Chapter 579 Someone from Pengcheng has returned and wants to see Mr. Tan
The old man was muttering to himself when a familiar smell drifted in from outside the door.
"Oh! I was thinking that on such a festive day today, Li Feng would definitely make the most delicious Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
Shang Lifeng walked in with the last dish, which was the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that Mr. Tan had mentioned.
"Uncle Tan, if you like this dish, I can make it for you anytime as long as I have enough ingredients."
"Hey... I, an old man, originally didn't have much of an appetite. But since I met you and your son, I have become more and more greedy as I get older..." Mr. Tan joked.
But this is indeed the truth. He never had any requirements for food. He was satisfied as long as he could eat his fill.
Who would have thought that ever since I ate the dishes cooked by the mother and son of the Shang family, I no longer like to eat any other food.
Now the four little ones are one year old and can eat some easily digestible food.
Shang Ruoting specially drew a blueprint of a children's dining chair according to the style of her previous life, and Tan Chen asked a carpenter to help make it, one for each child.
Shang Ruoting believes that children should develop self-care abilities from an early age.
Right now, the four little ones are sitting quietly in their dining chairs, eating the delicious meals made by their grandpa.
In this way, Jiang Ping and others can sit at the dinner table and eat with everyone peacefully, just looking at the children from time to time.
The family was happily enjoying a delicious meal when the phone suddenly rang.
Tan Chen got up to answer the phone.
It was Xiao Li's voice on the other end of the phone.
Is this Comrade Tan Chen? I'm Xiao Li.
"Yeah, it's me. What's up?"
Someone has returned from Pengcheng and wants to see Mr. Tan.
"Hold on."
Tan Chen turned and looked at Mr. Tan.
"Grandpa, Xiao Li called and said the people from Pengcheng are back."
Mr. Tan's kind face, which was looking at the little ones, immediately became serious.
"Tell Xiao Li to bring the person here to see me."
Tan Chen picked up the phone and conveyed his grandfather's words to Xiao Li before hanging up.
Everyone present knew that the people who came back from Pengcheng must have found some clues on how to deal with Liu Dingbing.
The originally peaceful atmosphere suddenly became oppressive.
Mr. Tan looked at everyone, especially Shang Lifeng, and said:
"Eat, eat first, don't think too much, everything will be settled after we get here."
Tan Shaowen also echoed: "Yes, the people coming back from Pengcheng must have made new progress. Progress is a good thing, otherwise they wouldn't have come back, so we don't have to worry."
Although Shang Lifeng was not at peace in his heart, he did not want to affect everyone's festive atmosphere because of his own affairs.
"Uncle Tan is right. Let's eat quickly. The food won't taste good if it gets cold."
Although someone tried to adjust the atmosphere, the lively atmosphere at the dinner table was no longer there.
An hour later, everyone was full and satisfied.
Everyone went to the living room to drink tea and chat, waiting for someone to come.
Just after taking a sip of tea, Xiao Li arrived with Chen Wei, who looked exhausted, and his assistant.
Shang Ruoting quickly brought two chairs and asked the two to sit down.
As soon as Mr. Tan saw the two men's expressions, he knew that they were very tired. He did not immediately ask about Liu Dingbing's situation. Instead, he asked with concern: "You have worked hard on the journey. Have you not had lunch yet?"
Chen Wei said respectfully, "Thank you, Mr. Tan, for your concern. We haven't had lunch yet."
Actually, Chen Wei wanted to say, we have already eaten, but smelling the tempting aroma of the food, his tongue couldn't help but tell the truth for the first time...
Shang Lifeng quickly stood up and said, "I'll go get some food."
Chen Wei wanted to slap himself in the face.
I have always been very tactful in what I say and do. Today I wanted to perform well in front of Mr. Tan, but why is my tongue out of control?
When someone serves food to him in front of Mr. Tan and his family, will he eat it or not?
At this time, the assistant beside him was also a little embarrassed. How could he start eating in front of so many people?
Although the aroma of food in the yard was very tempting, he didn't have the courage to eat in front of Mr. Tan. How disrespectful would that seem to be to his old leader?
The two were just thinking about how to find a staircase to go down when Shang Lifeng came in with a big bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and two bowls of white rice.
"You guys eat first!"
Chen Wei and his assistant took a look at the dish in the bowl and could already conclude that the aroma in the yard came from this dish.
The two looked at Mr. Tan guiltily.
Do we really have to let Mr. Tan watch them eat?
"Mr. Tan..." Chen Wei still wanted to say something.
"Don't worry, finish eating quickly so we can get down to business."
Of course, Mr. Tan knew what the two of them were thinking. They were just being reserved in front of him.
After hearing what Mr. Tan said, the two stopped worrying and picked up their chopsticks to start eating.
At the same time, I also guessed the origin of this dish.
