Chapter 1704 The interests behind the kitchen(1/2)

I have to say that this is a very successful publicity. I believe that after today, coffee will definitely become famous, and wealth will flow into Master Li's pocket exponentially. Of course, the two counties will benefit the most, and this is also the case for Master Li.

The reason why Qi personally came forward to promote coffee, otherwise, he would not be so high-profile. Li Qi believes that in this world where transportation is still semi-closed, once coffee becomes popular, the revitalization of the two counties will be just around the corner, and it is unpredictable.

.◎∑w.

But no matter what, I finally came to the Privy Councilor's Mansion for a meal, and I had to eat this dinner before leaving anyway.

After nightfall, the guests moved to the hall again, and the whole hall was brightly lit by candlelight. Because he had to take care of coffee at noon, Li Qi mainly served light Cantonese food, but there was no need to care about this at night, so dinner

It is very rich, with sour, sweet, spicy and salty dishes, and there are dishes of all kinds of flavors. Everyone who eats them will never want to return.

Except for one person, that person is Gao Yanei. He is usually the most high-profile guy, but today he has a depressed look on his face. He doesn't even move his chopsticks. He just sits there drinking, and...

"Chai Cong, eat quickly, eat quickly, you are the slowest eater here."

I saw Gao Yanei pulling Chai Cong's sleeve and saying half begging, half urging.

But this seriously affected Chai Cong's pretense, and he said angrily: "Ya Nei, please don't keep pushing me."

"Xiaojiu, eat quickly, eat quickly."

"....!"

Li Qi came over with a cup of tea and was about to toast. When he saw Gao Yanei urging them to eat quickly, he was surprised and said: "Yanei, are you in a hurry?"

Gao Yanei glanced sideways, snorted and ignored him.

Li Qi asked in astonishment: "What?"

Gao Yanei said: "Li Qi, have you been avoiding me this afternoon?"

"This --- Yanei. Why do you say that?"

Fan Shaobai said: "This guy lost everything this afternoon, so he wanted to borrow some from you to repay his losses, but he couldn't find you after searching for a long time."

If it were you, you would hide too! Li Qi looked surprised and said, "Really? I really don't know, I've been upstairs."

Gao Yanei suddenly turned around and said, "Are you going upstairs?"

"yes?"

"Why don't you take me with you?"

Gao Yanei looked at Li Qi angrily.

"Well...!"

Li Qi said angrily and humorously: "I'm just here to offer you a cup of tea as the host."

"Tea, who did you lie to?"

"You can go too, I'm not stopping you."

"If my mother hadn't been here, I would have gone a long time ago and lost everything." Gao Yanei muttered.

Li Qi patted Gao Yanei on the shoulder and said: "Yanei, there are winners and losers in this gambling, so why should you take it to heart? Losing now does not mean losing for the rest of your life. Just move back next time."

Gao Yanei nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, that's what I thought, so I asked them to eat quickly and go to my house to continue later. I just thought about it for a long time and finally figured out why it was so hard to lose today. I'm sure

It’s because I don’t have enough money today and I don’t have much confidence. When I get to my house later, I will kill everyone.”

"So this is ah!"

Li Qi wiped cold sweat and suddenly found that the red flower on the temples of this idiot was extremely delicate and beautiful. He clearly remembered it clearly. The red flower on the temples of this idiot had already drooped and had lost its color long ago. The remaining flowers were ruined.

How could Liu. be so beautiful? Could it be that human sweat can really nourish the flowers? More importantly, the flower looked familiar, so he asked: "Ya Nei, where did this flower come from?"

Gao Yanei said: "Oh, I accidentally broke the red flower I was wearing this morning, so I just broke a random one in the garden."

I just said that it looked so familiar, so I dared to ---. Li Qi looked unhappy and said: "I mean, this flower is my wife's favorite, and you just cut it off like this. Damn, did you worry about me?"

feelings.”

Gao Yanei curled his lips and said: "I lost so much money from you, it's just a flower, please don't be so stingy."

Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "I didn't win a penny from you."

Gao Yanei acted rogue and said: "Then what do you think we should do? They have already been broken."

Shameless!

Li Qi took a deep breath and thought to himself, if it weren't for Brother Qiu's sake, I would definitely ask someone to throw you out. He whispered: "Forget it, forget it, be careful when you go out later, don't let me

Madam saw it."

"Don't worry, we'll leave shortly."

Gao Yanei waved his hand carelessly and asked: "By the way, which lady are you talking about?"

Li Qi said cautiously: "Why are you asking this? Just don't see it."

Gao Yanei said: "I just want to ask if your wife likes me. If it's Shi Niang who likes it, you let me wear it, but I won't wear it anymore. If it's Feng Niangzi, hehe ---

."

Li Qi gritted his teeth and smiled: "So what?"

Gao Yanei smiled dryly and said: "Nothing, nothing."

Li Qi said angrily: "Get out of here after you finish eating."

Gao Yanei immediately said to Chai Cong and others: "Did you hear that? Did you hear that? The master has issued an order to expel guests. Why don't you eat quickly?"

omg!

Li Qi slapped his forehead. This was really his nemesis. His good mood was completely ruined. He was not even in the mood for a toast and left directly with the tea cup.

.......

.......

It was late at night, and the Privy Councilor's Mansion, which had been bustling all day, finally calmed down and fell into the embrace of the night.

But the kitchen was still brightly lit, and Li Qi was seen walking alone in the kitchen, picking up a kitchen knife from time to time, first looking at both sides, then scraping the blade with his thumb, and then picking up a plate and using his hand.

Gently rub it on...

Suddenly, a long and narrow figure suddenly shone into the kitchen. Li Qi turned around and saw a beautiful woman walking in from the outside, it was Wang Yao.

"How did you come?"

Li Qi looked at Wang Yao in surprise.

Wang Yao smiled and said: "Qiniang and the others were playing mahjong. I had nothing to do, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect you to be here."

Li Qi wondered: "It seems like you expected me to be here."

"You can say that." Wang Yao smiled softly: "In the past, every time you finished cooking, you would come to the kitchen and stay for half an hour. I didn't expect that this habit has not changed yet."

Li Qi snorted and said, "I didn't expect that you would discover this habit of mine."

"It doesn't seem hard to find."

Wang Yao smiled and said: "It's just that I didn't expect that now that you are the Privy Councilor, you would still be so nostalgic for the kitchen."

Li Qi sighed softly, shook his head and said, "I can't say I'm nostalgic. I've just developed a habit since I was a child. If I don't come to see you, I always feel like there's something unfinished."

Wang Yao asked with a hint of curiosity: "A habit developed since childhood?"

Li Qi nodded and said: "When my father taught me cooking when I was a child, he always used force to force me to clean the kitchen. What's more terrible is that he would make surprise inspections. If the kitchen was not cleaned, the consequences would be really serious."

Wang Yao's face looked a little strange and said: "Oppression by force? I thought you had liked cooking since you were a child. You came here just to find peace. After all, there are too many disturbances in the outside world. People like Bachelor Su and others will Choose to go sightseeing and relax yourself.”

Li Qi smiled and said: "So you think I just turned the beautiful mountains and rivers into a kitchen?"

Wang Yao nodded.

"You're only half right."

Li Qi smiled and said: "I have not been fond of cooking since I was a child, which is funny to say. In fact, I hated the kitchen very much when I was a child. I even wanted to burn down the kitchen at home."

This surprised Wang Yao. She thought Li Qi liked cooking very much, and asked in surprise: "Why is this?"

Li Qidao: "Have you ever heard of a saying? Where there is oppression, there is resistance."

Wang Yao shook her head gently.

Li Qidao: "I have been learning cooking since I was four or five years old. I know what I know at that age. It must have been requested by my parents. Like Xiaoliuzi, the first thing I learned was to clean the kitchen, including washing dishes. So every time When I saw my father sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and taking a nap, and I was faced with a pile of dirty dishes and chopsticks, I wanted to set the kitchen on fire."

"Four or five years old?"

Wang Yao said with pity: "That's too young."

"Who says it's not true?" Li Qi said, "I also resisted and deliberately smashed the bowls at home to pieces."

Wang Yao smiled and said: "Then you are too naughty."

Li Qi chuckled: "I remember that my father did not use such warm words to describe me at that time. He scolded me for being an unfilial son."

Wang Yao said curiously: "This doesn't seem to have much to do with being unfilial."

Li Qidao: "I thought so too at the time, but after listening to my father's explanation, I felt that this was what happened."

"Is this what your father explained again?"
