Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 250 Free Lunch

An Yue and Gu Mingchuan arrived at the door of a restaurant called Millennium Restaurant.

An Yue stood outside the restaurant's door and had a sense of déjà vu.

She raised her head and scratched the back of her head, muttering, "Could this be Shopkeeper Wang's restaurant in the county town?"

There were two waiters standing by the gate, and they saw An Yue and Gu Mingchuan standing outside the gate.

One of the waiters came forward, raised his hand and made a "please" gesture to An Yue and Gu Mingchuan, smiled and said respectfully: "Two guests, please come in."

The two followed the waiter's lead and walked into the restaurant.

The restaurant hall was full of guests and there were obviously no empty seats.

"My two guests, there are no empty tables in the hall. Please follow me to the second floor!"

Gu Mingchuan nodded to the waiter.

Then, the two followed the waiter to the second floor and sat at a window seat.

"My dear guests, this is the restaurant menu. Please tell me what you would like to order." The waiter bent down and took out a folding wooden board from his waist and handed it to Gu Mingchuan respectfully.

An Yue found the menu very curious, so she tilted her head to take a look.

She found that the names of various dishes were written vertically on the wooden board. This was the first time she had seen such a menu since she traveled here.

Seeing An Yue reading the menu carefully, Gu Mingchuan handed it to An Yue and said, "Girl, please order!"

An Yue waved her hand quickly: "Sir, please order the dishes!"

Gu Mingchuan looked at An Yue again and saw that An Yue really didn't want to order any food.

So he took back the menu he handed to An Yue and began to look at it carefully.

"Little Brother, come to us..."

Gu Mingchuan talked to the waiter about ordering food, and An Yue stood up and walked to the window.

She stuck her head out to look at the street on the first floor, then raised her hand to shade herself from the sun and looked into the distance.

I sighed in my heart: [This county town is different from the town. The streets are clean and wide, and pedestrians are leisurely. If I had money, I would also like to live in the county town. Alas... I just don't know when I can become a rich woman! ]

Unconsciously, Gu Mingchuan was already standing behind An Yue. He leaned over to look in the direction An Yue was looking at and asked, "What are you staring at, young lady?"

"Nothing...nothing." An Yue quickly turned around and sat back at the dining table.

Soon the waiter came over with a teapot and poured tea for them.

Gu Mingchuan picked up the teacup and took a few sips of tea.

Soon the waiter brought a small dish and placed it in the middle of the table. It was a dish of cold cucumber salad.

After the waiter put the dishes down, he turned and went to the first floor.

Half an hour later.

The waiter brought another large plate, which was a fish dish.

The waiter made a 'please' gesture and said, "This dish is called braised fish. Please enjoy it slowly, both of you."

An Yue couldn't help but smile when she saw the braised fish on the big plate.

Seeing An Yue laughing secretly, Gu Mingchuan asked, "Why is the girl laughing? Don't you like this dish?"

"No, no, no, I just think this dish looks and tastes good."

"Then try it quickly, girl." Gu Mingchuan said, motioning An Yue to pick up the fish and eat it.

An Yue picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised fish and put it into her mouth, savoring it carefully.

She said silently in her heart: [It has a bit of a fishy smell, but the meat is still fresh. Although it is not as delicious as what I cook myself, this method is generally fine in the hotel.]

An Yue swallowed the fish in her mouth, and then she picked up another piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.

Nodding his head in affirmation, "Yeah, it tastes great!"

After seeing An Yue taste the food, Gu Mingchuan gave him a favorable comment.

He patted his chest with a proud look on his face and said, "It's delicious! I'm a frequent customer of this restaurant."

An Yue didn't say anything, just nodded with a "hmm".

The waiter brought two more dishes one after another. An Yue was surprised and asked, "Master Gu ordered so many dishes. Can he finish them?"

"Who said we have to finish the dishes we ordered?" Gu Mingchuan said as he picked up the dishes.

"It would be a waste of food if we can't finish it!!"

"Who has ever entered a restaurant and eaten all the food on the plate?"

After Gu Mingchuan finished speaking, he continued to eat.

"That's right. After all, your family is big and prosperous."

After a while, the two had lunch.

An Yue came down from the second floor with Gu Mingchuan, carrying a backpack, and walked to the counter to pay.

A middle-aged man walked out from the counter, looked at An Yue and asked politely, "Excuse me, young lady, is your last name An?"

An Yue scratched her head in confusion and asked, "You are...?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Girl, just say yes or no."

An Yue nodded hesitantly.

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Haha... I was wondering if the girl looked familiar. It turns out to be Miss An Yue!"

An Yue was even more puzzled and asked in surprise: "Uncle shopkeeper, how come you recognize me?"

"My lady, you tend to forget things easily, so it's normal that you don't remember me. But I really remember you, my lady."

An Yue raised her head and scratched her scalp, then asked, "What do you mean?"

"Do you still remember the 'Wanfulou' in Shijing Town?"

An Yue nodded at the man: "Of course."

"This restaurant is Boss Wang's restaurant in the county town."

"How could that uncle recognize me?" An Yue couldn't remember having seen the man before.

"Haha...of course I recognize it."

An Yue saw that the man was not going to say anything, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Gu Mingchuan saw that something was wrong, so he turned around and asked An Yue: "Do you know each other?"

An Yue smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Gu Mingchuan watched the people behind him waiting to pay, so he said to the man, "Boss, let's pay first."

The man said to Gu Mingchuan, "Sir, this meal is free of charge."

After hearing this, An Yue and Gu Mingchuan looked at each other in disbelief, then looked at the shopkeeper. They were so surprised that they asked in unison, "Forget it?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said respectfully, "Yes, sir."

At this moment, Gu Mingchuan was like a confused monk - he was a little confused.

An Yue stretched out her middle and index fingers, made a gesture of walking on two legs, tilted her head and asked the shopkeeper, "You mean, we can leave now?"

The man nodded with a smile and replied, "Yes, Miss Anyue."

An Yue turned around with the backpack on her back and confirmed again: "We are really leaving now!"

"Goodbye, young lady!" The shopkeeper smiled and waved to An Yue.

An Yue and Gu Mingchuan looked back every time they took a step, and they felt like thieves as they sneaked out of the Millennium Building.

An Yue held the backpack's shoulder straps with both hands and muttered, "Is there really such a thing as a free lunch in this world?"

"Yeah! This is the first time in my life that I've eaten and drunk for free in a restaurant." Gu Mingchuan also muttered.

Soon, An Yue stopped worrying about it.

Because she believes that there is no free lunch in the world.

Manager Wang must be playing the long game to hook this big fish.

An Yue said to Gu Mingchuan:
