Jiaochu

The building is full of seats. The guests who come here to eat are either rich or noble. The lights in the building are bright. As soon as you enter the door, you will feel four words: magnificent.

A waiter came to greet the guests and said that there were no seats downstairs, the boxes on the second floor were full, and there was an empty box on the third floor. Yanfei looked upstairs and saw that every private room on the second floor was guarded by servants or guards. The waiters were delivering wine and food. They were busy and orderly. It looked like they were well-trained, and they were better than Ju Fu. The waiters in the building are not bad, but there seems to be no one on the third floor, and no waiters are seen delivering wine or food. It is much deserted than the second floor, but also more mysterious and majestic, and the guests on it are becoming more and more mysterious. .

When the waiter led a group of people up to the third floor, the guests downstairs all looked up, their eyes scrutinizing the identities of Ye Lingxi and others. Yan Fei glanced around the downstairs, and when his eyes moved to the second floor, I noticed that the door of a private room opened and closed again.

Ye Lingxi asked the waiter what new dishes were served, and the waiter quickly told the names of the dishes. Ling Dang heard that they were all delicious. He was so happy that he didn't pay attention and almost shouted the word "princess", but Yan Fei coughed. Interrupting, he asked the waiter how long the restaurant had been open, and the waiter replied that it had been more than ten years.

After arriving on the third floor, the waiter led a group of people to the innermost box. After opening the door, Hehe and Lingdang both exclaimed. Neither of them expected that a box in a restaurant could be so gorgeously decorated. It was no worse than in the palace. .

The waiter took out an ordering booklet from his sleeve, with a list of dish names written in beautiful plum-flowered regular script. The cover of the booklet was also very exquisite, and it was no worse than an official's memorial. It was coated with gold powder and illuminated under the light. Glittering gold underneath.

Ye Lingxi asked Yanfei, Su Shi and Baihu what they wanted to eat. Yanfei asked her to order. Su Shi and Baihu had no objections, so she discussed with Hehe, Lingdang and Xiao Anzi what dishes to eat. Lingdang watched everything. They were all delicious. I pointed at the names of the dishes on the booklet and ordered this and that. He He said he couldn't finish all the dishes he ordered, but Xiao Anzi said seven or eight dishes plus a soup would be enough.

After ordering, the waiter went downstairs and ordered the kitchen to cook.

"Princess, will it be expensive here?" Lingdang asked.

Ye Lingxi patted his wallet to show that he had money. She looked at the furnishings in the room, including tables, chairs, benches, calligraphy, paintings and antiques. They were all valuable and high-quality goods, especially the emerald screen. It was no exaggeration to describe it as priceless. She was a little curious about who the boss of Zhenxiu Restaurant was. Who can have such financial and material resources?

"Such a fine jade screen is rare for servants to see in the palace. How can you put it up like this without fear of being stolen?" Xiao Anzi said.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked surprised and stared at the emerald screen. The emerald painting in the center suddenly changed color, and the green mountains faded away and were enveloped by a bright red maple leaf. Ling Ding rubbed his eyes to avoid looking. Wrong, he said in surprise, "Why does the painting on this still change color?!"

Ye Lingxi's expression darkened. She knew who was the boss behind Zhen Cuisine House. She didn't expect that the Xiao family had brought their business here. She knew that the Xiao family was the richest man in Jiangnan and had a big business, but now she knew about the Xiao family. The industries are spread so widely. Yan Fei glanced at Ye Lingxi and knew what she saw from her expression. He glanced again at the piece of jade that could change color. After a while, the red maple leaf disappeared again, and the faded Green hills reappear.

"I heard that there is a kind of jade that can change color. It changes color every day. Today is an eye-opener." Xiao Anzi said.

"They are all stones." It was rare for Bai Hu to take the initiative to say a word, but this was a bit strange.

Bell retorted: "Why are they stones? Stones are not valuable." Baihu said: "They are all dug out from the mountains and the ground. Some stones are beautiful and people like to look at them, so they are valuable."

Lingdang wanted to refute but couldn't find anything wrong, so she asked Ye Lingxi to comment. She said that Baihu was right, they were all stones, but some stones had to go through thousands of hammers to be extracted from the mountains, and they had to be polished countless times before they became Dazzling, some people are willing to spend money to buy it because it is worth spending money. Ling Dang didn't know much about it, but it was always right to listen to the princess anyway.

Bai Hu's expression moved slightly, thoughtfully.

At this time, the waiter came over with wine and food. Ye Lingxi did not ask for wine. The waiter said that this bottle of wine was given as a gift. It was Ner Hong who had been buried underground for ten years. It had just been opened today and was specially prepared for distinguished guests.

After the waiter left, Xiao Anzi said that the owner of Zhen Cuisine Restaurant was really powerful and had already known that distinguished guests would be arriving today. Yan Fei said meaningfully that there is no airtight wall in the world.

Ye Lingxi talked about the piece of jade that could change colors, called seven-color jade. Mrs. Xiao had sent a congratulatory gift earlier, and it was made of this seven-color jade.

Yan Fei glanced at the emerald screen. In fact, before coming here, Yan Jiang had mentioned Zhen Gourmet Restaurant to him, saying that the food there was good and the wine was delicious. If you were not in a hurry, you could go there for a meal. , and also mentioned to him that the Zhen Gourmet Restaurant was owned by the Xiao family, and maybe he could meet one or two acquaintances there.

Xiao Anzi said that this was the daughter's red of ten years, and it was a pity to miss it, so she picked up the jug and prepared to pour wine for everyone. The white pot said that Ye Lingxi was not suitable for drinking, so she said that she would just taste one cup and it would not be a problem. Xiao Anzi compromised. Pour her half a glass of wine.

Xiao Anzi poured another glass of wine for Yan Fei. While pouring wine for Su Shi, he asked if his shoulder was okay and if it still hurt. Su Shi said it was fine. Yan Fei took a sip of wine and Ye Lingxi asked him if he was okay. Drink, Yanfei nodded, but actually didn't taste the taste carefully. Bai Hu said he didn't drink, and He He was afraid of getting drunk, so Xiao Anzi poured a small cup for her. Ling Ding was not afraid of getting drunk and asked Xiao Anzi to fill it up. Ye Lingxi shook her head slightly, and Xiao Anzi also poured a cup. Xiaobei asked Lingdang to taste it first, but as soon as she drank it, she was choked by the strong aroma of the wine. He said it was spicy on her tongue, so Hehe asked her to eat the food slowly.

Ye Lingxi took a sip. The aroma of the wine was so strong and intoxicating that it turned out to be good wine that had been hidden on the ground for ten years. She slowly drank the remaining half glass of wine, still wanting to pour a second glass. Yanfei took the wine bottle. He came over and asked her to drink less wine and eat more vegetables. She remembered that someone had told her to drink less wine before. She felt a little sour in her heart and picked up her chopsticks to eat the vegetables.

After a while, the waiter came over and knocked on the door again. Xiao Anzi went to open the door, and the waiter came over with another dish, saying it was from a guest in the box on the second floor. Yan Fei asked him what happened. The man called him a name, and the man replied that he was an old friend. Yanfei asked the clerk to take him over to have a look, and told Ye Lingxi that he would come back as soon as he went. She nodded and Su Shi asked if he wanted to go with him. Yanfei said no, joking that he was not going to fight.

The guy led the way, and Yan Fei went downstairs.
