Fortunately, these two ladies did come to the store to eat, rather than just passing by to look at the flowers as Xu Yinxin had guessed.
They ordered all the signature dishes in the store, and Xu Yin couldn't help but remind them: "Actually, our dishes are quite generous."
"Hahaha..." He Siting laughed heartily, "We ordered more, shouldn't you be happy?"
…”
I’m worried that you won’t be able to finish the food and waste it, and I won’t be happy either.
Jiang Yunru returned the menu to Xu Yin and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, someone will come over soon."
A quarter of an hour later, two more ladies did arrive. The first thing they said when they entered the door was: "Aru, why did you put the dining venue here? This is just an ordinary small restaurant. How can it be as delicious as the private restaurant I recommended?" "
However, when the signature dishes of the restaurant were served one after another, the two ladies who arrived later could not express a word of disdain.
Xu Yin: This is the charm of food!
After eating, Jiang Yunru and the other two were not in a hurry to leave. They sat and drank tea for a while and chatted for a while. He Siting also packed two portions of lemon chicken feet and said she would take them back to her husband and daughter to try.
Jiang Yunru looked at her sister-in-law with a smile and said to herself that her appetite was whetted by the box of lemon chicken feet brought back by her son. Most of her sister-in-law's family would become regular customers of this store like her.
Xu Yin settled the bill for them and brought them the receipt and packaged lemon chicken feet. Jiang Yunru stopped her:
“Little girl, I’ve wanted to ask you for a long time, where did you buy the flowers and spices in front of your store? They are in good condition.”
Xu Yin smiled and replied: "I grow it myself for fun. I have a lot of it after decorating the yard, so I moved a few pots to the shop. If you like, you can pick a pot and take it away."
"Then I'm welcome." Jiang Yunru said jokingly, "I moved the most beautiful pot away. You won't cry in distress when you look back, right?"
Xu Yin didn’t care about a pot of flowers, so Asha waved her hand vigorously and told her to go ahead and pick it.
He Siting burst out laughing: "My sister-in-law runs a flower shop at home and has her own planting base outside the city. She really wants a pot of flowers from you. She just wants to make you a friend. When the time comes, It’s easy to share tips on growing flowers.”
Xu Yin: “…”
Sisters, you are teasing me!
Jiang Yunru stopped teasing her, took out a business card from her exquisite handbag and handed it to Xu Yin: "Come, let's leave our contact information and invite you to my planting base tomorrow."
“Leave me a phone number too.” He Siting took out her mobile phone. “Next time I come to eat, I will contact you in advance and you can save a seat for me. Remember to tell me if your store has new dishes later.”
Have you heard that you still get this kind of treatment? The other two ladies also took out their mobile phones and added Xu Yin as friends.
However, the three of them just wanted to eat for convenience and save the money of having to wait for a table when they come. However, Jiang Yunru really wanted to exchange her flower-growing experience with Xu Yin.
No, after adding a friend, Jiang Yunru would sometimes send her some newly arrived flowers in the store. When Xu Yin was interested, she would ask the girl in the store to bring a bouquet to her when she went to deliver flowers nearby. .
As a courtesy, Xu Yin would also give her a pot of flowers that she had successfully cultivated, and occasionally she would bring side dishes or snacks that were convenient for delivery.
On this day, Jiang Yunru called and asked Xu Yin if she was free on Saturday.
"The old master at the base has cultivated a batch of double-petaled desert roses. There happened to be a customer who wanted to buy two pots as gifts. I will take time to go there on Saturday. Do you want to take a look? If you want, I will pick you up." Xu Yin Of course it was good. She had grown desert roses before and had flower seeds, but this was the first time she heard of double desert roses.
Xu’s father heard that she was going to the flower planting base with the owner of the flower shop to enjoy the flowers, so he made her some snacks and side dishes suitable for eating on the road.
Xu Yin also baked some cookies, milk-flavored bread slices and other desserts.
On the morning of Saturday, she used an extra-large kettle to fill a pot full of refreshing scented tea suitable for summer. She carried a light bag and a double-layered picnic box and set out.
Jiang Yunru drove to pick her up. When he saw what she was carrying, she couldn't help but be happy: "What a little girl! This is my territory, why can I still miss you for a flower tea and snacks? Why bother to prepare so hard?"
“Have you had breakfast?” Xu Yin handed her a rice ball, “I made it myself with salted egg yolk and pork crispy rice balls.”
“Did you make it yourself? Then I have to try it.”
Jiang Yunru has indeed not had breakfast yet. She usually gets up late and usually has to wait until around ten o'clock to eat breakfast. Today she has to go out. She got up before eight o'clock. After washing up and putting on light makeup, it was time to go out. She didn't even think about it. I can't afford breakfast.
Unexpectedly, the little girl paid more attention to health care than she did at such a young age. Not only did she bring her breakfast, but she also made a pot of scented tea.
The lid of the kettle was just a simple water cup. Xu Yin poured her a cup and kept it cool next to it.
Jiang Yunru ate half of the rice ball and drank a cup of scented tea, then started the car and set off. There was only half of the rice ball left, which she said she would save for later at the base.
“I usually eat breakfast late,” she explained, “but I thought you students don’t like breakfast very much. My son often eats three wrong meals, stays up late at night and can’t afford to wake up during the day. His biological clock is even more chaotic than mine. "
Xu Yin said with a smile: "Maybe we have a serious cook in our family. The first thing my dad does when he gets up every morning is to make breakfast. He can tell at a glance whether I have eaten or not. If I don't eat, he will keep nagging me. It’s not over.”
Jiang Yunru laughed: "That's true. I would choose to eat it, so I don't have to listen to the nagging."
The two chatted all the way, talking about whatever topics came to mind.
Jiang Yunru was very emotional about this: Although the girl is young, she is very knowledgeable and can talk about any topic. Especially when it comes to planting flowers and plants, it can be said to be endless.
Xu Yin’s evaluation of her is the same. Even though they are more than twenty years apart, there is no generation gap in communication.
This is probably what is called “like-mindedness”!
Unknowingly, we arrived at the planting base on the outskirts of Beijing.
For the first time, Jiang Yunru felt that time passed so quickly, and she felt that she had arrived not long after she set off. In the past, every time she went to the suburbs, it was too far. If it weren't for the precious land in the city, why would she drive outside the city?
“Yinyin, I really like chatting with you. Why do you have so many thoughts and ideas? If I get to know you earlier, maybe we can become partners.”
On second thought, he added: "It's not good to be a partner. We can't even be friends if we have a quarrel! I think it's better to be sisters for a longer time. Isn't it popular now to be best friends? How many years am I older than you? If you don't mind, just call me Sister Ru, please don’t call me Aunt Jiang.”
Xu Yin laughed and said, "Okay, sister."
The two became known as sisters.
