Chapter 189 The King of Flattery
Chapter 189 The King of Flattery
"Tongmu, is this girl the sister Fubao you mentioned? Wow, she is so pretty. If you don't know her, you might think she is a girl from Guanyin's seat who has come to the mortal world. I'm sure she will be the most beautiful girl in Lianshan Town when she grows up.
If I had such a sister, I would study hard and pass the imperial examination to be her support. Only the top scholar can match her beauty. Tongmu, you must study hard. "
Meng Bujiu's praise instantly conquered Jiang Fubao.
"Hey, am I really that good-looking?"
Jiang Fubao smiled foolishly.
My shoulders started shaking.
Her round belly bounced several times because of this.
"Yes, she is beautiful, especially beautiful. Sister Fubao is round and plump, with fair and beautiful skin. If she grows up to be thinner, she will be as beautiful as a fairy."
Meng Bujiu told lies without blinking.
Tongmu sister’s facial features are indeed beautiful.
But...
Too fat.
But it's normal for children to be a little fat.
But it was the first time he saw such a fat girl.
"Do you want to eat barbecue?" Jiang Siyin was happier than Jiang Fubao when his daughter was praised.
He held up the skewers of meat in his hand, ready to serve to the guests.
I wanted to give it to Meng Bujiu to eat.
"This is too expensive, so we won't eat it. Let's just try the meal grandma cooked for lunch. Tongmu, is this noble young man with an extraordinary temperament and handsome face your fourth uncle? Grandma is really amazing. The appearance of her son has surpassed that of the third place winner. I have only seen him in paintings. This is really an eye-opener."
This time the praise is sincere.
Meng Bujiu was stunned the moment he saw Jiang Siyin.
A man from a farmer's family.
He is so handsome.
Could it be that Grandma Tongmu was really stunningly beautiful when she was young?
Then why do Tongmu's father and second uncle look so horrible?
Meng Bujiu was making random guesses in his mind.
"Haha, Siyin looks like Tongmu's grandfather, but it has nothing to do with me. Come, drink mung bean soup."
Zhang Jinlan explained.
Meng Bujiu suddenly realized.
Yes.
No wonder the Jiang brothers look so different.
Sister Fubao and Tongmu don’t seem like a family either.
It turns out that some look like dad, and some look a bit like mom.
"That's enough. If you keep pretending, you'll see if I bring you here next time." Jiang Tongmu threatened the two in a low voice with gritted teeth.
"Your family is my family. What's wrong with me praising my family? If it really doesn't work, you can go to my house tomorrow and praise my grandfather too." Meng Bujiu said without blushing.
"That's right. You can come to my house too. I'll ask my dad to set up a feast for you. You can enjoy the meal and praise the food as much as you can. I'm not as stingy as you. You get jealous when I praise you. Why, are you jealous when you see your grandma serving us mung bean soup? You're such a jealous person. Oh my, your face is red with anger~"
Kong Mingxue teased him.
The eyes of the three men were like sharp swords, and there was no distinction between winners and losers in the fight.
Jiang Fubao at this time.
He was lying by the well, his face in his hands, admiring her stunning beauty.
"Daddy, why do I feel like I've gained a lot of weight?"
Jiang Fubao looked at himself on the water and his face seemed to have grown bigger.
"Nonsense, how can you be fat? Our Fubao has obviously lost weight. Daddy will grill you some skewers of mutton at noon so that you can have a good nourishment! I'll secretly sprinkle some chili powder on you, but don't tell your grandma."
Jiang Siyin quickly denied it and tempted his daughter with delicious food.
"Okay, I won't tell grandma. I'll eat it secretly."
When Jiang Fubao heard the word "lamb skewers", he forgot all about whether they were fat or not.
Noon.
Except for Jiang Dahe and Jiang Tongjin who were busy in front of the shop, everyone sat together in the backyard eating lunch.
Each person had a bowl of cold noodles because we wanted to show off our cooking skills.
Zhang Jinlan also added a lot of things to the cold noodles, including peanuts, meat chunks, etc. She even added a lot more cucumber shreds. The taste was much better than what she had eaten before.
There were three dishes she cooked herself on the table, served with cold noodles.
Not only that, each person also gets five lamb skewers.
The meat on the skewers is five times bigger than the ones sold, and it is grilled with a sizzling oil, and it tastes so delicious.
Because I have drunk mung bean soup.
Zhang Jinlan washed the only remaining peach, cut it into two pieces, and placed them in front of Meng Bujiu and Kong Mingxue.
Of course, with my granddaughter's consent.
After all, this is what Jiang Fubao planned to eat in the afternoon.
Jiang Fubao likes them very much now.
Giving them a peach to eat is no big deal.
"Such soft peaches, sweet and juicy, so delicious. I'm afraid they are honey peaches shipped from Jiangnan. When I was a child, I went to Jiangnan with my father. The scenery there is beautiful. I took a boat and admired the scenery on the island in the middle of the lake. From time to time, I drank a sip of the local fruit drink. It was so comfortable. Unfortunately, now I live in the school every day and have never traveled far."
Meng Bujiu missed the old days a little.
He doesn't like reading.
So I'm twelve years old and I still haven't finished the game.
His biological father passed the imperial examination and became a student at the age of ten.
Every time, his grandfather would scold him for his father's talent.
Meng Bujiu became very annoyed when he thought about this.
"My father planted a peach tree for me. When it bears fruit, I will give it to Brother Bujiu to eat. I will also give you a big basket!"
Seeing that Meng Bujiu was in a low mood, Jiang Fubao changed the subject.
Soon, laughter and joy could be heard in the yard again.
"I really didn't expect that you and Tongmu were classmates and friends. If I had known earlier, I would have given you a discount when you came to eat at the shop."
After Jiang Eryong finished speaking, he slurped a mouthful of cold noodles, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.
Refined grains taste comfortable to eat.
Not irritating to the throat at all.
"No, we are all small businesses. If we always sell at a low price, how can we make any money? I just ask Second Uncle to leave us more sausages and potatoes in the morning. One portion is really not enough."
Kong Mingxue's eyes flashed.
I quickly got to the point.
That's why he came.
The grilled sausage is so delicious!
One stick is not satisfying at all.
As long as you get deeper into the Jiang family, you will be able to eat as many as you want in the future.
"Okay, will you come to eat tomorrow? If you do, I'll leave three sausages and two servings of potatoes for each of you. Is that enough?"
Jiang Eryong can still make the decision on this small matter.
"Enough, enough, enough, Second Uncle, you are so good to me. From now on, you are my real Second Uncle!"
Jiang Tongmu glanced at Kong Mingxue.
Why does this sound so familiar?
Meng Bujiu, who had a full belly, followed Kong Ming and helped with some work before leaving.
Everyone in the Jiang family likes them very much.
"Mom, you may not know, but Bujiu's grandfather is the head of a mountain! I don't know which mountain he is the head of, so let's go to that mountain when the time comes."
Jiang Eryong's words stunned Jiang Tongmu and Jiang Fubao.
"Second uncle, the one who opened our school is the headmaster. He is the most powerful person in the school! Everyone has to listen to him, including the teacher. He is not the headmaster who guards the mountain. You misunderstood."
Jiang Tongmu was speechless.
He quickly explained.
