Chapter 306
The arrival of Meng Guangzhu and Qu Lan made the courtyard more lively.
They rested for two days, and Meng Haisheng drove them around Beijing.
"Dad, Mom, this is the restaurant I opened. Let's have lunch at the restaurant today."
Meng Haisheng had no classes at noon, so he drove them to Zuitaoyuan for lunch.
Standing at the magnificent gate of Zuitaoyuan, Meng Guangzhu and Qu Lan were both stunned.
Meng Haisheng mentioned to them on the phone that he opened two restaurants in Beijing.
Both of them thought that the restaurant opened by Meng Haisheng was the kind of roadside restaurant they saw in Quyang County.
Now the magnificent restaurant was in front of them, and they were so surprised that they couldn't say a word.
"Haisheng, where do you get so much money to open a restaurant? Although our rabbit farm has made a profit this year, the money is not much."
Meng Guangzhu was very nervous, fearing that Meng Haisheng would learn bad things after coming to Beijing.
The courtyard he lives in and the car he drives are so rare in Quyang County that they dare not even think about it.
Meng Haisheng can make so much money in such a short time, Meng Guangzhu is very nervous.
"Dad, don't let your imagination run wild. I opened two second-hand TV stores in Beijing."
"Beijing has a large population and many rich people. The business of these two stores is very good. The money to buy this restaurant is earned from the TV business."
Meng Haisheng took the stunned Meng Guangzhu and walked into the restaurant.
"Today, I will let you taste the skills of our chef Ming. His ancestors were royal chefs."
Meng Guangzhu and Qu Lan, who were dizzy, were arranged by Meng Haisheng to go to the private room.
There was a family dinner at noon today, and Meng Haisheng also called Lin Jiangchun and Su Yayin.
"Mom and Dad, please sit down for a while. Mu Cheng and I will go order the dishes first."
"Okay, you guys go ahead."
After coming out of the private room, Lin Mu Cheng tugged at Meng Haisheng's sleeve.
"Haishen, why don't you let Mom and Dad order the dishes?"
"I'll let them order the dishes. Today, we can only have porridge."
Meng Haisheng's lips curled up slightly, with a smile on his face.
The two elders have been farmers all their lives, and they usually grow their own vegetables at home.
If they saw that a plate of ordinary stir-fried vegetables costs 80 cents or 1 yuan, they would definitely not be willing to eat it.
After all, most of the vegetables in the vegetable market are only a few cents per pound, and the most expensive is only 10 cents.
As for roast duck, Buddha jumps over the wall, etc., they are afraid to eat them.
So Meng Haisheng took the initiative to order the dishes himself.
"Well, Mom and Dad have worked hard all their lives, and now they have finally made it."
Lin Mu Cheng stepped forward and held Meng Haisheng's hand. They have also been working hard for so many years, and now they have finally made it.
"Let's go. What do you want to eat? You don't have to be polite to me in our own restaurant. Eat boldly. I'll pay."
Meng Haisheng looked rich and powerful, which made Lin Mucheng laugh.
When the two went to order food, they happened to meet Shi Rongjin, who also came to the restaurant with his secretary.
"Uncle Shi, you are here."
Meng Haisheng went up to greet Shi Rongjin enthusiastically.
Although he beat Meng Changyue very well, Shi Rongjin didn't say anything to Meng Haisheng to stop.
This made Meng Haisheng's favorability towards Shi Rongjin increase a few points.
"Haisheng is here too. Do you have no classes today?"
"Yes, my parents are here. I'll take them out for lunch at noon."
"Not bad, you are quite filial and you haven't forgotten your roots."
Meng Haisheng smiled and chatted with Shi Rongjin for a few words, and then let him go quickly.
After all, it was inconvenient for him to talk in the lobby on the first floor because of his current position.
After Shi Rongjin left, Meng Haisheng went to the bar to ask.
"Manager Lu, who did Mr. Shi have dinner with today?"
With Shi Rongjin's current position, the person who could have dinner with him would definitely not be an ordinary person, but Meng Haisheng didn't receive the news, which made him angry.
Generally, when a big leader comes to dinner, he, as a boss, has to show up even if he is very busy.
"Boss, Mr. Shi came with his family. Today, we invited several old people. It's a family dinner, so I didn't tell you."
"Oh, family dinner, who are you inviting?"
"Mr. Tao, and another one is their comrade-in-arms, Mr. Qin."
Hearing what Manager Lu said, Meng Haisheng probably guessed that today should be a dinner for the Shi family to apologize to the Tao family.
After all, Meng Changyue, this rubbish, is living with Tao Meiling and preparing to get engaged.
Now that he has suddenly caused such a thing, the Shi family must give an explanation to the Tao family.
"Use my name to send a few special dishes to their table. For a table of old men, try to use less oil and sugar in the dishes and recommend more light dishes."
"Understood."
Meng Haisheng talked to Manager Lu for a while and repliedLin Jiangchun and Su Yayin had already arrived in the private room.
In the past, when the two of them went to Quyang County to meet Meng Haisheng and Lin Mucheng, they came and left in a hurry, and did not sit down with the two elders of the Meng family to have a good meal.
This is the first time that they have sat down to eat together like today.
"My dear relatives, it is not easy for you to come to Beijing. You should stay for a few more days and let Haisheng take you around. There are still many attractions in Beijing."
Lin Jiangchun looked at Meng Guangzhu, who was a little restrained, and spoke to him enthusiastically.
"Yes, we have wanted to come to Beijing for a long time. Tomorrow is Saturday. Haisheng has no classes and said he would take us to see the flag raising."
"That's great. When you come to Beijing, you have to go to see the flag raising."
Lin Jiangchun used to have a prominent family background and studied abroad when he was young.
Meng Guangzhu was born and raised in a farmhouse. After a few days of school, he could only recognize a few daily words.
The two seemed to be completely unrelated and had no common topics to talk about, but they were chatting enthusiastically during the meal, and even felt that they had met too late.
"I will teach you how to grow chili peppers later. I guarantee that your tongue will be spicy after eating one bite."
"That's great. I'll plant a few in the flowerpot. Pick one to taste when you are hungry."
Seeing that the two were chatting well, Meng Haisheng was relieved. He was really worried that the family would have nothing to talk about when sitting together.
Su Yayin and Qu Lan sat together to discuss knitting sweaters for the four children.
Both of them were dexterous. They had only eaten half of the meal, and they had already agreed to go buy wool together another day, choose patterns, and knit sweaters for the four children.
The family had lunch happily.
Meng Haisheng was going to drive first to send Meng Guangzhu and Qu Lan back.
Just as he walked to the door of the restaurant, he happened to meet Mr. Shi and his friends coming out of the restaurant and getting ready to get in the car.
"Grandpa Shi."
Meng Haisheng went forward to talk to Grandpa Shi. After all, it was he who dealt with Meng Changyue and ruined the marriage between the Shi and Tao families.
"Just now you added a lot of new dishes to our table. I appreciate your kindness."
"It's all my duty."
Grandpa Tao on the side looked Meng Haisheng up and down.
"We are really old. Young people nowadays are more energetic than when we were young."
Grandpa Tao was still very grateful to Meng Haisheng.
If Meng Haisheng hadn't dealt with Meng Changyue, these things would have been exposed after Tao Meiling and Meng Changyue got married.
At that time, Tao Meiling would not have been able to get out as easily as now.
