Chapter 1743 Recognize yourself
Roast for dinner.

For a shy person like a plumber, if the hospitality is too good, it will add some unnecessary psychological burden to him.

A roast would be good, good meat, without looking like you were snubbing him or something, but still making him feel his passion.

The barbecue is the little maid, who has been helping here.

Because the children of the little maid and the plumber are still very young, although they have been sent to the nursery, they sometimes face some unexpected problems.

Whenever there was a problem, the little maid had to leave, and Lynch needed someone to take care of her, so the little maid also stayed.

Seeing the little maid, the plumber blamed himself even more.

Even the "cousin" is here, it seems that he is indeed too sensitive!

If his wife really had some ambiguous and terrifying exchanges of bodily fluids with Lynch, she would definitely not be able to hide it from her little cousin.

The little cousin is a very honest child, he knows this very well, she will definitely tell himself when something like that happened.

The ladies were preparing dinner, including Penny, who ran to help, while the men sat at the table and chatted.

Before dinner, chatting for a while is obviously a favorite thing for men.

Lynch gave the plumber a cigarette, and the plumber took two puffs, looking a bit uncomfortable.

"You don't smoke?" Lynch was a little curious. There are actually very few people who don't smoke these days!
So far, no one has found any direct relationship between smoking and some diseases, and the medical group has not researched here.

In the past, there were a huge number of smokers all over the world, and no one has ever heard of anyone who died of smoking because of smoking!
So even in a place with advanced science and technology like the Commonwealth, people are still unaware of the dangers of cigarettes!
Cigarette advertisements are everywhere on TV, newspapers, magazines, including roadside billboards.

It has actually become a fashion, a fashionable thing.

Ladies are smoking, men are smoking, old people are smoking, even high school kids are smoking!
Because people have not discovered its impact on the human body, even Congress can't do anything. Of course, this may also have something to do with the interference of tobacco interest groups.

It is impossible that there is no medical group who is not interested in the lungs of those who smoke all the year round. As long as they are interested, they will find a way to get some corpses for autopsy.

Once dissected, nothing can hide!
But they didn't say anything, and there must be something else going on.

The same is true for alcohol. The medical group has only issued a warning that "long-term heavy drinking will bring health risks", so people did not pay special attention to whether teenagers drink alcoholic beverages in the past.

Congress "proposes" local legislation, but most do not have legislation restricting youth alcohol consumption.

Constraints mean a decline in sales, which means a reduction in fiscal revenue!
In this day and age, don’t be surprised if you see teenagers with cigarettes in one hand and grape juice in the other. This is the truest and most fashionable portrayal of this era!
In an age when almost most people try smoking, it is rare for a manual worker not to smoke.

Lynch smiled and pushed the ashtray towards the plumber, "You can put it out, I thought you were used to smoking."

The plumber waved his hands again and again, "No, I'm fine, Mr. Lynch."

"Although I'm not used to smoking, it's not that I don't know how to smoke, it's just that I don't smoke often!"

As he spoke, he took a puff of the big one, and the flame of the cigarette butt became brighter, "Look...it's not difficult at all!"

While talking, he couldn't help turning his head and coughing a few times, and then he was a little embarrassed, "Sorry..."

Lynch asked the little maid to bring a glass of water and gave it to the plumber, "It's okay, drinking some water will make you feel better, I know how you feel now!"

For people who are not used to smoking, the severe cough caused by the roar is very uncomfortable, and the throat will be hoarse.

It's like something is covering the throat, and I can't speak, or it's very hoarse.

The plumber took a few sips from his cup, and then Lynch chatted with him about some things within his scope of work.

For example, the material of the water pipe, the installation of the pipeline, and some administrative and personnel issues in the work.

Lynch is a person who is very good at making friends with people. He has engaged in many, many jobs before, and he is willing to discover different things and gain knowledge from his life and work.

He had some knowledge of a plumber's job which surprised the plumber a bit too!

He thought it was impossible for Lynch to know what his job was like, and he was wrong!
This also made him have a natural affection for Lynch!

Anyone who can understand you, who is familiar enough with your life and work, and who can think of going with you, it is hard for you to refuse to like each other!

People always need someone who can understand themselves!
At this time, the plumber completely forgot about his quarrel with the little maid, and just chatted with Lynch about things at work and social changes.

Dinner was ready quickly, there was no such thing as a course-by-course process, and all the roasts were packed on a large plate and placed on the table.

It's a sun room with glass windows and heaters that make it look like they're outside but it's not cold at all!

Looking up is the bright starry sky, looking down is delicious food and wine, a perfect evening!

"You don't need to be polite, she has taken care of me for a long time, I've always wanted to invite you over, but you know, I'm very busy, and I couldn't find some time until recently."

"I thank your wife, she has solved a lot of troubles for me."

"Two days ago, I heard that you may have quarreled because of..." Lynch pursed his lips, "...some reasons that may have something to do with me, I think it's completely unnecessary."

"I respect everyone, whether it's her or you, so I figured we should talk things out."

"At least in this way we won't have more unpleasant things happen because of some misunderstanding!"

The plumber was already very remorseful and regretful at this time, he felt that he was too stupid!
Maybe his wife is very beautiful in his eyes, but compared with Penny, she is indeed a few grades behind!
How could Mr. Lynch be interested in his wife?

He was a little moved, and what was moved was the idea that Mr. Lynch could take care of such a small person as him.

The other party helped him a lot, allowing them to settle in a big city, with a car and a house, and let them have children.

He didn't trust Mr. Lynch and his wife so much, he was really damned!

He picked up the wine glass on the table and expressed his remorse, "I'm too stupid, I shouldn't listen to those people's malicious slander, I want to apologize to you for my stupid behavior, Mr. Lynch!"

Lynch smiled, "People will always make mistakes, as long as we only make mistakes and correct them, what it leaves us will no longer be pain!"

What a philosophical statement!
The plumber took a gulp from the glass, wine, white wine, it looked like it was ten degrees Celsius.

It is slightly burnt brown, and it is a new product sent to him by the butler of Lynch's wine estate abroad.

It looks like the whites are new this year, but they've actually been in rubber casks for a while.

And they also use the latest brewing technology. During the cellaring process, the winemakers added some charred dracaena to the oak barrels.

Because of the charred surface, the bright red color of the dracaena itself does not seep into the white wine.

Just added some nicer flavors to it, and some hints of amber gold.

It's not golden like some white wines, or a little lighter in color, it's somewhere between gold and amber, not dark, very light, and good tasting.

The impact of Prohibition on the middle and lower classes of society was terrible, but it had almost no impact on the upper class of the Federation!

Any bigwig in the upper class can legally import various alcoholic beverages from overseas for their own consumption.

Of course, it is unlikely that they will sell it, which is too cheap!
A white wine with more than ten degrees does not seem to have much feeling when drinking, but the alcohol is working!

The thing that was irritating your plumber is finally done, and he's calmed down at the table.

He said this to the maid and their cousin, and the plumber was amazed at the deliciousness of the roast tonight, he had never eaten such a delicious roast!
You must know that barbecue is a favorite food of all classes in the Federation from bottom to top, and the plumber thinks he has an absolute say in this aspect!
The meat is very tender, but it's not the kind of tenderness that is intentionally undercooked to make the meat tender, and blood oozes out!
It was baked, and he could tell, so he was very curious, how it was done.

Maybe better beef?

Sometimes honest people have their own little thoughts. He lowered his head and said to his wife, "Your cooking is getting better and better. The barbecue is very delicious!"

As he spoke, he pressed the cut meal bag on the plate and scraped it.

The gravy and some oil were absorbed by the cut meal bag, and then he stuffed it into his mouth, looking like he was enjoying it!
The little maid rolled her eyes and also lowered her voice, "This is not beef, this is venison."

The plumber froze for a moment, venison?

He looked at the pieces of barbecue piled up in the dining bowl, and suddenly became a little... He didn't know what to say.

He is also a man who has eaten ten yuan a pound of beef, but at this moment, he feels inexplicably small.

The little maid didn't seem to notice that the plumber was caught in a kind of thinking about life, and she continued to talk about the venison.

"And don't you think that it is similar to the venison outside. Didn't you find that when you eat it, you can't taste the strange smell?"
