Zhou Xiang immediately stood up and replied respectfully, "Thank you for the compliment, old man."
Old Master Xiao laughed heartily. "Don't be so modest. You are all very kind. No wonder Xiaoxiao is willing to play with Zhou Niao. It's great. You also often have dinner together to strengthen your relationship. Not bad. Remember to include me in the future."
Zhou Xiang didn't know how to respond. How could this old man Xiao tell that they often had dinner together? You're eating for free, don't be so self-righteous!
Jiang Weihua disagreed, "Uncle Xiao, I heard you have three highs, so you can't eat too much of these things."
When Mr. Xiao heard that his diet was restricted here as well, he immediately became unhappy. He came here shamelessly just to eat and drink.
He blew his beard and glared, "Nonsense, how can I have three highs? I only have two highs."
Jiang Weihua was helpless. He couldn't win in terms of voice, and he couldn't win in terms of age. He couldn't suppress the opponent and could only give up.
Seeing that Jiang Weihua was shocked, Mr. Xiao felt relieved. This time, he could eat and drink to his heart's content.
Zhou Xiang quickly went to the front yard and told the chef, "Put less sugar in the fried milk. If it can be delicious without sugar, then don't use it."
The chef agreed to use less sugar.
Zhou Xiang pulled Ling Ran aside and whispered, "Boil this dried fruit in water and use it to make tea. The old man is planning to eat meat and drink wine. If his blood pressure gets high, we can't take responsibility!"
Ling Ran saw a small plastic bag in the little hand in front of him. He took it and rubbed the little girl's head. "You! Can you give this to an old fox like this?"
Zhou wanted to pull the big hand off his head, "This is the worst kind of effect. People who are not careful can't even feel it."
“As long as it works, you can guess it.”
"Well, what do you say we should do?"
Ling Ran thought for a moment and said, "Make it thick and add ginseng to the wine. Even if the wine tastes a little lighter, just tell him it's a medicinal fruit wine."
"Okay! You try and see if he's willing to change the wine! But, does Senior Jiang have any wine? We can't just tear down the wine he brought and make some fresh, right?"
Ling Ran chuckled, "Yes, it's in the cupboard! Let's go to the front yard."
After taking away the small stove for making soup, the two of them hid aside and worked hard for a long time, and finally made two bottles of "herbal fruit wine".
"Ling Ran, buy some wine and soak the dried fruits in it directly. You won't have to make them fresh in the future."
Ling Ran nodded, indicating that some preparations were indeed necessary. "Okay, tomorrow I'll go buy some wine, along with a jar, a wine bottle holder, and a funnel. I'll pour everything into the jar and steep it. Then I'll take out the dried fruit and pour it back into the bottle. No one will be able to guess what's inside."
Zhou Xiang raised his head and said, "Thank you!"
Thank you for defending me and not asking questions even when you had doubts.
Ling Ran touched the top of her head, "Silly! You never need to say thank you to me."
"good!"
The two of them left with their achievement. The chef sniffed hard. The smell just now was so fragrant. He wondered what they were cooking.
The chef looked at the clean pots and bowls and shook his head regretfully. He still wanted to taste them himself!
Dinner was served, and Mr. Xiao finally agreed to sit at the head of the table. Seeing two large bowls of fried chicken legs and fried milk, he smiled and looked for his wine.
"Hua boy, where did you hide my wine?"
Ling Ran quickly took the wine bottle on the sideboard and poured it for the old man. "Mr. Xiao, please try this first. If you are not satisfied, we can change it."
Who knew that the old man nodded immediately after taking a sip, "This is good, it has a sweet taste, but the alcohol content is a little low."
Then, he couldn't help but grab a chicken leg and start chewing it.
A bite of chicken and a sip of wine, that's so generous, everyone just grabs it when they see it.
When Mr. Xiao saw everyone like this, he smiled and praised, "Yes, yes, that's right, this is how you should eat meat, it's more satisfying."
There were twice as many fried chicken legs and fried milk as last time, and they were all eaten up.
Old Master Xiao burped. "Uh, good, good, good. I haven't eaten so comfortably in a long time. It's so good! Let's get together again next week!"
Everyone: "..."
Only Xiao Xiaoxiao praised her grandfather, "Yeah! This kind of dinner party is really fun."
Old Master Xiao left with his granddaughter contentedly, but Jiang Weihua rubbed his temples.
Zhou Niao said, "Uncle, if you don't like Grandpa Xiao, tell him not to come."
Jiang Weihua waved his hands repeatedly. "You can't be so blunt!" How could Mr. Xiao not see that everyone didn't welcome him?
He did it on purpose. No one could control him here, so he could eat and drink as he pleased.
"It's okay! Let him be happy!"
"oh!"
Zhou Niao felt that he was the one who caused this and felt a little unhappy.
Zhou wanted to comfort his elder brother, "It's lively when there are more people, and Senior Jiang likes lively places!"
Jiang Weihua quickly replied, "Yes, yes, but next time you come, tell him to lower his voice. It's too noisy."
Zhou Niao nodded, "Yes, his voice was too loud, and my head was also confused."
Zhou Xiang was a little worried when he heard this, "What about now? Are you still confused?"
Zhou Niao shook his head, "Not bad!"
Zhou Xiang insisted on sending his eldest brother back. When they reached the west room, he locked Ling Ran outside and said, "Wait outside. I want to talk to my eldest brother."
Then, he took his eldest brother up to the attic and conjured up the large wine barrel, which he filled with well water. "Brother, give me a cup of this water every day. Let me know when you're done."
"good!"
He flipped his hand and a piece of fruit appeared. He handed it to his eldest brother and said, "Eat some fruit first."
Feeling a little chilly in the room, Zhou wanted to leave the west room and found Jin Chao, "Brother Chao, can you install an air conditioner in the west room?"
Jin Chao said, "I was just about to talk to you! Now that we have home boiler heating, I want to install one in this yard. Air conditioning isn't very practical. It's not warm enough in the winter, and the house doesn't need it in the summer."
Zhou Xiang nodded repeatedly. "That's perfect. Let's install one quickly and buy some coal to burn. By the way, ask if they're willing to go to Huai County to install it? The building in Xu Town has always had a fire wall."
Jin Chao went into the house to get the money and prepared to go out to do something.
Ling Ran asked quietly, "Should we install one over there as well?"
Zhou Xiang shook his head, "Let's buy an air conditioner over there! This boiler needs to be watched at all times. If you go back, I won't burn the boiler."
Ling Ran thought about it and realized that he couldn't ask a little girl to burn the boiler, right?
"Okay then! I'm accompanying Brother Chao to look at the boiler and discuss the installation in town. If possible, I'll go back in the next two days and install both your building and my house before I come back."
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. I am most happy when I can help you."
Ling Ran followed Jin Chao away, and Zhou Xiang chatted with the blind lady and the eldest brother.
As soon as Mr. Xiao returned home, he was caught by his eldest daughter-in-law and scolded.
Old Master Xiao was impatient. "Oh! Stop nagging. If you're worried, call a doctor to measure it. My whole body feels relaxed, so my blood pressure is definitely not high."
The doctor came and took the blood pressure, and sure enough, it was normal.
Decided to wait two hours to test blood sugar after the meal.
Then, blood sugar is also normal.
