Chapter 146
Although he knew about Mo Qianrui's speechless problem, Tang Yanxiu was a good-natured person, so he patiently told Mo Qianrui again.
In fact, not long after Tang Yanxiu arrived in Luyang County, he got in touch with the Duan family's steward under the name of a merchant of precious ingredients.
Although this family is involved in all businesses, they are still very concerned about the catering industry, which can almost be called a profiteering business.Especially Tang Yanxiu, because of his old relationship with the Duan family, not only left all the high-quality and rare ingredients to the steward, but even the money he collected could almost be regarded as a loss.
Of course, the so-called loss refers to the transaction under normal circumstances.
You must know that most of the precious ingredients have a probability of being damaged.
Let's put it this way, if a piece of food material only sells for [-] yuan in the place of origin, then it may be sold for [-] yuan in Luyang County.The reason is not only the trouble of the journey, but also because a large part of the ingredients that have been transported over thousands of miles are almost useless.
But Tang Yanxiu is different. The fresh-keeping ability of the space warehouse is beyond doubt.
It is even more appropriate than the cryopreservation in the previous life.It's exactly what it looks like when it's put in, and it's still what it looks like when it's taken out.
Except for the small portion of ingredients that Mo Qianrui took away, there was almost no loss.
However, the steward of the Duan family didn't know about this matter. After buying many rare ingredients from Tang Yanxiu, the steward introduced a shopkeeper of the Duan family's restaurant to Tang Yanxiu.
Tang Yanxiu is also capable, thinking of the sauces that Mo Qianrui usually made, maybe they were nothing in the previous life, but now they are considered rare items anyway.He insisted on using those sauces to win the favor of the shopkeeper, and even used a jar of cumin powder to get a chance to meet the master of the Duan family.
The Duan family is a prominent family, and there are at least a thousand people in the direct line and collateral line.
Originally, Tang Yanxiu didn't take that meeting seriously.But he never thought that the so-called master of the Duan family was actually the son of the master of the Duan family!
Of course, the Patriarch of the Duan family didn't have only one son, but it was a big progress for Tang Yanxiu.
After insinuating on the sidelines and secretly inquiring, Tang Yanxiu gradually figured out some things about the direct line of the Duan family.
For example, the Patriarch of the Duan family has only two children born from the concubine, but has a lot of children born from the concubine.
The eldest son of the head of the Duan family was raised as the heir of the next head of the family since he was a child, and he is now in his early fifties. It is said that although he has not yet become the head of the family, he has actually taken over the Duan family. part of the thing.After all, the Patriarch of the Duan family is now 80 years old, and he doesn't have so much energy to manage the affairs of the family.
But Tang Yanxiu was more interested in the rumored youngest daughter of the Duan family who was extremely favored.
As I said earlier, the Patriarch of the Duan family only had two descendants of the descendants, and besides the eldest son, there was also the youngest daughter.
Although the eldest son of the head of the Duan family is already in his early fifties, the youngest daughter is not that old.She was the darling of the Patriarch of the Duan family when he was 51 years old. It is said that the Patriarch of the Duan family celebrated his fiftieth birthday before he found out that his wife was happy.It's a pity that being favored belongs to being favored, but that person's life is not good.Although she was married with a lot of red makeup at the beginning, her beauty was unlucky, and she passed away within a few years.
In fact, when Tang Yanxiu inquired about these things, she was almost sure that her mother was the first daughter of the Patriarch of the Duan family.But he still needs an opportunity.
Fortunately, this opportunity is not difficult to wait.
Last month, the Patriarch of the Duan family celebrated his birthday. Although it was not a complete birthday, but with the reputation of the Duan family and the longevity of the Patriarch, it is normal to wantonly arrange it.
Tang Yanxiu got the opportunity to participate in the birthday banquet of the head of the Duan family through the master of the Duan family, that is, his concubine's younger uncle.
It was also during that birthday banquet that he presented two pressed gold cakes.
Speaking of which, he actually didn't dare to be too sure. After all, it had been many years, and the names of all young ladies were kept secret, so it would not be easy for outsiders to know.Even if the daughter of the Patriarch of the Duan family is no longer alive, it is impossible to find out her name.
With this in mind, Tang Yanxiu didn't rush to meet each other, but used a box of gold cakes to find out the truth.
If his guess is correct, then with these two pressed gold cakes, the Patriarch of the Duan family will definitely meet him in person.
And if he guessed wrong, the weight of the two pressed gold cakes is not light, and the design is also quite festive, so it would be suitable as a birthday gift.
After presenting the birthday gift, Tang Yanxiu attended the birthday banquet with peace of mind.Anyway, no matter whether he can succeed or not, he doesn't have much loss.Even if it was really his guess that was wrong, it would be a big deal to find out later that his mother's natal family must be Duan's family.
However, Tang Yanxiu missed one thing after all his calculations.
his looks.
To be precise, Tang Yanxiu's appearance is not very outstanding, and it has nothing to do with being handsome, unrestrained and suave.However, because he has always kept himself clean and tidy, he can barely praise him for his handsome appearance.
But for some special people, Tang Yanxiu's appearance is extremely shocking.
For example, the Patriarch of the Duan family, and the successor of the next Patriarch.
Poor Tang Yanxiu, who had just entered the table, was taken away without even taking a few bites of food.The person who came forward was not a servant girl, but the next heir to the head of the family.
What happened next simply subverted his original worldview.
The successor of the next patriarch was quite graceful. Although the patriarch of the Duan family looked at Tang Yanxiu very eagerly, he did not make any further outrageous actions.
The bad thing is the old lady of the Duan family.
The old lady was about the same age as the Patriarch of the Duan family. From a distance, she could be regarded as a very dignified old lady, but when Tang Yanxiu approached...
"Xiaorui, I really don't know what to say about my grandmother. Yes, she was very kind to me. It can be seen that my mother was indeed her heart, but she is so warm to me! You didn't see that scene, I was almost suffocated by her!"
Speaking of the old lady of the Duan family, Tang Yanxiu really didn't know what to say other than complaining.
What made him even more speechless was the description of his appearance by the masters of the Duan family.
'You really look like your father who died young, and these eyes are very similar to your mother, they are exactly the same. '
It's not a big deal at first, but everyone can't stand it!
After listening to several people say similar things about ten times in a row, Tang Yanxiu was really helpless.In addition to helplessness, more is sad.For two lifetimes in a row, his parents had passed away when he was still in his infancy.Although there were still photos in his previous life, except for seeing them twice when he was young, after his grandfather passed away and he was sent to his uncle's house, he never saw those photos again.
He has no impression of his parents.
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Mo Qianrui burst out laughing shamelessly.
Seeing Tang Yanxiu's expression that was about to turn into anger from embarrassment, Mo Qianrui apologized repeatedly, but still couldn't help the smile on the corner of his mouth: "I'm really not kidding you, I just remembered the movie I watched before. Do you still remember?" ? The little wizard series of movies, that little savior seems to be just like you, everyone will say a few words when they see him."
Tang Yanxiu rolled his eyes, and he knew that he should not have too much expectations for visual animals.
I can't remember things in reality, but I know everything about movies and TV. Is this really good?
"Yan Xiu, don't be angry. By the way, did you say that cousin Jiqiu is the daughter of your direct uncle?" The so-called direct uncle refers to the next heir of the Duan family.
"No. Jiqiu is my little uncle's daughter, the little uncle who took me to my grandfather's birthday banquet. He is my grandfather's youngest son. Although he is a bastard, he is quite favored. Although he is not too Great ability, but it is quite good to take care of all the large and small restaurants of the Duan family in Luyang County. Anyway, the Duan family is a merchant, so it is not a big deal if you can't go to school."
Mo Qianrui nodded in agreement. In fact, in her opinion, the ancient imperial examinations were just a mess. Can a group of old scholars really govern the country well?
Of course, it's not her turn to care about the country and the people. She is more concerned about Tang Yanxiu's current situation.
"According to what you said, it seems that the people in the Duan family are pretty good. However, I still don't like big families. As many people as there are people, there will be more troubles. If there are one or two top relatives, life will be difficult. gone."
Tang Yanxiu gave her a white look: "How can there be so many bad things? Besides, although the descendants of the Duan family say that the direct line and the collateral line have always been separated. Strictly speaking, the direct line does not have a large population. I Although the grandfather and heirs are said, the daughters have all been married long ago. Except for occasional visits during the holidays, they have no contact with each other on weekdays. Even the concubine, if it weren't for my little uncle's ability, he would have been dismissed. Separated and singled out."
"That's great... Tell me, there's nothing wrong with so many people in the Duan family. Why are there so many top grades around me? Is it really because my physique is more attractive to top grades?"
Excited by Mo Qianrui's statement, Tang Yanxiu held her stomach and laughed for a long time before stopping.
Suddenly, he looked at Mo Qianrui very seriously, and said, "Xiaorui, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense. Believe it or not, there will be a top relative waiting for you after you go out?"
"hiss!"
Taking a deep breath, Mo Qianrui instantly turned pale with fright, but Tang Yanxiu felt sorry and quickly apologized to her.
Even so, when Mo Qianrui left the space, his face was still very ugly.
In fact, she had been very worried. When she opened the courtyard door one morning, she found that her little aunt had returned.
Although Grandma promised her again and again, even if the little aunt dared to come to the door again, she would definitely do it to death.But Mo Qianrui still couldn't help being frightened by herself occasionally.
However, this time...
As soon as she left the space, Mo Qianrui heard someone knocking on her courtyard door. Immediately, she was frightened into a cold sweat.
