269.Confession (I)

After Jingru listened to her man's introduction to Zhou Xiaobai's life experience, her eyes were different at this time, and she was a little cringe, no longer the hearty and generous she was just now, and said cautiously: "Cousin, please drink tea and eat snacks." ”

Zhou Xiaobai watched Jingru's expression change, hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, and grabbed her hand with both hands, "Sister-in-law, don't do this." My mother gave birth to a daughter of mine,

I don't have any brothers and sisters, and since I was a child, I have been very envious of other girls to have an older brother to take care of, and I also wish I could have an older brother. After meeting my cousin today, I felt very cordial,

I also hope that you will treat me as your own sister in the future, don't pay attention to these things, I still like the way you just looked hearty and atmospheric. ”

"This ......" Jingru turned her head sideways to look at her man again, and her eyes were full of inquiry.

Sanzang nodded, touched his daughter-in-law's jade hand, and said with a smile: "You just listen to Xiaobai, they are all their own sisters, and she is also very eager for family affection. ”

"Huh! I listen to you. Jingru understood, turned her head to Zhou Xiaobai and said, "Sister, I'll be honest with you, I'm also tired and uncomfortable talking to you like that just now, it's better to be like this." He chuckled.

Zhou Xiaobai was also infected by Jingru's unpretentious smile, no longer restrained, took her hand and whispered about Sanzang, and the two whispered about it, laughing from time to time.

Sanzang couldn't interject and felt a little bored, sat up straight, turned around, and found that Xiao Dai was sitting on the sofa opposite him, holding two rods and needles, and was learning to knit wool with Jingru's sister-in-law Liu Yuzhi.

Looking at a small piece of fabric full of holes under her rod needle, he picked it up and looked at it, smiled and asked her in English: "Xiao Dai, what are you weaving?" ”

"Bib, it's getting cold, I want to weave a scarf for my uncle."

"Well, it's a nice weave." Sanzang really couldn't evaluate, so he had to say perfunctorily.

"Where, where? I haven't knitted well enough, and I have to keep trying. Dai shook her head.

Sanzang was stunned for a moment, yes, the little beauty in another city has learned to be modest, and remembered the head of the Workers' Song and Dance Troupe, Zhu Wen, "Xiao Dai, do you want to learn to dance?" ”

"What kind of dance?"

"It's the song and dance drama we watched in the morning, and the head of the troupe there has taken a fancy to you and wants to invite you to learn to dance, how about it? Interested? ”

"My sister in there dances very well, I've never learned it, can I do it?" Xiao Dai thought for a moment and asked very unconfidently.

"No problem, someone will teach you, you can start with a small role, slowly accumulate experience, maybe you will become popular in the future, and you can also appear on the Broadway stage." Sanzang flickered hard, as long as Xiao Dai didn't want to learn to shoot with him, he could do anything.

"Can I really?" Xiao Dai began to fantasize after hearing this, and she also knew the name of Broadway.

"No problem, you can, you're the brightest star in the night sky." Sanzang clenched the fist of his right hand and said to Xiao Dai with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll try it, but I'll have to weave this scarf before I go over." Xiao Dai looked at the fabric in her hand and was reluctant to give up, this was a loving gift from herself to her uncle.

"Okay." Sanzang doesn't matter, as long as the flickering is in place.

At this time, He Daqing walked in slowly, "Owner, I heard Xiaomei say that there are guests at home, what is the charter for dinner?" ”

"Today, there are distinguished guests who stay for dinner, you can make a few simple and easy-to-make Tan family dishes, so that you can try them."

"Understood." He Daqing didn't say much, spit out two words and went out.

Sanzang saw that Xiaobai and his daughter-in-law were chatting hotly, and he didn't have the heart to go to the courtyard, he felt bored, and he drank some wine at noon, so he was a little sleepy, so he simply ran back to the bedroom to sleep.

In the evening, at the beginning of the lanterns, Sanzang sat on the main seat of the long table in the restaurant, Zhou Xiaobai sat on the upper right, his daughter-in-law Jingru sat on the upper left, the children and Xiaodai sat in their usual positions, Huaihua was not there, and she went back to Luogunan Lane to accompany her mother at her own home.

Zhou Xiaobai looked at the table full of dishes, dumbfounded, and counted them carefully, there were as many as ten dishes, fortunately, the portion of each dish was not much, and it was almost the same for a few people to eat, but there were a few dishes that he had never seen before, and he couldn't name them.

Sanzang looked at Zhou Xiaobai's surprised appearance, and said with a smile: "Today's time is a bit rushed, and I can't cook a lot of dishes, so I just eat a little." ”

"Cousin, you are too extravagant, these dishes are still simple, there are several I have never seen, let alone eaten." Zhou Xiaobai shook his head.

"Okay, let me give you a brief introduction, these are the clear soup swallow vegetables, braised Yoshihama abalone, grilled Guansai ginseng, these you have probably seen shrimp cocoon, steamed mandarin fish,

Dried scallop crispy duck, white fungus vegetarian stew, pearl soup, may be different, the taste is not the same, these two vegetables do not need me to introduce. After Sanzang finished speaking, he picked up the public express in front of him,

Sandwiched a little food and put it in Zhou Xiaobai's bowl, "Come, you try this Kansai ginseng, I bought it from Dongwu." Daughter-in-law, children, let's get started. ”

Half an hour later, in the living room, Sanzang poured a cup of Longjing tea and handed it to Zhou Xiaobai, "A spoonful of food, a scoop of drink, cousin is full?" Not full? ”

Zhou Xiaobai took the teacup and chuckled, "Full, full, if I'm not full, then I'll not become a big rice bucket?" ”

"What do you think of tonight's dish? Can you get used to eating? ”

"It's so good, it's so delicious, I still have a lot of memories of it. To be honest, I've seen a lot of the world, but I've never eaten such a delicious dish. I've also heard of the name of Tan's cuisine, but I've never seen it, and today I can be regarded as tasting it. ”

"Today's time is too rushed, in a few days, I will ask Uncle He to fully prepare, and I will invite you to eat a few different Tan family dishes." Sanzang said with a smile.

"Okay." Zhou Xiaobai felt that Brother Huang's eyes were very kind to him, like a family member, so he was not polite to him.

"Sit, sit, sit! Let's rest for a while, and I'll send you home. ”

"Eh, cousin, I think your chef is not ordinary, where did you find it?"

"He's a man with a story." Sanzang told Zhou Xiaobai everything about He Daqing.

"First I couldn't help myself, and then I didn't know anyone, and I was greedy for small profits, which is sad and lamentable." Zhou Xiaobai was also embarrassed when he heard it.

"Forget it, these are all personal tragedies of the old society, and we don't need to be here to grieve for them."

"Yes, too."

Sanzang looked at his watch, "It's not too early, I'll drive you back." ”

"Okay."

More than ten minutes later, Sanzang just drove the car to the door of Zhou Xiaobai's single-family villa, and the tall soldier who had looked for him in the morning walked over and saluted a military salute, "The big boss's wife has instructed, you will go to the living room to meet her when you come back." ”

Sanzang wondered a little in his heart, hadn't the matter been discussed clearly, could it be that he blamed himself for sending Zhou Xiaobai back too late? It's not like, "Okay, I'll park the car first." ”

Zhou Xiaobai was also confused when he heard it.

Sanzang followed Zhou Xiaobai into the living room of her house, only Zhou's mother was sitting on the sofa alone, holding a book in her hand, looking at herself and Zhou Xiaobai with a smile at the moment, and pointed to the sofa opposite her, "Xiao Huang, come, sit here." Xiaobai, you go and pour Xiao Huang a cup of tea. ”

"Huh!"

Sanzang sat down on the sofa and looked at Zhou's mother suspiciously, "I don't know what Auntie is looking for me?" ”
