The noodle soup was chewy and sour, and then a spoonful of boiled old hen was poured over it, coupled with a handful of chilli, it was simply a delicacy. It was a hundred times more delicious than the Mount Gong colourful chicken that Li Muyang ate with Master Xiahou Qianbai at Starry Sky Academy.
It was the familiar recipe, and the familiar taste.
How long Li Muyang had left Jiangnan was how long he had been away from his mother, and how long he had been away from this noodle soup.
With one bite, Li Muyang felt tears welling up in his eyes.
When he was outside, he found that he had grown up a lot, matured a lot. But once he returned to his parents and family, he instantly became a child who would forever be attached to them.
"Muyang, eat more." Luo Chi looked lovingly at Li Muyang gulping down the noodle soup, constantly urging him to eat more, and did not even have time to take a bite of her own noodle soup.
"Yes." Li Muyang repeatedly nodded. "It's delicious. Mother, you should eat some too. "
"Okay. I'll eat too. "Luo Chi was grinning from ear to ear. The day before she was bedridden, but upon learning that her son was back, she instantly became energetic. A son is a mother's biggest physical and mental pillar.
Li Yan indifferently pushed over the roasted meat pancake he had bought, saying in a low voice: "This is the roasted meat pancake from Wang Er Fatty's house in West city, it is said to be a century-old shop in Tiandu, when I went there was a long queue."
Luo Chi glared at Li Yan, pushing the roasted meat pancake away. "Our son's bowl of noodle soup has not been finished, how can you let him eat food bought from outside? Are those things healthy? Are they as oily as the noodle soup I made? "
"This — —" Li Yan stammered. "Didn't you tell me to buy it?"
"Leave it first. Wait for our son to eat two bowls of noodle soup before he eats your roasted meat pancake. I made a big pot of noodle soup, if he doesn't eat it are you going to eat it? "
"— —"
Li Yan wanted to say something. However, when he saw the look in his wife's eyes, he tactfully shut his mouth.
Li Muyang looked at his father sympathetically. The father and son looked at each other, and there was an indescribable bitter smile on their faces.
After washing up, Li Shinian grabbed a barbecued meat pie and stuffed it into his mouth. Cheeks puffed up, he chewed and said to his father, Li Yan, "Barbecued meat pies are my favorite. Also, Wang Er Fatty's family's barbecued meat pancakes are different from the others, it's not easy to buy … Father, this barbecued meat pancake is really delicious. "
Li Yan was very happy. He looked at his daughter and said with pity, "Eat more if you like it. I've lost weight recently. "
"You look better when you're thinner." Li Shinian swallowed the meat pie in his mouth, made a cute expression, and said, "Does it look good?"
Li Yan nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes. It looked good. My daughter looks good no matter what. "
Luo Chi put a bowl of steaming noodle soup in front of Li Shinian and said, "No matter how good you look, you have to give me this noodle soup."
"I can't eat it." Li Shinian looked bitter. "Besides, sister Xiaoxin will come to pick me up in a while. We have to go to Thousand Buddha Temple to pray for brother. She doesn't know that brother has come back safely. "
"Thousand Buddha Temple?" Li Muyang looked up at Li Shinian and said, "You want to go to Thousand Buddha Temple?"
"Yes." Li Shinian nodded and said. "It was decided yesterday, for some heartless person. But it's really strange. We were going to ask Bodhisattva to bless your safe return, but we didn't expect you to come back safely that night. In this case, do we still want to go to Thousand Buddha Temple? Is this Bodhisattva efficacious or not? "
Pa!
Li Shinian's forehead was hit.
Luo Chi hurriedly explained to Bodhisattva, "Child's words carry no harm. Child's words carry no harm. Child's words are nonsense, Bodhisattva don't blame. "
She then turned around and stared angrily at Li Shinian, saying, "Shinian, how can you talk nonsense? Of course Bodhisattva is efficacious, she must have heard our voices, so she sent your brother back safe and sound. We still have to go to Thousand Buddha Temple, we have made a sincere vow to Bodhisattva, how can we deceive Bodhisattva? "
Li Shinian covered his head that had been hit by chopsticks, discontentedly rolled his eyes at a certain guy who was secretly laughing at his misfortune. "I didn't say I won't go. I was just a little curious — — "
Li Shinian rolled his eyes and said, "Besides, since brother is back, it proves that Bodhisattva has appeared. So, as the person involved, does he need to go with us to Thousand Buddha Temple to say thank you to Bodhisattva? "
Luo Chi suddenly said awkwardly, "That's true. Muyang has returned safely, he should go to Thousand Buddha Temple to burn incense and pay his vow. How about, Muyang go with your sister to Thousand Buddha Temple? "
"It's not convenient." Li Yan, who had been silent all this time, spoke up to stop her. "Muyang's identity is too sensitive, and he has a blood feud with the Cui family. Shinian is going to Thousand Buddha Temple with the young miss of the Cui family, so naturally there will be people around to protect him. If the Cui family knew that Muyang has returned safely, then they will certainly kill him. At that time, wouldn't Muyang be in danger again? "
"That's true." Luo Chi was taken aback. "Then don't go. We just need to sincerely be grateful in our hearts, Bodhisattva knows everything, he will understand our difficulties. Besides, Shinian, go and help your brother explain, let Bodhisattva appreciate our kindness. "
Li Shinian pursed his lips. "If Bodhisattva is omniscient and omnipotent. If Brother goes to pay his vow, Bodhisattva will surely bless Brother safe and sound. "
"Hey, you little girl — —" Luo Chi raised her chopsticks to hit Shinian again.
Li Shinian hurriedly ran away, yelling: "You're favoring one and discriminating against the other. Before Brother came back, I was the most obedient and sensible daughter in the world, you just listen to me. Brother just came back, you've already scolded me several times, and you still want to hit me — — "
Luo Chi pointed to the bowl of noodles on the table. "Hurry sit down and eat. If you can't finish, I'll teach you a lesson. "
"— —"
The family had just put down their bowls of food, when there was a knock on the door.
Li Shinian ran over to open the door, saw Lu Qingming standing at the door, and very respectfully bowed: "Uncle Lu good morning, Uncle Lu, have you eaten?"
Lu Qingming had seen Li Shinian the last time he came back, and was very fond of this beautiful and intelligent little girl. And because of some special reasons, no one in the Lu Family regarded her as the daughter of a servant, and her status was almost equal to the Miss of the Lu Family.
"I've eaten." Lu Qingming said with a smile. "Why did Shinian get up so early today? Didn't you always stay up until the sun rose high in the sky? "
"Uncle Lu is making fun of me." Li Shinian said with a red face. She did have the habit of staying in bed, which beautiful girl did not have the habit of staying in bed? But she did not expect this matter to reach Lu Qingming's ears.
"Hahaha — —" Lu Qingming was in a very good mood. "It's not a bad thing to stay in bed. The two guys in my family also like to stay in bed. I can't even wake them up in the morning. "
Hearing the noise outside, Li Yan, Luo Chi and Li Muyang were already alarmed.
Although the head of the Lu Family was the Lu grandfather Lu Xingkong, but Lu Qingming also had a high position of power. He was already the governor of a province in his prime, and if he continued to rise, his position would not necessarily be much lower than his father.
Besides, whether they admit it or not, Lu Qingming was Li Muyang's biological father after all. This was what made Li Yan and Luo Chi the most painful and tangled point.
Li Yan was now working in the Lu Residence, belonging to a small steward under the main housekeeper, and was also responsible for a lot of affairs.
When the young master arrived, he hurriedly bowed and said: "Young master, if you have something to say you can just tell me, why did you come in person?"
Li Yan used to be Gongsun Yu's driver, and Luo Chi was Gongsun Yu's servant. At that time, they called Lu Qingming and Gongsun Yu young master and miss. This time, they still used the same address as before.
Lu Qingming hurriedly helped Li Yan up, and said in a reproachful tone: "Li Yan, why are you becoming more and more polite? We can be considered as old friends for decades. From now on, we will call each other friends, and these empty formalities can be dispensed with. "
Li Yan foolishly smiled, not knowing how to respond to Lu Qingming's initiative.
Moreover, he was extremely puzzled, what happened that made the governor of a province, the young master of the Lu Family, come to the door of his small courtyard early in the morning and knock on the door?
"He's just a blockhead, Young Master, don't lower yourself to his level." Luo Chi said with a smile. "Young Master, please come in. There's noodle soup at home, would Young Master like to eat a bowl? "
"Noodle soup?" Lu Qingming asked curiously.
"Yes, my brother likes to eat it the most." Li Shinian said with a smile. "He likes to eat noodle soup since he was a child. He just came back last night, and my mother got up early in the morning to make it for him."
"Then give me a bowl." Lu Qingming said with a smile. "It sounds fresh, it should be good to eat."
"… …"
Li Yan and Luo Chi exchanged a glance, the uneasiness in their hearts grew stronger.
Although the Lu Family had treated them well, but when did the masters of the Lu Family come to their house for a meal? If this matter were to spread out, they would most likely become the object of envy and enticement of countless people.
They had a hunch that Lu Qingming came for Li Muyang, for their son.
Are they ready to lay their cards on the table?
"I'm going to heat up the noodle soup." Luo Chi said with a smile, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart.
Li Yan also wanted to go down and discuss with his wife, but Lu Qingming was at the side, he, as the head of the family, had to stay behind to receive them.
Lu Qingming came into the room and sat down, looking at Li Muyang and said, "Muyang, did you sleep well last night?"
"I slept very well." Li Muyang said with a smile. "I fell asleep after lying in bed, and I felt refreshed after waking up. The bed at home is the best to sleep. "
"That's good." Lu Qingming said with a smile. "I'll take you to see something in a while, you'll definitely like it."
Li Muyang hurriedly refused, "Uncle Lu, although it's a gift from an elder, I dare not refuse, but you've already given me too many things — —"
Li Yan couldn't sit still, feeling that his son was about to be bribed.
To snatch his son from Lu Qingming, he must have the courage and — — financial resources?
