I have to say that the residence Wu Di arranged for everyone is quite good. It is located in a courtyard behind the Wuliang City Defense Department. The environment of the entire courtyard is not bad. Entering the courtyard is a small pond ten meters long and five meters wide. There are lotus flowers planted in the pond, but at this time there are only lotus leaves, and the lotus flowers are still sprouting underwater.
There are rooms on the east, west, north and three sides of the pond, a total of seven rooms, and there is also another kitchen. This is a very good place for Dowling and his party to stay.
According to the old rules, Dao Wuji and Chu Wan'er live in the main house on the north side, Chu Xiyun lives in the east room on the north side, and Dao Lin lives in the west room on the north side.
In the north room on the east side are Chen Bulong and Gong Shanming, and in the north room on the west side are three children, Zhang Siyu, Lin Ge and Luo Jixiang.
The two rooms at the door are occupied by Brother Wu from the enemy family on one side, and Ao Shun and Ao Zhuang on the other.
It can be said that with this arrangement, the entire courtyard can be considered impregnable.
After the group moved in, Dolin first explored the surroundings and felt relieved after making sure there was nothing unusual.
Just as he was packing his luggage and assigning rooms, Wu Di rushed over with an old man.
"Distinguished guests, this is the city lord of Wuliang City, Wu Hong." Wu Di introduced to Daolin.
Daolin clasped his fists at Wu Hong and said, "I'm sorry for bothering you so much, please forgive me, Lord City Lord."
Wu Hong burst out laughing and replied: "For the two competing chefs to come to our Wuliang City, it is a blessing for our city. We can only ask for it."
Soon, Dao Wuji also came over.
"This is my father, he represents the Shenwu Empire." Daolin introduced to Wu Hong.
Wu Hong's expression changed when he heard this. He had just heard from Wu Di that the participating chefs from the Shenwu Empire and Lieyang Empire had arrived. He didn't expect that there was such a relationship between the two chefs.
Wu Hong looked at Wu Di and found that he also had a confused look on his face. He thought to himself and deliberately concealed it.
"Two master chefs in the same family, I'm really impressed... I'm impressed..." Wu Hong said with a smile.
After the two sides exchanged some polite words, Wu Hong said that he would arrange a dinner for everyone in the evening.
Daolin evaded a few words tactfully, but Wu Hong was very determined and finally agreed reluctantly. However, only Daolin and Dao Wuji went to the dinner. The others could handle it at their residence. There were still people who could cook here. There are three people, so as long as there is a stove, it will be no problem.
In the evening, Wu Di came over in person to invite them to the table. Daolin explained and took Dao Wuji to the banquet.
The banquet was held at the City Lord's Mansion. The City Defense Department was not far from the City Lord's Mansion. It was on the same street. After all, the City Defense Department also had the responsibility of protecting the City Lord's Mansion.
Arriving at the door of the City Lord's Mansion, Wu Hong was already waiting at the door. When he saw Daolin and the others coming, he walked down the steps to greet them enthusiastically.
"Dear guests please come inside...please come inside." Wu Hong said with a smile on his face.
"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long, Lord City Lord..." Daolin clasped his fists.
"I just came out, and the time was just right. The distinguished guests sat down and chatted inside." Wu Hong said with a smile.
Daolin had a good impression of this city lord of Wuliang City. After all, he had not felt any hostility from him so far.
Entering the city lord's mansion, Daolin felt as if he had entered a scholarly family. The walls and orchids in the courtyard were all engraved with poems and songs.
"City Lord Wu is so elegant!" Daolin praised.
"Oh? Chef Tao also knows calligraphy and painting?" Speaking of this, Wu Hong's eyes lit up.
Dolin smiled and shook his head and said, "I don't know much, but I have a few friends who are really proficient in this. I just looked around and understood a little bit."
"Haha... Chef Tao is too modest. Your so-called superficiality must be seven or eight blocks away from Wu!" Wu Hong said.
"Don't dare, don't dare... How can I compare with City Master Wu? My handwriting is like that dog's lying down, and I can't get on the stage!" Daolin waved his hand quickly.
Dao Wuji, who was following behind, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. His son had become so outstanding without even realizing it. He was no longer the stupid kid he had chased all over the yard before.
Thinking of this, Dao Wuji felt ashamed again
Ashamed, he didn't help Dolin much during the years when he was growing up. Needless to say, how difficult it was for his son to grow up to this point.
"Young Master is really a talented person!" Wu Di, who was following Dao Wuji, praised him.
Dao Wuji nodded, his son must be excellent.
After passing through several corridors, we came to a courtyard in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion. This courtyard has a rockery and a small lake, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.
"This place is really wonderful!" Dolin couldn't help but admired.
Wu Hong was very happy with Daolin's appreciation. No one doesn't like to be praised, especially when it is his masterpiece.
"As I get older, I only have so many hobbies in my life. All I can accomplish before I die is fulfill my wish." Wu Hong said with a smile.
When Daolin heard this, he looked at Wu Hong. There was no internal energy fluctuation in Wu Hong's body. He looked like an ordinary person. Looking at his hair and skin, he should have reached the age of sixty.
"Okay, let's not say these depressing words. Wu is happy to be able to invite two chefs today. I'll have a few more drinks today. I'll treat you two here." Wu Hong continued to lead the way with a smile.
Cross the stone bridge and go straight to the lake pavilion. This pavilion is surrounded by water, and you can see a pond of koi carps when you look into the water.
"Two distinguished guests, please take your seats. Today is a feast. I don't know if the two chefs like it or not, so I didn't ask anyone else to attend. It's just the four of us. How about it?" Wu Hong walked to the pavilion and said.
"City Lord Wu has arranged everything well, I am really satisfied." Daolin nodded and cupped his fists.
"Please take a seat!" Wu Hong smiled and stretched out his hand to signal everyone to take a seat.
The three of them waited for Wu Hong to sit down before following him.
Wu Hong smiled and clapped his hands. The servants around him immediately understood and bent back to order food.
"Let's chat for a while, the food and wine will be here soon." Wu Hong said with a smile.
Daolin and Dao Wuji both nodded and had no objections.
Wu Di poured tea for everyone consciously.
"Wu has something unclear. You two are father and son, so why are you divided into two empires to compete?" Wu Hong asked after taking a sip.
Dao Wuji said: "Because my son is now developing in the Lieyang Empire and opening a restaurant in the Lieyang Empire, so he received the notice in the Lieyang Empire. Speaking of which, we don't even know that the other party participated in the competition."
Wu Hong suddenly realized, and the four of them laughed at the same time.
Soon, the sound of footsteps came from the stone bridge. Dolin looked and saw a group of servants walking towards here carrying dinner plates. They were all male servants.
Daolin only found it interesting. From entering the mansion to the backyard and then to the pavilion, he didn't see a woman.
The servants placed the dishes on the table respectfully, and then left one by one.
"You're welcome, use your chopsticks and try to see how good I am as a cook. Of course I can't compare with the two of you." Wu Hong said with a smile.
Daolin and Dao Wuji nodded. As hosts and guests, they naturally used their chopsticks first.
