Chapter 1130 What Else Do You Want to Do?
When Grandpa Niu heard everyone's compliments, he couldn't help but beam with joy and burst into laughter: "My old Niu Tou hasn't been a cook for many years. He thought his cooking skills had deteriorated, but now he seems to be just so-so. Don't stay here. I’ve prepared a private room for your family of three, and I’ve also prepared a few bottles of good wine. I won’t come back until I’m drunk at noon today!”
He held the big iron pot and strode towards a private room next to it.
The scale of this "Niu Tianxia" hotel is actually not large, nor is it a star-rated hotel. Whether it is the outside or the interior decoration, it has a simple and nostalgic feeling, and the decoration style is from more than 20 years ago. of.
Their hotel only has one floor. In addition to a dozen tables in the lobby, there are also five small private rooms. However, the people who come here to eat are ordinary people around them, so naturally they are not so particular.
Grandpa Niu brought the big iron pot to the innermost private room, placed it gently in the middle of the table, and then took two bottles of Yubingshao, the favorite liquor of the older generation in Xiangjiang, from the side and gave them to the four people in the private room. Each man poured half a glass, and as for Lin Meng'e, he prepared a bottle of orange juice for her.
Grandpa Niu picked up his cup and laughed loudly at Lin Shenglin, Lin Meng'e and Zhong Mo: "Lin Shenglin, when I received your call this morning, I was really happy. I thought that after you moved out, You don’t recognize us poor relatives anymore. Who knew you would want to come to my place for dinner? I am so happy!”
Lin Shenglin burst out laughing: "Old Niu Tou, why do I recognize you, Old Niu Tou? I only recognize the Niu Tou Feast you cook, it is definitely the first in Hong Kong!"
"You just need to accept the bull-head feast I made. Just say this, we must drink three glasses of wine!"
When Grandpa Niu heard his compliment, he was so happy that the wrinkles on his face disappeared a lot.
Grandpa Niu and Niu Zhihua drank three glasses of wine with them, said a few words, and then withdrew.
After all, this was a family dinner for Lin Shenglin's family, so it would be bad if they just stayed away.
"dad!"
After leaving the private room, just ten meters away, Niu Zhihua shouted uncontrollably.
Grandpa Niu's face instantly darkened, he clasped his hands behind his back and said coldly: "Come with me!"
"oh!"
Grandpa Niu led his son away, looked him up and down with sharp eyes for several minutes, and said expressionlessly: "Zhihua, I saw that you have some talent in cooking, so I gave this store to you, but I didn't expect that You actually managed a good store to what it is now, do you deserve the efforts of the Lao Niu family?"
The "Niu Tianxia" Hotel can be regarded as the ancestral business of the Niu family. It started from Grandpa Niu's grandfather's generation and has gone through four generations now. It can be said that the peak period was when Grandpa Niu was in charge of the "Niu Tianxia" Hotel. Almost everyone in Xiangjiang knows about it, and Grandpa Niu has managed a generous fortune for each of his children with this shop.
But who would have thought that Niu Zhihua had been in charge of the "Niu Tianxia" Hotel for only six or seven years and it had already declined like this.
How could Grandpa Niu look at this without feeling heartbroken?
"Dad, I, I just want to reform and innovate, but, who knew it would turn out like this!"
Niu Zhihua suddenly became anxious, "You don't want 'Niu Tianxia' to close down, right? That is the ancestral property of the Niu family!"
"If you don't live up to your expectations, what can I do?"
Grandpa Niu criticized, "Don't even think about your suggestion. Who is Lin Shenglin? How can he help us advertise for 'Niu Tianxia'? Isn't this nonsense? My old Niu Touzhang Don't open your mouth!"
"Dad, actually I have another way!"
Niu Zhihua's eyes were shining brightly, and he was a little eager to try.
"Oh? What can I do?"
Grandpa Niu tilted his head and looked at him with suspicion.
"If Meng'e and I get married, wouldn't our Niu family and the Lin family be one family? By then, will Lin Shenglin be able to ignore death? And Lin Meng'e is so beautiful, and our two families have made ten My neighbor, don’t you want her to be your daughter-in-law?”
When Niu Zhihua said this, his face was full of excitement and he almost started dancing.
But he didn't notice at all that his father was shaking with anger, his face was blue, and his eyes were wide open.
"Crack!"
As soon as Niu Zhihua finished speaking, he received a loud slap in the face.
Grandpa Niu pointed at his nose and cursed loudly: "Niu Zhihua, are you crazy? Lin Shenglin brought his daughter and son-in-law over for dinner this time. Do you hear that? That's his son-in-law. Why are you joining in the fun? "
"Dad, I just saw that the man and Meng'e didn't wear wedding rings at all, so they are just boyfriend and girlfriend now, not married yet, I still have a chance!"
Niu Zhihua covered his face with his hands and shouted unconvinced, "Dad, you have watched Meng'e grow up since she was a child. You have hugged her many times, and she and I are childhood sweethearts. Besides, I am so tall." No worse than that man, why can’t I be with Meng’e? Don’t you want Meng’e to marry into our Niu family?”
"Niu Zhihua, it's noon now, not at night. I want to dream and wait until night. I'm tired and I need to rest. You can go and do whatever you want. But I'm warning you, don't disturb others' eating. Do you hear me?"
Grandpa Niu put aside these words, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards a rest room nearby.
"Meng'e is so beautiful, is it too much for me to marry her?"
Niu Zhihua looked at his father's back and muttered in a low voice.
…
Lin Meng'e picked up a piece of beef head meat and put it on the plate in front of Zhong Mo, explaining happily: "Husband, try the beef head meat quickly. How is it? I have eaten beef head meat from many restaurants in Hong Kong over the years, and this one is the most authentic!"
"Ahem!"
Lin Shenglin, who was standing aside, was full of jealousy and deliberately coughed twice, "What about mine? He said that a daughter is a father's close-fitting little cotton-padded jacket, but I think it's just a small vest at most. It's useless except for looking good!"
"Dad, this is not the first time you come to Grandpa Niu's store. Do you still need me to help you pick it up?"
Lin Meng'e pulled her mouth and said with contempt, "Dad, I didn't expect that you are so squeamish at your age!"
"Squeamish? Am I squeamish?"
Lin Shenglin was so angry that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
"I am your father after all. Can't you two stop showing off your affection and consider my feelings?"
"We didn't seem to do anything?"
Lin Meng'e retorted with wide eyes.
"What else do you want to do? Same as at home?"
Lin Shenglin picked up a piece of beef head meat and took a big bite, his face full of dissatisfaction.
In the past, when he and his daughter went out, his daughter would take care of herself first, but now? The little cotton-padded jacket has become someone else's.
Zhong Mo and Lin Meng'e blushed when they heard this.
They both have criminal records!
They were even caught on the spot by Lin Shenglin!
