150: Chapter 150 This Seems to Be Wild Mushrooms 150: Chapter 150 This Seems to Be Wild Mushrooms Having said that, the lady boss slowly exited the private room.
The three won remained silent in the room for a while before Chen Yang suddenly stood up, “I need to use the restroom, I’ll be back soon.”
Li Han glanced at him, then chuckled, “Okay, rember to hurry, otherwise we won’t wait for you when the signature dish arrives.”
“Haha, with you saying that, I really have to hurry.” Chen Yang gave a slight laugh, got up, and walked out.
As Chen Yang left the room, he looked around briefly and located the restroom sign on the wall.
He then followed the arrow and walked into the restaurant’s backyard.
The restaurant was a typical rural courtyard, identical in style to a countryside dwelling.
The spacious backyard not only housed several chickens and ducks but also lots of miscellaneous items.
Chen Yang glanced around and spotted the toilet not far off, then headed straight toward it.
After using the restroom, he washed his hands at the sink.
Just as he finished washing his hands and was about to head back to the private room, the restaurant’s lady boss also ca to use the restroom at that mont.
Upon seeing Chen Yang there, the lady boss imdiately struck up a conversation enthusiastically, “Oh, what brings you here?
The ‘Fresh Mushroom Fish Stew’ for your room has already been served.”
Hearing this, Chen Yang turned around and smiled back, “Ah, just went to the restroom, heading back now.”
With that, Chen Yang was about to leave.
But at that mont, the lady boss suddenly grabbed Chen Yang.
Caught off guard, Chen Yang turned around puzzled, “What’s the matter, boss?
Is there sothing you need?”
The lady boss still wore that smile, but her expression was a bit odd now.
“Tsk tsk, young man, you’re quite sothing, managing to have both Director Li and the Yang Family’s daughter dine with you, really didn’t see that coming.” The lady boss took Chen Yang’s arm, eyed him up and down, and then smacked her lips as she spoke.
Seeing the lady boss’s deanor, Chen Yang couldn’t help but laugh.
“I couldn’t see it either!
Boss, you’re quite observant.
Director Li and the Yang Family’s daughter were instantly spotted by you,” Chen Yang replied with a laugh.
Flattered by Chen Yang’s complint, the lady boss’s smile grew even broader.
“Hehe, no matter how good my observation is, I still can’t figure out your status.
But having the Yang Family’s daughter and Director Li as your dining companions must an you’re no ordinary person.
You’re from the provincial city, aren’t you?” the lady boss speculated teasingly.
“Not from the provincial city, just from this county!” Chen Yang replied.
Upon hearing that, the lady boss furrowed her brows, puzzled, “From our county?
I haven’t seen any rich folks like you around here!”
Chen Yang rely shook his head with a smile, not saying anything further, and then he headed straight back to the room.
The lady boss watched Chen Yang leave with a thoughtful smile, growing even more puzzled.
“Huh?
I am familiar with all the prominent families in the county, how co I don’t rember whose son would be like this?”
The lady boss couldn’t figure it out, but by this ti, Chen Yang was already too far to be called back for more questions.
So she could only shake her head in befuddlent, then turned to go to the restroom.
Chen Yang left the backyard and headed straight back to the private room.
Upon opening the door, he saw Yang Ruoxi and Li Han huddled together, closely sniffing the pot of fish soup in front of them.
“Chen Yang, you’re finally back, this fish soup slls terrific!” Yang Ruoxi said excitedly as soon as Chen Yang entered the room.
“What took you so long, we were almost about to start without waiting for you,” Li Han also glanced at Chen Yang and remarked.
Chen Yang smiled, closed the door behind him, and sheepishly returned to his earlier seat.
“Didn’t do much, just took so ti finding the restroom,” Chen Yang made up an excuse, then turned his attention to the fish soup on the table, “Is this their signature dish?
The River Fish Soup?”
“Yeah!
Chen Yang, just sll it!
It’s really fragrant!” Yang Ruoxi imdiately responded and pushed the fish soup closer to Chen Yang.
From afar, Chen Yang could only roughly discern that it was a pot of fish soup.
Now placed right in front of him, Chen Yang could see it clearly.
He closely examined the fish soup and suddenly noticed several bits of mushrooms floating on top.
“This…
these floating mushrooms?
Are they wild mushrooms?” Chen Yang slightly widened his eyes and turned to Li Han.
“Ah?
Wild mushrooms?” Li Han paused briefly, then also leaned in closer, scrutinizing the mushrooms in the soup, which indeed resembled wild mushrooms.
“It looks like it…
but they are completely broken, so I’m not sure,” Li Han observed the pot of soup several tis, then comnted.
Chen Yang smiled lightly, then picked up a spoon from the table and ladled so delicious fish soup.
“Wouldn’t we know once we try it?”
As he spoke, Chen Yang picked up his bowl and started tasting it.
Seeing this, the two won hurriedly grabbed their spoons and began to sip the fish soup.
“Hmm…
so delicious!” exclaid Yang Ruoxi after one sip, unable to hold back her admiration.
Chen Yang glanced at Yang Ruoxi with a smile but said nothing.
However, his thoughts were the sa as Yang Ruoxi’s—the flavor of the fish soup was indeed very delicious.
Especially the floating mushroom bits, simply amazing.
“Li Han, what do you think?” Chen Yang turned his gaze toward Li Han next to him.
Li Han didn’t respond imdiately; instead, she took a few more sips before nodding, “Indeed, these are wild mushrooms!”
“Ah!
So these are wild mushrooms, no wonder the fish tastes so fresh; it’s the flavor of wild mushrooms,” Yang Ruoxi said, her face showing surprise when Li Han confird it.
She wasn’t one to ponder too much or pay attention to many things.
Thus, she had not noticed that the extraordinary deliciousness of the fish soup was due to the wild mushrooms.
But Chen Yang was different.
From the first glance at the soup, he had analyzed the components of the fish soup.
Seeing the floating pieces of wild mushrooms, he realized that these were the sa mushrooms he was growing.
The three of them had traveled far and happened to eat wild mushrooms, which made them smile at each other.
If they had known they were eating wild mushroom fish stew, why would they have traveled so far?
They could have just gone directly to Lin Tianxia and asked Wang De to prepare a serving.
Chen Yang shook his head with a smile and then bowed his head to continue eating.
So did the two won.
About ten minutes later, the pot of fresh fish soup was completely finished by all of them.
“To be honest, the flavor of this fish soup is still quite good; the chef indeed has so solid skills,” Chen Yang comnted as he put down his chopsticks.
Li Han nodded in agreent, “Mhm, definitely.”
Seeing both of them satisfied, Yang Ruoxi looked gratified, “Of course.
Otherwise, this trip would have truly been in vain.”
“Hehe.”
Chen Yang chuckled, then stood up, “You two rest here a bit.
I’ll go settle the bill.”
As he spoke, Chen Yang got up from his seat to head out for paynt.
But he was stopped by Li Han grabbing his arm.
“Hey, didn’t we agree that this al was a treat to thank you?
I should pay for this al,” Li Han said as she stood up.
“Yeah, Chen Yang, this al is to thank you for healing Grandpa’s illness.
Let sister handle the bill,” Yang Ruoxi chid in from the side.
Chen Yang looked at the two won, smiled and said, “Going out to eat and letting you two girls pay, what does that make ?
I’ll handle it.
If you really want to thank , just pay back after I finish settling the bill.”
With that, Chen Yang left the private room with a smile.
Watching him go, the two won exchanged looks and couldn’t help but laugh.
“I never realized he was so concerned about appearances,” Yang Ruoxi said, covering her mouth and laughing.
Li Han laughed as well, “n are like that.”
Chen Yang walked out of the private room and didn’t go directly to the front desk to settle the bill, but walked toward the direction of the restaurant’s backyard.
In fact, Chen Yang’s insistence on paying wasn’t because he was concerned about appearances.
He just wanted an opportunity to talk to the proprietress about the wild mushrooms they used in the restaurant.
After all, Chen Yang had already cultivated wild mushrooms and planned to expand the greenhouse in the future.
When the ti ca, he could have as many wild mushrooms as he wanted.
Since the restaurant’s signature dish also needed wild mushrooms, why not establish a connection, which could provide more sales avenues in the future?
Holding this thought, Chen Yang made his way to the backyard.
The backyard was very spacious, with only a low washroom and a very small single-story outbuilding that looked like a storage room.
Chen Yang scanned the empty backyard but didn’t see the proprietress.
Thinking she wasn’t in the backyard, he decided to turn around and ask at the front desk.
But just then, a voice ca from that small, separate building—it was the voice of the proprietress.
