Meal Sweet Home: Farm Lady

Chapter 47

General Yu Lianxiang brought major general Yu Jun and two entourages to West Lake Village, and before his butt touched the stool, he was furiously preparing to take Yu Ranyue back to Beijing.

Nan Yan rolled her eyes, thinking that General Yu Lianxiang, Gao Weizun, is everywhere, from all corners of the world, what food has he never tasted?

Thinking of this, Nan Yan was overjoyed, and hurried forward and said, "General Yu, you have just arrived in West Lake Village, and the sky is getting darker, and it won't be too late to leave tomorrow morning. I will stay in West Lake Village for a light meal today. Go!" Nan Yan's words were humble.

Yu Lianxiang was really confused by Yu Ranyue's anger just now, and for a moment he forgot that the purpose of coming to West Lake Village was not only to take Yu Ranyue away, but also to hold a banquet to personally thank Dr. Zhao Yi who saved Yu Ranyue's life.

"Yes, yes, I really forgot if you didn't remind me." Yu Lianxiang patted his forehead lightly, then turned to face Qi Yuhao, "Yuhao, do you know where Dr. Zhao lives?"

Qi Yuhao echoed, "Old Uncle Zhao lives in Shugang Village, but it's just after noon, so he must still be selling calligraphy and painting in the city's street market."

"Well, my father is still there." Nan Yan stepped forward to add.

Yu Lianxiang nodded and said: "That would be great. Let's go to the best restaurant in Yangzhou together, order a table of wine, and invite Dr. Zhao to thank him for his wonderful hand and saving the life of my little girl Yue'er."

Yu Lianxiang's eyes swept across Qi Yuhao, Nan Yan and others, meaning to let them go with them.

Nan Yan is in a hurry now, if she goes to a restaurant in the city, her plan will come to naught, how can she experiment with General Yu's rich taste buds?

"Don't." Nan Yan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "My father is a grassroots man, he is used to being frugal on weekdays, and he is not used to going to such a good restaurant to eat, this will only make him feel uncomfortable."

"Oh, that's true." Yu Lianxiang said, "As expected of Dr. Zhao's good daughter, she is so caring. Then how can I thank Dr. Zhao after this? He doesn't accept the money I gave him as a thank you. You don't want any gifts for him, your father is really a good man who saved lives and healed wounded." He said with emotion.

"If you don't mind, just stay here and have dinner here in West Lake Village!" Nan Yan didn't wait for Yu Lianxiang to react, turned to Qi Yuhao, put her hands in front of her and said, "Please go to Chengli Street and my dad will come over Here, there is Mr. Lao Qi."

It's rare for Nanyan to be so polite to Qi Yuhao.

Qi Yuhao thought for a while, looked at General Yu with a slight smile, and said, "General, just listen to Nan Yan's arrangement, and stay here for dinner tonight. The air in the village is fresh, why don't you stay a little longer? "

"But... this..." Yu Lianxiang was a little hesitant. It's not that he dislikes the lack of good food in this rural area, but that he had planned to entertain old man Zhao Yi with a grand banquet earlier on, so it's not appropriate...

"General Yu, my daughter will cook in person tonight. If the dishes my daughter cooks don't suit your taste, I hope you will make it ahead of time." Nan Yan cupped her hands.

Only then did Yu Lianxiang remember that Nan Yan was still selling food in the street market just now, so she must have good craftsmanship.

"But……"

"You don't need to worry too much, general. My father is a very casual person. He can understand your intentions, but I must cook for tonight." Nan Yan's tone could not be refuted, and she was full of confidence in her cooking.

Then Qi Yuhao and Nan Yan sang together, so they simply followed their wishes.Yu Lianxiang nodded, and then sat on the stone bench in the yard.

Nan Yan was very happy, she turned to Aunt Zhang and said, "Aunt Zhang, please go and prepare the table and chairs for dinner, and I ask you to feel wronged about what happened in the kitchen tonight and help me."

Aunt Zhang waved her hands quickly when she heard the words, "Sister Yan, what are you talking about, whether you are wronged or not, I will deal with it right away."

Aunt Zhang finally came out of the nervousness just now.She thought that General Yu Lianxiang would protect the calf, if he really messed with him, he would be killed.But she didn't expect this general to be so upright and fair, and her hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

"Mei'er, go help your mother." Nan Yan instructed Xiangmei again.

"Okay, I'll go right away. I can eat good food cooked by sister Yan again in the evening, so happy!" Right now, Xiangmei is the happiest.

Although Yu Ranyue hasn't received the punishment she deserved, but Yu Ranyue's begging for mercy just now has made Xiangmei very happy.

Speaking of Yu Ranyue, she looked like a defeated little hen at the moment, standing beside Yu Lianxiang with her head lowered, she didn't dare to speak out, and naturally she didn't dare to speak.

Qi Yuhao quickly got on the white horse and headed towards the city of Yangzhou with his whip.For a while, the two families in West Lake Village became busy, and it was very lively.

Nan Yan brewed a pot of high-quality tea for Yu Lianxiang and others. This tea was in Qi Yuhao's room. Nan Yan found it when she was cleaning up his room. She didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

After Yu Lianxiang and the others settled down, Nan Yan was about to get busy preparing for this unusual luxurious banquet at the farmhouse.

When it comes to ingredients, it can be said that everything is available, only unexpected, and there is nothing that cannot be prepared.Although Aunt Zhang's men next door have all gone to sea, there are still some seafood brought back from the sea last time, which are stored in the ice cellar.

For a modern standard banquet, seafood is indispensable. In addition, there are some meat and vegetables, and there are at least fourteen or five dishes for a table.

Although the lineup is large, Nan Yan is not afraid at all.How can you easily miss this rare opportunity to practice your skills.

Almost every night before going to bed, she takes out the jade bracelet on her left hand to learn the production process and attention points of various dishes. It is useless not to do optics, so it must be applied to reality.

Today was a good time for Nan Yan to show off her skills. She rolled up her sleeves and started the busy preparations before dinner.

Aunt Zhang and Xiangmei knew that the guests they received today were unusual, so they specially borrowed two tables of about the same size. Yard, spell it out.The chairs are probably new, and this aunt really has a way to borrow them.

In addition to preparing tables and chairs, Nanyan's table and chopsticks are definitely not enough.Aunt Zhang brought her own large and small bowls and chopsticks in a basket, and of course the ones she found were all in good condition with no gaps.Even the spare new bowls and chopsticks came in handy.

Although Aunt Zhang has cooked for the family for most of her life, she is still willing to help Nan Yan, a little girl.Because Nan Yan's cooking is really delicious, she has a deep understanding.Don't talk about her, just talk about Xiangmei, who followed Nan Yan all day long, clamoring for her to cook something delicious for her.

Nan Yan was in charge of cooking, Aunt Zhang was in charge of cutting and side dishes, and Xiang Mei was in charge of running errands to find ingredients and ingredients.For those ingredients that have never been seen before, after staying with Nanyan for a long time, they will naturally become familiar with them, and Xiangmei is also handy in finding them.

After a while, Qi Yuhao rode a horse and brought old man Zhao Yi back.The first time Zhao Yi saw Yu Lianxiang, he quickly bowed his head and knelt down to salute General Yu.

"No need to be too polite, no need to be too polite, Dr. Zhao please hurry up!" Facing the savior of his little daughter, Yu Lianxiang hurried forward to help him.

The major general who was sitting on the side hurriedly got up and gave up his seat. After several evasions, Zhao Yi finally sat down reluctantly.

"Doctor Zhao, long time no see, how are you?" Yu Lianxiang asked Zhao Yi's face while greeting.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, thank you General for your concern!" Zhao Yi arched his hands with a lot of courtesy.

People with a discerning eye can see from Zhao Yi's deepening wrinkles and countless gray hairs that his spirit is not good, but that something is on his mind and he is getting more and more sad.

Yu Lianxiang naturally knew what Zhao Yi was worried about. He sighed and said, "Old Man Zhao, there is something I have to mention today."

"General, please tell me." Zhao Yi said politely.

Yu Lianxiang turned his head and glared at Yu Ranyue, who was pitiful and lovely at this time, then looked at Zhao Yi and said, "I just found out...that Nan Yan is your daughter..."

"Yes, Yan'er is my youngest daughter. Her mother passed away due to dystocia when giving birth to her. To commemorate her, I gave Yan'er the surname of her deceased mother." Zhao Yi explained.

"Oh, that's it!" Yu Lianxiang stood up, dragged Yu Ranyue to stand in front of Zhao Yi, kicked Yu Ranyue's leg, and made her kneel down in front of Zhao Yi.

"Doctor Zhao, my youngest daughter is unruly and self-willed. I heard that she bullied your daughter Nanyan Baijia in West Lake Village these days, and almost killed her. As a father, I really don't know how to face it. Where to put it."

As he said that, Yu Lianxiang pointed at the top of Yu Ranyue's head and scolded, "Doctor Zhao is your lifesaver, and you not only didn't pay back, but also hurt his relatives. Quickly kowtow to Doctor Zhao and plead guilty!"

Seeing this, Zhao Yi was startled, and quickly got up to help Yu Ranyue.

"General Yu, you can't do it, you can't do it! My daughter must have done something wrong and offended Miss Ranyue, that's why she got angry. It's not your fault..."

Zhao Yi is truly timid and fearful, he clearly knows what happened between Yu Ranyue and Nan Yan these days, but...

"Doctor Zhao, don't defend her! I, Yu Lianxiang, know very well what your little girl is like. All the troubles were indeed caused by my little girl, and she must bow her head and admit her mistakes. Don't worry about my status as a general. Today I will Just an ordinary father educating my children."

Yu Lianxiang scolded again, and said to Yu Ranyue: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and kowtow to your savior, Dr. Zhao, to admit your mistake!"

Yu Ranyue burst into tears again with grievances, and obediently kowtowed to Zhao Yi again and again.
