Chapter 217 is finally here
It was Grandma Qian, who raised a basket with a smile.
"This is Laba porridge. The young lady asked the old slave to bring it here. Miss Gu has just come to our Fengkai County, and just happened to try our authentic Laba porridge to see how it is different from the girl's."
Gu Yundong was a little surprised, this Yao family brought her Laba porridge so well?
But Mama Qian quickly solved her confusion, "The young lady said that a few days ago, I came to Gu Ji with the young master to celebrate the opening of Miss Gu, and we hit it off with the girl. Unfortunately, there were many customers that day, business was booming, the girl was busy, and our family had few children. Madam also couldn't find a chance to talk to the girl."
As Qian Momo said, she took out an invitation, "Seeing that the girl's shop has stabilized in the past few days, the young lady thought about inviting the girl to the mansion as a guest. It happens that there is a plum garden in the Peng mansion, and plum blossoms are in this season. It was very beautiful. The young lady sent the old slave over to send the invitation to the girl, and also asked the girl not to refuse."
Gu Yundong' Huh? ' A sound, a guest? Invite her to enter the Peng Mansion to enjoy the plum blossoms?
No, no, no, she doesn't have the slightest bit of romance in her. A common man who only thinks about making money every day has no time to enjoy flowers.
That Yao Shi, she has no intention of dating.
Gu Yundong wanted to refuse, but Mammy Qian seemed to see her intention, so she added, "Girl Gu's cousin Gu Xian'er also misses her a lot, but it's not convenient for her to come out freely now, and Miss Gu just happens to be able to go. Look at her, sisters reminiscing."
Gu Yundong swallowed what he wanted to say in an instant.
She just said, I hate these big families who talk sloppily, why don't you just come to her in Gu Xian'er's name?
Gu Yundong took the Laba Porridge and the post, "Your young lady's sincere invitation, I will definitely go, thank you."
Mother Qian completed her task, and her smile became more sincere, "Then the old slave will go back first, and the girl will stay."
Gu Yundong smiled, and seeing her gone, the stakes came together, "Master, our shop is so prosperous that even the Peng Mansion brought you Laba porridge."
He really felt the business in the past two days. If it weren't for the limited number of owners, their shop might have been sold out as soon as they opened.
Gu Yundong just pinched the post and gave the Laba porridge to the stake, "Just right, you can share this Laba porridge."
"Give us something to eat?"
"Um."
Zhou Zhe couldn't wait to open the lid, his eyes lit up.
The Laba porridge in Pengfu is really different. There are many kinds of ingredients such as rice, ginkgo, walnut kernels, chestnuts, red dates, longan and so on.
Gu Yundong also glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and went back with the post.
Zhuangzi immediately hurriedly found the bowls and chopsticks to share with Zheng Gang.
Yongfu Village is very lively. The Laba Festival is a day to worship ancestors and gods, praying for a good harvest and auspiciousness. Every household more or less prepares Laba porridge, even if the ingredients are not abundant.
The workshop was not on holiday, but the Laba porridge that Gu Yundong asked Tong’s mother-in-law to cook in the morning was very sweet. She distributed a large bowl to everyone in the workshop for them to take home.
Everyone in the workshop looked at the laba porridge filled to the brim, and their smiles never fell.
Sure enough, working in the Gu family's workshop is not very good. After drinking porridge one by one, the work is even harder.
Gu Yundong was busy for two days, and almost forgot the date promised with Yao Shi.
