Journey to the West from Daqin
Page 487
Li Jue waved them out, and then ordered a few maidservants to start preparing the dinner. The menu was left over from his previous stays here. These maidservants already had experience and could make [-]% to [-]% of his standard dinner.
Niu Wang was very excited and said: "My lord, why are you back when you have time?"
Li Jue said: "The things I want to do are almost done, and now it's time to come back."
"My sister-in-law urged them to prepare a dinner for Brother Nezha and me."
Niu Wang's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, my lord, these little daughters-in-law have already cooked the dishes on the menu left by the lord. Can enter the eyes of the prince."
Li Jue nodded to express her approval, and at the same time asked about her children.
He was so considerate, which made Niu Wang very excited and grateful. After a day of hard work and exhaustion, she instantly felt refreshed.
Niu Wang is also a chatterbox, constantly talking about his family and Niu San's situation, especially when talking about Niu San, repeatedly stating that Niu San is working hard in the Lishan Temple.
Li Jue nodded without the slightest bit of impatience, because this kind of family background was too far away from him.
It had been a long time since he had heard such a welcoming speech, and after waiting for the pre-dinner desserts prepared by the maidservants to come up, Niu Wang consciously closed his mouth and stepped aside.
There are some dishes that she has practiced for a long time. It can be said that except for her, Niu Wang, these maidservants are not yet ready.
Moreover, these dishes are also Niu Wang's specialties, so they must be presented at this time, so she has to go to the kitchen to work.
With no chatter around, Li Jue suddenly felt that his ears were much quieter, and he felt that there was no fireworks, which seemed good.
Then invite Nezha to taste these pre-dinner desserts, which are delicacy on earth that Nezha has never eaten in heaven.
And when he was entertained by Ying Zheng in the palace, he ate some fruits and melons as a tribute, and he didn't encounter any other pre-dinner desserts, wine and delicacies.
So he started to gobble it up, and wiped out these pre-dinner desserts.
He began to complain again: "Why do you have more delicacies here than those in the palace?"
Li Jue naturally knew what Ying Zheng was thinking, and he also understood what happened to Nezha.
He laughed and said, "Since His Majesty the Emperor thinks that your father and son are the reincarnation of immortals, or even descended from immortals, naturally they dare not give you food from this world."
"Only the snow lotus on that day's mountain and the rare and exotic fruits enshrined from various places, as well as the sweet rain and jade dew, are worthy of your status."
At this time, three more dishes were served, a grilled chicken, a delicious grilled lamb chops, and a braised fish.
Nezha tore off a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. He rotated it with his teeth once, and the flesh and blood were separated. He threw away the bone, chewed it, and swallowed the meat.
He pulled the lamb chops again and chewed.
At the same time, Shu Shuang complained: "What kind of nonsense exotic fruit, Ganlin Yulu, are ordinary fruits without the slightest aura, and Ganlin Yulu is just dew in the early morning.
I was already tired of eating it when I was practicing before, but now that I am successful in practicing, I still want to eat these, and I have to vomit several times. "
Chapter 470 IX Delicious in the World, Le Busi Xian
Hearing Nezha's complaint, Li Jue couldn't help laughing.
"Immortals are made by mortals, and they have to eat wine and meat. His Majesty the Emperor is too imaginative about immortals, so the immortals in his eyes are sleeping in the wind, drinking dew in the morning and eating in the sunset."
"However, he didn't expect that immortals are nothing but powerful existences. They are either transformed by other living beings, or mortals become immortals. As long as they are not for cultivation, they will have the seven emotions and six desires, and naturally they will also have the desire to eat."
Nezha gorged himself on it, and upon hearing this, his mouth was already full, but he couldn't help but applaud Li Jue.
The speed of serving food in the kitchen has become faster and faster, and soon, the dishes on the table are full and steaming.
Li Jue also asked someone to bring the Feitian wine that had been dusty for a long time, and drank it with Nezha to form a trio.
Nezha looks young, but he has actually lived for more than a thousand years. He dare not say that he is mature, but he is not taboo about meat and vegetables.
He and Li Jue ate big bowls of meat and drank, even when the wine was hot, he would hook shoulders with Li Jue and call him brothers.
Li Jue didn't want to be inferior to the generation of Li Jing, the King of Tota, but Nezha was older than him, and he was arrogant, righteous, and quick-talking, so he couldn't help but want to call him a brother.
So Li Jue simply decided to call Nezha his brother and brother, and share positions with King Tota.
Nezha called Li Jing his father, and Li Jing called Nezha his little brother.
Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
A group of people came outside the door, it was Hu Man, Niu San, Xu Fu and others.
There was also Jia Sizzhen's wife and children, but after Jia Sizzhen's wife and children entered the door, after a few words of greeting with Li Jue, they retreated consciously.
Apart from these people, no other senior officials came.
Xu Fu came in front of Li Jue and told the truth: "It turns out that it is the emperor's way of winning the government. Li Jue doesn't like dealing with the powerful, and he doesn't like flattery, so in order to prevent Li Jue from being disturbed by these favors, he directly ordered anyone Court officials are not allowed to disturb Li Jue."
In other words, Ying Zheng already knew that Li Jue was back, and at the same time ordered that no officials should be allowed to disturb him.
Li Jue was grateful in his heart, but at the same time felt a little guilty. He didn't enter the palace immediately after he came back to visit that old brother who was dying.
After Xu Fu stayed here for a while, he also consciously said goodbye and left.
He and Li Jue are not old friends. In fact, he was kidnapped by Li Jue from overseas, so he has always been respectful to Li Jue.
At this time, it was obvious that Li Jue wanted to reminisce with his old friends, and it was natural for a semi-official celestial master like him not to stay too long.
After Niu San came back, he also laughed and took the bowl and chopsticks to eat with Li Jue, but he was not too polite like his wife Niu Wang, but Li Jue found a trace of familiar kindness.
But when Niu San reached out to grab the roast leg of lamb and the Buddha jumping over the wall in front of Li Jue, he couldn't help but want to beat up this idiot.
When Hu Man saw Li Jue, her eyes were full of love and resentment, and she went to the side to pour wine and food for him silently.
Seeing this scene, Nezha couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother Li, is this why you linger in the world?"
Hearing this, Hu Man immediately blushed and lowered her head a little shyly.
But Hu Man, Niu San and the people around them all heard the meaning of Nezha's words, and they were even more shocked.
This person is really a fairy, and he knew Li Jue from heaven.
Only Li Jue noticed Nezha's title, and felt a little funny in his heart, but also a little helpless.
Because of a dinner, Nezha has become so familiar with him that they call him brother and brother, and Nezha calls Li Jue his eldest brother.
Because Nezha said that calling Li Jue Li Tianwang feels the same as calling him his father, so there is a feeling that he calls Li Jue his father.
And although he was older than Li Jue, he was not as prudent as Li Jue in his words and deeds between people. What's more, he was short-handed and soft-spoken, so he couldn't call Li Jue a younger brother.
The most important thing is that in the world of practice, there is no distinction of age, and those who have achieved it come first. Li Jue has already confessed at the dinner table that his cultivation base has reached the upper rank of the Golden Immortal, and he and Yang Jian went to Mount Emei to subdue demons and help Yang Jian solves a big problem.
When Nezha heard this, he naturally called Li Jue his eldest brother.
However, Nezha's cultivation base is the same as Yang Jian's. He has already reached the realm of Taiyi Jinxian.
However, although they are both in the realm of Taiyi Jinxian, there is a gap in strength between the two, and Yang Jian is still above Nezha.
Although Nezha's cultivation level is higher than Li Jue's, but when Li Jue said that he wrestled with Yang Jian and broke Yang Jian's hands, Nezha almost worshiped him.
Nezha thought that after having a meal with Li Jue, the relationship between them has become closer.
They are already able to call themselves brothers and sisters, so when they talk, they don't care about meat or vegetables.
Even Nezha teased the relationship between Li Jue and Hu Man. Li Jue shrugged indifferently, neither admitting nor refusing.
For Hu Man, this is a huge improvement.
However, she still intends to report to Li Jue that her achievements in the past six months, after all, as the richest woman in Daqin, together with Li Jue, she manages all the wealth, just to do good deeds.
In the past six months, Hu Man has made Li Jue's business bigger and bigger, even going overseas, and even to the south of the country.
Although you feel that the business is getting bigger and bigger, the money on Li Jue's books is indeed getting less and less, because most of it has been donated.
However, the money did not flow directly into the hands of ordinary people, but was transformed into more substantial things, such as houses and roads, various plank roads, and public construction.
As a result, many villagers who may never have the means to leave their local villages can go out of their villages to live in other places.
It also allowed some people, who had never seen certain ingredients in their entire lives, but with the help of Li Jue's wealth, they had the opportunity to eat more delicacies that they had never touched in their entire lives.
Not only that, when building roads and plank roads for them, many schools were also built, so that ordinary people have the opportunity to learn characters and change their lives against the sky.
Spreading all these things requires an astonishing amount of wealth. Even if Li Jue donates all his wealth, he cannot do it in case.
It is necessary for Hu Man to take care of his wealth and form a virtuous circle.
Under the operation of Hu Man, Daqin's capital and labor began to circulate, and it was no longer a stagnant water.
And under the premise of doing so many things, Hu Man did not make a big publicity that it was Li Jue's credit.
But many ordinary people know it well.
Listening to Hu Man's narration, Li Jue seemed calm, but in fact he knew that to do so many things in such a short period of time would require a terrifying amount of energy.
In particular, he also saw a wrinkle in the corner of Hu Man's eyes, which made him feel a little touched.
Although Hu Man has been given some elixir, it can increase her lifespan by decades, or even hundreds of years.
but.
During this period of time, she was still too overworked, and even crow's feet appeared.
Li Jue took out some fairy fruit and fairy wine in the Qiankun bag, these were given to him by Sa Tianshi, I dare not say that they are piled up like a mountain, but they are enough to eat and drink for several years.
As Li Jue's cultivation became higher and higher, for him, these things were just to satisfy his appetite.
Even today's Li Jue is only using it as a favor, but now he is giving it to Hu Man to enjoy.
Hu Man ate the fairy fruit and drank fine wine, and was very moved.
Niu San, his wife, and other maidservants were all envious, but no one asked for it.
Li Jue casually threw a fairy fruit to them, but Nezha didn't want it, because these things were all leftovers in the sky, and he threw them for fun.
After drinking and eating, it was gradually getting late. Li Jue bid farewell to everyone, but Hu Man did not leave.
She was coy, and took the opportunity to say that she wanted to discuss the national economy and the people's livelihood and stay, while Nezha went back.
evening.
Li Jue and Hu Man were admiring the moon on the roof, and Hu Man was leaning against Li Jue, it was so natural.
In fact, she was very excited and nervous, worried about being pushed away by Li Jue.
However, Li Jue did not.
He is not hard-hearted, nor an idiot, so he naturally sees what Hu Man's purpose is for doing so much for him.
That is greedy for his body.
Anyway, now is not the time to keep practicing as a boy, he is already the upper rank of the Golden Immortal, so Li Jue does not reject the affection of his sons and daughters.
