Chapter 44 Twelve dishes
Chu Huan's brows were slightly tight, but when he heard this, he also vaguely understood that the two people who had a dispute next door were obviously not good things. He naturally knew that Balitang had just had a deal, and that Fan Yi and the second young master Fan seemed not a good person. He thought he was just a squandering playboy.
Hearing a "clang" sound, there was a heavy sound of closing the door next door, and then Fan Yi-chan cursed there: "A group of gangsters are also scattering on my head..." But the sound of this was really not very confident.
Suddenly, when he heard a knock on the door outside, Master Li was shocked and said to Chu Huan in a low voice: "I'm afraid Master Han is here!" He stood up tremblingly. Chu Huan went forward and opened the door very quickly. Then he saw a shop clerk standing outside the door. Next to the shop clerk, there was an old man in his fifties, wearing a cotton robe and a fur hat, and he looked like he had an extraordinary status.
Master Li smiled and stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master, I have prepared a little wine, thank you for your appreciation!"
The old man was indeed Han Yuan, the master of Shengquan.
Han Yuan looked kind-hearted and smiling, and came in the door, bowed with a smile, "Master Li is so polite. Such a small matter is a simple task, why should I do this? Han came to the appointment with a shameless face, I am so ashamed!" He looked at Chu Huan again, and saw the young man's spirit, and asked with a smile: "Is this Mr. Li's nephew?"
"That's right!" Master Li hurriedly said, "Erlang, haven't you seen Master Han yet!"
Chu Huan bowed and said, "My younger generation Chu Huan, I have met the master master!"
Han Yuan waved his hand and said, "What a master, I am so ashamed. Just call me Uncle Han!"
Master Li had already pulled Han Yuan over and cooked it, summoned the shop staff to come over and asked Han Yuan to order dishes. Han Yuan refused, Master Li ordered a few dishes himself. Han Yuan was also a honest person. Master Li only ordered three or four dishes, so Han Yuan hurriedly stopped and refused to order any more. I guess he was worried that Master Li would spend too much money.
The shopkeeper stepped down. Chu Huan was about to close the door, but saw a young man in brocade clothes walking by the door. The young man looked twenty-three or four years old, wearing a purple warm robe and a blue belt, and he could tell at a glance that he was the young man from a wealthy family with a gloomy expression. When he walked past the door, the young man looked into the house by a devil. First, he saw Chu Huan, and he looked disdainful and snorted coldly. Just as he was about to walk past the door, he glanced at Han Yuan in the room from the corner of his eyes.
When the young master saw Han Yuan, he suddenly stopped, with a strange smile on his face. He took two steps back and was about to enter the room. However, Chu Huan stood in front of the door and said lightly: "Go out!"
The young man was stunned. Obviously, he could not have imagined that a rural young man in the country would dare to talk to him like this. His face darkened. He reached out and pushed him towards Chu Huan's chest, saying coldly: "What are you? How dare you talk to me like this..." He reached out to push him, but Chu Huan flashed lightly. The noble man pushed him in a flash, and was so angry that he saw that Han Yuan had already stood up to greet him, and bowed with a smile: "Isn't this the second young master? But I haven't seen the second young master for a few days!"
Chu Huan could already hear the voice of the young nobleman at this time. It was obviously Fan Yi-chan who had just quarreled with the fourth brother of the green face next door. Now it seems that he and Han Yuan are also a little familiar with him.
Fan Yixian glanced at Chu Huan and sneered, "Han Yuan, is this your person? He is very brave and dares to stop me from entering!" He called Han Yuan Daming, very frivolous.
Han Yuan seemed very humble and said with a smile: "Second Young Master, why not sit together with me with my face?"
Fan Yiyi glanced over his eyes, looked at Master Li, and then looked at Chu Huan. He seemed to understand something. A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He actually walked forward carelessly and sat down at the table. He said bluntly: "Even so, I will give you some face and sit here!"
Han Yuan was stunned. He was just polite in the scene. He thought that if Fan Yijie was more tactful, he would have left, but he didn't expect that this person was extremely thick-skinned and actually sat down.
Han Yuan looked at Master Li awkwardly, but saw Master Li smiled and said, "Since he is a master's friend, getting together is fate, so what's wrong with sitting down and drinking a few glasses of water and wine?"
Han Yuan smiled awkwardly and sat down at the table. Master Li had already ordered Chu Huan: "Erlang, go find the shop clerk to ask for a pair of bowls and chopsticks!"
Chu Huan seemed surprisingly calm. When he left, he quickly brought the bowls, chopsticks and teacups and placed them in front of Fan Yi-chan. Fan Yi-chan coughed and glanced at the teapot on the table. As if he had any advice, Han Yuan understood his meaning and got up and picked up the teapot to pour tea for Fan Yi-chan. Chu Huan hurriedly came forward to take it and actually poured a cup of tea for Fan Yi-chan himself.
Fan Yiyi was proud to see Chu Huan pouring tea for him. At this time, the atmosphere in the elegant room was very stiff. With Fan Yiyi present, it was inconvenient to say a lot.
After a moment of silence in the room, Han Yuan asked a little embarrassedly: "Is this good for the second young master?"
Fan Yiqian picked up the teacup and drank it, then put it down and said, "It's not as easy as you're free... Yes, Han Yuan, is the wine cellar in the workshop going to open the cellar these days, right?"
Han Yuan's face changed slightly, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he still smiled reluctantly: "The second young master also knows that opening a wine cellar is not something that we servants can do, and we have to obey the instructions of the boss!"
"Sister?" Fan Yi-chan laughed and said, "You are a master of the winery and have great skills. How can you call yourself a servant!"
"I dare not, don't dare!" Han Yuan hurriedly said, "I just work for the big boss. I have been with Shengquan for almost 30 years. My boss doesn't treat me at all, but when we do things for the boss, we still have to remember our duties!"
At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and the shopkeeper came in with a purple wood tray and said, "Several people, the wine and food are coming!" He placed four dishes and a pot of wine on the table and was about to retreat.
Fan Yiyi glanced at him and immediately shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The shop clerk hurriedly bent and asked, "What are the instructions for the second young master?" Fan Yi-chan was obviously a regular customer of this restaurant, and the shop clerk was very familiar with him.
Fan Yi-chan raised his hand and pointed at the dishes on the table, saying shamelessly: "What are these things? Is it eaten by humans? Today, the Japanese master and Master Han are drinking here. You serve these dishes, but you deliberately ridiculed me?" He glanced at Master Li as if he was sneering, and sneered: "I have some appetite, but when I see these dishes feeding pigs, I have no appetite, and I feel disappointed!"
As soon as he said this, Master Li and Han Yuan suddenly changed their color.
Fan Yi-chan is a veteran in the restaurant. He saw the scene today and instantly understood the reason. He concluded that someone asked Han Yuan to do something, so he treated her to dinner here.
He knew very well that the gentle old man with a robe and the rustic country boy must be together, and that most of the money for this meal was paid for by these two people.
He had already drunk a lot of wine next door just now, and had a dispute with the green-faced old man, and was very depressed and angry. At this time, he seized this opportunity and wanted to relax.
Moreover, Chu Huan stopped him from entering, which made him feel very uncomfortable, so he wanted to take this opportunity to deal with the country bumpkin.
Although Master Li didn't have any good feelings for Fan Yi-chan, he couldn't break up because of Han Yuan's face. What's more, he was a scholar and looked at the face very seriously. He calmed down slightly and smiled reluctantly, "I'll make you laugh." He said again, "Young Master Fan wants to eat, just order it!"
After saying this, he couldn't help but touch the bag on his waist with one hand. The bag contained the silver he had saved on his body, not much.
Fan Yi-chan smiled and said to the shop clerk: "You should take these dishes first. Since you have entered this private room, it would be embarrassing if you can't eat them well!"
The shop guys knew Fan Yi-chan and knew that Fan Yi-chan was a generous lord. The better they ate, the more money the restaurant earned. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Second Master, what do you always want to eat?"
"Don't rush to serve the big dishes!" Fan Yi-chan touched his chin and said, "Let's do it now, let's first get four dried fruits, four fresh fruits, two salty and sour, and four candied fruits."
He said it lightly, but Master Li and Han Yuan changed their expressions. Chu Huan sat aside without saying a word, calm expression, and held a teacup to drink tea.
The shop clerk smiled and said, "What kind of fruit candied fruits do the second young master want?"
"The old rules are that the four kinds of dried fruits are lychees, longans, steamed dates, and ginkgo. What fresh fruits do you look at? Fresh fruits are fresh and come up... salty and sour, you need to make fragrant cherries and shredded ginger plums." Fan Yixuan knew it as a master of the guests: "Four kinds of candied fruits, let's have rose kumquats, fragrant grapes, frosted peach strips and peeled Mili meat."
The shop clerk smiled and said, "The second young master is an old expert. These honey fruits are in stock. They will be delivered to you immediately. I wonder what other big dishes the second young master wants to eat. Please give me some instructions first, so I can go and make some preparations!"
Fan Yixiang glanced at Master Li, whose face was a little pale and even had a little trembling body, and said proudly: "No need to add more. You can have a twelve dishes, according to the usual rules. By the way, you can get fresh leaves. If there is a trace of not fresh, don't blame me for turning against you!"
The shop clerk hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the second young master, please make sure that the duck that you are killing is taking the duck tongue..." He asked again, "What other snack does the second master want?"
Before Fan Yi-chan could speak, Han Yuan had already said, "Enough is enough, too much will be ruined." But he thought in his heart that Fan Yi-chan was kept by himself and did not want to cause such trouble.
However, he also knew that the dishes Fan Yi-chan ordered just now cost at least 40 taels of silver, especially the twelve dishes mentioned by Fan Yi-chan, which are a signature dish of Yi-chan. Each dish is meticulously crafted but expensive. If you want to eat fresh duck tongue, you have to kill twenty or thirty live ducks in full, which is extremely costly.
Han Yuan knew Master Li’s foundation and knew that even if Master Li searched all over his body, he would not cost more than ten taels of silver. He made up his mind, but he really couldn’t do it. This time he bleeded heavily and paid for the meal.
