Traveling through the Eighth Five-Year Plan: Starting from selling fruit at a stall

Chapter 28

The waiter seemed very unhappy, but still said patiently: "Everyone, try to be quiet and don't disturb other comrades' meals."

Only then did Ling Yue and his party quietly find a place to sit down.

There are eight adults and five children. In the era when big round tables were not yet popular, so many people could not sit at one table.

Ling Yue said hesitantly: "Why don't we open two tables, so many people can't sit down."

Jiang Congxiang quickly grabbed her and said, "Let's just sit at one table. Everyone is crowded. There is no need to open two tables for adding a few stools."

"Let's open two tables." Wang Zhaoyang said, "With so many people, if one person puts a rice bowl on the table, there will be no room for other things."

The table is the Eight Immortals table. When the adults are seated, the children can only squeeze the corners of the table, and the tableware is indeed a bit crowded.

After Wang Zhaoyang spoke, Ling Yue was not a petty person, so he nodded to Huang Guixiang and said, "Then let's open two tables. Their gays have some wine, and we will have some too."

Huang Guixiang looked at her unexpectedly, and teased: "As far as the amount you pour in a cup, can you beat us?"

"Do you want to order?" The waiter lost his patience and said with a dark face: "We are very busy and don't have time to chat with you here."

Ling Yue quickly apologized, and discussed with a few people. Each table ordered a stewed three-yellow chicken in oil, stewed pig's trotters with soybeans, kelp bone soup, fried pork, braised fish in brown sauce, and fried celery.

The chicken, fish, and meat are all complete, and I also ordered a stir-fried seasonal vegetable to relieve the greasy.

The waiter quickly wrote it down and asked, "Do you want cold dishes and drinks?"

"What are the cold dishes?"

"Peanuts, cucumbers, tomatoes in sugar, and pickles, twenty-five cents each."

Ling Yue said briskly, "Then let each table have a plate of these four cold dishes."

The waiter hummed, "Okay, I've made a note, do you want a drink?"

Ling Yue asked the four men present: "Do you drink?"

Huang Guixiang said quickly: "Okay, Xiaoyue, don't waste money, you have ordered so many dishes, how can we finish them?"

"If you can't finish eating, pack it up and take it back." Ling Yue said with a smile, "It's hard for you to kill me, how can I not make you happy."

Huang Guixiang gave her a blank look, and said with a smile: "Look at this woman, she really refuses to take any losses. I just said that she was partial in the afternoon, and she remembered it now."

Ling Yue did her part to reply: "As long as you are willing, I can remember it longer."

In a word, everyone was amused.

The waiter asked again: "Do you want drinks? If not, I'll place an order and you can pay the bill."

"Yes, bring me two bottles of better wine."

This woman spoke again, but the waiter didn't look up: "Our best wine is Maotai with Maotai flavor. It costs [-] yuan a bottle. How many bottles do you want?"

Hearing the quotation, Jiang Congxiang was startled: "Xiaoyue, this is too expensive, don't order it."

Huang Guixiang was already on good terms with her, and she wasn't afraid to offend her, so she said to Ling Yue, "Xiaoyue, your sister Jiang is a wild boar who can't eat the chaff, and the wine worth eight yuan should hurt her a lot, she has to drink it." , come to two bottles of about one yuan, just to satisfy your hunger."

"Fenjiu, one yuan a bottle, if you want it, I'll place an order for you."

Ling Yue and Wang Zhaoyang didn't drink alcohol, and they didn't know much about alcohol, so they turned their eyes to Ji Xiaonian for help.

Ji Xiaonian said: "I heard that this Fenjiu has a pure fragrance and a long aftertaste, so we will drink from this bar."

"Okay." Ling Yue said to the waiter: "Comrade, give us two more bottles of Fenjiu, how much is the total?"

After finishing the calculation, the waiter quickly said, "Two tables of the same dishes cost 48 yuan in total. Pay first, this is the rule."

Ling Yue handed over five great unity on the spot.

The waiter gave her a surprise look.

It can be said that Ling Yue was the most sloppily dressed among all the people present.

Although the clothes on his body were clean, they looked like they had been worn for several years, and the shoes on his feet were made of the cheapest plastic sandals.

But it was such a woman who took out five cards of Great Unity without blinking her eyes. She really didn't expect it.

The waiter took the money, said "wait a moment", turned around and went to the cashier.

After a while, she put four cold dishes on the tray, and gave Ling Yue another two dollars.

Everyone waited for another half an hour, and finally the first dish was served, fried pork.

As soon as the stir-fried pork was served, the children's eyes immediately widened. If it wasn't for an adult pressing down on them, they would have grabbed it long ago.

Looking at the eager eyes of the children, Huang Guixiang asked the waiter, "Comrade, where is the meal? The children are all hungry."

"Wait."

The waiter's cold attitude really made Ling Yue feel uncomfortable.

If this attitude was in later generations, she would have slammed the table and left.

But today is different.

There is a system for this job. Although she is a little impatient, she still listens patiently and listens to herself for so long, which is considered more polite.

After the first dish was served, the other dishes were served one after another within a short wait.

As soon as the dishes were served, although the children slurped all over the floor, they still behaved quite well, sitting on the table obediently, watching the dishes and swallowing.

When everyone moved their chopsticks, the children began to show off their meat crazily.

Originally, she thought that if she couldn't finish eating, she would pack it up and take it home, but Ling Yue miscalculated.

These days, everyone doesn't have a lot of oil in their stomachs. After finally coming out to have a big meal, everyone opens their stomachs and works hard.

Seeing the children eating happily, Jiang Congxiang couldn't help saying: "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Then he said to Ling Yue with a smirk, "I made you laugh, the children are too ignorant."

"It's okay." Ling Yue didn't blame them, "I've got an appetite seeing them eating happily."

"That's not right." Huang Guixiang got to know her well, and she didn't treat her as an outsider at all. She picked up a chopstick of fried pork, "We ate a bowl of noodles at noon today, and Xiaoyue even went to replenish the goods temporarily. I'm really tired." Dead man."

"Business is like this." Jiang Congxiang said, "I'm not afraid of good business, but I'm afraid of bad business."

As Huang Guixiang said, she looked at Chen Zhaodi with piercing eyes, and began to gossip: "We really misjudged, someone robbed us of the site today, and Zhaodi, who usually doesn't look like a mountain, dared to do it."

Chen Zhaodi's hands shaking the vegetables, her face was embarrassed, "Sister Huang, can you not mention this, now that I think about it, I'm scared to death."

"Are you afraid that you still dare to do it?"

Chen Zhaodi said with a heavy heart: "Who told him to say that we are three women in one drama."

Ling Yue saw it, and quickly changed the subject: "Stop talking about this, come on, let's have a drink."

During the dinner, Ling Yue looked at Chen Zhaodi from time to time, full of curiosity about her.
