Shenhao starts from system downtime

Chapter 1117 It's Like Honey

"Eat, eat, everyone, use your chopsticks."

"Let's continue to stare like this, and the dishes will be cold."

Huang Jianhua, the host of today's banquet, when he saw that the dishes on the table were almost ready, he called everyone to start using their chopsticks.

As tonight's banquet host, Huang Jianhua naturally sat in the host's seat, while Lin Qian, as tonight's important guest, sat in the host's seat, and Liu Ning sat in the On Lin Qian's left.

Huang Jianhua greeted everyone to move their chopsticks, then turned his head to Lin Qian and said with a smile, "Xiao Lin, the chef owner of this private restaurant used to be neighbors with our family, it's not that I'm talking to you, in the whole of China, being able to cook in Beijing There are very few people who are better than him in the field."

"Although they are all ordinary ingredients, the taste should not be bad. You and Xiaoliu have a taste and see if it suits your appetite."

After finishing speaking, Huang Jianhua looked at Lin Qian expectantly, waiting for Lin Qian's feedback after tasting, and he was very enthusiastic.

Seeing this, Lin Qian immediately picked up his chopsticks, thinking of picking up a chopstick from the dish closest to him, and then shared some with Liu Ning beside him.

This dish looks like preserved apricots. It should be a meat dish, but it is covered with brown-red sauce. Under the chef's delicate arrangement, it looks very appetizing.

Under the gaze of Huang Jianhua and others, Lin Qian and Liu Ning ate the meat on the plate into their mouths.

"Um……"

With the chewing of his teeth, Lin Qian's eyes brightened a little, and he subconsciously made a sound of admiration.

"How about it?"

"The taste is okay?"

Hearing the voice from Lin Qian's mouth, Huang Jianhua smiled even wider, and asked Lin Qian again.

"The heat of this mutton is just right, the meat is extremely soft, without any feeling of hardwood. As for the taste, it is as sweet as honey, with a slightly sour aftertaste, sweet and not greasy. What is the name of this dish, sweet and sour mutton?" ?”

Lin Qian thought about it for a while, and then made a simple comment on the dish he tasted just now, and his words were full of praise.

"This dish is called it like honey, have you heard of this dish?"

Wang Zhixue interrupted, and he asked Lin Qian with a smile.

"Is it like honey?"

"What a strange name."

"It's the first time I've heard of it when I grow up so old."

When Lin Qian heard this, he replied truthfully with a slightly surprised tone.

"This dish has some allusions. According to legend, this dish was originally a common dish in the court of the Qing Dynasty. One day, just because Empress Dowager Cixi ate it happily, she asked the cook for the name of the dish. Cixi said that it was a new creation of his and hadn't named it yet, so please give it a name from Lafayette. Cixi was very happy, so she said by the way, this dish is as sweet as honey, so let's call it like honey."

"In this way, the name of the dish like honey has been passed down to this day."

Facing Lin Qian's question, Zhou Rongguo pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, and opened his mouth to tell the historical allusion of this dish, which made Lin Qian and Liu Ning amazed.

"Xiao Lin, can I have some white wine?"

While Lin Qian was listening to Zhou Rongguo's story about how the name of the dish "like honey" came about, Huang Jianhua, who was sitting next to Lin Qian, had already brought out two bottles of Dream Blue from the bottom of the table, and after Zhou Rongguo finished speaking, He asked Lin Qian with a smile.

"Uh……"

"I can drink a little."

Lin Qian was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously responded like this.

Liu Ning, who was sitting on Lin Qian's left, heard Lin Qian's response, and she couldn't help showing a little speechless expression on her face.

She was aware of Lin Qian's drinking capacity. If Lin Qian opened his mouth to drink tonight, the two bottles of liquor in Huang Jianhua's hand might not be enough for Lin Qian to drink by himself.

He is obviously a Dionysus, but he pretends to be a cute newcomer.

"You are so bad~"

Thinking of this, Liu Ning stretched out her hand and gently pinched Lin Qian, then leaned into Lin Qian's ear and let out a soft moan.

"What's wrong with me?"

"Shouldn't you be humble in front of the elders?"

"Furthermore, who stipulates how much a little bit is?"

"I just call two catties of liquor a little bit!"

"What's wrong, don't let Ang?"

Facing Liu Ning's coquettish anger, Lin Qian turned his head and whispered to Liu Ning.

However, Lin Qian and Liu Ning's whispers, in Huang Jianhua's view, seemed to be Liu Ning's fear that Lin Qian would drink too much, and worried that Lin Qian would drink too much.

"Xiao Liu, don't worry, we'll just have a drink, and we won't let Xiao Lin drink too much."

Huang Jianhua pointed his head and said to Liu Ning with a smile.

After hearing Huang Jianhua's words, Liu Ning couldn't help feeling a little speechless.

'Am I afraid that Lin Qian would drink too much? '

'It's clear that Lin Qian drank you all under the table! '

'This is not a little sheep, this is a big bad wolf! '

'You guys wake up! '

Liu Ning thought helplessly.

"Old Huang, when you invited us to drink before, you could at most bring us two bottles of Sky Blue. Why are you so generous today, and you actually brought out two bottles of Dream Blue?"

Wang Zhixue looked at the two bottles of liquor in Huang Jianhua's hand, and joked to him with a smile.

"Isn't it because of the banquet Xiao Lin?"

"After all, he is a big boss with a fortune of billions of dollars. It is estimated that the minimum amount of Moutai that he usually drinks must be aged for more than ten years. We are all earning dead wages. Drinking Moutai is definitely not affordable. Dream Blue is within the scope of ability. It's perfect."

Huang Jianhua responded with a smile while unpacking the liquor.

"Old Huang, I'm not that particular. I can drink any kind of wine, even a five-yuan green stick from a roadside food stand. As long as the drinker is right, I can still drink happily, so Huang Lao doesn't have to drink wine." There are too many worries."

As soon as Huang Jianhua finished speaking, Lin Qian continued to say this.

"Row!"

"I can rest assured that!"

"Come on, I'll pour it for you!"

Huang Jianhua laughed loudly, and then he was about to take the initiative to pour wine for Lin Qian, but how could Lin Qian ask Huang Jianhua to pour him wine? He quickly snatched the bottle from Huang Jianhua's hand, and then gave it to Huang Jianhua, Wang Zhixue and the others poured a round, and finally poured the wine for themselves.

He was obviously respected and distinguished, but he was neither arrogant nor arrogant, humble and polite. Lin Qian's behavior made Huang Jianhua and others' favor towards Lin Qian exponentially increase.

"There's a little left."

"Would you like a drink?"

After pouring a round, Lin Qian shook the bottle lightly, then turned his head and asked Liu Ning with a smile.

"Then have a drink."

When Liu Ning heard the words, she immediately picked up the cup in her hand and responded with a smile.

"Can Xiaoliu drink white wine?"

Huang Jianhua said with a little surprise.

Facing Huang Jianhua's question, Liu Ning glanced at Lin Qian with a smile in her eyes, then responded with a chuckle:
"A little bit."
