Chapter 229 "Being able to eat is a blessing"
This was the first time that Gu Qingyun had the idea of resigning from his official position. He was the second young master of the family and was supposed to stay at home, doing nothing and being a playboy.
Why did he choose to come to the Dali Temple to suffer? Not to mention the suffering, now that his official position is getting higher and higher, he even has to rely on human relationships and worldly wisdom to investigate cases.
When I was just a minor clerk, I had to investigate whatever the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple asked me to investigate and all I had to do was cooperate.
Just like Zhao Huaiqing and others now, he is much more relaxed.
But now?
I became the Junior Official of Dali Temple, but I found that many things were not possible just because I wanted to do them. I used to wonder why Junior Official of Dali Temple was always timid, but now I understand.
Besides, the emperor has said that he will personally have the boy who committed the crime brought to the palace to be a eunuch. Although the punishment is a bit lenient, it is a punishment after all and does not disregard the lives of ordinary people.
Gu Qingyun walked out helplessly. The palace walls were high, so weren’t they all like birds that couldn’t fly out?
……
Inside a Kyoto restaurant, Shen Ran sat in a corner listening to today's storytelling.
He hasn't been here for a long time because of the plague.
Xu Banshan hadn't told jokes for a long time, and the jokes he had accumulated for two months made many diners linger.
"Mr. Banshan has made progress again."
"Who said it wasn't? I thought it was a good show, but I didn't expect that he was unwilling to inherit the title of Gucheng Mountain Man."
"What's the Guchengshanren? He is the most powerful one now."
"The old Guchengshanren is gone, and the new one is definitely not as good as him."
"Hey, what are we talking about again? Aren't we talking about how good his jokes are?"
There are different gossips and news in this restaurant every day. Everyone is used to it and talks about the east restaurant now and then.
Shen Ran found it particularly interesting. At home, he was faced with books and journals every day, but it was different in the restaurant. Life in the restaurant was particularly exciting.
At this time, Gu Qingyun also slowly walked to the door of Kyoto Restaurant. He always thought that he might as well resign from his official position and stay in this restaurant to eat and drink. There was nothing wrong with being a playboy.
As soon as Shen Ran entered the room, he saw him, "Si Yu."
Gu Qingyun heard it and walked in, "Why do you have time to come to Kyoto Restaurant today?"
"This should be the question I ask you." Shen Ran said lightly, the teacup in his hand kept turning.
"Of course it's because I want to be the same as you." Gu Qingyun sat aside, looking at the restaurant which was still busy today.
“Autumnal Equinox!”
Qiufen, who had just rested for a while standing aside, was frightened. When he saw that it was Gu Qingyun, he felt his eyes go dark.
They are already very busy, and these two can still eat a lot.
"What would you like to eat, sir?" Qiufen ran over hurriedly.
Gu Qingyun said, "Bring me a portion of everything I haven't eaten yet."
Autumnal Equinox…
"Sir...what haven't you eaten?"
"I see what you are holding on the wooden plate? And what was originally in the iron plate in front of Shen Ran?" Gu Qingyun lay down with a big smile.
At this moment, he no longer wanted to care about Guojia Village or Lijia Village. He only thought about when and how to resign...
"This is a hidden item. Customers can use the stamps they left behind to buy it at a 30% discount. If you don't have enough stamps, you can also top up." Qiufen said in a formatted manner.
"Of course, I want three servings. I remember I have a lot of stamps." Gu Qingyun said without hesitation, opened the menu and started to choose again, "I've never eaten this before. What is crispy pork feet? Why are there new duck products?"
Autumnal Equinox…
"Sir, this may be a bit too much for two people. This hidden food is quite filling. How about you order more depending on the situation?" Qiufen felt that he was being very tactful. If it were in the past, he would have directly stopped the words on the counter.
But Gu Qingyun was determined to eat a lot today, so he waved his hand and said, "I can finish it, I will never waste it, bring it all in."
Qiu Feng had no choice but to fill out the list as required.
When the order was sent back to the kitchen, everyone was shocked. "How many people are eating this? It's for a whole family. So much meat."
"This was ordered by Mr. Gu alone." Qiu Feng said, almost gritting his teeth.
"Gu Qingyun? Eating so much by himself... three steaks, that's crazy." An Qiao thought of Gu Qingyun's decadent look last night.
"She didn't listen to me, saying she could finish it all." Qiufen couldn't help but say, if she could finish it, wouldn't that be considered overeating? She must be sent to the hospital tonight.
An Qiao curled her lips and said, "Lixia, you watch the pot. I'm going to go out for a while."
Lixia nodded, and An Qiao went out wearing an apron. She had a smile on her face, and the diners passing by greeted her frequently.
For a long time, An Qiao just sat at the counter and did nothing to do, just helping to take orders or even just answering questions, so many diners were deeply impressed by her.
I haven’t seen her in the last few days and I’m still a little uncomfortable. It turns out she is just “addicted” to the kitchen.
"Sir Shaoqing, what gust of wind blew you to the restaurant so early in the morning today?" An Qiao held the menu in her hand and spoke in a gentle tone, as if she was really just asking.
But Gu Qingyun could hear the sarcasm in his voice, "Young lady, you have been very dissatisfied with me recently. You are so sarcastic and mean to me."
Shen Ran unconsciously shrank into a ball. He couldn’t see me, couldn’t see me, couldn’t see me.
Why do these two have such a good understanding of each other, and seem to be showing off their affection every day without getting married! Every time, it is Shen Ran who is hurt!
"No, I just came to remind you, Lord Shaoqing, that it's not good to eat so much in the morning." An Qiao said with a smile and even bowed to Gu Qingyun.
"I'm not planning on leaving today. I'm going to eat in the restaurant for a day. Since it's just a one-day meal, this amount of food isn't too much." Gu Qingyun didn't care at all.
An Qiao narrowed her eyes. Why is this person so strange today?
Why did it seem like the aura of a homeless person suddenly came over Gu Qingyun?
When Gu Qingyun saw An Qiao narrowing her eyes, he knew that she was up to no good. "Don't think too much. I'm just here to eat."
"Then let's serve fewer dishes. I'll serve you more after you finish eating. Is this okay?" An Qiao was really afraid that you would die of overeating in the Kyoto restaurant today.
Gu Qingyun nodded, "That's fine, I'll order more after I finish eating."
He looked like he was going to eat up all the food in Kyoto Restaurant. An Qiao shook her head, but the restaurant was extremely busy at the moment and she didn't have time to think about what was wrong with him.
Being able to eat is a blessing, being able to eat is a blessing.
An Qiao could only comfort herself in this way and returned to the kitchen.
