144 Eating Soft Rice 1
In addition to Su Yu and Su Jin, the Su family also has two unmarried daughters, one of whom was born by the mistress Shen, who was thirteen years old this year, and the other was born by the concubine Liu, who was thirteen years old this year.
At this time, Su Yu and his two sisters celebrated their father's birthday in the main hall. The father was kind and filial, the brothers were friendly and the sisters were respectful, and the family was happy. Even if Shen was unhappy because of his nephew's affairs, he would force himself to smile in front of the guests.
Only Su Jin, the former concubine and now the prince-consort, stayed in the flower hall far away from the main hall as a guest, and accompanied the young men who had nothing to do with him.
Of course, Su Jin didn't care about this.
Although he came in the name of birthday celebrations, he did not want to see anyone from the Su family.
His goal is to make the entire Su family disappear from the Xiling Emperor Capital within one year without leaving any grass.
Having defeated the Su family, there is a bigger goal.
A cold and cold light flashed through his eyes, but Su Jin lowered his eyes and ate with a calm and elegant look, as pleasing to the eyes as if flowing clouds and water.
When you raise your hands and feet, you are more elegant and dignified than the noble sons of a noble family of good origins.
The hall was quiet for a moment.
Zhang Huaiyuan pointed at the chopsticks in his hand and pointed at the food wrapped in lotus leaves in the middle of the table.
"Does the prince-consin want to try this lotus leaf rice?"
When everyone heard this, they raised their eyes and looked in the direction pointed by his chopsticks.
Su Jin smiled on his lips, but his smile was not enough to reach his eyes: "Of course you can try all delicious things."
Zhang Huaiyuan waved and signaled the maid who served in the hall to come and open the lotus leaves, and then explained lightly: "There is actually an allusion to cook the lotus leaves. Are you interested in listening to it?"
"Oh?" Su Jin seemed to be interested and looked at him with a scrupulous look. "Young Master Zhang might as well talk."
Others knew that Zhang Huaiyuan's purpose was impure, but no one spoke to stop him.
The story of cooking rice with lotus leaves...
All the scholars present are scholars, but their knowledge is high and low, and they have heard of all the allusions. Therefore, they have a little interest in listening to stories and some of the meaning of wanting to read jokes.
"It is said that there was a rich woman in the past who kept a young man..."
As the first sentence came out, the air suddenly became quiet during the meal.
After everyone looked at each other, they lowered their eyes, with an indescribable expression on their faces.
Zhang Huaiyuan smiled faintly: "This rich woman is old and has a bad teeth. Once, the waiter in the restaurant asked considerately, should the meal be soft or hard."
Su Jin smiled and continued: "Since the teeth are not very good, I naturally have to eat something soft."
"Yes, that man is also a considerate wife, so he said casually, "You must be soft." Zhang Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing, "Later, the waiter said, "The lady has a bad teeth and is normal to eat softness. The young man is young, so should he also eat soft food?"
After the words fell, the hall was silent.
Zhang Huaiyuan looked at Su Jin with a smile, "Do you want the prince-consort to taste the taste of the lotus leaf rice?"
Su Jin nodded, picked up a small piece of rice with chopsticks and placed it on the plate in front of him, lowered his head and tasted it, "It's very good."
After the words came, he looked up at Zhang Huaiyuan, "So Mr. Zhang said this allusion to mock me for being a soft-hearted person?"
