Upon hearing Hu Yue say so, they instantly began to laugh, especially Lee Yanyi. He said, “Hey, learn to be intelligent. Don’t you want to eat snacks in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant later?”
Nevertheless, Wu Hai seemed to have just woken up from his dream and instantly asked, “Snacks? Where are the snacks?”
What snacks? Zhou Shijie was made quite speechless by Wu Hai. Yet, in the next breath, he asked, “Haven’t you ever eaten snacks over there since you are there every day?”
“Snacks. When has Yuan Zhou ever served snacks in his restaurant?” Wu Hai asked back.
“Isn’t there any tea water in Boss Yuan’s restaurant?” On hearing that, Hu Yue asked suspiciously.
Wu Hai thought for a while and then said, “Yes, sure. An old man often goes to Boss Yuan’s restaurant to ask for tea water to drink.”
While the conversation was going on, they sat at their own positions and Zhou Shijie sat at the center.
“That’s why I say young people do not know how to behave now,” Zhang Yan said immediately when he heard Wu Hai say that there was tea water.
“According to our rules, only three dishes are to be tasted for the appraisal and therefore, he didn’t prepare the tea water. Didn’t he tell you about that?” Lee Yanyi said.
“That’s just why I said young people don’t understand the etiquette.” The reason why Zhang Yan insisted on that was, in his eyes, Yuan Zhou’s tea leaves were definitely top-notch since his food ingredients were also good. He was someone that could be considered to love drinking tea, so it wasn’t strange for him to get angry since he couldn’t drink good tea. If you were him, you would also become angry.
“You guys are not his customers. You don’t even pay for the meal and actually have so many requirements,” Wu Hai said obviously, “Is it necessary for him to arrange two girls to wait upon you?”
“Ahem ahem ahem.” Hu Yue almost spit out the tea water he had just drunk.
Why did this person comment on them as if they were here to eat and drink without paying?
“Boss Yuan has a nickname of Compass. The rules are laid down by yourself, so is it really strange to not prepare that?” Wu Hai continued saying.
“The tea water today is good.” Zhou Shijie sipped some tea water and tried to change the subject.
“Yeah. The tea water and snacks were both sweet and salty. Good taste.” Hu Yue nodded his head and chimed in with him.
“Little Mustache, speak less.” Lee Yanyi glared at him, “Though you are telling the truth, how embarrassing it is to speak now.”
“What a sharp-tongued old man!” Wu Hai thought of Yu Chu’s instructions and instantly shut his mouth.
Lee Yanyi stroked his beard proudly when he found that he himself managed to stop a dispute. However, he didn’t realize that it would be more embarrassing for Zhang Yan.
The butch-haircut assistant, who was filming the scene, also let out a sigh of relief. After all, the filming was still on-going. It was inappropriate to record them quarreling. Luckily, Zhou Shijie stopped them from quarreling on.
After they chatted about the tea and snacks for a while, the first dish was served. It was the broth, Rose Jade Stewed With Peach Blossoms.
Actually, the several people all felt very fortunate. It was good that the dish was finally served. They were bored with tea water.
“Aren’t the snacks for whetting the appetite? Why do I feel a little full?” Zhang Yan knitted his brows and said inwardly.
“It seems to be better not to prepare snacks. I’m a little fed up with the taste.” While thinking so, Hu Yue drank a mouthful of the plain boiled water again to rinse the mouth.
Each of them was served with a small bowl of Rose Jade Stewed With Peach Blossoms. The fingernail-sized peach blossom petals were floating on the surface of the broth. They could even faintly see the jade white fish meat. The dark green vegetables that scattered on the surface of the broth were as lively as the water grass in the water.
This was an appetizer.
They all took the bowl up and began to taste it, but for quite a while, none of them said anything.
“The concentration of the broth is just right and it does not taste bad.” Seeing nobody speak, Hu Yue suppressed the slight dissatisfaction in his heart and complimented it in this regard.
“The sweetness and saltiness are not bad.” Zhang Yan frowned.
Why is it inferior to the one served yesterday or even the one the day before yesterday so much? Zhi Yuan is lowering the quality of its dishes. Zhang Yan thought about that discontentedly.
