After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Chapter 223
"What do you plan to exchange for it, Mr. Sun? Just use the fish you caught. Let's make a spicy grilled fish."

Xu Mengxiao did not rush to clarify her purpose, but took her time as if she really just wanted to eat.

Mr. Sun originally wanted to say that he didn't have any money with him, but could he give her the money on credit and send it to Taoyuan Township later?

Unexpectedly, she came up with the idea of ​​exchanging things for things, "That's great!"

"I've caught a lot of fish in the past few days." Then he showed off and brought his heavy fish basket. The plump fish were jumping around in it, which was very attractive.

"I've given all these fish to you. You can grill two more fish for me."

Xu Mengxiao agreed and immersed herself in handling the ingredients. At this time, her pork kidneys were also roasted.

Led by Xu Mengxiao, Xu Zihan also relaxed, "Master Sun, your pork kidneys and phoenix tail meat are ready."

Mr. Sun immediately took it excitedly, first sniffed the unique fragrance, and then took a sip. His lazy old eyes suddenly lit up.

"Is there any more? Bake me some more, hurry up! I didn't know I could eat it like this...it's delicious, it's so delicious!" While saying this, he didn't forget to pick up a skewer in his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, he A small amount of barbecue was wiped out by him.

Mr. Wang was tied up and had no respectful gestures. He could only cook the barbecue with all his strength, but even so, he could not compare with the speed of Mr. Sun.

Xu Mengxiao was funny. This guy was really a foodie. They didn't find out such an important point. Also, if he didn't disguise it well, how could he eat so wantonly and regardless of his image.

Xu Zihan was a little disillusioned. When he saw Master Sun last time, he only thought that he was a serious and self-controlled man of noble character.

But who is this down-to-earth but uninhibited old man now?
When he was almost done eating, Mr. Sun burped with satisfaction, but he still stared longingly at the spicy grilled fish that Xu Mengxiao was cooking.

Add plenty of green onions, ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, steamed fish with black bean sauce, Pixian watercress, and some bean sprouts, green and red peppers, potatoes and fungus as side dishes. Not to mention Mr. Sun, Mr. Wang and Mr. Xu Zihan both had round bellies. , I still feel so fragrant.

Xu Mengxiao grilled three fishes, "This one is for you, this one is for our family to eat, and there is another one for you to take home and eat. Just heat it up."

Mr. Sun was very moved. Originally he thought he was full and might not be able to eat much. He was very sorry to miss out on such delicious food.

I didn’t expect her to be so thoughtful!
"After all, you gave us so much fish. It's enough for us to stew in soup or pickle." Xu Mengxiao smiled carelessly, which made Mr. Sun, who had been tense for several days, completely relax and enjoy this very much. of leisure and ease.

The group of people ate, drank, talked and laughed, and had a great time. It wasn't until the afternoon when Mr. Sun had enjoyed himself playing barbecue that he seemed to mention it casually.

"This kid..."

Xu Zihan, who had originally forgotten about Master Sun, felt tight in his heart and almost saluted again.

Mr. Sun finally remembered him, "You are the boy who came to visit me a few days ago, your surname is Xu Lai."

It was precisely because of his surname Xu that he had a good impression of Taoyuan Township and Xu Mengxiao, who recommended delicious food to him, so he suddenly wanted to meet him.

At this moment, he felt very surprised, "You are really a family!"

"This is my biological brother, Xu Zihan." Xu Mengxiao introduced, "I just started studying in the second half of this year. For some reasons, I made a bet with someone. If I don't get a good rank in the county exam next year, I will be... Quit taking part in the imperial examination."

"Nonsense!" Mr. Sun was a little unhappy with such a willful and daring act. He had an impression of Xu Zihan, not only because his surname was Xu, but also because he did have a special talent. If he had been young, he would have happily accepted him immediately. Come down.

Xu Zihan hurriedly handed over his hand and explained the reason in a concise and concise manner, "...so I need the best master. I can study with him in the remaining four months, and even in the future, to realize my ambitions."

And his ambitions were made unabashedly. They were not about feelings for family and country, nor about making achievements, but simply wanting to protect his family and create a more stable and comfortable environment for them.Xu Mengxiao and Wang both felt their eyes well up.

But Mr. Sun became serious, "So when you come out, even when you were in Yipinju and Taoyuan Township..."

"Mr. Sun, you misunderstood. Your disguise was very successful. Not only did I not see your identity at that time, but I also didn't know the name of Mr. Sun Hongfeng. Otherwise, I might not have been so foolish as to take my family to barbecue by the lake. It’s a picnic.”

"I did this because I wanted to see you in person. I know that you will decide on the candidate soon, and it is very likely that we will not have any part in it at all, so we want to seize this last opportunity. As for your choice, we fully respect it. !”

Xu Mengxiao didn't even use honorifics, as if he wasn't as eager to please him as others, which made Mr. Sun a little undecided.

There is also some inexplicable concern.

These people are obviously eager to beg themselves to become disciples, but none of them seem to be in a hurry?

In addition, after eating so many good things from them, and even with this girl's craftsmanship, there might be more good things in the future, Sun Lao refused, choking again and again.

Xu Mengxiao saw his hesitation and expressed her sincere thoughts, "I hope Mr. Sun will do it for the sake of my brother, and not because of the food I made, even if If you don't accept him as a student, if you want to eat it in the future, you can come to me at any time."

"Yeah." Eat, eat, and accept students. He won't make decisions just for some delicious food.

Mr. Sun rubbed his neck, as if he had a bottom line.

"Then let me think about it. If I meet someone better than him, I can only say sorry in advance. If not, I will think about it again." While saying this, he couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him.

Born into a peasant family and only studying in the second half of the year, it is rare to be able to develop this kind of tolerance and self-cultivation.

But with a sister like the Sandong family in Taoyuan Township, how bad would he be?

In the end, Mr. Sun left holding the grilled fish that Xu Mengxiao had packed for him. Wang looked at it for a long time without realizing it, "So, is there any chance?"

"The opportunity has been won, and what needs to be done has been done. In the end, it depends on fate." Xu Mengxiao sighed, and even wanted to go to the temple to burn incense and ask for the Buddha's blessing.

On the contrary, Xu Zihan didn't care so much, "If I'm not selected, it means I still have a lot of room for improvement. It's not good to force it."

Wang nodded proudly, "Yes, go back. I still have a bunch of things to buy. Zihan, it's time for you to calm down and continue reading."

The family has been working hard for so long, and it seems like they have done nothing, but only Master Sun knows that they give him a very different feeling, which makes him feel that there may be some surprises if he accepts this student.

At this moment, an official sedan stopped not far from him and stopped Master Sun, who was holding a basin of grilled fish.

"Finally found you!" the visitor respectfully invited.

Master Sun's face suddenly fell. They were really working tirelessly. Even though they had developed such a moral character, they were still discovered.

"So many people are waiting, it's time to give an explanation!" He seemed to have let go of a mental burden. Now that he had made a decision, he faced it calmly.

The visitor's expression brightened, "So Master Sun, are you planning to...?"
