Dai 'er and Ang Lee's unusual performance left everyone dumbfounded. They didn't understand what was going on, and only a few people who knew the story of Ang Lee and Dai' er knew what they were doing.
Old man Xianyu gently stroked his beard with a satisfied expression. Although Dai 'er didn't even look at him, this didn't hinder the old man's inner happiness. He was old, and his interest in beauties was getting smaller and smaller. It didn't matter whether the little beauty paid attention to him or not. As long as he could make Ang Lee happy and make the banquet lively, his goal would be achieved. His prestige would be well consolidated, and other things weren't particularly important.
Dai 'er's delicate face looked even more charming under the translucent veil. This veil was light pink, and could slightly make up for Dai' er's slightly pale face. It made Dai 'er look healthier and more beautiful, and also made Ang Lee even more tempted. As long as a beauty was in front of him, who wouldn't be tempted?
"Dai 'er, you're really beautiful tonight."
Ang Lee said.
Dai 'er smiled slightly and didn't answer. She continued to twist her waist around Ang Lee until the song and dance ended. Then, she helped Ang Lee back to his seat.
The rest of the little Hu girls all left, but Dai 'er took the initiative to stay. She didn't have any intention of leaving.
"Hahaha! This little Hu girl didn't even look at this marshal! I'm old, I'm old. I'm not as handsome as I was when I was young. "
Old man Xianyu said self-deprecatingly.
In fact, even when he was young, old man Xianyu's appearance couldn't be considered handsome. He was a person who didn't look good. It wasn't because he was old, but because he wasn't good-looking. The older he got, the uglier he became.
Although old man Xianyu wasn't handsome when he was young, and everyone present knew that, no one dared to expose him in public. Everyone had to give old man Xianyu face, and no one dared to speak carelessly.
"Yes! Yes! Marshal Jie's elegance when he was young … "
"When Marshal Jie was young …"
The group of merchants did not let go of this opportunity to suck up to him. They said a lot of flattery, but none of it was true.
Those who could flatter Old Man Xianyu were those who were sitting nearby, and their words could be heard by Xianyu. As for the Yang brothers who were sitting further away, they didn't have the intention to flatter him.
They were more concerned about the relationship between Little Hu Ji and Ang Lee. From the interaction between Little Hu Ji and Ang Lee, they could tell that their relationship was not ordinary. They were both old men, so they could tell at a glance.
Ang Lee had just arrived in Yizhou City, but he was already familiar with Little Hu Ji so quickly. This seemed to indicate that Ang Lee was an expert in flirting, and this type of person rarely had true feelings. As a result, their family's Third Lady would suffer a great loss. The most important thing was that Ang Lee's promise to Third Lady might just be a casual remark. As a result, their plan would be somewhat affected.
"Big Brother, I think Little Hu Ji and Assistant Minister Li seem to be very close! This is too intimate. "
The Patriarch's younger brother said.
The Patriarch nodded and said, "I can also see that. Maybe they knew each other when they were in the capital. Little Hu Ji came to Yizhou City in recent years, so she must have stayed in the capital before. There is nothing strange about this."
Although he couldn't be sure of this inference, the Patriarch still hoped that this was the case. Otherwise, it would be too unreasonable. Ang Lee had just arrived, so how could Little Hu Ji and Ang Lee be so close? This time was too fast. Who could have such great charm? His charm value was a little too high.
Ang Lee didn't care about anyone. With Dai 'er by his side, he didn't want to watch the later songs and dances. Chatting with Dai' er was more important than watching the songs and dances.
"Dai 'er, pour me some wine."
Ang Lee held Dai 'er's hand and said.
Dai 'er only poured a little for Ang Lee so that Ang Lee wouldn't get drunk because of drinking too much. It was obvious that Dai' er cared about Ang Lee. She cared a lot about Ang Lee's health, which made Ang Lee quite happy.
"It's not good to drink too much. Drink less!"
Dai 'er raised her glass and said with concern.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "Well, since it's not good to drink too much, Dai 'er, help me drink this glass!"
Dai 'er gently took off her veil and drank the glass of wine. She didn't want to refuse at all.
"Alright, let's have another cup then."
Ang Lee continued to ask.
Dai 'er shook her head and said, "No, it's not good to drink too much. If I drink too much, I'll get drunk. I won't be able to serve you tonight."
Her voice was very low, but the people next to her still heard it. They immediately looked at her with envy. It was good to have money and status. Little Hu Ji had been in Yizhou City for so many years. It was very difficult for them to even talk to her, let alone get intimate with her. This was because Little Hu Ji didn't understand them at all. At most, she would say a few words to them. Most of the time, she would just seriously dance.
"Why, Dai 'er won't leave tonight?"
Ang Lee asked while knowing the answer. Old man Xianyu had already told him that he wanted Dai 'er to serve him. How could this be a joke? However, Xianyu didn't tell Dai' er to serve Ang Lee. He had already guessed that Dai 'er would be willing. How could the matter between Dai' er and Ang Lee be hidden from him?
Looking at Ang Lee and Dai 'er being intimate with each other, old man Xianyu secretly smiled. He was also young. Although he wasn't as handsome as Ang Lee when he was young, he was rich! Once a man had money, he wouldn't lack women. It would be easy for him to make a beautiful woman obediently lie in his arms.
Old Man Xianyu once had a beautiful wife and concubines in his arms, and he could play with them however he wanted. Now, looking at Li An and Dai 'er's appearance, it made him recall his youth, and a feeling of nostalgia arose in his heart.
The singing and dancing continued and didn't stop for a moment. This way, there was enough atmosphere to let people experience the feeling of liveliness and cheerfulness.
Ang Lee occasionally interacted with Xianyu, but more often than not, he was teasing Dai 'er. Ang Lee only had Dai' er in his eyes, and Dai 'er didn't look at anyone at all. She only had eyes for Ang Lee. Although there were thousands of people around, Ang Lee and Dai' er treated everyone as air. They could ignore anyone's existence and do whatever they wanted. They didn't need to care about other people's opinions. Even old man Xianyu didn't say anything, so how could others dare to say anything?
Of course, the crowd's toasts from time to time were indispensable. They came to the banquet to worm their way into being friends with Ang Lee. Even if Ang Lee didn't know them, as long as they successfully talked to Ang Lee, it would become something they could boast about in the future.
In order to organize this banquet well, old man Xianyu took out a lot of materials and the dishes were all top-notch. However, not everyone's food was the same. The food in the main hall was different from the food outside.
For example, some of the more difficult to obtain food were prepared for everyone. This was very unrealistic. Some of the best delicacies were destined to be prepared for only a few people. For example, the Fish Brain Tofu in front of Ang Lee. Only Ang Lee and old man Xianyu had some in front of them. Others weren't qualified to enjoy it.
This Fish Brain Tofu wasn't a new type of tofu. Instead, it was a fish brain that had been made into tofu. This was too rare. The brain of a fish was very small, and one could only imagine how many fish heads were needed to make this small fish brain into tofu. A bowl of Fish Brain Tofu that looked unremarkable would require at least a thousand large fish heads of three to five catties, or even more.
Because the fish brain was very difficult to obtain, the so-called Fish Brain Tofu in the future was actually a tofu product. It was a very tender tofu and was called Fish Brain Tofu. The main ingredient was tofu, so the cost naturally wasn't very high. Almost everyone could afford it.
There was also a kind of fish head tofu that was made by mixing a fish head and tofu together. Because there was a fish brain in the fish head, it was also called fish brain tofu. This was actually fish head tofu, and the name fish brain tofu was completely unreasonable.
As for the Fish Brain Tofu made from fish brain, it was too expensive. Ordinary people couldn't afford it at all, and the difficulty of making it was too high. Other than the extremely rich, ordinary people really didn't dare to eat it like this. Ordinary wealthy families could be eaten until they became poor.
However, the Xianyu family wasn't an ordinary family. They were very rich, and other families couldn't afford the Fish Brain Tofu made from fish brain, but their family could. Their family could casually buy a few thousand fish. After taking out the fish brain, even if they threw away all the fish meat, it wouldn't be a big deal. Moreover, these fish meat without the fish brain could still be sold, but the price would be cheaper. Or perhaps, many of them would be made into salted fish. After taking out the fish brain from the fish head and making the whole fish into salted fish, ordinary people wouldn't be able to see any problems. Would the person who bought the salted fish care if the brain of the salted fish was taken away? They definitely wouldn't care.
"Assistant Minister Li, a bowl of this Fish Brain Tofu costs a thousand and five catties of big black fish. It's very precious, right? Assistant Minister Li, try it. "
Old Man Salted Fish said.
Ang Lee nodded and said, "A thousand and five catties of big black fish made into such a small bowl of Fish Brain Tofu. It seems like it's really precious!"
After saying that, he lightly took a bite. The taste was indeed very good. It was smooth and refreshing, much better than the feeling of eating tofu.
"Dai 'er, this Fish Brain Tofu is not bad. I'll give it all to you."
Ang Lee only took a bite and left the rest for Dai 'er. This was enough to show the importance and care that Ang Lee attached to Dai' er.
Dai 'er didn't stand on ceremony with Ang Lee and gladly accepted Ang Lee's good intentions.
"En, it's really delicious."
Dai 'er said happily.
Seeing how Ang Lee treated Dai 'er so generously, Old Man Xianyu and everyone laughed. They could all understand Ang Lee's way of doing things. No matter how delicious the food was, if one enjoyed it alone, there wasn't much meaning. Watching a beauty enjoy a top-notch delicacy was the true enjoyment.
A bowl of Fish Brain Tofu didn't have much of a portion. Dai 'er quickly finished all the delicacies and didn't leave any for Ang Lee.
It could be seen that this Fish Brain Tofu was definitely very delicious, so much so that Dai 'er couldn't control herself. After taking a bite, she still wanted to take another bite. Unknowingly, she finished the entire bowl of Fish Brain Tofu.
Fish Brain Tofu was made from fish brain. It was said that if a person ate fish brain often, they would become smarter. This saying naturally didn't have any scientific reasoning. It was based on people's habits. They felt that eating fish brain would make one's brain become smarter. Many people believed that eating fish brain would make one's brain smarter. In fact, if a person's brain wasn't smart, eating anything would be useless.
In addition to the excellent fish brain, Ang Lee also had deep-fried donkey skewers in front of him. In other words, the donkey's penis was cut into thin slices and then slowly fried in a wok of oil. Finally, various secret seasonings were added. In this way, the delicious and delicious money skewers were completed.
According to the principle of eating something to nourish, eating this kind of money skewers would naturally nourish the thing below. For Ang Lee, this thing didn't need to be nourished. However, nourishing it would never be wrong. Nourishing it was healthier.
"Dai 'er, this money skewers are also very delicious. Why don't you eat it?"
Ang Lee asked.
Dai 'er smiled and said, "This is for you."
It seemed that this little girl knew everything. She knew that the money skewers were for men.
"Then do you want me to eat more or less?"
Ang Lee continued to ask.
Dai 'er smiled and said, "Of course I want you to eat more. The more you eat, the better. Hehe!"
"Well, if Dai 'er wants me to eat more, then I'll eat more. However, you can't blame me if you can't get out of bed tomorrow morning. Haha!"
Ang Lee said with a smile.
The delicacies of the banquet were constantly being served. These delicacies far exceeded the limit that a person's stomach could bear. Even if they were stuffed to death, it was impossible to eat all of them. Of course, no one forced you to eat all of them. Even if you didn't eat a single bite, there was no problem. It was already good enough to taste a mouthful of everything.
The main character of this banquet was definitely Ang Lee. It was because old man Xianyu wanted to invite Ang Lee that this banquet was held. However, Ang Lee never regarded himself as the main character. He didn't interact actively with the crowd. At most, he interacted more with old man Xianyu and a few other people. It was only limited to the people inside the main hall. He didn't say a word to the people outside the main hall. It seemed that there was no need for this. Everyone treated Ang Lee as the main character, but Ang Lee only paid attention to Dai 'er who was sitting on his lap. He didn't care about the rest of the people. In Ang Lee's heart, Dai' er was the main character of tonight's banquet.
The banquet was held for a full four hours. Amidst the joy, the banquet finally came to an end. Everyone bid farewell to Ang Lee and old man Xianyu in turn. Their attitudes were very respectful. Only Ang Lee and Dai 'er were left behind.
The best guest room in the Xianyu family had already been prepared for Ang Lee. Dai 'er would accompany Ang Lee and spend the night together in the guest room of the Xianyu family. This would definitely be a memorable night.
