Tofu Dongshi

After shopping for most of the afternoon, the two of them were exhausted physically, their feet were sore, their mouths were thirsty, and their stomachs were a little hungry.

After realizing that Dou Jiafu couldn't turn his eyes away from the biscuits sold at a street stall, almost drooling, Zhen Zhigong smiled slightly, "Let's go, find a place to rest your feet."

But after walking a few steps, Zhen Zhigong took Dou Jiafu to a two-story building with elegant decoration and a fragrant smell. On the lintel of the door hung a gold-lettered signboard——Zhenji Tea House.

Dou Jiafu had never been to this kind of place, and he was really greedy, so he followed him directly to the second floor.

After sitting down at a table by the window, Zhen Zhigong waved his hand, and said to the shopkeeper who had been following him all the way with a flattering face since he entered the door, he said boldly, "I will serve you a portion of all the dim sum."

Just as the shopkeeper was about to agree, Dou Jiafu hurriedly stood up to stop him, "Where can I eat so much, just order two or three things!"

The shopkeeper hesitated, and looked at Zhen Zhigong involuntarily.

Zhen Zhigong said helplessly: "Then let's pick some of the signs."

"Okay! You two wait a moment!" The shopkeeper readily responded, and went downstairs like a gust of wind.

Xiao Er first served a pot of tea, and after boiling the cup, he poured two cups of fragrant and clear tea. Dou Jiafu was a little thirsty, so he blew hard a few times, and drank it down.One cup was not enough, so he poured another one by himself, and drank it all in one go.

Zhen Zhigong laughed and shook his head, it's really a waste of money to eat peonies, but to this kid, this pot of tea may not be as good as a bowl of cold water to quench his thirst.

This pot of tea is top-grade Silver Needle, and the output is not much. Although it is not the best tea, it is not bad. It is rarely sold to customers in this teahouse. It is only because he is here that the shopkeeper serves it out of flattery. Come up, if it is sold, it is basically a tael of tea and a tael of gold.If Xiao Doufu knew that he drank half a tael of gold in one go, he would be so depressed that he vomited blood.

When Dou Jiafu was drinking tea, baskets of exquisite and beautiful snacks were brought up, and they were piled up on the table in a short while, with a total of more than ten kinds.

He put down the teacup to take a look, and couldn't help but widen his eyes instantly, "Why are there so many? Didn't you just say that you only need a few kinds!"

Zhen Zhigong reassured: "These are just a small part. There are over a hundred kinds of dim sum in this teahouse. Don't look at the quantity, in fact, each portion is very small. You can eat it in two bites. Eat dim sum in a teahouse." , It’s just that the quantity is small and the variety is large, and it’s just fun to eat.”

Dou Jiafu took a closer look, and it was indeed the case. With the capacity of himself and Zhen Zhigong, it should be no problem to solve all of them, so he stopped protesting.

Needless to say the taste of dim sum, Dou Jiafu ate so much that he couldn't lift his head, Zhen Zhigong didn't eat much by himself, he just picked a few random ones and ate a few mouthfuls, and the rest of the time was drinking tea while watching Dou Jiafu eat with a smile .

Dou Jiafu was particularly fond of a vermicelli soup, and he ate it happily, even licking off a little bit of residue from the bottom of the bowl.

Seeing that he liked it, Zhen Zhigong asked Xiao Er to drink two more cups.

Dou Jiafu was a little embarrassed, but he didn't care too much about the food at the moment, and thought that it was just a fan, and the price should be cheaper, so he ate it heartily.

It was probably because he ate too sweetly, a child about seven or eight years old at the table next to him pointed at him: "Father, I want to eat the kind that my brother eats."

The man at the same table beckoned over to Xiao Er, and asked Dou Jiafu, "What does that little brother eat, and how much is a bowl?"

The waiter replied: "That's shark's fin, five taels of silver per cup, how many cups would you like, sir?"

The man was taken aback, and waved his hands again and again: "It's too expensive, I don't even want a cup! You can serve me two bowls of vermicelli!"

Dou Jiafu was taking his last sip, because he was so close, he heard the conversation between the two clearly in his ears, and almost spit it out immediately.

What? !This is not a fan, but a shark fin?Want five taels of silver for a bowl?Heaven and earth, he ate three bowls just now, didn't he ask for 15 taels of silver!He can't make any money selling tofu for two years! ! !

At first, he was so shocked that he almost spat out the last mouthful of shark fin, but after thinking about it, this mouthful was almost a tael of silver. Isn’t it a sin to spit it out, so he swallowed it again with tears in his eyes.

Then he turned his head to look at Zhen Zhigong who was watching the play with his lips curled up, and said sadly: "It's so expensive, why didn't you say it earlier?!"

Zhen Zhigong didn't take it seriously, "Is it expensive? It's so-so."

Is this still called average?Prodigal son ah ah ah ah!

Dou Jiafu burst into tears, and was about to refute, Zhen Zhigong leaned into his ear, lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, you can just eat as much as you like, and you don't need to pay for it."

When he was speaking, his lips touched Dou Jiafu's earlobe intentionally or unintentionally, but Dou Jiafu felt his whole body go numb, and the root of his ear suddenly burned.

The two were too close, Dou Jiafu was a little uncomfortable, and his heartbeat was unsteady for no reason.However, at this moment, he didn't care to pay attention to this issue. He just rubbed his itchy ears, opened his eyes and asked, "Why don't you pay me?"

Zhen Zhigong smiled slightly, "This really remembers that the teahouse was opened by the Zhen family, and my young master is the boss. Who dares to ask my young master for money?"

Dou Jiafu was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't laugh or cry, it turned out that he had eaten at his own home, no wonder he was so generous.

However, even the boss can't be so extravagant and wasteful, the cost of shark's fin will not be cheap.

You could tell what he was thinking by looking at his face, Zhen Zhigong flicked his forehead with his finger, and said with a smile: "Isn't money just for spending, don't you want to save it and bury it in the ground after death to make money for tomb robbers? That's enough, don't be depressed, you can spend your money as you please, and you won't be able to spend it all in your lifetime."

Just as Dou Jiafu wanted to say that it was more than one lifetime, even ten lifetimes would never be spent, he suddenly felt something was wrong, so he curled his lips and said, "Just talk cheap, your money is not mine, how can you spend it for a lifetime. With your light, I will go back within a month at most."

Zhen Zhigong was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly had the urge to say something, but at this moment in the noisy teahouse, facing that innocent and innocent face, he didn't know where to start. , After a long while, he forced a smile and said: "Then this month, you can enjoy the glory of this young master to your heart's content."

Dou Jiafu gritted his teeth, "Don't worry, that's for sure!"

After clearing all the remaining snacks on the table, the two went downstairs, and the shopkeeper personally sent them to the door with a smile on his face, and also sent them a sentence, "Young master, come often when you are free."

After leaving Zhenji Teahouse, the two took a walk while digesting food.

Along the way, Dou Jiafu also saw some other "Zhenji" shops, such as Zhenji tea house, Zhenji pawn shop, Zhenji jade shop, etc. After asking someone for confirmation, he got a positive answer that the owners of these shops were indeed named "Zhen".

Dou Jiafu only now has a deep understanding of someone's big business and strong family property, and he can't help but lament the magic and unpredictability of fate.

If it wasn't for that guy who was unlucky enough to be attacked and injured near Zhangjia Village, and happened to be picked up by him who passed by, the two of them would never have gotten along with each other in their lifetime.One spends money to enjoy the luxury of clothing and food, and the other works hard to make ends meet, just like the beginning and the end of a big river, with a gap of thousands of miles in the middle, and there is no possibility of meeting forever.
