Chapter 151: Unexpected Visitor (2)
Xuanzang left, but the young man in Chinese clothes stayed.
The three before meeting didn't give themselves any good looks, and the young man in Chinese clothes didn't care, and introduced himself with a chuckle: "My surname is Li, because I am the ninth oldest in the family, Mrs. Tang can call me Li Jiulang, of course, I am older than you and Tang Xiudu, and I won't mind if you call me Brother Jiu." ”
"Just standing outside the courtyard, I smelled the intoxicating aroma in this courtyard, there is no shortage of chickens, fish, cattle and sheep, I haven't had a feeling of being so eager to eat a meal for a long time, so I will take the liberty of begging, and I hope that Mrs. Tang Haihan will be abrupt."
"Li Gongzi's words are serious, it's just a light meal." Pei Cai'er nodded lightly, turned sideways to get out of the way, and stretched out her hand to Li Jiulang and asked, "Li Gongzi, please." ”
"In this case, then I'm welcome!"
Li Jiulang didn't seem to know what politeness was, Pei Caier stretched out his hand to invite, he walked directly into the hall, saw a table full of hot dishes on the table, sat on the main seat with a butt, and ate a lot when he lifted his chopsticks.
Seeing his appearance, as if he hadn't eaten anything good for hundreds of years, Tang Lu couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Dressed so exquisitely, I thought it was the son of a big family, but I didn't expect it to be like a starving ghost, and I didn't have any interest." What kind of ninth brother is he still calling himself with a shy face, as if someone is screaming? ”
Pei Cai'er didn't follow in, first, for men and women, and secondly, Tang Xiu didn't come back, and she wasn't in the mood to entertain any guests.
"Tang Lu, Hugh has to talk nonsense." Hearing Tang Lu's whispered complaints, Pei Caier reprimanded softly, and said: "The door is a guest, since we have entered our door, then we can't be without courtesy, the husband is not here, and it is not easy for me to accompany a woman's house, you go in and take care of it, so as not to have any discomfort for the guests." ”
"Yes, young lady." Tang Lu answered, and entered the house a little reluctantly.
"Miss, this person is a foodie." Seeing Tang Lu enter, Wan'er secretly glanced into the room and whispered to Pei Cai'er: "Just by smelling, you can smell what kind of dishes we are cooking, which is not something that anyone can do." ”
"Today is cheap, we worked hard to make such a big table of delicious food, but let him rush it. In the entire restaurant of Chang'an City, there is no better food than these meals we make. ”
"But this person is so rude, it's just a shy face to rub the food of the passers, and he doesn't even know how to give in, he knows that he sits there and eats and drinks nonsense, hum!"
It can be seen that Wan'er, the girl, also has a lot of resentment towards Li Jiulang inside. But this is not difficult to understand, after all, what Li Jiulang is eating now also has a share of Wan'er. It's just a pity that the young master didn't come back, the young lady couldn't eat, and Wan'er had to accompany the young lady and advance and retreat with the young lady no matter how much she wanted to eat.
"Let him go." Pei Cai'er didn't take Li Jiulang's matter to heart at all, and stared at the door with both eyes, hoping to see the figure of her husband when he returned.
Seeing that Pei Cai'er was a little absent-minded, Wan'er couldn't help but persuade softly: "Don't worry, Miss, no matter what Young Master Gu says, he is also a master at the peak of Mingjin, even if someone really wants to be unfavorable to him, ordinary people will not be his opponents at all, maybe he will come back by himself in a short time." ”
"That's what I said." Pei Cai'er said worriedly: "But Husband, he is just empty and has internal strength, but he has never practiced any moves against the enemy, and he can't exert the corresponding strength at all." And in this Chang'an City, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there may be a master of bright or even dark strength hidden somewhere, I'm worried that my husband will not be ...... if he doesn't increase."
"Miss, you're just too worried, how can there be such a coincidence?" Wan'er said softly: "Although the young master of Aunt Ji Shi is not very good, his head is still very smart, otherwise, Pei Youdao's old fox would not have been put in prison by the young master of the aunt, speaking of which, Pei Youdao is ...... now."
Speaking of this place, Wan'er's face changed slightly, and she suddenly stopped and said nothing, and said vaguely: "In short, even if he doesn't have a little martial arts, he won't be caught so easily." Since he can let Tang Lu come back and report to us, it means that Young Master Gu has a certain degree of certainty, and we just need to wait quietly for Young Master Gu to come back now. ”
"I hope so."
Pei Cai'er nodded lightly, she admitted that Wan'er did have some truth in what she said, although Tang Xiu had the reputation of a loser, but since she entered the Tang Mansion, she really hadn't seen Tang Xiu do anything to suffer. I hope that this time he will be able to avoid the danger as before.
While the master and servant were talking outside, Li Jiulang in the house had already eaten seventy-seven-eighty-eight.
Tang Lu has been waiting next to him, Li Jiulang is also unceremonious about this, for a while he asked Tang Lu to pour him a cup of tea, and for a while he thought that a certain dish was too far away and asked Tang Lu to move him a little closer.
After drinking two mouthfuls of fish soup and rinsing his mouth, he put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, took the silk you handed by Tang Lu and wiped his mouth, Li Jiulang couldn't help but praise: "The taste of these dishes is all superb, and I am afraid that the entire Chang'an City will not be able to find a better meal than these on the table, not even the imperial food supervisor in the palace." ”
Tang Lu couldn't help but pout, and returned to the imperial food supervisor, who wouldn't brag?
However, this time, Tang Lu did not show disdain and contempt for Li Jiulang again, because from the state of Li Jiulang when he was eating, Tang Lu also saw some of the good things about this Li Jiulang.
At the beginning, seeing that he was eager to open his mouth to eat as if he had never eaten a full meal in eight lifetimes, Tang Lu looked down on him a little, but after watching from the side, Tang Lu gradually changed his opinion at the beginning.
Li Jiulang seemed to be in a hurry, but he didn't eat a lot, and he didn't eat more than three bites of each dish, all of them were just shallow tastes, even the rice in the pot he only served half a bowl, and after eating, he didn't mean to serve it again.
So after this meal, he didn't eat much in total, this is definitely not the state that a starving ghost should have, or even the state that an ordinary normal person should have.
Changing places, if it was Tang Lu sitting at the dinner table now, when encountering such a delicious meal, Tang Lu would never stop if he didn't eat it.
But what about Li Jiulang, Tang Lu saw him several times that he was particularly fond of one of the eight dishes, and when he wanted to pick up the fourth chopsticks after eating three bites, he was still stopped by him, such a strong self-control is something that Tang Lu does not have, but using such strong self-control on such a small thing as eating makes Tang Lu feel more and more that Li Jiulang is a little abnormal.
Normal people eat, which one doesn't eat to the fullest if they want to eat, and drink happily when they want to? Who would be like Li Jiulang, who is so detached from eating a meal?
After eating and drinking, Li Jiulang got up and walked out of the house and walked straight to Pei Cai'er, and said loudly: "Thank you for your hospitality, but I won't eat this meal in vain." Aren't you looking for Tang Xiu's whereabouts, it just so happens that I still have some power in Chang'an City, and I will send someone to help you find it in a while, I believe there will be news soon. ”
