The happy life of the landlady

Chapter 209 The first informal meeting with the future parents-in-law
Perhaps it is because at the beginning of the winter vacation, Yu Jiayi and Li Yingxue will accompany Xu Lijuan to travel to the six provinces of L, S, H, Z, G and X. Perhaps it is Xu Lijuan's "professional Ding Dang's tacit attitude during the trial of the "Mission Mission" again confirmed the thoughts that often appeared in her mind during this period. In short, Xu Lijuan's good mood lasted until the evening.

That night, Xu Lijuan had a rare dream.

Therefore, the next morning, when Master Xu, Xu Ankang, and Du Mengqi got up, they were greeted by a room full of delicious food.

Mushroom and Beef Rice Rolls, Barbecued Pork Buns, Milk King Buns, Shrimp Dumplings, Egg Tarts, Shrimp Siu Mai, Glutinous Rice Chicken, Horseshoe Cake, Durian Crisp, Chicken Feet in Bean Sauce, Steamed Pork Ribs, Carrot Cake, Golden Cake, Powdered Fruit, Stir-fried Niuhe, fried dumplings, preserved egg and lean meat porridge, fresh fish fillet porridge...

Although Xu Lijuan used to make dim sum a few times, since the opening of University B, Xu Lijuan has devoted more time and energy to her studies, and only on weekends will she cook a few of Xu's family favorites However, it has been a long time since there are so many kinds of dim sum like today, so that Mr. Xu couldn't help but rubbed his sleepy eyes, looking at the red round rising in the sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room. Today, it is inevitable to have the idea that the sun is coming out of the west for a moment.

Without it, why would Fu Jianbai, who should never have appeared on the breakfast table of Xu's family, sit there naked right now!
Of course, in fact, as early as when Fu Jianbai saw Mr. Xu, Xu Ankang and Du Mengqi, he immediately got up from the sofa, bent slightly, and greeted cordially: "Grandpa Xu, good morning."

"Uncle Xu, good morning."

"Aunt Du, good morning."

Mr. Xu glanced at Fu Jianbai faintly. Not only did the string that had been tense since seeing the uninvited Wen Jiaqing the day before yesterday not relax, but he became more and more vigilant and vigilant. Lost the peace in the past: "Boy of the Fu family, where is your grandpa?"

During this period of time, Mr. Fu, who took Fu Jianbai with him wherever he went, would allow Fu Jianbai to come to Xu's house alone today. No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong with this matter.

This was also the first thought that came to Xu Ankang's mind after seeing Fu Jianbai.Although logically speaking, this is the first official meeting between Xu Ankang and Fu Jianbai, but for some reason, in Xu Ankang's eyes in the past, this person was so excellent that all the second and third generations felt inferior. The man, at this moment, made Xu Ankang feel uncomfortable even when he looked left and right.

And with Xu Ankang's shrewdness, how could he fail to notice the tenderness that flashed in Fu Jianbai's eyes when he looked at the closed kitchen door.

This……

Xu Ankang frowned slightly, and he was uncomfortably pondering.

Only Du Mengqi rolled her eyes, suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and then she looked at Fu Jianbai with burning eyes.

Fu Jianbai seemed unaware of the huge impact his sudden appearance in Xu's house had on everyone, and said respectfully: "A few days ago, grandpa discovered a small shop that makes authentic mutton. When I went out, he was opening Call the owner of the small shop to ask when the fresh and tender lamb will be delivered, and I plan to invite Grandpa Xu to taste it together when he has time."

"So, you mean that he will come over later?" Mr. Xu was full of displeasure, especially when he saw Fu Jianbai's obvious nodding motion and apologetic eyes, he almost couldn't bear it The place of residence was furious.It's all right if there is one person who eats food, the key is that there will be another rice bucket coming later, I can't blame Xu Lijuan for being busy in the kitchen at this time!

Ever since Xu Lijuan showed her talent in cooking in front of everyone in the Xu family, and since Zhang Ma, who used to control the Xu family's kitchen, was fired, Xu Lijuan has truly become the master of the kitchen.From then on, no one dared to enter the kitchen without Xu Lijuan's permission. They were afraid that if they were not careful, they would disturb Xu Lijuan who was cooking hard.That's all, the key is not to frighten Xu Lijuan, so as to scare away Xu Lijuan's culinary talent, which she discovered with great difficulty, then the loss outweighs the gain.

As for Xu Lijuan's practice of eating three meals a day by herself, Mr. Xu, Xu Ankang and Du Mengqi, who have always held Xu Lijuan in their hands and cared for them, raised objections more than once.In their view, Xu Lijuan is the little princess of the Xu family, and she was born to live a leisurely and carefree life pampered by the stars. When they think about it, it is enough to cook occasionally and cook a few small dishes for the family. , There is no need to spend all day studying those recipes in the kitchen.

However, these words of persuasion were all rejected by Xu Lijuan, so after a few months, everyone in the Xu family has become accustomed to Xu Lijuan preparing three meals full of happiness for them.Of course, this doesn't mean that they can tolerate outsiders, especially Fu Jianbo, an outsider who is obviously malicious, who keeps coming to Xu's house to eat.Especially today Xu Lijuan was in a rare mood to cook such a sumptuous meal!

……

Mr. Xu looked away with difficulty, suppressed the desire to take a few deep breaths, and then swallowed wildly, and said: "Boy of the Fu family, could it be that Mr. Fu didn't tell you that the thing he hates most is eating mutton? "He dared to come up to him to deceive people, and he didn't know how to find a better excuse. Is Fu Jianbai really itchy?Or hold him because of old man Fu's face, so he is too embarrassed to be cruel?

"Tsk..." Mr. Fu, who walked slowly all the way to the gate of Xu's house, just happened to hear Mr. Xu's words full of ridicule, disdain and contempt when he opened the door, so he shook his head and sighed: " Old man Xu, it’s in vain that I regarded you as the most reliable brother back then, and I can do anything for you, but, look, how did you repay me? I can’t even remember what I like to eat That's all, you are still blatantly bullying my kid in front of me today, how dare you?!"

Mr. Xu snorted lightly, and looked up at the sky: "I don't know which old man, when I was out with some old friends, used the banner of being good for those kids in my family, and tricked them all into My family abused me for several days, and even threatened them not to sue me!"

"There is such a thing?!" Mr. Fu didn't seem to understand the meaning behind Mr. Xu's words, and his face was full of injustice: "Which old man actually did such a disrespectful thing against his conscience, making him I know, I will definitely let him know 'why the flowers are so red'!"

"..." Xu Ankang, who was lucky enough to be abused by Mr. Fu back then, grew up rapidly in just a few years, and completed the transformation from an ordinary second generation to a cunning second generation like a fox, watching this scene silently. I began to review my own shortcomings.In any case, just because of his thick skin, he could only bow down to Mr. Fu.

"..." Du Mengqi, who was lucky enough to know about this matter, looked at it with a smile, but she didn't dare to intervene in the fight between the two old urchins, for fear that she, a fish, would be hurt if she was careless.

"..." Fu Jianbai, who had already had a deep understanding of his old man's bad taste, quickly exchanged glances with him when he realized that the closed kitchen door had been pulled open.

"It smells so good..." Mr. Fu's nose twitched, his face full of intoxication: "Mr. Xu, what I envy the most is that you have such a sensible and filial granddaughter as Xiaojuan!"

"Hmph, no matter how envious you are, Xiaojuan will never become your granddaughter!" Mr. Xu lifted his chin slightly, his face full of pride, only he knew, in fact, at this moment, something bad suddenly appeared in his heart I always feel that it will not be long before the caring little padded jacket that I have loved for more than ten years will abandon him and go away!
Therefore, at this moment, Mr. Xu's expression also became gloomy, which only made Mr. Fu, who had expected Mr. Xu's reaction for a long time and was about to answer, stunned for a while. Then, he quickly figured out why Mr. Xu Feeling dejected, he swallowed the throat-piercing laughter with the idea that his family would be the big winner.

"Grandpa Fu." Xu Lijuan blinked. Although she didn't understand why the atmosphere in the living room was so heavy and sad, but because the two outsiders, Mr. Fu and Fu Jianbai, were still there, she had no choice but to suppress her thoughts and smile. He said hello to Mr. Fu, and then greeted Mr. Xu, Xu Ankang and Du Mengqi one by one, and then called everyone to the table for dinner.

"Grandpa Fu, try this." Xu Lijuan put a chicken foot into Mr. Fu's bowl with her serving chopsticks, and said, "I steamed it for a while, and the stew became softer, and some oil slicks were removed. , if Grandpa Fu likes it, he can use a few more."

"Okay..." Mr. Fu couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he picked up the phoenix claw and put it in his mouth, the delicious and soft feeling immediately conquered his tongue, he couldn't help but raised his thumb and praised: "Not bad! "

Mr. Xu rolled his eyes, and the chopsticks that were originally stretched towards siu mai turned a corner, and without hesitation, he clamped all the remaining chicken feet in the small bowl into the bowls of himself, Xu Ankang, and Du Mengqi. Of course, Xu Lijuan's bowl Two huge chicken feet were also put in it.

"Grandpa, thank you." Xu Lijuan thanked with a smile, as if she didn't see the fight between the eyes of Mr. Xu and Mr. Fu across the table, she picked up a shrimp dumpling that Mr. Xu liked most, and said: "Grandpa, yesterday I bought very fresh river prawns, I think the prawn dumplings made today will taste very fresh, try it and see if it tastes good."

"Okay." Mr. Xu nodded, picked up the shrimp dumpling and took a bite, a fresh smell came straight to the tip of his nose, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Delicious!"

……

Because Mr. Xu and Mr. Fu have been fighting secretly, it took half an hour to end this time.
