The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Speaking of Qianweilou, Lu Qingqing thought of the bear paw still stored in the space.

When she was at Qianweilou before, she had thought of asking the chef to help her make bear paws.

Unfortunately, a series of things happened later and I left without having the chance to do anything.

Yangfeng County seems to be quite wealthy nowadays. If you meet a good chef, it won’t be a waste of the precious bear paw!

Thinking of this, Lu Qingqing was eager to try it out.

She took Qin Lang to buy some things from a roadside stall, and asked the stall owner which restaurant was the best in Yangfeng County.

I asked three people in a row, and all three gave the same answer: Ruyi Ju.

Lu Qingqing waved her hand and set off for Ruyi Residence!

Soon, the two of them drove the ox cart to Ruyi Residence.

Ruyiju is a two-story restaurant with a gold-painted plaque above the entrance with three large characters "Ruyiju" inscribed on it.

As soon as Qin Lang stopped the ox cart, the waiter who was waiting outside the door came up to him and greeted him warmly:

"My dear guests, we at Ruyi Ju have just launched our new dish, 'Honey-roasted Yellow Sparrow'. Would you like to come in and try it?"

Lu Qingqing nodded and signaled Qin Lang to get off the ox cart.

The second brother was very tactful and took the reins. He said to Lu Qingqing, who was in charge:

"Don't worry, sir. We have the best fodder on hand and will definitely stock up!"

After Lu Qingqing agreed, she pulled Qin Lang towards Ruyi Residence.

As soon as I entered the gate, the second brother standing inside shouted.

"Two distinguished guests have arrived!"

Qin Lang was startled by the clear voice and looked at the waiter warily.

Lu Qingqing patted his wrist soothingly, and Qin Lang finally relaxed.

The waiter led the two of them inside, introducing the building's signature dishes as they walked.

Lu Qingqing looked at the huge crowd in the lobby on the first floor, and thought of the last time Qin Lang was almost injured in the lobby of Qianweilou, and said directly to the waiter:

"Little Brother, is there a private room here?"

The waiter had already taken a look at the two people's clothes when they entered the door.

Seeing that the two of them were wearing ordinary cotton clothes, I had a general impression of them.

But after all, he had been a waiter for many years, so he didn't show it on his face. Hearing this, he still said politely:

"Dear guest, there is still a good private room that has not been reserved. However, the private room fee is one tael of silver. What do you think?"

Lu Qingqing waved her hand and said, "This is it. Lead the way!"

When the waiter heard her say this, the smile on his face deepened.

"Dear guests, please follow me. Be careful with the steps!"

As he spoke, he led the two of them to the private room on the second floor.

The decoration and layout of Ruyi Residence looks more luxurious than Qianwei Tower.

The private room the two entered was called Zhuyin Pavilion.

Just by hearing the name, you can tell that it has a strong literary and artistic atmosphere.

When I went in, I found it was indeed elegant, and the room was filled with a faint fragrance.

There are fresh branches of flowers on the carved wooden table in the middle.

Lu Qingqing saw a soft couch for lying on the side, and she leaned back on the cushion, unable to help but sigh.

So comfortable!

Sure enough, no matter what era, there are always people who know how to enjoy life!

Thinking about her days of sleeping in the open air for more than a year, and looking at the classical and comfortable layout of this building, she silently decided that after settling down here, she would definitely enjoy herself every once in a while.

There is so much money in her space, she can't just leave it there to gather dust.

In a flash, all kinds of thoughts flashed through Lu Qingqing's mind.

Seeing that the two men were not afraid after entering, the waiter no longer suspected that they could not afford the money and asked politely:

"My two distinguished guests, what can I do for you?"

Lu Qingqing leaned back on the couch, not wanting to listen to the long list of dishes anymore, and said directly:

"Serve all your signature dishes and pair them with two jugs of fruit wine!"

The waiter was delighted at first when he heard the generous order, as he could get a lot of commission from so many dishes.

But then, he became a little worried that Lu Qingqing and the others would not be able to pay.

He quickly counted the money in his mind and said carefully:

"Sir, our restaurant has twelve signature dishes. With the wine and drinks, it will cost about fifteen taels of silver. What do you think?"

Lu Qingqing looked at the waiter's expression and guessed what he was thinking, then took out three silver ingots from her bosom.

"Okay, make arrangements as soon as possible!"

The second brother was completely relieved when he saw the silver ingot she took out. He grinned and said:

"Okay! Please wait, I'll arrange it right away!"

Having said that, he left the private room and went to the kitchen to report the dishes.

After Lu Qingqing saw him leave, she lay down on the couch.

Qin Lang also relaxed and began to touch around the room, looking here and there.

There was a faint scent of incense in the room, which was almost imperceptible and very pleasant.

Lu Qingqing lay on the couch with her eyes closed, squinting her eyes and feeling relaxed.

It feels so good to spend money and enjoy yourself!

No, it’s just that it feels so good to have money to spend!

Immersed in the leisure and comfort, not long after, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the waiter came in with the first dish.

Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang also sat at the table, waiting to taste the delicious food.

As the lid on the plate was opened, a scent of roasted pine mixed with the sweet aroma of jujube honey wafted over.

It’s the honey-roasted yellow bird!

The skin of the yellow bird is amber in color and shiny, and the meat is golden and slightly burnt, which looks crispy and delicious!

If Lu Qingqing were to give scores based on color, aroma and taste, this dish would get full marks for its color and aroma even if the lid was only opened.

As for the taste, Lu Qingqing looked at the steaming yellow bird, picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in her mouth.

Take a bite, the skin of the yellow bird is crispy, as if it has a thin layer of sugar shell.

The bird meat inside is tender and has a hint of nectar fragrance.

Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang were both captivated by the delicious food, and had only one thought in their minds.

It’s so delicious!

If the person standing in front of her was the restaurant chef, Lu Qingqing really wanted to kidnap him.

Seeing that the two of them were satisfied with their meal, the waiter said happily:

"This honey-roasted yellow sparrow is the signature dish of my restaurant!

Throughout Yangfeng County, no one who has eaten it says it’s not delicious!

Dear guests, please enjoy your meal! "

As he spoke, he took the two jugs of fruit wine next to him and poured them into two exquisite wine cups.

Lu Qingqing took two bites of the yellow bird meat and took a sip of fruit wine.

The wine taste is not too strong, but rather has a rich fruity aroma.

One mouthful leaves a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth, with a sweet aftertaste.

The two of them took turns eating with their chopsticks, sipping fruit wine from time to time, and soon they finished the plate of honey-roasted yellow bird.

If Lu Qingqing hadn't stopped him, Qin Lang would have wanted to eat the remaining sauce on the plate.

"Daya, when we leave, let's pack a few more of this dish. It's really delicious!"

Lu Qingqing smiled and nodded. The portion of the dish was not that big, and she still hadn’t eaten enough!

Soon, the second and third dishes came up one after another.

When the fourth dish was served, the waiter placed it on the table and explained the dish before opening the lid.

"My dear guests, this dish is our restaurant's original creation, oven-roasted chicken.

The method is extremely sophisticated and requires three cooking and three baking!

Aged Huadiao wine is needed during the pickling process, and the preparation process is extremely sophisticated.

This dish is also very popular, please enjoy it!"

Having said that, the waiter bowed and retreated.
