Chapter 4: Etiquette and suffering

"But ... but little girls are not good at drinking!" Yong Ruo was struggling to die for the temptation of silver and famous thorns.
"Girls can also drink tea. I ordered a lot of dishes, and the girls can also taste the craftsmanship of the chef in this restaurant." Feng Liang's smile became more and more reserved, and his eyes were calm again.
Ordered a lot of dishes ... Yong Ruo surrendered and decided to stay and eat well.
Eating meals and chatting, but did not let you □□! Is there anything I can't accompany? Did you spend less time with your customers? !! Anyway, the brown rice porridge that I drank during dinner was already digested and my stomach was hungry!
"That being the case, it's better to respect a little girl than to obey." Only food and love can't be disappointed!
"Girl please!" Feng Liao still held one hand behind her, and the other hand spread out toward the table. The smile on her face became more gentle and flawless.
There is a large round table in the middle of the elegant room.
At this time, there were eight cold dishes on the round table, including candied dates, fried peanuts, cold fungus, and dried bamboo shoots, as well as sausage slices, bacon, smoked chicken, and smoked rabbits. Four sips, four sips, it's mouth watering.
Since deciding to accompany food and chat, Yong Ruo put aside the aunt and sat politely at the table with his back to the side wall and the window to the right.
Feng Liang smiled and sat down opposite her. He actually took the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Yongruo himself.
Yong Ruozuo was astonished when he was flattered, and said, "How many people have Fengcha grown up to have tea?" She could see that he was not very proficient at pouring tea, but his hands were stable and there was no accident of pouring tea on the table.
After pouring the tea, Feng Gongzi poured himself a glass of wine.
Your son-in-law's etiquette is elegant, except that he is not proficient in pouring tea, the rest is as smooth and natural as every move, with a classic subtle beauty that looks pleasing to the eye. But if he wanted to accompany him to play this set of etiquette, Yong Ruo would feel uncomfortable-I just want to gobble it up and happily, and I don't want to be a lady!
So, instead of waiting for Feng Gongzi to raise a glass, raise a shovel, and let the guests go, she picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched a piece of sausage into her mouth, chewed with her eyes closed, and immediately filled her mouth with meat and oil.
Wow ... she felt contented in her heart: it was so delicious that she shed tears!
She came through last winter and hasn't known the flesh for a long time!
Seeing that she picked up the chopsticks and ate directly, Feng Liao apparently stayed.
But seeing Yong Ruo's contented face, he felt interesting again, and simply folded his hands in front of him casually, sitting there very squarely and elegantly, watching her eat with a smile.
After eating a slice of sausage, Yong Ruo put it in his mouth, chewed it carefully, swallowed slowly, and his happiness rose sharply.
Looking up at Feng Liao's posture, she took the time to add vegetables and said, "Feng Gongzi feels strange? Obviously I speak very elegantly, why don't I even know the basic dining etiquette?"
Feng Liang's lips fluttered slightly, her eyes flashed with a smile, and she humbly asked her for advice: "You have this question. And you didn't call yourself" little girl ", you started saying" I "."
Yong Ruo caught a piece of bacon, smiled slightly, and smiled unpredictably: "The existence of etiquette has its own value and reason. However, etiquette is also a thing that restrains people. Why restraint all the time? "Put the bacon in your mouth and chew it carefully.
Feng Liang leaned forward slightly: "What's the answer?"
Yong Ruo slowly swallowed the bacon in his mouth, and then smiled and said, "These words can only be understood, but not uttered. The son-in-law, respected and noble, looks at a flower girl, and the little woman is so impressed that this is the only reason The son-in-law said a big truth. The son-in-law's wisdom is good, but the weak and the poor are poor. Why should a small woman explain this statement? " Feudal etiquette's restraint and destruction of human nature is the consensus of modern society, but she would never dare to say those words of "no monarch, no father, no uprising".
Feng Liao looked at her for a moment, then frowned and fell into deep thought.
Yong Ruo continued to enjoy the food, and tasted the remaining cold dishes carefully.
The hostess brought the man to serve hot dishes, and Feng Gongzi was still in a daze.
Hot dishes are served on one end. Duanwei, the owner said once the name of the dish: Gongbao chicken, crispy duck, jar meat, squirrel sea bass, stir-fried shrimp, red mutton, simmered yam, mapo tofu; also stewed pigeon soup, radish minced pork Porridge with three fresh dumplings and shiitake lamb buns. A table full of food, including several cuisines, flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, long in the soil.
Yong Ruo lamented at the bottom of his heart: Ah! With so many dishes, how can two people finish eating? !!
She glanced at Feng Liang who had not returned to her, and thought: Can I pack and take away what I haven't finished?
She was thirsty. She filled herself with a bowl of pigeon soup and drank slowly while observing Feng Liao's expression.
Feng Liao was obviously in deep thought. The tip of his right index finger, unconsciously drawing a circle on the back of his left index finger; sometimes nodded slightly, sometimes shook his head slightly; eyebrows wrinkled, sometimes spread out ... Yong Ruo laughed in his heart: This Feng Gongzi is really a hardworking Good student for thinking! The little movement of his fingers in a circle is also quite cute.
Yong Ruo drank a bowl of soup and tasted the hot dishes again, so delicious that she almost swallowed her tongue.
Then she saw Feng Liao's face gradually appearing ashamed, and in the end she was as if she was being ravaged, and she said, "Okay! Well said!" His expression was very excited, he stood up and solemnly faced Yong Ruo. Bowing her hand, "The girl's words are really deafening! I've been taught!"
Yong Ruo smiled, and also got up and gave a gift: "My son is polite!" It is indeed a noble son, it is really polite!
Feng Liao's excitement had not yet passed, and she said, "The girl said it very well, this word can only be understood, not uttered. Haha ..."
I didn't know what I thought of after he said it, he suddenly laughed, and he couldn't help looking. After laughing, he held up his wine glass and held up towards Yongruo: "Just for this, be a big mess!"
Yong Ruoke smiled, raised his tea cup, bumped into his wine glass, and took a sip: "The son is polite! The little girl is ashamed." The Feng son was so excited that he really figured it out, or Accidentally thinking crooked?
Feng Liao looked at her tea cup with regret: "Doesn't the girl really drink a little?" He pointed to a small jug on the table. "The jug contains plum wine, which is exclusively for female guests. Yes, not so intoxicating. "
Yong Ruo firmly refused: "Thank you for your good intentions. Little girls are really not good at drinking."
Feng Liao no longer reluctantly.
He drank the wine in his glass, and while pouring himself, he looked at Yong Ruo with a smile: "Why does the girl say 'Why be bound at all times'? 'I'? '
Yong Ruo said, "It's a restraint to call yourself a" little girl "or" I ". For example, in the modern society of the previous life, ordinary people call themselves" 朕 "," Main Palace ", and" Mourning Family. "Who cares?
Feng Liang drank the wine, then nodded, and continued to pour the wine: "It makes sense!" Hold the pot with one hand, raise the glass towards Yong Ruo with one hand, and drink the wine in the glass. Then he no longer sat upright, but relaxed back against the back of his chair, his hands resting on the armrest.
"If you don't drink, eat more vegetables!" He said.
Yong Ruo nodded and took Mapo tofu to eat. After eating it, I put a piece together. One more clip ...
Feng Liang looked for a moment and asked her: "Girls like tofu?"
Love to eat tofu? Yong Ruo was stunned by the extended meaning that jumped out of his heart, and was almost caught. I swallowed the tofu in my mouth, and said positively, "It's okay. In fact, I like to eat delicious food. I always pick tofu and eat it with some care ..."
"What are you thinking about?"
Yong Ruo showed a bright smile: "Feng Gongzi, if these dishes are not finished, can I pack the rest and take them back?" There were no fast food boxes or food bags in this era, and I do n’t know what to use. Natural Pick up the rest for easy carrying.
Feng Liao was puzzled, and asked, "What to do with the leftovers? Here ..." Suddenly, he paused, and hesitated, "... Do you want to bring ... to someone else?"
"Yes!" Yong Ruo admits generously, "Feng Gongzi, this is part of folk suffering! And it ’s not for others, but for my family. Do you know how long our family has n’t eaten meat? Three years Too much! Tonight, I have cooked the last bit of brown rice in the house. Everyone has a bowl of thick porridge, with a little salty vegetables, can only eat half full. And this is already our holiday meal. It's sad. "
Feng Gongzi was silent, imagining such a situation, for a long time before he said, "What is your family doing? Why have you reached such a situation?"
Yong Ruo thought for a moment: If I told him the situation, would he get justice for my family and get a little compensation? !! She inherited the memories and skills of her predecessor, so she knew very well about the fall of the Yong family.
With a little thought, she made a quick decision: Gamble!
The best bet wins, and the loss is no loss.
"Our family was doing well ..." She gave herself a bowl of pigeon soup and took a sip. "But almost three years ago ..."
