Both Bova and Emil wanted to go to a high-end restaurant, but Tang Niannian objected. Based on her experience as a foodie for several generations, if she wanted to eat authentic local food, she had to go to the Fly Restaurant in the alley.
It also needs to be a small restaurant that doesn’t look very clean and is old, preferably a husband-and-wife team. The boss cooks, wears a greasy apron, has a cigarette in his mouth, and wears flip-flops, casual and lazy. They cook on the ground, and the proprietress is the waiter and cashier. As a married couple, the food is delicious.
Tang Niannian found the uncles and aunties chatting in the alley and asked about the small restaurant in authentic Cantonese.
"Go forward a hundred meters, turn left and go in. Walk another fifty meters and there is a Guanghui Restaurant. The food is super good!"
The uncles and aunts were very enthusiastic and wanted to guide them, but Tang Niannian refused. She could easily find this route.
It’s not hard to find the Guanghui Hotel, you can find it within a few minutes’ walk. There are no private restaurants now, they are all state-owned, but the uncles and aunties said that this Guanghui Hotel used to be called Huangji Chicken Restaurant.
This chicken shop sells real chicken. This shop is famous for its plain-cut chicken, and the soup is also on point.
After publicization, it was renamed Guanghui Hotel.
The restaurant looked quite a few years old at first glance. The tables and chairs had traces of time. There were many guests. Tang Niannian found an empty table and ordered the restaurant's signature dishes. Each person also ordered a cup of soup.
Tang Niannian paid the ticket and just sat down when he saw Zhao Fanghua and Tang Changfeng entering the store.
"This shop used to be called Huang Ji Chicken Shop. The white chicken is delicious, but I like to drink their soup. I haven't had it in a long time."
Zhao Fanghua was a good conversationalist and introduced the history of the hotel to Hans. She spoke in English and spoke slowly. Although her voice was a little hoarse, it was very pleasant to listen to. It sounded like a person with a strong psychological core and a stable core.
"Mike, do you want to eat with us?"
Zhao Fanghua invited Tang Changfeng with a smile. She liked this boy very much. He had protected her from disaster in the elevator just now. He was really a warm-hearted and kind-hearted boy.
She also looks handsome. If she had a grandson, she would be as good-looking as well, right?
"OK!"
Tang Changfeng readily agreed. He also liked Zhao Fanghua. He felt that she was knowledgeable, knowledgeable and well-spoken, like a kind-hearted elder.
If his grandma were alive, this would probably be like this, right?
"Miss, there are no seats!"
Sister Cui looked around and saw that they were all full.
"It's okay, we'll see you later." Zhao Fanghua was not in a hurry. At her age, many things have been ignored.
Unless it was a matter of life or death, nothing would make her anxious and lose her temper.
"But you can't stand for a long time. I'll ask the boss."
Sister Cui was worried about Zhao Fanghua's health and ran to the hotel manager. She politely explained Zhao Fanghua's physical condition. When the manager saw that there were foreign friends and overseas compatriots, he immediately said that he would find a solution.
The manager found Tang Niannian and asked if he could move inside to make room for foreign friends.
"Look, that old lady is not in good health and can't stand for a long time. Like you, she is here to participate in the Canton Fair. Can you be accommodating?"
The manager pointed towards Zhao Fanghua and explained the situation.
The reason why she considered Tang Niannian was because there were also foreigners here, so it would be more appropriate to sit together. Moreover, Tang Niannian's side was close to the wall, so squeezing in could make room for a table.
Tang Niannian looked over, and Zhao Fanghua smiled at her and nodded.
"Can!"
Tang Niannian agreed. She had a good impression of this beautiful old lady.
"Thank you, comrade. I'll move the table."
The manager thanked him profusely, called the waiter, and brought over a table and stools. Tang Niannian and the others squeezed toward the wall, making just enough space for the table to sit down.
"Thank you, comrade, for your profound understanding and righteousness!"
The manager said a lot of thanks before going to arrange the meals.
Sister Cui helped Zhao Fanghua sit down and took out a handkerchief to wipe the dining table. After Tang Changfeng entered the restaurant, he looked around curiously but did not see Tang Niannian.
He finally looked around the whole hotel, his curiosity was greatly satisfied, and he sighed: "This place is very different from the other side in Xiangjiang. I feel that the people here are more energetic and have bright eyes. Unlike the people in Xiangjiang, their eyes are bright." Godless and very impersonal.”
"The pressure in Xiangjiang is high, and life is quite tiring."
Zhao Fanghua also felt deeply. Before she went abroad, she lived in Xiangjiang for a while.
However, she received a large fortune from the Tang family, so she didn't have to run around for three meals a day, and she lived in a villa on the mountainside. But she could still feel the hard work of the people at the bottom of Xiangjiang. To put it harshly, as long as she could still breathe, she could still breathe. If you can move, you have to keep working until you die.
"Yes, the people over there are so tired. My classmate's grandparents are all in their seventies or eighties, and they have to leave early and come back late to work to earn money. Their family of six lives in a house less than 30 feet tall. I went inside the house once and it was so suffocating!”
Tang Changfeng sat with his back to Tang Niannian and chatted with Zhao Fanghua.
The classmate he mentioned was also his good friend and formed a band with him.
"Having a house to live in is already very good, and your classmate is a college student. If he can find a decent job after graduation, the future will be good." Zhao Fanghua said with a smile.
At first glance, Tang Changfeng is a child who comes from a superior family and has never experienced hardship. However, he can still maintain a kind heart and make friends without family prejudice, which is very rare.
but--
"If your classmate asked you to borrow money, would you borrow it?"
Zhao Fanghua couldn't help but ask.
For some reason, the more she and Tang Changfeng chatted, the more they became more and more interested. She couldn't help but want to teach him some principles of life, so that the child would avoid some detours.
"Of course I can borrow it. He is not only my classmate, but also my good friend. I will definitely borrow it if I have money."
Tang Changfeng blurted out without thinking.
Zhao Fanghua originally wanted to talk, but she felt that the relationship was shallow and deep. After all, she and the child had just met, and she had no position or qualification to say this.
"You are a good boy, but even if you borrow money, you must leave enough for yourself to live on, so that you don't have to eat by then."
Zhao Fanghua reminded with a smile.
"Don't worry, my eldest brother won't let me go hungry. My eldest brother is very capable."
Tang Changfeng smiled very heartlessly and heartlessly.
Tang Niannian heard their conversation clearly and couldn't help but look at this stupid boy with a lot of money. He only saw a little profile. He should be a good-looking boy, but he was a little stupid.
In all likelihood, he will be severely beaten by society in the future. That very capable elder brother is a bit pitiful and has to constantly wipe the butt of his stupid younger brother.
Tang Niannian complained a few words in her mind, and then she didn't care about Tang Changfeng anymore, because when the soup came, each person took a cup of soup, opened the lid, and the aroma came out.
"Drink it while it's hot, and drink the soup before meals to warm your stomach."
Tang Niannian reminded Bova and Emil, said something to Tang Jianshu and the others, and then drank by herself.
