"Okay, where should we eat?"
Su Feng nodded and stood up.
Seeing this, Zhu Dachang quickly said, "Let's go to the restaurant that my father-in-law just opened!"
Su Feng was slightly surprised and laughed, "Not bad, a new restaurant has opened!"
Zhu Dachang felt even more embarrassed and gestured for Su Feng to lead the way.
The two arrived at a newly opened restaurant on the street, and the waiter at the door immediately started calling out to them.
After all, the employees naturally knew their boss's son-in-law.
"What would you two like to eat?"
The waiter asked with a smile.
"Just bring a few of your signature dishes!" Su Feng waved his hand and said casually.
"Zhu Dachang, your father-in-law's business is booming!"
Su Feng looked around at the restaurant's decor.
Although he thought the decorations were outdated, they were actually quite nice by today's standards.
Zhu Dachang coughed twice, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
At this moment, a pretty girl dressed conservatively went up to the second floor.
"Fatty!"
The girl greeted Zhu Dachang happily.
"Ah Zhu, you're here too!" Upon seeing her, Zhu Dachang quickly stood up and asked shyly.
"Yes, Dad's restaurant just opened, so he's been quite busy. I came to help out!"
Ah Zhu smiled and nodded.
The two looked at each other, both with shyness and bashfulness.
Ah Zhu was naturally a little reserved. She turned to look at Su Feng and quickly said, "Young Master Su, you've come too!"
Su Feng smiled and nodded.
"Then please enjoy your meal. I apologize for the poor hospitality; I'll go help out!"
Ah Zhu said somewhat shyly.
"It's alright, you just go about your business!" Su Feng waved his hand.
Zhu Dachang watched Ah Zhu walk away, his eyes filled with reluctance.
Seeing this, Su Feng smiled. Love in this era is mostly mutual and very pure. Even when faced with temptation, people rarely lose their temper.
Soon, many signature dishes were served on the table, and the two of them began to eat heartily.
"The food at your father-in-law's place is pretty good!"
Su Feng commented.
The food at that time was all natural. As long as the kitchen did a good job, it tasted great. Moreover, it was all cooked with firewood, which made it taste more rustic and homey than the food in later generations.
"Yes, business has been very good these past few days!"
Zhu Dachang nodded quickly.
Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out downstairs, attracting many of the diners.
Downstairs, Ah Zhu was being lewdly harassed by a short man.
Ah Zhu poured tea for the dwarf, but the dwarf was very unruly, touching Ah Zhu's hand and enjoying it immensely.
"Ah Zhu, you look even more beautiful after just a few days!"
The short man chuckled, his face full of sleazy glee.
"Watch your step!"
Ah Zhu wanted to say something, but remembering that this was her father's restaurant, she couldn't cause trouble, so she could only whisper a rebuke.
This only emboldened the short man, who grabbed Ah Zhu's hand and said lewdly, "What's wrong? It's been a few days. Don't you miss me?"
"No, don't talk nonsense!" After breaking free, Ah Zhu made up an excuse to leave.
Zhu Dachang watched this scene angrily, and when he saw Azhu come up, he hurriedly went up to ask her what was wrong.
"Are you alright, Ah Zhu?"
"fine!"
A-Zhu forced a smile and went to pour tea for the new guests.

Chapter Thirty-One: After repeated taunts, Su Feng sees through the old man's scheme; Zhu Dachang challenges him to a duel.
Seeing Ah Zhu's eyes filled with tears, Zhu Dachang was filled with anger and stared intently at Young Master Shi downstairs.
"It's that fat bastard again, always getting in my way, such a nuisance!"
Young Master Shi also saw Zhu Dachang, and neither side was willing to give way, both feeling extremely displeased.
The white-haired old man drinking tea nearby also turned his head to scrutinize Zhu Dachang!
"It's him, otherwise I would have already slept with Ah Zhu. Master Zhou is eager for me to become his son-in-law."
Young Master Shi took a sip of tea, looking rather annoyed.
Just as Ah Zhu came to refill Su Feng and the other man's tea, Zhu Dachang stood up and asked, "Don't go yet, I'll go find him!"
"No, you can't argue with him. Dad will be unhappy!"
Ah Zhu stopped her.
"Ah Zhu, I'm treating Young Master Su to dinner today. Don't worry, I'll reason with him. How could we possibly argue? After all, we were betrothed since childhood, it's perfectly legitimate!"
Zhu Dachang comforted him, took the tray, and carried the tea to Master Shi's table.
Su Feng also tilted his head slightly to look at this scene. Although he had guessed it before, seeing is believing, and many things are not necessarily as he knew them!
……
As soon as Master Shi saw Zhu Dachang approaching, he began to sniff him incessantly.
"Why does it smell so bad? What's going on?"
Young Master Shi said in an annoyed tone.
Upon seeing this, the black wizard revealed a mocking smile and sneered, "Young Master Shi, the people have arrived!"
Young Master Shi seemed somewhat surprised before turning his head.
"Young Master Shi!"
Zhu Dachang suppressed the heat in his stomach and patiently called out once.
"I have something I want to tell you!"
"Oh, I see. Please have a seat!"
Young Master Shi's eyebrows twitched, but his contemptuous expression remained unchanged.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Dachang didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly.
"You really do smell!"
Young Master Shi took a sniff, a mocking expression on his face.
Zhu Dachang suppressed his anger and started chatting with Young Master Shi.
However, the two sides had long disliked each other in secret, and the more they talked, the more hostile the atmosphere became.
"Oh, I flirted with your wife? That's hilarious. Look at your wife, other people are flirting with her too. Why is it rape when I flirt, but nothing happens when others flirt? I think you're an idiot!"
Young Master Shi said with great disdain.
"Hey, let me tell you, if you keep doing this, I won't be so polite!" Seeing Young Master Shi's appearance, Zhu Dachang became even angrier.
"You son of a bitch, what are you? Don't you even know how to look at yourself in the mirror? You're warning me, why should I let you sit down just to give you face? Otherwise, who do you think you are!"
Young Master Shi stood up and said in a loud, disdainful voice.
Ah Zhu, who was standing nearby, hurriedly came over with a smile to appease Young Master Shi and advised Zhu Dachang to leave first.
However, at this moment, all the guests stood up and gathered around. Someone said, "Let's have a fight and see who's stronger. I'll marry whoever is stronger!"
The crowd cheered and made a fuss, completely ignoring the commotion.
Seeing this, Ah Zhu hurriedly told Zhu Dachang to leave.
Zhu Dachang glared at Young Master Shi with annoyance, then left with the tray.
Before leaving, the black wizard stuffed a black cloth bag into Zhu Dachang's pocket.
Su Feng watched this scene silently, a cold smile creeping onto his lips.
……
"I'm so angry, Young Master Su! Do you think I'll ever get richer and richer?"
Zhu Dachang returned feeling very depressed and couldn't help but ask.
"Of course you can, but you need to work hard and find a good direction, then you can succeed!"
Su Feng smiled and nodded, patted Zhu Dachang on the shoulder, and casually took out the thing that the black wizard had placed there.
Suddenly, the black wizard tossed an insect into the teacup and gave Young Master Shi a meaningful look.
Young Master Shi immediately understood and said, "Fatty, Fatty, come here, come here, and see what this is!"
