The Culinary Tycoon

After eating and drinking enough, Luo Mingda was about to go out, but just as he walked out of the main hall, he was caught by his aunt.

"Hey, San'er, why are you here? Have you considered what I told you yesterday?" Love Lang called his son and asked.

Luo Mingda turned around impatiently, and asked: "Ah, what's the matter? I'm in a hurry to go out, I have something to say when I come back."

"Go out, go out, go out, what business do you have to go out, if your father sees it, he will have to skin you."

Lovran came over, pulled Luo Mingda's arm, and asked, "Let me ask you, what do you think of the brother of the servant of the Ministry of Punishment that I told you yesterday, and you can give me an accurate answer today." Let me tell you, this brother is not only beautiful and intelligent, but also good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In this capital city, he is a good brother, and the suitors can line up at the gate of the city. Lantern can’t find such a good brother!”

"Oh, what! I'm still young. Didn't the elder brother and the second elder brother get married in their twenties? Besides, your son and I are good-looking and talented. From Zhilan Yushu, which one of the brothers you are looking for can match?" Want me? Don’t you think so?” Luo Mingda took his aunt’s hand and said coquettishly.

"You are the only one paying back Zhilan Yushu?" Luo Fulang didn't like being coquettish, rolled his son's eyes, and said, "Let me tell you, the eldest brother of the servant of the Ministry of punishment is very good-looking, better than you don't know How many times, you won't know it, you will regret it later!"

No matter how beautiful it is, can it be as beautiful as the fairy I saw yesterday?If it's yesterday's brother, let me get married right away!

Luo Mingda murmured in his heart, patted Ah Mo on the shoulder twice, and said, "Okay, okay, let me regret it, Ah Mo, I really have to go, let's talk when I come back."

Saying that, Luo Mingda turned around and walked towards the gate. After walking a few steps, he saw his father came back.

"Hey, Dad? You're in court? Why are you back at this time? Shouldn't you be working in the Ministry of Rites?"

"I forgot something and came back to get it." Lord Luo saw that Luo Mingda was about to go out, stared and asked, "Where are you going, Luo Mingda?"

"Uh, that," Luo Mingda thought for a while, rolled his eyes, and said, "Chu Rong got a new pair of calligraphy, and invited me to appreciate it. Hahaha..."

"Just you? Still appreciating? Do you want to laugh your father and I off?" Lord Luo stared at him, and said sharply, "Also, did you go to Hualou again last night?"

"..." Luo Mingda blinked, took a step back, and replied falteringly: "Uh, well, Dad, I just went to drink a little wine, I didn't spend the night in Hualou, and I didn't touch there Little brother, really."

Master Luo got angry when he heard that, he turned around and grabbed a broom from a passing servant, and hit Luo Mingda.

"Well, you Luo Mingda, I just told you to stay away from that group of people the day before yesterday, and you forgot about it when you turned your head! Huh? See if I don't kill you, you bastard! I'll break your leg, see You can't go out and fool around!"

"Hey, daddy, daddy, daddy, I listened to what you said, I really haven't touched Hualou's little brother, why are you hitting me! Don't hit me, don't hit me!"

"Hey, master, don't get angry, just talk about it, what's the point of beating him? Why are you getting angry! Stop beating..." Seeing Luo Fulang, he hurried over to stop Master Luo.

"Fu Lang, get out of the way, if I don't beat him today, he won't have a long memory!" Master Luo became anxious, pulled Luo Fulang away, and continued to beat him with a broom.

"It will be Qiu Wei in seven or eight months. You don't want me to study hard at home, but you go out to fool around? You think I don't know, you guys spend time and drink all day long! What kind of good do you think that Chu Rong is? ? He just came to get close to you on purpose to spoil you, and spent all day in the Hualou tavern, do you have any brains?"

"Oh, Dad, I got it. I just went to play, drink wine, eat snacks, and listen to music! I didn't do anything else! Don't hit me! Ah, call someone to stop me My dad! Dad! Hit me again..." Luo Mingda said while hiding.

"What's wrong with beating you? I won't remember you today, so I'll take your surname!"

"...Father, I have the same surname as you, both surnamed Luo, let's forget about it, huh?"

"You, you..." Lord Luo stopped to pant, and when he heard this, he was so angry with this unfilial son that he couldn't laugh or cry, and rushed up again, waving the broom, "See if I don't break your leg!"

Luo Mingda jumped to dodge, but he didn't dare to fight back, so he could only shout: "Help, Lord Shangshu is beating someone! Lord Shangshu is beating someone!"

"You bastard! You... ouch! ouch..." Master Luo stopped holding the broom suddenly, and yelled while holding his waist with the other hand.

"Ouch, master, what's wrong with you? Are you showing off your waist?" Luo Fulang saw that something was wrong and hurried over to support Master Luo, and at the same time ordered the servant: "Come on, hurry up, help the master back to the room and sit down." Now, housekeeper, hurry up and ask the doctor to come and show the master."

"Hey, dad, what's the matter with you?" Luo Mingda hurried over to support his dad, and said, "I told you not to fight, you think you are still as strong as a cow in your twenties or thirties? This flash Are you stooping?"

"You..." Master Luo was about to die of anger, pointing at him and said angrily, "Get lost, don't be an eyesore to me!"

"Hey dad, you're all like this, calm down quickly. Hey, Dr. Zou is here, come and take a look."

After Dr. Zou showed it to Mr. Luo, he confirmed that there was no major problem. He just stretched it a bit. After Dr. Zou massaged it, Mr. Luo recovered.

After making sure his father was fine, Luo Mingda sneaked out while his father was not paying attention.

For more than ten days in a row, Luo Mingda sent his servant Yuan Bao to rush out to the street to find someone for him every day, but they found nothing.

"Alas..." Luo Mingda was lying on the table, listlessly teasing the starling beside him.

"Ah!" The starling, who was all in black, yelled.

"What are you?" Chu Rong patted the head of the bird in the cage, then knocked on the table and said, "Hey, brother Mingda, you've been moaning all day, and you don't look like you anymore. I heard that this The goose made by the newly opened store is very delicious, so I brought you here, what's the matter, don't even want to eat your favorite food?"

"Brother Mingda looks like this, could it be that he has taken a fancy to a brother?" Another rich man next to him said, waving his fan.

Luo Mingda glanced at him, and said, "It's winter, don't you feel too cold with a fan? How about a flute!"

"Hey, this is called Fengya. Brother Mingda, you don't understand this. Now those brothers like this kind of image of Fengya. Look." The young man stood up immediately, his chin raised slightly, and his eyes looked sideways. Above, with one hand behind his back, he swiped open the fan with the other, and fanned it slightly on the waist and abdomen, "Isn't it particularly romantic?"

Lominda: ...

"Hey, you haven't said what's wrong with you yet?" The young master closed his fan and sat down, poked Luo Mingda's arm, and asked.

Luo Mingda then told the story of meeting the fairy on the Lantern Festival.

After finishing speaking, Chu Rong and the young master burst out laughing.

"That's it? Do you know how many brothers are on the street on the Lantern Festival? How can you find this? If you like people, you should rush up and ask them for their names. You, what's the use of thinking every day now? "

Luo Mingda sighed, he also wanted to ask and strike up a conversation, but when he was looked at by those eyes, he felt as if all the thoughts in his heart had been seen, so he was embarrassed to ask.

Back home, Luo Mingda went to the desk, took out a painting that was under the desk, placed it in the middle of the desk, and stared blankly.

On the painting, he carefully drew it from memory, and it was the fairy he had been thinking about day and night recently.

"Who are you?" Luo Mingda gently caressed the face of the painting with his fingers, muttering to himself.

"Hey, San'er, come and take a look. Ah, I found you a suitable portrait of my brother. Come and take a look." Luo Fulang suddenly opened the door and came in. pile of portraits.

Luo Mingda quickly took a piece of paper and covered the portrait of the fairy.

"Ah, I'm about to go to sleep, why are you here? Didn't I tell you, why are you looking for portraits again?"

Love Lang glanced at him and said, "I'm afraid you'll run away again tomorrow morning. Don't you always say that you don't know what other people look like? I purposely found a portrait, so come and take a look."

"Look, this is the elder brother of Mr. Zhao, the head of the official department. He is sixteen years old and looks very cute... This is the second elder brother of General Zhenyuan's family. He is eighteen years old and is very charming. Ah I've seen it, you must like it."

Luo Mingda glanced at it, not very interested.

"And this, this is the eldest brother of the servant of the Ministry of Justice, I told you before, look, isn't he very handsome?"

Luo Mingda glanced helplessly, and said, "It's a little better than the previous ones, but why does that body look like it can be blown down by a gust of wind?"

Hmph, not as good as Bai Yi, the fairy in his heart.

Luo Fulang glared at him, and said: "What are you talking about? I've seen Brother Xin before, and it looks better than the painting. This means that the painter's technique is a bit weak, and he didn't draw the charm of Brother Xin."

"Oh, it's alright, alright, alright, take your time, I'll go find my elder brother." Saying that, Luo Mingda left.

"Hey, San'er, I haven't finished watching this yet."

"Look for yourself." It's all crooked, I'm looking for a fairy!

"This child..." Luo Fulang shook his head and sighed, then ordered the boy: "Put the portrait away and put it on the young master's desk."

Lovran saw the mess in front of Luo Mingda's desk, and went over to clean it up for him, but saw the painting under the rice paper.

"Isn't this Brother Xin? The painting is quite similar." Luo Fulang frowned for a while, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled again: "This kid, he said he didn't want it, and he secretly drew others' pictures." The portrait, it turns out that you have seen him for a long time, and you are afraid that I will know?"

The boy next to him came over with the portrait in his arms and wanted to put it down, but Luo Fulang smiled and waved his hands and said no, and took the boy out.

The next morning, Luo Mingda woke up early, ate some breakfast casually, and rode out of the city with his servant Yuan Bao.

Today is the day when Zhang Qingyang, the prime minister's son, organizes a spring outing.

The two rode all the way to the gate of the city, joined Chu Rong and the others, and headed towards Zhaoxia Mountain.

Zhaoxia Mountain is very large, it is a mountain range composed of several mountains, and there are several beautiful places that are suitable for outings.In order to appear mysterious, Zhang Qingyang did not mention the specific location of the event in the post, but only said that he would lead the way when the time came. Therefore, Luo Mingda and the others did not know the specific location of the event.

When the group of them arrived at Zhaoxia Mountain, they searched for about half an hour before finally finding a group of people in a valley with a waterfall.

"Hey, Brother Chu, I think this place is good and the scenery is beautiful, why don't we just enjoy the scenery here?" Luo Mingda got off his horse, looked at Zhang Qingyang in front, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile.

Chu Rong also got off the horse, knowing that he was competing with Zhang Qingyang, nodded and smiled, "Okay."

Zhang Qingyang smiled lightly, came over to say hello, and said: "San Shao Luo, Master Chu, what a coincidence, you are here too?"

Luo Mingda threw the reins to Yuan Bao and asked him to tie the horse, and then replied: "It's a coincidence, I didn't expect you to be here too? The wind here..."

As he spoke, Luo Mingda swept aside, and just as he was about to say, "The scenery here is pleasant, it's a good place to enjoy spring", when he saw a familiar figure not far away.

"Fairy?!"
