Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 148 Opening ([-])
Zhuang Yue was in charge of the VIP seats, and from time to time he looked up at the boys who were entertaining ordinary guests, to see if there was anything inappropriate about what they were doing.

Looking at it this way, he was very grateful that his young master replaced Chen Jiaxing and Liu Ze in time.

All these guests flocked here just now, and it was inevitable that the tea and snacks would not be served in a timely manner. Some impatient guests shouted, and the waiter even said a few nasty things when he arrived, such as "Did you see that the master is not dressed like him?" Okay, so let him go first and ignore me" and other nonsense.

If the two of Chen Jiaxing were here, they would have to reply: "Whose master are you? You deserve to be called master in front of me!" Then there would be troubles to watch.

You must know that the servants of the Guan Mansion are also of great status in the eyes of the common people. They dress better than others, eat not bad, and have a lot of monthly money on them. There are not a few women in the mansion who wear gold and silver. , better than the lady from that small family.

Therefore, the servants of the Guan mansion all went out with a sense of arrogance.Let Chen Jiaxing and Liu Ze, two fake young masters spoiled by their families, serve people?If there is no trouble, it will be a strange thing.

And look at the present, Wang Lusheng, Zhang Gou'er, Lu Xiaobei and Qian Youcai, who came out to help because they were behind Qian Dongbao in their schedule, are all people at the bottom of society.In order to make a living, what is this little talk of words to them?I have seen many ugly faces and ugly words, how can they be serious with others?Say a few nice words with a joke, and it's over.

So although there were many people busy in front of us, nothing happened.If a customer quarrels over a seat, the clever Lu Xiaobei will go forward to mediate, such as finding a small table, arranging the person to sit by the railing, and offering to give the other party a penny for tea. The money made the person who didn't win the position very satisfied, and the dispute was calmed down in one fell swoop.

Because of their status as academy students, Guan Jiaze and the others couldn't go out to greet guests, so they all hid behind the curtain at the front desk to watch.Seeing such a situation, and thinking about the performance of Chen Jiaxing and the other two, Guan Jiaze felt even more ashamed.

He said to Du Jinning: "Fortunately, you reminded me to replace Chen Jiaxing and Liu Ze, otherwise our teahouse would have its signboard smashed. Alas, what happened before was all my fault. I apologize to you again."

Zhang Hongwen opened his blank eyes, looked at Guan Jiaze who was full of shame, and then at Du Jinning, not understanding what was going on.

Ever since Guan Jiaze and Du Jinning had a conflict, Zhang Hongwen wasn't there.Because he wanted to apologize to Du Jinning yesterday, Guan Jiaze deliberately didn't invite Zhang Hongwen over, for fear of losing face in front of him.So Zhang Hongwen didn't know what happened in the past few days.

"What are you talking about, two brothers, what are you saying about apologizing or not? I also did something wrong, so please forgive me." Du Jinning laughed.

After finishing speaking, seeing Zhang Hongwen looking at him, Du Jinning said, "I had an argument with Guan Jiaze about who to use as the mistress, and it's okay."

She knew that Zhang Hongwen's status was lower than Guan Jiaze's and Qi Muyuan's, and he didn't have a strong heart like a time traveler like her, so he would think too much when encountering things.For example, if she didn't explain to Guan Jiaze what happened just now, he would think that their small group had some secrets, and if he didn't tell him, he would feel excluded.

So she explained this sentence.

Because of this explanation, Guan Jiaze was more grateful to Du Jinning and felt even more ashamed.

Du Jinning and Zhang Hongwen had the same status and status, and they also got along well in private. It was normal for Du Jinning to confide in Zhang Hongwen with grievances in his heart.But he didn't say anything, and he helped find such an excuse at this time, which really took care of his Guan Jiaze's face, and finally didn't let him lose face to Class B.

Du Jinning saw that the tea guests had all sat down, so he turned to Qian Dongbao who was waiting beside him and said, "It's time to start."

Qi Muyuan frowned: "There are still four VIP seats that have not come."

Du Jinning shook his head: "There's no need to wait, it will start as soon as the tea guests are seated."

She explained: "Someone went to the VIP table just now, but the customer sitting in the middle reserved a seat, and the shopkeeper Zhuang stopped him. If we waited for those people on purpose, it will make other tea customers feel that we are Not being respected also makes us look snobbish; secondly, it also makes the people in the VIP seats feel that they are uncles. He will be late tomorrow, but you didn’t wait for him, and he will definitely feel uncomfortable. So, we will arrive later Just start, don’t care who comes and who doesn’t.”

"I see." Guan Jiaze suddenly realized.

"Then the brat is on stage?" Qian Dongbao asked for instructions.

"Go."

Qian Dongbao straightened his clothes, then walked outside the curtain, said hello to everyone, said a few more polite words, and then began to talk about books.

Zhong Yanqing, who was sitting under the stage, was a little anxious, and muttered: "What's the matter, Sier? Why haven't you come here for so long?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone coming in, Zhong Yanqing turned his head and looked, isn't it just Mr. Li and four other friends?
He had already started to tell a story, but Zhong Yanqing didn't want to make a sound, he waved to them, motioning them to come and sit here.Si'er also led the way, and finally placed them in their positions.

Zhuang Yue and Wang Lusheng brought tea and snacks to each table in time.

"Hey, this old clock, I'm willing to part with it today." Master Li's name is Li Ming. Seeing the shopkeeper pour a handful of tender tea leaves into the tea bowl, Xiao Er rushed the water down in time, and the fragrance of tea leaves wafted through the dense mist. The snacks on the table looked extremely delicate and delicious, and he couldn't help but praise in a low voice.

Si'er, who was about to go back to sit down on his little son, heard this and couldn't help pursing his lips and laughing.

My master spent a little money, but sold a big favor.It's a good deal for this guest.

Zhong Yanqing ignored these friends, his mind was deeply attracted by Qian Dongbao's storytelling on stage.

"...Yang Tiexin shouted loudly, grabbed the handle of the gun with both hands, twisted his waist and straightened his arms suddenly, turned around and fired the gun, directly stabbing the Taoist's face. This spear was fierce and fast, just like the Yang family's marksmanship. "Returning the carbine" is a move of his own. When ancestor Yang Tiexin faced the enemy in the battlefield, he used this move to assassinate countless generals, and it was extremely powerful."

Zhong Yanqing is a person who likes a stable and peaceful life, and he doesn't particularly like to read the kind of books about knights in the rivers and lakes, but now, after hearing Qian Dongbao's description, he couldn't help but feel hearty, and couldn't help but shouted loudly: "Okay .”

At the same time, he was not the only one who applauded, those guests who liked to be full of enthusiasm had already heard their blood boil, shouted hello, and threw the copper coins in their hands on the stage.

Zhong Yanqing couldn't help throwing a few copper coins up.All of a sudden, copper coins jingled on the high platform.

Qian Dongbao is an old man, he said two good things when he was young, and he also experienced this kind of scene.

He didn't stop, and continued to talk: "The Taoist saw that the tip of the gun had reached the door in an instant, and shouted: "Good marksmanship!" He closed his palms together, and with a snap, he had already held the tip of the gun between his palms... ..."
