Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 414: A sumptuous banquet

This is such a hearty meal!

Every meat dish not only tastes great, but also looks, smells and tastes great, making people salivate.

Everyone ate with gusto, their mouths were full of oil and their stomachs felt very satisfied.

Even the wealthy gentry who had stayed to show their support only out of courtesy did not expect that the country people's buffet would be so delicious and in no way inferior to the banquets in the city.

Even when they hold their own banquets, they may not be able to serve so many sumptuous meat dishes.

Moreover, the taste of these dishes is very good and unforgettable.

It seems that Mr. Gu is indeed generous and willing to invest.

In addition, unlike the chaotic and disorderly buffet in their impression, the buffet at Gu Mansion was in good order.

While enjoying the food, they also heard some people talking about the fact that the buffet was prepared by the master chef of Manjianglou himself.

No wonder these dishes are so delicious!

Manjianglou is a high-end place, and ordinary families simply cannot afford the consumption there.

Some people may not have the opportunity to visit Manjianglou for several years.

Even these wealthy people cannot go to Manjianglou to spend money every day. They just go there to have a meal occasionally, which is considered a luxury.

After hearing that these dishes were prepared by Manjianglou’s master chef, everyone suddenly realized why they tasted so good.

They praised the cooking skills of the chef from Manjianglou and ate even more enthusiastically.

The master chef’s cooking skills are not often found outside. After all, the master chef at Manjianglou does not cook easily.

The one who came from the Zhao family was naturally Manager Zhao. He did not expect that in just less than a year, the former younger brother Gu had become someone he could not reach.

What does this mean?

It shows that you have good vision!

Moreover, when the Gu Mansion hosted the banquet this time, Gu Yan did not leave him out and asked someone to bring a message to him and Manager Zhu.

Shopkeeper Zhu even came in person the day before to discuss sending a chef to help with cooking.

Manager Zhao felt a little strange when he saw Gu Yan chatting and laughing with the county magistrate during the banquet.

In such a short period of time, this young man has grown to such a level. He really should not be underestimated.

He was also happy with his immediate thought at the time. It turned out that his vision was quite sharp.

When everyone was giving gifts just now, he gave the gift from the Zhao family.

But he still wanted to express his feelings in private, so when no one was paying attention, he quietly found an opportunity to find Gu Yan and gave him the gift he had prepared - a set of precious four treasures of the study.

Gu Yan accepted it with a smile.

Manager Zhao said, "Brother Gu? Oh no, you should call him Case Master Gu! Congratulations!"

Gu Yan could hear the tension and worry in Manager Zhao's words. He patted Manager Zhao on the shoulder and consoled him, "Brother Zhao, what are you talking about? With our relationship, why should we be so distant?"

Upon hearing this, Manager Zhao heaved a sigh of relief, as he knew that his worries were unnecessary.

Before, he was afraid that Gu Yan would distance himself from him because of high school, and he was just forcing a smile just now. Now he doesn't think so: "Brother Gu, you are right. Our friendship cannot become alienated because of this."

He was actually deliberately testing Gu Yan's attitude just now, wanting to see if he would become arrogant because of his improved status.

But judging from Gu Yan's reaction, he still remained humble and sincere, which made Manager Zhao feel very gratified.

He felt that he had not misjudged him. Gu Yan was a person worthy of close friendship and would not forget his former friends because of temporary success.

After all, he has seen many people like this who become arrogant and forget their roots because of their change in status.

Manager Zhao looked at Gu Yan with his eyes full of admiration, and was secretly proud of his own judgment of people.

He believes that Gu Yan will achieve greater success in the future.

After chatting outside for a while, the two returned to the table.

After all, there are people coming and going here, so it's not convenient to have a long conversation.

However, it was clear that both sides were very satisfied with the exchange.

For Manager Zhao, Gu Yan did not forget the noble people who had helped him just because he gained power, which shows his character and personality.

He believed that Gu Yan would be able to go further in the future and they could continue to be friends.

As for Gu Yan, he indeed has not forgotten the help that Manager Zhao had given to their family.

At present, some of the mountain products in Shengtangli are still sent to the Zhao Mansion, which is also a manifestation of gratitude.

In addition, he had previously inquired about the reputation of Zhao family officials and found that they were honest and upright and had a good reputation.

He knew very well that making connections was crucial in official circles, and one more friend meant one more way forward.

Therefore, his interaction with Manager Zhao was not only out of gratitude, but also to help his own career.

Although it was a buffet, there were too many people from Sheng Tang, so Gu Tai and the clan leaders of each tribe had naturally made arrangements.

In addition to the nobles from the county and other places, the elders of each ethnic group, the heads of each household and the young and middle-aged people who attended the first round of banquets, the second round of banquets was for the elderly, children and women.

Of course, the dishes are exactly the same.

Under the guidance of Gu Tai and the elders of each tribe, the three-day banquet ended smoothly and successfully.

Of course, the folks in the prosperous Tang Dynasty also knew that these days were important days, and they could not embarrass themselves on such days, otherwise they would arouse public anger.

Therefore, even those who love to take advantage of small opportunities are cautious and dare not do anything naughty on such days.

After the banquet, there was naturally more wine and food.

Aunt Zeng came over and asked Wang: "Yun Niang, what should we do with all these extra meat and vegetables?"

Wang took a look and found that there was indeed a lot of meat. There were still four wild boars that had not been killed, and seven wild goats that were still alive. The wild deer, pheasants and rabbits had all been cooked.

There were some cooked meat dishes left, but they had not been served yet.

"These are the ones that were cooked but not eaten yet, so they are all still here in the kitchen." Aunt Zeng saw Wang looking over and said with a smile, "As for the dishes that were served, they were all eaten up by everyone."

This was also thanks to the fact that Gu Yan had hunted enough prey in the mountains that day. The banquet was very decent and successful, and everyone who came praised it highly.

The folks in Sheng Tang also followed suit and feasted for three days.

Wang felt that she had to ask her husband about this matter, so she told her great-aunt and went out to look for someone.

At this time, Gu Cheng was talking about the crops in the fields with Gu Tai, Gu Yan and others.

Gu Tai looked at his great-nephew with great joy. The more he looked, the more he felt that he had wasted his time on the child over the past few years.

"Jizhi, Brother Yan, the millet in this composted field is growing better and better..."
