Yan Xingxuan finally brought back a box of moon cakes and a large plate full of braised pork.
Xiao Nianzhi looked at the time and felt that Xiao Siye might not be able to come back too early, so he prepared to make another copy later.
Now the portion that comes out of the pot is directly installed for Yan Xingxuan.
Of course, there was still a little left, so Xiao Nianzhi asked Walnut and the others to have a taste of it first.
After bidding farewell to Yan Xingxuan, Xiao Nianzhi was about to return home when he heard a familiar voice coming from not far away: "Sister Xiao!"
She had just heard this voice last night, so she had not forgotten it.
Turning his head and taking a look, he found Zhang Hanshan standing at the next door.
There was no carriage at the door, so the other party must not have just come back, but came out of the house?
The other party took the initiative to say hello, and Xiao Nianzhi also smiled and nodded: "Second brother of the Zhang family."
This second brother's cry was sweet and soft. Zhang Hanshan felt very comfortable listening to it anyway. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Hey, sister of the Xiao family."
After answering, he couldn't help but ask: "Are you preparing for the family dinner tonight?"
Tonight, every household is like this, and there is nothing to hide, so Xiao Nianzhi nodded: "Yes, is Brother Zhang's house ready?"
In response, Zhang Hanshan nodded: "We are getting ready."
Ying Wan hesitated again before continuing: "...My sister is cooking, right?"
Hearing him ask this, Xiao Nianzhi probably understood what the other party meant.
Zhang Hanshan didn't sleep at night, and would run to the village next door just for a bite of mooncakes.
So, now that you smell the aroma of meat, it’s normal to want to try it out, right?
Xiao Siye got along well with his neighbors, and Zhang Hanshan behaved quite kindly. Xiao Nianzhi didn't mind and formed more good relationships.
After thinking about it, she nodded again: "Well, we just prepared braised pork. Would you like to try it, the second brother of the Zhang family?"
Originally, Zhang Hanshan was still thinking that if he shamelessly came to ask for his stuttering, would his father break his legs if he found out?
But...
Now it was Xiao's sister who took the initiative to invite him!
Invite actively! ! !
How could he refuse this?
As an older brother, you should be considerate of your younger sister.
Therefore, you should satisfy your sister’s wishes and fulfill your sister’s needs.
My sister invited me, so I have to try it!
Controlling his inner excitement, Zhang Hanshan cleared his throat and nodded solemnly: "Sister Xiao has said so, so why should I be so shameless as to come and try it?"
When Zhang Hanshan came to visit, the Xiao brothers were still studying in the study.
When Xiao Qing heard that Prince Wei was coming, he thought about it, but was suppressed by Xiao Zhou.
Xiao Qing was not in the Imperial College, and he didn't know what was going on there. He was suppressed by his second brother, and it was difficult for him to struggle.
I couldn't find anything out when I asked, so I could only sulk there.
At this moment Zhang Hanshan came in, and he looked at his second brother angrily.
Xiao Zhou sighed helplessly. The two families had a good relationship. He naturally knew Zhang Hanshan's virtues.
When Yan Xingxuan came over before, Xiao Zhou deliberately made room for him.
But now that another man comes to visit, it's hard to let Xiao Nianzhi deal with it by himself.
Therefore, he nodded lightly at Xiao and walked out of the study first.
Walnuts and others are busy and haven't touched the bowl of braised pork for the time being.
After Xiao Nianzhi thought about it, he explained it to Aunt Qin and the others, then changed to a small plate, put the meat on the plate again, put the mooncakes on the plate, and then brought it up.
After actually entering the mansion, Zhang Hanshan realized that he was a little embarrassed.
But...
Isn’t there a saying that says: It’s all coming.
So, don’t be embarrassed after eating.
Moreover, he is thick-skinned and he is not afraid.
As long as his father knew better than to beat him to death, he would dare to do it the next day.
Master Zhang:? !
Xiao Nianzhi originally thought that it would not look good if she stayed with him all the time when a man came to visit her.
Fortunately, when I returned to the banquet living room, I found that my second brother and my third brother had already arrived.
She smiled and said hello, put the things on it again, and then stepped aside to use as a transparent background.
Zhang Hanshan, who has a strong psychological quality, calmly finished half the plate of braised pork and showed off two more moon cakes.
to be honest……
I haven't eaten enough, but it's somewhat rude to come here to try something new and eat everything they have.
Although Zhang Hanshan was indeed surprised by Xiao Nianzhi last night.
However, all the amazing things are temporary, and he really has no thoughts of getting married and having children for the time being.
Therefore, all interactions with Xiao Nianzhi were polite.
Moreover, at this time, the Xiao brothers were all here, so there was no way he could go past these two people and specifically talk to Xiao Nianzhi.
After thanking Xiao Nianzhi for the braised pork, he showed off his rice with a big mouthful.
After eating two meals in succession, even though he was as thick-skinned as Zhang Hanshan, he felt a little embarrassed.
So after returning home, I discussed it with the boy and gave him a box of popular phrases in Beijing that my friend had given me.
Zhang Hanshan personally sent it to express his gratitude and sincerity: "Sister Xiao, this is a popular storybook in the capital. Don't worry, I haven't even had time to look through it. They are all new. Thank you sister for your hospitality."
Giving gifts between men and women requires a great sense of proportion.
Therefore, you need to consider carefully what you give.
In case of being misunderstood by others, Zhang Hanshan felt that he was shameless and it didn't matter if he was ridiculed.
But Xiao Nianzhi is a little girl whose reputation has been affected. If he can't bear it and finds fault again, then he will be guilty of a big crime.
Therefore, after thinking about it, he felt that there must be no problem in sending books.
Xiao Nianzhi was not sure whether he could accept the gift this time, so he looked at Xiao Zhou beside him, and when he saw the other person nodded slightly, he accepted it with a smile: "Then I'll thank Brother Zhang."
When Zhang Hanshan heard this, he waved his hands quickly: "It's because the second brother is being shameless. As long as my sister doesn't dislike her, it's fine. Then I'll go back first."
After hearing this, Xiao Nianzhi nodded: "Brother Zhang, please slow down."
Zhang Hanshan returned home soon, and Xiao Nianzhi also returned with his storybook.
Dinner was not ready yet, so Xiao Nianzhi sent the storybook back to the room first, and then got into the kitchen.
Xiao Qing smelled the braised pork for most of the day, but in the end he didn't even eat a piece, and he felt bad.
Now that I came back, I didn't have the intention to read any more, so I followed him into the kitchen.
The men of the Xiao family don't have the idea of a gentleman staying away from the chef.
Xiao Siye himself has gone through hardships, so he also adheres to the principle of simplicity when it comes to the education of his children.
The Xiao family father and son can make something to some extent.
Don't worry about whether it's good or bad, at least it can fill your stomach.
In Xiao Siye's words: If one day there is no one around to take care of you, are you still waiting to starve to death?
Therefore, Xiao Qing has no pressure on things like going to the kitchen.
Xiao Zhou followed closely behind, and would go over to help from time to time.
When we were in the academy, it was either inconvenient or Yan Xingxuan occupied it, so Xiao Zhou couldn't get involved at all.
Now that he can help, Xiao Zhou actually learned a lot from it. The difficult and obscure places he encountered in his previous studies also gave him a vague sense of enlightenment.
This made Xiao Zhou feel very surprised, and even the action of handing things over showed a sense of joy.
