Chapter 82 Rat Path
As soon as this topic was brought up, Chen Ming became very angry. He gritted his teeth and said, "Our family is all honest people and we never have any grudges with others. But for some reason, yesterday, a child tricked my Dabao into going to the black pine forest and pushed him down. The hillside was covered with mud and water, and there were many injuries on my face and body. Last night, someone actually poured excrement and water into my yard. These people were really outrageous and bad." He paused and said, " Someone is trying to take advantage of my two parrots, and if we don’t give them to them, they must be taking revenge.”
When several people from other villages heard this, they realized that this was all Hu Laowu's style. It turned out that he wanted to sell someone else's parrot for money, but if he didn't give it, he threatened him. It was understandable why Manager Luo suddenly asked them to come to the Chen family for dinner. This was obviously to support the Chen family.
They glanced at Hu Laowu with interest, who was pretending to be nothing. Since he refused to admit it, these people followed Chen Ming and Luo Xiaoguan to reprimand the people who had done bad things.
Manager Luo snorted coldly, "If you offend Uncle Chen's family, you will offend my old Luo family. If I find the person behind the scenes, I will definitely take care of him."
Hu Laowu also said indignantly, "Which children bullied Dabao? Dabao is my grand-nephew. If you bully him, you are bullying me, Hu Laowu. Just wait, I will ask those children to come tonight I apologize to you as a gift. It’s so outrageous that there are still people who dare to bully my relatives, Hu Laowu, in Xiangluo Village!”
Manager Luo glanced at Hu Laowu and then said to Gao Lizheng, "Uncle Gao, my home is a bit far away from your village. Please help me look after Brother Chen's home. If someone bullies his family, please lend a hand to help." Help. My father and I will remember this."
Gao Li was busy nodding in agreement.
Hu Laowu also rushed to say, "Uncle Luo, please don't worry. Not only will Brother Gao look after Brother Chen's house, I will also help look after it."
Manager Luo added, "There are also the two parrots from Brother Chen's house. These are also the birds that my young master likes. He will let them play when he comes back to Tangyuan. If anyone is greedy and dares to take advantage of them, don't "Secret Uncle Chen's family doesn't agree, and I, Mr. Luo, don't agree either."
Hu Laowu rushed to say again, "Don't worry, Uncle Luo. I, Hu Laowu, will also keep an eye on your little master. I won't agree to anyone who dares to have ideas about those two parrots."
Landlord Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud. He picked up a braised quail egg and said to the others, "Try it. This soft egg is quite tasty once it's been cleaned."
Everyone laughed again. Hu Laowu didn't seem to hear it, so he also laughed a few times.
Chen Afu happened to bring over a plate of braised pork. Seeing Hu Laowu like this, he seriously despised him. This kind of shameless person can trample people into dust when faced with people who are weaker than themselves. When facing someone stronger than yourself, you will automatically fall into the dust.
Manager Luo said with a half-smile, "I have remembered these two promises made by Uncle Hu Wu, and I accept your love. If someone plots against Uncle Chen's family again, or dares to take advantage of his parrot, I won't find anyone else. Looking for you first."
Hu Laowu wiped his sweat, smiled and nodded in agreement.
Yang Mingyuan understood that the Chen family was hosting the Hongmen Banquet today. It turned out that it was Hu Laowu who bullied the Chen family, and Uncle Luo came to help support him. He also smiled and said, "Although I, Yang, am a businessman, I am not talented and I know a lot of people in the yamen. If anyone bullies Uncle Chen in the future, Uncle Chen will come to the county to find me. I will invite a few of my A good brother helps.”
Chen Ming was very excited and stood up to toast Luo Xiaoguanshi and Yang Mingyuan. After that, he toasted to everyone at the table, except Hu Laowu.
Chen Ye also toasted everyone's drinks in the name of Brother Chen Ming, but did not toast Hu Laowu either. He felt bitter in his heart. Hu Laowu obviously didn't accept his fault for this matter. It was in vain that he had been the "permanent worker" of the Hu family for so many years, and Hu Laowu's respect for him turned out to be an illusion. I bragged with my second brother, but in the end the second brother relied on Uncle Luo and the people at this table to settle the matter...
When Hu Laowu saw that neither brother respected him, he felt angry but could do nothing. Then he found a step for himself, picked up the bowl, and toasted everyone on the table with wine in the name of Chen's relatives.
All the guests and guests enjoying this meal enjoyed themselves, except of course Hu Laowu. All the dishes on the table were popular, even several plates of cucumber salad were eaten. Everyone kept praising Mrs. Chen's cooking skills.
Landlord Yu stood up and joked, "Brother Chen, we all like to eat your food. Let us come here to gather more often in the future."
Everyone else laughed and said, "It's absolutely true."
Chen Ming quickly expressed his position that he would definitely invite distinguished guests to come to the humble house more often in the future.
Everyone left one after another. Seeing that the things they should do were done, Mr. Luo also wanted to take Luo Mingcheng and Luo Mei with him. But the children were having so much fun that they didn't want to leave. He asked Xiaoqing to serve Brother Cheng and Mei Yatou well, and he went back first.
Chen Afu put away the dishes and said to himself that the matter of being bullied in his family was solved just like this.
Even if Hu Laowu didn't admit his mistake today, the slap in the face was already very loud. Based on our current abilities, this is already the best result.
It is impossible for the Luo family to completely fall out with Hu Laowu because of the Chen family. After all, some things, like the Luo family or those who have made their own instructions, are not easy to do clearly and must be achieved through people like Hu Laowu. So no matter how much these people hate Hu Laowu, they will still get along with him.
Hu Laowu is able to survive till now, and he does have his way. He is able to bend and stretch, and shamelessly builds relationships with those in power, which he interprets to the extreme. Such a person is more powerful than a foolhardy gangster.
After everyone left, Yang Mingyuan and Chen Ye did not leave. Yang Mingyuan had business to discuss, and Chen Ye wanted to hear what business they had to discuss.
Chen Agui pulled Chen Ye and whispered, "Dad, let's go."
Chen Ye thought about it and got up reluctantly. Seeing that Chen Ming and others did not try to keep him, he had to help Old Lady Chen leave together.
Yang Mingyuan came straight to the point and proposed to buy the recipe of golden pork with sixty taels of silver. He was embarrassed to say that he had someone make the sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice dates. Although the taste was slightly worse than what Chen Afu sent, it was still pretty good. But the golden pork, no matter how they made it, could not make that taste.
After Yang Chao came to the Chen family as a guest last time, he clamored to eat golden pork every day. Yang Mingyuan listened to the description of Old Uncle Yang and felt that it was similar to the garlic-flavored pork tenderloin made in the restaurant.
Old Yang shook his head and said, no, the garlic pork tenderloin is also fragrant, but the color after frying is not as good, the skin is not as crispy, and the meat is not as tender.
He asked Old Yang to describe it to the chef of the restaurant, but the meat made by the chef was not as delicious.
He wanted to come to Chen's house to try this dish a few days ago, but he was delayed because of something at home.
I finally ate it today, and it is indeed much better than the garlic pork tenderloin made by their restaurant.
