A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 309 Tricking people

The ingredients for tonight's meal were prepared by the Li family, and He Yuzhu was in charge of cooking.

The Li family had more seasonings than he had ever searched for, and he had a great time holding a spoon.

It's the same reason that soldiers have enough ammunition when fighting a war, and they feel full of security.

"Brother, I spent a lot of effort on tonight's meal. You have to help me comment on it. Is our food better or Shanghai's food is better?"

He Yuzhu's unreasonable words made Sister Tang secretly twist his waist behind his back.

The flesh on his face twitched in pain, but he endured it.

"Brother Zhuzi, it's unnecessary for you to ask. No matter how good the food outside is, I still have to think about this one at home." Li Xiang pointed to the food on the table and said cheerfully.

They took great pains to prepare a table of dishes, so what's the matter?

When Li Xiang was at the Wang family, he also said to the Wang family's uncle to save face: "The local food cooked by my uncle is much more delicious than the food in the restaurant."

The uncle of the Wang family was so coaxed that his eyes narrowed with laughter.

With fear of Li Xiang, the third uncle and his family finally calmed down for a while.

When He Yuzhu was in charge, he couldn't add a lot of leftovers to the pot.

In the past few years, the Li family had not been getting along well with the third uncle's family, and they had invited him several times during banquets.

Even the most dancing He Yuzhu could drink a glass of wine mixed with water as if nothing was wrong.

But everyone was used to his style, and they kept things under control tacitly.

If he dares to jump, Li Xiang will dare to "smash" him into the soil now.

So this time there were three elders from the courtyard at the table.

There has been nothing wrong with Li Xiang recently.

If he doesn't make trouble, it's not because his temper has improved.

When inviting the first and second uncles, they mentioned it a little, and Li Xiang took advantage of the situation and walked down the steps.

Although it was not mixed as harshly as before, it was at least one-third mixed.

Those who come as guests do not come empty-handed.

This Yan Laoxi actually did this.

The first uncle cut a pound of braised beef, the second uncle brought a plate of frosted peanuts, and the third uncle brought a bottle of wine.

Sure enough, He Yuzhu was fooled by him and was so happy that he couldn't find the north anymore, and he no longer struggled with who was more delicious.

Although the third uncle was not happy about this, he did not dare to talk to Li Xiangqiang about this kind of thing.

Taking advantage of the crowds and bustle and the right time, it is still necessary to have such a small banquet once or twice a year.

Maybe it only solves the small problem of the rim of the bowl hitting the head of the chopsticks, but it can't be taken for granted.

The people at the table drinking all looked uncomfortable.

There was nothing wrong with the others, except when they finished a bottle of Fenjiu prepared by the Li family and then opened the wine brought by the third uncle.

Li Xiang has been away from home for two months. There must be some trivial matters at home that require help from neighbors in the yard.

But the third uncle has been doing this for many years.

There is no one here who has not made any sarcasm.

But the third uncle can pretend to be so stupid, it's up to you, but he lets the wind blow from east to west, and he will do the same thing next time.

The more times it happened, the more people became numb.

Third uncle Pi Hou could bring out such wine, but Li Xiang couldn't treat guests like this.

"Just this time, my classmate gave me a bottle of red wine, and we all came to taste it together."

After receiving Li Xiang's wink, Li Xiaodi simply put down his bowls and chopsticks and went into the room to get some wine.

BJ's side always drinks white wine, so Li Xiang brought out red wine to entertain his guests. The few drinkers at the table were all curious.

Even though he was as steady as a man, he didn't even bother to drink the glass of red wine when he took it.

Instead, he stared at the red liquid in the cup. After a while, his eyes became addicted, and then he slowly took a sip.

I am used to the strength of white wine and the taste and content of red wine. In front of these gentlemen, it is almost like drinking sweet juice. After a while, one bottle reached the bottom.

Li Xiang looked at everyone who was clearly not satisfied.

It's okay. After drinking the red, let's have another bottle of rice wine.

Uncle Wang used the hospitality tactics he used to deal with Sun Guoqing, but he used them exactly as they were before.

As expected, there are still only a few people in this world who can stay awake under the power of mixed alcohol.

The yellow ones haven't bottomed out yet, and the beer ones haven't even had a chance to play.

One by one has fallen early.

Li Xiang looked at the few people who had already laid down and felt regretful.

Originally, he was thinking of giving everyone a few more flavors to try.

At this time, everyone drank less, and there was no concept of getting drunk.

Mother Li thought the alcohol he brought back had high alcohol content.

The dishes on the table were not touched much, and it was only about 20 minutes since the meal.

In the past, these people who could drink from beginning to end fell like this.

She smiled and complained: "It's not like we don't have any alcohol at home. We have to take this high-alcohol drink. Now that we are carrying it back like this, we still think that our family is reluctant to let go of the one who stutters and knocks people out."

"They are all good wines. I thought I would give you guys a taste." Li Xiang said, pretending to be aggrieved.

Sister Tang on the side was feeding her little one with egg custard. She glanced at He Yuzhu who was lying motionless on the table, but she didn't panic at all.

He was still in the mood to joke with them: "Auntie, I saw it really clearly just now. I will testify for your family tomorrow. If anyone dares to spread gossip, I will tear his mouth out first."

Her wisecracks made the others who were awake laugh.

Even the little one in her arms grinned happily due to the related reaction.

The custard I just fed was spit out before I could swallow it.

"Oh, you brat, why are you having so much fun?" Sister Tang screamed as she looked at the dirty bib that had been vomited on.

The bigger his mother's expression, the happier this little one is.

He refused to sit peacefully in Sister Tang's arms, and his movements of his hands and feet became louder and louder, making him almost lose the bowl in his mother's hand.

Mother Li quickly picked up the little one and freed the child's mother.

Mother Li weighed the child in her arms and said with emotion: "This child is really strong. Only your family with good food and drink can raise such a good child."

The elders' praises are sometimes very irrational. Just because they are heavy, they can conclude that they are good children.

"It's because we raised her well. This child is not picky. He eats whatever he is given and grows meat even when he drinks water." Sister Tang, who had her hands free, was slapping away the debris that fell on her body.

"That's true, there are very few people with such a strong mouth like our Xiaoyong. Wean off breastfeeding as soon as possible, and still eat rice cereal and egg custard happily." Mother Li looked at the little one fluttering in her arms and said happily.

She then recalled the scene when the three children at home were weaned.

Any weaning will take a while.

Especially the eldest child. When she had the eldest child, she had not yet recovered and had no milk at all.

After feeding it on and off for twenty days, it was completely gone.

It turns out that this naughty boy's picky habit was probably brought over from his previous life.

He doesn’t drink the rice water, doesn’t touch the soy flour, and spits out the goat milk directly to you.

In the end, I tried my best to find connections, spent a lot of money, and got some milk powder. I was able to get through the first few months. I was able to eat some custard gradually, and I finally got over it.

At that time, the family was still relatively wealthy and could make such a thing.

Mother Li rolled her eyes furtively at her boss.

Li Xiang, who was picking up food for Qiu Fanghua, didn't know that he was once again being invisiblely disliked by his old mother.
