Chapter 177: It's just a light meal
Zhong Yihan said: "Although this is a good opportunity to resolve the conflict, but your father's change of attitude is too abrupt, I think there is a ...... in it" The words behind it are too unpleasant, Zhong Yihan stopped talking.
However, even if Zhong Yihan didn't say it, Lu Xiyi could guess what he meant: "You suspect that my father is a weasel who is unkind to the chickens, right?" ”
Zhong Yihan nodded yes.
"I'm the same as you think, but I'm not afraid! Isn't it just going to have a light meal with my father, what is there to worry about? Two peach blossoms smiled at the corners of Lu Xiyi's mouth.
Lu Mingde is Lu Xiyi's father, even if there is a conspiracy, he can't ambush the knife and axe behind the screen and kill Lu Xiyi, right?
"I'll go with you." Zhong Yihan didn't mean to joke at all.
Lu Xiyi looked at him with a serious look in his eyes, and his heart was warm: "Thank you, eldest son, but I don't think it's needed." ”
"Yes!" Zhong Yihan's words had a non-negotiable tone, and Lu Xiyi was also shocked in his heart: Zhong Yihan usually speaks, but he is not so domineering! "You resolve the conflict with your father inside, and I'll watch outside to see who dares to play a conspiracy."
And so it was settled. The next day, Lu Xiyi and Zhong Yihan came to Qingfeng Restaurant. The reason why it is called Qingfeng Restaurant is because the restaurant faces the river, there was once a great poet upstairs, facing the window, facing the river, chanting two lines of poetry, one of which is "the evening breeze comes for thousands of miles, and the breeze falls on thousands of homes", so the host changed the name of his restaurant to "Qingfeng Restaurant" to attract guests.
It is indeed a pleasant thing to sit in the pavilion and open the window to drink and eat. If it weren't for Lu Mingde, who was the five-rank official of the imperial court, the owner of the restaurant would have left him such a small pavilion and replaced it with other ordinary people, even if he had money, he would not have been able to book such a good position.
Lu Xiyi walked into the pavilion, there was no wine and food on the wine table, Lu Mingde was facing the water, drinking black tea, his tangled face seemed to have something in his heart, even Lu Xiyi walked into the pavilion, Lu Mingde didn't find it, Lu Xiyi had to cough twice.
"Xiyi! Sit down, sit down! Lu Mingde hurriedly stood up and pointed to the opposite position, this kind of enthusiasm is only like this when he receives superior bureaucrats.
Lu Xiyi stroked the pigtail hanging on his chest, sat down with a loud horn, his eyes chased the cruise ship on the river, and asked lightly: "What, is there something wrong with me?" ”
"Xiaoxi, what you said is so wrong!" Lu Mingde's eyes rolled, and the little guy standing next to him left, and went to ask the boss to serve the food immediately. "You and I have a father-daughter relationship, is there something wrong with us to have a meal together? In the future, I will have nothing to do in the court, or I will ask you to come here for dinner, or I will go to your winery, what do you think? ”
Lu Xiyi didn't believe that Lu Mingde would change: "Yes, yes, but I'm really afraid that your lady from the main house will come over and pull your ears back." ”
In a word, Lu Mingde's face was red, his right hand was put to his mouth, and he coughed embarrassedly. Lu Xiyi was wondering why Lu Mingde was suddenly so embarrassed, and suddenly a fragrant breeze hit his nose, and there was a sound of rustling behind the lady's screen.
It's her! Lu Xiyi's heart sank, and he was not happy when he saw Mrs. Lu. Fortunately, Lu Ruoling didn't follow her, otherwise Lu Xiyi would have stood up and left immediately.
Lu Xiyi really didn't guess wrong, Lu Mingde invited her to Qingfeng Restaurant, it was actually Mrs. Lu's idea. Since it was Mrs. Lu's idea, this meal was not so simple. Lu Xiyi secretly prepared a countermeasure.
"Xiyi, I thought you wouldn't come, since you can come, I can see that you still cherish the father-daughter relationship with Mingde." Mrs. Lu sat next to Lu Mingde and poked him in the waist, "Mingde, have you served the food?" ”
Lu Mingde nodded: "I've already called someone to urge, I guess I'll come in a while." ”
"That's good!" Mrs. Lu smiled at Lu Xiyi's face, presumably the gloomy and vicious face in the past was like two people. "Xiyi, this is Qingfeng Tower, and the most famous thing is fish! The fish here are freshly caught from the river, and the meat is delicious and tender. Wait a minute, you taste it. ”
Lu Xiyi kept staring at Mrs. Lu to see what her intentions were after the clouds and mountains were foggy, but so far, Lu Xiyi couldn't figure it out.
Mrs. Lu suddenly blamed herself again: "Oh, I shouldn't have appeared, disturbing the conversation between your father and daughter." In fact, this is a polite remark, and most people will say "don't worry".
"If you think it's bothering us to talk, let's go!" Lu Xiyi didn't give Mrs. Lu any face.
Suddenly, Mrs. Lu's cheeks were crimson, like an eighteen-year-old girl. She scolded in her heart, Lu Xiyi, when I ask for your wine-making method, I will definitely humiliate you!
"Mingde, if it doesn't have my business, I'll go back first." Mrs. Lu made a gesture to leave.
Lu Mingde grabbed her sleeve: "Don't go, Xiyi is joking with you!" ”
The two sang and harmonized, and they were really flawless. The corners of Lu Xiyi's mouth curved like a melon arc, with disdain and contempt. I thought to myself, they were really calm, and they said so much nonsense, but they haven't gotten to the point yet.
At this time, Xiao Er served various dishes to the wine table, and the delicious fish soup came to his nose, seducing his appetite. Mrs. Lu stabbed Lu Mingde's waist again, and Lu Mingde understood, scooped a bowl of fish soup for Lu Xiyi, and put a spoon.
"Xiyi, drink a bowl of fish soup." Lu Mingde handed over the bowl.
Lu Xiyi pushed his hand, his face showing disgust: "I hate the smell of fish since I was a child, you are a father, don't you know?" ”
Lu Mingde was embarrassed again.
"Hehe, Mingde has to deal with a lot of court affairs every day, and he must have forgotten it." Mrs. Lu didn't smile at her, and the corners of her mouth and scarlet eyes were very disobedient. She coughed and said to Lu Xiyi again, "Since you don't drink fish soup, then eat something else." ”
Lu Xiyi touched his stomach: "I'm still full!" Oops, I remember that Gonggong Kun is going to come to get tribute wine today, and I still have two jars left unbrewed! If you don't have anything to do, I'll go back first. "Actually, Gonggong Kun didn't come to fetch wine today, but Lu Xiyi just wanted Lu Mingde and Mrs. Lu to show their intentions.
A weak hand rested on Lu Xiyi's wrist, and along this hand, Lu Xiyi saw Mrs. Lu's seemingly dignified but infinitely scheming face. I don't know why, as soon as I saw Mrs. Lu's face, Lu Xiyi thought of his dead mother. Grief and anger made her blood surge, and she really wanted to raise her slap and slap it over, so that Mrs. Lu could experience the feeling of pain.
