Chapter Twenty-Four: Such Insight
An Yize was born handsome, and with a little disguise, he could get the love of his wife. Some people even began to inquire about his family's situation, thinking of finding a lover for his daughter who was not out of the cabinet.
"Lord Zhao." An Yize suddenly shouted to Zhao Hongyi, "How are you doing lately?" ”
Zhao Hongyi was helpless, so he could only turn around and say, "Young Master An." ”
"I really never expected that Lord Zhao would have such a background, no wonder he could be a county magistrate at a young age."
An Yize's words are nothing more than saying that he, Zhao Hongyi, can only be an official by relying on his background, and there is no real material.
"Young Master An said with a smile." Who knew that Zhao Hongyi was neither angry nor accepted, which surprised An Yize.
"Young Master An, please take a seat." Zhao Hongyi pushed the other party's ill-will aside.
"Mo Xiaoqi can get the right to host the banquet, and it is also thanks to Lord Zhao, right?"
Hearing An Yize say this, Zhao Hongyi's face showed a trace of displeasure: "Young Master An, you don't know Xiaoqi's cooking skills and skills, if you have to attribute all this to my blessings, I won't say anything." ”
"What about her? Still in the kitchen? An Yize looked around, but he couldn't see Mo Xiaoqi.
As soon as An Yize's words fell, he heard a crisp female voice.
"Hongyi."
An Yize turned his face and saw a woman wearing a lotus-colored dress, a few simple hairpins, a light powder on her face, and the confidence between her eyebrows made people feel very comfortable.
That woman is Mo Xiaoqi.
"Boss Mo, long time no see." An Yize greeted first.
Unexpectedly, Mo Xiaoqi skipped him directly, walked up to Zhao Hongyi, and whispered: "Hongyi, thank you for the clothes you prepared for me, I like it very much." ”
When Mo Xiaoqi came out of the kitchen, the maid appeared in front of her with this outfit.
"Ahh Zhao Hongyi was surprised, "Xiaoqi, I'm sorry, it's not me, it's grandma." ”
"It turned out to be Mrs. Li, I will definitely thank her in person." Mo Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "How is it, how is grandma learning to use a wheelchair?" ”
"She liked it very much, and she clamored that she would drive her wheelchair to the streets." Zhao Hongyi is a gentle person, and his speech is also very comfortable.
An Yize, who knew that he was boring, couldn't interject, and said angrily: "The two of you chatted slowly, and I went to the table." ”
Mrs. Li, who everyone was waiting for, finally sat down, and this time it was different from before, she slowly came from the garden to the banquet in a wheelchair.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to my old woman's birthday feast, and nothing else. Let's open the table, this year will not be polite. ”
Having said that, everyone still presented congratulatory gifts one by one. They are all rare treasures, and Mrs. Li actually doesn't need them, but they all happily accept them.
An Yize's position was arranged at the end of the table, and he could tell who made the arrangement with his toes.
But he was clearly not a master of peace, and after pushing glasses with the guests at the table, he shuttled back and forth between the different tables with his glasses.
"At this year's birthday banquet, the most satisfying thing to receive is my wheelchair." Mrs. Li patted the wheelchair and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In fact, everyone had already seen it, but because they didn't understand what it was, they didn't ask each other.
"Old lady, what kind of Karakuri tool are you sitting on? I was able to move. Someone asked aloud.
Mrs. Li replied with a smile on her face: "This is called a wheelchair, and it is specially used by people with waist and leg problems like me." ”
"Where is the old lady's waist and legs inconvenient, I see that the old lady is strong." Immediately someone complimented.
"What is strong, this man, he has to serve the old." Mrs. Li shook her head, she was very clear about her body, her bones hurt from time to time, and thanks to Mo Xiaoqi's diet therapy for nearly a month, she was much more comfortable.
"Today's food was so delicious, much better than what I usually eat, and there are many variety. The old lady's cook, but extraordinary! ”
Rich people are the most leisurely, in addition to being busy enjoying, then they still enjoy.
Regarding enjoyment, the first thing is food, clothing, shelter and transportation. The difference in taste of the dishes is immediately noticeable.
Some of the powerful people who are known for their gluttony on weekdays also have to be surprised by the dishes on the table.
"Haha, it's delicious. However, this is not the work of the cook in my house. Old Madam Li wanted to help Mo Xiaoqi, so she hurriedly gave Zhao Hongyi a look and asked him to pull Mo Xiaoqi over.
Mrs. Li took Mo Xiaoqi's hand and said, "This is Mo Xiaoqi, the owner of Kelaixiang in the city, and his cooking skills are amazing." The dishes on the table today are all from her hands. ”
"Oh? Then Boss Mo can take on another banquet?" Someone immediately asked.
Mo Xiaoqi smiled politely and said loudly: "Of course, of course, I can undertake the banquet as a guest, and I hope everyone can come to cheer." ”
"This Boss Mo, don't talk about your cooking skills, have you seen my wheelchair? It's from her! As soon as these words came out, some people immediately looked at them.
"Come, Xiaoqi, you go to the next table to toast and see if any of the guests need you." Old Madam Li pushed Mo Xiaoqi out.
Zhao Hongyi's eyes were burning, looking at Mo Xiaoqi's hearty, generous and confident appearance, a trace of pride was born in his heart.
Approximately, he is happy that the woman he likes can be praised and liked by others.
"Grandma, do you think it's okay for me to marry Xiaoqi?" Zhao Hongyi asked softly.
Old Madam Li looked surprised and asked rhetorically, "Aren't you afraid of your father's opposition?" ”
"Why should he object, just because Xiaoqi has a bad reputation? I don't care if she has children or how many times she's married. Zhao Hongyi's gaze never left the person in his heart.
"Good boy, the world is difficult." Mrs. Li wanted to dissuade her.
Zhao Hongyi turned his face to look at her, and only said: "Grandma, if a man has children and has married two wives, then if he gets married again, no one will let him not." How can it not fall on a woman? ”
"This ......" may have been surprised to hear such a shocking idea, and Mrs. Li was a little speechless.
"Grandma, I like her. Even if the whole world stops me, I still won't give up. Zhao Hongyi was different from the gentleness of the past, and the determination and confidence on his face at this moment made Mrs. Li nod her head.
"Child, grandma has your back. Xiaoqi is a good boy and deserves your liking. Old Madam Li patted the back of Zhao Hongyi's hand.
Yes, why should a woman be inferior? A man can take a wife and take a concubine again and again. Why should a woman be widowed for the rest of her life?
Old Madam Li looked at Zhao Hongyi beside her, and her eyes couldn't help but redden. If he had such insight as Hongyi back then, maybe she wouldn't be alone until now.
