Chapter 174 Are you the girl Zhao who made that spicy rabbit head?
Every time Ji Mingxuan appears, he attracts a lot of attention, firstly because of his prominent status, secondly because of his notoriety, and thirdly because his face is very popular among girls.
Zhao Huanyu even joked with him before going out in the morning. She didn't need to go out to find him at the banquet. She would know where he was just by looking where there were many people.
Well, especially in places where there are many girls.
Except for Qi Jiaxin, some of the other ladies who came to the banquet were also stunned. They have never seen such a good-looking man in their entire lives.
Not only is he good-looking, but he also looks polite and elegant. He is a scholar at first glance.
Everyone looked at each other, when did such a person come to Zhengfeng County?
Just as he was wondering, Qi Yuan came out in person.
Today was his daughter's birthday. He could have worn ordinary clothes, but knowing that Ji Mingxuan was getting older, he still wore official uniform to greet her seriously to show his respect for Ji Mingxuan.
"I've seen you, sir. Sir, please come and take a seat."
After several days of mental preparation, Qi Yuan was not as afraid of Ji Mingxuan as before. What's more, he was the county magistrate. He couldn't be too timid in front of so many people, otherwise these people would definitely look down on him, and they won't in the future.
Easy to discipline.
I just hope that this man will not cause any trouble for him, and just have a simple meal and leave in peace, and he will be happy.
Ji Mingxuan was in a good mood and had no deep grudge against Qi Yuan. Naturally, he would not cause trouble for him and said, "Get up. I'm just here to attend a birthday party. There's no need to make people panic."
Ji Mingxuan said and looked around the yard. His little girl was still busy in the kitchen and could not come out.
He followed Qi Yuan and sat on the main seat, and everyone hurried to greet him.
Duan Kuo was one of them, and he was feeling a little panicked at the moment. He didn't know why this person came here. Could it be that he was dissatisfied with him for encouraging Qi Yuan to raise funds?
But she hasn't had time to tell anyone else about it yet. Judging from the current situation, only he and Qi Yuan know about it. Could it be that Qi Yuan said it himself?
No, Qi Yuan is not that stupid!
He was worried that his small idea might affect his uncle's future, and his sin would be huge.
But no matter what happened, he still had to pretend to be calm and pretend not to know anything.
There was a distinguished guest coming, and Qi Yuan had just knelt down to greet him. He should introduce Ji Mingxuan's identity to everyone. Just as he was about to speak, Qi Jiaxin hurried over and said, "Dad, Mr. Ji is here to attend my daughter's birthday party. Then
Should my daughter make the introduction?"
Qi Yuan wanted to die, so why did his daughter want to get close to a man who he avoided like a snake and a scorpion?
"What are you talking about? Do you have a role to speak here?"
Qi Yuan had a cold face, winked at Caiyun, and asked her to take him away.
Just as Caiyun was about to come up to pull her away, Qi Jiaxin knelt down at Ji Mingxuan's feet full of love and said, "Sir, my little girl Qi Jiaxin, today is my little girl's birthday party. Please allow me to give you the explanation."
Ji Mingxuan looked at Qi Jiaxin condescendingly, not understanding what was so valuable.
Qi Yuan is indeed an upright official, and he has indeed done some practical things over the years, but this daughter is really not well disciplined. How can she be allowed to talk too much in such a serious occasion?
Qi Yuan also knelt on the ground. Seeing this, others knelt down one after another.
Duan Kuo felt a little speechless. When did Qi Jiaxin become so stupid?
Doesn't she know that Ji Mingxuan has not been close to women for so many years? Why does she think that she is so beautiful that Ji Mingxuan can like her?
If this really pissed off the Living King of Hell, she wouldn't be the only one to suffer.
Duan Kuo rolled his eyes. He was angry but it was not his turn to vent his anger. He could only wait and see what Ji Mingxuan wanted to do.
Ji Mingxuan looked at Qi Yuan and asked, "Is this how you discipline your daughter?"
"My lord, please calm down. I am not strict with my daughter and I have offended my lord. I will let her go now!"
Qi Yuan was still reluctant to take action against his daughter, so he only let Caiyun take her away.
Before Qi Jiaxin realized what was going on, she felt Caiyun pulling her away, and she subconsciously avoided it and said: "My little girl knew that the adults were coming to attend my little girl's birthday party, so she specially prepared a solo dance and invited the adults to do it."
…”
"Shut up!"
Qi Yuan covered her mouth tightly. If he hadn't thought that today was her birthday, he would have wanted to slap her.
If you dare to say anything about dancing solo after things like this, you are risking your life?
"Take the young lady down quickly. If you don't obey, I'll knock her out!"
He ordered angrily, and then kept kowtowing to plead guilty. He still showed his most depressed side in front of everyone, and still thanked his daughter for his blessing.
"Your Majesty, please atone for your sins. I will be a low-ranking official. I will discipline you well. Please, Your Excellency..."
"Okay, if you want to discipline your daughter, you can do it in private. There is no need to make a fuss in front of so many people. I heard that the cook you found is very good. I came here to have a taste and asked the cook, Miss Zhao, to come out and let me
Let’s get to know each other.”
Ji Mingxuan spoke softly, and everyone including Qi Yuan and Duan Kuo were stunned.
This gentleman actually came for Zhao Huanyu?
Seeing that Qi Yuan didn't move, Ji Mingxuan asked, "Why, Mr. Qi doesn't want to?"
"No, I don't dare, I will go and invite Miss Zhao!"
He got up and went out in a hurry. He didn't ask his servants to go, but went to invite him himself.
Zhao Huanyu happened to be almost busy. She took off her apron and even Qi Yuan came over sweating profusely: "Miss Zhao, hurry up, follow me to the main hall!"
"A big shot has come to the capital. I heard that you cook delicious food. I want to get to know you. If the master asks you something later, just answer carefully. Don't offend the master."
Qi Yuan was quite thoughtful and made it clear in advance so that Zhao Huanyu would not be confused.
As for the big shot Qi Yuan spoke of, Zhao Huanyu knew who he was without even thinking about it. Didn't they all agree to pretend not to know each other? What was he making a fuss about?
Soon after arriving at the banquet hall in the courtyard, Zhao Huanyu looked at the people kneeling on the ground and still didn't know what Ji Mingxuan was doing.
However, she was still ready to kneel down and salute in a decent manner, but was stopped by Ji Mingxuan.
"Are you Miss Zhao who made that spicy rabbit head?"
Zhao Huanyu glanced at him, "Good guy, he's pretending to be the same."
"It's my little girl."
Ji Mingxuan looked at her seriously. Seeing the little girl trying her best to pretend to be scared, he couldn't help but find it funny and said, "Is it ready today?"
"Back to your lord, it has just come out of the pot. If you want to eat, you can serve it now."
Ji Mingxuan nodded with satisfaction. Qi Yuan saw it and hurriedly ordered the servants at home: "Hurry up and serve the food!"
"The Japanese assistant noticed you during the cooking competition. You made a price, and I bought your spicy rabbit head recipe."
Qi Yuan was stunned again. It turned out that he suddenly said that he wanted to stay for the birthday banquet because of Miss Zhao’s cooking skills!
Thanks to his daughter's stupidity and naivety, he would be so angry that he would get sick!
However, Ji Mingxuan actually had to spend money to buy a recipe for a dish?
