Chapter 17 The Grand View Building

Chapter 17 Daguanlou (two chapters in a row, please recommend for collection)

This is a five-story building with flying eaves and flowing walls, resplendent and magnificent.

The building is located on the edge of a misty lake. From time to time, you can see all kinds of ships and boats coming and going. There is a faint sound of jubilation, and the high-spirited singing of fishermen resounds on the lake, causing the fish to glow.Rows of lightly drooping willows by the lake, swaying gently in the breeze.

This is Daguanlou, located on the bank of Daming Lake, the best restaurant in Weiyang County.

When Yang Zhen came here, it was already sunset.

After coming out of the pharmacy, Yang Zhen didn't go to the new store again.After being rejected many times, he already understood that it is almost impossible to find a job because he is not old enough and has no status.If you want an identity, it is best to find a family that is willing to adopt him.The first thing he thought of was Grandma Chen's house.On the way yesterday, Aunt Fu said that she was busy working in Daguanlou these days, so he came here.

Aunt Fu was helping in the kitchen downstairs, and she was pleasantly surprised to see Yang Zhen coming over.

"Little Shitou, have you eaten yet? Auntie is going to get you something to eat."

Yang Zhen hurriedly stopped her.He went to a cloth shop at noon, and although they didn't want him, they gave him a big steamed bun for his hard work in helping to move a few bolts of cloth, and he wasn't hungry yet.

He made it clear what he came for.

"Aunt Fu, as long as I have an identity, I can support myself. I have inquired about it. Although those shops do not employ child labor, I can go to help and earn some food. It is not a problem. When I am over 12 years old, I will Just find a formal job, and then I will support grandma with you!"

"it is good."

Aunt Fu stood up, stroked her messy hair, and looked at Yang Zhen with a smile on her haggard face.

This is a kitchen the size of half a basketball court, and Aunt Fu is a handyman who washes vegetables.In addition, there are back stoves, backing boards, lotus, water tables, etc., and those who report menus and serve dishes back and forth, come and go, so lively.

When the two were talking, there was a waiter, holding a large dish with both hands, covered with a large bowl, steaming white.

When passing by the two of them, the waiter glanced at Yang Zhen, and shouted to Aunt Fu: "Sister Fu, is this your relative? I'm going to deliver meals to the distinguished guests in the Tianzihao box on the fifth floor. Brother, help me?"

"Okay, let's go." Aunt Fu's eyes lit up, serving VIPs, good luck often rewards.

Yang Zhen excitedly followed Xiao Er out of the kitchen and walked a few steps. The Xiao Er looked back, slowed down, and greeted Yang Zhen:

"Your name is Little Stone, right?"

"Ah? You know me?"

"Well, your Aunt Fu asked me about adopting you in the morning."

It turned out that after sending Yang Zhen away last night, Aunt Fu and Grandma Chen talked about him again, and they both felt that the child was quite pitiful.Aunt Fu and Grandma Chen's son had been married for many years and had nothing to do, so the two also thought about adopting her.

This morning, Aunt Fu approached some acquaintances in the restaurant to inquire about how to adopt him, and among them was this Xiao Er.

"Do you know how much it costs to adopt a child?" Xiao Er stared at Yang Zhen with a serious expression.

"Ah? Still need money?" Yang Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and then realized: How can the yamen not charge money?
"Yes. A total of eleven gold coins are needed, one of which is the fee for the yamen's affairs, and the other ten are the guarantee for the yamen. You can ask the yamen to get it back after you reach the age of 15..."

"So much money!" Yang Zhen was taken aback.

"Your Aunt Fu works here, do you know how much she earns a day?" Xiao Er's tone became more and more rude.

"several?"

"Ten copper coins! Fifteen coins for a good job. Tell me, if you are adopted, how many days will your Aunt Fu need to spend without eating or drinking this money?"

"At least 700 days, which is two years." Yang Zhen murmured, feeling panicked in her heart.

"It's quite right. It seems that you are a smart child. You should think about it carefully. Do you still want Aunt Fu to adopt you?"

After Xiao Er finished speaking, she quickened her pace, and Yang Zhen followed behind in a daze.

On the third floor, someone handed over a jug of wine, Xiao Er asked Yang Zhen to help carry it.The two continued to go upstairs and soon reached the fifth floor.

There are only a few rooms on the fifth floor, all with closed doors.The innermost room is facing the lake, so it should be the Tianzi room with the best location.Sure enough, Xiaoer went all the way, and when he reached the door of the Tianzi room, he knocked the door, and the door opened automatically, and Xiaoer hurriedly called Yang Zhen to go in together.

Entering the house, the decoration inside is quite elegant.There is a square table in the middle with several small dishes on it.There is also a viewing platform outside the house, facing the rippling Daming Lake, with an excellent view.

There were three people in the house, all women.Standing beside the square table was a woman in a light green silk shirt, who looked about forty years old and had a delicate appearance.On the right side of the hall is a table, a girl is lying on it to write and draw, and a young woman in a snow-white silk dress sits next to her, both of them have their backs to the door, so they cannot be seen.

Xiaoer took a copper-like thing off the plate, then put away the plate, took two steps back and stood aside, the whole process was silent.

Then I heard the girl's voice: "Aniang, I'm hungry, I want to eat."

But the young woman refused: "No, you mean what you say. You just agreed to finish this question before eating, so you can't go back on your word?"

The girl was about to cry: "I didn't know it was so difficult, my mother is bullying!"

Then he yelled at the middle-aged woman beside him, "Mom, Yue'er wants to eat, but Auntie won't let me!"

The middle-aged woman just listened with a smile and didn't speak.

During these few conversations, the girl's voice was so delicate and soft that people couldn't help but want to agree.Although the young woman was stern, her voice was gentle and gentle, like a trickling spring.

Yang Zhen couldn't help thinking of the phrase in her previous life, "I would rather quarrel with people from Suzhou than talk to people from a certain place". Just listening to the words of these two people, I felt like enjoying the shade under a tree in summer, feeling slightly intoxicated.

The girl couldn't get support, so she groaned disconsolately, then buried herself in writing and drawing.The room was quiet again, and a needle could be heard.

After a while, I saw Xiao Er with a bitter face, turning his head to look at the middle-aged woman frequently, appearing quite disturbed.His movement was quickly noticed by the middle-aged woman, and she glanced at Xiaoer: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Er pointed to the copper rice bowl on the table, and said in a low voice, "This dish won't last long!"

"En." The woman responded lightly.

Xiao Er tiptoed to the table, gently lifted a corner of the copper paddle, and a white mist came out instantly, and there was a piece of ice in it, shaking slightly, obviously a lot of water had melted.

Xiao Er pointed to the remnant of ice: "My lord, if the ice cubes are gone, this dish won't taste the same."

"Oh, it's okay." The woman waved her hand, but without seeing her move, the remnant ice stopped shaking, and under the surprised gaze of the little girl, it quickly turned back into a large piece of ice.

Xiao Er was overjoyed, and retreated back to continue waiting, with a relaxed expression, and the impatience just now was gone.

Yang Zhen was also dumbfounded.This must be the method of the immortal!Unexpectedly, this middle-aged woman, who looked like a servant, was actually a fairy!
The servants are all immortals, so what are the identities of this mother and daughter?Is it a fairy too?
The room was quiet again, except for the little girl's grunt from time to time.

But Yang Zhen moved, and he walked towards the girl.

Because just now, he secretly made a decision.
