Empress Running Away with the Ball!

Chapter 55: Came to beg for food

Views:

The largest and best restaurant in Kyoto is called "Taihe House".

When Shen Ning and Xiaoru arrived at Taihe Building, they found that this restaurant was indeed well-deserved. The appearance alone was elegant and majestic.

The diners who were coming in and out were either high-ranking officials or nobles, and all of them were dressed in luxurious clothes and had an extraordinary style.

As soon as Xiao Ru saw this posture, she felt guilty. She secretly tugged on Shen Ning's sleeves and whispered: "Miss, why don't we change to a restaurant? The food in this restaurant must be very expensive. In total, we will eat Ten taels of silver, don’t have enough money to pay the bill after eating.”

However, Shen Ning waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Since we are here, let's go and have a good time. Don't save money for your lady."

She walked in grandly. Although she was wearing civilian clothes, her demeanor was no less than that of the dignitaries wearing brocade robes.

"Two distinguished guests, please come inside. Would you like to have a private seat upstairs or..."

As soon as I walked in, the waiter came up to me with an attentive look and greeted me warmly.

Before he finished speaking, the waiter's words were stuck in his throat.

Only then did he see clearly how Shen Ning and Xiao Ru were dressed, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

He had been working in Taihe Building for so long, and this was the first time he saw people wearing such shabby clothes stepping into Taihe Building. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, couldn't these two be beggars who came to beg for food

"Give us the best seats upstairs."

As soon as Shen Ning opened her mouth, Xiaoru's jaw almost dropped.

She started to wink at Shen Ning, meaning we only have ten taels of silver, so why not sit in the lobby downstairs

Shen Ning seemed not to notice, and repeated with a smile: "I want the best."

The waiter hesitated for a moment. The more he saw that the two customers looked less like they were here to eat, and more like they were here to beg.

"I'm really sorry. The seats upstairs are already full. How about you two just eat downstairs?" he said with a smile.

"Is it full? I think you look down on others and are afraid that we can't afford the food in your Taihe Building and are not worthy of sitting in the seats in your Taihe Building, right?"

Shen Ning saw through the waiter's thoughts at a glance, put away the smile on her face, and accused unceremoniously.

The waiter couldn't help but blush, thinking to himself that these two girls were really pretending to be fat, and how could they afford to pay for their Taihelou meal in such shabby clothes.

"I'll say it again, find us the best seats, and this is your reward." Shen Ning took out the ingot of silver and threw it into the waiter's arms without even looking at it.

When the waiter saw it, his eyes bulged out.

My dear, this is ten taels of silver!

He could only earn money after working in Taihe Building for a year, but the girl in front of him, who was dressed in inconspicuous clothes, actually used it casually to reward others. It seems that these days, people really cannot be judged by their appearance!

"Yes, yes, please come upstairs to invite us two distinguished guests."

A smile appeared on the waiter's face, and he led Shen Ning and Xiao Ru upstairs with great attentiveness.

Xiao Ru, however, looked shocked, with disbelief on his face.

She kept shouting in her heart: My good lady, you are so generous. You reward me with ten taels of silver as soon as you make a move. This is our entire property!

We are so poor now, what will we use to pay for our meals soon

Her face was as elongated as a bitter gourd. Shen Ning held her hand and entered the private seats on the second floor.

However, Shen Ning didn't seem at all worried about not having the money to pay the bill. As soon as she entered the door, she took a good look at the furnishings in the dining room, with a smile on her face and high interest.
