After three years of experience, Qi Kangping was very familiar with entertaining guests. Hearing this, he cupped his hands and said, "Dong Hu's family is overly praised. The small shops in this town are not as good as your restaurant in Fucheng."

Mr. Hu waved his hands and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Qi is so humble. The Hu family can open a restaurant in Fucheng only because of you, Yanfu House."

Hu Dongjia is an upright person, and he doesn't mind talking about the fact that Fu Tai Lou made his fortune by relying on Yanfu Lou's dishes. Because of his uprightness, he has attracted the love of some literary enthusiasts.

Hu Dong's family is also very good at being a good person. They specially set up a courtyard in Futai Building in Fucheng to entertain literati and crazy people, so that they can enjoy the scenery while enjoying the delicious food.

Gu Jin'an knew that Hu Dong's family was coming, and there was an old man wearing a toga, with a kind face, and a little fat standing next to him. He narrowed his eyes, and immediately stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Gu Jin'an, a late student, pays homage to Mr. Ouyang."

Ouyang Hu was stunned, looked at Gu Jinan, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are you a descendant of the Gu family who made Linjiang Fu on the Zheng family's painting boat in Jinling Mansion some time ago?"

The aristocratic families in Jinling have a painting boat, and they hold cultural gatherings on the painting boat every year. I heard that Gu Jinan has been there for three years in a row. In the first two years, he was a transparent person and did not write poems or songs. But this autumn at the Literary Society, he composed a Linjiang poem, which was really amazing, and he gained some reputation as a result.

At that time, he traveled to the south of the Yangtze River and was invited by the Zheng family to attend a cultural gathering. He heard Gu Jinan's Linjiang Fu, so he knew about this young man, but he did not expect to see him here.

Gu Jinan nodded: "She is a late student."

Gu Jinan knew that Mr. Ouyang Hu was a food lover, but he never expected that he would come all the way from Jinling.

Ouyang Hu chuckled and said, "We are really destined to meet each other in this rural place. Is this a restaurant owned by your family?"

Gu Jin'an said: "To tell you what sir, it's not that it was my little sister and my cousin who opened the door together. Wan Sheng was just here to help."

Ouyang Hu was born in the Ouyang family. The old Mr. Ouyang who was scolded by Mr. Zhan San for being pedantic was Ouyang Hu's eldest brother. However, Ouyang Hu was not pedantic. Instead, he traveled around Chu because of his love of food.

I heard that Yanfu Tower was run by a few little guys, two of whom were girls. Instead of scolding them for not observing etiquette, I smiled and said, "He is a hero among women."

Then he said: "I heard that Yanfulou is going to eat something called ham today. I came here because of its reputation. I wonder when it will be available for sale?"

Gu Jinan smiled and said: "Mr. Ouyang, please come in. Wan Sheng will have someone serve a plate for you to try."

Ouyang Hu said hurriedly: "It doesn't have to be like this. Although I am a guest, it is clearly written on the invitation that the ham will be auctioned. I can't break the rules and eat the ham first."

Gu Jinan explained: "Mr. Ouyang, don't worry. Although my sister has set the rules for ham auctions, before the auction, guests participating in the auction will be allowed to try the ham for free. After all, the guests have to taste it before the auction, otherwise wouldn't it be Are you fooling the guests?"

Ouyang Hu said: "I see, then please take us to the table."

Then he patted his fat belly and said, "I can't wait to taste the taste of ham."

Gu Jinan smiled and nodded, waving towards Brother Cheng with his hand behind his back. The little guy immediately ran over, raised his head and said: "Grandpa, please come with Brother Cheng. Brother Cheng will take you to get a place." Good location.”

Then he asked: "Grandpa Ouyang, do you want to sit in the private room upstairs or in the front row of the lobby? The private room upstairs is more comfortable, but it is far away from the high platform for the auction, so you may not be able to see the hams on the high platform clearly. Sitting there You can see the ham up close in the front row of the lobby, but there are so many people in the lobby that it can be a bit noisy.”

Ouyang Hu chuckled and said, "I'm not afraid. If it's noisy and lively, I'll sit in the front row of the lobby."

This little guy is very clever and told all the good and bad things about the lobby and private rooms.

After hearing this, Brother Cheng nodded: "Yeah, Brother Cheng knows, let's sit in the front row."

Then he waved to the waiter in the lobby: "Brother Lu Guang, go and move a screen."

"Hey, I'll go right away." After hearing this, Lu Guang hurried to the warehouse to move the screen.

Brother Cheng said to Ouyang Hu: "Grandpa Ouyang, I will put up a screen for you later so that you can block other people's eyes and enjoy the scenery on the screen."

After Ouyang Hu heard this, he smiled from ear to ear. This little guy who looked like a jade doll really knew how to do things. He was very appropriate.

Not long after, Brother Cheng took Ouyang Hu to the leftmost table in the first row: "Grandpa Ouyang, please sit down. I will bring you the ham slices. I know where the ham slices are placed."

Saying that, he ran to the back house.

He ran so fast that Ouyang Hu couldn't even stop him in time.

Gu Jinan was very satisfied with Brother Cheng's performance. After what happened to Mr. Xia, he had lost confidence in the Lu family and did not want Brother Cheng to study with the Lu family anymore. When I was worrying about what kind of husband to find for Brother Cheng, I unexpectedly met Ouyang Hu. It was really fate.

If Mr. Ouyang Hu could like Brother Cheng and teach him for a few years, it would be Brother Cheng's blessing.

Gu Jinan greeted the others: "Fang Juren, Hu Dongjia, Mr. Lin, Mr. Wang San, please take a seat."

Mr. Ouyang Hu was brought by Hu Dong's family, so we should sit at the same table together.

Mr. Hu also talked about his acquaintance with Mr. Ouyang Hu: "Mr. Ouyang likes tripe chicken very much. He thinks the tripe chicken is really delicious. He went to Futai House in Fucheng to eat it several times. I did some accounting in Fucheng. , met Mr. Ouyang, and seeing that Mr. Ouyang loved food, I told him about the ham. Mr. Ouyang was very happy and followed him. "

Mr. Lin and Mr. Wang San were both frequent visitors to Futai House. They were very curious about ham, so Mr. Hu’s family brought them here.

As for Fang Juren, he was a former classmate of Hu Dongjia. Because he was a Juren, Hu Dongjia brought him here to make Yanfu Tower look good.

Not long after, Brother Cheng ran over and brought a plate of ham: "Grandpa Ouyang, try it. This is ham. You don't need chopsticks. It tastes better when you eat it with your hands."

This is what the second sister said.

Lu Peng brought over a pot of wine: "Dear guests, ham will be more fragrant when paired with wine."

Ouyang Hu was a gourmet and couldn't resist delicious food. When he saw the ham and wine on the table, he said: "I've invited you first, so don't be polite."

He is the oldest among these people and comes from the famous Ouyang family, so naturally he will eat first.

Ouyang Hu picked up a piece of ham, smelled it, raised his eyebrows, and saw a fragrance that he had never smelled before. He nodded with satisfaction and put the thin slice of ham into his mouth...

In an instant, a rich and fragrant aroma exploded in your mouth. It was mellow and fragrant, and it was really delicious.

Taking another sip of wine, Ouyang Hu was stunned: "What kind of wine is this? I have tasted all the fine wines in Dachu, but I have never tasted such a fine wine... It's a bit like Jinling wine, like Songhua wine, and there's another It smells of flowers and fruits, what kind of wine is this?"

Ouyang Hu was so drunk that he looked at Gu Jinan and asked.

Brother Cheng raised his hand and said, "I know, let me tell you."
