Chapter 60: The Feast
Luo Jing followed Mu Ningyi to the patriarch's courtyard, where Mu Yang had been waiting for a long time.
"Say hello to my father-in-law!" Luo Jing said politely.
"Daughter-in-law, don't be polite, come to the seat!" the old patriarch looked at Luo Jing and said with concern.
"Come, let me introduce you, this is Gu Baidong, the head of the Gu family, one of the five great families in the Tuyue Continent. Old Patriarch Mu touched his beard and smiled slightly.
Luo Jing got up and said to Gu Baidong: "Junior Luo Jing has seen Gu Da Master, you are fine!"
"This is Ling's daughter-in-law! I heard that you have the talent of drawing talismans, and now you are a ninth-level talisman master," Gu Baidong said with a smile.
After hearing this, Luo Jing said with a smile: "Master Gu, let you make fun of it, that is not worth mentioning." ”
"This Mu Yang is also in the late stage of Jindan now! You two have such good qualifications, no wonder Mu Shao is also a good qualification, it is really blue out of blue, and better than one blue. Gu Baidong said jokingly.
At this time, Mu Yang spoke up and said with a smile: "Master Gu, you are laughing, Yi'er is actually not as good as you think, and she still needs to be tempered." ”
"Young people, it's time to hone and hone. Come, Ah Qin, these two are Mu Shao's parents. Gu Bai turned around and said to Gu Tianqin, who was sitting on the side.
"Lyra has met Uncle Mu, Aunt Luo. Greetings to both of you!" Gu Tianqin felt a little embarrassed! Thinking in her heart, although she was pretending, she still felt this way.
Mu Yang sat in his seat and nodded slightly.
Luo Jing said: "Miss Gu is generous, seeing you reminds me of "Pretty Like a Peach of Three Springs, Pure as a Chrysanthemum of Nine Autumns" is really worthy of being the descendant of Gu Da's family. ”
Hearing Luo Jing elevate herself like this, Gu Tianqin said a little shyly: "Aunt Luo, you are so exalted to me, how can I be as good as you say." ”
"Haha! Don't scare Miss Gu away. Mu Yang laughed at this time.
The old patriarch saw that everyone was silent for a while, and then he said loudly, "Come, let's go to the table to eat." ”
At this time, the middle hall of the old patriarch's courtyard was filled with a whole table of spiritual meat and spiritual vegetables.
"Master Gu and Miss Gu don't be polite! These are specially prepared for the two of you. The old patriarch said.
"Thank you Patriarch Mu for your hospitality, Ah Qin, you eat more. Gu Baidong said
The old patriarch then said, "This roast duck is made by the new cook, how about you eat it?"
At this time, Gu Baidong picked up a piece of roast duck meat and said, "Well, look at this red color," after speaking, he put it in his mouth and ate it, and then said: "The meat is delicate, the taste is mellow, fat but not greasy, not bad!"
After Ning Yi heard this, he said: "It seems that Gu Da is very good at roast duck. ”
"Mu Shao, I won't tell you the truth, there are several roast duck restaurants under our Gu family, and every year I ask them to do a roast duck competition, which will be more holes over time!" Gu Baidong said confidently.
"It turns out that Gu Da is an insider, and he has been looking up for a long time!" Mu Ningyi said with a smile.
"Brother Mu has won the prize. Gu Baidong said.
"Okay, don't talk about roast duck, there are also soft beef intestines, sheepskin filigree, bear's paws, cold beef, called chicken, etc......" said the old patriarch as he ate.
Gu Baidong looked at the rich table of meat and vegetables in front of him, and thought in his heart: It seems that the old patriarch Mu attaches great importance to this blind date, which means that he attaches importance to his granddaughter, and his mood blossoms in an instant.
He smiled and said to the old patriarch: "Mu Lao, you have prepared so many dishes, where can we finish eating?"
"Let's eat slowly! I can finish it with less food, and I have prepared a pot of spirit wine that has been treasured for many years, and we will have a good time later." ”
Luo Jing got up and sandwiched some cold beef for Tianqin and said, "Miss Gu, don't eat naked, eat more vegetables, come, eat some cold beef and see." ”
Gu Tianqin was a little flattered and said, "Thank you, Aunt Luo, I'll just come by myself." ”
"You're so polite, eat more!"
Ning Yi looked at Tianqin's embarrassed appearance on the side and said to Luo Jing: "Mother, this is the first time Tianqin has come to Mufu, and he will always be a little shy. ”
"Yi'er, you good boy, now you will speak for Tianqin!" Luo Jing said with a slight smile.
"Mother......" Ning Yi shouted.
"Alright, let's hurry up and eat. ”
.........
"Patriarch father-in-law, Gu Da is in charge, I'm full, you guys use it slowly, I want to go out and walk around. Luo Jing got up and said politely.
"Mother, why did you eat so fast?"
"Well, then don't go far. The old patriarch said aloud.
"Aunt Luo, please wait for me. ”
"Grandpa, Old Patriarch Mu, Uncle Mu, Ning Yi, you all use it slowly, and I'm done eating. Gu Tianqin said to a table of people.
"Ah Qin, let's talk to your Aunt Luo and enhance your relationship!" Gu Baidong said
"Got it, grandpa, don't drink too much. ”
Gu Tianqin got up and walked towards Luo Jing.
"Grandpa, where is the spirit wine you mentioned, I'll pour it for you. Mu Ningyi didn't know what to talk to the three elders in front of him, so he said out loud.
"Ah Yi, just put the white jade bottle in the cabinet on the left and lean against the stone pillar, be careful when you take it out, this bottle is very slippery. After the old patriarch finished speaking, he ordered someone to bring a few wine glasses 🍸.
Ning Yi eye-catchingly found a piece of relatively coarse cloth, and it was more reassuring to wrap it in a white jade wine jug and pick it up.
Ning Yi took it to the table and poured four small glasses of spirit wine.
"Yi'er, drink a little, too!" Mu Yang said with a smile.
Gu Baidong listened to Mu Yang say: "Yes! The boy wants to drink some spiritual wine to exercise himself, and if he has a lot of alcohol when he goes out, it will be much more convenient to do anything." ”
"Ah Yi, how about you try it and see how it tastes?" said the old patriarch Mu.
Ning Yi didn't want to drink it, but looking at the situation in front of him, he couldn't push it off.
He raised his wine glass 🍸 and took a sip: "Well, the junior will do it first, the first sip has a long aftertaste, the second sip is rich in aroma, the third sip is long and sweet, the fifth sip is mellow, and the sixth sip is elegant and delicate...... Good wine, good wine, grandpa. ”
"Ah Yi, where did you learn it, how did you say that?" Mu Yang was still a little surprised after hearing this.
"That's not what I usually like to read more books, these are all learned from books, but grandpa's spirit wine is indeed delicious, I don't believe you drink it now. Ning Yi said.
"I'm really going to have to drink and see, see how much truth you kid says. Mu Yang didn't believe what Ning Yi said.
Ning Yi is now thinking in his heart, how can there be a person like you who has a father who doesn't understand his son, and if you want to blame it, you don't usually come to Wutong Garden.
