At six o 'clock in the evening, Song Chaoyang came out of his office and said, "Xiao Rui, we won't be eating at the cafeteria tonight. Let's go to a special restaurant for a change." Li Rui guessed that he was feeling bored and wanted to take the opportunity to go out and relax. He said boldly, "I'm clumsy and I don't know how to talk. You must be bored eating with me. Why don't I find someone to relieve your boredom and ask her to treat you? " Song Chaoyang was in a very bad mood today and only wanted to relax and relax. He was very happy when he heard this and thought that this kid had good eyesight and was very considerate. He asked, "Oh, who do you want to ask to treat us?" Li Rui said, "Director Zhang Mingfang from the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau. She knows how to talk and is very good at relieving boredom. I'll ask her to tell you some interesting anecdotes about cultural relics. "Song Chaoyang said," Okay, I'll leave it to you. I'll go back and prepare. "
When he went back into the room, Li Rui called Zhang Mingfang and told her his idea.
Zhang Mingfang was surprised and happy. She said coquettishly, "Aiyo, my good brother, why are you so good to me? Where are you now? I really want to kiss you. Hee hee." Li Rui did not have any bad intentions towards her and did not continue to tease her. He said, "I'll leave it to you. There's no need to be too extravagant. However, there are two conditions. One is that it has to be special and the other is that it has to be secluded." Zhang Mingfang said, "It's winter now. We should eat more mutton to nourish our bodies. There's an old Beijing mutton hotpot restaurant on Guanmiao Street. They use charcoal hotpot and the taste is very good. Why don't we go there? I just don't know if Song Shuji likes hotpot hotpot. "Li Rui said," Wait here. I'll go in and ask. Don't hang up. "He walked into the inner room.
Song Chaoyang heard Li Rui's inquiry and immediately smiled. He said, "Director Zhang's suggestion is very similar to mine. Think about it. Sitting next to Guanmiao Temple, eating traditional charcoal hotpot and drinking some wine, it must be very delicious."
Li Rui smiled and immediately returned to his office. He picked up his phone and said to Zhang Mingfang, "That's settled then. We'll go there right now." Zhang Mingfang's words, "Brother, don't be in a hurry. Give me two minutes to put on makeup." Li Rui almost burst out laughing, but he understood her thoughts. He said, "Just make it simple and elegant. There's no need to put on too much makeup." Zhang Mingfang said, "Okay, okay. See you later."
After the phone call, Li Rui ran to the secretary's office and borrowed a car. When he returned to his office with the keys, Song Chaoyang was already ready. He hurriedly tidied up, picked up his briefcase, and went downstairs with him.
After getting into the car, Li Rui said, "Boss, I have a few bottles of wine at home. Although it's not as good as Maotai Wuliangye, it's not bad. Why don't I go home and get it?" Song Chaoyang said, "No need to trouble yourself. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. We'll drink whatever liquor they have in that restaurant. "Li Rui said," Haha, okay. I'll drink with you later. "He drove out of the Municipal Party Committee and headed to Guan Temple.
Zhang Mingfang's house was very close to the Guan Temple, so when Song Chaoyang and Li Rui arrived a quarter of an hour later, she was already waiting at the entrance of the shabu shabu restaurant. Speaking of which, it was strange. During the day, the sun was shining brightly, but at night, the sky was actually scattered with small snowflakes. The so-called snow grains were snow particles that were a little smaller than snowflakes. There was a poem that described this feeling: "What is the similarity of white snow? Sprinkled with salt, the difference in the air can be imitated."
After Song Chaoyang got out of the car, he looked at the towering silhouettes of the buildings in the Guan Temple and then looked at the snowflakes floating in the air. He spontaneously felt a sense of emptiness in his heart and couldn't help but laugh.
Zhang Mingfang, wearing a long dark blue down jacket, came over with a slight smile on her charming face. Her jacket was open, revealing a white sweater and black trousers, as well as a pair of high-heeled ochre pointed leather boots. She smiled and nodded at Song Chaoyang, saying, "Thank you, Secretary, for coming tonight." Song Chaoyang had seen her before and had already seen her beautiful appearance. But tonight, under the influence of that unique state of mind, he suddenly found that she was more beautiful than before. There was also an indescribable smell on her body. His mood instantly brightened up and he said with a smile, "You're welcome. There's no Secretary here tonight. I'll call you Mingfang and you can call me Chaoyang. "
The three of them chatted for a while, then under Zhang Mingfang's lead, they walked into the restaurant and entered a secluded private room at the innermost part.
After sitting down, Zhang Mingfang personally stood up and poured tea for Song Chaoyang. Li Rui gave her a chance to show off. When she was about to pour tea for him, he hurriedly grabbed the teapot from her hand and said, "Sister Zhang, please take a seat. I'll pour tea for you." As he said that, he poured tea for both of them.
Zhang Mingfang looked at him with a smile, then turned to Song Chaoyang and said, "This is an old Beijing Shabu Shabu Restaurant. It has been open for more than a hundred years." As expected, Song Chaoyang was greatly surprised and his eyes widened, saying, "Oh?" Seeing that he was interested, Zhang Mingfang continued, "The owner of this shop has the surname Hai. He is a descendant of the Manchu royal family. It is said that he is the descendant of Aisingioro Schulhaci, Nurhaci's younger brother. More than a hundred years ago, he fled from the south of the capital and settled down in Qingyang City to avoid the war. Back then, the head of the Hai Family used to work in the imperial kitchen and was good at cooking. Therefore, after coming to Greensun City, he started a meat cooking business. He didn't expect that his business would be so successful that it became a famous dish in Greensun City. The biggest feature of this shop was that everything was in its original state. Take the mutton, for example. The mutton they use is the original state of the sheep raised by the farmers in the mountains. They have completely abandoned the sheep that grew up on animal feed. Moreover, the ingredients used are all carefully selected and processed by themselves. The sesame paste, chives, and sugar garlic are all concocted or pickled by their own secret methods. The taste is pure and the aftertaste is long. I guarantee that you will come back again after trying it once. "
Song Chaoyang chuckled and praised, "I didn't expect Mingfang to be so familiar with the history of this shabu shabu restaurant. It seems that you are a regular customer here." Zhang Mingfang smiled modestly and said, "The main thing is that this shop is an old name in Greensun City. Out of professional habit, I always inquire more about it every time I come to eat here. Speaking of which, this shop's name can totally apply for a city-level famous brand trademark. " Song Chaoyang laughed and said, "You're still calling me Secretary?" Zhang Mingfang laughed and said, "I'm embarrassed to call you by your name." Song Chaoyang said, "Then just call me Song Dage." Zhang Mingfang cheerfully called out, "All right, Song Dage, let's order some meat."
Li Rui got up and walked out of the private room to call the waiter. The waiter handed the menu to Song Chaoyang and prepared to record it.
Zhang Mingfang took off her down jacket and folded it neatly, placing it on the chair beside her. She walked to Song Chaoyang's side and pointed at the delicacies here to recommend to him. Song Chaoyang's body was so close to hers that he could feel the warmth of her body. He could also smell the faint fragrance of a girl coming from her body. He also saw her slender, snow-white fingers. His heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but look up at her. Zhang Mingfang smiled sweetly at him in response.
Li Rui saw this scene and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the boss wouldn't be as depressed as he was in the afternoon.
The three of them ordered two plates of fat lamb, a plate of fat beef, a large platter of various vegetables, as well as snacks such as fish balls and crab sticks. They also ordered a bowl of sweet garlic and two bottles of locally produced baijiu. That was all they ordered.
After the waiter left, a male waiter quickly came into the private room with a steaming copper hot pot and placed it on the table. The copper hot pot had already been filled with the base ingredients. There were garlic cloves, ginger slices, wolfberries, and so on that could be recognized. The male waiter also brought in a large pot of broth and poured it into the hot pot. He then covered the pot with the copper lid. The preparation work was done and the meat dishes would be ready to be cooked in a while.
At this time, the snow outside was obviously heavier. Looking out the window, with the help of the street lights outside, one could see snowflakes fluttering in the sky. There were tens of millions of snowflakes falling. The night was getting darker and it was quieter outside.
While Zhang Mingfang and Song Chaoyang were chatting happily, Li Rui received a call from Yuan Jingjing. It wasn't convenient for him to answer in front of the two of them, so he walked out of the private room to answer the call.
Yuan Jingjing, the fierce and unruly female boss in the past, was gentle and well-behaved today. The moment she came up, she said sweetly, "Are you coming tonight?" Li Rui said softly, "Of course I'm going. After I finish eating with the boss, I'll immediately rush over to accompany you." Yuan Jingjing said, "What are you guys eating?" Li Rui said, "We're eating hot pot, charcoal hot pot. But the meat dishes haven't been served yet, so we haven't cooked them yet." Yuan Jingjing said, "You're making me want to eat." Li Rui said, "That's hard to say.
I'll wait for you. "After hanging up the phone, Li Rui didn't immediately return to the private room. Instead, he deliberately gave Zhang Mingfang and Song Chaoyang a chance to be alone. He didn't care what they talked about, as long as they were happy.
