"Everyone, please pick up your chopsticks."
After Mrs. Su finished speaking, everyone picked up their bowls and chopsticks.
As soon as Lin Yi moved his chopsticks, the woman Su Xiuer called Er Niang said to Lin Yi: "Lin Yi, you saved our Su Mansion that day. We will always be grateful. , But what you said is a little inappropriate."
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Xiu'er, who pursed her lips and gave her a charming look.
Rub, what does this mean?
This second mother has phoenix eyes, thin lips, and a good face. Although she is a bit old, she looks nothing like Su Xiuer's mother alone.
Su Can’s vision is indeed good, and Er Niang thought she must have been a romantic beauty back then.
But looking at the look in the eyes and the tone of her words, it seems that she has quite a bad temper.
"Even if you are in love with my Xiu'er, you can't say that in public, right? Our Xiu'er is still a girl, how can you say she is yours?"
< p>After saying this, not only Lin Yi blushed immediately, but Su Xiuer also blushed.A simple sentence contains too much meaning...
Chinese culture is broad and profound...
"Hey, Er Niang, what are you talking about? Well, Lin Yi was just anxious at that time, and what he said didn't count. We were all young, and I quite appreciated the hot-blooded man showing his feelings in public." Su Can said something for Lin Yi.
I bet these two are acting together?
How can you speak for yourself?
Seeing many people on the table laughing at him while eating, Lin Yi quickly lowered his head and ate the rice in the bowl without saying a word.
This meal is indeed not easy!
At this time, Su Can said: "Lin Yi, don't just eat, try the plate of chicken in front of you and see how it tastes?"
Lin Yi Mechanical In response, he quickly stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of chicken and put it into the bowl.
After taking a bite, it turned out to be quite good!
It is Lin Yi’s favorite braised braised dish with a sweet taste.
"Hmm... Not bad, it's delicious."
This is the first time Lin Yi has said something with emotion today.
Su Can chuckled and said: "Our Xiu'er knows that you like braised chicken, so she went to the kitchen early in the morning to make this dish specially. I heard Aunt Xu said that she did it just for this dish. I've been studying for several days."
"Dad!" Su Xiu'er said coquettishly, "Aunt Xu, why would I tell you anything?"
Su Can. He looked at his daughter lovingly and said, "You have never been in the kitchen before. As a father, I saw you acting strangely and couldn't go to the dining room to have a look. I have never tasted your cooking."< /p>
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Xiuer immediately stood up, picked up a piece of braised chicken and put it into Su Can's bowl.
"Dad, you should try it too."
"Oh, it's good." Su CanAfter taking a bite, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said to everyone in surprise, "I didn't expect that Xiu'er is really good at cooking chicken."
"Pfft..." Lin Yi almost spit out .
The seven aunts and eight aunts discussed it one after another.
"Xiu'er actually cooked the food herself. The sun came out from the west."
"I also want to try our Xiu'er's craftsmanship. Well, it's really delicious."
“Oh, in addition to embroidery, our embroidery children finally learned something from my daughter’s family.”
“Isn’t that right? When I was a child, I liked to practice martial arts. When I grow up, I also like to practice martial arts. Love dancing and writing, these are not what girls should do. I think a female worker and a kitchen are very suitable."
The atmosphere gradually became lively, and Lin Yi did not interfere much, so he stayed alone. Head to eat.
Someone raised a glass, and Lin Yi followed him to drink a few glasses, but he didn’t drink too much.
During the dinner, Er Niang asked Lin Yi again: "Lin Yi, what do you do at Wuyinmen on weekdays?"
Lin Yi smiled politely. , replied: "There are five doors in the Wuyin Sect. I am currently working at the fifth door. I mainly sell some medicinal wine and solve some problems for some neighbors."
Someone heard that Lin Yi He could solve some doubts and strange things, and immediately couldn't help but ask: "What weird things are there? Tell us. Have you ever encountered any ghosts, gods, demons or anything like that?"
Without waiting, Lin When Yi opened his mouth, Er Niang glared at the man and said, "I haven't finished asking yet."
The man immediately shut up and started eating.
The second mother asked again: "Does this work in Wuyinmen have an official position in the Yamen?"
Lin Yi shook his head and replied: "There is no official position. ."
The second mother pretended to be thoughtful and said, "Well, that's really a pity."
As she said that, she turned to look at Su Can and said, "Master, I remember you once said that you hope that Xiu'er's future husband will be an errand in the government office, so that we can do business more easily in the future, right?" Su Can blinked. , turned to Lin Yi and said: "Yes, I did say this before, but there is no eternal standard in this world. I think young people are good, have potential, and are willing to make progress, and that is enough. In fact, Ah, the most important thing is that our Xiu'er likes it."
At this time, Su Xiu'er also helped: "Although Brother Lin is working at Wuyinmen, he is very capable. .."
Then, Su Xiuer brought out the glove business she and Lin Yi had done together, and vividly described the business process.
In those days when Lin Xiu's gloves were the most popular, it could be said that they were popular throughout Shoulin City, and Su Can even had the idea to expand this glove business to other cities.
It can be said that Lin Xiu’s gloves business has been very successful.
"Oh, that's quite business-minded." Er Niang's tone was lukewarm. Seeing Su Can and Su Xiu'er speaking for Lin Yi together,He didn't continue to ask.
Under the questioning of others, Lin Yi finally had the opportunity to show off his good eloquence and told some strange things he had seen in the Kirigakure Gate.
Of course, the narrative is selective, otherwise there are some things that Lin Yi really can’t explain.
......
After dinner, Su Can specially called Lin Yi to the backyard.
"Lin Yi, we are no longer outsiders. Let me tell you frankly. My daughter has a decent appearance and temperament. As a father, I can tell that Xiu'er is interested in you. I don’t know if you like my Xiu’er.”
Damn, that’s so straightforward!
Before Lin Yilai came, he had long thought that one day he would face Su Can's inquiry, but the thousands of words he had prepared before had only turned into one word at this moment.
"I... like it."
Su Xiu'er, who was eavesdropping in the dark, blushed instantly, and Xiang'er beside her was even more excited than Su Xiu'er.
"Well...Xiu'er has reached the age to get married. It's not like there are other families who came to propose marriage, but none of them refused. My daughter has always told me that if she wants to get married, You must marry someone you like, so I allowed her to show up, organize some poetry club, and meet young people outside."
Lin Yi thought, it turned out that Su Can allowed Su Xiu'er to set up a poetry club. There is such a reason.
"My daughter has always set her sights higher than Xiang's. This poetry club has been running for more than a year, and I have never seen her bring any man back. To be honest, as a father, I am a little anxious."
These days, it is very common for a daughter to get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. If she is not married by her early twenties, she will be an older leftover daughter at that time.
"On that day, my father's birthday, Xiu'er invited you, which made me immediately have a strong interest in you."
When Lin Yi heard this, Go, it sounds like my father-in-law has been observing and testing himself.
Su Can continued: "Actually, this Wuyinmen has always been quite mysterious. Although outsiders classify your business as a low-level business, I don't think so. We, businessmen, Isn’t it true that I was not looked down upon by others before..."
