Yunmeng Ballad: I opened a restaurant in the Warring States Period

Chapter 18 Blame the old man
Chu Yunmeng breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off Young Master Yuan.

In order to find the past, she was spinning like a spinning top before.He tried his best to put Yunmengju on the track of rapid development, and approached step by step those who might help him find out the truth.

Now that she has made critical progress, she doesn't know what to do.

It's like a string that has been taut for too long and then suddenly loosened, and it can't be straightened up, and I don't feel like myself anymore.

She suddenly wondered if she shouldn't be so obsessed with the past, and shouldn't let herself live so tired.

After all, it's not bad to open a small restaurant and live a mediocre life.In the dream, the days of eating, drinking and traveling around the world all day, isn't it very comfortable?

However, without a clear understanding of her past, she always felt like a part of herself was missing. Walking in the world was also like walking in darkness, and at some point she would be devoured by an evil beast that pounced from nowhere in the darkness. belly.Her innate intuition for danger made her feel uneasy.

I hope that after finding the missing part, I can return to normal and live an ordinary, happy life.

After sighing, Chu Yunmeng began to inspect the lobby by hiding in the area between the screen in the lobby and the back kitchen.

She hasn't been in the lobby for a long time.

Since Yun Mengyao held the banquet, the lobby was first handed over to A Tian, ​​and then to A Lin.I devoted myself wholeheartedly to the preparation of Yunmeng Yao and the training of the servants.

At this time, looking at the lobby that was less crowded but more popular and pure than the private room, her heart felt as if it had dropped to the ground.

This is the true meaning of food, and it is also her original intention of opening a restaurant.

Let the food be presented in the most delicious form, let the value of the food be maximized, and make all food lovers full.

Just as he was thinking, there was a noise at the gate.

Chu Yunmeng frowned, Yunmengju has banned noise since its opening, who is causing trouble.

Before he had time to call Alin in to ask about the situation, an old man with gray beard and hair and strange behavior broke into the lobby.

"What's breaking the rules? Isn't the restaurant open for people to eat, and there is a limit of [-] people per day?! Then just close it!"

"Old man, our store has limited manpower, please understand..." A Lin hurriedly followed, while preventing the old man from making trouble: "To avoid disturbing other people, please don't make too much noise, old man."

The old man stopped talking immediately, looked at the couches all around him, folded his hands, and stood in the middle of the hall without saying a word, refusing to leave.

Ah Lin had no other choice, and hurriedly walked towards Chu Yunmeng behind the screen: "Boss, look at this..."

"Lead him quietly to the private room, and ask Wu Gu to prepare some vegetarian dishes for the dine-in." After giving the order, Chu Yunmeng withdrew to the private room first.

As soon as he sat down in the private room and put on his veil, Alin led the old man in.

"Please sit down, old man. I don't know what to call the old man?" Chu Yunmeng asked with a smile.

"Just call me Laoxu." The old man who called himself Laoxu responded casually.

"This is my newly brewed Lihuabai, you can try it." Chu Yunmeng poured a glass of wine for the strange old man himself.

"I just heard that the old gentleman seems to be dissatisfied with me, Yunmengju? I don't know where the hospitality is not good?"

"It's not that I'm not being treated well, it's that all the diners in Yingdu are being treated poorly." The old man waved his hand.

"All beings in the world are equal, how can you turn away diners just because they are late?" Old Xu asked with a serious face.

"Everyone can come to my restaurant, regardless of high or low, rich or poor. It's just that the capacity of the small shop is limited, and it can't take care of all living beings, so it proposes to serve only [-] diners a day. How can it be said that I am not good at hospitality? ?”

Chu Yunmeng asked back: "One line has its own rules, and each different shop has the right to set its own rules. Does Mr. Xu want me to stay open day and night so that everyone can eat Yunmengju's food? Then do you want me? And my buddies are all exhausted in the back kitchen lobby? How can this be fair to my buddies?"

"Then at least we can put more places..." Lao Xu was choked speechless, and said after a long time: "This will benefit more diners."

"Old Xu, Yunmengju doesn't have the ability to care for sentient beings. The few people in our store are actually doing their best to make a living within their own abilities, so that they can live a better life."

Chu Yunmeng didn't give face at all: "The number of places is just related to the morning and evening when everyone goes to Yunmengju for dinner, and it's not to prohibit specific people from entering and leaving. What's more, I have reserved a lot of places. If you place a deposit, Yunmeng You can still deliver food to your door, so why not benefit more diners?"

"You...you are making too much sense, you are rich and unkind!" Lao Xu suddenly became angry: "Who doesn't know that your deposit is so expensive that only rich people can afford it..."

"Mr. Xu, I make money with my own craft and ability, and I don't hinder or bully anyone. How can I be rich and unkind?" Chu Yunmeng was annoyed by this messy old man: "Could it be because we have good food and strong ability?" , Is it necessary to bow to the people of the world, give them away for free or even satisfy their needs without limit? Yunmengju is not capable of caring for all living beings!"

"This time, the food should be presented to Xu Lao. It is Xu Lao's business not to come in the future. If you want to care for sentient beings, you can find a way by yourself. But if you talk nonsense outside because of this, Yunmengju is not a vegetarian."

Chu Yunmeng shook his sleeves and left.I just adjusted my mood a little bit, how could I meet such an old rascal.

She felt bad.

On the other hand, after Gongzi Yuan returned from Yunmengju, he quietly sent people to investigate the situation of the palace gates before and after the disappearance of the princess dream, and finally found that the young master He left the palace late at night before the princess dream disappeared and did not return all night.And the night before, Princess Shu also went to the palace of Princess Dream and stayed for a long time before leaving.

Secretly investigating the whereabouts of the two before and after that night, it was found that the two of them often went in and out together for a long time before that night, no matter whether they were in the palace or outside the palace.And the longest route they took was from the palace to the station near the Beast Forest.

At the same time, Princess Meng's long-lost maid Yaoqin was also found by Prince Yuan from the abandoned cold palace of Chu Palace.

When she first found it, Yaoqin was crazy and stinking all over her body, as if she had been greatly stimulated.

After comforting her for a long time, she gradually calmed down, but obviously she couldn't ask anything.

In desperation, Prince Yuan had no choice but to keep an eye on Prince He and Princess Shu secretly.After staring at it for a long time, there was no movement.

He finally decided to lure the snake out of its hole.
