Xu Cinian didn’t stiffen his mouth at this time, and nodded with a smile, “Speaking of people’s encounters, it’s really quite wonderful, I already felt very lucky to meet the old man in the mountains before, I didn’t expect to meet Uncle Zhong again.” He can be counted as the closest person to me besides my grandfather and my mother, and if it were not for the imprisonment, I would not have lost contact with him.”
Qu Cheng sneered, “If you want to say so, if you don’t go to jail and still run into me, is it Nian Nian.”
Hearing the nickname Nian Nian, Xu Cinian’s ears instantly turned red, and he pounced on his ears, You don’t call me with such a disgusting name!”
“Hey! Why can people call, I can’t call, I’m the son-in-law of the east bed who was sealed by my aunt, you don’t let me call your partial name, Nian Nian, Nian Nian…”
The more Qu Cheng called the more happy he was, the whole person laughed uncontrollably, while laughing while squeezing Xu Cinian, “Speaking of this name is really good, the little guy can be renamed ‘paste’ in the future, so that you father and son can make up a ‘slimy’ combination, listen to it is cute, hahaha …”
“They all said that they were the names of the beasts when you were young, but didn’t you have them when you were young?” Maybe it’s not as good as me, what dog egg, Qu Black Bear, Two Kings Eight is the most suitable for you! ”
Xu Cinian stretched out his foot to kick him, Qu Cheng grabbed his ankle and pulled him hard, pulling the person down on the sofa, and then the whole person pressed up, looked down at the tip of his nose and smiled badly, “Actually, when I was a child, I was called a black donkey, do you know why?”
Xu Cinian immediately laughed when he heard it, “I don’t know, and I don’t want to know.”
“How can you not know? You should know the best, you experienced it yourself yesterday. Because…… When I was a child, the bottom was darker than everyone else, donkey whip do you understand? ”
Xu Cinian was stunned for a moment, and then reacted to what this “donkey whip” meant, and immediately his face turned green, “Fuck! You fucking don’t have a face!”
Saying that he went up with one foot, killing the big bird between someone’s legs in a second, someone dodging left and right with a giggle, and taking the opportunity not to forget to eat tofu.
Just when the two people were fooling around, Uncle Zhong suddenly came out of the kitchen, and when he saw this situation, he didn’t even think about directly picking up the broom in the corner of the wall and punching Qu Cheng’s head.
“You bastard stuff! What are you doing!”
Qu Cheng was suddenly beaten, and for a while he was confused, not that he could not fight back, nor that he could not fight back, but he did not understand how he provoked this old man, and came up to him and gave him such a cruel hand.
“Uncle Zhong, Uncle Zhong, don’t do it, there is something to say.”
Xu Cinian quickly stepped forward to stop Uncle Zhong, who was blushing and had a thick neck, but was suddenly broken away by the old man, “Cinian, don’t stop me, you are the easiest to be bullied like this, there are so many hooligans now, you don’t have to be deceived by him!”
How could you be the easiest to be bullied with your hands and feet, you’re not a bitch! ?
Xu Cinian couldn’t help but wanted to speak back, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized a serious problem.
Uncle Zhong has watched him grow up since he was a child, and his mother is loyal.
The secret of his body! ?
Qu Cheng, who stood in the same place and let Uncle Zhong smoke several times, was not so good-tempered at this time, grabbed the broom and said solemnly, “Uncle Zhong, I respect you as an elder and don’t fight back, but I am not innocent either. The master who was beaten for no reason. The matter of me and Cinian is a problem between the two of us. You are only his mother’s friend, don’t you think it is unnecessary to do so much?”
“It’s reasonable for you to bully Cinian in my house!? Can you take care of what happens?”
Uncle Zhong still speaks like a bell even though he is old, and when he thinks that he saw Qu Cheng’s attack on Xu Cinian just now, he is furious. It is the same? I have been protecting him like a little girl since he was a child, why let the stinky hooligans touch him?
“Old man, can you figure out the situation? He took me to see his mother, what can I do to him!?”
Qu Cheng was also on fire. He felt distressed that Xu Cinian was too late. Why did he come here? In the mouth of the old guy, he became a beast in clothes.
Seeing that the two of them were talking more and more, Xu Cinian’s scalp exploded immediately. For fear that Uncle Zhong’s mouth would soon shake the matter out, he rushed over to stop it and winked at the old man, “Uncle Zhong, listen to me, This is really a misunderstanding, he is my friend, we… uh, it’s not what you think, do you understand what I mean? This time he also has been accompanying me back to, so I can only see you now.”
Uncle Zhong, he stopped the broom in his hand, looked between Xu Cinian and Qu Cheng in confusion, and finally asked him in a low voice, “Are you sure he doesn’t know?
“He nodded, afraid of what he would say.
Uncle Zhong snorted, and it was only now that Qu Cheng was more pleasing to the eye.
Xu Cinian struck while the iron was hot, and hurriedly made a soothing gesture to Qu Cheng, then turned his head with a smile and said, “Uncle Zhong, I’m so hungry, what can we do after we finish eating? I miss your cooking.”
He always has a knack for coaxing old people, and with just a few words, Uncle Zhong’s brows were coaxed and he turned around and went into the kitchen to cook.
Turning around to look at Qu Cheng whose arms were blue, he apologized in a low voice, “I’m sorry… the old man is too excited to see me, and he is too protective. Don’t mind.”
Qu Cheng stared at him for a long time without saying a word.
He is not a fool. He is already sure that Xu Cinian is 100% hiding something from him, but he suddenly doesn’t want to ask anymore. Because he knows this peacock’s temper too well, as long as he doesn’t want to say who is persecuting him, it’s useless. If he doesn’t say it, there may be a reason why he can’t say it.
Suppressing all the doubts in his heart, he finally took a breath, opened the corners of his mouth and smiled, “It’s alright, the old man didn’t use much effort to look fierce, just kiss me and it won’t hurt.”
Xu Cinian thought in his heart, he let out a long sigh of relief, and coaxed him to kiss him on the lips, “idiot.” When the meal was about to begin, Xu Cinian was surprised by the delicious dishes on the table.
He has been the eldest young master in the Xu family for more than 20 years, and he has seen all kinds of delicacies, but for the first time, he has seen all the dishes of “Zhao Family Banquet”.
The so-called “Zhao Family Banquet” is the six-course ancestral dishes of his mother’s family. Bamboo shoots simmered old duck, hibiscus pork trotters, pickled silver carp head, three-flavored folded ear root, hot and sour fern root powder and red oil meat.
How rare, you can’t eat it in other restaurants, but use authentic local ingredients with Zhao’s own secret sauce and chili, the taste is much better than other places, this taste is very rare, others can’t imitate it.
He and Qu Cheng had been on the road for a day, and now he was very hungry. After eating for a while, Xu Cinian had the time to stop and speak, “Uncle Zhong, your craftsmanship is still the same as it was in the past, so my grandfather praised it. You are the golden brand of the Xu family.”
“Oh, you can’t compare to the eldest lady, the eldest lady is really good at craftsmanship. I was an apprentice with her, and I have only learned a little bit of fur.”
Uncle Zhong took a sip of wine and said After a sigh of relief, he said with emotion, “If the eldest miss is still alive, where would there be anything to do with the Xu family? It’s a pity… It’s a pity!”
“Uncle Zhong, with your skills, you never thought about opening a restaurant?” When Qu Cheng asked this, Xu Cinian secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Uncle Zhong was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t expect Qu Cheng to take the initiative to talk to him, now that he is not so angry, he shook his head and looked depressed, “When I left the Xu family with the eldest young lady, I didn’t plan to do so. Do this business again. What’s the use of doing it? It also depends on the ability given by the eldest lady. Let me rely on the Zhao family’s secret recipe to make money for myself. I can’t do such an immoral thing.”
Xu Cinian gave Uncle Zhong a piece of pig’s trotter and added a cup of good wine, “Then what are you doing now? If you have no children, you have to find someone to rely on, right?”
“I have old arms and legs, what else can I do? When I was old, I did a little research on things like wild pepper and zheergen, so I helped an old man take care of the farm, and went around the vegetable field a few times every day, and taught those children how to plant and cultivate them, and then I arrived. Go to the cemetery to see the eldest lady in the afternoon, go home to sleep at night, and the life will be just like that.”
After hearing this, Xu Cinian’s eyes lit up, he looked back at Qu Cheng, blinked, It’s like saying – Uncle Zhong is a technical talent!
Qu Cheng couldn’t help laughing, and raised his eyebrows at him, meaning – hurry up and dig over.
Just when the two of them were “frowning” and thinking about how to open their mouths, Uncle Zhong had poured several glasses of wine into his stomach, patted Xu Cinian’s shoulder with red cheeks and said, “Nian Nian, Tell the truth to Uncle Zhong, where have you been in the past seven years? Why didn’t you come and see your mother? I know you are a good boy, not the kind of person who forgets his roots when he has money, but why didn’t you come back, ah?”
“Do you know how uncomfortable Uncle Zhong is holding your mother’s diary and Zhao’s secret recipe in his hand… I’m already getting old, and I’m not sure when I will leave, but I still have the eldest lady’s belongings in my hand and nothing to return to the original owner. By then, the Zhao family banquet will be lost, and it will be buried in my hands. Then how can I be worthy of you and your mother!”
As soon as these words came out, both Xu Cinian and Qu Cheng were stunned.
“Uncle Zhong, why can’t I understand what you’re saying? I was by my mother’s side when she left, and she didn’t say she had anything for me.”
“You have been trained as a successor since you were a child. It’s business management, where did your mother seriously learn the craft of cooking? She wants you to learn it, but she thinks that you will be someone who will do great things in the future, and it will be a waste of time to learn, so I never mentioned it to you.”
“Later, she regretted it when she was dying and wanted to give it to you, but you were very young at that time, and giving it to you would be a bargain for the Xu family. The eldest lady was angry at the Xu family all her life and did not want to die for her own. His son was also used by his husband, so he secretly gave me the secret recipe and diary, and told me to wait until you graduate from college and you can be on your own before giving it to you.
After hearing this, Xu Cinian was immediately stunned, and he didn’t know how to react for a while.
On the contrary, Qu Cheng was calmer than him and asked directly, “You have watched him grow up since you were a child, so you should know exactly how old he was when he graduated from college. Why wait till now?”
When it came to this, Uncle Zhong was even more sad, wiped his tears and said, “I regret it too… I counted the days every day and waited for you to grow up, but I didn’t expect it to be when you were twenty-three years old. That year, I had a sudden heart attack, and I was in the hospital for more than half a year before I was discharged. Later, I went all the way to S City to find you, but no one knew where you went, and the door of Xu’s house was even closed. When I heard that I was looking for you, they didn’t even let me in, so I was blasted out.”
“At that time, I thought that you would always come to see the eldest lady, so I went to the cemetery to wait for you every day, and the wait was seven years… I was really afraid that I would die before you came back.”
He said that he couldn’t bear it himself, his eyes were red, and he was crying while drinking. He was obviously very sad.
Xu Cinian really couldn’t bear it this time, his eyes were red, and a tear fell on the back of his hand. Crying, no matter how hard it is, he have survived. Now he think of the nightmare seven years ago, but he almost hate blood.
""
Xu Xinnian not only ruined him alone, but also implicated so many people for no reason.
He, grandpa, Uncle Zhong… everything is linked together like the butterfly effect. One person does evil, and everyone has to follow the bad luck. It’s really Xu Xinnian’s style of doing things.
He took a deep breath, thought for a while, and said, “Uncle Zhong, would you like to come with me? I can’t explain things to you for the past seven years, but I really don’t really want to leave you and my mother alone. You also said that you don’t want to let your mother’s craftsmanship be lost, so do you want to do something big with me, and let the Xu family know that sooner or later what you take will be returned.”
Uncle Zhong was stunned for a moment, “Aren’t you the Xu family? What nonsense are you talking about, don’t worry, this old man really hates Xu Jianguo, but it has nothing to do with you.”
Xu Cinian smiled bitterly after hearing this, and Qu Cheng even sarcastically said, “Xu Jianguo Create an illegitimate child to squeeze the Cinian away, this illegitimate child kill the old man Xu and then kill Cinian, is this kind of person still a family member?”
“Nian Nian, is he serious?”
Xu Cinian nodded and said seriously, “I have left Xu’s house now, I have started a farm myself, and I am going to open a small restaurant. If Uncle Zhong is willing, I really hope that you can come with me and bring Xu The home was snatched from the illegitimate child.”
Uncle Zhong was dumbfounded, and after a long period of stunned he stood up suddenly, “Xu Jianguo really kicked you out of the house!? Damn, did he put the eldest lady’s face on his face? Where is he!”
“I fucking hate him for a long time! I used the Zhao family’s recipe and used the Xu family’s brand to make black money, and now he dare to do this to you!? I should have chopped him with a kitchen knife if I knew it earlier. This turtle grandson! Nian Nian, you wait, Uncle Zhong will support you!”
He stood up swayingly, ran into the house on crutches, rummaged through the boxes and found a tightly sealed small box handed it to him and said, “I now return the things of the eldest lady to the original owner, and my old Zhong’s wish has also been fulfilled. There are not many years left in this life. I will give up this old bone! Uncle Zhong will go with you!”
A promise is worth a thousand dollars.
Holding the box, Xu Cinian couldn’t help laughing happily. His heart kept churning with excitement. He couldn’t say a word for a while, so he could only nodded heavily.
This trip not only allowed him to find the relics left by his mother, but also dug up Uncle Zhong, the “golden signboard” of the Xu family back then. He was extremely lucky, and even now he can imagine that “Zhao Jiayan” will return to S City What kind of craze will this cause!
Thinking of it, he turned his head and smiled at Qu Cheng, as if to say that this honeymoon trip was not in vain.
Qu Cheng winked at him, the meaning is simple and direct “since you are so grateful to me, why don’t you pay with your body?”
