Abandoned Woman Busy Farming
Chapter 160 The old man’s unkind invitation
I don’t know why the old man thought of Bai Ruozhu as a sinister villain. Of course, Bai Ruozhu never thought that she was a kind person, but this time she was really wronged. She had just learned that Yu Hongxiu was from Jiangnan, and even she She had no idea that Bai Yibo was so ignorant that he thought crabs were despicable things, otherwise she would have reminded Bai Yibo for the sake of her guests.
Yu Hongxiu started to move, but no one was eating. She and Mr. Xie were a little embarrassed to eat. Bai Ruozhu saw Yu Hongxiu's embarrassment and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xie knows the authentic way to eat crabs. Let's eat crabs today." I'm lucky enough to be able to learn from Mrs. Xie."
When she said this, Yu Hongxiu's eating crabs became a demonstration for everyone. She could show off her ladylike demeanor and explain it openly.
Yu Hongxiu smiled gratefully at Bai Ruozhu, and then generously explained to everyone how to eat crabs.
Bai Ruozhu was about to go back to the kitchen to continue working. When she turned around, she saw Bai Yibo making a mouth gesture at her. Although it was silent, she could see that it was three words: flatterer.
Bai Ruozhu didn't care about him. This kind of person was so stupid that he did stupid things. She helped him clean up the mess. What qualifications did he have to call her a flatterer? He was a scholar and had no knowledge at all. Bai Ruozhu was very curious about how he got into the exam.
Soon Bai Ruozhu's other dishes were served one by one, and one of them, Maoxuewang, particularly interested Mr. Xie. It turned out that Mr. Xie liked dishes with strong flavors.
After hearing Mr. Xie's compliment, Bai Ruozhu said with a smile: "Then there will be hot and sour belly soup later, which should be the same as Mr. Xie's taste."
Mr. Xie nodded happily, "The name sounds interesting to me."
Bai Ruozhu put the subsequent soups and snacks on the table. She looked at the stewed pears and suddenly slapped her head. How could she forget this? Crabs are already cold. If you eat cold pears, it will easily damage the spleen and stomach, especially for people with weak spleen and stomach.
She didn't eat crabs herself, and Qiu Zao was thinking about stewing pears to soothe her throat, so she actually forgot such an important thing.
"Mrs. Xie, this pear stew doesn't taste good to you. Pears and crabs can't be eaten together, but I neglected it." Bai Ruozhu smiled apologetically at Yu Hongxiu.
"I'm calling you Sister Hongxiu, don't alienate us all." Yu Hongxiu smiled and glared at Bai Ruozhu, but she didn't mean to complain. It was obvious that she meant her words to others. After saying this, she put the stewed pears on the table. When he got to the side, he said, "Then I'll drink other soups the same way."
Originally this was a trivial matter, those who didn't eat crabs could eat stewed pears, and those who ate crabs could drink milky white fish soup, but Bai Yibo felt that he had seized the opportunity to cause trouble for Bai Ruozhu.
"Can't pears and crabs be eaten together? Pears are fruits. I have never heard of them being incompatible with anything. Ruozhu, please don't talk nonsense." Bai Yibo had a smile on his face, as if he was kindly preaching to the younger generation. .
This time, before Bai Ruozhu could speak, Bai Zepei said calmly: "What the little sister said makes sense. Crabs are cold in nature, and pears are also cold. At the same time, they are bad for the spleen and stomach."
"Ze Pei's analysis is right. I haven't seen you for a few days, and your knowledge has broadened again. I am deeply pleased." Mr. Xie nodded in approval.
After a few words, Bai Ruozhu's words were confirmed. It was Mr. Xie who spoke. Bai Yibo was speechless again. He didn't know whether it was anger or shame, but his face turned red.
Mr. Xie was "deeply gratified" by Bai Zepei's recognition. On the other hand, Bai Yibo was too ill-informed and had lived a long life in vain.
The scientific examination of Danliang Kingdom did not approve of studying rote books, otherwise it would not pay attention to strategic aspects. Many scholars would even go on study tours, because there is a saying that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. The more places you go, the more knowledge you will gain. It will also grow a lot.
And Bai Yibo is a typical negative teaching material. He is too lazy and has been sitting at home and eating his old age. He finally became a scholar at an early age, but his knowledge is very short-sighted.
When Mr. Bai saw that his eldest son was embarrassed again, he coughed angrily. Everyone hurriedly asked a few questions. Lin Ping'er also hurriedly poured him hot soup. It took him a long time to regain his composure.
"It's okay, it's just that the fish bone got stuck, which made everyone laugh." Mr. Bai said.
Bai Ruozhu quietly glanced at the old man's bowl. The fish soup was made from fish heads, which had no thorns. Moreover, she carefully filtered it through clean gauze. How could the thorns get stuck? The old man's excuses made it appear that she was careless and did not consider the safety of her elders and guests.
She pursed her lips and decided not to speak.
Bai Yibo stood up very filially and patted the old man on the back. He sighed and said, "You have to be careful when making fish. After all, it is for the elderly."
This time he was smart and didn't mention Bai Ruozhu's name, but the target of the blame still fell on Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu smiled slightly and said, "It was my negligence. I shouldn't have given Grandpa fish soup. Why not give him hot and sour tripe soup instead?"
The old man waved his hands and said with a very generous look: "It doesn't matter, it's because I'm old and my eyesight can't even see the thorns clearly. You can go down to eat and don't worry about me."
Look, these words sounded considerate, but if you listened carefully, they sounded like complaints. He was dazzled and couldn't see clearly, but Bai Ruozhu didn't know how to think about him.
The most important thing people say is "You go down to eat", which means that you don't need to serve the table, you only go to the kitchen to eat.
Some families in the countryside are very patriarchal, and women are not allowed to serve at the table. Men are allowed to sit at the table and eat and drink, but they can only wait for the men to finish eating and eat the leftovers in the kitchen.
But the Bai family doesn't have such rules, at least the second bedroom of the Bai family doesn't have such rules. The old man really hates Bai Ruozhu and doesn't even want her to serve at the table.
Lin Ping'er's eyes stood up. Bai Ruozhu quietly shook his head at her, telling her not to be impulsive and pretend not to understand. A quarrel at this time would be embarrassing for his family.
"Ruozhu, come and sit next to me. Tell me how you made this golden thread oil tower. I really like it." Yu Hongxiu smiled and waved to Bai Ruozhu, and enthusiastically asked Bai Ruozhu to sit next to her.
Bai Ruozhu smiled gratefully at her, moved a stool and sat next to her.
The old man's face turned green and white. He probably thought Bai Ruozhu was too bold and didn't take her words seriously, so he put down his chopsticks in anger.
Mr. Xie respected the elders after all. He toasted to the old man with a smile and said a few more polite words before the old man picked up his chopsticks again.
"Well, my eldest son has lived with me in the country all year round. I feel wronged to him. He is also filial and has always been by my side, which has also delayed him from going out to gain experience." After drinking two glasses of wine, the old man looked ashamed. said to Mr. Xie.
"Brother Yibo is a late bloomer and will definitely develop better in the future." Mr. Xie said politely.
"I also hope that he can go further, so I have a merciless request." The old man said and looked at Mr. Xie's face, and the expressions of everyone in the second room of the Bai family changed.
