Chapter 669 671. Cousins
Gu Leping looked surprised, "Lolo, I didn't expect you to like this.
We were a little surprised when we saw people selling it at the market before.
I heard that they were all good ingredients for cooking. I was wondering how much courage it would take to eat them. I didn’t expect you to be so brave, Luoluo.”
After Gu Leping finished speaking, he gave him a thumbs up, then changed his tone and asked curiously, "Tell me, brother, how is this? Is it delicious?"
The people watching the fun nearby are also curious. They don’t have the courage to try it, but there is someone in front of them who is brave enough to try it, which should satisfy their curiosity.
Gu Benluo, “Brothers, you must be curious too, so sit down and I will tell you about it.
Uncle Jiang, it's rare to meet a few brothers here, so is it okay to invite them to taste together?"
At this moment, Gu Lexi touched her round belly and quietly stepped back.
Although he likes delicious food, he really can't accept these things.
And he was not stupid. Luo Luo was inviting them to dine together, so why did he ask Jiang Shuiniu beside him? There must be something behind this.
There was no time to remind the others, and some of them just sat there stupidly.
Jiang Shuiniu said with a smile, "The eldest son can make the decision, and the younger ones just need to watch and not waste food."
Lolo understood, and enthusiastically helped the brothers pull out their stools, and asked the waiter to set the table.
This attentive greeting made Gu Lexi's previous ominous premonition even stronger. He wanted to escape, but he had no excuse.
At this moment, Gu Benluo actually picked up the plate and put some into everyone's bowl. He did it so quickly that they didn't even have a chance to refuse.
“This is something my father specially had prepared, so please feel free to ask for it.
Uncle Jiang can watch here, we can't waste food."
The hands of the young man from the Gu family holding the bowls froze immediately. After coming to this point, how could they put the food in the bowls back?
"You're welcome. Eat, eat, eat quickly." No matter how warmly Gu Benluo greeted them, no one was interested.
This was not a delicacy for them, and their faces were full of rejection.
This guy is really good. He is ruthless when it comes to cheating his own family.
In fact, Gu Benluo was a little guilty. He just wanted to play a little joke on his mother, but he didn't expect his father to take it so seriously.
He really didn't want to stuff so many bugs into his mouth, so he naturally sought help from his brothers.
"Lolo, you are really our good brother." Gu Lekai gritted his teeth, "I see there seems to be nothing in your bowl. As a brother, I can't eat alone."
As he said this, he took the bowl from in front of him and quickly poured most of it from his own bowl. He wanted to pour it all down, but Gu Leshun next to him quickly snatched it away.
Gu Leshun also poured out most of it. The bowl was full, so he pushed it in front of Gu Benluo and said, "You are a little kid, you are still growing. I heard from the locals here that these are very nutritious. You can't miss it."
The other members of the Gu family are now extremely regretful. Why didn’t they act faster?
Gu Lexi happened to be sitting next to Gu Benluo, gritted his teeth, and said with a smile, "Luluo, you have been following your uncle and aunt outside for these years, and as your brother, I have never done anything for you.
Today, as your brother, I will make it up to you. Come, open your mouth, and I will feed you."
As he said this, he picked up a few insects, picked up a piece with chopsticks, and was about to stuff it directly into Gu Benluo's mouth.
Gu Benluo secretly groaned in his heart. He really had no choice but to eat under the gazes of so many people.
He opened his mouth tremblingly, wanting to refuse, but Gu Lexi took the opportunity to stuff it into his mouth.
"Oh," Gubenlo's eyes widened, his face full of accusation.
Gu Lexi, "Don't waste it, this is Uncle Qi's gift, see if it tastes good?"
Gu Benluo opened his mouth and wanted to spit it out, but Jiang Shuiniu beside him was looking at him with his arms crossed, so he could only suppress his nausea and swallow the food directly.
But how is this possible? The teeth inevitably touched each other, and soon, a unique fragrance seemed to bloom in the mouth. If you feel it carefully, it doesn't seem so unbearable.
Knowing that he couldn't escape today, he might as well try something that the locals could eat. I think there was nothing he couldn't eat.
After he figured it out, his expression became calm.
The people present saw that Gu Benluo seemed to be enjoying it, and their faces looked a little strange and curious.
"How does it taste?" Gu Xueer looked at the food in the bowl, then looked up at Gu Benluo. They were the same. "Does it taste weird?"
Gu Benluo said with a look of surprise, "You know what, it tastes really good. If you don't believe me, try it."
"Don't try to trick us," Gu Leping pouted, "finish your bowl first and then tell us it's delicious."
"Brother Leping, we are brothers. As your younger brother, how can I lie to you..."
"Brother Luo Luo, don't you feel guilty about saying this?"
Gu Benluo, "..."
…
Jin Qianqian and Gu Wenheng soon found out what happened here.
Jin Qianqian rubbed her belly, "Isn't this Luo Luo's own fault? She was repeatedly plotted against."
She didn't feel sorry for what happened to the boss today.
This kid has become more cunning now. It was ok for him to plot against others in the past, but this time he actually plotted against me.
Gu Wenheng snorted, "I think he has been too idle recently. Since I think he can handle two masters, I will give him more lessons when the time comes."
Jin Qianqian, "The child is still young, don't add too much, just add some music, calligraphy, etiquette, etc."
Gu Wenheng turned his head and looked at her, "Isn't it too easy?"
Jin Qianqian smiled particularly sweetly, "Then let's add all of the arts, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. When I have free time, I can sit in the yard and listen to the child playing the piano, and ask him to draw a few pictures for us."
Gu Wenheng, "..."
&
After resting for a period of time, not only has Gu Wenheng gotten back on track, Jin Qianqian has also begun to take on the responsibilities of a mistress of the house.
I went out to attend a few banquets and made friends with some of the wives of local officials and gentry.
However, after this first encounter, she could sense that the people here had completely opposite personalities from those in Lucheng.
People in Lucheng are more cheerful, while people here are more thoughtful. They have to think about what they want to say before they dare to say it out loud.
Moreover, the officialdom here is not as quiet as that in Lucheng. Instead, it is divided into several factions.
Jin Qianqian and the others had just arrived, and even though Cao Xiangqian had provided them with information in advance, it had been many years since he left this place, and many things had changed.
Jin Qianqian is neither making friends nor enemies with anyone now, but is slowly and quietly exploring and perfecting the information she has about the various prefectures.
On this day, she was invited to visit Liang Mansion.
