Thank you readers!
Wei Ting helped the “sick” Su Xiaoxiao onto the ship.
The two of them sat down by the window.
The boss of the pleasure boat smiled and served tea. He said to Wei Ting, “The bass is fattening now. The two of you came at the right time. Two big basses just arrived in the morning.”
“Bass is their signature dish.” Wei Ting placed the filtered tea beside Su Xiaoxiao and brought her cup to her. “Steamed is the best. Stewed soup is not bad either.”
The boss of the pleasure boat looked at Wei Ting’s actions with surprise.
Su Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hands and watched Wei Ting make tea.
“Then let’s have a steamed one.”
He was good-looking and his hands were good-looking.
It was pleasing to the eye.
The boss of the pleasure boat smiled and glanced at the couple, unable to hide the smile in his eyes.
“What are you smiling at?” Wei Ting asked.
The boss of the pleasure boat could not help but laugh. “This is the first time I’ve seen Young Master Wei so happy.”
Su Xiaoxiao said strangely, “Is he? How can I tell that he’s happy? He keeps a straight face all day as if someone owes him money.”
Wei Ting snorted.
The owner of the pleasure boat did not disturb the two of them anymore and smiled as he prepared the food.
Su Xiaoxiao had nothing to do. She walked around the pleasure boat and met the lady boss who was wiping the railing.
The lady boss was a talkative woman and was more talkative than the boss of the pleasure boat.
From her, Su Xiaoxiao learned that Wei Ting was a frequent guest of this pleasure boat. As long as Wei Ting was in the capital, he would come once or twice a month.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGradually, everyone knew that this pleasure boat was under the protection of the youngest son of the Wei family. No one dared to cause trouble anymore.
Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, “What does it mean that no one dares to cause trouble again? Could it be that someone has caused trouble in the past?”
“Yes,” the lady boss said with a smile. “It happened a few years ago. My man and I aren’t local to the Imperial City. We spent all the savings we had saved up over the years and bought this pleasure boat from someone else.”
They came with beautiful expectations, but unfortunately, business was never as simple as it seemed.
Without power or influence, it was almost impossible to snatch business from a bunch of people with connections.
In particular, their dishes tasted really good and there were many repeat customers, so it made people even more jealous.
Su Xiaoxiao thought of the days when she fought with Jin Ji in town. It was not difficult to imagine their situation.
“Once, a few guests came up to the pleasure boat and ordered a large table of good dishes. We were overjoyed and thought that there was a big business coming. In the end, halfway through, one of the guests collapsed. They insisted that our food was unclean and someone died after eating it. They raised their weapons and wanted to smash our pleasure boat.”
“What happened next?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
The lady boss looked in the direction of the room. Wei Ting seemed to be drinking tea casually, but the lady boss had long noticed that his gaze had never left this little fat girl.
The lady boss smiled and said, “Young Master Wei was also on the boat at that time. He wasn’t with those people. He was in the next room with a friend. He came out to help us out.”
She said it casually, but the scene back then was not so easy.
There was also a considerable force behind that group of people.
Wei Ting was not afraid of them, but there was really no need to offend them for two unfamiliar commoners.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “He’s very righteous!”
Alright, she would give him respect outside.
In the room, Wei Ting drank tea and smiled.
Su Xiaoxiao learned from the lady boss that she was the first girl he had brought over. The lady boss had never seen any girl beside him.
Su Xiaoxiao muttered to herself, “That’s right. There’s no other woman. He already has three sons. ”
The bass was steamed.
Su Xiaoxiao returned to the room.
The boss of the pleasure boat chose a larger bass. The fish scales, gills, and internal organs were removed very cleanly. He used yellow wine and ginger slices to remove the fishy smell. The taste of the soup was not strong, and it preserved the freshness of the fish to the greatest extent.
Su Xiaoxiao took a bite and was stunned.
Wei Ting picked up the tenderest fish belly and placed it in her bowl.
Usually, at home, she would give the three children the fish belly.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t reject someone’s feeding and buried her head in her food.
The fish meat was really fresh.
She couldn’t tell that this guy was quite the food connoisseur.
Not long after, the boss served another bowl of hot sour soup fishballs.
Tiny ginger grains could be tasted in the fishballs. They were spicy. This milky white fishball was mixed with a small amount of fat and starch. The gravy was extremely tender. The only flaw was that it was a little greasy.
However, with the spicy ginger grains and the white vinegar soup, the greasy taste was instantly gone.
She could make a basin of such fishballs!
The boss of the pleasure boat had seen many rich young ladies who refused to eat much. This was the first time he had met someone who really came to eat. He was excited. Not only did he steam fish cakes and slices of fish, but he also set up a grill and made a plate of grilled fish.
“Do you have vegetables?” Wei Ting asked.
“Yes, yes, yes!” The boss of the pleasure boat stir-fried two side dishes and cut the melons and fruits. In the end, he even served his unique secret fruit brew.
This kind of fruit brew was very difficult to make. He only produced two small jars every year and did not sell them.
He was not selling the fruit brew today.
“It’s for the two of you,” he said with a smile.
Wei Ting said, “Why didn’t you send it in the past?”
The boss of the pleasure boat said awkwardly, “Uh… isn’t Mrs. Wei here…”
This was the first time Su Xiaoxiao had been called Mrs. Wei. She was stunned.
“Oh,” Wei Ting muttered vaguely. In the end, he did not mind that the boss of the pleasure boat was only willing to offer wine today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe fruit wine tasted sweet and greasy.
When Su Xiaoxiao was on her third sip, Wei Ting took the wine cup.
Su Xiaoxiao was dissatisfied. “What?” Wei Ting said calmly, “You can’t drink anymore.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked in confusion, “Why?”
Wei Ting hesitated for a moment before saying, “You drank too much last time.”
Su Xiaoxiao snorted. “So what if I drank too much? Did I do anything to you?”
Wei Ting said nothing.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “No way… Did I really do something to you?”
She had no impression of it at all!
After transmigrating, she had only drunk once, and she had been tricked by Su Yuniang then…
Wei Tings eyes flickered.
Alright, Su Xiaoxiao had an answer.
Su Xiaoxiao leaned back in her chair in disappointment. “It’s too much of a loss… I’m at a disadvantage…’
Wei Ting was confused. “What did you lose?”
He was the one who was taken advantage of. Shouldn’t he be the one at a disadvantage?
Su Xiaoxiao said bitterly, “When you eat something, you have to taste if it’s salty or bland. I clearly did something to you, but I don’t remember. Don’t you think this is a loss?
Wei Ting paused and silently returned her glass.
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.
The fruit brew made by the boss of the pleasure boat was not really strong wine. It was similar to old rice wine. Su Xiaoxiao was still as sober as before after three cups.
The boss of the pleasure boat came over to ask how the two of them were eating. Su Xiaoxiao was extremely satisfied.
Wei Ting said calmly, “The fruit brew isn’t good.”
The boss of the pleasure boat was dumbfounded.. What was wrong? Wasn’t your wife drinking quite well?
