The abnormality of Bracelet did not attract Zhou Zhong's attention, he was only concerned with discussing with Steward Xu and Duo'er what to eat to celebrate tonight?Zhou Zhong proposed to buy some vegetables from restaurants outside, and Duo'er raised her hands in favor after hearing this, but Aunt Wang and Butler Xu felt that the cooking outside was not clean, and it was too expensive, so they might as well buy some ingredients to cook by themselves.

At first, the two sides could not stop arguing, but in the end Zhou Zhong found that Biao'er had been in a daze, so he asked her to express her opinion. After Biao'er figured out the reason for the dispute between the two parties, she was a little dumbfounded, but in the end she also stood on the side of her mother and Steward Xu After all, in her opinion, the money was earned by her brother and Butler Xu with great difficulty, and it must not be wasted.

Three to two, which disappointed Zhou Zhong and Duo'er. Steward Xu took the money and happily went shopping, while Aunt Wang and Biao'er went to Aunt Zhao's yard next door to tidy up the newly remodeled kitchen. After all, it will be used tonight, leaving Zhou Zhong to play with Duo'er.

Duo'er is four years old this year, with big eyes and a small nose and mouth, she looks like a very cute white porcelain doll.And Duo'er is very well-behaved and sensible, although she likes to be clingy, she is not annoying. Now she is sitting on the small stool by herself, holding the little white dog she got from Zhou Zhong in one hand, and the bitten dog she bit in the other. Mung bean cake, said softly: "Puppy dog, eat quickly, when you grow up, you will marry my brother with me!"

"Pfft~" Zhou Zhong, who was taking a tea break, spewed out a mouthful of tea, and coughed violently at the same time. He thought Duo'er would forget it after saying it last time, but she still remembered to marry the little white dog. Give yourself a thing.

Hearing Zhou Zhong's cough, Duo'er immediately jumped up and ran to Zhou Zhong's side, patting him on the back and asking, "Brother, why are you so careless, you will choke on drinking water?"

When Zhou Zhong finally stopped coughing, he hurriedly pulled Duo'er over and said, "Duo'er, my brother told you that little white dog can't marry me!"

"Why?" Xiao Duo'er tilted her head and asked innocently.

"This..." Zhou Zhong was at a loss for words, and he thought for a moment before explaining, "Because I am a human being, but the little white dog is a dog. Humans can only marry humans, and dogs can only marry dogs. You understand this Yet?"

"Oh~" The little girl nodded obediently, then raised her head and asked, "Brother, is that Duoer a human too?"

"Of course!"

"Where's my sister?"

"Too!"

"Then my sister and I will marry brother, okay?" Zhou Zhong broke down.

It took Zhou Zhong an hour and a half to finally let Duo'er understand that brothers and sisters cannot get married, but after knowing this, Duo'er was a little depressed, sitting there with her mouth pouting and not talking, even pregnant. The little white dog in the house ignored it.

Seeing that Duo'er was angry, Zhou Zhong slapped his head and scolded himself for being an idiot. He explained to a four-year-old what she was doing, and when she grew up, she would naturally understand that she spent so much money now. Strength, but also made Duo'er angry, typical thankless effort!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong hurriedly changed the subject, leaned close to Duo'er, first teased the little white dog, and then said: "Duo'er, you have raised this little white dog for several days, did you give it to me?" Does it have a name?"

Sure enough, children's attention is the easiest to be diverted. After hearing Zhou Zhong's question, Duo'er immediately showed a cute smile and said, "Yes, yes, I want to name the puppy Xiaobai. But my sister disagreed and insisted on calling the puppy Snowball, which I thought was unpleasant, so I quarreled with my sister, and in the end neither of us was convinced, so we had to call him Puppy again.”

Hearing the quarrel between the two younger sisters over naming the dog, Zhou Zhong also found it very interesting. He couldn't help laughing a few times, and then he patted the little white dog's head, and the frightened little white dog let out a "huh, ji, huh!" Ji~" cry, he kept drilling into Duo'er's arms.Although it can't understand human words, it can distinguish danger. From the moment it saw Zhou Zhong, the little white dog felt that the other party had no good intentions, so it almost avoided Zhou Zhong these days.

"Duo'er, do you think this is good, brother can help you name the puppy?" Zhou Zhong said with a smile.Anyway, idleness is idleness, and teasing little girls is also a very interesting thing.

"Okay, brother, come up with a nice and easy-to-remember name, like Xiaobai!" Duo'er was very excited after hearing this.

Zhou Zhong thought about it for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, how about we call the puppy Wangcai?"

Hearing the name Wangcai, Duo'er pouted and said: "It doesn't sound good. There used to be a servant named Wangcai in the family. He was very black. How can there be a beautiful puppy?"

"Damn~, someone really dares to call a dog by its name?" Zhou Zhong muttered after hearing this. There were dozens of servants in the mansion before, but he really didn't notice that there was a man named Wangcai.

"Okay, Wangcai is too dark, so let's change it, what about the name Fugui?" Zhou Zhong deliberately teased her again.

"No, Fugui is Wangcai's younger brother, even darker than Wangcai." The little girl pouted and said, her face began to look a little unhappy. Both names were former servants of the family, which made Duo'er feel that The elder brother is perfunctory himself.

Seeing that Duo'er became a little unhappy, Zhou Zhong was sweating coldly on his forehead. At the same time, he had great admiration for the father of Wangcai and Fugui in his heart. How could ordinary people be able to name his two sons such top-notch names? Made it?

People are quick-witted, just when the unhappiness on Duo'er's face gradually accumulates and is about to turn into sadness or even crying, Zhou Zhong suddenly has a flash of inspiration, thinks of a wonderful way, and immediately puts on a flattering smile He said: "Haha, my brother was teasing Duo'er just now, our little Duo'er wanted to name the dog Xiaobai, but your sister wanted to name the dog Xueqiu, so why not combine the two names together?" Get up, how about calling the dog Little White Snowball, or White Ball for short?"

"Baiqiu?" Duo'er's eyes lit up when she heard the name, and she also showed a joyful expression on her face. She clapped her hands and jumped up and cheered, "Baiqiu~Baiqiu~, this name sounds nice. From now on, the dog's name will be White ball!"

After finally getting through the trick, Zhou Zhong finally wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, thinking that although children’s minds are simple, they change too fast, and if they are not careful, they may make them cry. not easy.

My little white dog had a name, and Duo'er jumped up and down happily. Bai Qiu felt the owner's mood, and also barked twice happily, and kept walking around Duo'er, but it still had a little affection for Zhou Zhong. Psychological shadow, as soon as Zhou Zhong gets close to it, he will immediately jump into Duo'er's arms. No matter how Zhou Zhong lures him, the white ball will not let him hold it. I like white balls, so I must stew it into a pot of fragrant meat.

Soon Steward Xu came back from buying vegetables. Apart from a few vegetables brought from the south, there was also a carp, a few catties of high-quality pork belly, and some seasonings that Zhou Zhong asked him to buy.Vegetables and fish are all bought in the vegetable market. This is the time to close the stalls. The vendors usually lower the prices, so the money spent on these things is not much.

The pork belly was bought from Wu Shan, and according to the old rules, Wu Shan gave a lot more. In addition, in order to thank Zhou Zhong and the others for letting him use the kitchen in the front yard, Wu Shan also gave him two sections of large intestine and half a pot of pig Blood, although this thing is not worth much money, but it is also a heart of others.

Zhou Zhong was very happy today, so he also cooked three dishes, including his best braised pork and fish head tofu soup. Eating bracelets from river fish, Aunt Wang believed in Buddhism and did not eat meat, and Zhou Zhong specially fried a serving of sweet and sour cabbage.Originally, he wanted to make stir-fried pig intestines, but Zhuaner couldn't stand the smell, so he had to give up.

Everyone ate this meal very happily, especially when Butler Xu talked about the grand occasion of his own storytelling today, it was even more blissful, and he was even happier than being the number one in the exam.

After everyone had eaten, Aunt Wang and Zhuo'er took Duo'er back to the room to play, and Zhou Zhong went to the kitchen to cook two dishes, the main ingredients were pig intestines, and then brought the finished dishes to himself Butler Xu was already waiting for him in the courtyard, and at the same time he was holding a jug of wine in his hand.

Zhou Zhong asked Steward Xu to buy the wine secretly. After all, I am so happy today, it would be okay if there is no wine, but Aunt Wang and Zhuan'er don't like people to drink, so the two of them agreed to have a meal after dinner.

The two sat opposite each other at the low table in the room. Zhou Zhong poured a glass of wine for Butler Xu himself and said, "Uncle Xu, Journey to the West can open up the situation today. It's really hard work for you. Come, let me toast you!"

"Master, what are you talking about? These are what old slaves should do!" Steward Xu was a little flattered, stood up with the wine and touched Zhou Zhong, and then dared to sit down and drink the wine.This is Zhou Zhong's first time drinking wine from the Ming Dynasty, and it turns out that it is similar to that of later generations. The only difference is that this wine can be drunk safely, and it must be brewed from grain.

After a few glasses of wine, Steward Xu gradually let go. While chatting with Zhou Zhong about storytelling in the future, he began to compete with Zhou Zhong for food, and Zhou Zhong also began to express some of his thoughts. There are only two men in the family, so there are some things that need to be discussed.

The drink lasted until midnight, and in the end Steward Xu got drunk and was taken to the front yard by Zhou Zhong to rest. He didn't get up until noon the next day. The butler went over, because a large number of guests had already gathered in their teahouse, and almost all of them were directed at Butler Xu. If he didn't show up again, their Fengyou teahouse might really be demolished by these people.
