Beautiful genius Chinese medicine practitioner and clingy CEO
Chapter 136 Working together
Xu Shuheng responded: "Mom took me to appreciate her flowers, Dad, please sit down and have a cup of tea first."
After saying that, he handed a cup of tea to Premier Xu, but Premier Xu refused: "I'll go find Xiao Zhi first, you guys drink it yourselves."
After saying that, he hurried to the flower room. Chu Jingxiu said while watching the show, "Brother Xu, you've fallen out of favor, hahahaha."
Xu Shuheng glared at Chu Jingxiu expressionlessly. He also liked Gu Shanzhi and thought that it would be great if he had a sister like her. He would laugh even in his dreams.
Soon, Premier Xu and Mrs. Xu came back with Gu Shanzhi. The six of them ate some fruit in the living room, and then an aunt came over to say that the meal was ready.
Mrs. Xu held Gu Shanzhi's hand and said as they walked, "My cooking skills are average, so I can't cook myself, but braised duck is my specialty. I started braising it this morning. You can try it later."
When Lu Xun and the other two heard about the braised duck, their eyes lit up. Lu Xun said to Gu Shanzhi, "Aunt Xu's braised duck is definitely the best in Beijing. I haven't eaten it for a long time. This time, thanks to Xiao Zhi, I can eat it again."
Chu Jingxiu also began to drool: "Sister-in-law, let me tell you, Aunt Xu's braised duck is the most delicious duck I have ever eaten in my life. It is more delicious than even star-rated restaurants."
Mrs. Xu, who was used to the three brothers flattering her since childhood, was now sitting down with Gu Shanzhi without being surprised by the fame or disgrace.
The Xu family's dining room had a long table. Prime Minister Xu sat at the main seat, with Mrs. Xu on his left, followed by Gu Shanzhi and Lu Xun. On Prime Minister Xu's right were Xu Shuheng and Chu Jingxiu.
Gu Shanzhi saw the braised duck at first sight and smelled its fragrance: "It smells delicious."
Chu Jingxiu's eyes were fixed on the basin of ducks. Mrs. Xu watched Chu Jingxiu grow up, and every time she saw Chu Jingxiu like this, she couldn't help laughing.
"Xiao Xiu, why are you still the same as when you were a child? It's not like you haven't eaten this duck before. Look, you're drooling." Mrs. Xu said with a gentle smile.
"That's different. Aunt Xu's braised duck is so delicious. If Aunt Xu opens a restaurant, it will definitely be the next popular restaurant in Beijing, with seats always full."
This flattery, though exaggerated, was not perfunctory, and made Mrs. Xu laugh again: "I knew you would like it. I have packed a box for you. You can take it home when you leave later."
Chu Jingxiu's eyes were instantly filled with little stars: "Aunt Xu is so nice. It turns out that after all these years, Aunt Xu still loves me the most."
Looking at this scene, Premier Xu was also very impressed. It had been many years since their family had such a complete meal. The last time the three brothers had a meal together was before Xu Shuheng was transferred to the front line and Lu Xun had not yet gone abroad. It has been nearly ten years.
Mrs. Xu and Premier Xu were thinking the same thing. They shook their heads to get rid of their depressed mood and asked everyone to start eating.
When Gu Shanzhi took the first bite of the duck, his eyes were filled with the same little stars as Chu Jingxiu's: "Aunt Xu, it's really delicious. Are you really not considering opening a store?"
Gu Shanzhi never let the duck leave his mouth. The meat is delicious and the sauce is simply the soul of the dish.
Mrs. Xu sighed: "Old Xu is the Prime Minister. We, as his relatives, cannot do business. In order to avoid some people with ulterior motives, we can only do so after Old Xu retires."
Gu Shanzhi suddenly said, "Then why can't you provide the formula, Aunt Xu, and let others do it? Then you can get a share of the profits, right?"
"But I haven't found anyone I can trust. This is my family's ancestral recipe. What if I give it to someone with bad intentions and they turn around and say we made a deal with them? What should I do then?"
Gu Shanzhi glanced at Chu Jingxiu who was eating happily across from him and said, "I think Master Chu is a good fit. We have known each other for many years. Seeing how much he loves braised duck, he will definitely not leak it."
This made everyone think. The three children were young before, but now it is different. All three of them can stand on their own. This is not a bad idea.
The most excited person was Chu Jingxiu. He looked at Madam Xu sincerely and said, "Aunt Xu, please believe me. I have become a new man now. Give me the formula and we will open a store together. I will be in the front and you will be the boss behind the scenes. We will make money all over the capital."
Xu Shuheng said: "You are not reliable."
Chu Jingxiu choked for a moment. Lu Xun said at this moment: "If you really want to do this, Lu Corporation can invest together with Chu Corporation. This should be reliable. We all have our own abilities now. Aunt Xu, do whatever you want. We will support you from behind."
Chu Jingxiu became more confident after getting Lu Xun's support. Lu Xun was the most trustworthy child in the eyes of all parents. He had been the kid next door since he was a child. "Yes, leave the public affairs to me and Lu Xun. Brother Xu can be our bodyguard. We will work together as officials and businessmen. This delicious duck will surely become the representative of Beijing cuisine in the future."
Hearing about the collusion between officials and businessmen, Xu Shuheng patted Chu Jingxiu on the head again: "If you can't speak, don't say anything. What collusion between officials and businessmen?"
Lu Xun added: "They are in cahoots with each other."
Xu Shuheng almost spit out the water he had just drunk. Looking at these two troublesome people, can it really work?
Mrs. Xu was ready to make a move. Chu Jingxiu might not be reliable, but with Lu Xun, that was 100%. Prime Minister Xu understood Mrs. Xu's thoughts and said, "Wife, if you want to do it, we'll do it. I think the children's suggestion is good. You just provided the formula and didn't accept bribes. These children are trustworthy. We are all old. You don't have to worry about me if you want to do something."
"Let's eat first. This thing won't be accomplished in one go. We can discuss it slowly later. We must not let others find fault with our family."
Mrs. Xu's words showed her willingness to cooperate. The people at the table ate more happily. Gu Shanzhi also ate a lot of duck. She never knew that duck could be cooked so deliciously.
