Chapter 437: Miss Gong is not a good match!
Li Zhensheng raised his hand and patted his younger brother's shoulder, and scolded with a smile, "Don't be such a strange look, there are four brothers in a family, more than 20 people, how can they all sing red-faced?" There's got to be someone who sings blackface, doesn't it?
"It just so happens that I wasn't at home before, it's really something, and others will say that the Wang family taught me badly! Let's let the Wang family carry a pot! β
Li Lao Er knew that the eldest brother didn't want him to be sad, so he quickly put away the sourness in his heart and responded, "Don't worry, eldest brother, I will often go to live with Mr. Wen in the future and listen more to those things in the court." β
"That's right, you don't have to worry about it at home, you can prop up the faΓ§ade of the house first." Li Zhensheng praised his younger brother, and then hugged his little niece, "Let's go, let's go to grandma and see how your mother's banquet is going?" β
With that, they went out.
In the lobby in front, there were more and more guests, smelling the aroma wafting from the back kitchen, and someone couldn't help but ask, "Are there any new dishes today?" β
The young man replied with a smile while serving tea, "No, it's a potpourri private dish, and the second table will be held today." The director brought the old and young of the family to dinner! β
"There are two seats in a row outside the board of directors?" The guest was surprised, and said, "This private dish must not be bad, otherwise the director will not bring his family over to eat a second time with such a picky mouth." β
The young man became more and more proud when he heard this, and replied, "Of course, our chef ancestor has been a royal chef, and he can think about the menu according to the preferences of the guests."
For example, today, the old lady of the Dong family likes to eat dumplings, and our chef wrapped cucumber and egg filling, and the kitchen is cooking. β
The diners were all laughing and talking, and the people of the Dong family had already arrived.
The director asked the old and young in the family to go upstairs first, and then greeted everyone.
Someone asked, "Outside the director, you have come to eat twice in a row, is this private dish really so good?" β
"Of course," Dong Yuanwai nodded and said with a smile, "It's not just that the food is delicious, you don't know yet, this box is called potpourri, and there are famous flowers in it."
"I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, I was worried about what flowers I could get today last night, and I didn't sleep well all night."
Before his words could land, the youngest son of the family had already run down and shouted, "Dad, there is a bonsai sprinkled with golden plums upstairs, and my mother asked me to call you." β
"Really?" Dong Yuanwai hurriedly bowed his hand to everyone, and ran upstairs quickly, I really don't know how he is so fat and how he can move so flexibly.
Everyone downstairs was itchy when they heard it, but the Dong family came out to reunite, and they couldn't be disturbed.
But the guests in the remaining boxes on the third floor, near the water, some of whom were familiar with the directors, took the opportunity to say hello, and then entered the potpourri and saw the pot of sprinkling golden plum with their own eyes.
Sprinkle golden plum is a rare kind of plum blossom, the flowers are luxuriant, delicate and beautiful, most suitable for making potted plants, put on the desk, it is simply the favorite of all readers.
And today, this pot is placed in the middle of the turntable, and it is beautiful alone.
In the corners of the house and in front of the window, there are also four pots of ordinary plum trees, which are packed in small clay jars.
Although it is not as dazzling as sprinkling golden plum, it is also fragrant and faint, which makes people feel good when they smell it.
Just in time for this time, the kitchen began to serve.
Fresh white dumplings, fragrant roast duck, red and bright cherry meat, spicy boiled pork slices, fresh toothy fish balls and mushroom soup......
This made the guests who came to enjoy the flowers regret very much, why didn't they grab this second private dish before.
Otherwise, I won't be swallowing saliva at this time, and I will be hungry for flowers and vegetables again.
The directors pretended to invite them to stay and eat together, of course they couldn't be so uninteresting and disturb the reunion.
So, they politely said goodbye, then went out to catch the young man, and began to book private dishes.
In the back kitchen, Tao Hongying had just finished the last dish, wiped the sweat beads on her forehead, and simply picked up her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
As a result, as soon as she went out, she saw Jia Huan running to report the good news, "Fourth aunt, have you ordered three tables of private dishes?" β
"Really?" Tao Hongying smiled happily, "This is great." β
Of course, craftsmen all over the world are looking forward to making more money and supporting their families, but this kind of recognition makes them even happier.
Mrs. Li and Jiayin were in the wing, and they both walked out when they heard this.
Jiayin hugged her mother's thigh and shouted happily, "My mother is the best!" My mother's cooking is the best! β
Tao Hongying hugged the fat girl and kissed her on the face.
She is the only one in the family who knows best that today's success is at least half of the credit of her daughter.
Without the recipes and those special ingredients and ingredients that her daughter secretly stuffed her, how could there be these novel and delicious dishes.
There are also those famous flowers in the box, the chief housekeeper of the Hou Mansion and Ye Shan ran around, and most of the flowers they bought back were seedlings that did not bloom, or some were just seeds.
But when it was sent to the Ye family's yard and moved out, it was now this kind of blooming appearance that everyone was amazed at.
It can't be said that it is all the magical ability of the girl......
"My family is so good, mother, it's really with you." Tao Hongying sighed and kissed her daughter several times.
Jiayin was shy, nestled on the old lady's shoulder, and twisted around the old lady's neck.
Everyone laughed, and Mrs. Li patted her granddaughter on the back and said angrily, "My family Fu Niu'er has really grown up, and she actually knows how to be shy!" β
Li Lao Er turned sideways to block the cold wind for the old lady, and proposed, "Mother, there's nothing wrong here, or let's go back first, right?" β
Li Zhensheng also hurriedly agreed, "Yes, mother, here is me and Jiahuan." β
Mrs. Li didn't insist, and said with a smile, "Okay, then let's go back first." β
Soon, Hayama drove the carriage to the back door, and the family sat on it and went back to Broken Gold Beach.
At this time, everyone in Broken Gold Beach has also begun to winter.
Except for the old men in charge of patrolling, who gathered together at the base of the sheltered wall to bask in the sun and gossip, there was no one outside.
After entering the house, Mrs. Li called Mama He to take care of Jiayin to wash her hands and change her clothes.
Taking advantage of this gap, she entered the second child's room and asked her son in a low voice.
"Second child, I've been thinking about asking you for the past two days. You...... Do you intend to marry again? That Miss Gong ......"
Without waiting for the old lady to finish speaking, Li Lao Er's face was already red and he waved his hand vigorously.
"Mother, you think too much! I didn't think about marrying again! And even if you marry again, you have to find someone of the same age, how can you find that Gong girl, she is not a few years older than Jiaren! β
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still puzzled and asked, "Since you are not interesting to Miss Gong, how can you take care of her in every way...... We thought you were tempted! β
Li Laoer's face was so hot that he could fry eggs, so he hurriedly responded, "Mother, Miss Gong's father was also killed while going out to study, so their family is slowly declining."
"I think of our family because of the eldest brother, who has not suffered less, so I feel that their sister and brother are pitiful, so I maintain them more. And I keep the etiquette, and there is no irregularity at all! β
