My Favorite Manly Husband
Chapter 43: Banquet (two)
In the study, Li Zhiyuan looked at the two letters on the table with complex expressions. As before, one of these two letters was addressed to him and the other was addressed to Su Qingze. The difference is that this time I brought a gift with Xin—a pair of well-made long life locks.
The letter to him made it clear that this was a birthday present for his son. In addition, it is mentioned that the imperial court nowadays is just at the time of employing people, so that he should pay attention to those who have real talents and learning, regardless of industry, especially those who are helpful to the people. In particular, he was told to pay attention to the situation of fish, rice and duck co-raising, and told him to report the results after the results.
Su Qingze told the other party about raising fish, rice and duck together when he wrote back. He didn't dare to mention it because he hadn't seen the results.
Su Qingze may just use it as a funny thing, but I didn't expect that person to be so caring...
At the end of the letter, he told him that for Su Qingze's desire to lose weight, as long as he doesn't hurt his body, let him go, don't hold him, let him do what he likes.
Li Zhiyuan was a little afraid. He was afraid that Su Qingze would be disgusted if he continued to get fat, so he strongly agreed that Su Qingze would go to Shenjiacun to seek weight loss. But he didn't expect the attitude of that person to be like this. It seems that Su Qingze is thin or fat, as long as he is happy, he has no objection!
"Hey..." Li Zhiyuan sighed, worried. Su Qingze doesn't know whether this kind of petting is joy or worry.
"My lord, Shen Xiucai is here." The butler knocked gently on the door.
Li Zhiyuan sorted his thoughts and said, "Come in."
"Students have seen Master County Honor." Shen Yanbei complimented with both hands and bowed in a respectful manner.
Li Zhiyuan was very satisfied with his humility and asked, "Is Qingze back?"
"Master Su and my husband have gone to see your lady."
Li Zhiyuan nodded and let Shen Yanbei sit down and talk. Shen Yanbei first thanked Li Zhiyuan for the book and the Four Treasures of the study he gave on the day of the crown gift, and then he opened the door: "The handwriting of the adults has benefited the students a lot, but the students are dull and there are many unknowns. I also ask the adults for advice!"
Li Zhiyuan was about to ask him how he felt after reading the book, and now Shen Yanbei asked directly, saying, "You said."
Shen Yanbei was not polite, and immediately threw the problem out. The two people have different views on certain concepts, and the discussion about the current policy was a bit intense for a while.
Shen Yanbei relied on the broad vision of later generations, while Li Zhiyuan focused on the national conditions of his own country. Contradictions can be easily resolved under certain circumstances. After Shen Yanbei became clear, he could not help but sigh that he still reads few books. Time and space are so little understood that they want to diverge.
Li Zhiyuan looked at the contemplative young man facing him, but he was secretly surprised. A person's origin greatly limits a person's horizons, but Shen Yanbei is different. This young man sees problems very long-term, and is able to grasp the key to the problem, and can even draw inferences about it. This learning ability is quite strong!
No wonder the one who let himself pay attention, the other party is indeed a man of creation!
On the other side of the side room connected to the main bedroom of the mansion, Li Lin, the little birthday star, dressed in a happy red robe, was sitting at the table holding a piece of golden silk candied jujube cake. This jujube cake is soft, slightly sweet, and has a slight milky fragrance. Xiaoshouxing enjoyed it very much.
Su Wanqing watched her son happily ate a piece, and then nodded: "Yes, this is indeed different from Tongfu Restaurant." Today, they hosted a banquet on his son's birthday to welcome guests from all over the world. They specially invited Tongfu Restaurant. 'S chef came over to take care of it. Early in the morning, Chef Shen made fragrant silk porridge and delicate and easy-to-digest pastries for delivery.
His son, who has never liked porridge very much, even finished a bowl of shrimp porridge and asked for a snack. Su Wanqing was very happy.
"sister!"
The boy's hearty voice sounded, and Su Wanqing smiled and narrowed her eyes at Su Qingze as soon as she raised her head.
"Can you come back?" Su Wanqing stood up to meet her, Xingmu looked at the young man with a smile. Not seen for a while, the boy has lost weight again! This time the weight is more obvious! The face that used to be as white and tender as his son was thinner, and the outline of the facial features became clearer. Moreover, the young man seems to have grown taller. He looked round and round before, but now he gradually looks like a green pine. And the teenager looks even thinner under the background of a tall and strong man...
No, not a man!
Su Wanqing stared at the pale pregnant mole between her eyebrows.
"Uncle!" Xiaoshouxing saw Su Qingze, his eyes lit up, struggling to get out of his seat. Lan Ling, who was waiting on the side, hugged him down.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Xiaoshouxing took the jujube cake and rushed over: "Eat cakes!"
"Hey! Good!" Su Qingze hugged his nephew, not being polite, and really took a bite of the cake with his hand. Xiaoshouxing giggled and stuffed the remaining jujube cake into his mouth.
Lan Ling was shocked: "Oh, master, eat slowly!" He brought the milk and gave the little birthday star a mouthful.
"Jing Xiancao!" Su Wanqing glared at her son and younger brother, and looked at Gu Changfeng softly. "This must be the husband of Shen Xiucai's family?" The facial features in front of him are sharp like knives, and the eyes are pure. They don't have the slenderness of ordinary twins at all, but have the toughness and masculineness of a clambering man.
Such a look and a figure like this are not flattering at all, but the other person's expression is calm and doesn't seem to care.
Su Wanqing couldn't help but appreciate her curiosity. With multiple skins in the world, it is not easy to live calmly without fear of others' eyes.
"I have seen Madam." Gu Changfeng arched his hands. The woman's eyebrows are very similar to Su Qingze, but Su Qingze's are more youthful and heroic. He could almost imagine Su Qingze completely slimming down.
Su Wanqing smiled cordially: "Please sit down! Qingze has bothered you all this time."
Gu Changfeng smiled embarrassedly: "It's okay." The woman has a calm and close manner, and her gestures are all gentle, which can easily make people feel good.
"Don't speak for him, I don't know if his temperament went to the tree in the wild?" Su Wanqing smiled and shook her head, letting Hongrui serve tea.
Gu Changfeng's eyes were serious: "He's very good like this, he's too thin to lose weight." Su Qingze is young and has a valuable status. No matter what he does, the villagers are very tolerant and often call him for fun things. Those who run and jump are getting thinner every day.
Su Wanqing was startled, then laughed.
Gu Changfeng frowned lightly and said with a serious face: "My husband said, keep walking and moving, he will lose weight faster."
"No, no, I don't mean anything else," Su Wanqing sighed with a smile, "I just didn't think that one day his wild nature would be good too!"
"Sister!" Su Qingze yelled dissatisfiedly with his little nephew, "Where am I?"
"Yes, you are not wild." Su Wanqing took her son over and wiped his mouth with the cloth towel that Lan Ling handed over. "You just used all the energy that you were forced to be trapped at home when you were young, and you didn't use it everywhere. Up!"
"Madam." The little maid came in to announce, "Every squire and ladies are waiting in the flower hall."
Su Wanqing looked at the hourglass and said to Gu Chang, "It's not good to keep the distinguished guests waiting for a long time, why don't we just pass now?"
Gu Changfeng stood up, saying that the guests are free. Su Wanqing held her son, surrounded by her maidservant, and took Gu Changfeng and Su Qingze to the Flower Hall.
The female relatives were arranged to have a banquet in the Flower Hall, while the men gathered in the lobby of the Second Hospital.
Before the county magistrate arrived, the person with the highest status in the hall was actually Li Yi. Although Dongjiang County is not poor, there are not many scholars, and there are not many scholars who pass the exams, not to mention those who are elected. Therefore, the squires present gave Li Yi a lot of face, and with the praise of Li Yi, Li Yi became the focus for a while.
The old scholar sitting next to Li Yi glanced at Li Yi and said with a straight face: "It's full of losses, and Qian benefits."
Someone laughed, "Lao Guo, what do you think you have about Juren? What do you whisper about?"
Old Xiucai is the father of Shen Youcai's eldest daughter-in-law, Guo Xiucai, who is straightforward. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Students should be humble and studious, rather than proud!"
Li Yi's face was a little ugly, and Li Yuanwai said meaningfully: "Old Guo Xiucai, you should say this to your good student."
Hearing this, everyone laughed. It is well known that the old Guo Xiucai married his daughter to a villager in Shenjiacun because he was in love with the other's pragmatic family and the family has a child who is expected to pass the exam. But who knows that the other party's family background is fake, the boy is still arrogant, and his family can't support the wall with mud.
"You!" Old Guo Xiu flushed.
At this moment, Li Zhiyuan walked in with the housekeeper and Shen Yanbei.
Everyone stood up to bow one after another: "I have seen adults!"
Li Zhiyuan smiled and waved his hand: "Today is the birthday of a child. I am grateful for everyone to come to congratulate me. I have prepared a little wine, but please don’t be polite!" Start serving.
Everyone said yes, many people were staring at Shen Yanbei, and those who didn't know were wondering who this young man was and how close he was to the county grandfather.
Li Yi clenched his fists in his sleeve cage, and was too jealous.
This poor talent is really out of luck! Climbed Su Gongzi and also the county grandfather!
At the doubtful glances cast by everyone, Shen Yanbei just smiled politely.
Li Zhiyuan took the first place, took a glass of wine, and said to everyone: "All the heroes of Dongjiang County are here. They have contributed a lot to the prosperity of Dongjiang County. This officer respects you!"
"My lord is serious!" Li Yi said, "This is what we as Dongjiang County people should do!"
Others echoed: "Li Juren is right!" "Yes!"
Shen Yanbei: "..."
This Li Yi is good at flattering!
Li Yi looked at Li Zhiyuan sincerely: "I hope that under the leadership of the adults, I can go further in Dongjiang County! We also respect the adults!"
"Okay!" Li Zhiyuan picked up his glass and was about to drink, who expected a small servant to rush in.
"Master, it's not good—"
"What's the matter?" Li Zhiyuan asked with a frown.
"The young master accidentally ate the fruit of a potted plant in the flower hall. Now he is so uncomfortable that he is crying. Madam wants you to go there!"
Li Zhiyuan was shocked: "Go and ask the doctor!" After finishing speaking, he didn't care about everyone, and ran straight to the flower hall.
Shen Yanbei hurried to keep up. It was a bit rude to suddenly run to the female family, but suddenly he couldn't take care of that much.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you, Li Yi stared at Shen Yanbei's back and gritted his teeth: "Let's go over and take a look!"
In the flower hall, Su Wanqing hugged her son to coax, Xiao Shou Xing cried with tears and nose, and his lips were red and swollen. He looked very pitiful.
Lan Ling knelt on the ground, crying and kowtow: "It's all the servant's fault! It's all the servant's fault for putting this flower here!"
"Sister Lanling, get up first!" Su Qingze also felt sorry for his nephew, but it wasn't Lanling's fault. There are a lot of potted plants in the flower hall, and two of them are covered with pinky red fruits that look extremely happy. These two plants were placed next to the main table, one left and one right. As soon as his sister took a seat, his little nephew picked it up and played, and even played it in his mouth!
"Late Qing!" Li Zhiyuan hurriedly walked, seeing his son's appearance, and frowned. "What's the matter?"
"Zhiyuan!" Seeing Li Zhiyuan, Su Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lin'er has become like this after eating this fruit!"
After understanding the cause of the matter, Li Zhiyuan said with a black face: "Throw these two things to me!" These two pots of flowers were given to the Su family a year ago. It is said that it is the plants of other countries. They brought them from Qinghe because they were prosperous and looked happy. Who knew this thing would harm people!
Shen Yanbei, who had just arrived, watched the little boy rudely picked up the two potted flowers, his pupils shrank, and hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Gu Changfeng hurriedly stopped the young man and took the flower.
Shen Yanbei glanced at Gu Changfeng and walked quickly to Su Wanqing's side. I carefully looked at the little birthday star and asked, "Is there any sugar? Sugar water is also good. Give him a drink!"
Su Wanqing was startled, and was about to ask someone to bring candy, when a strange voice sounded: "Shen Xiucai, you are not a doctor, don't mess around!"
Li Yi, who followed, said to Li Zhiyuan with a serious expression: "For the safety of the young master, it is better to wait for the doctor to see it before making a decision."
Li Zhiyuan hesitated. Li Yi was right, but his son looked really uncomfortable...
"This is hot pepper. It tastes more pungent than green onion, ginger, and garlic. It doesn't matter if you eat it by mistake, just eat something sweet to ease it." Shen Yanbei picked the root pepper and smelled it, and the long-lost spiciness filled his nose. Let him be refreshed!
Li Yi scolded: "Nonsense! If you eat it by mistake, it won't be a big problem, and the little boy doesn't have to cry like this!"
Shen Yanbei's answer was... directly ate a chili!
"Yanbei!" Gu Changfeng frowned, his face full of worry.
The familiar spiciness lingered on the tip of his tongue, and Shen Yanbei almost burst into tears!
Finally found him the pepper!
Boiled fish! Spicy chicken! Spicy hot pot! Mapo tofu!
Everyone's eyes widened when Shen Yanbei ate the chili directly. Su Wanqing hurriedly said, "Bring sugar water!"
Soon the sugar water was brought up, and Su Wanqing carefully fed her son. Xiaoshouxing smashed his mouth, stopped crying, reached out and took the initiative to hold the bowl and drank a bowl of sugar water!
Li Yi's face was gloomy, and his fists under the sleeves were tightly clenched.
After Xiao Shou Xing finished drinking the sugar water, his mouth flattened and he started crying again: "It hurts!"
Su Wanqing and Li Zhiyuan went to see Shen Yanbei, and Shen Yanbei comforted him: "The spiciness will not disappear all at once, but will only fade away. Find something for him to play with, and it will be fine later.
"Shen Xiucai, I advise you not to pretend to understand!" Li Yi sneered.
Ignoring Li Yi's cynicism, Shen Yanbei asked Zhou Yu to take out the box with the present: "This is a little bit of care from the students. Give it to the little boy. I wish the little boy a happy birthday! Happy and healthy!"
What a trick! Gifts were given in full view! If you don't, you have to accept it! Everyone scolded Shen Yanbei for being cunning.
The youth looked natural, and Li Zhiyuan hesitated and opened the box.
Everyone came forward and looked dumbfounded.
There were no valuables in the box, only some colorful wooden blocks and a few books.
"Is this?" Li Zhiyuan picked up the book and flipped through it. The more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became.
Putting down the book, Li Zhiyuan took out the small wooden block: "How do I get this?"
"This is a building block." Shen Yanbei smiled and used building blocks to come out of the house in front of everyone.
The little birthday star stopped crying, staring at the blocks with bright eyes, and eagerly reached out: "Daddy! I want it!"
The stone in Su Wanqing's heart fell to the ground, and she gratefully glanced at Shen Yanbei, letting people take the toy aside for her son to play with.
Xiaoshouxing, accompanied by her handmaid, played around with a high-pitched smile. Li Yi's face was stained with ink, too hateful.
An accident is shocking but not dangerous.
Everyone returned to the banquet. This time, everyone did not compliment Li Yi again, but toasted Shen Yanbei with a smile while inquiring about the gadgets.
Who doesn't have many children these days? Those book county grandfathers didn't let them read at all, but those building blocks are good things! The little boy who didn't watch the county magistrate has forgotten the pain?
Seeing that everyone was so curious about children's toys, Shen Yanbei wanted to sell a toy, but he still remembered the two pots of peppers.
"How do you know that it is chili?" Li Zhiyuan asked curiously.
"My restaurant's private rooms are sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty, so it's just ‘spicy’!" The private rooms are named after the five flavors, and the decoration inside is naturally based on five flavors. Because there is no chili, he uses ginger.
Li Zhiyuan was stunned: "Is this still cooking?" The private room named after Wuwei has corresponding dishes. He has not eaten spicy dishes.
"Yes." Shen Yanbei replied, and he asked for two pots of chili directly without circumstance.
Li Zhiyuan smiled and said, "You take it. New dishes will be launched at that time. I will definitely try it."
This time, Li Zhiyuan did not use ‘own official’, but said me. The subtle gap made Shen Yanbei squinted: "The students will definitely be waiting for you!"
