Chapter 499: Concubines Come to the Door (2)
"Aunt Ma, you go out and take a look, buy some ready-made things like roast chicken and duck and come back, Yunxue and my sister-in-law have dinner here at noon." Yuchan turned her head and said to Aunt Ma.
Aunt Ma nodded, took the money, and was about to go out. At this time, there was another sound at the door, and Aunt Ma went to open the door, and it turned out to be a young man from the restaurant, who came over with a food box. "The big shopkeeper said, the owner is here today, I'm afraid that the lady's meal can't be prepared. This is a freshly made dish in our restaurant, let the owner try it. ”
Aunt Ma hurriedly took the food box, and then said with a smile, "It just so happens that the old woman is still worried just now." The lady's cousin is here, and I really can't handle this craft. Now it's okay, bother the little brother to take a trip, come in and have a cup of tea. ”
The guy waved his hand, "Auntie, I'm not here." The restaurant is very busy, and I have to hurry back to serve the guests. With that, he turned around and ran.
Aunt Ma was carrying a food box, and it seemed that there were a lot of things in it, and it was quite heavy. Seeing this beside Qi Hu, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Aunt Ma carry it into the house.
"Lady, there are four portions of rice here, so do I need to cook again?" Aunt Ma's voice came from inside the house.
Gu Chengye didn't know that Feng was coming, so he only prepared a meal for four people. Yuchan listened outside and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. This concubine came over, and it stands to reason that she should stay for dinner, but the food sent is obviously not Feng's share. What should I do about this?
Yun Xue smiled when she heard this, "Qi Hu, I'll give you some money, you can go out to eat at noon today." "It's better to just let Feng go, right? Doesn't that offend her? Yun Xue said, then took out the silver money and handed it to Qi Hu. "Go out and eat whatever you want, let's stay here today, go shopping early tomorrow morning and go home."
Feng Shi was a little embarrassed to sit here, this time he heard that he didn't prepare his own food, if he insisted on staying, it would be bad. "Brother and sister, don't let this little brother go out to eat, I'll just go home. There's a lot going on at home, so I'm not here. Feng Shi said, and got up to leave.
Yuchan grabbed Feng, "Sister-in-law, don't go, what time is this?" Let's have some food together. My sister-in-law has never been to me before, and if she leaves today, she really won't look down on me. ”
Yuchan didn't want to leave anything behind, and as soon as her sister-in-law came to the door for the first time, if she didn't leave her for a meal, then she would have to talk about it later. It's just a meal, and she can't afford it, so why complain?
Over there, Qi Hu had already taken the silver money from Yun Xue's hand, and then went out happily. A young man of sixteen or seventeen was originally able to go out to eat when he loved freshness, but it was much better than eating here, and he couldn't be happy.
Here, Aunt Ma set up a table in the house and put all the food on the table. "Lady, let's go into the house and eat."
At this time, the two little dolls were also tired of playing, and Yuchan fed them a few mouthfuls of milk and coaxed them to sleep. Yun Xue took one and helped Yuchan carry the child to the east room and put it down.
"Sister-in-law, come, let's eat." Yuchan saw that her children were sleeping very honestly, so she called Feng, and several people came to the outer room to eat together.
Aunt Ma didn't go with Yun Xue Yuchan and them, but just left a bowl of rice and ate it in the kitchen by herself. Yuchan packed some dishes for Aunt Ma on a plate alone and sent them to the kitchen, "Auntie should eat with us, why do you have to eat here by yourself?" We don't have those rules in our family. ”
"If the lady and the wife are at home on weekdays, that's it. There are guests at home today, why not follow along? Lady go and eat with the guests, don't worry about the old woman anymore. Aunt Ma took the dish and said with a smile.
Yuchan came out of the kitchen and ate with Yun Xue and Feng. Yun Xue has tasted the dishes in the restaurant, but she thinks that it is much more exquisite than when it opened, and the taste is better, so she thinks it is not bad. "Uncle Zhang's craftsmanship is really getting better and better."
Where did Feng go to a restaurant to eat? The dishes in front of me look so delicate that I don't dare to put down the chopsticks. Yuchan hurriedly grabbed a piece of fish and put it in Feng's bowl, "Sister-in-law, this is our own home, you don't have to be polite, you can eat whatever you like, but there are just three of us women, and there are no outsiders, just feel free." ”
Feng Shi nodded, and hurriedly tasted the fish, the taste was fresh and fragrant, and it really couldn't be made at home. "This tastes really good, no wonder the business of that restaurant is very good, just for this dish, it should also be booming." Feng said very sincerely.
"One day my sister-in-law has time, so I will ask Yuchan to take you to the restaurant to eat, these dishes are sent from the restaurant, they are a little cold, and the taste is inevitably worse." Yun Xue said with a smile. Then he also sandwiched some vegetables and put them in Feng's bowl. Yun Xue also saw that this Feng family may be a little cautious, but he is not a bad person. Yuchan now lives in the county, and it would be good if she could have a concubine to take care of her.
A meal, eating can be regarded as a pleasure for the guests and hosts. After lunch, Feng Shi chatted with Yuchan for a few more words, and then said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he instructed Yuchan to discuss the matter of Xiulan's dowry with Gu Chengye.
"Brother and sister, I'm not stingy, but we live alone at the top of the door, where is there no difficulty? I have so much money in my hand, but it's useless. The little sister's dowry, my father and mother were originally prepared, so why do you have to reach out to us now? Feng sighed.
"I wouldn't say it as usual. But now, if your second brother's errand is not done well, he will not be able to keep it. If he has no errands, our own family will be enough to live, where will we have the money to add a dowry to Xiulan? Brother and sister, you have a good talk to the third brother, no matter how much he plans to give, it's better to say hello to us in advance. If we have a good deal, we can look better. ”
Feng Shi was also really embarrassed, so he said so. Last year, the Gu family lived with her for several months, and when they should eat, drink and spend, the Yuan family did not go out at all, and all pointed to the Feng family to take money outside. In that period alone, the Feng family spent a lot of money. Now that my husband's errand can't be saved, I don't know how to live in the future.
Yuchan nodded and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, when Chengye comes back, I'll tell him." Anyway, no matter what Feng Shi said, he hummed and agreed. Everything is waiting for Gu Chengye to come back, and the Gu family's affairs should be handled by the Gu family themselves.
Feng also knew in his heart that even if he wanted to ask Gu Chengye for help, he couldn't rush at this moment, he had to take his time. "Then I'll go, and when my brother and sister are free, they will come to me and sit down. The two of us live in the county, and we should have taken care of each other. Feng Shi was sincere.
Seeing off the Feng family, Yuchan and Yunxue returned to sit in the courtyard. "You say, your sister-in-law is here today, is there anything else? I look, she's not just here for your sister-in-law's dowry. Yun Xue had already seen that this Feng Shi was half-spoken and half-revealed, and it was obvious that there were other words, but he couldn't say them.
"Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with me. Now, all I need to do is raise two children. Yuchan said a little lazily.
Yun Xue burst out laughing, "You, this heart is really big." Okay, that's just right, don't worry about it. ”
Gu Chengye didn't come back in the evening, the restaurant was too busy, waiting for all the guests to leave, and it was already the end of time. Gu Chengye was also tired and uncomfortable, and he knew that Yun Xue would live in his own house at night, so he simply didn't go home and lived directly in the backyard of the restaurant.
Yun Xue and Qi Hu lived in Gu's house, Qi Hu lived in the east wing, Yun Xue and Yuchan lived in the same room, and they could just help coax the little doll.
On the other side, Feng and Gu Chengyuan were lying on the bed, discussing today's events. "I kind of understand today why the business of that restaurant is so good. Not to mention, the dishes they cook are so good and look so good, I can't even bear to eat them. ”
"That's right, now this restaurant is second to none in our county, and many big families love to go there. I estimate that I can earn at least five or six hundred taels a month, which is really a good business to make money. Gu Chengyuan said, also very envious.
"The third child is a blessed one, I originally thought that he would leave the Gu family like this, and I don't know what the days can become? Where did you think that someone's daughter-in-law has a good mother's family, and there are such powerful relatives. Gu Chengyuan said with emotion.
As soon as Feng Shi heard this, his face changed, "What do you mean?" The third daughter-in-law has a good mother's family, but I don't have a good mother's family, right? My mother's family is not good, can you marry me to you? What do you have? Now I think my mother's family is not good, what did you do earlier? Feng turned around angrily and ignored her husband.
"Oh, my good lady, I didn't mean that. My mother's family is very kind to me, and I am very grateful. Gu Chengyuan saw his daughter-in-law like this, and hurriedly coaxed. I'm just saying it casually, you see you're taking it seriously. Aren't we talking about the third child? To tell the truth, we should really get along with the third family in the future, after all, we are brothers, if he has benefits, he will not really ignore us. ”
Feng Shi was just joking with her husband, and when she saw her husband coaxing herself like this, she didn't get angry. "Today I also saw the cousin of the third daughter-in-law, who looks so good-looking, and the clothes she wears are not available in our county. The style of that body is really not ordinary. It's no wonder that the third child has a good life, if I had such a cousin, our family would not have a bad life. ”
