"Cough..." You Tong choked suddenly, and there was a stinging pain in her throat, as if something was stuck, which made it difficult for her to breathe, and her face immediately turned red.
Rong Yuchi originally thought she was being shy and deliberately coughed to stop him from continuing. But when he looked up and saw her looking so uncomfortable, he was suddenly shocked, "Tongtong, what's wrong?!"
"Ahem..." You Tong was so painful that she couldn't speak. She swallowed hard, trying to swallow something in her throat, but she couldn't. Rong Yuchi quickly put down his chopsticks and patted her back.
Back, "What did you eat and why are you choking like this?!"
You Tong blinked innocently, there was still half a dumpling left in the bowl, she ate the same as everyone else!
"Mom?!" Rong Rong and Rong'er exclaimed together, panic appearing on their two little faces. Mrs. Rong quickly comforted the two children and turned to call the servant, "Quick, get the third young lady a glass of water!
"
The servant hurriedly poured a glass of water. Rong Yuchi took the cup and put it to You Tong's mouth, "Tong Tong, drink some water and squeeze it."
You Tong obediently took a big sip, and the cool ice water slid into her throat, which felt a little comfortable, but something stuck in her throat was still there, making her unable to speak.
Rong Yuchi couldn't help but become anxious, "Let's go to the hospital!"
A large table of people looked at each other, some in favor, some against. At this moment, Rong Chen suddenly thought of something, stood up from his desk, and summoned the old butler. The old butler was still busy in the kitchen, and hurried after being summoned.
He walked out, said "Ouch" and said urgently, "The third young lady must have eaten the gold coins in the dumpling filling!"
In order to match the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, when the servants were making dumplings, they specially put a gold coin in a certain dumpling, which indicated good luck and good fortune. Those who eat it will be blessed, but who would have thought that it would choke someone.
"Gold coins?!" Rong Yuchi frowned and looked anxious.
"Well, yes, but don't worry, Third Young Master, that gold coin is not real gold. It is specially made with several kinds of nuts mixed with sugar shreds. Third Young Master, drink more hot water and you will be fine in a while." The old housekeeper timidly said
Di replied.
Rong Yuchi was extremely angry, but he had no way to vent his anger. Rong Chen quickly ordered the servant to bring another cup of hot water, but it would take three to five minutes to boil it freshly. In the end, he just served a bowl of hot dumpling soup.
You Tong stretched out his hand to pick it up, but Rong Yuchi got there first, "I'll do it, it's hot!"
He brought the hot rice bowl to You Tong's mouth, not forgetting to warn, "Be careful, don't burn your tongue."
Everyone's tense emotions suddenly relaxed. When did Rong Yuchi become so gentle? It's scary!
Because You Tong was choking uncomfortably, he didn't notice anyone else's strangeness. He took a shallow sip first to test the temperature, and found it to be quite moderate. Then he drank it slowly. After swallowing the hot dumpling soup, his throat felt...
Sure enough, the rice was much looser. She drank most of the bowl with great effort, and then felt that the stuck feeling slowly eased.
"How's it going?!" Rong Yuchi asked, holding her back.
You Tong opened his lips and said solemnly, "No...it's okay..."
She looked up at everyone, feeling very embarrassed, and apologized awkwardly, "I'm sorry..."
Rong Yuchi finally relaxed, but he was still worried and asked, "You really don't need to go to the hospital?!"
"No, no, no!" You Tong quickly expressed his position. It's unlucky to go to any hospital during the Chinese New Year!
Rong Yuchi pursed his lips, picked up the chopsticks, put the remaining half of the dumplings in her bowl into his own, and said domineeringly, "You are not allowed to eat any more dumplings!"
As everyone watched, some people couldn't help but laugh out loud. You Tong was also embarrassed. Mrs. Rong scolded her softly, "What nonsense are you talking about? The staple food of this meal is dumplings. If you don't eat dumplings, what will you eat?!"
The old housekeeper interjected from the side, "Third Young Master, please don't worry. I've just wrapped one gold coin in the dumpling tonight, and there won't be another one."
Rong Yuchi breathed a sigh of relief and put several dumplings in You Tong's bowl, but he pierced each one one by one with chopsticks to make sure there was nothing strange in it before allowing her to eat it.
You Tong felt extremely embarrassed, but his considerate behavior made her feel extremely warm, and her astringent throat became less painful.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Rong Yuchi's domineering yet gentle behavior made women envious and men ashamed. Pairs of men and women, no matter old or young, all became intimate, picking food from each other and so on. You Tong was so embarrassed that he almost wanted to fall on the ground.
Digging a hole and burying himself, he mustered up the courage to raise his eyes, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of the cold face of Mr. Rong.
You Tong's heart suddenly thumped. What a shame. She was so rude!
Old Master Rong deliberately looked away and curled his lips, as if he was dissatisfied.
Mrs. Rong raised her lips, secretly leaned into Mr. Rong's ear, and whispered, "You see, Xiaotong was born to be a member of our Rong family, and this is the first time she has come to our house for dinner.
With such good luck, as the saying goes, it doesn't mean that one family does not have access to the same family."
snort!
Rong Guosheng felt a little uncomfortable. How could it be such a coincidence? With so many dumplings and so many people, she was the only one to eat them?!
He was really angry!
The gold coin incident was over, and everyone continued to dine happily. Instead of being as reserved as usual, everyone chatted while eating and discussed where to go tomorrow. After a heated discussion, they finally decided to go to Yangmingshan with the whole family on New Year's Day.
On a day trip, there are beautiful mountains and beautiful scenery, as well as hot springs and villas. Of course, it can also satisfy Mr. Rong’s favorite fishing wish.
You Tong's chewing speed gradually slowed down, thinking about whether to take out the gift she prepared at this time. Just as he was hesitating, Rong'er, who was sitting next to Mrs. Rong, suddenly opened her mouth, tilted her head and faced Rong.
Guosheng said cutely, "Grandpa, my mother has prepared fragrant fishing bait for you. Grandpa will definitely be able to catch a lot of big fish tomorrow!"
Rong Guosheng felt happy, this little girl really knows how to talk, but who cares about the bait, huh!
Rong Rong slowly raised his head, with a faint expression on his handsome little face, and said indifferently, "The most important thing in fishing is technique. For those with poor technique, no matter how good the bait is, it will be in vain."
Rong Guosheng's old face suddenly stiffened, everyone snickered again, Rong Yuchi was secretly happy again, and You Tong was dumbfounded again.
