Hey, this porridge... This porridge is fragrant and smooth but not greasy. How come it tastes the same as the one on Taixi Mountain?
Could it be that the cook on the mountain followed him to Jinling?
No...that's not right...
On Taixi Mountain, apart from Master and our brothers and sisters, there is no one around. Where can we find a cook?
Could it be...could it be that the Xiaobai porridge I drank on the mountain was cooked by Senior Brother Xiaobai?
I turned my head and looked at him in horror: "This porridge..."
"Well, the porridge in this shop is not to my liking. I just borrowed the kitchen to cook a pot. If you don't drink enough, there is some left in the pot, just ask the waiter to bring it."
Senior Brother Xiaobai held the spoon and said without raising his head.
Did he really cook it?
This is really beyond my expectation.
After finishing lunch, the fifth senior brother ordered the waiter to call the shopkeeper.
"If the guest wants to inquire about the Xu family, he has little experience and knowledge, so he really doesn't know much..." The old shopkeeper bowed his head and started laughing.
Upon hearing this, Brother Ninth took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and waved it slowly in front of the shopkeeper.
The old man in charge of the shop immediately beamed and said very attentively: "Young lady, I see that the four of you are handsome and well-behaved. It is fate to meet you today... When it comes to the Xu family in Jinling, the guest officer who asked me is really the right person to ask.
The son of my brother-in-law’s younger wife’s uncle took a job in the Xu Mansion..."
When Brother Ninth heard this, his eyes flashed and he waved the old man in charge to take his seat.
The old shopkeeper thanked us, took half a cup of herbal tea, moistened his throat, and told us the gossip about the Xu family in Jinling.
It is said that the Jinling Xu family is a pharmaceutical family. A certain generation of the Xu family's ancestors once, by chance, saved the life of the founder of the dynasty, the holy ancestor Emperor Gao, who was still a pawn of the traffickers at that time. It can be said that
Without the Jinling Xu family, there would be no Emperor Gao, and there would be no current dynasty.
Emperor Gao was a man who knew how to repay his kindness. After he ascended the throne, Emperor Gao wrote a plaque with the words "Miao Hands to Rejuvenate" and presented it to the Xu family. He also designated the Xu family as medicine suppliers to the royal family.
Therefore, from the beginning of the dynasty to the founding of the country, the Xu family not only became the leader in the medical circle, but also became rich and powerful from generation to generation.
But as the saying goes, every family has its own sutra that is difficult to recite. The Xu family’s sutra that is difficult to recite is the son’s interest. In the past hundred years, no matter how many wives and concubines the men of the Xu family married, most of the children they gave birth to were girls.
Very rare.
Currently, the head of the Xu family, Xu Qingyang, is Xu eldest son. He is a single descendant of the fourth generation. He is in his early twenties, has Pan An's appearance, has a huge family fortune, and has not yet been married.
Hearing this, I was a little confused: "I heard that Mrs. Xu is still alive and well. Doesn't it matter to Mrs. Xu that she is unmarried?"
"Your Majesty, you really hit the mark. This matter has something to do with a maid named Yan'er in the Xu Mansion..." The old shopkeeper paused and moved his chair forward.
Oh? Could it be that Mr. Xu, who was born in a noble family, fell in love with a maid?
I quickly added half a cup of tea to the old shopkeeper. The old shopkeeper took a sip of tea, stroked his gray beard, and continued: "This Yan'er urinates to serve Mr. Xu. I think the two have been in love for a long time. The day before yesterday,
I was drinking with the son of my brother-in-law's younger wife's uncle, and I heard him mention that this Yan'er is already three months pregnant, and now Mrs. Xu can't do anything for the sake of her grandson..."
I privately believe that to achieve a good match and create a good couple, it is not necessary to be a good match. If the husband and wife are not in love and have different interests, even if they are a good match, what is the use? Just like the elegant me and the dandy Xue Yi... Sigh...
