Xiao Yueji, the name doesn’t sound very grand. In fact, it is a three-story restaurant modeled after the Yueyang Tower.

This building is built at the south gate of the city, close to the inland river of the city. Climbing up this building, you can not only see the people's livelihood in the city, but also overlook the scenery outside the city.

Although it does not carry distant mountains or swallow up the Yangtze River, it is so vast and boundless. But in this early spring, there is also the artistic conception of three-pointed golden scales swimming, and the shore of Zhi Ting orchid.

In Xiao Yue Ji, the first floor has scattered seats, mostly filled with idlers drinking tea, listening to books, playing chess and chatting. It was really full of people and excitement;

On the second floor, screens and flowers and trees are used to separate compartments, where most friends gather. Those compartments can be disassembled or closed, so there is a suitable place for no matter how many people there are. Apart from being drunk and yelling a few words, this is also a good place to drink and chat;

The third floor is the cloister private room. In order to prevent the partition walls from having ears, there is a gap of more than one person between every two private rooms. Some porcelain antiques may be placed inside, some green plants and flowers may be planted, and some birds may be hung in some places. In addition to the sounds of birds here, even if someone walks in the corridor, they will unconsciously step softly.

Xiaoyueji is a unique sight in Huicheng. Those who come from north to south seem to have come here in vain if they don't have a meal here.

Yan Sinian also planned to follow the local customs and took Xiaoba directly to Xiaoyueji.

As soon as Yan Sinian and the others walked into Xiao Yue Ji, a waiter came to greet them.

Because he saw a female family member, the waiter said hello directly and called out, "We are distinguished guests upstairs."

Yan Sinian was about to go upstairs with Xiaoba. At this time, Feng Xuan asked for instructions: "Master, I will have a bite downstairs. If you need anything, please say hello."

Feng Xuan didn't intend to disturb His Highness and their solitude.

He still has some good eyesight.

Yan Sinian nodded. Then he and Xiaoba went to the third floor.

Under the guidance of the waiter, the two came to a private room facing the sun. The room was very elegant and clean. When they opened the window, the entire South City Gate was in front of them.

The waiter was smiling all over his face, and while wiping the table, he asked, "What do you want, young lady? We have a local delicacy here, and we can make all the ordinary dishes."

"What's the signature dish of your restaurant?" Xiaoba was the one who asked. She and Baozi learned this. When arriving at a place, you should first ask for the signature dish, which is usually something you can't eat elsewhere.

These days, who would dare to open a restaurant without having a few secret recipes?

The young man dared to look up when he heard Xiaoba's voice. This time, his mouth watered down. This young lady was so pretty.

He swallowed deeply the secreted saliva.

The waiter replied: "As for this signature dish, the most famous one in Huicheng is braised pork. Don't look at the braised pork shops everywhere on the street, but the taste is different. And our Xiaoyue Ji Braised pork, I’m not bragging, that’s this..."

As he spoke, he shook his thumb at Yan Sinian and Xiao Ba.

"If you two guests have no objections, I'll give you our Xiao Yue Ji's braised pork platter first."

Yan Sinian nodded.

"As for the rest, serve all the dishes that can be made in your store now!"

"What?" The boy who was pouring tea almost poured the water on the table.

"This young master, I'm not bragging, there are twelve chefs by name in our Xiaoyueji kitchen. Each of them was hired by our boss with a lot of money. Who doesn't have two or three dishes in his hands? The dishes at the bottom of the box.”

"These are all the specialty dishes. I don't care whether you want to eat it or not. The table can't even be set!"

Xiaoba's eyes lit up when he heard there was such a dish.

And Yan Sinian would never argue with a waiter. He just took out a purse from his waist, took out a roll of banknotes, looked at it, picked one out, and handed it to the clerk.

"Can you handle this?"

When the clerk looked at it, he saw a silver note of two hundred taels.

He took the lead and nodded to Yan Sinian: "It's easy to put it down, it's easy to put it down. You can book the store with these two hundred taels. You can still cover it for two days."

Yan Sinian didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he took out another banknote with a face value of ten taels and threw it to the clerk.

The guy looked at it but didn't dare to move. He had an idea in his mind, but he couldn't believe it.

"As a reward, tell them to serve the food quickly."

Hearing that the young man said it was a reward for himself, the man almost knelt down and kowtowed. You must know that you only earn three taels of silver a month. It would take you four or five years to save these 1 taels without eating or drinking.

The boy ran downstairs, leaving only Yan Sinian and Xiaoba in the room.

Xiao Ba frowned suddenly when he looked at Yan Sinian.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable in there?" Xiaoba ate and drank all day long, and Yan Sinian was really worried about her little belly.

Xiaoba shook his head, looked at Yan Sinian and said, "I seem to have forgotten something? Do you know?"

"What happened? Did you forget to eat the morning meal?"

"How is that possible? Today's breakfast is small wontons. I ate three bowls of them! Such big bowls."

While talking, Xiaoba also compared the size of the bowl to Yan Sinian.
