Chapter 77
Honghe Tower is located in the middle of the main street of Qingyuan County, sitting west and facing east, with a two-story civil structure.Wooden door and window railings, carvings and paintings are full of atmosphere, and the two-story eaves are very tall and exquisite.On the side of the ground floor facing the street, there is a verandah with lanterns hanging under the corridor, and the purple-red paint color is very rich.There are also corridor railings on the side facing the street on the second floor. From a distance, it seems that there are carved patterns on the railings.

As a county town, it is not easy to have such an elegant restaurant.

Ye Xinyan looked at the Honghe Tower for a moment, then lowered her head and asked Qi Jia: "This is the Honghe Tower, we are going in to meet the shopkeeper, are you afraid?"

Qi Jia shook his head and said, "Not afraid."

The little guy is really not afraid. Ever since he came to his grandfather's house, he found that when he was with his grandfather, sister and nanny, no matter what the situation, the three of them would take care of him and never hurt him. thing.With these relatives holding his hand, those things that can scare him are far away from him.

Ye Xinyan nodded approvingly and said, "Yes, we Qi Jia is a boy, so we are not afraid."

Two people, one big and one small, held hands and entered the Honghe Tower where business had not yet started.

As soon as you enter the gate of Honghe Tower, you will see a large hall with tables and chairs neatly placed inside.The tables and chairs here are incomparable to the Qijia stalls. The wood color of the tables is thick and majestic, and there are simple patterns on the table and around them.The matching chair is also carved with high back, which is very stylish.

A few guys were scattered in every corner, doing wiping and cleaning work in the already tidy hall.

On both sides of the rear of the hall, there are two staircases with exquisite railings, leading directly to the second floor.

It's not the time to eat, Honghe Tower is very clean, and the guys working in the hall are also very well-behaved, they all work with their heads down, they don't chat and laugh, and clean up with their hearts.

A waiter near the door saw the two of them, stopped what he was doing, came up to him and asked, "Are the two guests here for dinner? It's a bit early now, we haven't opened yet, please wait a while How about coming again?"

Talking like this is probably the professional requirement of Honghelou's Xiaoer, who obviously doesn't think these two... siblings in coarse old clothes?It seems that the age disparity is a bit big.Mother and child?The age gap is a bit small. ...In short, it doesn't look like the two of them can afford to eat in Honghe Tower.

Ye Xinyan quickly smiled and said, "Second brother, we don't eat, we are here to find your shopkeeper, we have a business to discuss with your shopkeeper."

Xiao Er's eyes glanced at the large group of unknown objects that Ye Xinyan was carrying, and then looked at the small toy basket in the hands of the three-year-old child, making a embarrassed expression, "Sister-in-law, how about you?" Don't make fun of me, our Honghelou is the premier restaurant in Qingyuan County, and we don't do business with ordinary small vendors. You should go to another place and ask."

Xiao Er's words were suspected of looking at people through the cracks of doors, but for the waiter Xiao Er in the largest restaurant in the county, what he said about two poor women and children was already very polite.

Ye Xinyan, who was born in an ordinary peasant family, naturally does not have such a glassy heart. She didn't blush and feel embarrassed when she heard Xiaoer say that. She was about to say something, but her younger brother said: "Big brother, my family is doing well." It’s delicious. My grandpa said it’s a delicacy that doesn’t exist in this world, and I’m sure your family doesn’t have it either. Why don’t you try it, big brother?”

Ye Xinyan was surprised by Qi Jia's performance, she didn't expect her younger brother to have such eloquence.Now that the childish and innocent little friend had already said this, Ye Xinyan stopped talking and looked at Xiaoer with a smile.

Children have always been more likable than adults, especially Qi Jia now, with neat clothes, a pair of big black eyes on a clean face, sincere and serious face, very cute.

Xiaoer's face is embarrassed, your delicious food that is not available in this world, how can I dare to taste it?
After talking for a long time, Xiaoer said: "This sister-in-law and this young master, our restaurant really doesn't do business with ordinary small households. Sister-in-law should not embarrass you, go to another small restaurant and ask."

Ye Xinyan said with a smile: "It's really not easy to go to another place for this thing of mine. Except for your guests, the guests of other small restaurants may not be able to afford my snack."

Diners from other restaurants can't afford it?Xiaoer was stunned when he heard it, and said hesitantly: "Then..., sister-in-law, is what you said true? If it is true, I will tell my shopkeeper about it?"

Ye Xinyan nodded solemnly, "It can't be more true. The food in my house is really not something ordinary guests can afford."

Xiao Er was still hesitating, and a man came out from the back of the hall. He was in his thirties, of medium build, wearing a long gown, a headscarf, and a businessman's attire.

As soon as Xiao Er saw the person coming, he was relieved immediately, and hurried to catch up, saying: "Shopkeeper, a young woman came to our restaurant, that, those two, who said they want to do business with our restaurant, there is a woman who is not in the world." Delicious snacks…”

Xiao Er was a little bit speechless. This was said by the three-year-old child. It seems a bit exaggerated?
The shopkeeper of Honghe Tower was named He, and shopkeeper He looked at the two people standing in the hall, one big and one small, and saw that the young woman was carrying a bunch of tightly wrapped things in her hand. Not the slightest cowardice.The other child held her hand, with no fear in his expression, very peaceful.

Shopkeeper He nodded secretly, these two didn't look like fools.

When Ye Xinyan saw that the waiter called him the shopkeeper, she knew that this was the real owner, so she hurriedly stepped forward, and said with a shallow salute: "You are the shopkeeper of Honghe Tower, right? I have a snack here, I would like to treat you See if it catches your eyes." Seeing that the shopkeeper did not express any dislike, she then tentatively said, "If it looks okay to you, the little lady wants to sell some for you and give you enough profit from this restaurant. How about you, first How do you see things?"

"Oh?" Shopkeeper He felt a little surprised.We Honghelou can see it too well, so we have to sell some instead of supplying all of them to Honghelou. The tone is not small.

Not to be outdone, Qi Jia chimed in and said, "Uncle, the food at my house is very good, you can eat some."

Shopkeeper He laughed dumbfounded. This is an interesting combination. Is it appropriate to sell things like this?But the effect is really good.

Ye Xinyan also smiled. She looked around and saw that there were no guests, so she put the wooden barrel wrapped in her hand on a nearby table, and tried to ask: "Shopkeeper, why don't we just watch it in the hall?" ? Is it convenient here?"

Shopkeeper He hesitated for a moment, since he had already talked about this, even the children had spoken, so it was nothing to look at.If you don't like it, just send it away, and you won't lose anything.Since you want to see it, let's go to the back hall to see it. If it is really a lot of things, it would be better to have more mystery.

"Then let's see in the back hall."

Qi Jia looked at Ye Xinyan with doubts on his face, wondering if he should follow this strange uncle.

Ye Xinyan smiled at him, "Let's go in and show Uncle our delicious food, sister will lead you."

That is, can it be sold to make money?A smile appeared on Qi Jia's face, and he happily followed Ye Xinyan inside.
