Chapter 857 Old Mo's Disappointment

Chapter 857 Old Mo's Disappointment

The two chatted for a long time by the lake, until Lao Mo came and asked them to eat.

"Since you want to act, then I will play with you." Mu Tiance said to Xu Shaotang before entering the room: "I just hope that after playing this scene with you, you can play a serious fight with me!"

"Okay! As long as the matter in hand is settled, I will accompany you anytime!" Xu Shaotang nodded.

He was already satisfied that Mu Tiance could agree to play this scene with him. If the matter of God's hand is settled, what's the point of having a happy battle with Mu Tiance?
The main purpose of him asking Mu Tiance to come here is to communicate with Mu Tiance. Now that the goal has been achieved, why is he still dissatisfied?

Entering the house, Lao Mo had already put the food and wine on the table.

For three people, six dishes and one soup are enough.

Just looking at the color of the dishes can whet the appetite, not to mention the tangy aroma.

Lao Mo poured a glass of wine for the two of them, poured another glass for himself, and said with a slight sigh: "I called Mr. Qin just now. Mr. Qin is too busy now, let me treat you well."

Lao Mo was a little disappointed. He originally thought that he would call Qin Zongheng when he heard Xu Shaotang coming, and Qin Zongheng would rush over in person, so that he could see Qin Zongheng whom he hadn't seen for a long time.It's just a pity that Qin Zongheng unexpectedly didn't rush over this time, which made his plan come to nothing.

Xu Shaotang patted Lao Mo on the shoulder and asked, "Since you want to see Mr. Qin so much, why don't you go to him?"

Lao Mo shook his head slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Qin is a very busy person. If he comes over on his own initiative, I will naturally treat him well, but if he doesn't come over, I don't want to bother him either."

"It's really a pity that Qin Zongheng can't come and go." Mu Tiance said while drinking.

Seeing the appearance of these two people, Xu Shaotang smiled helplessly, took a drink from the wine on the table, and then quietly tasted Lao Mo's handicraft that he hadn't tasted for a long time.

As soon as the dish was eaten, Xu Shaotang felt a different taste. Although Lao Mo said this time that he would show all his skills, the taste of the dish seemed not as good as what he had tasted before.

But after thinking about it carefully, they were relieved. They used to eat in Gu Yuan with Qin Zongheng, but this time it was just a few of them.It can't be said that Lao Mo didn't put his heart into making these meals. I'm afraid it's more because Lao Mo hasn't seen Qin Zongheng for a long time, and his heart is already a little confused. The taste of the meals is naturally not as good as before.

"I think this is the best thing I've eaten in years."

Although Xu Shaotang immediately tasted that the taste of the food was not as good as before, Mu Tiance, who tasted Lao Mo's cooking for the first time, was full of praise.

Xu Shaotang smiled and said, "So, you should thank me, right? If I hadn't invited you here, you might not be able to taste such delicious food in your life."

"You really know how to put gold on your face!" Mu Tiance curled his lips, scoffing at Xu Shaotang's words.

Even if credit is to be counted, it is also Lao Mo's credit. Besides, he even got that fish from the lake, and it has nothing to do with Xu Shaotang.

For Mu Tiance's admiration, Lao Mo deserved it. Xu Shaotang could tell that the taste of this food was not as good as before, let alone him who has been immersed in this way for many years?

"Young Master Xu, I'm really sorry, this old man..." Lao Mo looked at Xu Shaotang with some embarrassment. He knew that Xu Shaotang must have tasted the difference between the taste of this meal and the previous one. He originally said that he would treat them well. , I didn't expect to cook such a table of food that was close to failure, which made Lao Mo feel a little embarrassed, and his face became slightly hot.

Xu Shaotang gave Lao Mo a smiling face, and said lightly: "Your heart is disturbed, it's understandable."

"Yeah, I'm upset." Lao Mo nodded slightly, but didn't deny it.

The two of them were talking about something like a riddle here, and while tasting the food with relish, Mu Tiance asked curiously: "What are you talking about? Why are you upset?"

"It's nothing, just a little emotion." Xu Shaotang said casually.

He didn't know what kind of relationship between Lao Mo and Qin Zongheng, but there was no doubt that Lao Mo had already regarded Qin Zongheng as his relatives. He had stayed in Guyuan for more than ten years. , He hardly took half a step out of Gu Garden, every plant and tree here is his friend, and Qin Zongheng, who visits Gu Garden from time to time, naturally becomes his relative.

Xu Shaotang didn't want to say it, and Mu Tiance didn't bother to ask any more. Anyway, he didn't get an answer, so he might as well taste this rare delicacy with peace of mind.

Most of the food on the table went into Mu Tiance's stomach, while Xu Shaotang and Lao Mo mostly watched him eat there.

It might be embarrassing for someone else, but Mu Tiance seemed to be at ease. In his heart, he had already regarded this meal as a reward for acting with Xu Shaotang.

After drinking and eating, Xu Shaotang and Mu Tiance got up to bid farewell to Lao Mo.

"Thank you, old man, for your kind hospitality. Tiance is very grateful." Mu Tiance bid farewell to Lao Mo very politely.

As soon as Mu Tiance's words came out, Xu Shaotang immediately looked sideways at Mu Tiance. This is the master who doesn't even pay attention to Ning Yi and the children of those aristocratic families in the capital. He didn't expect to be so polite to Lao Mo this time, which greatly exceeded Xu Shaotang's expectations, and made him wonder if this was the Mu Tiance he knew.

This is really in response to that sentence, cannibalism is short-mouthed, and soft-handed.

Isn't Mu Tiance's current appearance the best interpretation of this sentence?
He was so polite, which made Lao Mo feel a little uncomfortable. He quickly waved his hands and said, "I am satisfied that you can come and accompany me, an old fellow. Next time you are free, you are welcome to come again."

Mu Tiance nodded lightly and said, "Yes, as long as you don't find it troublesome."

After sending Xu Shaotang and Mu Tiance to the gate of the fence, Lao Mo held Xu Shaotang's hand and said, "Xu Shaotang, come and sit here more in the future."

"Don't worry, I will!" Xu Shaotang patted Lao Mo on the shoulder and said seriously.

He knew that Lao Mo asked him to sit here more, but in fact, he wanted to meet Qin Zongheng who seemed to have forgotten this place through him.

I just don't know, even if he came here to sit every day, would Qin Zongheng come over to have a look?maybe...

Before driving away, Xu Shaotang glanced at Gu Yuan again. Lao Mo was still standing at the door and waving goodbye to them. His old body stood in the wind, with endless loneliness and expectations on his face...
