Yan Qianqian

A group rode in a carriage at a leisurely pace to the entrance of Zui Xian Lou, eyeing the bustling crowd inside, very lively. Yue Yi hurried into Zui Xian Lou and opened his mouth to ask: "Xiao Er, do you have private rooms?"

A man who looked thin but was nimble answered: "Yes, there happens to be one left upstairs." Yue Yi was about to say "Then this one...",

before he finished speaking, a very loud voice rang out: "Xiao Er, this private room is wanted by this young lady." A woman in red shouted at the top of her lungs, incredibly arrogant and domineering. Yue Yi was not to be outdone, directly saying: "Come on, Xiao Er, upstairs." The waiter said to the woman with an apologetic face: "Sorry, this young master came first."

The woman in red refused to give in: "This young lady will pay double, if not triple or quintuple, today this private room is definitely mine." This woman in red was quite handsome, but that arrogant face really lowered her looks.

The waiter had a difficult expression, glancing at Yue Yi, asking: "Young master, can this private room be given to this young lady?" Yue Yi answered decisively: "My young lady wants to eat at this place today, no negotiation." The waiter had to say: "Young lady, really sorry, this young master came first, please wait a moment, I will arrange a private room for you as soon as one is available."

The woman in red refused to give in: "Do you know who this young lady is? Believe it or not, this young lady will make your shop close immediately?" Qianqian, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Yue Yi still hadn't come back, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and ran in herself. Upon entering, she saw Yue Yi and the woman in red in a standoff.

Yue Yi saw Qianqian at a glance and hurriedly said: "Fifth Miss, let's go up, Xiao Er, lead the way." After speaking, seeing no one paid attention to her, the woman in red directly drew the sword on her back and stabbed at Yue Yi. Yue Yi did not dodge, just watched the sword come, only hearing a "clang", he drew a dagger from his waist and easily blocked the sword. Yue Yi exerted a little force, and the sword snapped in half with a "crack".

The woman was even angrier now, holding the broken sword like a madwoman, stabbing at Yue Yi again and again. Yue Yi couldn't take it anymore, kicked out, directly kicking the woman flying. The woman landed with a "thud", lying on the ground.

The maid hurriedly ran over to help her up, still muttering: "Do you know my young lady is the current emperor's... You just wait for the shop to close and good luck!" The woman in red climbed up, at this time the manager of the building also came down, cupping his fists to the woman in red and saying: "Sixth Princess, today this matter is really sorry..."

Just as he said this, An Wang led Yan Wang in, An Wang looked at the woman in red on the ground, then glanced at Yue Yi, Yue Yi spoke: "Master, she wanted to snatch our private room." The woman in red saw An Wang and hurriedly saluted: "Imperial Uncle."

An Wang frowned and said: "Did your royal brother know you left the palace?" The Sixth Princess dared not make a sound, she had originally sneaked out, how dare she speak, An Wang continued: "Sixth Princess is becoming more and more capable, not only sneaking out of the palace, but also relying on her princess identity to bully common people, after lunch this king will go to the Imperial Palace to play chess with my royal brother."

The Sixth Princess was so scared her face turned white, saying to An Wang: "Imperial Uncle, An Yu knows her mistake, will never dare again, you must not tell Huangdi." The Wangye was too lazy to bother with her, taking Qianqian and Yan Wang upstairs, the waiter hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way, only leaving the Sixth Princess in red clothes a bit dirty, and the maid supporting her, at this time the two stood in place without a word, the gazes of the surrounding people made their faces feel hot, they hurriedly left together.

An Wang took the children into the private room, everyone's mood was not affected by what happened just now. After they sat down, Xiao Er asked: "What do you guests want to eat?" Yue Yi answered: "A few signature dishes, and two Beggar's Chicken." "Okay!" Xiao Er responded and went down. While they waited, Qianqian said to An Wang: "Father, Qianqian has finished horse riding, so do we not need to go to the Shangshufang?" An Wang raised an eyebrow: "That won't do, the Shangshufang must be visited, otherwise your Xiao Honghong will be gone." Qianqian pouted, thinking of having to go to the Shangshufang, she suddenly couldn't be happy.

After a while, the delicious dishes were served as lightly as fairies, emitting an enticing aroma. Qianqian's pair of lively eyes sparkled with anticipation, she impatiently picked up the small spoon, scooping back and forth in the plate like a happy little bird, she was really extremely cute, eating with great joy, as if the whole world only had this delicious food.

After a moment, finally, the two fragrant Beggar's Chickens made a grand entrance. Only saw the waiter carefully carrying two plates walking slowly, each plate quietly lying a thing like a particularly large stone, the mysterious appearance made everyone couldn't help but be curious.

The waiter gently placed the plates on the table, then took out a small exquisite hammer from his waist, holding it with both hands, using all his strength to strike once, only hearing a "bang", the outer layer of hard dry mud cracked a thin gap on the spot, as if the earth was gently torn open a mouth. Immediately after, he struck several times in succession, the dry mud broke inch by inch, revealing the lotus leaves tightly wrapped inside, green and oily, bound together with rope. Everyone stared at this wonderful scene without blinking, their hearts full of anticipation.

After the mud was cleaned cleanly, the waiter then unhurriedly began to untie the bound rope, every movement seemed so skilled and solemn. As the rope gradually loosened, the rich true fragrance like light gauze drifted in the air, making everyone's nostrils couldn't help but twitch slightly.

Everyone also stopped their movements one after another, gazes all focused on the waiter's every move, as if time stopped at this moment, the whole room was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere. After the whole chicken was slowly revealed, everyone's gazes were instantly attracted, only seeing the golden chicken body emitting an enticing color, as if telling everyone its deliciousness. As the waiter exerted a little force, the originally closely connected bones easily fell down, making a crisp sound, as if playing the prelude for the upcoming food feast.

Qianqian at this time could no longer suppress her inner excitement, she like a nimble little beast, without hesitation stretched out her hand, with the force of thunder too fast to cover one's ears tore off a huge chicken leg. The movement was so skilled, as if she had practiced countless times, and she not only easily tore off the chicken leg, but also pulled down a large piece of fresh and juicy meat, that meat seemed to flash with an enticing luster, making people drool.

Qianqian carefully placed the torn chicken leg into An Wang's bowl, eyes full of expectation saying: "Father, you eat." An Wang looked at his daughter's action, a warm current surged in his heart, he slightly nodded, although he didn't say anything, but the corner of his mouth was almost split to the root of his ears, his face full of happy smiles.

Afterwards, Qianqian quickly tore off another chicken leg and put it in her own bowl, then began to eat with "ba wa ba wa ba wa" sounds, that appearance was like a child who hadn't eaten delicious food for a long time, every bite was especially hard, a large amount of juice surged in her mouth, the taste was indescribably wonderful. And the chicken meat had no dry feeling at all, instead it was very chewy, chewing was very satisfying, faintly one could smell a faint lotus leaf fragrance, as if this chicken meat was slowly stewed under the wrapping of lotus leaves, adding a unique fresh fragrance.

Just at this time, the other chicken was also successfully taken apart, Yan Wang seeing this, hurriedly tore off a chicken leg and put it in Yue Yi's bowl, Yue Yi hurriedly waved his hand saying: "Fourth Young Master, you eat, I can eat other things, this chicken leg should be left for you." Yan Wang smiled and shook his head, saying: "Brother Yue Yi, there is another chicken leg, you eat too."

Speaking, Yan Wang then skillfully tore off another chicken leg, the movement was done in one go, as if he was already used to this kind of thing. An Wang's eyes full of love flashed with light, he quietly sat there, eyes full of gratification. Looking at his children eating with relish, cheeks rosy, a surge of indescribable satisfaction rose in his heart. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth, his thoughts couldn't help drifting to the distance, recalling the tender appearance of the children when they were young, now they have all grown up, understanding the importance of sharing.

When An Wang and Yue Yi were seventy percent full, they tacitly put down their chopsticks, gazes focused on the other two little guys. Qianqian's small exquisite mouth kept chewing, cheeks puffed out, like a cute little hamster; while Yan Wang ate more elegantly, looking like a young master from a prestigious family. Time passed slowly, until Qianqian and Yan Wang ate until their bellies were round, unable to eat anything else, then they stopped their movements, patted their little bellies contentedly.

At this time, Yue Yi gently stood up and waved to outside the door, after a while, Xiao Er hurriedly came. Xiao Er said with a smiling face: "You don't need to pay, the proprietor instructed that people from An Wangfu don't need to pay for meals." An Wang heard this, a trace of doubt arose in his heart, he curiously asked: "Who is your proprietor?" Xiao Er respectfully answered: "Young Master Yan Si." An Wang suddenly realized, it turned out this wine shop was opened by Yan Si.

Qianqian heard this, excited almost jumped up, she excitedly said: "It's Second Brother's wine shop, great! In the future can Qianqian come here to eat without spending money?" Xiao Er smiled and nodded, answering: "Yes, Second Young Master specially instructed this." Hearing this news, An Wang also showed a gratified smile, he knew Yan Si's character well, very satisfied with his arrangement.

Afterwards, the group under the gaze of Xiao Er, slowly stood up, walked out of the wine shop. An Wang gently stroked Qianqian's head, saying: "Full?". Qianqian said: "Stuffed~" eyes flashing with joy. They boarded the carriage, slowly left, leaving behind a scene of laughter and joy.
