Only then did the accountant raise his head and smile, ”Yo, storekeeper, you're here.”

The young master dressed in silk spat at him, ”Get up, little monkey. How much money do you have to waste on me!? Are you an idiot if you don't want to earn money? ”

As he cursed his subordinates in a low voice, he smiled at Su Zhi in a flurry of movements.

”Speaking of which, young lady, since you're not a junior from the cold arts, why did you go to that place, Flowerwood Restaurant, where chickens don't lay eggs? If you come to our 'Lover of a Hundred Flavors', then I promise you will have no regrets.”

The man waved his fan as he stared at the girl in front of him.

Su Zhi pursed her lips, feeling that the person was looking at her as if he were looking at a rich god. She carefully waved her hand and said, ”No need, I'm very afraid that I'm very afraid of growing up. I still prefer a quiet place.

With these words, she hurriedly turned around and left, afraid that she would be tricked by this shrewd young man in front of her.

To be honest, she also wanted to live and eat better, but she only had a few dollars in her pocket, so she had to make long-term plans.

When Su Zhi returned to Flowerflower Restaurant, she remembered the scene at the back of the kitchen and felt goosebumps all over her skin.

The young scholar didn't seem to mind at all as he continued to recite the Four Books and Five Classics, as if he didn't know his hunger.

The dishes were delivered very quickly. The price was one tael of silver, but there was only a plate of plain stir-fried potatoes with shredded potatoes, a plate of fragrant eggplant minced meat, a plate of steamed vegetables with no ingredients and a big bowl of vegetable soup.

Looking at the ingredients, the shop owner with a hundred flavors and a happy expression must have cheated her, but judging from the looks of it, it was indeed enough to arouse a person's appetite. Su Zhi hurriedly ordered her two children to eat together with her.

At this time, the beautiful scholar from the inner courtyard came out while smelling the fragrance.

”It smells so good. The little lady is calling it a 'hundred flavors of Clear Joyous'.”

Su Zhi nodded in agreement as she served the food for the two children.

Seeing that the scholar had no intention of leaving, Su Zhi felt a little embarrassed.

”Manager, if you don't mind, come and eat with us.”

The scholar sat down across from him and started to fill the bowl with rice.

”Call me Brother Li. My family name is Li and my family name is Li.”

While Su was feeding Ah Jin, she also fed the small bean bun. When she heard his big name, she could only nod slightly.

”Young lady, you are not from Xuan City right? I heard you said that you are here to look for relatives. I'm not good at anything else, but I'm familiar with Xuancheng and might be able to help. ”

Li Yi picked up a pair of chopsticks to stir-fry the potatoes and said disdainfully: ”If you want me to say that the hundred flavors of Clear Joy is a scam, then isn't it just ordinary potatoes with a little red pepper?” You have to call it Golden Silk Red Jade, it's so expensive. ”

However, the taste was really good. The cooking skills of a chef were indeed not bad.

Su Zhi said carelessly, ”No need to trouble Brother Li.”

”How is this trouble? A woman like you dragging two children while you're out, how inconvenient.”

Without waiting for Su Zhi to refuse, he continued, ”I saw that you weren't very old. I didn't expect you to already be the mother of two children.”

Li Yi giggled and stared at A Jin and Little Dou curiously, as if he didn't believe them.

Su Zhi did not explain any further, but he still pursued her relentlessly. She changed the topic, ”Big Brother Li's shop must have been passed down by our ancestors, right? From the looks of this place, it must be filled with guests. How did it end up in such a desolate place? ”

Saying that, Li Yi lost his cool, slapping the bowl of food and said faintly: ”Speaking of it, my ancestors were rich and powerful, but my grandfather was not a good person to start a business, and his family situation has worsened. In my father's generation, Liang Tian's stores had been sold, leaving only this' Flowerful House '. Before his death, father had told me that no matter how difficult the days were, I must not sell this ancestral restaurant. ”

”I don't know much about business. I like reading books and I don't like the smell of money. Not long after my father died, the cook and the waiter left. No one wants to stay. ”

Hearing this, Su Zhi understood more or less what was going on. From the looks of it, this young scholar was not a poor family who lived like that, but she did not know how long he could last.

”Then did Brother Li take the Imperial examinations?” ”If you don't have a customer, how will you do business and earn a living?”

Li Yi scratched his head and laughed in an embarrassed manner. ”About this … I've been an Elementary Scholar before, but I'll surely pass the Imperial examinations next year.”
