West Lake, Li family?
Yan Shouyi's steps paused, and his heart felt a little rippled.
Even though Yan Shouyi was not surprised when he heard that a certain powerful family had blocked the waters of West Lake, Yan Shouyi was still a little surprised when he learned that this powerful family was the Li family of West Lake.
Rongcheng is not big, but it is not small either, but it seems reasonable to meet the West Lake Li family in West Lake.
After a brief period of confusion, Yan Shouyi quickly adjusted his mentality and became calm again.
However, he still paid some attention and wanted to observe what the Li family was like before revealing his identity.
after all--
That is also the in-laws in the marriage contract.
After walking through the long bridge corridor, the two finally arrived at the West Lake Yaju. They pushed open the quaint door. Courteous waiters in robes knelt on both sides. One of them handed over two pairs of exquisite cloth shoes to them. Yan Shouyi and Huang Hai replaced.
"Two distinguished guests, welcome to Xihu Yaju," the man said politely, "I guess you are Mr. Huang and Mr. Yan. Please follow me upstairs. The tea has been prepared and the dishes are ready to be served at any time. "
This West Lake Yaju was just as he expected. Since Zeng Yuchu was invited to be the chef, he would naturally follow the rules of entertaining the emperor when entertaining guests. Although Huang Hai was in Yan Shouyi's favor, he was still a little arrogant at this time.
Especially the waiters kneeling on both sides, even the fat robes can't hide their proud figures. Here, from the manager to the cleaning workers, they are all carefully selected, with age. Must be under the age of twenty-five, and must be elegant and beautiful in appearance. Only a little makeup is allowed when working to restore the most simple beauty. The smell of heavy makeup will cause discomfort to customers.
Some old antiques can be seen everywhere in Xihu Yaju, and calligraphy and paintings are hung all over the walls. There are also photos and calligraphy of some contemporary celebrities, which are always reminders of the specifications and grades of Xihu Yaju.
Not long after Yan Shouyi and the others went upstairs, another group of people also arrived at Xihu Yaju.
There were eight people in this group, who looked like two families of three, with a driver and a nanny, who was also holding a newborn baby in her arms.
The two families of three were all dressed in low-key and luxurious clothes. They seemed to have a good temperament at first glance, but they were not wearing any gold or silver. After a closer look, it was discovered that they were wearing just a few pieces of clothing. For hundreds of thousands, a watch is something that ordinary people would find difficult to buy in a few lifetimes.
Two families of three, each with two young people, a boy and a girl.
When the girl was changing her shoes, she suddenly noticed a pair of tattered cloth shoes on the shoe rack. There was some yellow mud on the shoes, which made her face instantly look ugly.
"Whose shoes are these? Why are they placed here?" The girl pointed at the shoes and said coldly, "If our shoes are placed next to these shoes, what should we do if they get mud and smell?"
The waiter knew that this girl was not someone they could afford, so he quickly explained:
"These are the shoes of a guest. Don't worry, Miss Li, we will keep your shoes separately."
"No, just throw away these shoes, they are an eyesore to me!" the girl said in a commanding tone.
The waiter didn't dare to disobey, so he could only put on his gloves, throw Yan Shouyi's shoes into the West Lake, and then throw the gloves in too.
The girl was then satisfied: "It's a pity. They should have just burned the shoes and thrown them into the West Lake of our Li family. It polluted the water of the West Lake."
The pollution she mentioned was not referring to the garbage of shoes, but she was worried that the "poor air" on the shoes would contaminate the lake water of her Li family.
"Qing'er, those who come to West Lake Yaju are not ordinary people. Although our Li family has nothing to fear in Rongcheng, we should try our best not to cause trouble." A middle-aged man warned the girl.
The girl smiled and said, "It's just a pair of broken shoes. I'll pay him some money later!"
The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly, but didn't say much. In fact, he didn't really care. The preaching was just to show the majesty of his father.
The middle-aged woman said: "Come up quickly. Today is a happy day for our Li family to have a baby. Don't let these trivial matters disturb your mood."
Then, led by the waiter, the group walked upstairs along the stairs.
The waiters who stayed behind felt a little embarrassed for a while looking at the still bubbling lake water.
They lost Yan Shouyi's shoes, and Yan Shouyi came later. What should I do if I blame them?
There was no way they could pass the responsibility to the eldest lady named Li Qing'er just now. In the final analysis, they had to take care of this matter themselves.
…
On the third floor of Xihu Yaju, there are three doors in the corridor. The room numbers are "Qing", "Dan" and "Ya". There is no distinction between the three.
The waiter led them and knocked on the door of the "Dan" room, and soon a voice came from inside: "Please come in."
Opening the door, there is a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window. In front of a wooden couch, a teapot is emitting white steam. The dining table with only three chairs on the other side is still empty.
Huang Hai saluted respectfully and said:
"The leader, the second elder, the successor of Luban, Mr. Yan, are here."
In fact, the leader is Huang Hai's senior uncle, and the second elder is his senior brother, but this is a formal occasion and Huang Hai cannot call them that.
"Just back off."
"yes."
Huang Hai retreated to the door, guarded it, and closed the door.
Yan Shou stood still and looked at the two people on the sofa.
The leader of the Lushan Sect is named Lu Jingsheng. He is a little old man with a white beard. He seems to be only 1.4 meters tall. It is not a spacious sofa on which he can sit cross-legged; today he is wearing Wearing a white training suit and a string of wooden beads on his wrist, he looked like an old man who had just returned home from Tai Chi in the park.
The other person is the second elder of the Lushan sect. The second elder is named Tong Jiuhua. He is a middle-aged man. His clothes are much more fashionable. He wears many trinkets that look like jewelry but are actually magical weapons, such as bracelets. , bracelets, rings, necklaces, earrings...even nose rings, he basically wore them wherever he could wear them. In addition, he also held a folding fan in one hand and walnuts in the other, both hands were busy. .
When Yan Shouyi looked at them, they were also looking at Yan Shouyi.
"My friend, please sit down." Lu Jingsheng pointed to the seat in front of him.
Yan Shouyi said thank you and sat across from Lu Jingsheng. Tong Jiuhua put down his folding fan, poured hot water out of a pot of tea, and poured a cup for Yan Shouyi.
"Come and have a taste."
In China, tea culture has penetrated into the life of every southerner. Whether it is discussing business or meeting relatives and friends, it is inevitable to have tea on the table.
Yan Shouyi was very adaptable to the environment here, so he took the tea cup with three fingers, looked at it, smelled it, and drank it slowly in three sips.
After thinking about it, Yan Shou put down his tea cup and said with a smile:
"Headmaster Lu, Elder Tong, I am just a descendant of Luban, and I am still a young boy. You actually entertain me with tea leaves from the Dahongpao mother tree. I am really flattered!"
