However, he said that Lu Dongbin had been helped by Gou Yao, and not only did his life get better, but the relationship between the two families was also stronger than before, and they often exchanged letters.
At that time, it was under the rule of the Dasheng Dynasty, but the traitors in the dynasty were in power, and the national teacher disturbed the government, and the world was already in chaos.
Because of the relationship with Gou Yao, Lu Dongbin's family returned to the original rich life, and even often did good deeds to help the poor.
Lu Dongbin was a restless man who liked to be at ease. After staying at home for another year, he bid farewell to his family and traveled the world with his sword in his hands.
Along the way, what he saw and heard made him realize a lot.
After several months of wandering, I came to the realm of the capital, where chaos was born elsewhere, but the capital was still a bustling scene, so I wanted to play.
Taoxianglou is the number one building in the capital. It has a wide variety of famous wines and dishes. It can be said that it has everything. The ancestors of the taoxianglou are all the royal chefs in the palace. They have won the favor of the emperors of all dynasties. The craftsmanship of the ancestors, so this restaurant was opened in the capital.
All kinds of dignitaries and celebrities from the upper world are frequent visitors here.
Lu Dongbin passed by this place and heard that the food and drink at Taoxiang Tower was special, so he naturally refused to let it go. Although the cost of this place is huge and ordinary people can't afford it at all, for Lu Dongbin, it is still acceptable.
However, he had just entered the restaurant, and was immediately attracted by a loud noise. He followed the sound and saw that on the right side of the lobby, at a table near the window, sat a fat old man with big ears and a happy face.
The old man revealed his belly, holding a banana fan in his right hand and a wine jug in his left hand.
A junior next to him, blushing, asked him for wine money.
After a question, Lu Dongbin finally understood.
It turned out that the old man went into the restaurant to eat and drink. The young man saw his appearance and was afraid that he would not be able to pay, so he asked for it in advance.
Xiao Er was in a hurry, so he quarreled with him.
"Old gentleman, it's not a small person looking down on you, but you have eaten so much of this wine and food. In addition, the price of our Taoxianglou is not as good as other places. I'd better ask the old gentleman to pay for the wine first, and then it's not too late to eat."
At this moment, the little Er was unrelenting, and always pestered him to ask for money.
At first, he saw the old man's happy face, and his clothes were very bright. He thought he was not an ordinary person, so he invited him in.
But after the old man came in, he ordered a lot of expensive dishes. The value of the drinks alone had already reached 12 taels of silver, so he couldn't help but be surprised and suspicious, fearing that this person came to eat Bawang's meal on purpose.
Although they are not ordinary restaurants, and they have the support of the imperial court behind them, the ancestral teaching passed down by the ancestors of the past dynasties is that it is not right for people, and you are a guest when you enter the door. From the starting price, the food and drink of Taoxiang Lou is free to choose.
Even if you meet someone who eats Bawang's meal, you can't be rude. The usual way to deal with it is to report to the official. How to judge, let the government decide.
It is precisely because of this that the reputation of Taoxianglou has remained high.
But no matter what, he invited him in for personnel affairs, and he also wanted to serve food and drinks. If the old man really had no money to pay the bill, even if he had to go to the government, he could not escape being taught by the shopkeeper.

If the wages are deducted at that time, it will be even more miserable.
"Hey! The second brother is really ignorant, can't understand the words of a certain family or what? If the food is not finished, the wine is not fully enjoyed, how can you force the guests to pay the bill? A certain family will not lose your wine money. …”
As the old man spoke, he raised the jug and took a few more gulps.
"This... This can't be done! Old man, this wine is an old daughter Hong, a pot is two taels of silver, you have already drank five pots in a row, we can calculate the food money separately, and the wine money should be paid first. !"
The embarrassed look on the little Er's face was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks.
The old man looked at Xiao Er's expression, but helplessly put down the jug.
"Forget it! A certain family doesn't care about stingy people like you, and a mere 10 taels of silver can be given to you by a certain family, so why bother people?"
The old man stretched out his hand and touched it in his arms, but he couldn't find anything. He searched the whole body and found only three copper plates.
The scene was once in an embarrassing situation. Everyone around, with the mentality of watching the excitement, turned their attention to it, and the little Er was even more shocked.
From this point of view, this person is only afraid that he really came to eat Bawang's meal.
"Sir, you can't do this! If you don't have money, why do you have to order so much food and drink? What else do you have to say?"
Xiaoer spread his hands, his face was dissatisfied, but it was not easy to attack.
This is also the difference between the guys at Taoxiang Restaurant and other places. The service attitude is always the best. If you switch to other restaurants, I am afraid that they will do it a long time ago.
"He's helpless, I have to bother you to go to the government for a long time!"
Xiao Er shook his head and greeted him, and a lot of guys suddenly gathered around, reaching out to pull him, wanting to send him to the government.
The example of eating Bawang's meal is not common in Taoxianglou, but it is not uncommon. Over time, how to deal with this kind of trivial matter, it is no longer necessary to report to the shopkeeper, and the clerk in the hall can directly settle it.
The rest of the guests were not surprised, but they sighed a little bit. They dared to eat the Overlord's meal in the Taoxiang Lou.
This old man does not know whether to live or die, and he is afraid that he will have bad luck.
However, the next scene surprised everyone.
Three or five strong men rushed up and tried to pull the old man up, but they tried their best to even use the strength to suckle, but the old man remained motionless, like a green pines.
The old man fanned a banana fan, and several guys fell out together.
"Ha ha ha ha… "
Looking at the scene in front of him, the old man laughed like a urchin. After a while, he got up from the chair and walked towards them.
"You children are too rude. You have to deal with an old man like me. This time, I will teach you a lesson and let you remember it for a long time."
The old man stroked his beard, looked around, and glanced around.
"A certain family came to you for a drink. Although there was not enough money, they didn't say that they would eat and drink for free! This meal was treated to a guest, and a certain family did not need to pay for it at all, and the guest had already arrived."
The old man's remarks attracted the ridicule of many people, who all thought that this person was bluffing, in order to cover up the fact that he had no money.
"Oh? Then dare to ask the old gentleman, what is the name of the person who treats the guest? I don't know which high-ranking official present? Why don't you show up?"
When the little second fell on him, he got up at this moment, indignant.
In response to this, the old man was not in a hurry, always had a smile on his face, ignored others, recited two poems aloud, and then walked out the door.
I didn't see how he moved, but in the blink of an eye, the old man had already left the Tasty Incense Building. The few guys didn't have time to react and it was difficult to stop him. Only the old man's verses echoed in their ears, which seemed very clear.
