Views:

As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Since Boss Wang and Boss Liu are not on good terms, and Boss Liu seems to have some inextricable relationship with the Cai family, whether objectively or subjectively, Boss Liu is almost the same as himself. a camp.

Yu Qingze came up with an idea to deal with Boss Wang. This idea needs to be realized by Boss Liu. However, now is not a good time, and there is still a lack of opportunity.

After all, he doesn't even know Boss Liu right now, and the impression that Boss Liu gave him before was very... inexplicable

I don't feel like getting along very well, I have to figure out his behavior before making plans.

The next day, Yu Qingze made a special trip to the painting and calligraphy store to buy a letter of worship, and asked someone to write the letter of worship, ready to visit the Cai Mansion the day after tomorrow. He should have written the pilgrimage by himself, but his calligraphy was really incapable, so it was not easy to be embarrassed.

When Mi Ge'er came to buy jelly, he asked Mi Ge'er to take the pilgrimage back on his behalf.

In the afternoon, Mi Ge'er came again, and brought a message from the old man, saying that the old man invited the Changle family to also be guests.

Yu Qingze was a little surprised, but after consulting the two brothers, he agreed.

The date written on their post is the day after tomorrow. After going back in the evening, Chang Hao excitedly told the news to Grandpa Chang.

Grandpa Chang was stunned for a moment. He has rarely seen the magistrate in his life. Now, is he going to be a guest at the prefect's house

Grandpa Chang was stunned and said: "Then, what gifts are we going to bring?" When you go to the prefect's house, will the gifts you bring are too shabby? But it's too expensive, and they can't afford it.

Ouch, sad people.

Grandpa Chang walked around and circled the main room several times, but he didn't expect to bring anything with him.

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "Grandpa, you don't have to think about it so much, I've already thought about it. The prefects don't lack anything, so we can just bring some things from the mountains and things grown by ourselves. Once I'm in my cooking, I'll just cook two more dishes and teach it to Uncle Fu. The Cai family knows our situation, so just express your heart."

Hearing this, Grandpa Chang stopped and said, "That's okay, it's your hard work."

Yu Qingze said: "No, Grandpa, don't worry, just take it as a visit to the prefect's house."

"Hey, that's fine, I'm getting old, I can visit the prefect's house and open my eyes, hahaha." Grandpa Chang smiled happily, suddenly remembered something again, and walked to the room, "Oh, then I have to Go look for clothes, and Xiaohao's, and see what clothes to wear the day after tomorrow as a guest."

Halfway through, Grandpa Chang stopped again and said, "By the way, Aze, Xiaole's father's clothes are very old, and you have to go buy new clothes tomorrow. You are different from us, so you have to be careful. "

Yu Qingze smiled: "What's different about me is that I'm a cook. But I should also buy two sets of clothes. It's not good to always wear uncle's clothes." After he woke up, he still wore three sets of Chang Le's father's clothes. Never bought it.

Grandpa Chang said: "I didn't mean it that way. Daddy Xiaole's clothes are also put away. The Cai family takes a fancy to you, and we have to pay attention to it. It's not good to lose other people's face."

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "Okay, I see, we'll go tomorrow."

Grandpa Chang said again: "It's enough to buy one for the day after tomorrow. Clothes are expensive on the street. I ripped the other cloths and asked Xiaole to make two spares for you. Xiaole's craftsmanship is still very good."

Yu Qingze's heart moved, the clothes that Brother Le made by himself? want to wear. However, "That's too hard, Brother Le."

Chang Le waved his hand on the side, indicating that it would not be in the way.

The next day they didn't open a stall and went to the clothing store together in the morning to buy clothes.

Yu Qingze chose a suit, and then chose a suit for the two brothers Chang Le and Grandpa Chang, but was stopped by Chang Le, saying that they were wearing clothes when they had special guests.

In the end, Yu Qingze bought a set for Chang Hao. Looking at the clothes they found yesterday, Chang Hao's clothes were obviously short.

In the end, he pulled cloth for all four of them and went back to make clothes.

After buying the clothes, Yu Qingze went to buy some materials, and was going to make some snacks to take with him tomorrow.

The next day before dawn, Yu Qingze and Chang Le got up and started making snacks.

Siu Mai, Pumpkin Red Bean Cake, Red Date Cake.

Chang Hao was still asleep when he was abruptly woken up by a burst of scent.

He half-squinted his eyes and smelled the smell when he went to the kitchen and saw that Yu Qingze was frying something, while another pot was steaming and steaming something.

His sleepy worm ran away at once, looking eagerly at the golden 'Baba' in the pot.

"It smells so good!" Chang Hao sucked his nose and asked, "Big Brother Yu, what is this?"

"Pumpkin red bean cake. You can eat breakfast later. You go to wash up and do the morning class." Yu Qingze replied.

"Oh..." I smelled such a delicious pumpkin and red bean cake, but I couldn't eat it. I had to go to the morning class after all the greedy bugs were hooked out. How can I go on doing this...

Chang Hao was still standing still.

It's so fragrant that my feet don't obey and don't want to move.

Yu Qingze showed no mercy and said, "Go quickly, you can't eat until you finish it."

Can't eat if you don't finish it? ! This is killing!

"Let's go now!" Chang Hao, the snack foodie, turned his head out of the kitchen step by step, and headed to the yard.

Brother Yu is so cruel!

I don't understand the mood of a foodie at all!

Chang Hao sniffed hard while stomping on his horse, almost wanting to inhale all the fragrance into his stomach. After struggling for half an hour, he immediately washed his hands and feet quickly, and then rushed to the kitchen.

I just don't want to wait a moment!

After Yu Qingze prepared the dim sum and reserved the dim sum that he brought to Cai's house, several people had a fragrant breakfast.

Chang Hao has a shaomai in his left hand and a pumpkin red bean cake in his right. His mouth is bulging, and his eyes are still looking at the red date cake!

Ouch, too few hands and too small mouth to eat!

The other three all looked at him and laughed. This little glutton!

After breakfast, Yu Qingze and Chang Le first went to take a shower, changed their clothes, and set off with some mountain goods and eels caught by Grandpa Chang in the ditch, as well as three boxes of snacks.

Cai Mansion is in the south of the city, a very large house.

When they arrived, Miguel was already waiting for them at the door.

Mi Ge'er introduced the Cai Mansion to them as he walked. In fact, the Cai Mansion is not grand, but every courtyard in it is elegantly furnished, and at first glance it looks like a very literate family.

Mr. Cai and his husband greeted them in the main hall, and beside him was a thin and frail-looking boy in white.

Seeing them, Mr. Cai said enthusiastically, "Oh, Boss Yu, I've been waiting for you."

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "I have seen Mrs. Cai, Mr. Cai, and Mr. Cai."

Chang Le and the others followed suit.

Mr. Cai waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite, don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home."

Yu Qingze said: "Then don't call me Boss Yu, call me Xiao Yu."

"Okay, okay, just call Xiaoyu." Mr. Cai finished happily, then turned to look at Chang Le's family, and said, "This is Brother Chang, and your family is welcome."

Grandpa Chang was a little nervous at first. Seeing that Mrs. Cai was so easygoing, he relaxed a little and said with a smile, "I'm bothering you."

"Don't bother, we haven't been so lively in a long time."

Over there, Old Man Cai also pulled Chang Le and Chang Hao, and said with a smile, "This is Chang Le and Chang Hao, look at how handsome these two children are. Come on, this is the greeting gift from the youngest to you." , Mr. Cai took out a silver hairpin and a silver bracelet from his arms and stuffed it with the two brothers.

Both of them were a little dumbfounded, not knowing how to react.

When Grandpa Chang saw it, he was also a little confused, and said hurriedly: "Cai Laofu, this is too precious to accept."

Mr. Cai didn't put his hand away and said, "Brother, what are you blocking me? It's not for you. I saw that the two children liked it in my heart. It's okay to play a little gadget for them."

Grandpa Chang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The two brothers were a little overwhelmed and looked at Grandpa. Grandpa said he would accept them, and grandpa said he would not accept them if he did not accept them.

Yu Qingze watched this scene from the side and smiled: "Grandpa, if you have any thoughts, please accept it."

This old man Cai probably listened to Mi Ge'er talking about their affairs, and the means to win over people are very good. He is not good at giving his own things, so he starts with the people around him, which also hits his weakness.

When Grandpa Chang heard the words, he nodded. Only then did Chang Le and Chang Hao accept Cai Laofu's gift.

Chang Le made a gesture, Chang Hao's mouth was sweet, and he thanked him: "Thank you, youngest, my brother also said thank you, he likes this hairpin very much."

When Old Man Cai heard this, he smiled and said, "Just like it if you like it. Oh, Xiaohao, this kid has a sweet mouth!"

Several people laughed.

After laughing, Grandpa Cai pulled the young man behind him and said, "Xiaoyu, Brother Chang, this is my little grandson, Cai Yunwei. Wei'er, this is your elder brother Yu, the food you like is all taught by him. For Faber."

Cai Yunwei took a step forward and bowed his hands politely: "I've seen Big Brother Yu, Grandpa Chang, Big Brother Chang, Younger Chang."

Several people bowed slightly in return.

Yu Qingze looked at Cai Yunwei, and then asked: "Second Young Master, has your appetite been good recently? If you want to eat later, tell me, and I will do it."

Cai Yunwei smiled slightly and said, "Brother Yu's cooking is delicious."

This isn't flattery, it's the truth. When he grew up, he felt that the things Yu Qingze made and the food he taught Uncle Fu would make him like it.

Yu Qingze smiled, but he was not humble. Seeing that it was getting late, he told Mrs. Cai to go to the kitchen and take a look. At noon, he would cook and cook a delicious meal for everyone.

Grandpa Cai asked Fu Bo to take him there, and Chang Le followed him to fight.

In the main hall, Mr. Cai and his husband accompany Grandpa Chang to drink tea and chat. They ate the snacks that Yu Qingze and the others brought, and they all greatly appreciated it.

Chang Hao sat for a while and ate a red jujube cake. Seeing that the second young master of the Cai family had eaten a pumpkin red bean cake and stopped eating, he ran over and asked, "Little brother, why don't you eat it? Isn't it delicious? "

Cai Yunwei looked at the black boy in front of him, his eyes were dark, he was very bright, and he was very envious. He shook his head and said, "It's delicious, but I can't eat it anymore, I have a small appetite."

"Oh..." Chang Hao also knew that he didn't eat much, so he changed the subject, took out a straw grasshopper and a straw dragonfly from his pocket and handed them to him, saying, "This is for you to play with."

This is when eldest brother Yu and his brother took a bath and changed their clothes after breakfast. He went to find palm leaves to weave, thinking that he would give it to the second young master of the Cai family.

Cai Yunwei has never been out of the house since he was a child. He has seen dragonflies, but he has never seen this grasshopper, so he asked, "What is this?"

"This is a grasshopper, this is a dragonfly, haven't you seen it?" Chang Hao pointed to him and said.

Cai Yunwei shook his head and said, "I've never seen this grasshopper. Did you make this up? It's so beautiful." This is not a lie. Although Cai Yunwei has never seen a grasshopper, the dragonfly is very vivid and very similar.

Chang Hao raised his chest and said, "Well, I made it all up."

"How did you make this up?"

"Do you want to learn? I can teach you."

"Okay." Anyway, I'm bored at home every day.

"Do you have palm leaves here?"

"I'll have someone look for it."

"… "

Grandpa Cai watched the two young boys talk vigorously, sighed, and said, "Wei'er hasn't been so interested in a thing for a long time."

Grandpa Chang comforted him and said, "In the future, when he is healthy and full of energy, you don't want him to listen to you at home. A young man of this age is very well-dressed."

When Mrs. Cai heard this, he laughed and said, "I'm waiting for that day."

In the kitchen, because he knew that Yu Qingze was visiting today, Uncle Fu went to communicate with Yu Qingze in advance that afternoon.

Yu Qingze asked Mr. Cai's husband and husband and the second young master of the Cai family's tastes, and made a list of the materials to be bought to Uncle Fu. So Faber prepared all the materials he needed.

Because there are so many dishes to prepare, this time, not only Chang Le, but Fu Bo and a few other people in the kitchen also helped Yu Qingze.

However, when they started, they were only washing vegetables and cutting vegetables. Other than the work they were used to, they couldn't keep up with his rhythm.

However, they all looked at Yu Qingze's actions seriously, and Fu Bo was especially serious. The dish is not ready yet, just smelling the aroma is enough to make people salivate.

When they saw the dishes prepared one after another, they couldn't help swallowing.

Fortunately, Yu Qingze deliberately cooked more of each dish and left some for his colleagues who helped him.

The 'peers' were all in tears.

Boss Yu is a really nice guy.

After an hour of busy work, it was finally done, just in time for lunch.

Uncle Fu brought all the dishes to the table, filling the table.

Steamed pork ribs with glutinous rice, cold fungus, spicy shredded chicken, braised eel, fish-flavored eggplant, sweet and sour pork loin, fried lotus root slices, fried vegetables, seafood porridge, kelp bone soup.

When Mr. Cai's husband and husband and the second young master of the Cai family came to the table, their eyes lit up when they saw the dishes that they had never seen before.

Smells so good!

It looks delicious too, very appetizing!

Several people were seated and ready to eat.

At this moment, a hearty voice came from outside the dining room.

"It's so fragrant! What did Uncle Fu do?!"
