It was the butler guarding the door who ca out to pick him up under the old master’s orders.
“Mr. Su, the banquet has just begun. The old master invited you in. He said that it’s lively with more people,” the butler said in a friendly tone.
Having learned from his mistakes, Su Cunyi did not stand on ceremony this ti. “Thank you!”
Before he left, he turned back to look at where his car was parked.
He recalled the ancestral tablets in the trunk.
He would return after a short while and then bring his ancestors back to the ancestral hall.
It didn’t matter.
The butler added a chair for Su Cunyi.
He was very observant and added a chair diagonally opposite Xu Mingzhi.
That was the seat furthest away from Madam Xu, but he could still see Madam Xu.
Su Cunyi and Xu Mingzhi were satisfied.
It was past ten o’clock in the evening. The sll of wine wafted around the dining table. The dumplings for New Year’s Eve were served.
Cao Zhuzhu was stunned when the super luxurious dumpling plate was served.
It seed to be made of jade, and there were four divine beasts carved on the edge of the plate. The exquisite craftsmanship completely decorated the “ordinary” New Year’s Eve dumplings into a dish that ordinary people could not afford!
Cao Zhuzhu was sitting next to Su Ji. She had a few drinks and her face was a little hot. She leaned her head on Su Ji’s shoulder. “Did you eat like this last year?”
Su Ji nodded casually.
Cao Zhuzhu:
Corrupted, too corrupted.
Su Ji introduced them to her. “There are a total of three kinds of dumplings. Eating different ones has different anings. They provide good fortune, good health…”
She asked Du ilan, “what’s the other one?”
Du ilan smiled. “It’s love luck. Last year, Su Ji had the most love luck.”
Everyone at the table burst into laughter.
Su Ji facepald. It was indeed a dark history that she did not want to recall.
She tightened her grip on her chopsticks. Tonight, she wanted to eat at least ten pieces of fortune!
Pei Huai lightly shook the wine glass in his hand and smiled deeply.
Cao Zhuzhu noticed that the dumplings on the plate were all white and thick at first glance. However, if one looked carefully, they would find that the color of the filling inside was slightly different through the crystal clear skin.
“Ah, I know,” she said to Su Ji. “Red dates are for love, lotus seeds are for wealth, and longans are for health…?”
Her family ate like this when she was young.
Su Ji pondered for a mont. “Sothing like that.”
Opposite him, Pei Song had been paying attention to his girlfriend. He raised his chin at Bill with a face that said, “isn’t my girlfriend cute?” .
Cao Zhuzhu glared at him.
But Cao Zhuzhu soon understood why Pei Song found her cute.
The Pei family’s dumplings didn’t have red dates, lotus seeds, or longans.
Chef Pei Jia made three different fillings for the dumplings.
The steak and caviar filling represented fortune.
The sea urchin fillings represented health.
Matsutake and beef fillings represented love.
In fact, last year, the king crab filling represented fortune, but this year, Su Ji was pregnant, so Du ilan specially asked the kitchen to change it to steak and caviar.
Cao Zhuzhu thought that the plate on which the dumplings were placed was too decadent, but when she tasted the filling, she realized that there was sothing even more decadent…
Half an hour later, Su Ji put her chopsticks aside and bent over to support herself on the table. Her stomach was stuffed.
Pei Huai patted her back worriedly. “Don’t force yourself.”
Su Ji flung his hand away.
Nineteen out of the twenty she had were matsutake and beef!
The only thing that was different was the grouper!
Cao Zhuzhu, on the other hand, was the exact opposite. She ate ten steak and caviar dumplings.
She thought that she could see the difference in the color and that she could cheat, but she realized how difficult it was when she actually did it.
However, she felt that it was good. There was nothing happier than earning more money.
However, Second Master Pei was very anxious.
Originally, he thought that if his little girl ate a lot of matsutake and beef, he could use this as an excuse to half-jokingly talk about getting married next year.
But this was great.
He crossed his arms and wanted to say sothing, but he stopped several tis. In the end, he asked Pei Huai unhappily, “did Su Ji eat all the matsutake and beef dumplings?”
Pei Huai glanced at him in a low voice. “So? Any objections?”
Pei Song:
He couldn’t afford to offend them.
Du ilan and Xu Mingzhi were drinking in a very good mood. Looking at the noisy children at the table, they felt very happy.
At this mont, the little ones had all gone to sleep after receiving a huge amount of money, and the adults had no qualms about drinking.
Su Cunyi had also moved to a nearby spot.
