After leaving the back kitchen, he was about to go up to the second floor, when he met a group of well-dressed people at the head, surrounded by an old man with a red face and a bright yellow belt around his waist, who was also about to go upstairs.
"Axu! You're back?" the county magistrate greeted, glanced at Yu Xiaocao, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Axu, didn't you say hello in advance to let you clear the venue? Why are there other people here?"
Before Zhou Zixu could answer, he heard a loud voice saying, "Huh? Isn't this the little goblin patrolling the mountain? Why? You also come here for dinner?"
This voice seems to have been heard somewhere before, Yu Xiaocao looked over, the fat old man wearing an ivory purple gold crown, a dark brown brocade robe, and a bright yellow jade belt inlaid around his waist, did he chat with her all the way this morning? Grandpa with white beard
It turned out that he was a distinguished guest of County Magistrate Wu! She has long seen that this person has an extraordinary background, but she did not expect that he is a nobleman in the royal family of Beijing! You ask her why she is sure that the old man is a member of the royal family? nonsense! If you are not a member of the royal family, who would dare to tie bright yellow around your waist? Want to rebel?
County Magistrate Wu is a middle-aged man with an elegant face and gentle conversation. He looked at the little girl in front of him with a little surprise, who was dressed in coarse cloth, with a childish face and not enough stature. Some doubts in my heart: How could the Supreme Emperor recognize people in the countryside
But when he thought about the outfits of the Supreme Emperor and his party in the morning, he felt relieved. The Taishanghuang was born in a poor family, and he has never put any airs on the common people who are also born in a poor family. When traveling in micro-services, it is not surprising to know one or two people from poor families.
"Huh? Aren't you the old man who rode the donkey upside down in the morning?" Yu Xiaocao asked in feigned surprise.
The Supreme Emperor came over with a smile, stood two steps away from her, nodded and said, "Not bad! We just parted ways this morning, and we met here again. We are really destined!"
With his big eyes like copper bells, he looked around, smacked his lips and said, "Magistrate Wu, the restaurant you recommended is not very good! It's time to eat, except for us and this restaurant." A little girl, there are no other guests. It seems that the taste of the food is not good! How about we change to another one?"
On Wednesday, Young Master Yu and Yu Xiaocao looked at each other, with black lines all over their heads: County Magistrate Wu has already booked the restaurant down, where are the other guests
It's not easy for County Magistrate Wu to say that he hired the entire restaurant to entertain the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor hated the extravagant and wasteful bureaucracy the most when he was on tour, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.
At this time, Yu Xiaocao opened her mouth to justify the name of Zhenxiu Restaurant: "Grandpa, the food here is delicious, you will know after a taste!"
The Taishang Emperor's bodyguards, servants and so on curled their lips in their hearts, thinking: You little girl who has never seen the world, how convincing can you say? It would be better not to say it!
The Supreme Emperor is in a good mood today, thinking of teasing the little girl: "Oh? Tell me, what's delicious here?"
Yu Xiaocao said without hesitation: "There are too many! Listen... Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chick, roasted goose, braised salted duck, sauced chicken, bacon, pine flower , small belly, air-dried meat, sausage, assorted su pan, smoked chicken, white belly, steamed eight-treasure pig, duck stuffed with glutinous rice, canned pheasant, canned quail, stewed assorted, stewed goose, stewed shrimp, stewed shrimp, Shrimp in soy sauce…”
She snapped her fingers, and recited all the tongue twisters that she thought were fun to learn in one breath, without taking a breath. On Wednesday, Young Master opened his eyes wide, wondering if there are so many dishes in his store? Why doesn't he know
"Oh! Look at your eloquence!! You are good at reporting the name of the dish. Is the little girl a part-time worker in the shop?" The Taishanghuang listened to the familiar tongue twister, concealing the ecstasy in his heart. He did not expect that in this world, except for him and his family That brat, there are other time travelers!
Calm down, he has to be calm, don't show any flaws, lest this clever little rabbit should be scared away!
Unexpectedly, Yu Xiaocao was taken aback by what he said: How did he know that what he said was the tongue twister of "report the name of the dish"? Could it be that the old man in front of him is also a time traveler? Damn, what the hell is going on in this world? They will all be pierced into a sieve! !
Be calm, be sure to be calm! No matter whether the other party is a time traveler or not, you can't let the other party see the flaws! !
With an innocent expression on her face, she smiled and said: "Grandpa, didn't you ask me what delicious food I have? I just gave you the name of the dish!! How is it? Is there anything you like?"
mock up! Install, install again! ! The Supreme Emperor scolded "little fox" in his heart, but he didn't expose it, and continued to cooperate and said: "Well... you just said too many dish names too fast, my old man has a bad memory, and I didn't remember a few at all! How about it, just Pick up the specialty dishes in the store, and just order a few over here!"
On Wednesday, Young Master ordered to the shopkeeper: "Go, present all the special dishes and high-quality dishes in the store! We hope that the valuable customers will give us more valuable opinions!"
"Little girl, you can stay here and introduce the dishes to us!" The Supreme Emperor smiled like a big bad wolf seducing a little white rabbit.
Yu Xiaocao rubbed her nose and said in an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry, I'm not a waiter in this shop, so..."
"Good girl! I reported so many tempting dish names just now, which aroused the old man's appetite, but suddenly changed my mind... Are you making fun of me?" The old urchin turned into a superior person who is not angry but powerful in an instant. That momentum made the companions beside him break out in cold sweat.
Yu Xiaocao's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized that the majesty of the royal family is inviolable. Thinking of the moody and angry officials of the royal family in the book, who were smiling one second, could kill someone the next second . In an instant, her little face was pale with fright, and the circles of her eyes were also red.
Zhou Zixu braved the authority of the distinguished guest, and interceded for her: "Please take care of Xiaocao as a child, fifth master, please forgive her this time! I am willing to use my name as a guarantee, and Xiaocao will never let her go!" No teasing or disrespect…”
"Haha... the third son of the Zhou family, isn't he? He is kind, much better than that uncle of yours!" The Taishang Huang didn't keep his stern face for three minutes, and then burst into laughter again. He said softly to Xiaocao , "Little guy, are you scared? Remember this lesson in the future, some people are not something you can offend!"
Yu Xiaocao's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and her nose couldn't help but feel sour: No matter in ancient times or modern times, it is impossible for her to live a wanton and carefree life as a mere commoner. No matter where there are privileged classes.
Seeing that the little girl had tears in her eyes, the Supreme Emperor couldn't help but came over and patted her head, his voice became more gentle: "Yes! I'm crying, after all, it's a child, so don't be scared. Zhou Xiaosan, give the little girl a few good words." Food, keep it on the fifth master's head!! Touch your hair, don't be afraid..."
Wu county magistrate and his son were stunned by the emperor's ever-changing attitude. Don't look at the emperor who always smiles and has no airs on weekdays. When he plays awe-inspiring, let alone a little girl, he is so majestic that a county magistrate almost scares the urine up. The little girl was not so frightened that she burst into tears on the spot, she was considered bold.
Seeing the next second, the Supreme Emperor turned into an amiable old man again, stroking the head of the little country girl, and couldn't stop comforting him. If it weren't for the disparity in their clothes, they would almost be thought to be grandparents!
Yu Xiaocao tried her best to force her eyes back, squeezed out a smile and said: "Grandpa, you were really scary just now. You are more powerful than my grandpa when he was angry... I won't delay your meal, Xiaocao will leave..."
While talking, she curtsied slightly, took a few steps back, and then quickly retreated into the backyard as if a wolf was chasing her after her, and then she breathed a sigh of relief—oh my god, it was so scary ! In the future, she should stay at home honestly and try to avoid dealing with powerful people!
Zhou Zixu stayed at the front to personally entertain the distinguished guests. After the shopkeeper arranged for the distinguished guests to sit in the private room, he came over to the back kitchen and ordered the dishes to be served. Seeing Yu Xiaocao who was still in fear in the center of the courtyard, he tapped her a few times with his hand, and said in his mouth: "You, you! Be careful in what you say and do in the future, if you offend someone who shouldn't be offended, no one can save you! !"
The shopkeeper is several years older than Yu Hai, and he likes this clever little girl as if he is his own junior. Regarding what happened just now, he also broke into a cold sweat for her. Fortunately, the nobleman is not the one who cares about every detail and must repay every detail, otherwise even the little girl's family will suffer along with her.
Yu Xiaocao nodded obediently, and asked in a low voice: "I'm going up now, won't I run into them again?"
"No, the distinguished guests are already seated, you can go up quickly, Brother Yu has to wait!" The shopkeeper went into the kitchen after finishing his speech.
Like a little mouse avoiding a cat, Yu Xiaocao tiptoed up to the second floor, but was startled by the county magistrate who pushed the door out.
"What are you doing? It's like being a thief." Mr. Wu also had a good impression of this little girl with good cooking skills. Last time, even Yuan Yunxi, the pickiest guy, drank two big bowls of fish soup made by the little girl. Just now, if it hadn't been for Zhou Shao's help to intercede, he couldn't help but speak.
Yu Xiaocao rubbed the back of her head awkwardly, looking embarrassed. She carefully glanced at the closed door behind Mr. Wu, put her index finger to her lips and made a silent movement, and then pointed to the private room she was going to. Then, he waved to Mr. Wu, and continued to tiptoe towards the target room. When he got to the door, he quickly opened the door and walked in, as if he had been kicked out by a thief.
Mr. Wu watched her whole series of actions, and felt that this little girl was really interesting, much more interesting than those pretending ladies! He shook his head with a broad smile.
