Chapter 766
Mrs. Zhao had been binge-watching a show last night and didn't get up until the sun was high. Walking upstairs and seeing the empty living room, she couldn't help but sigh again:
The child is in college, the husband isn't home; not to mention binge-watching until the world goes dark, even eating dinner is just her all by herself!
Sigh, the life of a wealthy lady is truly so decadent!
She came to the dining room in a lovely mood: "Toast two slices of oat bread for me, with something low-fat... Oh my, I've gained a bit of weight again, I can't eat too much."
The nanny smiled and agreed: "I'll make it right away." Turning her head, she saw a quite beautiful gift box on the dining table and only then remembered:
"Ma'am, this is the grand opening gift box from Chang Le Ju. They said it's limited supply daily, and inside are rare treasures with a rare taste. They instructed me to definitely urge you to taste a bite..."
She had a deep impression of it: "That young man who delivered it swore to heaven that if it weren't a rare treasure, you would be right to throw it in the trash can."
Oh my! If you put it that way, Mrs. Zhao suddenly had an appetite! At this moment, she opened the gift box and saw a proper-looking invitation on top—
Grand Opening of Chang Le Ju.
There are too many restaurants and hotels opening these days. Mrs. Zhao casually set the invitation aside and looked down curiously at the things inside.
And the nanny stood by her side, watching her cautiously: "Are, are you not too hungry?"
At most, the nanny was reluctant to part with it when handing over the cup: "Ma'am, this tea is so fragrant!"
Old Zhao in the office soon felt this marital affection.
His fingers pinched that quail-egg-sized chestnut cake, clearly very disdainful. However, once the cake entered his mouth, the rich chestnut aroma melted completely, making him widen his eyes in an instant!
How, how is it so delicious?!
But after all, he was also a businessman with a thick enough skin. At this moment, he coughed, then laboriously put the chestnut cake down and pulled that invitation over again—
Nanny:...
"How is it? I saved such delicious things for you. Tell me, you aren't even willing to accompany me for dinner..."
"Ah?" The nanny checked the time: It's ten-thirty in the morning!
She wanted to say that you drank milk tea yesterday while dieting; if you really craved white fungus, we could stew it at noon!
Then there was a cup of glistening white dessert. Lifting the lid, inside was a plain-looking white fungus soup.
"Brew the tea in that box, use my cup. By the way, tell the driver to prepare, I'm going to deliver lunch to Old Zhao."
【Oh my, Sister Zhao, are you still old? You look like a college student when you walk out the door】
【Chang Le Ju, which the old man loved to visit the most, now gradually has a new look... Time waits for no one!】【Attached image】
She listlessly picked up that cup of white fungus soup, thinking that this old shop was also getting worse and worse. However, once the slightly cool white fungus soup entered her mouth, her entire spirit was instantly invigorated!
The stewed, finely crushed white fungus melted in her mouth, the texture as she swallowed was extremely silky, and that slight sweetness was just right... In short, it was white fungus soup, yet it was completely different from anything she had eaten before!
Mrs. Zhao's spirits lifted, and she immediately called her husband: "Do you have time tonight? Accompany me for a meal."
Mrs. Zhao's old face flushed red.
"Ma'am..." The nanny stood by, stunned.
By the time she came to her senses, only the last chestnut cake remained in her hand.
"So... what should I arrange for lunch?"
He looked at the milky-yellow chestnut cake on the small dish, which was even lonelier than his only son. He felt that marital affection, but not entirely.
He is a middle-aged man! Middle-aged men love tea and string beads, and he loves them too! He loves them so much!
Once this post was made on Moments, someone immediately commented:
Sigh, blame my gluttonous mouth for being useless; I almost ate it on the way! But after all, Old Zhao is more important.
He looked at Mrs. Zhao with eyes full of disbelief. Only then was Mrs. Zhao satisfied:
Zhao Zong on the side:... What flavor??!
However, Mrs. Zhao could no longer care about other people's gazes. At this moment, seeing there was none left to drink, she simply opened the divider lid on the dish and reached out to pick up a chestnut cake!
What else could Zhao Zong say? He chewed carefully, swallowed slowly, and only felt that his whole mouth was filled with the taste of chestnut cake. His only thought now was to tell his assistant to quickly buy ten more portions!
Mrs. Zhao scrolled twice, and after seeing too much, she really didn't feel anything, so she threw her phone aside.
The couple looked at each other, and the next moment, Zhao Zong's face bloomed with a smile: "Wife..."
【Still Mrs. Zhao who has face; Chang Le Ju is our century-old shop, they even have to send you an invitation for their new opening!】
She was speechless. At this moment, she raised her hand to take a photo and posted it on Moments:
I've received plenty of invitations and gifts, but it's truly rare to see one where the portion size is so stingy.
【My family also received one early this morning... Since you say so, it really is an old shop. Business is hard to do, I'd better taste it】
Mrs. Zhao, however, twisted the lid on, quickly retreated, and slipped away: "I still have things to do, you go ahead and busy yourself, you have a meeting!"
Mrs. Zhao, however, looked at him with a face full of deep affection: "Hurry and taste it, let's share good things together. I went to great lengths to have it delivered."
The invitation didn't say much nonsense; the central idea was one thing: tonight, Chang Le Ju invites everyone to taste rare delicacies.
"If I didn't have deep affection for Old Zhao as a married couple, I'd be afraid he'd miss out on such good things... That's why I sent the snacks and tea over."
【Chang Le Ju? Oh my, it really is an old restaurant. My mom had a birthday banquet there one year, invited by that chef】
Fine, let's eat then.
How, how is it so delicious?!
Zhao Zong:...
He jumped up in an instant, looking as heartbroken as if he had seen a cow chewing on a peony: "How could you use that kind of cup to brew tea?!"
Seeing his appearance, Mrs. Zhao was satisfied. At this moment, she nonchalantly twisted open the water cup, and was then hit in the face by the steaming aroma of tea leaves.
Mrs. Zhao's spirits were high. At this moment, she really couldn't hold back, forgot about her weight-loss grand cause, and instead took a small spoon and, in two or three bites, scraped the entire small bowl clean!
A dish of milky-yellow chestnut cakes, made exceptionally delicate in size, one bite each. Three in a group were separated on both sides, clearly with different flavors.
For a moment, He Suwan was moved by her own sincere love.
The entrance was that soft, glutinous, powdery texture, followed by a rich sweetness, and then...
Mrs. Zhao:...
Who cares about all that? In short, it's just delicious, delicious, delicious!
Finally, what was packed separately in a small wooden box was a large portion of tea leaves.
How should I put it?
Mrs. Zhao was also confused: "I just took the cup and left... How would I know that tea was so good!"
"You white-hearted capitalist, who would be willing to accompany you to a meeting at one o'clock!" She hung up the phone indignantly, but staring at that lonely milky-yellow chestnut cake in the dish, her expression gradually became smug again.
The other end of the phone paused and negotiated: "Tomorrow, okay? I have a meeting at one o'clock tonight, it's quite important..."
Mrs. Zhao, however, raised her chin, signaling him to look at the table:
