Chapter 485 Entertaining
After eating, Cang Hai and Shi Wei walked back to the hospital. The group of people in the morning went home, and there were a lot of people missing in the room.But even if there were fewer people, the scene was much bigger than when Shi Wei gave birth.

When the two entered the room, Shi Wei opened her mouth to say something, Shi Zhenbang gave Cang Hai a wink, so Cang Hai followed the old man out of the room.

"How much did it cost?" Shi Zhenbang asked.

Cang Hai shook his head and said, "I don't know, Shi Wei paid for it."

Cang Hai was at the side when paying the bill, but he didn't look at the bill handed over by the waiter at all. Shi Wei just glanced at it, and then took out her mobile phone to pay the bill.

"Why don't you look at the bill?"

Cang Hai smiled and said, "I didn't know you would ask me, it was Shi Wei's idea when our family spent a lot of money, how about I call her over for you?"

Shi Zhenbang waved his hand and said, "No need!"

The old man turned around to leave, and then suddenly turned his body back: "How is the food?"

Cang Haidao: "The dishes are so-so, but I have learned a lot today."

As he spoke, he told his father-in-law what happened at noon.

Shi Zhenbang was not surprised when he heard this: "That's the custom in Wuding Township, and it's always like this when eating wine!"

"It's a bit too low, it's like you haven't eaten in what age now," Cang Hai complained.

"Okay, don't talk about it, their hometown has always been the poorest, and they have everything they need. By the way, your mother and I will go home tomorrow, so don't you and Shi Wei stay here. It’s over, there’s nothing to do today, you can go back later,” Shi Zhenbang said.

After hearing this, Cang Hai asked again: "When will Yan Li go home? Look at her in good spirits."

Yan Li's delivery went smoothly, and she hardly suffered any pain. This seems to prove that the water supporters in Sijiaping Village, especially the pregnant women, have not suffered any hardships since Shi Wei.

"Of course it's tomorrow, but tomorrow Yan Li and Shi Jie are going to live with his father-in-law's house for a while..." Shi Zhenbang said.

From the old man's words, Cang Hai smelled a deep sense of loss. The daughter-in-law usually returns to their small home when they return home, but now the daughter-in-law is going to take the two children to her in-laws to raise them for a while. It is impossible to say that there is nothing to do and run to the in-laws. Although it is said that the two families are not far away, and it takes about ten minutes to drive, there is no such statement.

Just got a grandson and a little granddaughter, the old couple haven't cared enough, and they haven't seen each other for a month, so it's no wonder they feel better.

Cang Hai didn't want to get involved in this matter, it's hard for an upright official to settle housework, let alone Cang Hai is not an official yet.

At this moment, the phone in Cang Hai's hand rang.

Cang Hai glanced at Zhang Jiusheng, so he smiled at Shi Zhenbang, turned around and answered the phone.

"Hello, Cang Hai, I heard you came to the city?" Zhang Jiusheng asked immediately after the phone call.

Cang Hai replied: "Yes, it's not my brother-in-law's wife who is having a baby. We came here to join in the fun. I didn't call you because I didn't want to trouble you. I won't go to your place this time, and I'll wait for the next time."

"Haha, I guess it's okay if you don't come?" Zhang Jiusheng said with a smile.

Cang Hai felt a little strange, and asked, "How do you say that?"

Zhang Jiusheng said: "Mayor Lu called and said to book a quiet room at night, saying that you came, otherwise how would I know you were in the city."

"Hey, it's still on your side after a circle," Cang Hai said with a smile.

"Mayor Lu doesn't come here very often. He has only been here two or three times since he arrived in the city. Today, he specially booked a small room to entertain people. Naturally, I have to ask more questions about the taste of entertaining guests. Who knows this?" When I asked the secretary that Mayor Lu was entertaining you, I called you..."

"This happened! I just asked Lu Yanzhi to pick a quieter place, who knows he would pick you here." Cang Hai didn't know what to say.

Zhang Jiusheng was very proud: "If you want to say that it is quieter than my place in this city, you can come and see how my place is doing now."

"Okay!" Cang Hai said with a smile.

The two chatted about what to eat at night. Zhang Jiusheng's food is from Sijiaping. Of course, he knows about the seasonal Canghai. Let's not talk about vegetarian dishes. At this time, carp and lobster are what they want Come for one.

Not long after speaking, Cang Hai received a call from Lu Yanzhi again, and told Cang Hai about the appointment of Zhang Jiusheng's place.

Cang Hai returned to the room and stayed for a while, not talking about Cang Hai, even Shi Wei couldn't get in the way, listening to a group of old women instilling the parenting scriptures to Yan Li, only those who have experienced that kind of suffering know.

Shi Wei thought it was meaningless to hang around like this, so she got up to say goodbye, and then slipped out with the young couple Cang Hai.

"Where are you going?" Shi Wei got into the car and asked Cang Hai.

Cang Hai said: "Where else can I go, just turn around and go to Zhang Jiusheng's place!"

"What time is it, go to the place to eat?" Shi Wei said.

"Why don't we go to the city and let me find out what attractions are nearby?" Cang Hai said.

Shi Wei thought for a while: "Forget it, let's go to Zhang Jiusheng's place. By the way, let's live alone tonight, don't get together with them."

"Okay, let alone living alone, even if you go back overnight, it's fine." Cang Hai smiled and fixed the navigation, and then drove out of the hospital.

According to the navigation, after driving for about [-] minutes, Cang Hai drove to a place with special scenery in the city. After looking at the map, Cang Hai found that Zhang Jiusheng's place was actually adjacent to a park in the city. There is no tall building, at most three or four floors, and most of them are antique buildings.

There is a lake in the center, with an area of ​​several hundred acres. The whole park is surrounded by this lake. There is also a small island in the center of the lake. The area is small and connected to the land by a series of arch bridges. Weeping willows are walking, many pedestrians are strolling by the lake, and from time to time, some children can be seen flying kites under the leadership of adults.

"The scenery here is good, a bit like a Soviet-style garden." Cang Hai smiled and slowed down the car, and continued to follow the navigation.

Shi Wei said: "It was originally designed to imitate the Soviet-style garden. At that time, it seemed that a group of people were arrested for doing this."

"You know this too?"

Shi Wei said with a smile: "A classmate of mine in college, his father fell because of this incident."

The couple drove the car and followed the navigation to the entrance of Zhang Jiusheng's restaurant. When they looked up, they saw the gate of Zhang Jiusheng's restaurant, which said Wuhu Club.

"It's still doing well!" Cang Hai looked at the gate and said to Shi Wei with a smile.

"With such a large house in this place, the rent alone will cost a lot of money in a year." Shi Wei also looked at the courtyard in front of her curiously.

The yard is quite big, so it’s hard to say how many times to enter, but now I saw five or six residential-style buildings in the north. If you look in from the gate and ignore the street lights, it’s like walking into a TV series. In the eyes of architects like Cang Hai, the taste of Chinese-style dwellings is not only strong but also upright.

"Hello, do you two have an invitation?"

The car arrived at the door, and just about to go in, it was stopped by someone.

"invitation?"

"Well, we are a private club here, not open to the public. If you are not a member, you must have an invitation card. Otherwise, you can also report the name of Mr. Banquet, as long as your name matches the list of guests. All right," said the waiter at the door very politely.

Cang Hai also forgot which private room Lu Yanzhi booked here for a moment, so he opened his mouth and said, "I'm looking for your boss, Zhang Jiusheng. He invited me here. He will know if you give my name. It's called Canghai".

Hearing that Cang had posted his name, the waiter turned his head to check Cang Hai's name, but after walking two steps, the waiter seemed to have remembered something, and immediately turned around again with a look on his face. The smile is even bigger.

"So you are Mr. Cang Hai, the boss said just now, if you come, go in directly and walk along this road..." The waiter said as he stretched out his hand to guide Cang Hai.

"Thank you!"

Cang Hai thanked him, and drove the car in the direction pointed by the waiter.

After turning two or one corners, we came to a very quiet place. Even if we were outside, we couldn't hear the noise of tourists on the road. A small courtyard with gray bricks and blue tiles was so quietly placed among the fragrance of birds and flowers.

The car stopped at the door, Cang Hai and his wife came down and ran directly to the door of the small courtyard, and pushed the door open for two waiters.

Standing at the door, Cang Hai found that facing him was an ancient building with flying eaves, with white gray walls on both sides, connected to the gate through a corridor, and a pond in the middle, where a group of koi were raised. There are also lotus flowers planted around the house, and you can smell an intoxicating fragrance of lotus leaves as soon as you enter the door.

"Guests, please!"

Led by a waiter, Cang Hai and his wife entered the house along the corridor. As soon as they entered the room, they saw a lounge with several official hat chairs and some landscape paintings hanging on the wall. A blog shelf with some gadgets on it, I don't know if it's real or fake, but it looks like that anyway.

The waiter brought Cang Hai and his wife here, introduced them to them, and turned around and left after speaking.

Shi Wei was curious, and walked to the corridor at the door, picked up the fish food placed below, and started throwing it into the small pond in the courtyard.

These koi also seem to be old-fashioned. When Shi Wei stood in the corridor, some koi immediately swam towards the place where Shi Wei was standing, squeezing the long koi with their mouths open. Together, wait for Shi Wei to feed.

Shi Wei had a lot of fun. Canghai is a student of architecture. When she saw something wrong with the house, she felt a little guilty. She carefully admired the structure of the house with her hands behind her back.

Judging by Cang Hai's eyesight, this house is a bit old, most of the components are older than the Republic's, the overall architectural style is from the Qing Dynasty, and it has undergone some repairs, but the materials used for repairs are obviously not as good as those used for construction Well, a lot of what used to be elm has been replaced with pine.

Fortunately, the original architectural taste is still good.

When Canghai was looking at the building, Zhang Jiusheng's voice sounded like a cannon barrel.

"Cang Hai, Shi Wei! I didn't expect you to come so early. I greeted the guests. Sorry, I didn't go to greet you."

Zhang Jiusheng pushed open the door, and strode over along the corridor.

Cang Hai said with a smile: "Okay, you just do your own thing! Let's just take a look around here."

"No more, the last table at noon!" Zhang Jiusheng's face was flushed, it was obvious that he had drunk a little wine.

When he got to Cang Hai's side, Zhang Jiusheng glanced at it and shouted loudly: "What about tea, the guests don't serve a pot of tea when they come. After finishing the tea, go to my office and get the box of Tieguanyin to brew."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Jiusheng turned to Cang Hai and asked, "How is my place?"

"The environment here is good, is your store closed?" Cang Hai asked.

"Yes, why don't you open it? If you want to make money here, I'll go to the northwest wind. Now there are four stores in the bustling part of the city. This is a high-end club system. Don't think the money charged is quite high. But not even half of the people actually received it, and more than 80.00% of the profits came from the four stores, which is considered a loss here... ".

There was nothing to hide from Canghai Zhang Jiusheng, so he told about the situation on his side.

"The building in your yard is better than the park outside. How did you take it down?"

Zhang Jiusheng said: "It would be good if this area was not demolished. Before liberation, this was the Liu family's compound, with hundreds of houses, and this area was the only one that was demolished...".

Cang Hai should just listen to Zhang Jiusheng's storytelling, not to mention the small courtyard of Liu's family, even the city walls were demolished at that time, let alone the house of a small rich man.

But when he heard how Zhang Jiusheng rented the place, Huahai could only sigh: "Human society."
