I'm the Villain's Mother in Time Time

Chapter 258 Apprentice Banquet ([-])
How good is Sheng'er, who was hidden in the past and was told by her to be reserved in everything?

It was so natural for him to discuss poems and songs with them, and discuss anecdotes from ancient times to the present.

She suddenly felt that she didn't seem to know him very well.

This son in name!

**
After the banquet started, the guests on the stage began to toast before the dishes were ready.

Lin Chuqian sat quietly in the corner and kept a low key, but Aunt Liu led He Mingqiu around with a smile on her face, and even moved closer to Zhou Yurong a few times.

Zhou Yurong took her to introduce some people out of affection.

The main character and the guests enjoyed this grand master apprentice banquet, only Lin Chuqian seemed to be an outsider who strayed into the picture, silently, scrutinizing every face in front of him without showing any trace.

After the entertainment, the dishes were slowly served, and Zhou Yurong intentionally took care of her, so he pulled Lin Chuqian to sit beside her, greeted all the female relatives with smiles, and introduced her identity one by one.

The introduction that avoids the important and ignores the trivial is: the mother of He Changsheng, the disciple who worshiped Master Qi today, and Aunt Bai of the He Mansion.

There were a lot of noble female family members on the table. Seeing Zhou Yurong praising her aunt from a small family like this, although she felt disdainful to be with her, she still greeted her with a smiling face out of face.

This made Aunt Liu's eyes turn red.

Lin Chuqian didn't care about the contempt in other people's eyes, she got up and greeted her with a smile, her demeanor was quite calm and magnanimous.

Knowing her temperament, Zhou Yurong didn't like to show off, so she didn't force her anymore.

Everyone took their seats and began to move their chopsticks.

Xiao Er said a lot of festive words in a row, and also brought a lot of good dishes with good taste and taste.

Lin Chuqian's heart moved slightly, and she immediately found the comfort of coming to the banquet this time, at least she can have a good meal, right?
So when other people at the table were chatting and laughing happily, she just ate meat in silence.

Aunt Liu had long felt resentment towards Zhou Yurong for her different attitude from Lin Chuqian. Seeing that Lin Chuqian seemed to be putting vegetables in her bowl regardless of etiquette, she couldn't help teasing: "Sister, isn't it too early today?" Shan, are you hungry?"

Lin Chuqian ate well, and almost choked when she heard Aunt Liu's words, would she die if she didn't have a bad day with her?

How do you call it useless breakfast?Are you saying that she was reincarnated like a starving ghost?
She was speechless for a while, put the dishes and chopsticks away, and when she looked up, she found that the eyes of the women at the table were all focused on her, and there was no lack of contempt and disdain among them.

Lin Chuqian swallowed the food in her mouth, settled her mind, smiled slightly, and said calmly: "It's not that I'm hungry, but the food in this good restaurant is very appetizing, so I can't help eating more." After eating a few mouthfuls, everyone laughed."

"Really?" Aunt Liu picked up her handkerchief and covered her mouth with a slightly sarcastic smile. "It's only been a few dishes, and my sister can't keep her mouth shut? If the signature dishes of this Busu building are served later, wouldn't my sister want to swallow them all?"

Lin Chuqian looked at the pile of delicious dishes on the table, and wondered if these dozen or so dishes were all appetizers?

This shit, it's a bit of a waste of food.

The life of the rich is really extravagant.

Seeing that Lin Chuqian was buried and a little bit unable to get off the stage, Zhou Yurong got up to smooth things over. "What Aunt Liu said, the delicacies in this impressive building are famous far and wide, so what's the harm in adding a few mouthfuls to Aunt Bai's delicious food? Speaking of the delicious food on the table, it would be a waste if you don't eat it while it's hot, so everyone should move quickly Chopsticks!"

Aunt Liu was about to speak, but her face turned pale from Zhou Yurong's wink.

That's right, she brought He Mingqiu here today, not to win the limelight with Lin Chuqian, but to make friends with noble ladies and pave the way for the future.

At this time, she blushed for the sake of a mere Aunt Bai, and the gain outweighed the loss.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly restrained her expression, and smiled to restore her image: "What Mrs. Gao said is that I was the one who was abrupt, and I hope my sister will not take it to heart."

"It's okay." Lin Chuqian shook her head indifferently.

After all, the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit chilled by this episode, and their expressions were very subtle.

It just so happened that at this time the waiter in the store brought freshly baked dishes to the table and shouted loudly: "Braised pork with bamboo shoots, please take it easy, ladies and gentlemen."

Lin Chuqian didn't think there was anything at first, but looking at the steaming bamboo shoots stewed pork, it was really delicious, the chopsticks couldn't help moving, and before she stepped forward to pick up a piece, Zhou Yurong told her with a smile: " Aunt Bai, you have to try this dish, it is the signature dish of Busulou."

Lin Chuqian was taken aback for a moment, thinking of the name of Busulou, she burst out laughing.

Laughing so much that Zhou Yurong and the other female relatives at the table who heard it felt puzzled, and some people couldn't help frowning, thinking that this Aunt Bai was indeed a small family, and she didn't have any manners at the dinner table.

"Why is Aunt Bai laughing?" Zhou Yurong was puzzled.

Lin Chuqian found that the eyes of the people at the table would fall on her impartially again, and the smile on her face gradually subsided. If she didn't tell the reason at this time, she might be taken seriously by others. She is an uneducated person who can't get on the stage.

Thinking of Sheng'er who was still surrounded by everyone, she knew that she couldn't let him lose face.

Then he put down the bowls and chopsticks calmly, showed a gentle smile, and said, "At first I wondered why this restaurant had such a good name, but now I see the signature dish of braised pork with bamboo shoots, and I understand."

"What does this signature dish have to do with the name?" Some people were still puzzled, turned to look at their familiar friends, and found that the other party was also confused.

Lin Chuqian was also taken aback when she saw everyone, she pursed her lips and began to think about the anecdote in her mind, which may or may not have existed in this era.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu thought that she was going to show off and make a fool of herself in front of everyone, so she couldn't hold back her eagerness to urge her immediately. "Sister, tell me quickly, it's too disappointing to have a beginning and an end."

Lin Chuqian glanced at her and smiled lightly. "I once read an allusion in a book. It said that a long time ago, a literary master tasted the dish of braised pork with bamboo shoots at a banquet. It's okay, and he wrote a doggerel casually."

Everyone listened silently, full of curiosity.

She smiled and opened her mouth slowly. "No bamboo makes people vulgar, no meat makes people thin; not vulgar but not thin, braised pork with bamboo shoots."

As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned for a moment, then covered their mouths and chuckled.

This doggerel must be mischievous and interesting.

At first, Zhou Yurong was worried that she would not be able to come to the stage, but now seeing that she dealt with the situation in a good manner and said such witty words, which made everyone laugh, she breathed a sigh of relief and joked with a smile: "This literary master is very funny, Presumably, she is as delicious a character as Aunt Bai."

Lin Chuqian smiled and shook her head. "Madam Gao is serious. Compared to that, I'm just a layman who only knows how to eat and drink."

"Aunt Bai is being modest." There was a lady on the table who hadn't lost the fun of the doggerel, and praised with a smile: "If you don't know the elegance, how can you read the doggerel casually?"

"That's right, this is the first time I've heard of this doggerel, it's really interesting!"

"That's right, I didn't know the origin of this Busu building before, but after listening to Aunt Bai's poem today, I also understood."
