Chapter 112 Charcoal Grilled King Crab
Xu Bai looked at the time on his watch, then looked up, looking at Su Meng who was standing in front of him, who was pretty wearing a white down jacket, with a fat baby face.
Well…
Just ten minutes ago, Su Meng suddenly called Xu Bai who was browsing the game mall at home, saying that he would be at the gate of the community in ten minutes.
When Xu Bai received the call, he thought he had misread the time.
result…
eight thirty?
"Didn't you say before that it might not end until around ten thirty in the evening?"
"yes."
"Then why..."
Xu Bai was a little curious. The most important point was that the location he had booked with Lao Niu was at 10:30. Suddenly he came so early in advance, and Lao Niu's barbecue restaurant might have no more seats.
Not right.
There should be still time.
Xu Bai recalled that when he just came down, he glanced upstairs in the direction of Laoniu Barbecue Restaurant. There were not many people going to eat barbecue, and the tables outside the store had not yet been set up.
In fact, it wasn't just him who was curious about why it was so early.
Su Meng was also very curious about this.
"I don't know either. In the past, when I celebrated my birthday, there was no one that could end before half past ten."
"Then this time?"
“My mom says this time is different.”
But when Su Meng asked, Su Ruyu didn't say anything.
And it wasn't just this one thing that made Su Meng curious.
"By the way, master!"
Su Meng thought of the weird gifts this year, and said to Xu Bai as a funny thing: "Master, you don't know, the gifts they gave this year are also weird."
Xu Bai looked at Su Meng.
Su Meng immediately took it as a joke, and told Xu Bai that those people not only gave gifts to themselves, but also their parents, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and seven aunts and eight aunts. .
This has never happened before.
After Su Meng finished speaking, she looked at Xu Bai: "Are you saying it's amazing, master, it's never been like this before."
Xu Bai smiled and squinted his eyes: "It's quite amazing."
Don't think about it.
This must be another moth created by Lao Fu and Lao Huang.
These two old guys.
Xu Bai was a little speechless, he had already asked Wang Qiang to run over to warn the two of them, but it turned out that the two of them were fine, and the guests returned it to them, but what is the difference between what you did and what you did before?
The previous approach was to distract the guest.
Bringing gifts along the way at the door, this anti-customer nature is obviously worse, okay?
Xu Bai had a headache, looked at Su Meng: "By the way, Mom, don't you have any comments."
Su Meng shook her head: "No, what's wrong."
It’s fine if you don’t have any comments.
Although Su Ruyu is not his mother-in-law, it is unlikely to become his mother-in-law.
But Su Ruyu is the mother of his apprentice after all, and she is also the big boss of Fengcheng Commercial Bank. From the perspective of pure interpersonal relationship, it is better not to offend if she can.
Xu Bai thought so in his heart.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a barbecue."
"Um."
Su Meng's face was full of joy and anticipation, and she nodded heavily. Compared with the tens of thousands of seafood meals prepared for her at home, she was more looking forward to the barbecue that her master invited her to eat for a hundred dollars.
"Master."
"Um?"
"There shouldn't be many people tonight."
"not much."
Xu Bai shook his head and said: "When I came here just now, I took a look, and there were not many people."
Su Meng nodded and said oh.
soon.
Xu Bai led Su Meng to the door of Lao Niu's barbecue restaurant.
Next second.
Xu Bai was dumbfounded.
Su Meng next to her couldn't help but also opened her mouth wide, and looked at Xu Bai: "Master, this is what you define, there are not many people?"
Xu Baimei's heart skipped a beat.
At this moment in the barbecue restaurant, there are not many people like Liao Wu whom Xu Bai just saw on the corridor.
into the eyes.
Lao Niu's barbecue shop is not only full of customers, even the entrance of the shop is full of people who come to eat barbecue.
Looking around, there is almost no place to step down.
but…
There is a very strange place.
In the center of the crowd at the entrance of the store, there is an empty table with no one seated.
is right in the middle.
Real main table.
Well-deserved C position.
It seems that these people who come to eat barbecue are blind, and they don't see such a good central location.
But someone saw it.
"Master, look quickly, there is one last table."
"..."
Su Meng saw it, her eyes lit up, fearing that she might not even get the last seat, she hurriedly dragged Xu Bai towards the empty table.
Su Meng didn't seem to notice it at all, but happily waved her hand: "Boss, come quickly, order!"
The words fell.
Old Niu seemed to be waiting in the shop for a long time, with a smile on his face, he trotted all the way to the table of the two.
Xu Bai didn't speak, but just watched Lao Niu's performance silently.
He seriously doubted whether someone had tipped off the news when he just went downstairs to pick up Su Meng, so, while he was picking up Su Meng, these neighbors who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement came here to occupy seats up.
No other.
Xu Bai just glanced around with his corner of the eye. Everyone here is counted as one, and the youngest one is above fifty years old and lives in the old neighbors of the old factory.
And he is already sure that he knows who the whistleblower is.
Xu Bai squinted his eyes, his gaze passed over the shoulder of the old cow who had a flickering expression, avoiding his eyes, and landed on the person sitting on the corner table with his head down, lowering his sense of existence as much as possible.
Wang Qiang lowered his head and muttered silently.
"Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me."
"...Master."
"Um."
Xu Bai wrote down Wang Qiang in his little notebook, came back to his senses, looked at Su Meng who was speaking, and said with a smile: "What's wrong."
Su Meng handed the menu to Xu Bai: "Master, do you still have charcoal-grilled king crab?"
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.
Charcoal Grilled…
King crab?
You are an old cow who specializes in cheap barbecue, when will you be able to import such high-end ingredients.
Xu Bai listened to Su Meng's words, took the menu and looked at it, and then, looking at the five words shining brightly on it, he also looked at Lao Niu with some puzzlement: "Charcoal grilled king crab?"
Lao Niu has a serious expression: "Yes, I just joined."
said.
The old cow coughed.
Xu Bai smiled happily.
at this time.
On a table next to him, the fifty-two-year-old, but stylishly dressed Old Wang with a bullet head said, "Lao Niu, didn't you say that anyone who celebrates their birthday will be given a king crab? Where's the king crab?"
Birthday, send?
Su Meng caught the key words, and her eyes lit up.
The corner of Xu Bai's mouth twitched.
He knew what Lao Niu was playing.
After listening to Lao Wang's words, Lao Niu turned his head and shouted at Lao Wang, "Shut up, your birthday is too early, you think I don't know."
Su Meng raised her hand smartly: "Well, boss, it's my birthday today, do you have any gift?"
Old Niu turned his head back and looked at Su Meng suspiciously.
"You, today's birthday?"
"Uh-huh."
"Is it true or not, do you have any proof? If it's your birthday, I'll give it to you. Don't worry, I'm an old cow, and I'm as good as I promise."
"Yes, I have my ID card."
Xu Bai didn't speak, just crossed his arms and looked at Lao Niu expressionlessly.
One pair, come, let me watch your performance.
Su Meng spoke quickly, and then found the small bag behind her, opened the bag, found her identity from it, and handed it to Lao Niu.
"Boss, look, this is my ID card, look, today is my birthday."
"It really is."
Old Niu took the ID card half-believingly, looked at Su Meng's date of birth: "November 21, 3064 in the federal calendar, today is really your birthday."
Su Meng looked sincere, and took the ID card handed back by Lao Niu: "Boss, I didn't lie to you, today is really my birthday."
Old Niu patted his chest: "No problem, I will give you King Crab for my birthday, sure, don't worry, I will add it to you!"
Su Meng's face was full of joy: "Great, thank you boss."
The old cow smiled, turned around and walked towards the inside of the shop.
Su Meng turned her head to look at Xu Bai behind her, and blinked: "Master?"
Xu Bai's eyes fell behind him, and there was the table where the famous old lady of Jiuchang Street had fallen. Just now, after Lao Niu loudly said Su Meng's birth date, he saw that the old lady of Jiuchang took out the paper and With a pen, I drew circles on it from time to time.
And the old lady sitting at the same table with the Jiuchang witch, and the five aunts sitting at the same table are all well-known matchmakers in Jiuchang Street.
Through the hands of these five matchmakers, those who made a good marriage, not to mention the whole Fengcheng, just in Jiuchang Street, have a glorious history of more than a thousand couples.
A witch.
Five matchmakers.
Hiss!
Xu Bai took a deep breath inwardly.
What are they doing?
Xu Baigang was about to get up and run to find out, when he heard Su Meng's voice, he turned his head, looked at Su Meng's eyes, and smiled, "What's wrong?"
Su Meng looked around at the dark crowd and said in a low voice, "Master, there are a lot of people."
Xu Bai hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Lao Niu's barbecue shop has always been doing very well."
never mind.
Family ugliness should not be publicized.
Xu Bai thought for a while, but he still didn't tell. These people can't say 90%, but they can say 100%. Except for their table who came here to really eat barbecue, for the others, one table counts as one. table, not here for barbecue at all.
They are here to eat melons.
and…
What I eat is still the kind of live melon.
Wait for me.
Looking back to settle accounts with you.
Xu Bai squinted his eyes, smiled and chatted with Su Meng, and then began to daydream in his heart, waiting for tomorrow, how to repay these people for eating melons.
