Rebirth of the Giants: The Return of the Devil's Daughter

Regarding the decoration design of the storefront, Wen Xinya called Gu Junlin. He really had contacts in this area and introduced a designer who was experienced in ancient architectural design. Zhongxing Datang, a collection of honor and luxury, truly created a palace feast.

Gu Junlin also introduced the original decorator of Jiuchongtian to Wenxinya. Wenxinya was naturally overjoyed and entrusted them with full authority over the store decoration. The store decoration is in progress non-stop, and it is estimated that it will be completed within three months. Finish.

This matter was done, Wen Xinya decided to invite Gu Junlin to have a meal as a token of gratitude, and of course Zhou Tianyu, Xu Tongxuan and Ling Qingxuan were also invited, but it was a pity that Han Mofeng, the supervisor of the military academy, could not be together.

Naturally, Gu Junlin couldn't go to Jiuchongtian for dinner, otherwise it would be too insincere. After all, Jiuchongtian is his family's property, and he has never tasted any of the dishes and wines there.

Wen Xinya accidentally heard her grandfather mention a private kitchen, so she invited Gu Junlin to taste the dishes together.

After school, a group of several people came to a small alley in the southern district of the capital. The small alley still maintains the ancient buildings, with the depth and tranquility after the vicissitudes of life, the slightly faded walls, mottled with the traces of time, but Unexpectedly, there is a thick and simple atmosphere.

Wen Xinya led them to the gate of a courtyard, tapped the copper ring on the door twice, and the door was soon opened. A middle-aged woman in her 40s, wearing a blue calico dress, Her hair was coiled behind her head, combed meticulously, and her nails were neatly trimmed, giving her a simple and clean look.

"Are the guests here for dinner? We only accept reservations here!" Although the woman refused, there was a kind smile on Yuanyuan's face, which made people feel disgusted.

Wen Xinya smiled and said, "It was Mr. Mo who introduced us."

The woman quickly opened the door with a smile: "Guests please come inside."

The courtyard is a popular quadrangle courtyard in the old Beijing. There is an artificial lake in the center of the courtyard. There is a rockery in the lake. There are a group of four-color koi in it, wagging their tails and playing leisurely. A cluster of green bamboos is elegant and the bamboo leaves are soft. Added a bit of tranquility.

The woman led Wen Xinya and the others into a private room. There was a painting of bamboo rhyme in the private room. Wen Xinya could tell at a glance that it was the handwriting of her grandfather, so she couldn't help being a little surprised.

After several people sat down, the woman smiled and said, "What do you want to drink? We only have tea here."

Wen Xinya said: "Have a pot of Biluochun, and then serve some snacks as you like."

After the woman left, Gu Junlin couldn't help laughing and said, "This place is pretty good. I claim to have visited the capital all over the place, but I didn't know that there is such an elegant place hidden in the capital."

The furnishings in the private room have an antique charm, especially the bamboo charm, which adds a sense of elegance to the whole private room.

Wen Xinya said with a smile: "I only heard about it from my grandfather, here! The bamboo rhyme above is written by my grandfather. It seems that my grandfather has a good relationship with the owner here."

Grandpa's paintings are sought after by many people, but the paintings of grandpa are rarely circulated outside. This private kitchen can get grandpa's handwriting, which must be because of his close relationship with grandpa.

Gu Junlin said: "It turned out to be Mo Gong's handwriting. Most of Mo Gong's paintings are majestic, with thick brush and ink. This is the first time I have seen such leisurely and interesting paintings. Looking at it this way, Mo Gong's indifferent state of mind is more suitable for such a leisurely life." Elegant and interesting."

Zhou Tianyu stared at the paintings on the wall with bright eyes: "Last time on my birthday, my grandfather was amazed by the essay on never giving up that Mo Gong wrote to me. Being able to enter Mo Gong's eyes and get Mo Gong's guidance is a blessing I have cultivated in my three lives, let me cherish the blessing."

Xu Tongxuan said: "My family keeps a picture of Mo Gong's eight steeds, and my grandfather always regards it as a treasure."

Ling Qingxuan said with a smile: "I once saw a picture of the beauty of mountains and rivers painted by Mo Gong at an auction abroad. It was so majestic and breathtaking. In the end, it was bought by a foreign businessman for 850 million yuan. The paintings of contemporary painters can fetch such sky-high prices, it must be Mo Gong."

Several people chatted and laughed, the bamboo door between the doors was pushed open, and another woman in her 40s, also wearing a blue calico dress, came in with tea.

The woman has a gentle appearance, her face is not beautiful, but she is very good-looking. There is a bookish look in her eyes: "The young lady and the young lady look very similar, but their temperament is more like the old man. They really deserve to be children of the Mo family."

Wen Xinya was startled, hearing the tone, could it be that this woman was once a servant of the Mo family.

The woman explained her doubts with a smile: "I used to serve your grandmother, you can call me Bai Ma. After getting married, I left Mo's house and opened this private restaurant."

"Bai Ma, hello!" Wen Xinya called out kindly.

Bai Ma seemed very happy: "Miss, what do you want to eat with these guests?"

"This is our first time here, Madam Bai, you can arrange some special dishes for us." Wen Xinya's attitude towards this woman became closer.

"Okay! I'll go right away!" Bai Ma didn't say much, she turned and left the private room.

Several people were eating dim sum, and Xu Tongxuan was amazed at the dim sum here: "Xinya, you white mother is really amazing, it's the first time I've eaten such delicious dim sum, I must take some with me when I leave later. go back."

Zhou Tianyu brought the chestnut cake in front of Xu Tongxuan to himself: "Eat less, you won't be able to eat any more after the dishes are served." Then he picked up the chestnut cake and started eating.

Wen Xinya can tell that Mama He probably learned her pastry skills from this white mama.

The dishes were served quickly, and the table was filled with all kinds of steamed, boiled, fried and stewed dishes. The main dishes of each department were braised white meal, yellow flower tofu fish, deep-fried meatballs, steamed pork ribs, and some other dishes, but they all made people feel uncomfortable. Wen Xinya and several people were amazed.

Gu Junlin is well-informed, and couldn't help but praise: "These dishes seem to be popular, but if you smell them carefully, you can tell that they are made with exclusive and secret methods. rustic taste."

"I don't care if it tastes good or not, I'll eat it first!" Xu Tongxuan picked up a piece of fish tofu with her chopsticks, and the fresh and tender tofu smelled like fish, which made her eyes widen suddenly: "It's really delicious. "

Wen Xinya likes spicy food, so she sandwiched a piece of braised white meat, fresh and tender white meat, with authentic Huzhou spicy style, which made Wen Xinya very happy to eat.
