Chapter 148 Old Man Huang Angry (Part [-])

The next few days seemed to be very peaceful, but Qi Yuhao came back this day, and brought back a hale and hearty old man with a kind face.

The old man was dressed in white brocade, on which were embroidered with two silver long dragons, which were lifelike and very gorgeous.

Qi Yuhao took the old man directly to Nan Yan's Shangshang Restaurant.Nanyan prepared good tea and some handmade desserts for her.

"Well, these dim sum taste very good, much better than my Huang... Huang Mansion's dim sum!"

Seeing that the old man paid such a high price for her dim sum, Nan Yan smiled and thanked her.

"Yan'er, this is..."

"I am Yuhao's uncle!"

Before Qi Yuhao could introduce himself, the old man took the initiative to introduce himself.

"Oh, it's Yu Hao's uncle, so I should call you..." Nan Yan has always been insensitive to such terms.

"Seeing that you and my Yuhao are so close, you also call me uncle." The old man said kindly.

"This...uncle..." Nan Yan blushed suddenly.

"Hahahaha... Good call, good call! I heard from Yu Hao that you are very researched on food, and all the dishes that my emperor has made...have never been heard of in the Huangfu? Is there such a thing?"

"This... this... Yu Hao's description is too exaggerated, I just know a few home-cooked dishes." Nan Yan has not recovered from the shyness just now, and speaks hesitantly.

"Home-cooked food is good. The most lacking thing in my Huangfu is home-cooked food. Tonight, you can make some home-cooked dishes that you are good at. Let me, my uncle, taste it."

"Yes!" Nan Yan answered with her knees bent, and went to the kitchen to make preparations.

That evening, the restaurant on the boat was still closed. Besides Qi Yuhao and Uncle Huang, Yuhao also invited Mr. Yang's family, He Chenyi and his wife, as well as Master Dai and Young Master Dai Rongjun from the Dai family.

Therefore, dinner this day is even more important than usual.Nan Yan was busy in the kitchen with two helpers, with a very focused expression.

At the same time, He Chenyi had already arrived at the restaurant on Shangshang Ship this afternoon, and was secretly talking with Qi Yuhao and Uncle Huang in a private room upstairs...

As night fell, the invited people came to the restaurant on Shangshang Ship one after another.The bank of the restaurant is full of sedan chairs, which is very eye-catching.People passing by could not help sighing.

The two tables were full of seats, but the atmosphere was very strange.

Strange to say, it's not so strange!
The He family and the Dai family are the two largest salt merchant families in Yangzhou, and Mr. Yang is the magistrate of Yangzhou, so it is not unusual to invite these people to have a meal this time.It's just that some people here have done something, so they naturally know it well.

All the dishes on the table had been served, and everyone had already sat down. Qi Yuhao followed Uncle Huang out of the private room and came in front of everyone.

When Uncle Huang stood at the top of the main table, Qi Yuhao and He Chenyi knelt down in front of Uncle Huang in tacit understanding, and said loudly: "Long live my emperor!"

At this moment, everyone was stunned, even Nan Yan who was standing beside her trembled in surprise.

He Chenyi is a big salt merchant in Yangzhou, they have cooperation with the government, so naturally they often come to Beijing.Moreover, He Chenyi had entered the palace with his father to meet the emperor a few years ago, so he recognized the person in front of him at the first sight.

Master Yang got up, and saw the Panlong jade pendant on the emperor's waist at a glance, and hurriedly lowered his sleeves and knelt down, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Master Yang is only a local magistrate, and he has never seen the emperor's heroic appearance.

Even Master Yang knelt down to pay respects, and everyone quickly got up, knelt and shouted "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Pingshen, everyone get up!" At this time, Uncle Huang changed his amiable face in the afternoon and looked a little serious, and then sat down.

It is natural to be cautious when having a banquet with the emperor today.After everyone got up, the burden in their hearts became heavy, for fear that they would say a wrong word or make a wrong action, which would displease the emperor and move their heads and bodies.

Nan Yan sighed lightly, not because she was afraid that the delicious food she cooked was not good, but because she was very shocked to see the emperor suddenly!Thinking of calling him "Uncle Huang" all afternoon, I couldn't help feeling nervous.

There is absolutely no problem with the dishes that are made, because whether it is for the emperor or for the common people to taste, Nan Yan is very attentive in making every dish in her hand, without any slack!
Everyone was sitting on pins and needles, and their behavior became cautious.

"Everyone eat, eat! Don't feel restricted because of my status." The emperor said.

Everyone nodded, but they were still nervous.Using chopsticks to eat delicacies on the table is also delicious food, taste buds are useless.

Qi Yuhao helped the emperor take the first bite of each dish with his serving chopsticks, and the emperor nodded and applauded after tasting it.

"The dishes in the imperial dining room are not so delicious. Although they are rare delicacies, they come in different ways every day, but they are still not as appetizing and heart-warming as the home-cooked delicacies cooked by Miss Nanyan! You." The emperor spoke highly of it.

Nan Yan was so shy, she quickly knelt down, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment!"

"This is a private visit in my incognito service, no need to be too polite, no need to be too polite! You still call me Uncle Huang." The emperor said with a smile.

Now that you know that you are the emperor, how dare you call him indiscriminately?Nan Yan just smiled shyly and didn't say much.

"Your majesty, don't be fooled by this witch! The dishes she cooks have been subjected to witchcraft, and you will be enchanted if you eat them!" Dai Rongjun suddenly said this inappropriately!
"Rong Jun, shut up!" The master of the Dai family who was at the side was startled when he heard his son say this, and hurriedly scolded him in a low voice.

"Father, what I said is the truth!"

Dai Rongjun has really been locked up in the mansion by Mr. Dai for too long, and he listened to the maids who went out to buy vegetables muttering about everything. He only knew the prelude to this matter, but he didn't know the end!
"Presumptuous!" Suddenly Long Yan was furious!
When everyone heard the sound, they were so frightened that they quickly fell to their knees on the ground.

That Mingzhu knelt beside He Chenyi, looked at that silly hated Dai Rongjun, and said contemptuously, "Idiot!"

After all, Dai Rongjun is a person with no brains. He actually stood still and continued to yell, "What I said is really true!"

Master Dai was so frightened that his face turned purple, he quickly grabbed Dai Rongjun's clothes and told him to kneel down quickly!
"You are Dai Rongjun, right?" the emperor asked with a solemn face, pointing in Dai Rongjun's direction.

"Yes, I'm Dai Rongjun." Dai Rongjun finally knew the fear at this moment, and his voice became a little trembling.

"You are that Dai Rongjun who is ignorant, lazy, covets Nan Yan's beauty, and tries everything to get Nan Yan. If you can't get her, you want to kill her! Come on!" , tie him up for me!"
