The fact that Xiao Linfeng and Xiao Linwen went to Luohe Prefecture is known only to the Xiao family, the Su family, and Youjin. Although the Xiao family has now been exempted from the death penalty, the two Xiao Hairu brothers are still in exile, and the two are still fugitives. After the whereabouts, not only will they be finished, but the Su family who harbored the criminals will also be finished, so this matter is really hidden, and it is hard not to leak any rumors.
Although Xiao Linfeng was muddled, he knew that it was a big deal. After confirming that his family was all right, he quietly left on a snowy night before the end of the year.
"I don't know when I will be able to do my filial piety under my mother's knees again this time. Please take care of myself!" Before leaving, Xiao Linfeng knelt heavily in the snow and slammed three times. With a loud bang, his eyes turned red, but he still held it in. It seemed that the teenager who had grown up overnight said goodbye to his relatives, took a deep look at his relatives who were also holding back tears, and flew on his horse, bringing his cousin and four The five guards left Luohe Prefecture in a hurry.
With tears in her eyes, Yu watched the back of the cloak lifted high by the night wind gradually disappear into the dark night, heartbroken, she only has this son, but for his future life, not only the mother and son cannot be reunited, but the son. She has to change her name and surname from now on, just to continue her Xiao family bloodline.
"It's windy outside, I'll help Auntie back." Although Young Jin is of a thin body, she is much stronger than the average woman. With almost the whole weight of Yu's body on her, she can also help people walk steadily. Sure. Over there, Xiao Linru also supported the Zhao family, and the group of four returned to the warm room and drank another cup of steaming soup before they warmed up.
Knowing that everything is fine with the younger son, Young Jin in the northern Xinjiang also sent someone to take care of him. Even the eldest son, whose body was not found, Young Jin also used the jasper hairpin he had given to Young Jin as a relic to help him stay in the Su family. In the bamboo forest not far behind the yard, there is a tomb of clothes and crowns. Yu only feels that all the things that he is thinking about now are settled. All this is thanks to the kind Su family, so the matter of the Su family banquet is even more important. I've been thinking about it, from where to carry a plum blossom, a clump of green bamboo, to buying a cup for drinking tea and drinking, all of them are dedicated to the opening of the Su Family Banquet.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Shangyuan Festival.
Although it was still a bit cold in early spring, it was a rare good day in Shangyuan.
"It was sleet and snow a few days ago, and it was freezing to death. I didn't expect the sun to come out today. It's really a good day." Mrs. Yu sat beside Mrs. Su with a smile, and had a chance to meet her. He talked, in order to ease the nervousness of Su Shi's emotions.
Today is the first official appearance of the craftsmanship of the Su family's royal chef. Her heart is now pounding like a drumstick, and her hands under the large and warm cloak are entangled like knots, and she is too nervous. , even Yu's talk to her is half listening and half missing.
The three carriages here carried the Su family members to Luohe Prefecture. At the other end of the Sujia banquet in Luohe Prefecture, men and women wore bamboo green and lotus purple narrow-sleeved tops and trousers of the same color. The left front of the tops was still straight The three characters "Su Jiayan" were embroidered on the ground. Everyone is in an orderly manner, performing their duties in order to arrange and clean up, and the official opening can be officially opened as soon as the auspicious time arrives.
Third Master Huang is a well-known glutton in Luohe Prefecture, so he naturally has his own connections. Before Su Jiayan opened, Young Jin hadn't thought of this, so Third Master Huang went to the door himself and came up with a good idea for her: "Let's You can hold an opening banquet. Huang is not talented, but he is a little successful in terms of food. If you invite all the famous gluttons in Luohe Prefecture, it should not be possible to conquer these old gluttons with his wife's craftsmanship. It's hard to say, with their endorsement, Su Jiayan will definitely be a hit."
You Jin agreed without thinking about it. As for the invitation to those gluttons, it was naturally up to the third master Huang. Huang Sanye's face is really good, but in two days, 19 food connoisseurs who can be regarded as prominent in Luohe Prefecture have been invited to come. The Su Family Banquet has not yet officially opened, and the invited guests have already arrived. , and the lion dance team was performing at the entrance of the Su family banquet, which attracted countless onlookers.
You Jin stood in the corridor outside the second-floor wing, looking at the lively scene on the first floor, and smiled happily: "Today, it's not worth the sweat that we all worked hard for a few months."
Su Jiayan is mainly for the mid-to-high-end route. From the moment you enter the restaurant, you can see the menu signs on the whole wall behind the counter. They are all written in beautiful block letters. Seven categories are listed, and a whole wall of menus attracts every guest who walks into the Su Family Banquet.
The lobby on the first floor can accommodate 48 tables for guests. It is divided into four areas of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Each area has 12 tables, which are separated by corresponding themed screens, potted plants, and miniature rockery landscapes. The five people embraced the size of the rockery and flowing water, and there are several koi tails, which is very interesting.
Follow the stairs about the width of four people by the atrium to the second floor. There are twenty-four wing rooms, named after the twenty-four solar terms. After coming down from the second floor, walk through the winding path for about twenty steps, and then come to Su's house. The wing behind the banquet, the backyard of the original shop plus the one-acre yard that was bought later, the nearly two-acre courtyard is divided into four courtyards according to the ideas of Yu and Zhao, like the lobby in front, according to the plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Each courtyard has four wing rooms, focusing on the privacy of the guests, mainly providing guests with quiet and comfortable dining and temporary resting places.
When Mr. Huang took his guests around in the backyard, Er Youjin had already set off firecrackers in front of him, and the three characters of the signboard "Su Jiayan" written in gilded lines stood out in the sunlight of early spring;
In the lobby, the little guys running the hall were so busy that they didn't touch the ground, and the little girl who was in charge of serving tea also made pots of Su's tea for the guests;
In the back kitchen, in the small kitchen opened up for the Su family alone, the Su family and the two cooks of the Su family were busy preparing for the opening tasting banquet;
In the back kitchen outside the small kitchen, the four chefs of Chuanlu Yuehuai also have their own dedicated cooktops, second cooks and apprentices. .
Most of the guests invited this time are selling the face of the third master of Huang. Most of them are delicious and can eat it. Naturally, they know how many good cooks there are in the border of Luohe Prefecture. After leaving, presumably this Su family banquet only invited some little-known cooks. If it weren't for the fact that he still had some affection with the third master of Huang, most of them would not have attended.
Third Master Huang saw that many of the guests were absent-minded, with the same smile on their faces. Their attitude was understandable, but he had 100% confidence in his wife's craftsmanship. After taking them around for a while, news came from the guy in the back kitchen, and the third master Huang took many guests into the wing room that had been prepared earlier to have tea and chat.
"Dear guests, it's time to serve!" The head is Young Jin, who has been busy before. The third master of Huang has another purpose for calling these old gluttons this time, which is to push Young Jin out. Now the Su family's business is getting bigger and bigger. , her master naturally needs a suitable scene to enter the circle of Luohezhou shopping mall. Most of the guests who came today were people with some face in the Luohezhou shopping mall, so it was naturally the most suitable opportunity.
When the guests heard a girl's voice calling for food, they thought it was the maid of the restaurant, but seeing that the clothes were made of rich and noble people, they didn't know what to call her for a while, but fortunately, Mr. Huang interjected in time: "Everyone, this It is the owner of Su Jiayan, and the owner of Mr. Huang today, Miss Su. This Su Jiayan, Su Jiaxiang, and Su Jiami were all created by our owner."
"So that's the case, Miss Su is a girl!" Although all the guests were men, most of them were about the same age as the third master Huang. When they saw such a delicate little girl coming in, they thought it was a girl from some family. , Unexpectedly, it is the owner of Su Jiaxiang, who has been in Luohe Prefecture all of a sudden in recent years!
The astonishing and appreciative gazes of the guests in the banquet fell on You Jin, who just smiled faintly and said, "The little girl is just a petty mess, and the elders will take more care of her in the future." A dish is placed on a special wooden round table imitating a modern turntable round table, and the dishes are introduced to everyone: "Ruyi Soup, Golden Leg Roasted Fish, Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang, Sushan Zhen, Osmanthus Eight Treasures Duck, Chenpi Beef, Hot and Sour Cucumber. , Yipin Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, the small shop has just opened, please give me some advice or two."
From the time the first dish came to the table, the eyes of this group of gluttons were all rounded, and each dish was truly "full of color, aroma and taste". One of them was a little older, and the old man sitting in the first place first raised his chopsticks and took a piece of Babao duck with a very delicious sauce into the bowl and tasted it, and said: "It seems that the old man has not come in vain today, and Huang San'er did not fool the old man. what!"
The third master Huang smiled happily and said, "Who doesn't know that Fifth Master He's tongue is the most intelligent. If the boy doesn't have any real materials, how dare you ask you to come out?" You must know that Fifth Master He is a group from Luohezhou. The one with the highest status among the gluttonous eaters, if he gave a good review for Su Jiayan, would he still have to worry about it in the future? Therefore, he really invited He Wuye for three times. As expected, his wife's craftsmanship was recognized, and Huang Sanye himself was quietly relieved. Fortunately, this matter was not broken.
He Wuye gave a good evaluation, and others also picked up chopsticks. From the moment the first chopsticks were put into their mouths, everyone looked bright and fell into Young Jin's eyes, and Young Jin exited with a satisfied smile. to Lanyuan.
On the opening day, the business of Su Family Banquet was not a big hit, but since the day it opened, many gluttons in Luohe Prefecture voluntarily endorsed Su Family Banquet, even the most respected fifth master in the gluttonous circle. It was mentioned more than once that he wanted to try the Ruyi soup of Su Jiayan again. Originally, other restaurants of the same level were not optimistic about Su Jiayan, and it became an instant hit.
As for those old gluttons who declined the invitation of the third master of Huang, listening to other old friends who attended the banquet again and again, their faces became very ugly, and they heard that the special dishes of that day were stipulated by the Su family banquet every day. Only the first ten table guests can order, and each table can only order one! I couldn't help but beat my chest and feel annoyed at why I rejected others that day!
But now it's useless to regret it. The special dishes of the Su family banquet are only ten dishes a day, and they are immediately ordered when they open for business every day. These old eaters who rejected the third master Huang at the beginning have to form a group every day. Su Jiayan squatted, and as soon as the door was opened, he immediately rushed in to order food, and he didn't want any face and dignity of the old glutton.
But since a gluttonous glutton can be called a gluttonous eater, what kind of shame is it to queue up for food? When they finally tasted the legendary special dishes of Su Jiayan, they shed tears while fighting with chopsticks to grab the dishes. The tears were first because they were excited, Su Jiayan was really delicious, and secondly, they were remorseful. Why did they act stupid in the first place? To refuse! Otherwise, you would have been able to eat a whole table of twenty dishes instead of only one meal a day, which is not guaranteed to be eaten every day!
"Hunger marketing or something is really effective!" Seeing that the daily turnover is soaring, Young Jin is in a really good mood these days.
