Chapter Twenty-Six: We Are Poor in the Countryside!
It's really a Hongmen feast!
Hearing Gu Lingyu's words, Hu Xiao narrowed his eyes, after getting Gu Lingyu's reminder yesterday, Hu Xiao felt that this meal might not be simple.
Now Hu Xiao can't see through it, Old Man Gu and Gu Lingyu will not target themselves, but this makes Hu Xiao even more confused, if he doesn't target himself at the dinner hosted by Old Man Gu, who else will target him?
"Mr. Hu, I don't know much about the specific situation, but the second uncle called and said that he had a friend who was coming, and this friend was a little hostile to Mr."
This is the original words, Gu Lingyu's second uncle is Gu Chengyu, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security.
He was called back by Gu Jinguo, what was the specific reason, Gu Lingyu was not very clear.
That's what Gu Chengyu said on the phone yesterday, saying that he had a friend who was going to follow, and he had no way to stop it, so he could only give this side a wake-up.
After listening to Gu Lingyu's words, Hu Xiao's eyes froze, since this person is a friend of the vice minister of public security, it is very simple that this person will not be simple, especially if he can participate in the Gu family's family banquet with a dead face, this person should have some background.
But what about some backgrounds, annoying yourself, just clean up, it's a big deal that an old man wipes his ass!
Mingyue Tower was not far away, and Gu Lingyu parked the car after more than ten minutes.
"Please, Mr. Hu."
Gu Lingyu made a gesture of please.
As a star-rated hotel in the city, Mingyue Tower is extremely luxurious in terms of architecture and decoration, and it can even be said that every brick and tile here is worth a lot.
Soon arrived at the private room.
Gu Lingyu pushed the door open, then pushed it back again, signaling Hu Xiao to go first.
The moment the door was pushed open, Hu Xiao noticed that there were already three people in the room, and it was Gu Jinguo who was on the main seat.
Today's old man Gu has a ruddy complexion, a radiant complexion, and there are still old people there, looking at that posture, it can be comparable to a young man.
On the left hand side of Old Man Gu is a middle-aged man with glasses, looking at Sven, but he is not angry and arrogant, and there is always a kind of majesty on his body, presumably due to his long high position, then this should be Gu Lingyu's second uncle, Gu Chengyu.
The last one is also a middle-aged man, how to describe his face, his eyes are very small, almost a slit, and he has a single eyelid, this should be Gu Chengyu's friend.
"Gu Lao."
Walking into the room, he arched his hand at Gu Jinguo, Hu Xiao said.
"Mr. Hu is here, hurry up, please take a seat!"
Old Man Gu hurriedly got up and said, with an enthusiastic face.
It was this action that made Gu Chengyu's gaze under his glasses condense slightly.
The identity of his father is there, and the person who has retired from that place, even if the mayor comes, he doesn't have to get up, but for this young man, his father is very respectful.
Of course, Gu Chengyu knew that this young man had saved his father, and it was said that it was a wonderful rejuvenation.
These four words are amazing, although people now call doctors are wonderful hands to rejuvenation, but how many can really do this?
This trip was forced by his father to come back, in order to ask this Mr. Hu to see a doctor for himself, but the one next to him, Gu Chengyu squinted his eyes.
"Look at the old man's appearance, he should have eaten a lot recently, and his body is getting better!"
Hu Xiao smiled and sat in his seat.
Old Man Gu has absolutely no problems with his body, a five-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, that kind of spiritual treasure, plus Hu Xiao's acupuncture conditioning, it can be said that now Old Man Gu's body is incomparable to that of a strong young man.
"Mr. Tohu's blessing, his health is all well."
Old man Gu had a smile on his face, in his eyes, this Hu Xiao was a master, after being discharged from the hospital, he had specially asked someone to check on Hu Xiao, but soon those people replied, they only found a place called Bald Village.
Those villagers also affirmed that there was Hu Xiao, and pointed out Hu Xiao's home to them, but they just couldn't find it, and even used a series of scientific and technological means, but they couldn't find it.
Later, a big man called him, and Gu Jinguo gave up investigating Hu Xiao's matter.
But it is precisely because of this that Gu Jinguo is more and more sure that this Hu Xiao is not simple, this is a powerful person, so he started to make friends.
"Now that Mr. Hu has arrived, let's talk while eating."
Gu Lingyu said, she wanted to finish this meal as soon as possible, and send Hu Xiao away when nothing happened.
Soon the dish began to be served, and when the first dish was served, Hu Xiao noticed that there were some small red pieces about four centimeters square inside, accompanied by some golden pears that looked like they were coated with sugar.
"Mr. Hu, this first dish is braised civet."
Gu Lao smiled and pointed to the piece of meat on the plate and said.
"Mr. Hu, you want to taste more, you must not eat this thing often, right?"
At this time, the middle-aged man next to Gu Chengyu spoke, and even took the initiative to clip a piece of meat and put it on Hu Xiao's dinner plate.
But looking at the middle-aged man's actions, you can't find any fault, but Old Man Gu's gaze is slightly condensed!
This guy was mocking Hu Xiao, saying that he didn't have the ability to go to this star-rated hotel to spend money on weekdays when he came from the mountains.
Old Man Gu's face was a little ugly, no matter how Hu Xiao was his guest, the middle-aged man did this, and his face was dull. If it weren't for the fact that this young man had a bit of a big background, Old Man Gu would have kicked him out directly.
Looking at Hu Xiao, he didn't seem to hear the middle-aged man's words, but nodded his head, revealing that kind of honest smile.
"It's true that I'm a vegetarian on weekdays."
This is the truth, the old man asked Hu Xiao to be a vegetarian on weekdays to facilitate his understanding, but unfortunately, Hu Xiao has been a vegetarian for so long, and he has not met the old man's requirements.
Hmph, it's just a dirt bun!
Seeing Hu Xiao's appearance, Wang Chenglong's face became even more disdainful.
What kind of Chinese medicine is just a trick to fool people!
Wang Chenglong said in his heart, this time, he just heard that Old Man Gu's illness was cured, so he came to take a look.
When Old Man Gu was sick for the first time, Gu Chengyu looked for him, and Wang Chenglong gave an assertion at that time, saying that the old man's illness was not serious, but it was impossible to cure it radically.
This is a medical conclusion, and there is no cure for heart disease at all!
But now the old man's illness has been cured!
This almost broke his medical cognition for so many years, and it is said that it is still cured by a Chinese medicine doctor, how is it possible, Chinese medicine is just some ghost tricks to fool people!
Some tree roots, rotten grass can cure diseases?
Wang Chenglong was disdainful in his heart, even though he knew that it was handed down from the Celestial Empire for thousands of years, but in his eyes, only Western medicine could be regarded as a real doctor.
Now seeing Hu Xiao, Wang Chenglong feels that Old Man Gu has been fooled, which of those Chinese medicine practitioners is not gray hair, and half a foot in the coffin, this young man is far from the image of those Chinese medicine practitioners, you said that you are fully prepared for acting, right?
In Wang Chenglong's opinion, Old Man Gu should have been secretly given some stimulating drugs by Hu Xiao to make him look better in a short period of time, but in fact, this was aggravating Old Man Gu's condition.
I must expose him in a moment.
Thinking like this, Wang Chenglong was even more angry when he saw Old Man Gu and Hu Xiao talking happily.
"Mr. Hu, the civet cats on your plate haven't been eaten yet, this thing is very delicious, and there will be no such shop in this village after that!"
If Wang Chenglong's ridicule of Hu Xiao had a degree before, then now there is no such degree, and the completely mocking tone made Old Man Gu's face sink instantly.
"Jackie Chan, pay attention to what you say!"
Old Man Gu scolded, but one sentence made Wang Chenglong laugh.
"Old Gu, I'm telling the truth, how can you eat this kind of delicacies from the mountains and seas like this kind of bun on weekdays."
"Old Gu, he told the truth, I really haven't eaten civet cats."
At this time, Hu Xiao spoke, still with that sincere smile, if Jingyu was here, he would definitely recognize that Hu Xiao was planning to pit people, but Wang Chenglong didn't know, so he didn't know that Hu Xiao planned to pit him.
"I heard that Gu Lao was not in good health, so my little nephew specially exchanged a ginseng from a foreign friend and dedicated it to Gu Lao to express his heart."
Dirt buns are considered sensible!
Hearing Hu Xiao's somewhat soft words, Wang Chenglong hummed in his heart, he had already said that a dirt bun from the mountains could be seen from that clothes, it was still a Zhongshan suit from the sixties and seventies, what ability could it have?
Then Wang Chenglong quickly opened the gift box next to him and pushed it to Gu Lao.
The gift box contains a thumb-sized ginseng, which is white all over, and the ginseng must be well preserved, looking like it is some vintage.
"Gu Lao, I dragged a friend to get it, and it is said that it has been fifty years."
Wang Chenglong has a smile on his face, fifty-year-old ginseng can't be found in ordinary places, it can be said that he is definitely a treasure!
But why is Old Man Gu's face very calm, and he doesn't have a word of praise?
The scene was a little awkward, but at this moment, a rattling sound sounded out of place.
Damn, what is that dirt bun doing!
Wang Chenglong scolded in his heart, and then turned his head over, but the moment he turned over, his expression was stunned.
Following his gaze, the dirt bun didn't know when he took out a white radish the thickness of a child's arm and took a bite, which was not counting, and he made a complaining sound while biting.
"We are poor in the countryside and can't afford to eat civet cats!"
Damn, retarded!
Wang Chenglong scolded in his heart, but the next moment his pupils shrank fiercely!
That's not a white radish!
Who has so many whiskers under the white radish, and then looked at it, Wang Chenglong was stupid all of a sudden.
That's a ginseng!
Ginseng with a thin wrist, how many years, 500, or a thousand does this have to be?
Wang Chenglong felt that his face was hot, and it was at this time that he seemed to notice his gaze, the dirt bun, took out a few pieces of flaky mushroom-like things from his pocket again, and then took a bite of it.
This, this turned out to be Ganoderma lucidum, looking at it, the year is at least five hundred years old!
"We are poor in the countryside and can't afford to eat pangolins."
At this moment, another resentful voice came.
