Chapter 235 Showdown

On the pear blossom and wood dining table, there was a sumptuous meat and vegetable banquet. I was silently asked Mr. Yin to use it first. The old man hesitated for a moment, but finally chose a piece of mushroom.

After a moment, he smiled silently and said, "Why does Shi Bo always choose some mushroom dishes, but the others are not suitable for the taste?"

Mr. Yin shook his head and smiled, "I know it too. Since I got sick last winter, my daughter has told me to avoid eating meat. It has been very hard for her to run a family, but she can't worry about me anymore."

Silent and mysteriously smiled, "Of course I won't harm you. Uncle might as well try it and see what the mystery is in this dish?"

He said this, and Mr. Yin couldn't refuse any more... In fact, he didn't want to refuse any more. The old man smiled and said, "Then just eat a chopstick." He thought to himself, "You have to find a chewy one." He picked up a chopstick and ham, sniffed it first and then slowly delivered it to his mouth. Before he could eat it, he was already full of enjoyment.

After sucking all the juice on the ham, I started chewing it carefully, and kept nodding and said, "It tastes very good, it's really good." I looked at Master Yin with a silent smile, without saying a word.

After a while, Mr. Yin ate the slice of ham and smacked his lips and said, "Where is this ham from? Does it taste very unique?"

Silent smiled and said, "What do you think?"

"It's neither Jinhua nor Xuanwei," the old man shook his head and said, "It's more refreshing in taste."

"Then you try it again." Chen Jing smiled.

"Then try it again?" Master Yin agreed and picked up another chopstick and tasted it carefully. This time he finally got a different taste: "The aftertaste is longer and fragrant and appetizing, making people want to eat it again after eating it." As he said, he said anxiously: "Nephew, don't keep it aside, tell my uncle where the ham is."

He smiled silently and said, "Actually, this is not made of meat at all, it is called vegetarian ham." He said, "I still expect my uncle to live a hundred years old, how can I make you break the rules?"

Mr. Yin widened his eyes and said, "Su ham?" He then picked up a few chopsticks and put them in his mouth, but he still didn't eat them out of the way. He had to ask, "What is this made of?"

He smiled silently and said, "Because you know that you only eat vegetarian meals, I specially invited the monk from Lingyin Temple to make this vegetarian ham. The main ingredients are braised tofu and peanuts."

"Can you chew the taste of ham with dried tofu and peanuts?" Mr. Yin said, looking at the plate of ham that is difficult to tell whether it is true or not.

"That's right." Silently said, "The table is actually full of vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck, vegetarian fish, cooked in vegetarian oil, and the imitation is only the form. In fact, they are all replaced by tofu, gluten, bean curd or other bean products. The taste is similar to the authentic ones, so you can enjoy it with confidence."

Master Yin picked up a piece of chicken that was obviously chicken and couldn't believe it: "Do you think this is a vegetarian chicken?"

"In fact, it is made by tying the tofu skin tightly, boiling it and frying it in vegetarian oil, and then stir-frying it with a little stir-frying." As he said that, he also picked up a chopstick of vegetarian chicken and said leisurely: "People often say, 'You can't believe it easily if you don't see things, you can't believe it easily'. In fact, this is not enough, because the truth of the matter is often far from the appearance. If you rely solely on hearsays and subjective conjectures, you will often make mistakes in judgments, which is wrong. Just like these vegetarian chicken vegetarian hams, you must taste them yourself to know the authenticity."

Mr. Yin was a little confused and smiled and said, "Nephew, you seem to have something in your words."

沉默笑笑道:“我不过是有感而发罢了.”说着叹口气道:“被人误会的滋味真是太难受了.”

殷老爷奇怪笑道:“像贤侄这样家世清华,贵不可言的公子,旁人巴结还来不及,谁敢误会你呢?”

沉默脸上浮起淡淡的忧伤道:“我未来的岳父.”

Mr. Yin's heart suddenly sank. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to betroth his daughter to this "Qu Qin". Unexpectedly, the hope would be shattered under the chair. Mr. Shen immediately lost his appetite. But he was relieved in the end... A young man with outstanding marriage in all aspects like him must have broken through the threshold for the proposal. How could he not have been engaged yet?

想到这,老头子不由酸酸道:“你那老丈人真是身在福中不知福,这么好的贤婿却要往外推.”

沉默摇头正色道:“岳父也是父,小侄不敢妄评.”

When Mr. Yin heard that he respected his future father-in-law so much, he felt even more disgusted, so he asked, "What are the conflicts between your father-in-law and son-in-law? If it is convenient, you might as well talk to me and ask the old man to help you come up with an idea." But he thought to himself, "It's best to be able to break it up."

沉默听了叹口气,悠悠道:“是这么一回事儿,我那岳父大人,误会我学了陈世美,看上人家官宦人家的女儿,便背叛他的女儿了.”

“那你到底干没干陈世美那种事呢?”殷老爷问道.

“当然没有了.”沉默两手一摊,指天发誓道:“我敢对天发誓,从没做过对不起他女儿的事情,如有半句谎言,教我天打雷劈,不得好死.”

This vow is heavy enough. Master Yin nodded and said, "It seems that your future father-in-law misunderstood you." He said, "Uncle, I am a veteran. I know that many conflicts are often caused by misunderstandings. If you explain the misunderstanding clearly, the contradiction will be resolved. If you don't explain, the misunderstanding will become deeper and deeper, and the contradiction will become heavier."

“可他能听我解释吗?”沉默叹口气道:“我那位老泰山性子急,身体又不好,一听到我的名字就气不打一处来,这让我真不知如何是好.”

“不要紧,办法总比困难多,”殷老爷笑着安慰道:“老人吗,还是希望子女好的,只要你没有对不起人家闺女,相信他一定会原谅你的.”

Chen Silent said happily: "Can you really forgive me?"

"Of course." Mr. Yin laughed and said, "We have been together for a while. We have gone to your future. I am not aware of your personality. I still know who your daughter has followed you and is lucky. Why do you have to ruin your daughter's life for some face and loyalty?"

“如果换成是您,您也会原谅吗?”沉默定定望着他道.

殷老爷点头笑道:“当然了,若是我能有你这么个光耀门庭的好女婿,定是要乐得合不拢嘴了!”

话音未落,便见沉默一撩衣袍,起身施以大礼道:“小婿给岳父大人请罪了.”说完就俯身不起.

看着沉默给自己跪下了,殷老爷有些手足无措道:“贤侄,给我下跪也没用,你得找你那老岳父去.”

Chen Si raised his head and said seriously: "You are my father-in-law, I am just silent and quiet."

"What? Aren't you Qiu Qin?" Master Yin was shocked and said, "When did Qiu Qin become silent?"

"I am Chen Ji who is proposing to marry him." Chen Ji took a deep breath and said, "The surname is Chen, the name is Mo, and the name is Zhu Yan. He once survived the difficult danger with Ruohan and supported each other. Therefore, he decided to have three lives. He was not married, and he would not marry him. We had already made an appointment. After she was over, I would invite my father to come to propose marriage. But I knew that the emperor's order was difficult to violate, so I had to inspect Zhejiang. I was delayed because of the Japanese and pirates, and finally returned to Shaoxing after several months. Only then did I hear that an official from the neighboring county had used despicable means to cheat his marriage and wanted to betroth his daughter to me."

Fearing that Master Yin would not let him finish speaking, he took another breath in silence and hurriedly continued: "As soon as I told my father, he also said that he would never let Miss Yin down. He stopped preparing for the engagement ceremony and asked me to go to your house to apologize. Who knew that you had left Shaoxing..."

Mr. Yin felt a little dizzy. He held his head and stayed for a long time before he inserted his words: "Is this fake Qiu Qin false? Is silence true?"

"Silence is true, and proposals are true. Because I am worried that you can't accept it, I dare not meet with my real name, so I used the pseudonym "Quqin" to "proposal". My son-in-law is ridiculous. Please forgive me if my father-in-law." Chen Si stood up and said, "But I went through so much trouble to find you, just to clarify the misunderstanding and formally ask you for marriage."

Mr. Yin finally figured it out. It turned out that this kid had been fooling himself. He couldn't help but say angrily: "It's outrageous. You are so... you are so angry!"

He whispered silently, "Aren't you afraid that you will always not give me a chance to speak?"

Mr. Yin snorted angrily: "You speak kindly, your words are good, you are not a good person!" After starting, after holding on for a winter, you can no longer suppress it, and turn into swear words, rumbling like a flood.

He was silent and let him scold him, and he didn't say anything but his face. Seeing the old man scolding him so hard that he even served him tea, he made a punching bag very competently.

Mr. Yin finally scolded him and sat there panting, breathing heavily, and said in a silent face: "My father-in-law..."

"Who is your father-in-law? Have you been hired? Did I agree?" Mr. Yin said angrily.

After hearing this silently, he couldn't help but feel excited: "Zhong, I'll write a letter to my father and ask him to prepare a betrothal gift..."

"Don't." Mr. Yin waved his hand and said, "Although our Yin family is not a wealthy family, my daughter is a peerless pearl, much better than the princesses in this world," he said, looking silent and said, "Do you agree with this?"
