All along the way, Gu Ziyan felt his wrist getting numb and uncomfortable, but because Gu Mingyan was sitting beside him, he kept it a secret.
When he stepped into the restaurant, the second floor had already been reserved by the friends that Gu Ziyan had mentioned.
When he looked at the group of people in embroidered clothes in front of him, as well as the accessories that were obviously worth a lot of money on them, Gu Mingyan only felt that they were eye piercing.
Why was it that the thin layer of hair of the woman could contain so much gold and silver, while the golden threads on the man's sleeves … Isn't it heavy?
Gu Ziyan was used to it, after introducing her to everyone, he sat down.
The waitress had already started preparing the dishes for them. However, the girl by the side chuckled. "Today's main purpose is to introduce the young miss to us. Why don't we ask the young miss to order some dishes?"
"Sure."
It was what he wished for!
I don't want to eat any more of those flashy dishes. I want to eat delicious food!
Gu Mingyan's eyes all lit up, and a few young noble sons and mistresses brought the waiter over to report the name of the dishes.
After a while, he said, "You reported too many dishes, I can't remember. If you help me serve some of your signature dishes, a golden silkworm, a divine duck, two warm wines, and a pot of warm water without anything else, do you know?"
The waiter, on the other hand, had sharp eyes. Seeing the gazes of the young masters and young ladies, he revealed a troubled expression. "Eldest Miss, it's better to announce the dishes. If the dishes don't suit the young masters and young ladies …"
When ordering dishes, I will show them my prowess. The ancients would fight in the palace when they have nothing else to do, so they won't bully me.
However, Gu Mingyan shook her head. "Since the various young masters and young ladies have entrusted this matter to me, they will naturally listen to me. Little Sister Ziyan, why don't the young masters and young ladies tell me, will you listen to me?"
The young masters and young ladies were speechless when he asked them such a question.
Gu Ziyan frowned as she looked at her: "It's better for big sister to just directly say the name of the dish. If you don't know, why don't you let little sister take its place …"
What a beautiful white lotus. Just now, she had threatened him with cold words. Now that she had been poisoned, she gritted her teeth and did not send any. Furthermore, she had even disguised herself as a virtuous lady.
"Little Sister Ziyan, there's no need to be like this. Although I haven't been born in the Shengan for a long time, I know that the Shengan is under the feet of the Son of Heaven, from the Prince of Officials to the beggars who beg along the streets, all of them know about this.
Gu Mingyan held onto a cup of green tea, his cold gaze sweeping across the crowd.
"Small... "That's not what I meant …" The waiter was already sweating profusely.
"Of course you don't have the guts, but I heard from Your Highness that there's someone controlling the many great undertakings of Shengan." The corner of Gu Mingyan's mouth raised into a faint smile, and his left hand pulled his right sleeve to drink the tea in one gulp, revealing only his warning eye: "I wonder who is behind this, to actually dare to show off even to someone the size of my Prime Minister's Mansion?"
The waiter felt his legs go soft, and he was almost forced to kneel on the ground by the high hat.
How could the other young masters and young ladies know that this country bumpkin girl was so aggressive and did not show any mercy?
Gu Ziyan still wanted to take this opportunity and find a way out, to teach Gu Mingyan a lesson.
However, Gu Mingyan had already revealed a smile on his face and placed the empty cup down.
"Don't just stand there. Repeat what I just said to your boss. He naturally knows what dishes to serve." With that, Gu Mingyan threw a silver ingot into his hand. Seeing that he was in a daze, he said: "When I entered the door just now, I saw that the beggar at the door was very pitiful, so please give this silver for me."
"This …" The waiter was stunned.
"Since you are not even comparable to a beggar, the silver is naturally not yours either."
Gu Mingyan retracted his gaze, and personally poured himself a cup of tea: "When seeing people eat dishes, you should also know, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, do you know?"
"Small... "Got it."
The waiter hurriedly took the silver.
The crowd became quiet for a moment, and Gu Mingyan had already drank his second cup of warm water. Seeing that no one was speaking, he quickly said a few words to disturb them, then went over to the table beside the window and sat down, and took out a book from his chest.
However, these books were not as straightforward as what she usually read. Instead, they had some dialect and she found them very interesting. So, she brought them with her and would occasionally take a look.
These people intended to humiliate her, so she refused to eat at the same table.
Those people only felt embarrassed. After that scolding just now, they did not know what to say.
Gu Ziyan had no choice but to apologize to them one by one.
Gu Mingyan had long since disappeared.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Gu Mingyan left this damned restaurant and walked onto the empty streets after the New Year.
There were already no vendors on the streets. Only big ideas and shops that wanted to earn money were open for business.
Gu Mingyan had originally wanted to make a trip to the Seventh Prince Palace to ask His Highness when she would return, if her cousin and her grandfather couldn't find her, it would be hard to find her.
Who knew that after just one street, he would see a familiar figure at a corner.
Why was he here?
He turned and followed along, but the person in front of him did not seem to have any intention of hiding his intentions, and brought over two jars of good wine from the wine shop with a big thorn. His thin clothes were still stained with snow, and looked more like he had rolled around in the snow, swaying every step he took, causing Gu Mingyan to scratch his heart and scratch his liver, but he did not dare step forward, and only secretly followed.
After following the crowd of people as they left the city, only the lush and verdant forest remained on both sides, yet Gu Mingyan was somewhat afraid.
She was unfamiliar with this place, and the outskirts of the city was completely empty. What would she do if she lost it?
"Ouch!"
The man in front of him cried out in shock, and Gu Mingyan quickly walked forward.
Initially, he thought that the old fellow had fallen half-dead. However, he saw that the old man had used his toes to hook onto the jar of wine that had fallen down, causing his eyes to become clear. He did not look like a drunkard, and only looked at Gu Mingyan with a smile that was not a smile.
"How long is that damn girl going to follow for?"
"If you didn't leave in secret, I wouldn't have followed you."
Gu Mingyan thought that it was all because of her kindness. He walked up and picked up the jar of wine, "Or maybe I'll go with you, but you can't just leave like that!"
Otherwise, Mr. Xu would have hidden you for nothing!
Xue Zhu rolled his eyes and raised his hand to pull at Gu Mingyan's hair.
"I don't want a bald head!" Let go, you old fogey! "
Xue Zhu only smiled, his gaze landed on the forest, after releasing Gu Mingyan's hair, he took her belt and brought her away.
