Chapter 183 The Zhou Family’s Foolish Boy Makes Trouble
The young master of the Zhou family, who was known by the world as the "First of the Four Killers", brought his gang of cronies known as the "Four Killers of the Capital" and rushed into the store in a mighty manner, like a group of monsters that had traveled through time and space from Journey to the West.
At this time, Liu Yaoyao was upstairs, like an elegant fairy, using tea instead of wine to cast a spell of thanks to all the uncles, thanking them for their visit and support today, as if the whole store was shining because of her.
The young master of the Zhou family, this well-known "big fool" in the capital, has a status so high that it is astonishing.
His aunt is the current queen, his grandfather is the emperor's tutor, and his father is the Minister of Rites.
It can be said to be an honor.
But in the next generation, there appeared such an outlier as him.
It is said that he could compose poems at the age of three, but later he became a fool due to an illness and was bullied by everyone.
He was only fifteen years old, and his only close friends were three people who had been with him for a long time.
Chen Zile, the son of the Cabinet Secretary, is a "Wenquxing" who seems smart but actually often makes fools.
Zhu Ming, the son of the Chief Clerk of the Zhanshi Palace, is a "smiling tiger" who always smiles but always messes things up.
There is also Jing Libing, the Secretary of the Guanglu Temple, a taciturn person who always does things that make people laugh and cry.
On the surface, the four of them came together because they shared the same suffering, but in reality, the three sons of seventh-rank officials were trying to curry favor with Zhou Sha Shao, getting free food and drinks and pretending to be cool.
The four of them, plus a group of attendants, were like the pilgrims in Journey to the West, and they broke into the palace.
Their eyes were like a group of hungry wolves searching for prey, sharp and cunning, sweeping over every guest present, and finally locking onto Mei Gongming who was busy as accurately as a searchlight.
Mei Gongming is very busy at the moment.
While he was warmly receiving another group of arriving officials, he also had to take care of various affairs in the store.
His face was filled with a friendly smile, as if every guest was his relative or friend.
"Hey, isn't this our shopkeeper Mei?"
Zhu Ming came forward with a joking look on his face and interrupted the conversation between Mei Gongming and the guest.
"It seems that Shopkeeper Mei's business is really booming. Even these high-ranking officials have come to show their support in person."
Mei Gongming smiled slightly, but there was a hint of impatience in his eyes. He turned around and spoke slowly.
"Mr. Zhu, you are joking. How can my small shop compare to your big business? It is just a small business to make a living."
"To make a living?"
Zhu Ming said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Mei, you are being modest. Everyone knows that your shop has been packed with customers since it opened. Brother Chen couldn't help but recite a poem to praise it."
He said this and looked at Chen Zile.
Chen Zile was suddenly inspired and echoed loudly: "Diners are coming in droves, and the delicious food is making our mouths water. The night is long with singing and laughter, and I still have warm dreams when I lie down drunk here."
Zhu Ming clapped his hands and laughed: "Good poem! Good poem! Brother Chen is indeed talented. Shopkeeper Mei, you see there are so many diners here, can't you make room for us brothers?"
Mei Gongming frowned slightly but still kept smiling.
"Gentlemen, we are fully booked today and cannot accommodate you any more. Why don't you come earlier tomorrow and I will personally arrange the best seats for you."
"Full house? Hahaha." Zhu Ming laughed out loud, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Mei Gongming, Mei Gongming, you are a nobody, but now you have learned to act pretentiously? Aren't you just a restaurant owner? Do you really think you are a big shot?"
Mei Gongming was annoyed, but he still kept a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhu, you are too kind. It's just that it is really inconvenient today, please forgive me."
"Haihan? I think you don't give us face!"
Zhu Ming suddenly stopped smiling and his face darkened. "Don't think that just because you have become the shopkeeper, you can act so arrogantly in front of us. Let me tell you, in this capital, our Zhou family has the final say!"
Zhu Ming pushed Zhou Ting, the idiot boy of the Zhou family, in front of the crowd.
They say stupid people are lucky.
This legendary silly young man really lived up to his reputation and interpreted the word "Fu" to the fullest.
His chubby body looked like a moving vault, with glittering gold ornaments hanging all over his body, as if he was wearing all the Zhou family's wealth on his body.
As soon as Zhou Ting appeared on the stage, he had his signature giggle and kept mumbling, "Food, food, I want to eat food."
Mei Gongming had such a headache that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.
He had dealt with this fool many times before and knew that the power behind him should not be underestimated.
Zhou Ting's father and brothers relied on their official power to bully others in the city. Anyone who dared to bully Zhou Ting would be like stirring up a hornet's nest.
Not only that, this family also has a bad habit, which is protecting their own children.
Although Zhou Ting was stupid, every time he went home to cry, his family members would come to his house without asking any questions, causing chaos in the family.
Mei Gongming sighed, forced a wry smile, and prepared to use his "magic skill of coaxing people".
At this moment, Jing Libing, who had been unknown and had a weak presence, suddenly screamed as if he was struck by lightning.
"Ah! Why is there a bug in this dish?!"
His voice was sharp and terrified, as if something terrible had happened.
The entire restaurant fell silent in an instant, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Jing Libing and his dish.
Sure enough, there was a small green insect lying on the leaf on the plate, basking in the sun leisurely.
The corner of Mei Gongming's mouth twitched.
This Jing Libing is usually silent, but when he opens his mouth he drops a bombshell!
He quickly stepped forward and explained with an embarrassed look on his face: "Sir, I'm so sorry. Please wait a moment, I will change a new plate for you right away."
However, Jing Libing seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and refused to give up.
"Change to another plate? How can this be possible! How can your restaurant be so unhygienic? If I eat this bug, won't I die?"
Mei Gongming smiled bitterly in his heart, this Jing Libing was indeed up to no good.
Alas, it's all his fault. I knew this guy's character clearly, so why didn't I be more careful?
Mei Gongming looked at the dish calmly and said, "To express my apology, I will give you a free meal. What do you think?"
When Jing Libing heard that the meal was free, his eyes lit up immediately, but he still refused to agree.
"Free of charge? Oh, how are you going to pay for your mental damages? And how come you are so easily frightened, my little darling? Our restaurant will be responsible for you to the end!"
The diner who originally thought he could get a free meal, when he heard about the mental damage compensation, his eyes immediately lit up like light bulbs and he stared straight at Mei Gongming, as if he saw the glittering gold coins waving at him.
This is simply asking for more!
Then I won’t tolerate it.
Mei Gongming cleared his throat and picked up the plate of food.
"Dear guests, please look, this bug is still alive and kicking! It is simply unbelievable that it can be so lively after being put into the frying pan! It is obvious that this bug was just caught outside. It wants to cheat in our restaurant, but there is no way!"
The case was solved.
When everyone looked, they saw that it was indeed the case. The bugs were really crawling around on the vegetables, looking very uncomfortable.
The diner's face turned red all of a sudden, and he stammered and couldn't speak.
Want a new one? Want it for free? Want more compensation?
There are no doors!
Mei Gongming turned the conversation to Zhou Ting again, actually to Zhu Ming.
"Mr. Zhou, I heard that you like the braised pork elbow at Ruyi Tower. Why don't you try it today and come back to our place in the evening to compare. What do you think?"
"Okay, eat the braised pork elbow, eat the braised pork elbow." Zhou Ting laughed and went out.
Zhu Ming knew exactly how the bugs got into the dish, but he was too embarrassed to continue making a fuss, so he snorted coldly and stuck to Zhou Ting.
Chen Zile and Jing Libing also followed him out the door.
On the second floor, Prince Zhennan, who heard the noise, happened to watch the whole scene.
He said to the Guanglu Temple official cheerfully: "You have raised a good son."
