The appearance of Uncle Cao Guo and his son instantly attracted the attention of the Han family and his son.
????Han Yonghe didn't have a good look on someone who wanted to steal his son-in-law. He put down the tea cup in his hand and snorted, "I thought who was here. It turned out to be Cao Guojiu.
."
????Ever since he knew that Cao Yi also wanted to marry his daughter to Lu Yao, Han Yonghe's favorable impression of Cao Yi plummeted.
????When he goes to court on weekdays, he will not look at Cao Yi if he can. After the court, he will leave in a hurry and will never give Cao Yi any chance to talk to him.
????Fortunately, Lu Yao was focused on Han Yunyu, so he didn't let Cao Yi succeed.
????Han Yonghe didn't quite agree with the cooperation between Lu Yao and Cao Yi, but when he thought that the money Lu Yao would earn in the future would also belong to his daughter, he suppressed this feeling in his heart.
????But this time we had to meet him face to face, so he had to make some sarcastic remarks about Cao Yi.
????Cao Yi originally wanted to see who had the guts to speak to him like this. When he saw that the person speaking was Han Yonghe, Cao Yi's expression eased slightly. After all, he still felt a little embarrassed in his heart.
of.
????Cao Yi raised his hands to Han Yonghe with a smile on his face and said, "It turns out to be Brother Han! I haven't had a heart-to-heart talk with Brother Han for many days. I wonder how Brother Han is doing these days."
????Han Yonghe took a sip of tea and said, "Very good. If Uncle Cao Guo doesn't come today, he will probably feel better."
????Cao Ping is always impatient, and he had a vague sense of volcanic eruption before.
????When he came, Cao Ji specifically told him not to make trouble, and he finally swallowed his anger.
????Unexpectedly, Han Yonghe went so far that even his own father smiled, and he still dared to speak like this. Wasn't it because Cao Ping's fists as big as sandbags were not powerful?
????Cao Ping immediately pointed at Han Yonghe with a stick-thick finger and cursed: "How can you, an old man Han, talk? Are you looking down on our Cao family? You are still a high-ranking official in the court and you read the books of sages.
You don’t even know the etiquette in Confucian etiquette, righteousness, benevolence and wisdom. You may have read this book into the dog’s belly. Since you don’t want this etiquette, then use your fists to solve the problem.”
????Seeing Cao Ping clenching his fists, Han Yonghe was not afraid and said with a smile: "Second son of the Cao family, do you still want to beat me up? I know the scandalous things done by my family and don't allow others to talk about it.
No matter what happens, even if His Majesty is here, he will not protect your Cao family. Your Cao family is not worthy of treating you with courtesy."
????"Old man, if you dare to insult the Cao family again, I will beat you to pieces even if you give up my body." Cao Ping was very angry, because he wanted to marry his younger sister to Lu Yao.
Well, your family has canceled the engagement before, and you still don't allow others to covet you. It's really unreasonable.
????Han Wenyuan dropped the tea cup in his hand on the table with a loud noise, stood up and looked at Cao Ping angrily, "Cao Ping, please keep your mouth cleaner. Even though I am a scholar, I will still fight for my life."
It can make you splatter with blood for five steps."
????"Young man..." Cao Ping was about to scold him again, but Cao Yan kicked him in the calf.
????If Cao Ping hadn't been practicing martial arts all day long, this kick would have knocked him down.
"Say a few words, don't forget what we are here for today. If we delay His Majesty's business, I will tie you to a tree and whip you when I get back." Cao Yan scolded.
????Hearing the words 'tied to a tree', Cao Ping felt the pain on his skin and immediately closed his mouth.
????"Father, why should I tell Pingdi to shut up? Pingdi didn't say anything wrong, but Han Shangshu went too far in bullying." A man who looked to be in his twenties and whose appearance was seventy-nine similar to Cao Yi said.
Young people walked into the main courtyard of the Lu family.
????Han Yonghe continued to snort coldly: "Cao You, you are not in Bianliang these days. You don't know what good things your father and brother have done."
????The person who came was none other than Cao Yi, Cao Yi's legitimate son. He was sent out to serve as an official the year before last. I don't know how he returned to Bianliang today.
????Cao You shook his head and said: "Although I am in another place, I often send letters to and from Bianjing. I don't know everything about what happened in Bianjing, but I know everything I need to know. I don't think my father and brother
What have you done to make people jealous? Love between men and women is human nature. Since Han Shangshu has benefited from it, why should he pursue it so closely?"
????"The fisherman gets a profit? Humph, Lu Yao is my son-in-law. Why does the fisherman get a profit? I have always heard that Cao You loves Yaomei the most, and it is indeed a well-deserved reputation. Today, for the sake of your contribution to the country, Cao You,
I’ll give your Cao family some face." Han Yonghe said.
????Seeing that Han Yonghe was no longer in trouble, Cao Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
????Cao You bowed respectfully to Cao Yi and shouted: "Father."
????Cao Ping rubbed his calf and asked: "Why did the eldest brother suddenly return to Bianliang?"
????"If I don't return to Bianliang, my little sister will be bullied so much that she won't dare to leave the house." Cao You glared at Cao Ping and said.
????"Aren't you trying to save face?" Cao Ping felt a little ashamed.
????Before Cao Yu left Bianliang, he entrusted the role of taking care of Cao Han to his second brother. Obviously, his second brother did not do a good job.
????When Cao Yi saw Cao Yu coming back, he was naturally in a great mood, but when he saw his two sons bickering over his sister, he was a little angry.
????The smile on his face also disappeared, and he cursed in a low voice: "Speak carefully."
????Cao You smoothed the wrinkles at the corners of his clothes, saluted Cao Yi and said, "My son has received the official's order, so he returned to Bianliang. There is no time for the order to be returned. Maybe he can return here
Stay in Bianliang for a few more days."
????Cao Yi nodded, Zhao Zhen probably recalled Cao Yi for the Cuju competition.
????Unexpectedly, Lu Yao was already in the emperor's heart at this time.
????Cao Yi asked: "How did you know we were in Lu Mansion?"
????"I went back to the Cao Mansion before and found that your father was not at home, so my little sister told me that you and Brother Ping came to the Lu family to discuss matters." Cao Yu replied.
????Cao Ji asked again: "Han'er didn't beg you to take her with you?"
????Cao You looked a little embarrassed and said: "I said it, but I thought that a group of men would discuss matters. My little sister is a girl, so it is not suitable."
????Cao Yi patted Cao You on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You did a good job in this matter."
????Cao Yi and his two sons had just walked into the banquet hall when they heard Lu Yao's unique voice: "Since everyone is here, hurry up and serve the food. It won't taste good when the food is cold."
"
????Lu Yao ran from the kitchen with a bowl of piping hot borscht, his hands constantly changing.
????It takes a lot of effort to make this borscht soup. If there are no carrots, use green radish instead.
????There was no onion, so Lu Yao used minced garlic.
????He took a bite himself and found that the taste was not much different from the borscht of later generations. In short, he was very satisfied with this soup.
????As soon as Lu Yao put the borscht on the table, he saw someone staring at him.
????This is for new faces!
????You can tell by looking at his appearance that he is a member of the Cao family.
????Lu Yao greeted with a smile: "There are new guests here! Take a seat quickly, the dishes are on the way, they will be served soon, I guarantee you a full meal."
????"Are you Lu Yao?" Cao You asked, staring at Lu Yao. He wanted to see what kind of man he was, who could charm his beloved little sister.
????Lu Yao nodded and said: "Yes, that is Lu Yao. If you have anything else to do, wait until after eating."
????Cao You was about to say something, but his attention was attracted by the dazzling array of dishes behind Lu Yao.
????Cao Yi, Han Yonghe and others were not surprised. The cook was originally hired by Fan Lou, and Pan Yuanwu ate every day.
????But Pan Yuanwu was interested in two of the ingredients, namely the borscht soup made by Lu Yao and the tomato, potato and beef brisket.
????He had never seen either of the two ingredients here, and Lu Yao didn't teach Fan Lou either.
????Could it be that Lu Yao has something to hide?
????Then you have to get them all.
????"Are these stir-fried vegetables?" Cao You's eyes followed these dishes.
????Cao Ping pushed Cao You into the seat and said with a smile: "Brother, I must have never eaten stir-fry in the past two years when he was not in Bianliang. This stir-fry is exactly what Lu Erlang made, his Lu family's
Stir-fried vegetables can be said to be a specialty in Bianliang, brother, you have to try it."
????"What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and sit down." Pan Yuanwu couldn't help but want to taste these two new dishes. If these two dishes taste good, then his Fan Lou business will
More hot.
????Everyone, sit down in your seats.
????Lu Yao ordered everyone to take a spoon and give each person a bowl of borscht soup.
????The fragrance right in front of him made Pan Yuanwu couldn't help but twitch his nose twice.
????He didn’t care whether the soup was hot or not and just took a sip.
????This sour aroma really makes people spleen and stomach salivate, and the hint of sweetness after the salivation enhances the taste of this dish.
????And this yellow solid is so soft and delicious that it almost melts in your mouth.
????Resisting the burning of his mouth, Pan Yuanwu swallowed the soup.
????Exclaimed, "This soup tastes great. I have never tasted it before. Lu Erlang doesn't know the names of the two new ingredients in this soup, and where can I buy it?"
????Lu Yao made a pass and said, "Uncle Pan, don't be anxious. These two things are extremely precious. In the autumn, uncle will know what they are."
"You are really ignorant." Pan Yuanwu scolded Lu Yao and drank the borscht in the bowl in one gulp.
????Then he handed the empty bowl in the air and said: "He ate too fast just now and didn't taste the taste. Give me another bowl."
????Lu Yao was very disdainful. He wanted to eat an extra bowl, so he said so. Moreover, he only prepared a bowl for one person. Is there more?
????"Gone."
????"What's missing?" Pan Yuanwu asked.
????Lu Yao pointed to the empty soup bowl without any soup.
????"You kid, why don't you feed someone when someone comes to your house for dinner?" Pan Yuanwu scolded.
????Lu Yao's eyes twitched. He didn't see that there were many dishes on the table. What do you mean by not giving you enough food? You can't eat anything else without this?
????"If Uncle Pan wants it, he can still get half a bowl by scraping the bottom of the soup bowl a few times."
????"Then why don't you hurry up and bring it to a certain Sheng."
????Lu Yao personally scraped all the remaining soup from the soup bowl to Pan Yuanwu. The soup bowl was even cleaner than after washing.
????After Pan Yuanwu got the remaining half bowl of soup, he no longer took a big sip, but tasted it in small sips.
????When the others saw Pan Yuanwu's appearance, they drank all the borscht in their bowls, for fear that Pan Yuanwu would come and snatch it away.
????Lu Yao introduced tomatoes, potatoes and beef brisket to Pan Yuanwu, "Uncle Pan, the two ingredients you want to eat are also included in this dish."
