Chapter 286: Torment
"Brother Yong, come, come and taste this foie gras and see how it tastes, I know that you are coming today, and my aunt specially prepared it for you. ”
"Okay, good ......"
Li Huayong responded to Lin Kai vaguely, and at the same time silently recited in his heart: Exam! It turns out that this meal is the second exam question prepared by Lin Wei's parents for herself, this dining room is the examination room, and the examiner has become Lin Wei's mother.
This exam question made Li Huayong very uncomfortable, much more uncomfortable than when he was in the study just now.
And the most uncomfortable thing for Li Huayong was what Western food he ate today.
First of all, it must be pointed out that Li Huayong has no prejudice against Western food, and even because he often needs to travel abroad, he may have eaten more Western food than ordinary people, but everyone knows a characteristic of this thing, Western food is difficult to make people full.
"Alas, it seems that I am still too real, I only know that I am here to eat today, who knows what kind of Western food I will eat, if I had known that this is the case, I should have eaten something to cushion my stomach before coming here. If you want to say that this Lin Wei's mother is true, it's not that she hasn't seen me, it's rare that she doesn't know that the person who came here today is five big and three thick? Don't you know that this person's nickname is "Dunzi"? Just such a thing, how can this make people eat enough.... I now seriously suspect that Lin Wei and her mother are deliberately manipulating me......."
Li Huayong complained like this in his heart, and naturally he didn't dare to show half of it on the surface. Not only did he not dare to express any dissatisfaction, but he even had to put on a grateful look:
"Well, it's delicious, this foie gras is delicious, and it tastes quite authentic! ”
"Filipino maids do. ”
“........”
Li Huayong's face turned red suddenly, and it was completely conceivable how embarrassing the atmosphere was at this time. Poor Li Huayong just wants to pat the future mother-in-law's fart, and he uses the most common routine of our Chinese sons-in-law: praising the mother-in-law's cooking skills, which may be regarded as the only magic weapon for patting the mother-in-law's fart.
It's a pity that Li Huayong forgot that today's family is not an ordinary family, like Lin Wei's mother, she may not have entered the kitchen in her life.
"Poof. ”
Seeing Li Huayong's embarrassment, the first to laugh out loud was naturally Lin Kai, and although Lin Yinglong had a smile on his face, he was still good, in order to resolve the embarrassment, he immediately changed the topic:
"Come on, Xiao Li is drinking and drinking, you just said that you met the elder Liu ....... last night"
Lin Yinglong asked about this matter casually when he went downstairs, and Li Huayong also felt that there was nothing to hide about this matter, so he briefly told Lin Yinglong about meeting the elder Liu in Chinatown yesterday.
"Because of what happened last time, Elder Liu has an enmity with our Lin family, do you really think that he came with good intentions yesterday?
"Maybe, maybe I'm stupid, anyway, I don't see any bad intentions on his part. ”
"Oh, do you really think so?"
"Yes, I've always thought that in business, there is no hatred in the mall that can't be resolved. After what happened last time, Elder Liu may still be resentful, but don't we Chinese have a common saying, call those who know the times Junjie, and now the situation of the Lin family is stronger than him, so my judgment is that he should have come with good intentions yesterday. ”
"Hahaha, according to Xiao Li's meaning, do you think that the eldest Liu is a handsome person?"
"This ......"
Lin Yinglong's words are not easy to accept, but Li Huayong thinks that it may be reluctant to say that the elder Liu is a "handsome man", but he should still be able to afford to say that this person "knows the current affairs".
Li Huayong couldn't answer Lin Yinglong's words, and the atmosphere at the dinner table froze there for a while. Lin Yinglong glanced at Li Huayong deeply at this time, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said something inexplicable:
"Xiao Li is good, I really didn't expect you to answer like this, you probably don't know, I also asked the same question to another person, but that person gave a diametrically opposite answer to you. ”
Li Huayong actually wanted to ask who that person was, but in the end he couldn't help but ask, because as soon as Lin Yinglong finished saying this, the handsome face of the second brother of the Hu family that made people jealous appeared in his mind.
"Well, since you say I'm "good", then prove that you agree with my opinion, whether it's true or not, I'll pass this exam question......."
Of course, this exam is far from over, don't forget that this is the dining room, and the first examiner here is Lin Wei's mother. If some of the exam questions produced by Lin's father are "question and answer questions," then Lin's mother's exam questions are very much like some "fill-in-the-blank questions."
Don't look at the short, seemingly simple "fill-in-the-blank questions" in parents, but this kind of question is not easy to answer. If Father Lin asks about some major matters and examines Li Huayong's outlook on life or worldview, then Mother Lin asks about some trivial matters, focusing on Li Huayong's personal interests and hobbies.
It must be pointed out that Lin Mu does not have many questions, just occasionally ask one or two sentences in some intervals, and her questions are not tricky, so simple that Li Huayong feels as simple as some "sending points", but it is precisely these seemingly simple "sending points" that Li Huayong does not have any confidence, and he has no idea whether his answers can satisfy Lin Mu.
It should be that Li Huayong's worries are very normal, can you imagine a technical science and engineering man from later generations, his personal interests and hobbies can meet the tastes of a middle-aged lady in Xiangjiang in this era?
Regardless of whether others have confidence or not, Li Huayong has no confidence at all anyway, especially with Lin Mu's expression that has always been salty and indifferent, Li Huayong has no bottom! He really doesn't know how well he did in this second examination room.
Of course, those who have taken the test know that an exam with no bottom in their hearts is very painful, so it is completely conceivable how Li Huayong suffered in the dining room of Lin Wei's house.
Fortunately, maybe seeing Li Huayong suffering, Lin Yinglong didn't let this meal last long. Full of wine and food, no, it should be said that Li Huayong is still starving, Lin Yinglong put down the dishes and chopsticks with a smile:
"Xiao Li has eaten well, right?"
"Eat... Eat well, eat well. ”
"After eating, let's go to the study now, I heard that Xiao Li can also play Go, are you interested in talking to me about a game?"
What else can Li Huayong say, not to mention that he loves to play Go himself, even if he has no interest in this Tao at all, in order to leave the dining room early, he must pretend to be very interested.
However, he wants to talk to himself, so what level is he? Li Huayong felt that he still needed to ask.
"Xiao Kai, you also go up with me. ”
After Lin Yinglong said this, he led Li Huayong and Lin Kai back up to the study on the second floor. After sitting down in front of the chessboard, Li Huayong asked seemingly casually:
"It turns out that my uncle can also play chess, how long has this chess been playing?"
Lin Yinglong said with a smile: "You are asking how my level is, right? I haven't been playing chess for a long time, and I have just learned it for a long time, so my level should be very stinky." But Xiao Li, let me tell you, although my level is not good, but the master who taught me is a famous master in Xiangjiang, my master now lets me have 4 sons, so let's do it, I heard that Xiao Li You are also a master of this way, how about you also let me have 4 sons?"
The Go master of Xiangjiang? The Go master of Xiangjiang in this era? Li Huayong really couldn't remember that there was such a person, so he asked tentatively:
"The master who taught you chess is ......"
"Speaking of which, the gentleman who taught me to play chess is also a celebrity, and the martial arts he wrote are very famous, Xiao Li should know. ”
Writing martial arts and loving to play Go, Li Huayong immediately went against a character, and he almost lost his voice and said:
"Could it be that it was Kim who taught you chess.... Check, Mr. Cha?"
"Haha, I know Xiao Li, you must have guessed, when it comes to martial arts, you will definitely think of Mr. Cha, but you may not know that Mr. Cha is still a Go master, right?
Li Huayong suddenly grimaced. Old Man Jin is a chess fan and even a chess idiot, this is what Li Huayong knows. There are two idols in his life: Fan Li in the ancients, and Wu Qingyuan in the present, but this is said by the old man Jin himself. In addition, in order to learn chess, Mr. Jin also went to the mainland to worship Lao Nie as a teacher, which Li Huayong had also heard.
However, to say that Mr. Jin is a master of Go......
Of course, in the eyes of beginners, Mr. Jin is indeed a master, after all, he has an amateur level of one or two stages, and if he "has a rank", he is naturally a master.
It's just that his level is in Li Huayong's eyes.......
I don't dare to say more, but Li Huayong believes that if Old Man Jin puts 4 in front of him, he will lose at least 9 games of 10 games.
Now Mr. Jin asked 4 people to ask himself to only let 4.
Li Huayong suddenly felt that in the next period of time, he would go through another period of suffering.
