Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 299 I'm a Balloon

"Mr. Xu, you and the old man's family are really destined."

At the dinner table, everyone Liu held up their wine cups and said, "Thanks to your care for my family, Fu'er, in Changzhou, otherwise... well, let's not talk about this, come, old man, toast you, thank you for your kindness.

"Dong Liu's words are serious."

Xu Er said with an expression on his face: "When we rushed there, your granddaughter had already arrested Duo Duo, so there was no need to take care of her."

Zoff curled his lips.

Although this man was born with good looks, but with such a temper and such a deadly face, he felt itchy when he looked at it, and wanted to hit him twice.

Everyone Liu was a little embarrassed, and slowly retracted the hand holding the wine cup, so they had to kill it by themselves.

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Liu Runiang hurriedly asked the maidservant to serve vegetables, and said with a smile, "The shepherd's purse is just right for this season. Choose the tender tofu, serve it with this shepherd's purse, and season it with chicken broth. It's delicious."

"Thank you ma'am."

Xu Han picked up the bowl and began to eat slowly.

Everyone Liu watched and nodded secretly.

No matter how down-and-out he is, he is still your son, and his etiquette and demeanor are different.

Zuo Fu picked up a quick salted duck and ate it happily.

This Nanjing salted duck is delicious, and the bones have a umami taste.Of course, it would be even better if the dead face on the opposite side could disappear, so that the meal would taste even more delicious.

Xu Er is not a talkative person.When we were in Changzhou, we ate with Zuo Fu, but we rarely talked.Even if you want to ask questions, you will wait until the meal is finished.Or, just stop eating and watch Zoff eat while he continues to ask questions or listen until the conversation is over before eating.

So Zuo Fu didn't wait to see this guy.

Young, very pedantic!
It was very quiet in the flower hall. Everyone Liu and Liu Runiang were people walking in the shopping mall, and they were the best at observing words and expressions.Seeing that Second Master Xu strictly adhered to the principle of "no talking when eating, no talking when sleeping", he also shut his mouth wisely and stopped talking.

Zuo Fu saw that everyone didn't speak or make a sound, he just grabbed the neck of the duck and gnawed it.Liu Runiang couldn't help coughing lightly when she saw her daughter's bold and generous appearance.But Zuo Fu didn't realize it, and he still gnawed happily.

Liu Runiang couldn't stand it anymore, she lightly kicked Zuo Fu, glared at Zuo Fu, and said softly: "Girl, why are you so ugly?"

"That's how I ate in the barracks."

Zuo Fu took it for granted: "In order to boost morale, we have to eat at the same table with the officers and soldiers. There are military regulations in the military camp, and there is only so much time for meals, so naturally we have to eat fast. I will be polite, and those soldiers are not comfortable eating. Ah. Hey, mother, why did you kick me again?"

Liu Runiang stared angrily.

How can such things be said? !What does Mr. Xu think of this?

This Duke of Wei's family is honorable, if he were to marry into his family, His Majesty would not stop him, would he?Although the threshold of Duke Wei's family is relatively high, their family is not bad now, the daughter is still the county head, so it should be no problem to marry a concubine?

Zuo Fu didn't know that her dear old mother was thinking about this, she just felt that her old mother had become so awkward today.In the past, her eating habits were not much better, why did she care about this?Subconsciously glanced at Xu Er, thought for a while and said, "Mother, Mr. Xu is one of our own, so you don't have to be cautious."

"Yun Shu is right."

Xu Er put down the bowl, took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped his mouth, "My wife, Mrs. Liu and Dong's family don't have to be restrained."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Xu is really approachable."

Liu Runiang asked again and again: "Mr. Xu, are you full?"

Xu Han nodded, "Thank you Madam for the hospitality, the food is delicious."

"Oh, father, are you full? I'm full too. Why don't you go to the side hall and have some tea?"

"what?"

Zuo Fu stared, "I'm not full yet."

"Where do you want to eat so much?! You look fat!"

Liu Runiang snatched the bowl from Zuo Fu's hand without saying a word, "We women in Ming Dynasty are slender and beautiful, look at you! How fat are you?!"

What the hell? !
Zuo Fu's eyes were staring like copper bells.

Three hours ago, you said that I was too skinny, why did I become fat after three hours?Am I a balloon?
Xu Han looked at Zuo Fu, the corners of his mouth curled involuntarily, and he said, "Ma'am, don't worry, let Yun Shu eat, she worked very hard in Wujin."

"Hard?"

Liu Runiang was stunned.

The daughter has no experience in being an official, and the ink in her stomach is not as much as that of a scholar, and she is still a daughter.She can imagine that it will be harder to become an official in a local area.

But what does Second Master Xu mean by "very hard work"?
"How hard is it?"

She hurriedly asked.

"No hard work!"

Zuo Fu glared at Xu Er, "Which county magistrate doesn't live like this? I just opened my mouth, and I don't need to do errands."

"It's more tiring to work hard!"

Liu Runiang felt distressed immediately!
"These two sons say you have worked hard, so you must have worked very hard. Be good, it's all mother's fault, you continue to eat, continue to eat! Mother will cook you ginseng and black chicken soup later. Chen Qianhu gave it to you. It’s Taihe Wuji, it’s good!”

Zuo Fu rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Mother, what happened to you today? Why are you so weird?"

"Mother is worried about you!"

Liu Runiang stared, "My daughter's family is delicate and can't stand tiredness, what should I do if I get tired?"

"Ha! When the Tartars besieged Changzhou, I didn't sleep a wink for several days and nights, didn't I come here? It's all right, mother, I'm in good health!"

"What?! Haven't slept for a few days?! Then I have to go to the doctor to see if I have lost my body!"

Looking at Zuo Fu's mother and daughter, Xu Han felt a little envious.

In his world, this scene would never happen.

In the Xu family, being too close to Xiaoniang is a sin in the eyes of the aunt.If he didn't want her to suffer, he could only keep a distance from her, and he could only send gifts to her every year on her birthday.

As the Son of Man, this is the only thing he can do for his mother.

Thinking of this, the warmth in his eyes gradually disappeared, and in a blink of an eye, they became deserted again.

"Okay, you mother and daughter will argue about trivial matters later. Mr. Xu is a distinguished guest, and it is not the way to treat a distinguished guest in the cold."

Everyone Liu interrupted the mother and daughter at the right time, saying: "Prepare some tea, let's digest."

"Yes, father, daughter, this is the arrangement."

Liu Runiang also came back to her senses.

Yup!

There are still distinguished guests!

Why did you fight with the dead girl?
This is so embarrassing!

He hurriedly greeted people to make tea, and invited them to the hall.After sitting down, Zuo Fu said: "Brother Yuncha, what are you talking about today?"

"You child!"

Liu Runiang glared at Zuo Fu, "Mr. Xu came to see you on purpose, can you speak? Manners are all in your stomach?!"

Zuo Fu looked at Liu Runiang for a long time, and suddenly a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.

How did I forget?This Xu Han often goes shopping with his grandfather, he is a regular customer!Plus it's a child of Duke Wei's family, shouldn't he be kinder and more enthusiastic?After all, both grandpa and mother are businessmen!
