Sourness

The box is divided into two rooms, the inside and the outside. The outside is a very elegantly furnished tea room, with a window on one side, and outside the window is a small garden with ponds, rockery, and green willows.

Further inside is the place for banquets.

Mi Yue had never seen such a place before, and suddenly felt like a bumpkin from the countryside.Seeing Da Mao keep looking out of the window, I couldn't help asking for it, "Outside the garden, can you let Da Mao go out to play for a while?"

"Yes." Jing Rong was amused by his carelessness, "Why else should I stay here."

There is a small terrace on the side of the banquet hall facing the small garden, and a set of tables and chairs are placed on the terrace.There is an old laurel tree outside the terrace.

Mi Yue brought Da Mao to the terrace, and found that the box next to her had a similar structure, with a wooden terrace, wooden tables and chairs, and a young woman was making a phone call with her back to them.

Mi Yue didn't want to disturb others, so she pointed to the osmanthus tree next to her and reminded Da Mao in a low voice, "Come back for dinner after playing for a while."

Da Mao took Xiao Mao to climb the tree.

Mi Yue couldn't help but glanced at the balcony next to her.The young woman was tall and slender, and she looked a bit like the Miss Nantang he met at Qin's house in the morning.

When Mi Yue returned to the tea room, she saw that Jing Rong was already boiling water to make tea.

"His tea is pretty good." Jing Rong beckoned him to sit down, "We have to wait for a while for the food. If you are hungry, have some snacks first."

Mi Yue shook his head, he didn't have the habit of eating snacks before meals.

He lowered his head and rummaged through the tea shelf. He couldn't hold back and asked a question about the Qin family, "Qin Zhao seems to have an unusual friendship with a girl named Nan Tang. Do you know this person?"

"Who? Nantang?" Jing Rong looked at him in surprise, "Have you seen her? This woman is not ordinary."

Mi Yue thought of the aggressiveness with which she and Qin Zhao fought, and felt that it was... well, unusual.

Jing Rong could tell what he was thinking by looking at his expression, and couldn't help being amused, "Everyone says that the Nan family is the richest man in Binhai City. Her grandfather Nan Changsheng is the president of the Antique Collection Association. Their family has two For three generations, there were more sons and fewer daughters. The Southern Tang generation also had more girls and boys, and there were five or six brothers and cousins ​​above her, and they were all used to her, so they raised her a little... crooked."

Miyue felt that this young lady was indeed full of style.

Jing Rong poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "I happen to know a little about her and Qin Zhao's affairs. Her grandfather likes to collect and is very active. He often participates in various activities in the antique circle. Nantang is favored. , He took this little granddaughter with him wherever he went, and that's how he got to know Qin Zhao...Qin Zhao was also unlucky, and she fell in love with him."

Mi Yue laughed, "Hey, it's not very kind of you to say that about a girl's family."

Jing Rong rolled his eyes, "What kind of girl...you see who treats her like a girl...she's just like a dominatrix."

Before the words fell, I heard commotion in the box next to me.Because the balcony door was open, the two people in the tea room could clearly hear the sound of porcelain being thrown in the box next door.

Jing Rong jumped up all of a sudden, "I said, why are you so polite about asking this person... Could it be that she is right next to you?"

Mi Yue shook her head, "Just now there was a person on the balcony, I saw a figure from the back, and I think it looks a bit like it."

Jing Rong ran towards the terrace enthusiastically, "Look at the excitement."

Speaking of watching the fun, Jing Rong is a young man after all, so he couldn't do it too blatantly, so he just pushed the balcony door open and tried to hear clearly.

Mi Yue is not very interested in these.He always felt that this city was like another world to him, and he didn't have much contact with the people here.

Their joy, anger, sorrow and joy can't really touch him.

The waiter knocked on the door politely, pushed the dining car in, and began to serve the dishes one by one.

For two people, six exquisite plates and a can of bamboo fungus and old duck soup were served.After asking that the customer came by car, the drink was replaced with the restaurant's homemade sour plum soup.

Jing Rong said with some regret: "The osmanthus wine they make themselves is also very delicious. Next time I have a chance, I will bring you to taste it."

Mi Yue felt that this was just a polite remark.He was going back to Lingxi Mountain. The next time he came to Binhai, he didn't know what year and month it would be.

The two moved their chopsticks, and Miyue was about to praise the chef's skills, when Jing Rong said with a smile: "The person next to him is really Nantang."

Mi Yue was not too surprised.After all, it was someone I had just met early in the morning, so the possibility of admitting mistakes was really slim.

"I listened to it, and it seems that Nan Changsheng is also there." Jing Rong didn't feel ashamed when he heard the corner of the house, but was very interested. "There are a few other guests who seem to want to ask Nan Changsheng to do something. But Looking at it like this, it was also messed up by Nantang."

Mi Yue laughed, "Is it possible that Nan Changsheng didn't want to agree, so he intentionally made Nan Tang stir up trouble?"

Jing Rong thought about it, and even felt that Mi Yue's guess was reasonable.

"If this is the case, it's no wonder that Nan Changsheng loves this granddaughter the most. But..." Jing Rong hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "That's his own granddaughter, who is a grandfather, so it's not a big deal to use his granddaughter as a weapon... possible."

He didn't go any further.

However, Mi Yue's thoughts are different from Jing Rong's. He has only been in Binhai for a few days, and he already knows that Nan Tang is a dominatrix.Is her family unable to change the image of this girl?Or do you not care about Nantang's reputation at all?

Lin Qingshan once told his apprentices about the affairs of the rich and powerful families.In his early years, he was often invited to appraise treasures, and the people who went in and out were all rich and powerful people.

His old man once murmured to them with a small wine: the rich and powerful have a lot of dirty things, this sentence is really not nonsense.

A shadow flickered outside the glass door of the terrace, and Da Mao rushed in with a leaf on one end, holding a ball of white fluff in his hand.

Mi Yue was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Where did it come from?"

Da Mao raised the white cat with its long tail flicking restlessly in his hand, and showed off to Mi Yue proudly, "I picked it up on the grass."

Mi Yue leaned over to look at the cat, and asked it, "Where's your master?"

Seeing him approaching, the white cat breathed a little nervously.

Naturally, Jing Rong didn't know that the man and monkey on the opposite side could communicate through language, so he kept guessing, "This breed is not cheap, it can't be a stray cat... Which customer brought it out?"

Mi Yue thought of the back of the phone caller on the balcony next to her, and her heart skipped a beat. Could it be from the Nan family?

Sometimes I just want to do whatever I want, Mi Yue didn't bother to talk to Jing Rong, when I heard someone knock on the door twice, and before I could say "Please come in", the door was pushed vigorously, and the door leaf slammed into the ground. There was a loud bang on the wall.

The two people in the room were startled.

The one who appeared at the door of the box was indeed the dominatrix Nan Tang.She pointed at Miyue aggressively, "I knew it was you, a monkey, playing tricks behind your back. Give Niuniu back to me!"

Mi Yue also felt that she was in the wrong, but she just opened the door without asking anything, which still made people feel a little annoying, as if the whole world owed her an explanation, and she should bow and bow when seeing her.

Miyue ignored her, turned around and said to Da Mao: "Don't pick up all the messy things at home. Wherever you pick them up, throw them back."

Da Mao was frightened by this woman. Hearing Mi Yue's words, he immediately jumped up and down to soak outside the terrace.

Nan Tang was anxious, "Oh, why are you like this?"

Mi Yue frowned, "What's wrong with me? The pet at home is not sensible, of course we have to teach it not to pick up things casually. What's the problem? It's you, you have to knock on the door before entering, it's not your way of knocking. Miss, with all due respect, Your etiquette teacher is really remiss."

Even if Nan Tang knew that he had a bad reputation, to be honest, few people would say anything in person when looking at Nan Changsheng's face.I don't know what luck happened today. Early in the morning, Qin Zhao criticized her for being uneducated, and now another poor relative of Qin Zhao said that he was uneducated.

"What are you?" Nan Tangtai turned cold, but his eyes stared at Mi Yue as if they were on fire, "What qualifications do you have to say that?"

Jing Rong also lowered his face, "Miss Nan, I'm treating guests, and you come here uninvited, isn't it appropriate?"

Nan Tang glanced at him with contempt in his eyes, "Who did I think it was, it turned out to be Young Master Jing. Why, you can't hang around and hang around, and hang out with a monkey?"

Jing Rong had never quarreled with a woman before, and he really didn't know how to reply when she was so pissed off.Miyue next to her couldn't listen any longer, she thought to herself, how could a lady of every family speak so lightly when she spoke obscene words?

Mi Yue couldn't help but said to the two waiters who came by the door and came over to probe her head: "Please send this lady out, she is not welcome here. Oh, and also...you have to have money if you want to be close to a monkey. I don’t have the skills, I only play prestige with irrelevant people, even if it’s a monkey, it’s not everyone’s side.”

Nan Tang was furious, "What do you mean?!"

Mi Yue felt that the meal was really disappointing, he only drank half a bowl of soup, and his good appetite was spoiled, it's still so expensive here!

He turned to the sullen Jing Rong and said, "Let's find another place, how can you eat when it's so noisy. Your restaurant is too fussy, what kind of service are these?"

The waiters looked ashamed, but they couldn't do anything about it. If they came out to work, who could provoke a lady like Nantang?

Two more people squeezed through the door, first a handsome man in his thirties, with stubble on his chin, his hair was a little disheveled, and he looked a bit untidy.

He glanced at Nan Tang with a gloomy expression, took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Mi Yue, "I am Xi Shuo, the boss here, and I am very sorry to disturb your meal. This guest, I have invited you to this table today." .As compensation, if you come back in the future, the store will give you a [-]% discount."

Mi Yue felt that it was useless for him to ask for this thing, but the boss said it sincerely, so he accepted it.You Qi felt much better when he heard that he didn't need to pay for this meal.

Seeing that he accepted the VIP card, Xi Shuo smiled slightly, and when he turned his head to look at Nan Tang, his face sank again, "Nan Tang, how can I offend you, you are coming to smash my business?"

Nan Tang choked.

If there were no people like Mi Yue, she would directly explain that she didn't intend to make trouble, but with Mi Yue and Jing Rong watching, she would not be willing to lower her head.

The middle-aged man who was chasing after Xi Shuo saw this scene, and hurriedly walked over with a smile to smooth things over, "Boss Xi, what a coincidence, the president is also here, why don't you... let's sit down together? If you have anything to say, say it face to face Open, so as not to cause any misunderstanding."
