Mu Yun originally wanted to go to the plate of dumplings stuffed with fungus and shrimp, but after hearing what Ji Guanliang said, he knew what he was talking about, so he smiled slightly and said, "It's up to you to do as you please. I'm sorry for taking the lead."
After saying that, he stretched out his chopsticks, picked up two dumplings and put them into the bowl. Then he opened his hands and said, "Brother Ji, please."
Ji Guanliang's face was full of confidence, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a dumpling in the bowl, and then said leisurely: "Brother Mu is a guest from afar, so I should be more reserved, but you don't need to be too polite."
Mu Yun responded with a smile. The two of them were going back and forth, and soon there were only four dumplings left on the plate.
Ji Guanliang put a dumpling into his bowl and said with a proud smile: "Brother Mu, please."
Mu Yun was about to stretch out his chopsticks when he murmured to himself: "There are three left. No matter if I take one or two, it seems I can't get the last one. Alas... what should I do?"
Ji Guanliang calmed down and said lightly: "It's just a game. Brother Mu, please make a decision quickly. I've been patient for a long time. I'm already hungry."
Mu Yun nodded and said, "I'm sorry, sorry, brother Ji, I'm sorry if you don't tell me. I feel hungry and helpless when I say this. It's really ridiculous."
As he spoke, Mu Yun picked up a dumpling and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it and praised it: "Miss Han's craftsmanship is indeed extraordinary. My trip with Master Lei is really worthwhile."
Han Huixin's pretty face blushed slightly, and she smiled sweetly and said: "I am so admired by the young hero, and the little girl deserves it."
Ji Guanliang was startled when he saw this, and then he tentatively said, "Brother Mu, are you done with this round? Then I'm going to take action."
Mu Yun waved his hand and said, "It's not yet yet, Brother Ji, don't be impatient."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yun stretched out his chopsticks and put the remaining two dumplings into his bowl.
Ji Guanliang's outstretched chopsticks froze in the air, and he said displeasedly: "Brother Mu, what do you mean? We made it clear just now that we can only take one or two at a time, but now you take three. It's really too rogue." Alright?"
Mu Yun said disapprovingly: "Brother Ji, must you have remembered it wrong? We agreed to take turns picking up the dumplings and putting them into our own bowls." But the dumpling I just ate was not put into the bowl at all. How could we do that? Are you calling me a rogue?"
Ji Guanliang said angrily: "You are using strong words to make sense. Even if there are loopholes in what I said, isn't the meaning clear?"
Before Mu Yun could answer, Xiao Lei had already said: "I said there was a loophole, so who can I blame?"
"Besides, why didn't I know that you don't eat fresh food? If you really want to be a scoundrel, you are the initiator, right?"
Ji Guanliang was at a loss for words, and his handsome face turned red under the pressure. Han Huixin quickly smoothed things over and said, "Okay, okay, it's just a game, don't take it seriously."
"The dumplings won't taste good when they're cold, so please don't be polite, Mr. Mu."
Mu Yun was really rude. While he was enjoying the meal, he said calmly: "What Miss Han said is just a game. Brother Ji, don't take it to heart. The so-called getting fat by breaking one's word, then... hmm? Is this...?"
Halfway through his words, Mu Yun took out a shiny copper plate from his mouth. Han Huixin said in surprise: "Young Master Mu is really lucky. We only paid for this piece of luck money at the beginning of the year. Half of it." Yue was nowhere to be seen after eating it, I didn’t expect that you would happen to bump into me today.”
After hearing this, Mu Yun smiled even more, while Xiao Lei looked at Ji Guan Liang and said: "No matter how you kill the little plan, if you lose, you lose. Once a man has made a promise, it is hard to keep up. The prize we have agreed upon before, what will you do?" Should I give it or not?”
Ji Guanliang was so crowded that he had no power to resist. Just when he was about to accept his decision, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Leiwu looking at Han Huixin with evil intentions. As the saying goes, Sima Zhao's heart was known to everyone on the road. What should he do now? Is good?
During the stalemate, I suddenly heard Guo Xiaoyi say in a muffled voice: "Let's do this. After dinner, I will have a gambling game with Mu Shaoxia, and we will decide the winner."
Han Huixin had already sensed something strange, and said angrily, "Okay, Second Junior Brother, if you continue to act like this, I will use the sect's rules."
Guo Xiaoyi did not dare to protest and only cast provocative eyes on Mu Yun. Mu Yun was not willing to show weakness and immediately said loudly: "Miss Han, please don't worry, I will never embarrass my junior brother, let alone it's just a game, it's no big deal."
Han Huixin was still waiting for more persuasion, and Xiao Lei also encouraged him: "Okay, great beauty, your junior brother is not a three-year-old child. This is your territory after all. Are you afraid that our Mu Shaoxia will outnumber them and kill them?" Have you eaten them all?”
Han Huixin saw that she was helpless, so she had no choice but to let it go. After a while, everyone was full of wine and food. Han Huixin went to the back kitchen to wash the dishes. Mu Yun ordered Wu'er to follow him to help, and the rest of the people followed Guo Xiaoyi to the backyard of Baicao Lu.
When I took a quick glance, I could see clearly that the courtyard was empty, with several medicinal gardens opened, and an ancient bronze tripod standing near the corner gate.
This tripod has three legs and two ears, with a round sky and a square shape, with patterns of gluttonous animals cast on it, giving it a royal air in its solemnity.
Xiao Lei walked around the bronze cauldron and looked inside again. He couldn't help but smacked his lips and said, "Good guy, this cauldron is really not small. It is as tall as half a person. The walls of the cauldron are ridiculously thick. It seems like it weighs several hundred kilograms at least."
Guo Xiaoyi smacked his nose and said: "Half a man is so tall, it's just a small sign for you, and of course it's not worth mentioning to our brothers. Ahem... Look... Mu Shaoxia, let's bet on this bronze tripod today, who can lift it?" How about we get up and decide who wins?"
Mu Yun was startled when he heard this, and saw Xiao Lei curling his lips and saying: "So you are making this idea to show that you have a lot of weight, right? Mu Shaoxia ignore him, who will agree to this kind of bet that is obviously a loss? It’s a fool.”
Guo Xiaoyi had already suspected something, so he took the opportunity to raise his eyebrows and said: "What do you mean by a manly man, retreating in the face of battle? Our odds are bigger this time. Myself, my junior brother, and Wu'er are all included. Do you dare?" "
After hearing this, Xiaolei snorted coldly and said: "You big pot, you are so greedy that you even care about her. Even if we agree to bet with you, can you collect three prizes? Big beauty plus There are only two second pots, is it possible that Grandpa Chen or Grandma Cai should be involved?"
Guo Xiaoyi choked immediately and glanced at the nervous Guo Xiaoli and Ji Guanliang beside him. He had no choice but to nod and said: "Okay, two will be two, anyway, the future is long."
Xiao Lei rolled his eyes and lowered his voice: "How about Damu Tou, can you lift this cauldron? If you can, the beauty will belong to us."
Mu Yun had been silent just now, and then he said seriously: "In the past, the King of Chu was able to carry the cauldron. Although we have some imitations today, we cannot easily lose to the ancients."
"So in my opinion, why not add some tricks to spice it up?"
Guo Xiaoyi was startled and said: "What kind of tricks are you talking about first?"
Mu Yun coughed and said, "In terms of the hexagrams, the upper fire and lower wind are the cauldron. The cauldron was originally a cooking vessel, so how about we heat up the cauldron first and then lift it?"
