Fortunately, these two ladies did come to the store to eat, and were not just passing by to look at the flowers as Xu Yinxin had guessed.
They ordered all the signature dishes in the store, and Xu Yin couldn't help but remind them: "Actually, our dishes are quite generous."
"Hahaha..." He Siting laughed heartily, "We ordered more, shouldn't you be happy?"
"..."
I'm worried that you won't be able to finish the food and waste it, and I won't be happy either.
Jiang Yunru returned the menu to Xu Yin and said with a smile: "It's okay, someone will come over soon."
A quarter of an hour later, two more ladies did arrive. The first thing they said when they entered the door was: "Aru, why did you put the dining venue here? This is just an ordinary small restaurant. How can it be as delicious as the private restaurant I recommended?" "
However, when the restaurant's signature dishes were served one after another, the two ladies who arrived later had no words of disgust.
Xu Yin: This is the charm of food!
After eating, Jiang Yunru and the other two were not in a hurry to leave. They sat and drank tea for a while and chatted for a while. He Siting also packed two portions of lemon chicken feet and said she would take them back to her husband and daughter to try.
Jiang Yunru looked at her sister-in-law with a smile and said to herself that she was whetted by the box of lemon chicken feet brought back by her son. Most of her sister-in-law's family would become regular customers of this store like her.
Xu Yin paid them the bill and brought them the receipt and packaged lemon chicken feet, but was stopped by Jiang Yunru:
"Little girl, I've been meaning to ask for a long time, where did you buy the flowers and spices in front of your store? They are in good condition."
Xu Yin answered with a smile: "I grew it myself for fun. I had a lot of it in my yard, so I moved a few pots to the store. If you like it, you can pick a pot and take it away."
"Then I'm welcome." Jiang Yunru said jokingly, "I moved the most beautiful pot away. You won't cry in distress later, right?"
Xu Yin didn't care about a pot of flowers, so Asha waved her hand vigorously and told her to go ahead and pick it.
He Siting burst out laughing: "My sister-in-law runs a flower shop at home and has her own planting base outside the city. She really wants a pot of flowers from you. She just wants to make you a friend. When the time comes, It’s easy to share tips on growing flowers.”
Xu Yin: "..."
Sisters, you are teasing me!
Jiang Yunru stopped teasing her, took out a business card from her exquisite handbag and handed it to Xu Yin: "Come, let's leave our contact information and invite you to my planting base tomorrow."
"Leave me a phone number too." He Siting took out her mobile phone. "Next time I come to dinner, I will contact you in advance and you can save a seat for me. Remember to tell me if your store has new dishes later."
I heard that this kind of treatment is still available? The other two ladies also took out their mobile phones and added Xu Yin as friends.
However, the three of them simply wanted to eat for convenience, so as not to have to wait for a table when they arrived, but Jiang Yunru really wanted to exchange her flower-growing experience with Xu Yin.
No, after adding a friend, Jiang Yunru would sometimes send her some newly arrived flowers in the store. When Xu Yin was interested, she would ask the girl in the store to bring a bouquet to her when she went to deliver flowers nearby. .
As a courtesy, Xu Yin would also give her a pot of flowers that she had cultivated successfully, and occasionally she would bring side dishes or snacks that were convenient for delivery.
Over time, the two became close friends, but they mostly communicated online.
On this day, Jiang Yunru called and asked Xu Yin if she was free on Saturday.
"The old master at the base has cultivated a batch of double-petaled desert roses. There happened to be a customer who wanted to buy two pots as gifts. I will take the time to go there on Saturday. Do you want to take a look? If you want, I will pick you up."
Of course Xu Yin is good. She has grown desert roses before and has flower seeds, but this is the first time she has heard of double desert roses.
Father Xu heard that she was going to the flower planting base to enjoy flowers with the proprietress of the flower shop, so he made her some snacks and side dishes suitable for eating on the road.
Xu Yin also baked some cookies, milk-flavored bread and other desserts herself.
On Saturday morning, she used an extra-large kettle to fill a pot full of refreshing scented tea suitable for summer, and set out carrying a light bag and a double-layered picnic box.
Jiang Yunru drove to pick her up and saw what she was carrying. She couldn't help but be happy: "What a little girl! This is my territory, why can I miss you for a flower tea and snacks? Why bother to prepare so hard?"
"Have you had breakfast?" Xu Yin handed her a rice ball, "I made it myself with salted egg yolk and pork crispy rice balls."
"You made it yourself? Then I have to try it."
Jiang Yunru has indeed not had breakfast yet. She usually gets up late and usually has to wait until around ten o'clock to eat breakfast. Today she has to go out. She got up before eight o'clock. After washing up and putting on light makeup, it was time to go out. She didn't even think about it. I can't afford breakfast.
Unexpectedly, the little girl paid more attention to health care than she did at such a young age. Not only did she bring her breakfast, but she also made a pot of scented tea.
The lid of the kettle was just a simple water cup. Xu Yin poured her a cup and let it cool next to it.
Jiang Yunru ate half of the rice ball and drank a cup of scented tea, then started the car and set off. With the remaining half of the rice ball, she said she would save it for later at the base.
"I usually eat breakfast late," she explained, "but I thought you students didn't like breakfast very much. My son often eats three wrong meals, stays up late at night and can't afford to wake up during the day. His biological clock is even more chaotic than mine. "
Xu Yin said with a smile: "Maybe we have a serious cook in our family. The first thing my dad does when he gets up every morning is to make breakfast. He can tell at a glance whether I have eaten or not. If I don't eat, he will keep nagging me. It’s not over.”
Jiang Yunru laughed: "That's true. I would choose to eat it instead of having to listen to the nagging."
The two chatted all the way, talking about whatever topics came to mind.
Jiang Yunru was very emotional about this: Although the girl is young, she is very knowledgeable and can talk about any topic. Especially when it comes to planting flowers and plants, it can be said to be endless.
Xu Yin also commented on her in the same way. Even though they were more than 20 years apart, there was no generation gap in communication.
This is probably what is called "like-mindedness"!
Unknowingly, we arrived at the planting base on the outskirts of Beijing.
For the first time, Jiang Yunru felt that time passed so quickly, and she felt that she had arrived not long after she set off. In the past, every time she went to the suburbs, it was too far. If it weren't for the precious land in the city, why would she drive out of the city?
"Yinyin, I really like chatting with you. Why do you have so many thoughts and ideas? If I get to know you earlier, maybe we can become partners."
On second thought, he added: "It's not good to be a partner. We can't even be friends if we have a quarrel! I think it's better to be sisters for a longer time. Isn't it popular now to be best friends? How many years am I older than you? If you don't mind, just call me Sister Ru, please don’t call me Aunt Jiang.”
Xu Yin laughed: "Okay, sister."
The two became known as sisters.
