Time passed slowly, and soon it was time to eat at noon, and Zhong Ziqi's kitchen was at the end.

A plate of braised fish, a plate of brine shrimp, a plate of deep-fried oysters, a plate of pork with Mei Cai, a plate of boiled pork tenderloin, a plate of cold dishes, a plate of vegetable dishes, and a pot of thick soup.

There are a total of eight dishes, which is an auspicious number and a standard for entertaining VIPs.

Zhong Ziqi greeted Hong Ying who was pestle behind him: "Help me take it over."

Hong Ying walked over with a blank expression on her face and brought a plate of dishes to the dining table set up in the hall.

"It smells so good!" Shen Yubei leaned over in a chair and sniffed it, and took a deep breath. Even if he hadn't even started to eat, he knew it would be delicious.

"I said I won't let you down. Ziqi's craftsmanship is more blue than blue. Looking at the nearby ten miles and eight villages, no one can match him." Zhao Zhengan put the dishes and chopsticks out and took out today. The jar that I bought was filled with good wine.

"Okay, drink less today, so as not to be ugly." Shen Yubei stretched out his hand to block Zhao Zhengan's hand that continued to fall.

Zhao Zhengan did not force himself to pour himself a bowl, Hongying did not pour it, and as a guard, it seemed that he couldn't drink.

When the eight dishes were on the table, Zhong Ziqi also sat down on the chair next to Zhao Zhengan. Only Hongying stood motionless. The master didn't speak, his little guard was not qualified to sit at a table with the master, and the master allowed him to sit with him a few times in order to be less high-profile.

"Uh...Uncle" Zhong Ziqi pointed to Hongying, is this asking them to eat and watch him?

Too cruel……

Shen Yubei glanced at the wood-like Hongying: "Sit down and eat together."

"Thank you, Master." Hongying couldn't help but swallowed and sat beside Shen Yubei, with her hands on her knees and her head hanging down slightly.

"Uncle, let's eat. I didn't make any good dishes. They are all homemade. I don't know your habit of eating or not." Zhong Ziqi said politely.

Shen Yubei looked at the eight dishes on the table and smiled helplessly: "You kid, didn't you tell you not to do so much, even when you were in the old house, it was not so rich."

"This is in a hurry, otherwise I can make a few more, it won't be troublesome at all, you can try it, uncle."

"Okay, I'll try it."

Shen Yubei grabbed the chopsticks, clamped the plate of meat that was closest to him, put it in his mouth and chewed it twice, his eyes lit up, and then he gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious, and the chef in the restaurant is just right. This level is not even as good as you!"

Shen Yubei was quite surprised in his heart. Zhong Ziqi’s craftsmanship is not an exaggeration of him, it is really great. This is what he did not expect. It is better than a restaurant chef. Zhong Ziqi’s dishes have a very unique taste. He doesn't know what it tastes like, but he knows that everyone has their own taste in cooking.

"Uncle, isn't it an exaggeration? How can it be so delicious." Zhong Ziqi smiled embarrassedly.

"Uncle is right, the dishes you cook are much better than those chefs." Zhao Zhengan also tasted Zhong Ziqi's first oyster, nodded and said.

Zhong Ziqi kicked him under the table: "You can eat it!"

"Uncle, let's eat, the dishes will be cold in a while."

"Well, eat it"

"Wait, uncle, I will respect you a bowl first." Zhao Zhengan said solemnly, raising his wine bowl.

"Okay." Shen Yubei also picked up the bowl and touched him. Both of them took a big sip, and then started to eat the deliciousness of the table with their chopsticks.

Although Shen Yubei comes from a large family, he pays attention to the rules of not eating and not talking at the dinner table, but it is not strictly abided by it. Orientals are close to each other at the dinner table, so the three of them also consciously eat while eating. chat.

Poor Hongying didn't dare to pick the dishes far away because of his uncomfortableness. He could only eat rice and the only dish of greens on the table. Even the greens were cooked very fragrantly. The meat not far away would be even more delicious. It's delicious, Hong Ying thought, but the movement of her hand did not change, still holding the plate of vegetables.

Still careless Zhao Zhengan took the lead to notice him: "Brother, don't just eat vegetables, eat some meat, so many dishes!"

Zhao Zhengan pushed a plate of meat in front of him.

Hongying bit the chopsticks and said nothing, Shen Yubei coughed, glanced at Hongying, and Hongying met immediately, extending the chopsticks for the first time, and adding that plate of meat under the eyes of the three of them... Root vegetable.

"..."

For the first time, Shen Yubei felt that his confidant was dull and dull enough. He raised his leg and kicked him on the knee under the table.

Hongying took a meal and glanced at his master, and saw that he was staring and quickly picked up another chopsticks dish. This time he caught the small tenderloin that had been greedy for him for a long time. The mouth was as beautiful as imagined, and Hong Ying's eyes were filled with joy.

Several people were eating and chatting, and a meal was over after noon and it was almost afternoon.

※※※

In the afternoon, the breeze is blowing, the sun is shining, and the back hills of Zhaojia Village are still verdant and green, with birds singing.

Zhong Ziqi and the four went up the mountain along the small road that was stepped on by their predecessors. Zhong Ziqi led the way and walked through a small dirt ditch. Not far away, there was a small grave bag covered with grass. A simple wooden board was erected in front of the grave, and the tomb of Zhong Zhenhang and his wife Shen Yu was written hastily.

"This is the grave of my Eminem and my father."

Zhong Ziqi said sadly, don’t misunderstand that this emotion is really coming from his body, not from him, in fact, he usually doesn’t dare to come here, if it’s his father and mother, forget it, the key is They were two people who were strange to him and hadn't met yet.

And he also occupied his son's body. How dare he show up in front of others, don't come to him in the middle of the night and thank God, he is really not courageous!

"Let me stay here alone for a while?" Shen Yubei said emotionally.

"Okay, let's go down the mountain first. Just go back the same way." Zhao Zhengan said understandably, there must be a lot to say after so many years of not seeing him.

Shen Yubei nodded and waved his hand.

Zhao Zhengan took Zhong Ziqi down the mountain. Zhao Zhengan used his arms to fend off the messy branches and said, "Seriously, we haven't seen Eminem for a long time."

"Well...it's been too busy this time."

Zhong Ziqi said with some guilty conscience, it seems that in the future, we should take Zhao Zhengan with him. It is impossible not to come all the time. All three of this family have left. He does not expect the Zhong family to burn paper for them, but he coming.

Zhao Zhengan rubbed his head and said nothing. Zhong Ziqi's strangeness thought he thought of the sadness of his parents.

"It's getting late, my uncle and the others will definitely stay here tonight." Zhong Ziqi quietly tidyed up her tousled hair and changed the subject.

"Well, I think so too, is there enough food? Do you want to go to Zhao Ama's to catch a little cock?"

Zhong Ziqi thought about the few kilograms of vegetables she bought and shook her head: "I don't know, let's talk about it, anyway, it will be too late anyway, isn't Uncle Baogen at home?"

"Well, listen to you."

Back home, Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan had nothing to do, so they simply took two small benches and sat in front of the door to talk, teasing the two **** dogs.

"Listen to my uncle. My grandfather and grandmother are both alive. Will you come to us when you say that? Or do you want us to go?" Zhong Ziqi asked Zhao Zhengan with his head tilted.

"Maybe, after all, you are the orphan of someone else's eldest brother, you must meet, but I don't know if these two get along well."

"Yeah. It is estimated to be very severe." Zhong Ziqi thought of some things Shen Yubei had described to him, and said affirmatively.

On the mountain, Shen Yubei wiped the crystal on her face, stood up and patted her knees: "Brother, it's late, I'm going down the mountain. You raised Ziqi very well. I like it very much. Believe Daddy and Eminem. I will like it too, we miss you all! Brother, I'm leaving, next time I come, I will see you again."

Shen Yubei talked about it for a long time before going down the mountain with Hongying.

As soon as I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I saw two sneaky figures hiding behind a big tree, secretly watching them.

Shen Yubei frowned. At this time, his mood was absolutely terrible, and he didn't want to pay attention to these people with unknown motives. Although the two of them were sneaky, they didn't come to bother him.

"You're back, uncle." Zhong Ziqi opened the door and looked at the two masters and servants standing at the door.

"Um..." Shen Yubei nodded and walked into the courtyard: "By the way, when I went down the mountain just now, I saw two sneaky people following us."

"sneaking?"

Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan looked at each other in a daze. It seems that few can do such a thing.

"Do you know?" Shen Yubei felt that there was a problem with the expressions of the two of them, and couldn't help wondering who these two were.

"Who can anyone else, not his parents, or my uncle's family. No one can do this except for them." Zhong Ziqi said helplessly.

Zhao Zhengan touched his nose awkwardly and smiled at Shen Yubei.

Shen Yubei learned that they also took a small bench and sat in the courtyard and asked, "What? Do they often come to trouble you?"

"It's not very often, but it's almost the same. I will come to the door every few days to ask for this and that."

When Zhong Ziqi talked about this, he was full of complaints and was irritated, but it was a pity that this was a relative who was related to him and Zhao Zhengan by blood, or else he would have rushed away with a broomstick.

"Oh? There's something else? Then do you agree?"

"How could it be possible to agree, there will be two, if there is a precedent, it will not stop."

Shen Yubei nodded appreciatively: "This is right, I can't agree to it. You have to think of a way to do it once and for all, and completely let them be honest, otherwise you may miss something."

"Ok…"

Zhong Ziqi nodded thoughtfully, feeling that what he said made sense. It's just that he couldn't think of a way for a while.

Shen Yubei glanced at the two of them, and leisurely pointed out: "If you want to hold a person, you must first find out their weaknesses. If you want to hold their weaknesses, are you afraid that they won't listen to you?"

Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan’s eyes lit up. The Zhao family’s weakness seems to be their youngest son. After all, this one is the only one for their children, and they will have to count on him in the future.

In ancient times, the reception of descendants was even more important. So the Zhong family... also had two children, a brother and a kid, both of whom happened to be unmarried. If there is something bad about this, then these two children But it was ruined, don't expect to marry or marry into a good family.

The more Zhong Ziqi thought about it, the more it made sense, and she thought: This time they dare not provoke him!

Humph!
