After everyone watched the scene of "Dreaming", they saw the thin and tall manager coming and respectfully inviting the five of them to move to the private room to prepare for the banquet.

The fifty-five scenes of "The Peony Pavilion" took two days to complete the performance, even if it is the now popular deleted version, it takes more than nine hours, even if the audience can sit still, the actors can't stand it, so when Bai Wenyu made an appointment, he only set a few famous scenes, and when he finished eating, if a few people were happy, they could come back and watch again.

The five of them were taken by the manager to a quaint and elegant room, and when they were seated, the waiter of the clubhouse came in with a plate of dishes.

The hairy crabs provided by Shen Chen will not stick to the mud, and the female crabs that have been bred for more than three years are all more than four taels, the reason why Bai Wenyu said to Cao Aiqing just now that the heat is not enough, is completely because the crabs are only started after waiting for everyone to do it, although the hairy crabs are simple, but this kind of size, at least have to be steamed on high heat for 15 minutes, and then simmered for more than 10 minutes.

Of course, a table of banquet dishes naturally can't be the only one, not to mention that this is still a crab banquet full of late autumn flavors.

In fact, before this, the waiter had already served five cases of "caviar crab roe stewed official swallow" as the first side dish, and the Cantonese chef had made good use of expensive ingredients to match each other, for example, after that, there was another dish of "crab roe with abalone", which was completely a murderous and powerful combination, and the abalone used borneol sugar when soaking, and the abalone was sweet, and the crab roe was really delicious.

Although the port city is dominated by Cantonese cuisine, as a thriving port city, the rich recipes also reflect the city's current temperament, and the appetizing desserts prepared at the banquet are also based on crab, but it is a new dish called "Avocado Drunk Crab Salad".

Avocados native to the Americas and local hairy crabs, two seemingly incompatible deliciousness, actually produced the most interesting chemical reaction, the pleasing green avocado wrapped in drunk delicious crab meat, and then poured with special sauce, a bite, the soft glutinous avocado, the sweetness of the crab meat, burst out in the mouth, making people instantly happy.

However, the crab is a thing, and the food is still the fun of peeling the skin and removing the bones, as for the way to eat, it is divided into two kinds: "Wen Eat" and "Wu Eat", and on this occasion, the former will naturally be chosen.

The waiter put on the hammer, scissors, spoon, needle, scrape and other copper "eight crabs" in turn, the crab is cold, so the side has already poured warm high-quality rice wine, with a table of exquisite dishes and the simple environment of the private room, it really makes people experience this ancient oriental country, the unique aesthetic charm in the diet.

He Tianran is naturally familiar with these tools, not to mention his parents.

Cao Aiqing is a native of Hong Kong City, and since she was a child, she has not eaten anything in the lake and sea like crabs, and the so-called "eight crabs" she has a set at home, but she rarely uses it, after all, ordinary people eat a crab, why do you need to be so troublesome?

Therefore, she only used a pair of scissors and a pair of chopsticks as an aid to eating crabs.

On the contrary, it was the cool performance that made He Tianran a little surprised, he wanted to teach his girlfriend how to use these things, but he didn't expect the girl to use these tools to look good, although the movements were a little rusty, but at least he knew the purpose of the tools, so as not to blacken his eyes.

"You don't need this stuff to eat crabs in your hometown, right? Where did you learn it? ”

He Tianran asked curiously.

Wen Liang proudly cut off a crab claw with scissors, then raised his eyebrows, and said softly: "The etiquette teacher in the crew taught me, and I will take over a palace fighting drama in the future, when I just debuted, I was not famous, so the crab banquet hosted by the queen in the plot was secretly poisoned and the concubine who fought for favor was me!" ”

After that, she picked out the meat in the crab claws, put it into He Tianran's bowl, and deliberately said the lines in her mouth:

"If you don't live up to Lushan, don't eat crabs and live up to your stomach, don't be stunned, don't be stunned, eat quickly, if you feel unwell, you can use salt water to induce vomiting~~"

“……”

This ghost!

He Tianran couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, and finally held back a smile on his face and put the crab meat into his mouth.

The whispers of the two vaguely reached the ears of He Panshan, who was sitting closely, although he heard a rough idea, but he felt more and more that Wen Liang was really a wonderful person, but the difficult place was also here.

He Panshan warned He Tianran before that Wen Yatou was not suitable for him, because his personality was too boring and passive, and it was difficult to resist this kind of bright and cheerful girl, others were good to him, and it was difficult for him to distinguish whether others were just playing or really loving him, and he could only be led by the nose at that time.

And there was no further obstruction at the beginning, because even if He Tianran was planted in Wen Liang's hands, for He Panshan's father, in the final analysis, it was just a trivial matter for this unsuccessful son to suffer a loss and grow a trench.

However, he didn't expect that this incident would have a big aftermath......

Of course, thankfully, this kind of thing has never happened in this world.

In the past year, He Panshan watched He Tianran go against his will and embarked on a completely different path, he was angry and a little emotional, because he saw some shining points in He Tianran that he had never seen before.

It's true that he doesn't need to be sheltered by himself, and it's also true that he can be admitted to the film school by his own ability, and his son likes to work against himself, but every step is very steady.

From the beginning of He Tianran's breakup, I knew that he changed his temperament and went to work in a bar to save money, apply for art training classes, and later participated in the art examination, prepared for the college entrance examination, and went ashore with excellent results, and now he can refute himself with eloquent words......

All these things had to make He Panshan begin to re-examine He Tianran, and the reason why Xiao Wen and Xiao Cao, two excellent little girls, were able to fall in love with this unsuccessful son must have been because they saw the advantages of their father, who had not been found in He Tianran before, rather than simply knowing that he had a rich father, and his likes and love would come so materially......

Time is indeed the best way to test people's hearts.

The two fathers and sons seemed to like the dish of crab roe with Guan Yan, and when they saw that He Tianran's bowl was empty, He Panshan also picked up the bowl, and after the two mouthfuls, he snapped his fingers and beckoned, and the manager waiting outside the door immediately pushed the door and walked to him.

"Mr. He."

He Panshan gently wiped his lips with a tissue and said indifferently:

"You can come to the crab roe official swallow again, your chef is very good, but it's a little stingy, don't follow the 'routine', just get a sea bowl and put it here, it's not enough for us to serve it ourselves...... Also, what kind of caviar do you have, you can put it when you need to, how many years have you been breeding sturgeon, and it's still so expensive. ”

The manager nodded: "Yes, yes, is there anything else Mr. He needs?" ”

"No, it's not enough to call you anymore."

"Okay."

The manager gave an order over the walkie-talkie and went down respectfully.

It didn't take long for a small "pot" of caviar crab roe stewed Guan Yan in a soup bowl to be served......

Sometimes, father's love is so subtle and direct......

"You eat more of this, big supplement."

He Panshan subconsciously gave an order as usual at home.

It's just that the wife and children at this banquet just don't usually listen to him at home......

He Tianran and Bai Wenyu were unmoved by his kindness, Cao Aiqing was very obedient, replied "good uncle", and then silently took a sip of his share.

Wen Liang looked at her boyfriend, and then at He Panshan, who looked depressed, and her heart was like a mirror, sneering at the father and son all the time, aren't they tired?

She turned the food in front of her, picked up He Tianran's empty bowl and put a bowl in his hand, and then she said to He Panshan:

"Uncle, bowl."

He Panshan was still eating abalone depressedly, and when he heard this, he "wooed" in his mouth and handed over the bowl.

Wen Liang put the things away, and asked if Bai Wenyu needed it.

"No need Xiao Wen, Ai Qing and I only ate a little, you can put it away, let's come by ourselves later."

"Okay."

Wen Liang was obedient and no longer busy, but she still quietly pushed her elbow against Dinghe Tianran and pouted towards his bowl, meaning: "Eat!" ”

He Tianran knew her intentions, and wanted He Panshan to have a step down, and such a big boss could speak, at least no one could take care of it......

No way, the boy picked up the soup spoon and scooped two spoonfuls into his mouth, the caviar was mixed with official swallow and crab roe, slightly with his tongue and upper teeth, it melted in his mouth, the faint aroma of hazelnut and cream burst out in the mouth, plus a little just right saltiness, the taste was extraordinarily mellow and delicate, and it was evocative.

"Is it delicious?"

Wen Liang asked knowingly, and everyone at the table could hear it.

"Also...... It's ok......"

He Tianran smacked his lips and replied.

"Hey, it's true that wild boars can't eat chaff......"

He Panshan scolded with a smile, picked up the rice wine in his hand, squinted his eyes and took a sip.

Wen Liang laughed in her heart, she understood that the father and son were really machismo, and they had to be coaxed, his father was actually waiting for his son's words, but He Tianran didn't say it, it was like being angry, he obviously thought it was delicious, and the word "okay" popped out after a long time, and it was his father, and he had already slapped it over.

Bai Wenyu saw Wen Liang's thoughts of pushing her son to the other side of He Panshan, and she looked at Cao Aiqing sideways, only to see that this girl was eating crabs quietly and skillfully.

She ate the crab leg first, cut the crab thigh from both ends, and used the crab's calf to insert it just right, put the meat out, and then put it into the beautiful and ruddy lip flap and sucked it gently, and then put the crab leg that she had eaten, one by one, on the plate, the whole process looked smooth and pleasing to the eye, and was not affected by what happened at the banquet table.

Bai Wenyu smiled slightly, and her eyes fell on her son.

"Natural."

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Mom has been thinking about your understanding of "The Peony Pavilion" just now, do you think Tang Xianzu's love is the most affectionate and sexual, but what about yours?"

"Mine what?"

"What do you think of your love?"

“……”

Sooner or later, it will come.

For a while, Wen Liang and Cao Aiqing's expressions became a little subtle.

"Naturally, what you said just now, my mother feels that you agree with Tang Xianzu's concept of love, but if you really uphold this concept and put it in your life, how do you do it? Is it like Liu Mengmei and Du Liniang to be more affectionate than Jin Jian, or is it a more tactful way to look at and deal with love problems? ”

Bai Wenyu added again, she asked this question very cleverly, as if it was just a follow-up extension of He Tianran's remarks just now, but as long as this topic was mentioned, then the boy would not be able to avoid Wen and Cao no matter what.

He Tianran was in a dilemma in an instant, he couldn't overturn his previous remarks, if he overturned it, then what he wanted to express to his parents, to Wen Liang, to Ai Qing, would be meaningless.

However, if he adheres to the previous point of view, then how can he explain his feelings for Cao Aiqing in the end?

He really loved Cao Aiqing, there is no doubt about it.

But he also loves warmth, there is no doubt about it.

But the difficulty is that Liu Mengmei and a Du Liniang fall in love with each other, which will become a century-old love classic.

But He Tianran fell in love with the two Du Liniang, which was undoubtedly a curse that made him miserable.

Wen Liang and Cao Aiqing will not stand up to speak for He Tianran at this moment, because they are very sober about this, even if the positions of the two girls are different at this family banquet, but they can get together, and they remain safe on the surface, waiting for it, which is the intention under this question.

"Boom!"

It's just that at this moment, there was a sudden loud noise, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table jumped one after another, and everyone looked at it in amazement, it was He Panshan who slapped his palm on the table.

His face was pale, his eyes were staring at his ex-wife, his face was full of suppressed anger, and he said in a low voice:

"Bai Wenyu, can you stop the meeting, the two girls here are fine, do you need to ask?"

It doesn't matter how He Tianran answers this question.

The important thing is that the ex-wife just wants to use this occasion to ridicule herself by taking advantage of her son's current situation.

Faced with her ex-husband's sudden attack, the intellectual Bai Wenyu's face was light and light, she didn't pay attention to He Panshan's question, but said to the two girls:

"You don't like such a man who pretends to be confused, do you?"

The two girls were silent.

Then she turned to He Tianran again and said softly:

"Naturally, you shouldn't be a man like this, right?"

With a trick of strength, if there is a needle hidden in the cotton, it makes He Panshan, who is calling for wind and rain in the sea of business, look so incompetent.

He Panshan is not without a stomach, if this kind of words are replaced by an ordinary person, it is completely painless.

But when this sentence is uttered by a person who once loved deeply, it will be extremely fatal......

A table of crab feast, in an instant, is the dark clouds rolling, the mountain rain is coming.

He Panshan's tiger eyes widened, and he was about to have a seizure, when a call from his son suddenly came from his ears.

"Dad......"

He stopped the momentum, turned his head, and looked at He Tianran, who was shy and cowardly in the past, but his eyes were exceptionally clear at the moment.

The teenager had something to say.

"Mom, we'...... It's been a long time since we've been together as a family, can you tell me one thing before I answer your question? ”

Bai Wenyu didn't expect her son to ask herself.

"What?"

He Tianran said bluntly: "What kind of mentality do you have to ask such a question that makes your son feel embarrassed on such an occasion?" ”

Bai Wenyu frowned, "Natural, I'm ...... for you"

"I know you're good for me."

He Tianran preemptively spoke his mother's words, and added:

"I know, you don't want me to be like my father...... But you can tell me this in private......"

"Naturally, you just said so much, I just asked, you don't want to answer, and your mother won't force you."

"But some questions, asked out, are much more important than how they are answered, aren't they?"

"What do you mean? Is this the way you talk to your mother? ”

He Tianran's repeated questioning finally made Bai Wenyu's face gloomy.

"Mom, if you were really good for me, you wouldn't have asked me this kind of question knowing that my ex-girlfriend and my current girlfriend were present together......

What do you want to do? Embarrass Dad? Let me not repeat your mistakes?

And you don't seem to have thought about what the consequences will be if I don't answer this question well......

Because you never cared about my feelings, after you divorced your father, you only had hatred for this family. ”

“……”

Bai Wenyu retorted with a heavy face: "Naturally, didn't you call Ai Qing this time?" ”

He Tianran hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and finally said quietly: "Yes, Mom, but you see, you still didn't miss the opportunity to ask this question after all......"

A dull silence permeated the dining table.

Now, whether it is Cao Aiqing or Wen Liang, just thinking about He Tianran being born in such a family, he can feel an unprecedented depression in his heart.

Just because whether it is Bai Wenyu with a loving face and gentle questions; Or He Panshan, who is angry at the moment and is trampled on with sore feet, they seem to love He Tianran very much, but in fact, no one really cares about his feelings......

Selfish.

It is a common trait between He Tianran and his parents in the past.
