Chapter 138: Meng's Family Banquet
When Lu Qingya heard it, he said: "Speaking of food, I haven't tasted the porridge and Buddha jumping over the wall today, I have to go to your place to taste it." Lin Mo smiled: "What's so difficult about this, the restaurant is ready, you find Brother Zhao, let him serve it to you, and you can eat it openly." Then he told Lu Qingya the address, and Lu Qingya smiled: "This is what you said, I really went." Saying that, he took Fang Han and went to Shiweitian.
Lin Mo was standing here, because there must be a lot of people who would come to ask Lin Mo, and Lin Mo couldn't just leave. Sure enough, after a while, the people who participated in today's birthday banquet greeted Lin Mo one after another, and then approached, and then asked where Shi Weitian was, and wanted to taste the Buddha jumping over the wall.
When the others were basically finished, Lin Mo was also about to leave, when a voice sounded: "Lin Gongzi is very knowledgeable and astute. Today's banquet can be said to be in the limelight, and I admire it in the next good life. Lin Mo looked back and saw that it was all right. Lin Mo frowned, then stretched out his hand and said: "Wherever it is, it is the left side of the door, where can you enter the magic eye of the ten thousand shopkeepers." ”
Wan Quan didn't pay attention to Lin Mo's strange eyes, but said, "Last time, you visited my house, but unfortunately I went out to inspect and wasn't in the house, so it's a pity that I couldn't meet you." Lin Mo smiled: "Haha, that's really a pity, I will definitely visit again when I have time in the future." ”
"Haha, then I'll wait for the vacancy, and then we can have a drink."
Wan Quan smiled, and then said goodbye to Lin Mo and left. Others were very surprised to see the two talking and laughing, thinking that the relationship between the two was very good, and Meng Changjun, who went out to see off the guests, saw the two of them so curiously and stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Lin Mo, are you very familiar with this shopkeeper?" Lin Mo whispered: "Sort of, by the way, are you Meng family very familiar with him?" ”
Meng Changjun thought for a while and said: "It's not very familiar, my grandmother likes to eat the snacks in his shop, so he personally delivers them every day, and he is very attentive, so he invited him here." Lin Mo nodded when he heard this, if this was the case, he could be regarded as "competing for favor" with him, and then he was about to leave. Meng Changjun stopped him and said: "It's almost the New Year's Festival, there will be a poetry meeting in a few days, and the famous talents in Yunzhou will come to participate, do you want to come too?" ”
Lin Mo's head was big when he heard it, this ancient literati was really troublesome, there was a small meeting in three days, a conference in five days, and all kinds of poetry meetings and literary meetings were held one after another, Lin Mo was really not interested, this time there was a next time, it was too troublesome.
Lin Mo shook his head and said: "This, I still have some things to deal with, and my family is no longer in Yunzhou, I have to go back in a few days, I'm afraid I really don't have time to see this poetry club." ”
Meng Changjun listened, with a look of disappointment in his eyes, and then nodded and said: "The coming day is long, and in three months it will be the government exam, we have to concentrate on studying, it's not a big deal if we don't participate, and when the exam is over, there will be the Qingming Literary Club, the Duanyang Poetry Club, and there will be opportunities to meet friends with literature, and we are not in a hurry." ”
Lin Mo was a little big when he heard this, and then hurriedly said goodbye and left, not wanting to discuss these literary and poetry meetings anymore. Meng Changjun returned to the mansion, and at this time, all the guests were gone, and Mrs. Tai was still sitting at the table in the hall
Meng Wenzhao next to him also sat with Mrs. Tai, and when Mrs. Tai saw Meng Changjun coming back, she asked, "Changjun, are all the guests gone?" ”
Meng Changjun nodded and said, "Grandmother, those people are gone." Mrs. Tai nodded, and then looked at Meng Changjun dotingly and said, "Come here, there are many more Buddha jumping over the wall, hurry up and try it." As he spoke, he filled a bowl and handed it to Meng Changjun, who hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Thank you, grandmother." Then he devoured it.
Mrs. Tai smiled and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke, it's not enough, go to that food and eat it again after eating." Meng Wenzhao said with a smile: "This Lin Mo is really, if you want to send more, it is really not enough to send this jar." ”
Mrs. Tai glanced at her son helplessly and said, "You, you are really stupid to read, you don't know why he sent this jar of Buddha to jump over the wall?" Meng Wenzhao was puzzled, and Mrs. Tai sighed and said, "That's it, it doesn't have any impact on us, by the way, you go and call that girl over." ”
Meng Wenzhao was surprised when he heard this, and then immediately left in a hurry. Mrs. Tai sighed and said, "It's more than thirty, and it's still not a good one, when can I be like the boss, alas." Meng Changjun on the side looked at his grandmother strangely, not knowing why his grandmother had changed sex.
The girl Mrs. Tai said was Meng Wenzhao's concubine, Meng Wenzhao's wife, Meng Changjun's biological mother, died a few years ago, and Meng Wenzhao has not continued to marry a wife since then.
More than a year ago, Meng Wenzhao somehow got acquainted with a Qinglou woman, and had to accept her as a concubine, it stands to reason that it is normal for literati to take concubines in this era, and it is normal for this lady to pass away for many years, and it is even more common for people to accept a concubine, but this woman is only ten years old, and she is still a Qinglou woman, and Meng Wenzhao is a high-ranking official, which will have a great impact on his Meng family.
Mrs. Tai couldn't afford to lose this person, so she resisted very much, but Meng Wenzhao was determined to marry, and the mother and son were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally Mrs. Tai relented and let the woman enter the door, but she never held a wedding banquet, and she had been living in the house like this without a name or point, Mrs. Tai was not even allowed to eat with everyone, and she was not allowed to come out of today's birthday banquet, but even so, the woman still did not dare to have the slightest complaint, she has been very responsible for several months, and her reputation among the subordinates is also very good.
After a while, Meng Wenzhao led a woman in Tsing Yi slowly walked in, although the woman was not a captivating woman, but she was gentle and lovely, and with a smell of books, it really didn't look like she came out of the green building. When the woman saw Mrs. Tai, she immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Su Ying pays a visit to Mrs. Tai and wishes Mrs. Tai a long life." Mrs. Tai said lightly: "Get up." ”
"Mrs. Xie." Su Ying hurriedly got up and thanked her. Mrs. Tai said: "It's still customary to live in the house these days. When Su Ying heard this, she hurriedly said, "Mrs. Xie cares, it is very comfortable to live here." ”
"Well, that's good, if you don't have anything in the future, tell your subordinates, just go and buy it. By the way, someone here today sent a dish for his birthday, which is very delicious, you can try it. As he spoke, he asked his subordinates to give Su Ying a bowl of Buddha jumping over the wall and handed it to Su Ying. Su Ying hurriedly took it and said: "
Mrs. Xie. ”
"Don't thank you, I'm tired and panicked, I don't know what taboos you have, whether you like this dish or not, if there are any taboos, tell the cook to pay attention to them when you eat in the future."
When Su Ying heard this, Mrs. Tai let herself eat together, this is to identify with herself, Su Ying was very excited, in the past few months, she could only see her twice, this Mrs. has always been reluctant to admit herself, today is an official recognition of herself, Su Ying was naturally moved, and Meng Wenzhao on the side was also very excited.
Mrs. Tai saw all this in her eyes, sighed silently in her heart, to be honest, she still had some resistance in her heart, but no matter how much she resisted, this woman had already entered the door, and her son cherished her very much, and the mother could only back down.
Maybe it was Lin Mo's couplet of "pampering and not being shocked to stay unintentional" today that made Mrs. Tai think about it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, why should she interfere so much, as long as her son likes it, this woman treats her son sincerely. Meng Wenzhao also served a small bowl, and the four of them sat together, this can be regarded as a real family banquet.

is very precious to her, and mothers can only back down.
