Chapter 836: Gu Yundong Is Bankrupt?
Editor: Henyee Translations
When she reached the counter, she asked the two children, “Have you thought about what to eat and drink?”
“I want to drink milk tea and eat those fries,” Yunshu said quickly.
“I want double skin milk.” Yuanzhi had a special fondness for this. “And chicken nuggets.”
Gu Yundong looked at Eldest Aunt Gu again. The latter did not know how to read and did not know what delicious food there was. She was a little nervous. But with Gu Yundong by her side, she quickly calmed down.
“Just order. I don’t know what to drink.”
Gu Yundong thought for a moment and said to the girl, “Then give me another pot of osmanthus tea and a plate of osmanthus cake.”
She said to Eldest Aunt Gu, “Osmanthus tea is good for the stomach. During this season, the osmanthus flowers this year have been plucked and dried. The osmanthus flowers in New Tea Pavilion are all fresh.”
Gu Yundong said to the girl, “That’s all for now. We’ll order whatever we want later. We want a private room. The type that children like.”
When it was renovated, there were many types of private rooms. Gu Yundong did not know which one was still empty, so she could only ask the waiter.
The girl’s hand under the counter gently tugged, then nodded with a smile. “Alright, I’ll get someone to bring the guest to the private room.”
The girl first noted down what they had ordered. Then, she found another young round-faced girl and led them inside.
Before Gu Yundong left, she asked, “By the way, where’s Su Qing? I saw her yesterday when I came.”
“Su Qing happened to be resting today, so she didn’t come.”
Gu Yundong nodded and left.
As soon as she left, she disappeared behind the door.
The girl at the counter suddenly crumpled the paper in her hand into a ball and threw it on the ground. “What kind of person is she? She’s really shameless. She’s so annoying.”
Another slightly older girl happened to walk behind the counter. When she saw this, she could not help but ask, “What happened? Who made you angry and threw the order away?”
As he spoke, he squatted down and picked up the paper. He placed it on the table and smoothed it out.
However, the ink on it had completely smudged the words. It was impossible to see what the customer had ordered.
The girl could not help but frown. “Xiao Yi, what does it say?”
“What do you care what she wrote? Huh.”
The lady frowned even more badly. “What’s going on? This customer offended you and made you have such an attitude? This won’t do. The boss has said that anyone who comes is a guest and has to be treated well.”
“Aiya, Sister Lan, you don’t understand at all?” Xiao Yi snorted. “What kind of guests are they?”
Xiao Yi glared at her fiercely. “You don’t know, but that woman came yesterday too. Before noon, she came to the shop and ordered two cups of milk tea. One was hers, and the other was her maid’s. Then, the two of them sat in that corner of the hall for the entire afternoon. They didn’t move at all.”
The more Xiao Yi spoke, the angrier she became. “Look at those young ladies and madams who came to our place. Which one of them would sit at the same table as a maidservant and drink tea? Only those ignorant and dilapidated families are so impolite.”
Wei Lan felt that this was wrong. “Xiao Yi, there’s no rule in our shop that you can’t sit with a maidservant.”
“What do you know?” When Xiao Yi saw her retort, her tone could not help but become heavier. “There’s something even worse.”
