Chapter 41 The Best State Banquet Maotai
On this day, Ye Nan, who was at work, received a call from Li Xiaoyang's father Li Weidong. He enthusiastically invited Ye Nan to have dinner together. Ye Nan also had something to talk to Li Weidong about Xiaoyang, so he happily agreed.
After get off work, I called Ye Wei and said that I would not go home for dinner if I had something to do, and then I came to the imperial Chinese and Western Restaurant on time.
The waiter at the entrance of the Royal Western Restaurant politely opened the door for Ye Nan and said with a smile: "Sir, welcome! Do you have a reservation?"
It was the first time Ye Nan came here, so he smiled and said, "Victoria!" The waiter was obviously stunned when he heard this, but soon smiled sweetly with a more respectful smile: "It turns out that you are Mr. Li's guest. Please come with me. Mr. Li is already waiting for you!"
The waiter enthusiastically led him into the interior. Ye Nan thought as he walked: "Li Weidong doesn't know what he is doing, it seems that he is quite familiar with this restaurant!"
However, he didn't think much about it. The first time he came here, he looked around while walking. The environment here is really good, the decoration is very stylish, much better than ordinary Western restaurants, and it is worthy of being one of the top local restaurants.
While he was still thinking about it, the waiter had already taken him to the door of a private room in the innermost area, knocked on the door gently, then pushed the door in, and said respectfully to the person inside: "Mr. Li, your guest is here!" After that, he turned his body sideways and invited Ye Nan in.
When Ye Nan entered inside, Li Weidong had already stood up from the dining table to greet him, and extended his hand enthusiastically: "Doctor Ye is very punctual, come and please sit down!"
Ye Nan walked over with a smile, shook hands with him, and apologized: "Sorry, let Mr. Li wait for a long time!" The two of them were polite for a while and sat down separately.
Ye Nan looked at it and said that Xiaoyang and his mother did not come today. It was a bit strange. Logically, since they were thanking him, Xiaoyang should be present, but he thought about it but didn't say anything.
Mr. Li asked the waiter to start serving the dishes, which was very rich. The two of them served eight dishes. Li Weidong looked at Ye Nan and smiled and said, "What wine do Dr. Ye usually drinks?" "Mr. Li, don't be polite, you won't need to drink!" Ye Nan quickly refused.
Li Weidong was very angry: "Doctor Ye, don't be polite. This man would be indifferent if he eats or drinks. I have a few bottles of Maotai, a state banquet that has been hidden for more than 20 years. How about we do one today?"
Usually Ye Nan only drinks Wuliangye at most. He has never drunk this national wine, not to mention the state banquet Moutai for more than 20 years. When he heard this, Ye Nan felt a little itchy and was not pretentious. He smiled and said, "If you don't drink such a good wine, you really feel sorry for yourself. Mr. Li, don't feel sorry for him."
"If you can come there, Dr. Ye will give me a lot of face. Of course, you have to treat me with good wine!" Li Weidong said generously. After saying that, he waved his hand and explained to the waiter who was still waiting by the side: "Start serve the dishes and ask Manager Liu to bring a bottle of my Moutai."
The waiter agreed respectfully and went out. While she left, she muttered in her heart: "What is this young doctor? He can actually let Mr. Li take out all the precious wine, so he has to be careful to greet him!"
When the waiter went out, Li Weidong looked at Ye Nan and apologized: "I originally wanted Xiaoyang to come with his mother today, but suddenly I received a call from his grandmother. When his grandmother heard that Xiaoyang had recovered from the illness, he was very anxious. Xiaoyang must rush back to the countryside to have a look today, so I am the only one who is with Dr. Ye. Please don't be surprised!"
"It will happen there. The old man will certainly be anxious when encountering such a happy event. It is appropriate for Xiaoyang to rush back. Besides, I am already sorry to have Mr. Li accompany me personally." Ye Nan smiled understandingly and said, "Also, Mr. Li, don't always call me Dr. Ye, this is too disgusting. Just call me Ye Nan."
Li Weidong nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'm not polite. Brother Ye, don't call Mr. Li, Mr. Li, that's all the time to make the guests shout, "How old are I? If I don't dislike him, Ye Nan, just call Brother Li."
The two of them had a polite room, and the dishes had already come. Li Weidong waved his hand and asked the waiter to come out to pour the wine. He picked up the bottle and pointed to the broken label on the bottle and smiled: "This wine, I'm afraid that only my brother has a few bottles in Dongjiang. I'm not willing to take it out for ordinary guests. Today, we two will have a good drink."
When I opened the bottle cap, a strong aroma of wine gushed out along the mouth of the bottle and poured it into the cup. The wine looked very sticky and was worthy of being a good wine that has been around for some time.
Li Weidong picked up the cup: "Come to Ye Nan, thank you for curing Xiaoyang's disease. I'll give you a cup first."
Ye Nan picked up the cup and touched him: "Brother Li is so polite! I'm here to fuck." The two of them sipped down, and Ye Nan felt that the entrance was warm and mellow, and then a hot stream of heat flowed down the wall of the esophagus, with endless aftertaste and sighed: "Good wine."
Li Weidong carried the bottle and filled the wine with the wine, and smiled and said, "Of course it's good wine, but it's not good wine, why do I have the nerve to take it out and eat it? These are all the signature dishes of my dynasty. I asked the chef to cook in person to try how it tastes!"
After hearing this, Ye Nan realized that the dynasty was Li Weidong's property. It seemed that Li Weidong was really a person. Ye Nan was not polite, so he threw his cheeks away and ate. During this period, Li Weidong toasted frequently. Although each person only had half a pound of wine, the wine was quite strong, and the two of them blushed when they drank it.
After drinking and eating, Li Weidong pulled Ye Nan to a small table on the balcony of the private room. The waiter brought a set of purple clay tea sets, and then a beautiful woman in a light cheongsam came up. She skillfully praised her skills in Kung Fu tea, made tea for the two of them, and gently stepped out.
Li Weidong pointed to the teapot and smiled, "This is the best-quality Dahongpao I got from Wuyi Mountain. Although it is not from the only two remaining tea trees, it is not far apart. Come and try it and sober up."
Ye Nan stretched out his fingers and gently picked up a cup. He saw that the tea soup was dark yellow, and a faint fragrance came to his nose, refreshing his heart. He held it into his mouth and turned it into his mouth twice, bitter and sweet. He swallowed it gently. A leisurely tea fragrance rose from the swallow and rushed straight to the top door. Ye Nan felt that even his dizzy head was a little clear. He had no choice but to sigh again: "Good tea! Brother Li has a lot of good things!"
"Haha, my brother is indeed pretty good. When ordinary people arrive here, I really don't want to take it out. In fact, in addition to Mayor Xu and Director Wang of the Provincial Department, only Brother Ye has had this blessing!" Li Weidong laughed proudly.
