Chapter 156 Who is Master Lü?



Xu Xiangyang had no idea that after he left, Liu Feng and Wu Hao were fighting like dogs.

Even if I knew, I wouldn't have any particular feelings about it.

It would be best if neither of them had any good intentions towards him and both ended up in a bad way.

He got off at the supply and marketing cooperative stop and parted ways with Cao Yajun.

If it weren't for the numerous reminders I received today, I probably wouldn't even know I'd been sold out.

Of course, it's impossible for him to say he didn't know; it's just that the incident happened suddenly, which made him a little flustered.

Liu Feng is keeping an eye on him all the time; it's time to give them something to do.

Xu Xiangyang returned home and sat in a chair listening to the wiretapped recordings from the past two days.

He really wanted to put a sack over Liu Feng's head and beat him up, but since they were both men, they couldn't be as easy to deal with as women.

Once discovered, there's no point in talking about revenge; you might just be sent away and imprisoned.

After all, his father was a bureau chief, while his father was just a working-class man.

Therefore, if you're going to make a move, you must strike at his weak point; otherwise, don't bother.

Xu Xiangyang also needs to be fully prepared and cautious. It's more important than anything else to avoid getting into trouble.

He listened while thinking about this matter.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded, followed by Director Liu's voice.

"Bang..." A sound of slamming a table rang out.

Immediately, Director Liu's voice rang out, clearly suppressed. "What does Master Lü mean?!"

Master Lü?

Xu Xiangyang had some questions. Who was Master Lü? He'd never heard of such a person in Xincheng.

He listened carefully and then looked at the sky outside.

"Director Liu, does Master Lü no longer want to cooperate?" Master Zhang's voice suddenly rang out.

Xu Xiangyang raised an eyebrow. These two weren't at work but were actually going to the office. It seemed like they really had something on their minds.

"Heh." Director Liu sneered and said, "He doesn't want to cooperate, isn't he just trying to cause trouble? Does he really think he can go it alone without me? He's overestimating himself."

"Yes, yes, yes! Director Liu, he's shameless. If you hadn't been there, he wouldn't even have enough to eat." Master Zhang's voice rang out at the right moment.

Xu Xiangyang pursed his lips. He really couldn't tell. Master Zhang, who was usually so aloof, could be quite the sycophant.

Tsk tsk tsk, the world is going to the dogs.

Director Liu didn't say anything, and the two remained silent for a while before making a sound.

"Go over there and ring the bell for him in a bit, so he won't be wondering who his benefactors are." Director Liu's words were rather vague.

Xu Xiangyang didn't understand, but Master Zhang did.

"No problem, then Director Liu, I'll head over first." After he finished speaking, footsteps were heard, followed by the sound of the door closing.

After a while, footsteps sounded, followed by the sound of a door closing.

I guess Director Liu went out too, otherwise there would have been so many sounds of doors closing.

Xu Xiangyang lowered his head and pondered, who was this Master Lü, and what was the relationship between them?

That Mr. Zhang seems to know a lot of things, but he doesn't usually talk to other people, so it's probably not going to work if you try to get information out of him.

But how to find out what's inside has put Xu Xiangyang in a stalemate again.

I don't know much about the situation here right now, and it's too difficult to find out anything.

After turning off the listening device, Xu Xiangyang lay on the bed and began to think about how he could learn more about the situation.

At the very least, we need to know who Master Lü is. Once we know who he is, we'll have solved half the problem.

Because today was Grandma Wang's first day after being discharged from the hospital, Xu Xiangyang did not go out in the afternoon, but stayed at home with them.

Wang Xiumin was unwell, and Grandma Wang was also unable to move around, so Xu Xiangyang took the initiative to prepare dinner.

"Is that alright? Son, I remember you don't seem to know how to cook, do you?" Wang Xiumin looked at him with some doubt.

After all these years, how could she not know her son? He used to be so lazy and good-for-nothing…

But things are different now. She's filial and sensible, just like her!

Faced with everyone's doubts, Xu Xiangyang smiled and said, "When I first came here to work, eating in the cafeteria wasn't suitable, so I figured out how to cook for myself. Of course, don't expect it to be good or not."

He can't go his whole life without cooking. One day he'll have to live alone, and he wants to put his family at ease.

As the family watched him enter the kitchen, Grandma Wang said with some concern, "Why don't I go cook?"

She was worried that Xu Xiangyang might set the kitchen on fire. It wasn't uncommon for men to cook, but they had never seen Xu Xiangyang cook before.

Wang Zhongshan, who was standing to the side, frowned and said, "You just sit there quietly. If the child wants to do it, let him do it."

He believed that this was his eldest grandson's filial piety, so why shouldn't he believe the child?

Even if the food they cook doesn't taste good, they will still accept it.

Just as the family was waiting anxiously, a delicious aroma wafted in from outside.

This time, everyone saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and any doubts had long since vanished.

Xu Xiangyang spent an hour making a braised fish, pork ribs stewed with green beans, cucumber salad, and tofu salad with scallions.

There was also an egg and seaweed soup, making it four dishes and one soup – perfect.

"My God!" Wang Xiumin exclaimed as if she were seeing her son for the first time.

She stared blankly at Xu Xiangyang. How could she have given birth to such a perfect son? Handsome, capable, and even a good cook!

Judging by its appearance, you'd know it's better than what a restaurant chef makes, even before you eat it.

Xu Xiangyang looked at everyone and said with a smile, "Come on, let's eat. You can't say it's not good."

What a joke! I've been single for thirty years, so my cooking skills are definitely top-notch. Even if I don't cook often, I've never forgotten how to make everyday dishes.

Everyone was surprised, but after waiting for so long, they were starving.

After taking a few bites, they couldn't stop eating.

This isn't just ordinary home cooking; it's a taste you can't get in restaurants.

This meal allowed everyone to once again appreciate Xu Xiangyang's usual skills.

After a hearty meal, Xu Guangtian patted his stomach and said, "Oh dear, I just realized that your mother's cooking is like pig swill. Xiangyang, you should cook a couple of meals more often to satisfy our cravings."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiumin slapped him on the head in anger.

"Fine, then you can eat pig swill from now on. You can eat wherever you want!"

This time she was really angry. What kind of pig slop was this? Look at the meal her son made! The vegetables were all oily. Who wouldn't cook something delicious?

Of course, this idea was just her way of comforting herself; even if she were asked to make it, she couldn't recreate the taste.

Xu Xiangyang smiled. He had added a lot of seasonings, while his family only used oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar when cooking, and nothing they made was quite right.

Xu Guangtian looked at Wang Xiumin with a wronged expression; he had only been saying it casually.

But Wang Xiumin showed him with her actions that there really was no breakfast for him the next morning!

Xu Guangtian: Women really shouldn't be offended...
