Rescue System: Fleeing Host, calm down
Chapter 223 The White House Banquet
"Old man, please don't refuse. It is only natural to repay a favor. I believe that the elders in the family will be warmly entertained if they know this." Bai Qiuyi saw that the old man's attitude was casual, so he could only move out the elders in the family to show his sincerity.
"Isn't that disturbing!"
"Don't bother me, don't bother me, Xiaosheng will lead the way."
He said and made a respectful gesture of invitation.
"Okay, okay!"
Mr. Hu and Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at each other. This play was good. They successfully moved into the Bai family. Very good. They succeeded in the first step.
If the situation didn't allow it, Cheng Xiaoxiao would have wanted to high-five and cheer, shouting, "Yeah!"
As he walked, Bai Qiuyi introduced the delicious food and beauty of Linjiang County, and showed off his excellent side by the way. From time to time, he secretly glanced at the beautiful lady on the right side of the old man.
I was afraid that I might say something wrong and cause the beauty to be displeased, and my palms became sweaty due to my pinching.
Suddenly it occurred to me that I didn't know the name of my benefactor because I was too nervous and forgot about it. It was really reckless.
Annoyed, Bai Qiuyi still had the courage to speak, "I wonder what I call the old man? I can introduce him to the elders in the family later."
Cheng Xiaoxiao winked at Qi Fei.
So Qi Fei, who was a good communicator, looked seriously injured when he was being supported just now, but he immediately became alive and started chatting with Bai Qiu Yi.
"Our old lady's surname is Di. This young master is the young master of the Bai family, right?"
"Yes, yes."
"Oh! Young Master, just call me Xiao Fei. I am the steward of Di Mansion."
So Qi Fei started chatting with Bai Qiu Yi and tried to trick him.
A large group of people were brought to Bai Mansion by Bai Qiu Yi, looking at the majestic red lacquer gate of the Mansion, with two stone lions in front of it, majestic and domineering.
Cheng Xiaoxiao thought to himself that the Bai family still had some background. I don't know whether it was because they were too upright, or because the younger members of the family failed to live up to their expectations and fell into the Wang family's scheme.
Just now, the system said that the ancestral home of the Wang family next door is not that grand.
The concierge was shocked when he saw his young master bringing a group of people, but he was quickly ordered by the serious-looking young master to inform the master and his wife that a distinguished guest was coming.
A quarter of an hour later, Mr. Hu, Cheng Xiaoxiao, Hu Yixiu and Hu Eryang were sitting in the Bai family's living room.
The old man of the Bai family knew the cause and effect of the matter, and he was very grateful to the Di family for helping him.
After a detailed conversation, I found out that the old man’s ancestral home was Kyoto, and many state capitals had their own industries. Their Di family’s business even reached Beirong and Xidi.
Anyway, the information Cheng Xiaoxiao revealed to them in his words was that their family had a profound background, some of their clan members were officials in the court, and theirs was specialized in the voyage business.
He made a great contribution to the friendly exchanges between the two countries.
Because Xidi was beaten to his lair by Xie Xiao, the then Zhenguo general, fifty years ago. From then on, he bowed his head and paid tribute every year.
Mr. Bai couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that the other party was a powerful businessman. Being able to do business in their Linjiang County was simply their great luck in Linjiang.
Cheng Xiaoxiao said sadly, "The merchant we originally cooperated with was in Yanzhou County. Alas! I didn't expect such a change to happen there."
Everyone couldn't help but think of the various changes in Yanzhou County, which was like a hell on earth, and lamented that the laws of heaven were unfair. Every time there were natural or man-made disasters, ordinary people were often hurt.
"Hey! I heard there aren't many living people left." Mr. Bai sighed.
"Maybe! Boss Li is a very good person. We have worked together for many years. I didn't expect that." Grandpa Hu sighed, as if mourning for his deceased friend. It really seemed like that was the case.
Then, as if there was something unspeakable but difficult to express, he said, "It's okay not to mention it! It's okay not to mention it!"
In the end Hu Aye said nothing.
Mr. Bai sat firmly on Mount Tai, sipping the tea carefully, and was too smart to ask any questions.
Grandpa Hu knew that the heat was not enough, so he wisely did not continue. He changed his tone and said, "This tea is like a spring specialty of Yongzhou." Grandpa Hu took a sip of tea with a cheerful expression, "The taste is long and comfortable.
After the slight bitterness and astringency, it feels sweet, refreshing and refreshing. The aroma is fragrant and long-lasting. Good tea, good tea."
"Hahaha! I didn't expect that the old man is also a tea lover. This spring breeze is hard to find. I finally got some and have been keeping it. I am lucky enough to appreciate it with the old man today. It is really fate."
"Nowhere, no matter how good the taste is for Mr. Di! Nowadays, all teas with good taste are tribute teas, and good folk teas are very rare."
"That's right! Speaking of tribute tea, in the spring of that year, a traveling merchant who specialized in tea business was robbed by bandits and managed to escape. He had nothing to gain, so he used the tea leaves that he finally robbed to buy ten
The traveling expenses were two taels, but I didn’t expect that a year later the tea would become tribute tea.”
"I didn't expect Brother Bai to have such an adventure." Mr. Hu looked envious.
Make Mr. Bai feel happy and feel full of superiority.
"Haha, Brother Di is overly praised. Let me tell you."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Bai, who had been polite and distant before, would talk endlessly about the tea party.
The two old men discussed their tea-tasting experiences at length, making Cheng Xiaoxiao drowsy while sitting aside.
After finally making it to dinner time, the two of them were already calling themselves brothers, which was so jarring.
It is said that men’s brotherhood is incomprehensible to others, but the friendship between old men is also so unique, so unique!
Today was an eye-opener.
But fortunately, Grandpa Hu was there to support the occasion. The ancient way of socializing was really beyond the control of a modern woman like her, at least she didn't know much about tea.
She could only barely taste it, whether it tasted good or not, but she still had to pay for it. As for the rest, she could only haha!
Mr. Bai was in a good mood, as if he had met a close friend. The other Bai family members were also very polite and polite.
When we arrived at the dining hall, the maids and servants had already served almost all the dishes.
According to Cheng Xiaoxiao's request, the Bai family's dinner was very rich, basically almost like an all-fish banquet, with six dishes of fish alone.
Steamed, braised, fried, sauced, fish balls and fish soup, each dish is different, you are indeed a fish connoisseur.
Cheng Xiaoxiao could only admire her. You must know that before Cheng Xiaoxiao came, the only way for the Cheng family to eat fish was to stew it in a pot, or the various ways of eating it were unlocked after she came.
Of course, it may also be because Qingshan Village is too poor.
In Linjiang, which is only a few hundred miles away, the Wang family is not considered an upper-class family, but being so particular shows that the place where she stayed before was too remote and too backward.
What does that old saying say?
Oh! The world is so big, I want to see it.
It is true that she knows very little about this world, and it is time to open her eyes.
When the elders moved their chopsticks, everyone started eating.
The meat dishes taste okay, but the vegetarian dishes are a bit wilted. After all, the temperature has dropped sharply and there are not many fresh vegetables, but it is not like this!
