Chapter 225: Who is that Mr. Xu?
Chapter 225 Who is that Mr. Xu?
There is no news about her, how could the eldest brother appear here?
Nan Gongyao said: "Maybe I misread it, I just think that the person's back looks a bit like that, I didn't see the front face."
Nangong Anshan said: "Then you must have misread it. If you see similar people again in the future, don't act alone. Tell Sister first, do you understand?"
"Well, I see."
Private room
Xiao Ruiyan ordered someone to notify Xiaoer to serve the dishes, and said, "Mother, that girl from Nangong Anshan is the girl whose handwriting I told you looks like my sister."
Mrs. Xiao said: "So it's her, she really doesn't look like an ordinary person."
"Mother, let me tell you, she..."
Xiao Ruiyan briefly explained what Nangong Anshan had invented.
Mrs. Xiao said: "In this way, that girl is really very powerful."
Seeing her mother praising others, Xiao Rushuang immediately forgot what happened just now, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's so amazing, but she's just a cook. There are other things that only lowly people will touch."
Madam Xiao said angrily: "Rushuang!"
Dugu Huanxu also stared at Xiao Rushuang coldly.
Xiao Rushuang's body trembled, and she said in a trembling voice: "Okay... okay, I won't talk about her anymore."
Dugu Huanxu said: "It turns out that Second Miss Xiao likes to talk about people behind her back so much. Today I have seen your upbringing. Compared with Ah Yan and Ah Shen, your jealous character is not at all like the Xiao family people."
Xiao Rushuang was taken aback for a moment, she doesn't look like a member of the Xiao family at all?
She had heard these words from others since she was a child, because she was not like anyone in the family.
Not only does he not look like his parents, he is also not at all like his grandparents and grandparents in his hometown.
Tong Shuxuan saw that the second daughter was stupefied, and hurriedly said: "Young Master Xu is joking, Rushuang is my own, and she really doesn't look like a member of the family, but I heard from my mother that she is very similar to my grandmother."
"Oh." Dugu Huanxu didn't say anything after hearing the words, it was to give Tong Shuxuan a face.
Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Xiao Rurong looked at Dugu Huanxu shyly, and began to change the subject, "Mr. Xu, how did you and my elder brother meet?"
Dugu Huanxu said somewhat perfunctorily: "This is a long story, let your elder brother tell you about it later."
Xiao Rurong was suddenly a little sad.
Seeing this, Xiao Rushuang smiled triumphantly.
It’s really a scumbag of a lowly life. When you see someone good-looking, you want to seduce them, and you don’t look in the mirror to see if you are worthy of others.
It didn't take long for the dishes to be served.
The shopkeeper Zhuang knew that his master came in person, so he knew that today's guests were very unusual, so he came over to introduce everyone in person, "Everyone, you have all the dishes, these dishes are Garlic Spare Ribs, Maoxuewang, Spicy Chicken Ding, pickled fish, sweet-skinned duck, boiled pork slices, fish-flavored shredded pork, Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, chopped pepper fish head, this is after-dinner snacks, crystal cake and mung bean cake, please use it slowly.”
When everyone in the Xiao family saw the dishes in front of them, their eyes straightened.
These dishes are too pretty.
Xiao Rushuang immediately forgot what happened just now, and couldn't wait to eat.
Mrs. Xiao glared at her, and said: "Ru Shuang, although you are away from home, you still need to be educated. Mr. Xu hasn't touched your chopsticks yet, and your father hasn't arrived yet. How can you move your chopsticks first?"
Xiao Rushuang glanced at Dugu Huanxu, had no choice but to put down her chopsticks and wait anxiously.
Madam Xiao said: "These dishes are beyond what ordinary people can think of."
Xiao Rui said: "I also think that girl is not an ordinary person."
Xiao Rushuang didn't want to hear about Nangong Anshan, so she said, "Why isn't father here yet?"
"Come, I'm coming."
As soon as Xiao Rushuang finished speaking, Xiao Hongyi appeared at the door.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time, something happened on the road and it delayed some time."
Looking at the large table of dishes in front of him, Xiao Hongyi said in surprise: "These dishes..."
Xiao Rushuang said: "Father, sit down and eat quickly. The food has been on the table for a while, and it won't taste good if it's cold."
Xiao Hongyi ignored his daughter for the time being, and when he saw Dugu Huanxu was there, he didn't sit down, and said very politely: "Young Master Xu, you are also here."
Dugu Huanxu nodded: "Yes, uncle, please sit down, uncle."
"it is good."
Dugu Huanxu picked up the chopsticks and said, "Everyone eat, I have eaten some of these dishes several times, and the other new dishes look very appetizing, and the taste should be good."
Xiao Hongyi also picked up the chopsticks and said, "Okay."
Soon everyone started eating.
Xiao Rushuang and Xiao Rurong looked at each other, and saw the doubt in each other's eyes at the same time.
Why is father so polite to Mr. Xu, as if he is some kind of big shot?
Could it be that he belongs to His Royal Highness King Li?
Seeing that everyone else was only focused on eating the food, they didn't delay any longer and ate the food quickly.
Except for Xiao Ruiyan and Xiao Ruishen, it was the first time for the Xiao family to eat Yuquanlou's dishes, and they were shocked at the same time when they suddenly tasted such delicious food.
"This taste is too delicious."
"It's so fragrant and delicious."
"The taste is really good."
"It's much more delicious than the fried ones at home."
"That's right, I thought the stir-fried dishes made by the servants at home were delicious enough, but I didn't expect there to be such delicious dishes."
Xiao Hongyi saw that Dugu Huanxu hadn't spoken, and said, "You can't talk about food."
Everyone is afraid to speak.
Soon, the food on the table was almost eaten.
Xiao Rushuang said: "These dishes are really delicious, and Li Wang's fiefdom is really great. If we had known, we should have come here earlier. Staying here is really much more comfortable than in the capital."
"Hmph." Xiao Ruishen said: "I don't know who was gloating at seeing me being sent here, and I don't know who was mocking the owner of these dishes just now."
Xiao Rushuang choked, her face turned red immediately.
Xiao Hongyi said: "Okay, you go and let Xiao Er come in to clean up, and give the money by the way, I have something to talk to Mr. Xu."
Mrs. Xiao nodded, and quickly left with her children.
After a while, the private room was reserved for Dugu Huanxu, Xiao Hongyi and Xiao Ruiyan, and everyone else went downstairs.
Xiao Rushuang glanced at the box door, and said in a low voice: "Mother, who is that Mr. Xu? Why is father so polite to him? Isn't he a friend of the elder brother?"
Mrs. Xiao said: "Young Master Xu doesn't want to reveal his identity, so don't ask, and it's not convenient for me to tell. You just need to know that he is a member of His Royal Highness Li Wang. You are here, and you have to put away your eldest lady's temper." , if you offend him, your father is no longer a court minister, and he can't save you."
Xiao Rushuang curled her lips and said, "Okay."
