Financial freedom begins in Vietnam

Upon hearing this, it does seem somewhat plausible.

Enjoying a meal while listening to live music, coupled with the antique-style, upgraded farmhouse decorations, creates a truly immersive atmosphere.

Chen Junhe has now gotten used to being served meals by others.

Therefore, I don't feel uncomfortable in a situation where someone is sitting next to me playing an instrument while I am enjoying my food.

However, Pei Shirong was quite different from Chen Junhe. She was not used to being served meals, and even less used to the feeling of eating while others watched her.

So her gaze shifted back and forth between Chen Junhe and the girl playing the moon lute.

"Ah Rong, this is someone else's job. You have to respect it. They earn their living this way."

Seeing Pei Shirong's uncomfortable expression, Chen Junhe had no choice but to comfort her on the spot, and decided that if the girl still couldn't let go, he would...

After dinner, you should try to persuade her properly.

Pei Shirong actually took Chen Junhe's words to heart.

Perhaps it was Chen Junhe who told her that others made a living this way, which made her feel that by eating well, she was also helping others make money.

So she obediently started putting food into Chen Junhe's bowl.

The first dish that caught my eye was the peacock spring roll. This dish sounds very fancy, and it is indeed very fancy.

This dish uses a pineapple as the body and a bright red carrot to carve the head and tail.

Fried spring rolls are placed inside pineapples. Unlike other fried spring rolls, these spring rolls are made with very thin rice noodles for the outer skin. After frying, they are crispy but not hard, and the filling inside is also very rich in flavor.

You can tell from the taste that all the fillings are very fresh.

Perhaps this is the true essence of so-called royal banquets: food made with the freshest ingredients, as long as the chef doesn't mess things up, will generally taste pretty good.

What's more, today's head chef is a descendant of the so-called royal chefs of Vietnam.

So, while the spring roll with thin rice noodles dipped in fish sauce wasn't particularly amazing, it was basically worth the price of the meal.

"These spring rolls taste good; they're fried very crispy."

Chen Junhe nodded, then glanced at Pei Shirong, who was still serving herself food, and casually stuffed a spring roll into her mouth.

No one knows how her mother raised Pei Shi Rong, but now when it comes to meals, Pei Shi Rong always chooses to feed Chen Jun He first before eating anything herself.

She is capable, knows how to serve others, and eats very little.

Basically, one meal from Chen Junhe is enough for her to eat for three days.

I'm so grateful to have met a girl like that, and I must thank heaven and earth, and thank my mother-in-law from afar.

Ruan Huangmingyu, who had eaten some food along the way, also began to frantically serve food to Chen Junhe.

After all, with the example of Da Mi Fan, she liked this man even more than Pei Shi Rong, but she didn't serve Chen Jun He as selflessly as Pei Shi Rong.

Perhaps it's because of her surroundings; she hears and sees more, and her sense of self is much stronger than that of a simple girl like Pei Shirong.

However, after her heart was completely devoted to Chen Junhe, she couldn't help but imitate Pei Shirong and serve Chen Junhe.

After trying the same dishes one by one, Chen Junhe became even more convinced that this was an upgraded version of a farmhouse meal.

The only significant difference was the bowl of Hue beef noodles.

Compared to the traditional light beef pho in Hanoi, Hue beef pho has a richer flavor.

The broth is rich and the spiciness is distinct.

For Chen Junhe, who can handle spicy food, this Hue beef pho is more to his liking than the usual Hanoi rice noodles.

Besides that, another dish that Chen Junhe found somewhat unique in taste was the Phoenix Meat Pie.

This meat pie, made by wrapping minced meat in an egg crepe, has a very rich and layered flavor.

The second layer even has some bean curd residue.

The tail end is filled with pickled carrots and wood ear mushrooms, creating a layered texture and a very rich flavor.

The menu is extensive, but the portion sizes for each dish are not very large.

Pei Thi Rong and Nguyen Hoang Minh Ngoc did not eat much; they put most of their food into Chen Junhe's bowl.

Fortunately, there was a whole lemongrass roasted chicken, which was enough for three people.

However, although Tran Thi Dung and Nguyen Hoang Minh Ngoc had been serving Tran Tuan Ha meals, they were not very resistant to desserts.

The rouge cakes inside were dyed with natural plant dyes, resulting in vibrant colors and delicate shapes, which were well-liked by Bui Thi Dung and Nguyen Hoang Minh Ngoc.

Women, being visual creatures, are perfectly embodied in these pastries.

So Chen Junhe basically divided the rouge cake between the two of them and ate it all.

While the three of them were enjoying their meal, the girl who played the moon lute must have been ready when she stood up and said in a sweet voice, "Please enjoy your meal, guests."

He then left the private room with his lute in his arms.

With no outsiders around, Pei Shirong felt much more relaxed.

"Ah Rong, after we finish eating, we'll go buy you a moon lute, so you can play it for me at home from now on."

Chen Junhe could tell that Pei Shirong was eager to get her hands on the moon lute in the hands of the performing girl.

According to Pei Shirong's own account, she must have practiced this instrument for many years.

Chen Junhe naturally fully supports this kind of artistic hobby.

On the way back after dinner, I'll go buy a new two-stringed zither for Pei Shirong.

Imagine sitting on the rooftop at home, drinking coffee or green tea brewed by Nguyen Hoang Minh Ngoc.

Beside her, Bui Thi Dung, dressed in an ao dai, was gracefully playing local Vietnamese music.

It's quite interesting to inject a touch of art into life.

"Ayu, what talents do you have?"

Thinking this, Chen Junhe turned to ask Ruan Huangmingyu, who was standing next to him.

"Brother He, I don't play any musical instruments. If we're talking about talents, does singing while holding a big microphone count?"

Nguyen Hoang Minh Ngoc smiled so hard her eyes narrowed, like a little fox smirking.

She knew more about this than Pei Shirong, and after the plastic wrap was removed, she was evolving into a little train driver.

"Ayu sings beautifully when she holds the microphone."

Some uninformed Pei Shirong even said a good word for Ruan Huang Mingyu.

The result made Chen Junhe and Ruan Huang Minh Ngoc both burst into laughter.

This left the simple-minded Pei Shirong completely bewildered.

This meal completely shattered Chen Junhe's expectations for Vietnamese cuisine.

The so-called Hue Royal Banquet was just a fancy and abundant feast, but the gimmicks outweighed the substance.

It's somewhere in the middle, not quite as good as some, but better than others.

It was a rather refined meal.

However, it's still worth coming to experience and see for yourself; you've learned a bit more useless knowledge.

When Pei Shirong returned to the silverware street after dinner, her phone suddenly rang.

She suddenly became a little nervous and looked at Chen Junhe expectantly: "It's a video call from Mom."
