At Leng Changxi's birthday party that night, something a little weird happened because of the addition of Guo Wanrou. According to previous years, when the Leng family celebrated their birthdays, there was no distinction between master and servant. The whole family sat around a big table happily.
eat and drink.
But when Guo Wanrou came this year, the Leng family suddenly had so many worries. The round table that had been arranged in the hall had been removed and replaced with small food tables, arranged on both sides of the hall.
.
After all, Mr. Leng and Mrs. Leng are the elders in the family. Even though they are the younger generation, according to the rules, they still have to sit in the upper seat. But with such a distinguished guest, the seat of honor must be given to Guo Wanrou. After such an arrangement, Wu Ma
The family no longer had the right to attend the banquet. Not only that, because there were guests, they had to pay more attention to the food, so Wu Ma's home-cooked dishes would not be on the table. Leng Changxi was very unhappy about this.
During the dinner, the Leng family and his wife sat on the left side of Guo Wanrou, while Leng Changxi and Leng Zhanchen sat on her right side. Only Zhao Yuan was left. Logically speaking, he should sit next to Leng Zhanchen.
Who would have thought that when Guo Wanrou saw him alone, she immediately smiled and said, "As Master Yuan, how can I sit at the end? There is still a seat next to me, Master Yuan, please come and sit here!"
After saying that, he immediately moved out an empty seat and pulled Zhao Yuan to sit next to him in full view of everyone. Everyone knew Sima Zhao's intentions.
Leng Changxi saw this, but she didn't smile and just stuffed things into her mouth. As the saying goes: the higher you climb, the harder you fall. At this moment, she really hoped that Guo Wanrou could make that purpose more obvious.
, only then will it hurt if you really fall, and will you never forget it.
"Mr. Yuan, this braised pork elbow tastes quite good, try it." Guo Wanrou said as she gently picked up a piece of braised pork elbow and placed it in Zhao Yuan's bowl.
Zhao Yuan frowned slightly and thanked her politely, but didn't say anything.
When Guo Wanrou saw that Zhao Yuan did not reject her, she was immediately overjoyed and served him a few more dishes. Leng Changxi looked at it and snorted coldly in her heart.
"This braised elbow needs a little fire. It's a bit hard and not as delicious as Jin Yu Man Tang's." Leng Changxi poked the elbow with her chopsticks and said with a frown.
Leng Zhanchen on the side raised his eyebrows secretly. He didn't know what the bandit was thinking. Although he knew it, he chose not to speak.
"This crab cake is not well made either. It's too soft and not as chewy as Jin Yu Man Tang's!" Leng Changxi continued to poke at the delicate dots on the plate.
Then, the chopsticks moved to another plate: "And this Dongpo pork, it's too greasy! It's not as refreshing as Jin Yu Man Tang's!"
"A house full of gold and jade?" Finally, Leng Changxi's words aroused Guo Wanrou's interest.
"Sister Wanrou, haven't you heard? When you arrive in Jiazhou, the place you must go to is Jinyu Mantang. Even Taizong was full of praise for the dishes there!" Leng Changxi said with a beaming expression, as if she was not letting it slip easily.
He said: "Even Brother Yuan likes several dishes in Jinyu Mantang very much..."
"This tastes pretty good!" Leng Changxi changed her tone in a hurry, as if she accidentally let it slip. When Guo Wanrou heard this, she immediately became interested, her eyes lit up, and she thought: After all, he is just a brainless child.
It's really easy to deal with.
She quietly glanced at Zhao Yuan and saw that Zhao Yuan frowned when Leng Changxi said that, with an expression that seemed impatient. At that moment, Guo Wanrou was happy in her heart, thinking that Zhao Yuan probably didn't like Leng Changxi.
, but it was just because I had an appointment in advance that I had no choice. As a result, my confidence increased greatly.
"Since my sister recommends it so much, then I must try it." Guo Wanrou looked at Zhao Yuan with an eager face and said, "But this is the first time for Wanrou to come to Jiazhou City, so she is very unfamiliar. She just doesn't know Wanrou.
Is it such an honor for Rou to have Young Master Yuan accompany you?"
"This..." Zhao Yuan, whose name was suddenly called, glanced at Leng Changxi indifferently, but saw that the little bully turned his head away deliberately as if he had a guilty conscience.
His starry eyes were half closed, he pondered for a while, and said slowly: "If Miss Guo doesn't mind it, I'd like to accompany you."
After receiving the promise, Guo Wanrou smiled so proudly that she didn't even notice the trace of a sly smile flashing across Leng Changxi's eyes.
