Fifty miles west of and Cang County, there is a Linjiang Pavilion, according to the construction of the river, only the green stone base will be as high as ten feet, the building has nine floors, more than ten miles in a radius do not see other buildings, only this building stands alone.
Climb the building looking north, visible Mangshan peaks and peaks, to the south can be viewed the river flowing east, the weather. Therefore, since the literati linger, the heroes of the rivers and lakes to wine and sing, it is the most prestigious restaurant of the 8,000 miles of the Canglan River.
Linjiang Pavilion eight floors above, a brocade court dress beautiful woman reclining window, leaning on the rail support, infinite laziness. The beauty of the beautiful eyes flowing waves, looking at the river from afar, seems to be full of hope.
"Miss ah, you don't look at it, is not just a few days late to come it, who is not a little thing well, look at you this look forward to wear the look."
Pink maid said with a smile.
"Hey ...," the brocade-clothed beauty sighed sadly.
"This time is not a few days, is ten days ah, really a heartless."
The pink-clothed maid put down the tray in her hand, and laughed gently, "Those who don't know also think that you are thinking about your lover, well, hurry up and use some pastries, breakfast has not been eaten yet."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes, however, did not look at it, just looked at the maid and said, "Xiao He, do you think something happened to him?"
The pink-clothed maid pretended to think: "It's hard to say, I heard that there is a group of bandits roaming around these days, so don't run into Xiao Lang."
Brocade beautiful woman look anxious: "Oops, indeed so, this can be how good ..." she suddenly like to remember something: "Those bandits are not specialized in picking young women to start? Xiao Lang should be fine."
Pink maid said: "This group of people is really ferocious, I do not know why, where this area of more than twenty years of age of young women to see a young face to kill one, causing panic. But you don't have to worry, Xiaolang is not a girl, it will be fine."
The brocade-clothed beauty rubbed her eyebrows, "That's good, but you said why he hasn't come yet."
Pink-clothed maid said: "How should I know, well, Xiaolang has something delayed, it's unlikely that he will arrive today and tomorrow, Miss, it's better to eat something quickly, all starved and thin."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes helplessly propped up her body, flicked a piece of sour date cake but then put it down: "How are today's visitors?"
"Good, downstairs seven floors are full, only the ninth floor is still empty."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes nodded: "That's good, the ninth floor doesn't need to be opened easily, everything is done according to what Xiaolang said."
"I know, I know, Xiao Lang is right about everything, okay."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes stretched out a spring onion-like long and white finger to point at the maid's forehead angrily: "You this girl, more and more unruly. Even I dare to tease."
The pink-clothed maid spat out her tongue, "How would I dare to ah, small lotus this is not the truth."
The brocade-clothed woman lifted her hand and poured a glass of wine: "Xiao Lang is indeed a genius, do you know why my Linjiang Pavilion has ranked ninth in the world in half a year, and is one step away from being one of the top eight?"
The pink-clothed maid jumped over and said, "Of course I know, Miss, you've said it a hundred times. My Linjiang Pavilion relies on four dishes, one soup and one pot of wine."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "This four dishes, a soup and a pot of wine can be the handwriting of the little Lang, how to operate is also the little Lang instructions, they say that the gentleman is far away from the kitchen, but you say that the world how to have such an interesting young man?"
The pink-clothed maid said, "Xiaolang said that we are not far from the eight great families, with Xiaolang's guidance, perhaps at the end of the year selection, we can be shortlisted."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "The world's eight restaurants, each extraordinary, I this heart ah, really some apprehension."
The pink-clothed maid said, "What are you worried about, we can have the Canglan River fisherman."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes spread her face and smiled, even like a hundred flowers bloomed.
"That the world's first building Taibai residence can also have a dragon river above the fishing Lang it."
Pink girl said: "Yes, Taibaiju has been the world's number one restaurant, has long been renowned, some years ago suddenly launched a poem a seat, is known all over the world."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "You ah, can you know the origin of this matter?"
Pink girl said: "Of course I know it, Tai Baiju originally not called Tai Baiju, according to legend, one day on the Dragon River, a flat boat downstream, the fisherman boarded the building, even tasted eleven dishes, greatly dissatisfied, and then presented a poem and a seat, the big proprietor was surprised by the heavenly beings, but I do not know why the young man had to be hundreds of years old renamed as Tai Baiju."
Brocade beautiful woman nodded and smiled: "not bad, the gift of that young fisherman, the name of Taibaiju not a few will be spread throughout the world, a seat of nine hundred and ninety-one dishes, all for the delicacies and flavors, an unprecedented poem recited in the world, the literati and the military men and women do not aspire to it. That's why it's not that easy to be among the eight great masters."
The pink-clothed maid, however, was full of energy: "But Taibai Residence doesn't have wine ah, our roasted knives can be called the world's best wine, in fact, ah, in Xiaohuo's opinion, our Linjiang Pavilion and Taibai Residence is only one poem short."
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes laughed: "You, you have more heart than I do. Do you know that since the Great Zhou, although the world's literary style has flourished, but that one poem is written in wine, I'm afraid that the world will be hard to match."
The pink-clothed maid suddenly blinked her eyes, "Miss, you said that both the dish and the poem came from that Dragon River Fishing Lang, both are fishing lords, could it be the same fishing lords?"
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes froze and smiled meaningfully, "I'm afraid that there is no such coincidence in the world that there are two such fishermen at the same time? Our little Lang ah, who knows ..."
Pink-clothed maid said: "I'm not asked him well, he is laughing, also do not answer, angry people teeth itchy."
The brocade-clothed woman lost her smile: "Silly girl, sometimes do not say is actually the answer it."
Suddenly, the pink-clothed maid jumped up, pointing out the window and shouted, "There's a boat, miss look, a small boat!"
The beautiful woman in brocade clothes was stunned, and scrambled to get up and ran to the window, holding the rail and looking into the distance.
Only to see that the river a flat boat leisurely from the west, vaguely visible on board a person with two oars.
"It's Xiao Lang!" The beautiful woman in brocade clothes was pleasantly surprised: "It must be Xiaolang."
"Aiya! This fellow has finally come, I'll go get it!" The pink-clothed maid immediately carried her skirt and ran downstairs in a flurry.
Little Miss Lotus ran all the way and knocked over two fellows, causing the crowd of diners to be greatly surprised. To know this lotus girl age although cardamom years, is Linjiang Pavilion two shopkeeper, but all familiar customers who know, today but do not know why so panicked.
Coincidentally, a young girl in green clothes came out, saw the situation can not help but knit up her eyebrows: "small lotus, so bold and disorderly what behavior!"
The pink-clothed maid saw this and spat out her tongue, but her feet didn't stop and only said, "Xiaolang is here."
The green-clothed girl first froze, then lifted up her dress, and even ran no slower than the pink-clothed maid.
"Where? You wait for me ..."
All diners running hall look at each other, lotus girl has always been clever and intelligent, lively and active, so it is not surprising, but this green girl as a big shopkeeper, but is famous for its ability and stability, did not think that it is also like the lotus girl general.
A flat boat, just docked, hemp-clothed teenager has not yet gotten up, will hear a cheerful voice shouted: "Xiao Lang, Xiao Lang, fast up!"
The teenager looked up and grinned, "Sister Qing, Sister Lotus."
"How did you get delayed for so many days this time, miss is anxious to death." As soon as Xiao He pulled the teenager's wrist, she dragged him inside.
"You slow down, Xiaolang hasn't stood still yet." The green-clothed young girl snapped.
"Ee?" The girl in small lotus suddenly saw that the teenager actually had three gourds tied around his waist.
"Xiaolang, what are you doing here, gourds?"
The teenager was none other than Jiang Fan, grinning, patting the gourds on his waist, "Packed with goodies, thanks to you remembering the story of the gourd children."
Little Lotus girl's eyes light up: "Is it hard to be good wine?" Saying that, she wanted to reach out and grab it.
Jiang Fan gently slapped her little hand away, "You can't move it, this thing will be bad if you open it."
Little Lotus girl bristled: "Che, petty."
Green girl said: "Well well well, small lotus don't make a fuss, quickly go in, small Lang all the way hard, first go up to see the proprietor."
Jiang Fan then in the bystander's strange eyes, was two girls pulled straight up to the ninth floor.
"Strange!" One of the diners put down his chopsticks, "Isn't this eighth floor the proprietor's residence, where no guests are served? Who is this young gentleman that he asked the two shopkeepers to personally welcome him to the eighth floor?"
"My guess is that it might be the owner's clan brother ...," said a diner.
Only that old bookkeeper, see this smile but do not say, low head counting.
