Chapter 263: Chapter 264: Dirty Things, They Don’t Eat Chapter 263: Chapter 264: Dirty Things, They Don’t Eat Third Uncle Xu looked up and saw the group of foreigners, excitedly tugging at Xu Ying, “Yingying, what you said really worked, these foreigners were indeed attracted here.”
Although he didn’t understand what the foreigners were saying, Third Uncle Xu was very sure in his heart that they must have been drawn over by their delicious food.
“Right, we are having a free tasting event, would you like to try, um, try so?” Zhou Yi’s foreign language was a bit halting, but he managed to say it completely.
Qian Yuanyuan saw that he could actually speak English, and her face instantly filled with admiration; the man she liked was indeed talented.
One of the foreign won lit up with a smile when she heard she could try sothing. She had slled the aroma from afar and had also seen a big crowd.
She had wanted to co over and see what was going on, but her few girlfriends hadn’t wanted to co.
“Can we still try the food now?” the woman asked curiously, as it seed to her that the stall was already closing up.
Hearing this, Zhou Yi turned to Xu Ying, “Minister, can we still have a tasting now?”
Of course, Xu Ying was willing. The whole point was to do business. If these foreigners liked the food, they might land a big order.
After all, most of the people coming to the country now were here for business.
Xu Ying imdiately set things up again, started the fire, and began to prepare for deep-frying.
Third Uncle Xu also didn’t idle; while Xu Ying was getting ready to fry, he imdiately took so marinated dishes toward the foreign won.
As soon as he brought over the marinated dishes, a breeze blew by, and the scent of marinated duck and pork spread through the surroundings.
The woman who had first asked the question, filled with anticipation from the sll, frowned when she saw the actual appearance of the food.
Such an ugly thing, wasn’t it sothing that people from her place all disliked?
People said Huaxia people were poor, but she hadn’t expected them to be this poor.
In their place, these things would be thrown away, never eaten.
“No, no, no, I don’t want to eat this!” The woman’s face was full of rejection.
It slled good, but it looked too horrifying.
The other foreign won, seeing the food Third Uncle Xu had brought out, imdiately widened their eyes and looked at the speaking woman with full faces of disgust, “Ellie, I told you these people couldn’t have any real delicacies.
The best things in Hua Country are all in the Friendship Building; really, I don’t know what got into you to want to co over here.”
Ellie too was filled with disappointnt; it had slled so nice.
Third Uncle Xu, unaware of what they were discussing, still enthusiastically held the food out to them.
One tall woman, full of anger, directly slapped the food to the ground.
Third Uncle Xu watched as all the food was knocked onto the ground, a hint of pain on his face, which quickly turned to anger, “What do they an by this?
If they don’t want to eat, then don’t eat, but to imdiately knock the food to the ground.”
Looking at the marinated at on the ground, Third Uncle Xu sadly picked it up.
The tall woman, seeing this, wore a face of mockery, “See? These people even eat this filthy stuff that falls on the ground; who knows how dirty the food they make must be.”
Both Zhou Yi and Yang Nan understood English, naturally, they also understood what she had said, their faces turned steel blue, eyes filled with fury.
Qian Yuanyuan and Qiao Yuzhu, with faces full of curiosity, turned their heads to ask Zhou Yi, the one who knew English, “Zhou Yi, what are these foreigners saying?”
Unable to hold back his anger, Yang Nan walked over to the group of foreign won, “Are all you foreigners this rude?
You wanted to eat these yourselves. If you don’t like it, then don’t eat; what’s with this act?”
The tall woman had never expected Yang Nan to confront her directly, nor had she ever suffered such humiliation. In her family, their prestige was imnse, and others were always careful not to offend her.
Now, seeing such a small Huaxia person eating sothing that even their slaves wouldn’t touch,
it was clear to her how lowly this person’s status was. And yet, she dared to criticize her. She truly had too much nerve.
“The lowest class in our country wouldn’t eat these things, and yet you dare to try to fool us with them. Where is the courtesy of you Huaxia people?
This matter must be apologized for, or else we will go to your leaders to see how you treat your distinguished guests,” the tall woman pressed aggressively.
Ellie tugged at her sister, “Sister, let it go. It was our fault to begin with.”
Upon hearing her sister’s words, the tall woman felt a surge of anger, fury burning in her eyes. She raised her hand and struck Ellie across the face, “You shut your mouth.
Ellie, do you know what you’re doing? Are you actually siding with these poor people and saying it’s our fault?
Before the might of power and wealth, the poor are always wrong.”
This had always been the philosophy of their family.
Yang Nan believed that n should never hit won, but now, seeing the arrogant deanor of this foreigner, he felt like punching her himself.
Xu Ying slowly approached, her beautiful eyes looking at the woman, with an air of politeness, “Indeed, we Huaxia people are not as wealthy as you, but we have manners.
We don’t go around asking others for food. If you don’t want to eat, you can just say it, instead of laying a hand on the one offering you the al.
To put it bluntly, that’s being an ingrate; to put it nicely, it’s being arrogant and dismissive.”
“You, you, you~” The tall woman was so furious she couldn’t speak a word.
Qian Yuanyuan was shocked, “Xu Ying only has a high school education, and yet she can speak fluent English, just like her!”
Qiao Yuzhu was also sowhat surprised; this girl really should not be underestimated.
She had originally thought that this girl had gotten the favor of the Magic City Food Factory solely through her culinary skills, but now she felt that perhaps she had been shortsighted.
To garner the favor of two factory directors, she must have sothing exceptional about her.
Wearing a smile, Xu Ying said, “We are holding a free tasting event, but if you don’t want to eat, you don’t have to co. We do not insist.”
Ellie, feeling sowhat guilty, looked at Xu Ying. It was she who had insisted on trying the food, and now it was she who had changed her mind, subjecting them to her sister’s insults.
Tears welled up in her eyes, “I’m sorry, really sorry.”
Xu Ying shook her head; she guessed that Director Li of the Magic City Food Factory was probably waiting for her to make a big fuss over this.
Currently, they were not yet fully fledged, and if they made a big issue out of this with the foreign guests from Shanghai, the leaders in charge of foreign affairs would naturally not want to offend these foreigners, and they would beco the sacrificial lambs.
So of course, she couldn’t play into Director Li’s hands.
However, there was still plenty of ti, and so things could be handled slowly.
“Let’s pack up and go back,” Xu Ying said to the others.
Ellie still felt sowhat remorseful and wanted to say sothing, but her sister Ai Ning yanked her clothes. Before she could lash out, an unexpected guest arrived.
“Oh my gosh, I’m not too late, am I?” A fair-skinned woman with an excellent figure, blond cascading waves, and running with such grace, as if a sprite in motion, approached from the distance.
For a mont, Xu Ying was dazzled; they said foreigners were good-looking, with nice skin, high noses, and big eyes, and now this woman might be the most beautiful she had ever seen.
“Pretty girl, are you hosting a tasting event?” Angel ran over quickly, her eyes sparkling at the sight of the remaining braised duck and pork that had not yet been put away.
Before she could lay a hand on it, Ai Ning, with a face full of shock, stopped her, “Angel, you can’t eat that.
Didn’t you see? It’s that dirty stuff. Plus, it fell on the ground.”
