The dishes were placed, and after Wen Xiuying gave Master Kou a salute, everyone sat down around the table. The guests present, except for Li Qingyi and Yuzhu, it was the first time for everyone else to see antique soup eaten like this, and they all stared at the table full of raw meat and vegetables, and they couldn't put chopsticks.

Pi Yang and the little girl made a good dish for everyone, glanced left and right, and said strangely: "What are you doing in a daze, moving chopsticks?" In my case, don't be polite about anything, just shake it off and eat! ”

Everyone picked up the chopsticks and stared at the raw meat with frowns, looking very embarrassed. Li Qingze pulled the meat slices and said with a bitter face: "Brother Pi, the younger brother used to eat cooked meat, and this raw food is covered with sesame oil, so I am afraid of making trouble when I eat it, so I should cook it in soup for a quarter of an hour before using it." Kou Zhun and Tian Yanyi also agreed, nodding.

Pi Yang was stunned, is this ancient hot pot a messy stew? He was puzzled: "Qing Ze, the meat is boiled for a quarter of an hour, don't you think firewood?" ”

Li Qingze thought about it, pursed his lips and shook his head.

Pi Yang laughed: "Miss Yuzhu, how do I eat here, you can make a sample with everyone first." ”

"Me?" Yuzhu glanced at everyone shyly, hesitated and didn't move, for a reason: "Yuzhu is a subordinate, and he moves chopsticks before you, so I am afraid that it will be unseemly." Although she is loved by the third lady, and there are many taboos in her words and deeds in private, she is a slave in the end, and now in front of so many people, how dare she do anything arrogant.

The subordinate and the master sit together for dinner, which is unreasonable, and now the jade beads can be served, which is really the grace of the third lady. So when everyone heard her words, they were speechless, probably agreeing with what she just said.

Pi Yang's face was a little ugly, not to blame everyone's attitude, these people were educated to divide people into three, six, nine and so on, but Yuzhu's words just now stimulated him vividly, and in the face of all evil feudal thoughts, there was a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He sighed and said, "Miss Yuzhu, I don't care what your identity is, and I don't care how you deal with yourself in other places, you came to my house, you are my friend of Piyang, not a subordinate." After speaking, he ignored everyone's gaze, took the chopsticks and picked up two slices of mutton, soaked them twice in the red soup grid and put them in the flavor plate, then stood up and exchanged himself and Yuzhu's flavor dish without saying a word.

Yuzhu was stunned, only to hear him say again: "Besides, how many people can go down?" There may be a distinction between high and low people's status, but there is no difference between high and low in essence, your so-called physique is a shackle imposed on the public by the ruling class, and it is worthless in my eyes, if you don't move the chopsticks first today, we will accompany you to starve! ”

Yuzhu lowered her head, tears fell, and the pear blossoms with rain appeared, I felt pity. She was a servant of her master, so how could anyone have ever told her this? Now I was hurt in my heart by Pi Yang's words, I was born as a human being, but if there is any other way, who wants to be a slave?

Wu Zixin and Wen Xiuying also had red eyes, and the little girl silently held Xianggong's palm, as if she was understanding his state of mind at the moment.

Although Kou Zhun has a vested interest in the existing social system, he deeply believes in Pi Yang's words, but in the past thousand years, the idea that people have a distinction between high and low has long been ingrained in people's hearts, and how easy is it to change? He glanced at Pi Yang, sighed silently in his heart, and felt a little helpless.

Li Qingyi took out a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Yuzhu: "You girl, what are you crying about, when didn't the family eat you first?" Your crying makes people think that I really treat you as a human being. ”

Yuzhu was wiping her tears, and when she heard this, she was shocked when she heard the words, and said in a panic: "Third Miss, I..."

"Alright, don't talk about it." The third lady intercepted Yuzhu's words and said with a smile: "Today you are clamoring to come to Zixin's house to eat antique soup, since the master has asked you to use it first, then you will use it first, no need to be restrained." ”

Yuzhu snorted, looked up and glanced at everyone timidly, seeing that everyone was smiling with kindness and encouragement, a burst of warmth rose in her heart, and she took the chopsticks and picked up the mutton on the plate, but she was a little embarrassed and didn't put it in her mouth.

The meat was put in the pot and soaked twice, Li Qingze couldn't wait to know if it was cooked, so he stared at Yuzhu and said urgently: "Yuzhu, you eat." ”

"You guys, can you not look at me like that?" Yuzhu said shyly.

"That's it!" Pi Yang straightened his color, and said righteously: "Yuzhu is a dignified woman, how can there be a group of people staring at others eating, it's too rude!" Miss Yuzhu, don't worry, you opened your mouth so much that even your little tongue was exposed yesterday, I don't remember it, eat it! ”

The other six people held back their laughter, you look at me, I look at you, and I don't know who snorted, and everyone laughed. Yuzhu's face was flushed, and her eyes staring at Pi Yang were about to burst into flames, and she wanted to bite him to death.

After a meal, everyone praised the taste of this antique soup, and the way to eat it was also affirmed by everyone. To say that Miss Li's master and servant thought it was delicious yesterday, Pi Yang was still a little uncertain in his heart, but at this moment, his confidence was greatly increased, if this hot pot business started, it was said that a single store could make money every day, and when Lao Tzu opened a chain store across the country, it was not impossible to become the richest man in the Great Song Dynasty.

His head showed that he was full of money, his eyes were shining, and his heart was hot, until someone pulled the corner of his clothes and regained consciousness.

Pi Yang turned his head to look at the little girl in confusion, and Wu Zixin whispered: "Xianggong, what did Lord Kou call you?" ”
