Chapter nine hundred and fiftieth hospitality
Zhou Xuan continued.
"Your father turned out to have another wife. He and your mother were not formal couples. But he gave birth to you first, and the next year he gave birth to your sister. Later, your father wanted to go back to Dali, but your mother refused to let him go. The two had a big quarrel, and your mother even beat him, but your father didn't fight back."
"Later, there was no way, so I had to break up. But your grandfather's tutoring was very strict. If he knew about this, he would definitely kill your mother. Your mother didn't dare to take your sister home. She had to give it to her, but she hoped that she would recognize each other in the future, and the word "subun" was stabbed on your sister's shoulders."
Azhu pondered for a while, then said with a forced smile.
"I believe the words of the young master. But it's too late today. My sister sent the young master to Mantuo Villa early tomorrow morning. Please rest for a while, and you will have dinner later."
As he said that, he took Abi's hand and retreated into the inner hall.
Zhou Xuan also knew that Ah Zhu must be in a state of peace now, so he did not tell the story of her three brothers and sisters together. When her mood eases tomorrow, she will say it out again.
Half an hour passed, a male servant came out and said.
"Miss Azhu invites three of you to the 'Tingyuju' for dinner."
Zhou Xuan said.
"Thank you then."
He called Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling and followed the man's servant. He walked windingly and twists and turns through the path of pebbles, walked around several rocks, flowers and trees, and came to the waterside. He saw a small boat parked under the willow tree. The man's servant pointed to a wooden house with windows on all sides in the middle of the water, and said.
“It’s right there.”
Zhou Xuan and others stepped into the boat, and the servant rowed the boat towards the hut and arrived in a moment.
Zhou Xuan walked from the pine wood staircase to the door of "Tingyuju" and saw Azhu and Abi standing waiting for the guests.
Abi smiled slightly, turned to Zhou Xuan and said.
"The three of you are here, it's not a good thing. You can only invite you to drink a glass of water and drink some local freshness from Jiangnan."
Four people were invited to take the seat now, and she and Azhu sat down with the Prime Minister.
Zhou Xuan saw that the "Tingyuju" was covered with water on all sides. He looked out from the window and saw the smoke and waves on the lake. When he turned around, he saw that the cups and plates on the table were exquisite and fine, and he knew that Azhu and Abi were really entertaining.
After a while, the man served fruits and snacks. White shrimps, lotus leaves and winter bamboo shoot soup, cherry pickled ham, Longjing vegetable leaves and chicken diced rice, etc. Each dish is very distinctive. The fish, shrimp and meat are mixed with fresh petals and fruits. The color is beautiful and has a unique natural fragrance.
Zhou Xuan tried a few chopsticks of each dish, and thought that all these dishes were delicious and refreshing, so he praised.
"With such mountains and rivers, there are such people. With such people, there are such intelligence and talent to make such elegant dishes."
Azhu said with a smile.
"Are you guess I made it or Abi?"
Zhou Xuan said.
"This cherry ham, plum blossom duck, and fragrant red. I think it was made by Miss Azhu. This lotus leaf winter bamboo shoot soup, jade fish balls, green and fresh, should be made by Miss Abi."
Azhu clapped his hands and smiled.
"Young Master is indeed a magical charlatan."
Then he changed his subject and said in a teasing manner.
"The young master calculated my background for me, but the little girl had no choice but to give Abi to you and express her gratitude."
Abi patted Azhu and then smiled unwillingly.
"Azhu, you have received the kindness of your son, why did you let me pay off the debt? If you have any instructions, we should do our best. But I think you can only repay you with your own kindness."
Azhu Dao.
"Oh, you can please others as soon as you open your mouth. No wonder everyone says you are good or bad."
