Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"Rinse your mouth with clean water first to remove the irrelevant taste in your mouth and keep your tongue flexible and pure." He Le said, picking up the tea bowl in front of him and rinsing his mouth with a mouthful of water.

Then a servant came forward holding a copper basin.

Gu Yue...had a vision of Lin Daiyu entering the Jia residence for the first time.

However, Helebi was much more bold and unrestrained than the other women. She tilted her head and spat out the water in her mouth.

The old butler standing at the side frowned, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Gu Yue glanced at him.

Hele had demonstrated it, so the three of them had no choice but to follow suit. The water was very clear, like spring water.

Hele was very happy to see that they were giving him face. "The first dish is orange juice white cake, which is a kind of fruit sauce introduced from the West and improved by famous chefs. It is poured over a fragrant and glutinous cake. Please."

The servants picked up the chopsticks.

Gu Yue felt uncomfortable all over.

It is true that this process was rigorous and ceremonial, but Gu Yue was used to being a rough guy, and seeing him suddenly be so elegant made him feel uneasy.

Looking at Gu Xu and Shi San, there was no expression on Shi San's face, but his every move was natural and harmonious. He did not look uncomfortable at all, as if he was just eating an ordinary meal.

Gu Xu didn't show any strange behavior. He seemed to be used to all these complicated rules and was raising his chopsticks towards the glutinous rice cake.

Gu Yue had no choice but to follow suit and picked up the pastry and put it in his mouth.

It was a small piece, only about the size of two fingers. But the sauce was very well-mixed, sweet and sour, refreshing and appetizing, and Gu Yue liked it right away.

It is jam, but it is quite different from the jam in the world today.

"Delicious, delicious." Gu Yue said, "With such delicious food, why not open a store?"

He Le closed his eyes and savored the food. After a while, he spoke: "Boss Gu, this is really cliché. Food is not a tool to make money. If delicious food cannot be placed in front of people who truly appreciate it, it might as well be thrown on the ground."

Gu Yue: ...Okay, okay, my mind is full of making money.

"Your understanding of food is indeed elegant." Gu Yue praised bravely.

Although it is understandable that he has a unique taste in a certain field, Hele's appreciation of food is obviously based on the premise that he is rich. As for Gu Yue himself, he has a rural background and a huge money-eating beast like Gu Xu is pressing on him, so it is normal for him to want to make money!

"It's too narrow-minded to say this to Big Brother." Gu Xu suddenly said.

Gu Yue turned his head. He Le also stopped and looked over in confusion.

"You and your elder brother are certainly elegant people, but that's because you have no worries about food and drink, so you can indulge in delicious food without worrying about money all the time." Gu Xu had a faint smile on his face, "But my father is not like that. He is worried about his family and money, so he naturally doesn't care about who the food is delivered to, which is cliché."

The hairs on Gu Yue's back stood up. Just say it!

But why am I so touched!

He didn't want Hele's attention to be drawn to Gu Xu, thus making Gu Xu stand out, so he also said: "Haha, sorry to make you laugh, we are not from high-class families, and our family has many expenses..."

"But because of this, I am very grateful to you, Brother Hele, for treating us to delicious food." Gu Yue stood up and bowed.

With this situation, we can leave whenever we want.

Gu Xu is too impulsive! There is no need to say this. ...But Gu Yue didn't feel dissatisfied at all, because the child was protecting him.

How could Gu Xu not know that this was a bit of a challenge? He just couldn't stand hearing people say that the current Gu Dashi was not.

Is it someone else's turn to bully him?

He Le is indeed as annoying as the rumors say.

He Le was stunned for three seconds, then quickly stood up and held Gu Yue's shoulders: "Oh my, what's going on? You acted like you were leaving right away. How could I mean that?"

He looked a little guilty: "Look at my mouth, I said something inappropriate again. My father used to be annoyed by my bad words."

He pushed Gu Yue back to his seat: "It's my fault. I didn't think it through. That's why... Brother Gu, Xiao Xu, and Brother Shi, please don't blame me."

He Le's expression was so sincere that Gu Xu raised his eyebrows. This guy was completely hopeless.

These nobles always have this problem. The class has been passed down for hundreds of years, and generations have been pampered and comfortable, so there are always some things that are not considered.

"Haha, it's okay, just treat it as a joke." Gu Yue didn't want to give up the so-called braised food recipe, so the atmosphere quickly became lively again.

Hele was an honest man, and Gu Yue would not dwell on a single thing. Gu Xu certainly did not express his opinion, so the food tasting activity continued.

After each dish, Hele asked them to clean their mouths with cucumber strips before tasting the next one.

Cold jellyfish head, truffle fish paste, drunken duck, sweet and sour pork, crab meat crisps, lion head, crispy bamboo shoots with chicken oil, and braised pork with preserved vegetables.

Including the orange juice white cake appetizer, there are nine dishes in total, each with only a little bit of each. Finally, there are two soups, Jade White Jade Soup and Bamboo Fungus Chicken Soup.

Too extravagant. Gu Yue felt guilty. These things must have taken a long time to prepare, right? I heard that selecting ingredients would also waste a lot. She was simply Empress Dowager Cixi of Northern Qin.

...What are you thinking about? Really, the Chinese love to reflect on themselves all their lives.

He Le was obviously enjoying the meal. He was extremely satisfied, his face was filled with an almost tangible happiness, and the way he looked at Gu Yue was different.

"How is it, Boss Gu? Are these dishes to your taste?" He Le said with a smile, and then turned to Gu Xu and Shi San, "What do you think, Xiao Xu and Shi San brothers?"

Gu Xu smiled: "Very good, thank you."

Shi San nodded.

Hele: ​​Damn, so cool!

Gu Yue told the truth: "It's delicious, but I'm not full."

Although eating less of each dish would allow you to taste more, this is still too little!

He Le smiled and said, "The food tasting is over. Now it's time to eat."

The sun was shining brightly outside and it was indeed noon.

So that was the appetizer before the meal! Gu Yue was shocked. Wouldn’t the lunch be more sumptuous?

"You three can choose your three favorite dishes, and we will have some of them for lunch." He Le said.

Gu Yue breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of being beaten up as a landlord.

"I'll choose the crispy bamboo shoots. What about Xiao Xu?" Gu Yue asked.

Gu Xu thought for a moment: "Jellyfish head." Gu Yue wrote it down. Gu Xu likes sour and spicy taste.

Shi San shook his head.

He Le was confused. Gu Yue said, "He shook his head. He chose the lion's head."

Shi San: ...

Hele called the waiter over and selected two more dishes in addition to the three. The waiters standing in the main hall withdrew one by one to prepare the meal.

Gu Yue took a sip of the tea that was finally served and asked, "Do you eat like this every day? Prepare nine different dishes and then choose your favorite one.
