Chapter 6313 Aunt
Yang Yongjin nodded repeatedly, "What the third uncle said is absolutely true. It is necessary. If she doesn't nod, I won't care even if the son of a wealthy family has gold and silver in his family!"
< br>These words also hit Cao Bamei's mind, and the eyes she looked at Yang Yongjin softened a little.
"Uncle Third, when do you think you can arrange for the two children to meet again?"
Cao Bamei said again, "Of course, I'm not anxious to get them married immediately or anything like that. "Xiuxiu is still young, only fourteen, so I have to stay until sixteen before she can consider getting married."
"I am anxious for them to meet because I want Xiuxiu to see how each other is like, so that we can get more familiar with each other during the next contact."
Yang Huazhong understands what Cao Bamei means, and should waste more time before getting married. It is better to understand the other person than to rush into the marriage only to discover the other person's faults one after another, and end up with a broken family.
"Well, later I will think of a way to arrange a dinner, invite more people over for dinner, and then let the two young people meet quietly and say a few words."
"Okay, okay, then the third uncle has to worry about it. The money for the food and drinks is mine!" Yang Yongjin patted his chest and said boldly.
Cao Bamei nodded repeatedly, "That's right, let's do it. We can't ask Third Uncle for your trouble and money."
Yang Huazhong looked at the two couples and nodded with a smile, "It's easy to talk about. It's just these two days. Once the arrangements are made, it won't delay Yongjin's return to the restaurant."
......
Li Jia and Li Yi After the brothers had eaten and drank, they had a pleasant conversation with Lao Yang's family. They felt that this matter was over, so they returned to Lijia Village with satisfaction.
Li Wei went to help at the beef vermicelli shop owned by his aunt in the town.
The past two days have coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival. My aunt and uncle did not go back to their hometown in Fenglin Town to celebrate the festival. Instead, they continued to guard this small shop for their livelihood.
As evening approached, the store was a little busy, and Li Wei's aunt didn't bother to ask what Li Wei was doing in town today, so she woke Li Wei to work first.
We were busy from the time when the sun turned west to the time when the lanterns were turned on. The lanterns were hung high in the store, and we continued to work for nearly two hours, until most of the shops on the street outside were closed and the last customer was sent away. , Li Wei helped his uncle move the wooden boards piece by piece to the door to install it as a solid wooden door, and then hung up a sign with the word "Closed" before sitting back in the store.
"Talk to your aunt, I'm going back to the backyard to sleep first." The uncle patted Li Wei on the shoulder and turned to the backyard.
My aunt brought out a steaming bowl of beef vermicelli soup from the small kitchen at the back of the dining hall and placed it in front of Li Wei.
circles of white and pink are coiled neatly and orderly in a large bowl, with a layer of thickly cut beef spread on top. The vermilion beef is sandwiched with crystal clear beef tendons, dotted with bright red Chili noodles and green coriander foam.
"Eat the poached eggs first. My aunt's latest skill is called sugar-poached eggs. Try it."
My aunt sat down opposite Li Wei, pointed to the poached eggs on the top of the bowl and said with a smile. .
Li Wei was very stuffed after eating at Tianxianglou at noon. He came to the beef vermicelli shop with burps.
After working for a few hours, I have already digested everything, and I am already hungry.
I secretly took a few sips of the beef soup left in the guest's bowl by clearing away the dishes for the guest. Tsk, tsk, it tastes so good!
At this moment, there is a big bowl of beef and poached egg vermicelli in front of me. It looks really good. It’s even prettier than that girl named Mianmian. Not only does it look good, it also fills my stomach!
Li Wei responded to his aunt, picked up the chopsticks and buried his head in it. He ate so hard that his cheeks bulged from chewing. The whole shop was filled with the sound of him smashing his mouth and trying to swallow. .
My aunt folded her hands on the table and watched with a smile as her nephew ate every drop of the bowl. The sense of accomplishment in his eyes was like looking at a pet that had been eaten. The biggest characteristic of this nephew since he was a child is that he has a large appetite and is not picky about what he eats.
When you have no appetite, watching him eat will make you feel good.
I eat more, have more strength, and have a relatively gentle temper. I can do some chores in the store and do things around. Since I am a relative, I don’t need any wages. I can only take care of a few meals and drinks. Calculating this...it’s still pretty good.
"Sigh..."
Li Wei touched his round belly, opened his mouth and burped loudly, it felt so good!
My aunt handed over a bowl of tea with a smile: "Here, drink some tea to go away the spiciness."
"Okay!"
Li Wei felt much more comfortable spending time with his aunt. He picked up the tea bowl and drank heavily, raising his neck and slurping.
"You kid, you haven't changed at all since you were a child. You eat and drink as if you were fighting." My aunt teased with a smile.
Li Wei didn't care. After drinking one bowl, he added another bowl for himself. This time, he held it in his hand and drank it slowly.
"Now that I have some free time, let's talk to my aunt about what you, your uncle and your father are doing in town today?"
When asked about this, Li Wei's face turned slightly He blushed, lowered his eyes and smiled: "I won't tell you."
My aunt said angrily: "You brat, you just ate my beef and poached eggs, why don't you say sweet words to your aunt? Hurry up, or you will spit it out!"
"Hey, hey, Auntie, don’t scold me, I’ll tell you what I said.”
Li Wei smiled and told the woman in front of him about the marriage.
"Oh, so you are going to be the son-in-law of the old Yang family in Changping Village soon? Tsk tsk, the old Yang family is a big family. The number one scholar, the general, and the big emperor merchants all belong to the old Yang family. Yes, if you marry a daughter of the old Yang family, won’t you be related to those big shots in the future?”
Li Wei corrected his aunt: "Aunt, the girl my father and uncle want to help me marry is the eldest granddaughter of the old Yang family, the niece of the general's wife, and my future father-in-law is Mrs. Luo and the number one scholar. Lang’s cousin, his father-in-law is now managing Tianxiang Tower in Wanghai County.”
"Of course I know about Tianxiang Tower. There is also a Tianxiang Tower in our town. I heard that they all belong to Mrs. Luo!" my aunt exclaimed excitedly.
Li Wei corrected again: "Huguang County, Qing'an County, and several towns in the south have branches of Tianxiang Restaurant. I heard my father-in-law say at the wine table today that this is a chain restaurant. "
My aunt nodded repeatedly, her eyes gleaming as she listened.
"Xiaowei, your father has been ignorant all his life and has always listened to your uncle's arrangements. When your uncle asked him to go east, he didn't dare to go west. I didn't expect that he really did a great thing for you this time. Ah!”
"Getting married to the old Yang family is a pie-in-the-sky good thing. It makes people jealous. Tell your aunt quickly what that girl named Xiuxiu looks like? Does she have the temper of Miss Jiao? ”
"Huh? This..." Li Wei's expression became a little strange.
