting upright and no one was saying a word.
The other people who come here to eat are completely different; they are all chatting and laughing.
