Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Liu Family's Birthday Banquet
On Mr. Liu's birthday, the family wore new clothes and came to the kitchen of Liu's Mansion early, the kitchen of Liu's Mansion was very large, and a stove was specially prepared for her to make longevity peaches.
"Mother, you come to make noodles, I'll make the stuffing, and Dad and Sister Zhi will come to wrap the stuffing and pinch the shape of the peach branch." As soon as Su Mulian arrived in the kitchen, she put on an apron and sleeve covers, washed her hands, and divided her work.
Su Mulian still followed the previous plan, or three kinds of fillings, just in the shape of a peach, and added leaves, which looked more realistic.
After a busy morning, I was also relieved to see the peaches steaming on the pot.
"Daddy, Muzhi, you can rest for a while." Su Mulian looked at the three of them distressedly and said.
Sun Shi took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his face, and smiled tiredly: "Sister Lian, I'm fine." ”
After a while, the longevity peach was baked, and after Su Mulian divided the plate, the subordinates of the Liu Mansion also served them to the table, so that Su Mulian's task was completed.
"Miss Sue." Outside the kitchen, there was a soft call from Master Liu.
I saw that Master Liu was wearing a red dress, the pattern was embroidered with gold and silver filigree, revealing a kind smile, followed by Liu Xinghe, and I saw him wearing dark blue clothes.
Su Mulian took Su Zheng, Sun and Su Muzhi forward, bent down slightly towards Master Liu, nodded slightly, and said politely: "Master Liu, Master Liu, Shou Tao has been done, and the people in the house have already taken it out." ”
"The table will be open in two quarters of an hour, and I have come here to let you see it." Master Liu said with a smile.
When Su Mulian heard this, she frowned in embarrassment and said, "Thank you, Master Liu, this is not necessary." ”
After all, the people who come to the birthday banquet are either rich or expensive, and they are still in the stage of poverty alleviation, so it is out of place to sit in it.
"Yes, Miss Su, you are my father's savior, so naturally you are going to sit down." Liu Xinghe said softly.
At present, Su Mulian is self-aware, and said with a smile: "Mulian knows Master Liu's kindness, but I am just a small villager, so I won't go." ”
After hearing this, Master Liu frowned a little dissatisfied, and said, "Why should Miss Su be arrogant? You are beautiful, and you are a living bodhisattva in everyone's mouth, and I hope that Miss Su will not dislike Liu. ”
Su Mulian heard him say this, and she felt that it was inappropriate to refuse and agree, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Master Liu warmly invited, if we insist on refusing, it will be obvious that we are too unruly, it is better to do this, Sister Lian will go to the birthday banquet, and we will go back." Su Zheng knew Su Mulian's dilemma, and proposed.
"Let's just stay together, right?" Master Liu said.
Sun replied with a smile: "We still have to go back to do some shops, and Sister Lian will represent us." ”
"I don't know what Miss Su means?" Liu Xinghe, who was looking forward to it, asked with a smile.
Su Mulian nodded: "Then thank you Master Liu." ”
After that, Master Liu sent someone to send Su Zheng, Sun and Su Muzhi back to the shop, and Su Mulian came to the front yard under the leadership of Liu Xinghe.
"Xinghe, you will entertain Miss Su well today, do you know?" Master Liu commanded sharply.
Liu Xinghe raised a smile and replied, "Father, don't worry, my son will not be lazy." ”
Then Master Liu was dragged away by others, probably to discuss business issues, and Su Mulian was a little overwhelmed.
"You saved my father, and you also saved me, I will call you Mu Lian in the future, okay?" Liu Xinghe is a cheerful boy, although he grew up in brocade clothes and jade food, he is not a gentleman, he is polite, and there are some matures that his peers do not have.
Su Mulian nodded.
"Then don't call me Liu Gongzi in the future, just call me Xinghe." Liu Xinghe smiled even more happily when he saw her reaction, and he looked a little silly cute.
However, Su Mulian felt that this anger was very embarrassing, but it was not easy to refuse, so she could only smile and nod.
"Xinghe, isn't this a well-known female bodhisattva in our town, are you getting better?" The person who spoke was wearing a dark green Shu brocade robe, and he looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was also a rich second generation in this dress.
However, Su Mulian especially didn't like what he had just said, and frowned slightly with some resistance.
After Liu Xinghe heard this, his cheeks immediately turned red, and he hurriedly said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense. Then he looked at Su Mulian and introduced, "Mulian, this is my little Chu Yunhe." ”
Su Mulian pulled out a smile and nodded politely: "Hello Gongzi Chu." ”
"Hello, Bodhisattva." Chu Yunhe quipped.
Su Mulian looked at him for a while, and her appearance looked very out of tune, completely opposite to Liu Xinghe's personality, and then she only nodded and smiled slightly.
"Mu Lian, will you sit next to me today?" Liu Xinghe said with a smile.
After Su Mulian heard this, the smile on her face couldn't help but stiffen, he was sitting on the chairman, if he sat with him as the chairman, he would definitely be pointed at, Su Mulian, who was sitting upright, was naturally not afraid, but people with a heart spread the word about right and wrong, and they were too lazy to clean up the trouble.
Chu Yunhe seemed to see Su Mulian's troubles, and hurriedly said: "Mu Lian, just sit with me, you are the lord, doesn't this make Mu Lian uncomfortable?" ”
Without waiting for Su Mulian to answer, she pulled him down next to his place.
Su Mulian was speechless throughout the whole process, this Chu Yunhe was too familiar.
Chu Yunhe, the rich second generation, enthusiastically introduced Su Mulian: "Mulian, let me introduce you, this is Master Jiang from Linzhen, who is engaged in the silk business, this is Master Feng, who is engaged in tea, and this is ......."
Su Mulian silently remembered their faces and names, and after Chu Yunhe finished introducing them, she smiled politely at them and said softly, "Hello masters, I'm Su Mulian." ”
After all, everyone in front of him is a big boss, and Su Mulian, who wants to make a fortune, naturally wants to know more about these local tyrants.
"It turns out that this is Miss Su." Master Jiang looked surprised, looked Su Mulian up and down, couldn't help but nodded, and praised, "I had already heard of the girl's name, but I didn't expect that when I saw it now, it was a young and promising beauty." ”
"I have long heard of Miss Su's reputation, but the living Bodhisattva in Qingyuan Town is really better than seeing it, I look at Miss Su's face, and it will be extraordinary in the future." Master Feng also said with a smile.
Su Mulian smiled a little flattered, she didn't expect her name to be spread so widely, just looking at these old men patting their ass, she didn't feel awkward.
Su Mulian only smiled back politely.
The banquet began quickly, and I just looked at Master Liu standing in his position, holding a wine glass, and said.
"Thank you for coming to Liu's birthday, here I want to thank Miss Su for saving her life, today's longevity peach is also made by Miss Su, Miss Su is very skilled, you can find her to customize."
