Chapter 57 Ancestral House

Regarding dinner, Han Ying and Ye Chen planned to go outside to the restaurant, but the old lady disagreed. What made Ye Chen even more puzzling was that the old lady pulled Han Ying to sit and chat in the living room, but she pushed such a big task as cooking to him alone. It just so happened that Ye Chen's best at only those few home-cooked dishes forced him to have no choice, so he simply downloaded an app that specializes in cooking guidance.

In this way, he learned and sold, and responded to the dazzling array of ingredients. Fortunately, he has a strong understanding and likes the quiet feeling that cooking brings to him, so he can get started very quickly, and because the kitchen in this big house is fully equipped, he actually has a sense of smoothness like a fish in water.

Han Ying couldn't stand it anymore, and the two of them let go of a guest to cook by themselves, which was not polite enough to think about. The old lady just didn't let her, regardless of Ye Chen's orders, and sincerely invited Han Ying to go over to do chores, so she detained her in the living room, and then simply turned on the sound of the TV to the limit. Ye Chen was very well-behaved and never asked for help again.

Han Yinghou leaned forward and asked the old lady: "Our Han family's hospitality is too rude, isn't it a bit of a bully?"

The old lady smiled mysteriously and said, "I did it on purpose, to see if his heart is down-to-earth." This person can reveal his true nature at any time, it depends on whether you look carefully or not. Besides, I'm sick with a body, I'm afraid of infecting you when I cook, and you're a big lady's shelf, and you've always been clothed to reach out and open your mouth, and you want him to do it after all. If you pass, it will have no practical effect except to add to the chaos, but instead share the responsibility for doing badly, and the taste of the food will not be guaranteed at all. - I've eaten his lunch meal, and I'm not hungry for you later. ”

Han Ying bowed and said: "Kong Lao Er has carved this face of yours to the bones, the so-called old and immortal is a thief! Han Ying smiled herself, and the old lady also smiled kindly, Han Ying suddenly thought of the old lady's body, and melancholy flashed, I really hope that this laughter can never leave her, and this moment of joy will always be frozen.

Six dishes and one soup: boiled meatballs, sweet and sour carp, pineapple ancient meat, red stewed hairtail, stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, stir-fried choy sum, and a pot of mountain mushroom soup.

Seeing the dishes with all the color and flavor on the table, Han Ying felt awe in her heart, but she was afraid that Ye Chen would be proud, so she didn't reveal it. She really didn't expect Ye Chen to have this unique skill, not only did she look at him differently. The old lady glanced at her, and she didn't go against her heart. The old lady tasted the chopsticks, "Well, this tastes good, but it's a little lighter." Han Ying, you can also try it. ”

Ye Chen said: "This person is old, he can't eat too much salt, and the amount of salt I put according to the scientific standards formulated by the nutrition community based on the dietary habits and constitution of Chinese." ”

Han Ying put down her chopsticks and said, "Who asked you to make such a delicious meal? My mother is about to cry! Haha—— count your credit this time, the task is completed beautifully." If that's okay, I'm going to start eating!Ah, my index finger is moving. ”

The old lady said, "Wait." If you have food and no wine, what kind of system will it become, and my uncle has been busy for a long time, so why don't you drink some wine?

"Then drink some of the red bars that my unit sends during the holidays. Han Ying proposed, and as she spoke, she got up and brought a bottle of the Junding Villa series. The corkscrew turned around twice, opened, and gave each person a goblet, and each person poured half a glass.

Ye Chen thought to himself that Han Ying's living standard was really high, and the last time he participated in Feng Lin's family banquet, he was not on the stage at all. suddenly thought of the tragic encounter between Gao Yang and Feng Lin, and was in a trance of such a high-standard life.

The old lady saw Ye Chen stunned for a while, and said to Han Ying: "Uncle is a man's family, and drinking liquor is worthy of the delicacies on this table." Go and get out the batch of aging that your dad didn't finish before he died. ”

Han Ying glared and puffed his cheeks and said, "That batch of wine is already moldy and hairy, and you still take it out for guests?"

Ye Chen said: "I'm not a guest. "I thought to myself, I was busy working alone in the kitchen at the time, and I didn't see you treat me as a guest, so how can I let you take wine as a guest this time. I really want to drink some liquor. Suddenly thinking that the long-haired liquor is really good wine, he didn't wait for Han Ying to get up, so he went to find it himself. After looking for a long time, I found a jar, which was very tightly sealed, and there was a word on the belly of the jar: royal.

"Wow, old lady, let's not drink red wine, you should really try this long-haired wine. Ye Chen opened the lid of the jar, and the room was instantly filled with the strong aroma of aging, and he saw that the thick layer of white hair covered the top of the elixir jade liquid, and his eyes lit up.

The old lady also saw it, and was disgusted: "I don't want it, I don't want it." I can't drink it. ”

Han Ying scolded: "You are dead, how can you give my mother such a thing?"

Ye Chen laughed and said: "You don't understand, this is called wine mash, only the real aged grain wine, let alone for a long enough time, not less than 70 years, to give birth to this essence." Once it is born, it is certain that this wine is the best wine, and this wine mash is the essence of the best wine. ”

The old lady stroked her palms and laughed: "It turns out that my uncle is a person who often drinks and knows so many stories. ”

Ye Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Where have I seen any wine, and I don't drink alcohol." But I've watched a classic Hong Kong TV series, so I have a bit of knowledge in this area. - Old lady, don't mistake me for a drunkard. ”

Hearing this, Han Ying hurriedly clarified in front of the old lady that he was not a drunkard, thinking that he was really as careful as a hair, and he could think of anything in front. I couldn't help but sigh again. feels his intentions and seriousness, and sighs that all this is just acting in front of people after all.

"So what are you waiting for? Good wine and good food, this reunion dinner is the best I've ever had. The old lady really asked for a spoonful of the wine mash, and also gave Han Ying a spoonful, and Ye Chen himself brought three spoonfuls.

Han Ying didn't eat this wine mash, not so much that he didn't want to eat it, but that he wasn't sure whether this thing was good or bad, if it was really like what Ye Chen said, he should eat it first. She asked herself that this was definitely not the heart of a villain, if Ye Chen didn't eat it well, at least she could save it as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, the old lady took a sip of the wine first, and her eyes were so frightened that she stared out.

Wow! The old lady almost resonated from the dantian to her throat to her tongue and let out a cry of satisfaction! "My old lady has also eaten a lot of liquor, which is really rare, and she has never had such a delicious wine." I didn't let your dad eat it at the time, it turns out that you can forget all the unpleasantness if you really eat and drink. ”

Ye Chen had already taken a bite, looking at Han Ying, she still didn't dare to eat, but she was deeply suspicious of the old lady's intoxicated expression, almost suspecting that the old lady deliberately pretended to coax her to eat it too. Han Ying didn't eat the mash of the white wine, but only sipped the red wine, just like the beautiful and noble ladies in the TV series sitting in a high-end restaurant.

The old lady didn't eat much, she only ate a few grains of rice and a few chopsticks dishes, all of which were sandwiched by Han Ying for her, and she drank a bowl of good mountain mushroom soup, a tablespoon of wine mash, and after eating, she had to eat Han Ying's spoonful, which was transferred to Ye Chen by Han Ying and persuaded her not to eat again.

"I won't eat it, listen to you, I'll have a big •••••• tongue if I eat it again. - You eat, I'll show my uncle something. With that, he went to the house, and when she came back, she had a few more rare things in her hand.

Ye Chen was taken aback, thinking that the few things in the old lady's hand were extraordinary at first glance, maybe they were from the palace, if she dared to give this thing to him, he didn't know how to refuse. Accepting it is equivalent to being the aunt of the Han family, and the matter between him and Han Ying will be confirmed, and if he doesn't accept it, he will deceive the old lady and deceive the old man on the basis of playing with feelings.

Sure enough, the old lady gave Ye Chen a night pearl the size of a chicken. The rest of the gold and jade beads were given to Han Ying. "These things are family heirlooms, and you are the uncle of the Han family. This night pearl was brought from Africa to the Central Plains when the Three Treasure Eunuchs went to the Western Ocean, when my ancestors followed the Three Treasure Eunuchs on an errand on the ship, and the Three Treasure Eunuchs were saved by him, so they gave this thing to my ancestors. It has been passed down. These golden, jade, pearl and emerald things are handed down by the ancestors of the Han family, and they are Han Ying's things, and my things are returned to their original owners. There's one more thing that Yingzi has been thinking about, and I think it's time to hand it over to her. ”

Han Ying saw that she seemed to be doing a curtain call performance of her life, and her nose was sour and she burst into tears. She pressed her mother's hand and choked up, "Mom, are you drunk? I don't want to be this family yet!"

The old lady stroked her palms and laughed and said, "Look at you, I can't keep looking at you, but now that I have someone in front of me who can love you, I want him to know how big our ancestral business is, and I want to live my rest of my life in peace." I'm in this situation, you can't make me think about these useless things every day. ”

Ye Chen said: "This night pearl is too precious, how can I inherit the things of your family, old lady?"

The old lady waved her hand and said, "It's all just something outside the body!" Our family has been passed down for many generations, and in my generation, all five brothers died in the national disaster, leaving me as a woman, and things can only be passed on to me, and I will pass them on to my daughter. The reason why I pass it on to you is that I don't want you to think of yourself as just my aunt, you should be like my son. I'm really gone one day, and I want you to throw a pot for me. - If you want to say precious, my daughter is the most precious, my daughter has given it to you, a night pearl that can't be hungry and cold and can't be clothed, do I still care?"

Ye Chen was at a loss for words when he heard her say this, so he could only accept it. Han Ying took advantage of his defenselessness, pulled it over, looked it up and down in his hand, left and right, and put it together with Jin Yu Zhucui: "These are all mine, you can take the basin down." ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Ye Chen has a housekeeper! Okay, I'll make a difference." - It's up to you!" said he conjured up another title deed in his hand. The old-fashioned title deed with yellowed color, but it is stamped with the seals of the yamen of the past dynasties.

Han Ying asked, "This is the title deed of the ancestral house that my father said?"

The old lady said, "The title deed of the ancestral house is it." The ancestral mansion itself is not a big deal, it is worth three or five billion at most, and what I want to warn you about is what is behind this ancestral mansion. - Swear that not a word of what you hear today will be known to outsiders. ”

So mysterious? Ye Chen was a little scared. He and Han Ying were fake, and he looked at Han Ying with his eyes. Han Ying suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "Mom, my stomach hurts, wait for me for a while." He hugged his stomach and went to the bathroom.

Because Han Ying left, the old lady naturally didn't have the heart to say it. After waiting for more than ten minutes, I only heard Han Ying shouting in the bathroom: "Ye Chen, come over and kill the cockroaches!"

Ye Chen took a sip of wine and rushed into the bathroom in three or two steps. The old lady listened to the two of them slapping in the bathroom. Suddenly, Ye Chen spun around and collapsed in the bathroom.

"Mom, Ye Chen drank too much, I helped him go to bed and rest. - I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have something to do. Han Ying said, while holding the title deed in her hand, folding it, putting it close to her body, settling the old lady to sit in the living room, and cleaning up the dining table herself.

"You said Ye Chen drank too much, he was fine just now!" The old lady didn't believe that Ye Chen didn't come out because he drank too much. "I haven't finished talking yet!"

"It's not too early, how many words can't be said until tomorrow when the weather is even?"

"Alas!" the old lady sighed, "What's the point of telling you by yourself?—— can't you rest assured of Ye Chen?"

Han Ying sat down next to the old lady, peeled an orange and stuffed it into her mouth, lay on her arms and said, "Do you know that you are the wine mash?" Ye Chen can't eat too much, it's you who are drunk, and you are not considerate and compassionate, Ye Chen can't drink, he has drunk so much with you, and you still solemnly announce something big, and his state is not suitable. What do you say?"

The old lady suddenly remembered something and asked, "Didn't you say that there was any surprise to tell me? I forgot for a while, what was the surprise?"

Han Ying easily remembered that after taking Ye Chen to a consultation yesterday afternoon, she had woven a lie that was appropriate to the situation, but she didn't expect the old lady to have such a good memory.

"Surprise? Isn't it enough that I found you a twenty-four-year-old son-in-law?" Han Ying said with a sloppy look.

"! You were together first, and then you said you had a surprise for me. Surprises?"

"Tomorrow you ask Ye Chen. I can't think of any surprises!"

"Could it be •••••• you have?" said the old lady, patting Han Ying's little belly.

"Old lady, you're going too far! I don't even want to be friends with you, it's too unreasonable. ”

"Yes, can I wait?—— you are not married! Don't wait for the guise on your stomach to get a license, that would be too unruly. ”

"You're here again!

"Okay, I won't say it, but my ugly words are ahead, I also sent the night pearl, I am determined, I am not responsible for what you do yourself. ”

"You can't run. Han Ying said and stuffed another slice of orange into the old lady's mouth.

Suddenly, the old lady shouted something bad, and the bluffing Han Ying jumped to her feet all of a sudden.
