Shi Liu is not stupid. Not to mention compared with Zhou Pan, even Tang Tang’s relationship with her is closer than Deng Yue’s.
Su Sanlan, who overheard this, was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He slapped his thigh and said with relief, "Thank goodness I didn't help Jiandang. If this had affected his future, it would have been troublesome."
In Su Sanlan's opinion, apart from her own daughter, Shi Jiandang is the most promising one in the Shi family. As a daughter-in-law of the Shi family, she cannot delay her nephew's future, otherwise she will not be ashamed to see Shi Laoer.
Fortunately, Brother Shi and others were far away and did not hear clearly what was said, otherwise they would have been scared.
Originally, Shi Liu didn't think that being on good terms with Deng Yue was anything special, but now, seeing Su Sanlan's horrified eyes, she felt that she was being too self-centered. "If I had known the situation was so serious, I wouldn't have been friends with her."
"Spies become spies because they possess excellent concealment skills. If they truly want to conceal something, ordinary people won't be able to detect it." Zhou Pan smoothed Shi Liu's pigtails. "Don't worry too much. Based on the information I've found so far, this Deng Zhiqing is a good person."
Shi Liu shook her head cautiously: "Let's just keep a distance from each other in the future, and just be best friends."
It was rare to have a good friend of the same sex that she got along well with, but then there were problems in the other person's family. Alas, she found that she didn't have many close friends of the same sex in her past and present lives, and of course not many friends of the opposite sex either. It was a typical case of indifferent interpersonal relationships, and she didn't know what was going on.
A satisfied smile appeared in Zhou Pan's eyes. He hated those people surrounding Shi Liu all day long. Shi Liu only needed to focus on himself.
The pomegranate was completely unaware of all this.
The family sat together talking and laughing when Qiao Hongbin suddenly came to give New Year gifts. Shi Liu didn't think that he came for his family, but most likely for Zhou Pan, so she gave the right to speak to Zhou Pan.
"Hongbin, why are you here? Have you contacted your eldest brother recently?"
"Brother Zhou, I just contacted my elder brother yesterday. He asked me to help deliver the New Year's gift to you. It just so happens that you came down the mountain today, so I came here."
In fact, Qiao Hongbin deliberately sent the things to the Shi family. The purpose of doing so was of course to please Young Master Zhou.
Zhou Pan saw through Qiao Hongbin's little thoughts at a glance, but he didn't care too much. There were some things that were well known between the interactions between the big families, and it would be good to make friends and have fewer enemies in the future.
"Brother Shi San's steamed meat buns are amazing. Eat them first before you leave."
When Su Sanlan heard her son-in-law speak, she quickly and enthusiastically moved a stool and said, "Qiao Zhiqing, please sit down. The buns will be ready soon."
The educated youth camp also provided meals, but in order to enhance the relationship, Qiao Hongbin chose to stay: "Thank you very much, Auntie."
"You're welcome. You kids have come here from far away and it's quite pitiful that you can't go home for the New Year. Qiao Zhiqing, please eat more later." Qiao Zhiqing's family has some influence, so she has to help her son-in-law entertain well.
Brother Shi and his brothers did not think there was anything wrong with Zhou Pan, the future son-in-law, inviting guests to dinner, and they all greeted Qiao Hongbin enthusiastically.
Su Sanlan was unexpectedly generous. As soon as the buns came out of the pot, she gave Qiao Hongbin two cabbage and pork buns. Naturally, her good son-in-law Zhou Pan also got two. Of course, to avoid embarrassing the guests, the adults in the family also got two meat buns, and the children each got one. Looking at the half-empty steamer, Su Sanlan's face trembled with pain.
Qiao Hongbin didn't hesitate to start eating. This was his first time eating pork buns made by Third Brother Shi. He had to admit that Aunt Su was not exaggerating: "Third Brother Shi is a great cook. Your cooking is even better than the famous state-owned restaurants in Beijing. That's it!" She gave a thumbs up.
Shi Sange's face lit up with praise: "No wonder people always say that Qiao Zhiqing is good at talking."
Qiao Hongbin almost choked. He was really speaking from the heart. "No, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Zhou."
Zhou Pan was very respectful: "Brother Shi, your buns are really delicious. At least they are among the top five buns I have tasted."
His family was not poor in both his previous and next lives, and Zhou Pan was not someone who didn't know how to enjoy life. He had eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. Although the buns made by Third Brother Shi were not the best, they were definitely one of the best. He believed that with the test of time, Third Brother Shi's cooking skills would be further improved.
Brother Shi San was immediately happy when he heard this. After all, in his heart, his brother-in-law was an honest man. If he said yes, he meant yes, and if he said no, he meant no. He was not like Qiao Zhiqing who liked to sweet-talk people.
"I didn't expect I was quite good. I've only been learning for a short time..."
Seeing that the third brother was about to let something slip, Su Sanlan's face turned pale and said, "Why are you so proud? Even the first place winner isn't proud. What the hell are you, the fifth place winner?"
Su Sanlan turned to her son-in-law and said softly, "Zhou Pan, don't praise him too much in the future. Your third brother is someone who can't stand being praised. He gets so proud when he's praised that he almost forgets his last name."
"Mom, I was wrong. I won't do it again."
Brother Shi San was so frightened that he woke up with a start. He almost let the cat out of the bag just now. It was really wrong. It seemed that he had to be more careful with his words and actions in the future.
Shi Liu looked at her third brother speechlessly. No wonder Zhou Pan refused to let her help anyone else. If she wasn't careful, it would be exposed. Qiao Hongbin was a member of the Qiao family. He knew a lot of inside information that the upper echelons would know. Otherwise, he wouldn't have believed that Liu Tiantian had a problem. She was almost killed this time.
Brother Shi San looked at Shi Liu apologetically. Shi Liu pretended to chat with Zhou Pan but didn't look at him. She was really angry this time.
Zhou Pan took advantage of Shi Liu's inattention to give Shi San Ge a warning glance, which scared Shi San Ge so much that he became absent-minded and kept his mouth tightly shut.
Qiao Hongbin naturally noticed something unusual, but since he was an outsider, it was difficult to ask questions. He just pretended to have noticed nothing. However, Third Brother Shi's steamed meat buns were really delicious. He wondered if he could ask him to help make some in the future. In winter, the meat buns could be left outside to freeze. He could steam them and heat them up whenever he wanted.
"Aunt Su, Brother Shi San's buns are so delicious that I won't get tired of eating them every day."
Su Sanlan smiled, but in her heart she thought that this man must be a fool. Who would get tired of eating meat every day?
"Aunt Su, how about this? I'll buy the meat and flour myself, and Third Brother Shi will help make the meat buns. I'll give him some hard work money."
When Su Sanlan heard that there was money to be made, she immediately smiled and said, "Sure, of course. What kind of fillings do you want? Making dumplings with just meat and flour is not enough. Auntie's family also has carrots, cabbage, green radish and so on."
Qiao Hongbin's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Aunt Su, I want ten pork buns for today. No, I want twenty, and more..."
