Upon seeing that the guests had flipped through the menu without ordering anything, the waiter assumed that there wasn't anything that caught their fancy; thus, he smiled and said, "If our honored guests are unsatisfied, we have other secret dishes that our restaurant serves. Let me name a few to see if you like them."
After swallowing his saliva, the waiter rapidly listed several dishes, his tone varied and pleasing to the ear. Zhang Xiaohua was amazed at how unique this restaurant was - even listing dishes sounded like singing. However, upon asking the price of one of the dishes, his enthusiasm immediately deflated, as the secret dishes were much more expensive than the ones on the menu.
Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up as he asked, "Waiter, how do you charge for plain rice here?"
The waiter, slightly surprised, answered, "The plain rice is free."
Hearing that, Zhang Xiaohua was delighted and exclaimed, "Great! Bring me five big bowls of plain rice!"
