Chapter 545 547. Just Getting Fat
When Gu Wenheng heard this, his face changed and he quickly lowered his head to check his body shape.
There doesn't seem to be much change. At least the official robe is still as loose as before.
Wu Yichen smiled and added, "It's not obvious in other places, just the face is rounder and the belly is a little fatter..."
Gu Wenheng, "..." This made me feel a little depressed, but it seemed that there really was a little bit of it, but I just didn't notice it.
It seems that the daily midnight snack can be banned. After finishing the current tasks, it is time to take the children for some good exercise.
He Gaofei, "The two of you stop talking nonsense here. If you were to live in the same way as Mr. Gu, you might have to go through a lot of twists and turns.
After all, he has such a capable wife who takes care of him with good food and wine all day long. If he doesn’t gain weight, it means there is something wrong.”
Gu Wenheng was thinking that He Gaofei would speak up for justice this time, and was preparing to say a few polite words to express his gratitude.
“Master Gu, although the food is delicious, you still have to pay attention to your health and not overeat.
If there are such delicious dishes in the future, I don't mind helping you share some, so that Madam Gu's kindness will not be wasted."
After swallowing the words, Gu Wenheng suddenly felt that he did not know his three colleagues well enough. They were willing to sacrifice their dignity just for a little food.
Lu Shenggen: "..." The thickness of this face is almost as thick as the city wall.
Wu Yichen: “…” Haha, I knew that something bad would happen as soon as this guy opened his mouth.
Gu Wenheng, "...Thank you for your concern, it's all my fault..."
He, Lu and Wu's eyes were all shining, as if they were preparing for a wave of benefits.
Gu Wenheng glanced at them and continued, "Thank you very much, Mr. He, but these are all gifts from my wife, so I can't give them to you.
Several adults have been out for a long time. After all, staying here alone is not a long-term solution. I wonder when your wives will arrive?
In the backyard, my wife is really lacking some company."
The three people present all understood the hidden meaning. If they wanted to eat and drink well, they should go find their wives.
He Gaofei and the others looked at each other, then smiled foolishly, "Master Gu is right, this backyard should still be left to women to run."
Lu Yichen, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you all. Yesterday, my unruly servant did something stupid. He even put salt twice in the noodle soup.
But I was too tired when I got home yesterday, and I didn’t have time to wait for him to cook a second bowl, so I just ate it anyway, which resulted in me swallowing a bellyful of water in the second half of last night.”
Lu Shenggen, "You drinking water is fine, but my long-time attendant is even more excessive. He learned a special dish from the locals. The weird taste almost sent me away."
"I have advised you a long time ago to find a wife, so that at least the food cooked by you can be eaten." He Gaofei thought about his current life, which was the best among the three of them, and couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Hey, eat some food, eat some food," Lu Shenggen felt miserable. When his tigress went out, she grabbed his long-time attendant and used threats and bribes on him, so that now he doesn't even have a wife around him, let alone a wife.
Wu Yichen also had his own worries. "There is no wine, so let's have tea and wine, and toast to Lord Gu to thank him and Madam Gu for their generosity."
Gu Wenheng also raised the teacup in his hand, "When we get through this period, I will hold a banquet at Tianfu Restaurant, and everyone will not leave until they are drunk."
"That's good," Wu Yichen said excitedly, "Ever since I drank with Lieutenant General last time, I've been thinking about it all the time. I don't ask for much, I'll just serve the banquet that Lieutenant General ordered that day."
"Oh, your request is not high enough?" Gu Wenheng looked at him with a smile, "I heard from the shopkeeper that when Li Ji settled the bill that day, his face was very long, and it was said that all the banknotes in his purse were emptied."
Wu Yichen smiled slyly, "Master Gu, next time we have to greet the owner of Tianfu Restaurant. When we take people there again, remember to treat them to good wine and good food."
He Gaofei put down his chopsticks and looked up at him. "What are you thinking? After what happened last time, Admiral Li might have already listed us as someone he cannot have any contact with. If you still want to cheat him, it will probably be difficult."
Wu Yichen, "Then how about we make a bet? I tell you, that guy will definitely come to me next time."
Gu Wenheng smiled without saying anything and added half a bowl of soup to himself. The chefs at Tianfu Restaurant were getting better and better in cooking skills, and he had even gained weight because of them.
Lu Shenggen, "How do you know?"
"The secret cannot be revealed. Remember to cooperate with me when the time comes. We will have another go at eating at a big restaurant."
Gu Wenheng (a wealthy man): "..." Should I tell someone to collect the bowls now?
He Gaofei coughed dryly, "We are not eating at the rich man's expense. We are teaching that kid a lesson, so that he won't stay at the border for too long and his brain won't work."
Wu Yichen also noticed that the other party was giving him a look, and knew that he had just said something wrong. "Yes, I just can't stand his arrogant look. Just wait and see. This kid has a lot of ideas, but he is not very smart. He will bump into me again."
Gu Wenheng reminded them meaningfully, "Don't make too much trouble. Be careful that the other party will make things difficult for you."
Wu Yichen suddenly became a little depressed, "We are counting on him to make things difficult for us. Even if he is not there, there will be someone else."
They have now revitalized this city, and it won't be long before someone sets their sights on them.
However, this is real political achievement that others cannot erase, but they will not be given many opportunities to shine. The biggest possibility is that they will be promoted in name only and demoted in reality and transferred to other pension departments.
Since he can already predict the future, he can do whatever makes him feel comfortable.
How could Gu Wenheng not know the ins and outs of this matter? However, as a local official, the people above him did not dare to make too much trouble for him.
The easiest thing to calculate is the current position of He Gaofei and others. Perhaps they will be transferred for various reasons without having to wait until the three-year term is up.
He and Zhou Shixiong had also discussed these things. If a stranger with unknown background was transferred in, it might affect their next plans.
Zhou Shixiong had already sent a secret letter to the current emperor about the seriousness of the matter, but he couldn't tell them these things clearly for the time being.
"Don't worry, General Zhou is watching. He won't be able to jump around too much." Gu Wenheng smiled and pointed at the mouth-watering chicken in front of him and said, "Try this new dish that the restaurant has just released. If there is anything you don't like, just let me know. We will ask the kitchen to improve it next time."
"Then we should taste it carefully. We can be said to have tasted the delicious food before others."
The superiors and subordinates finished testing each other and began to attack the food.
I'm sorry to waste your precious time. Please recommend, vote, and star me!
