Chapter 163 Wishes
Master Song finally came to his senses and shook his head innocently: "I'm just an ordinary security guard. I'm not some mysterious boss. I just happen to know some things."
"I see..." Bai Mengmeng nodded.
Master Song coughed twice and shook his head helplessly: "Indeed."
Seeing that Bai Mengmeng wanted to speak, he simply started to change the subject.
"Since you don't have a boyfriend yet, how about I introduce you to one? I have quite a few resources, like Cheng Gang, who's all muscle, or Jiang Song, who's also fine. Pretty boys are the most popular, but forget about Yan Lu. He's a dull guy and doesn't seem interesting..."
Bai Mengmeng was speechless.
Master Song's attempt to change the subject was too abrupt.
And even though he has already started cultivating immortality, he still can't escape the fate of blind dates?
Of course, no matter what everyone was thinking, this meal at home was still very enjoyable, and both the host and the guests were happy.
Only when the plate was empty did Master Song nod with satisfaction.
"It's delicious. Next time I catch a fish, I'll come find you again."
Bai Mengmeng grinned: "Looking forward to seeing you!"
After going out, the smile on Master Song's face faded and he stood at the door for a while. He originally wanted to go up and say something to Bai Mengmeng.
But the small orange light made him a little dazed. After he came to his senses, he smiled and shook his head, with a look of relief on his face, and turned away.
…
Bai Mengmeng waited until everyone left.
He and the other two could no longer bear it and quickly told Liang Cha the news they had just heard over the phone.
As he was talking, Xu Bo actually took out a bottle of beer from the cabinet and began to taste it slowly.
Bai Mengmeng didn't stop anyone and couldn't help but feel suspicious when she saw this scene. He drank one cup after another without changing his expression?
Could it be that this wine is drinkable?
She looked at the wine in the glass carefully and found that the rice wine was slightly yellowish, but not very turbid. Instead, it looked clear and really looked like it could be drunk.
Xu Bo laughed heartily: "You really don't trust me, do you? This wine is really delicious. Do you want to try it?"
Bai Mengmeng was still a little hesitant. Although the wine looked good, her previous wine drinking had left her with quite serious psychological trauma.
"I really know how to make rice wine. I learned it from your grandfather."
Bai Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, thought about it and poured a glass directly.
She put some into her mouth and immediately tasted a soft and sweet flavor lingering between her lips and teeth.
The taste is somewhat refreshing, with a sweet aftertaste and a faint smell of fermented wine, but it is not astringent.
“Delicious!”
Xu Bo smiled then: "I told you that I can brew rice wine, but you guys didn't believe me. The wine I made before was just an accident. I just don't know how to make it, so it tastes so bad." He was so happy today that he couldn't stop smiling.
One cup after another, even the beer was drunk up.
Bai Mengmeng was at a loss for words. How could she have gotten drunk while drinking?
Rice wine can actually make people drunk?
"Master! Master!" Xu Bo began to mutter in a drunken voice.
"You're always drunk here. Let's go back quickly." Bai Mengmeng stepped forward and supported the man.
But the next moment, tears slowly flowed down his face, with a bit of turbidity.
"Let's see, I've fulfilled all three of the wishes you gave me..."
Bai Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, and only then did she suddenly realize that the leader in the other person's mouth might not be herself, but her grandfather.
She couldn't help herself for a moment and asked in a low voice: "What wish?"
"My granddaughter is safe, Liangcha has recovered, and my son..."
The voice became increasingly unclear, and Bai Mengmeng pricked up her ears but couldn't hear the last few words clearly.
Seeing that the person had started snoring, she could only sigh helplessly, but she had no choice but to leave.
…
Unexpectedly, when Xu Bo woke up and faced Bai Mengmeng's questions about his grandfather's three wishes before his death, he flatly denied them and even pretended to be confused.
"You heard wrong. There is no wish at all."
"You clearly said it all!"
"Your grandfather hopes for world peace."
Bai Mengmeng was dissatisfied and chopped the tomato in her hand into thin pieces. "I know it clearly. I heard it for the first two months. What was the last one?"
Xu Bo was terrified when he saw this.
"Your grandfather hopes that his granddaughter can be gentler and more ladylike."
Bai Mengmeng's eyes widened, her face serious. "I think I heard something. Is the third wish related to my father?"
Xu Bo hesitated for a moment: "You must have heard it wrong, I was just hiccuping, don't let your imagination run wild."
Bai Mengmeng: ...
Since he doesn't want to talk, there is no way to get the truth out of him.
Bai Mengmeng could only cut tomatoes angrily. This man is old and he is really good at fooling people!
What exactly happened between grandpa and dad back then?
Bai Mengmeng actually always wanted to find out, but unfortunately Xu Bo knew the truth but was unwilling to tell her.
"One day I'll buy some good wine, and then you'll get drunk again!" Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but think.
…
After the tomatoes are cut, start heating oil in a pan to prepare cooking.
Yesterday, after the squirrel mandarin fish was cooked, the aroma drifted outside. Someone outside even knocked on the door loudly, saying that they smelled a particularly good smell.
Xu Bo’s excuse at the time was that he was tasting the food and was going to make a vegetable dish today.
This is certainly not a complete bluff, she decided to make a new dish today, prawns in tomato sauce!
Bai Mengmeng didn't plan to use purchased tomato sauce for the tomato sauce. Instead, she picked all the ripe tomatoes and planned to make it herself.
"Master, the shrimp is ready."
Bai Mengmeng picked up the prawns and fried them in oil.
When the shrimp shells become crispy, the flavor of the soup can be fully absorbed and the dish will taste even more delicious.
"That should be enough."
Take out the prawns and start making the tomato sauce with the prawn oil.
Add onion, ginger and garlic, stir-fry until fragrant, then remove from the heat and pour in the tomatoes.
Cook over medium heat until the two tomatoes soften little by little.
After frying until dry, add water to make the taste more intense.
Wait until it is fully cooked and has a sweet and sour smell, then add pepper, salt and sugar.
If the tomato flavor is not enough, adding tomato paste will certainly make it better.
But the tomatoes grown by Bai Mengmeng are of great quality, so there is no need for this.
When the soup became thicker, Bai Mengmeng sieved it through a strainer.
The red tomato sauce is bright in color and rich in flavor. Although it has nothing extra added, it is still very tempting.
