Chapter 26 A little plan to introduce the urn
It was already noon, but the weather was not very good at all due to the sea breeze. Looking through the window, it started to rain outside. ( )
Zhengyao and Tang Danni walked down from the second floor slowly with their hands in hand. Their attitude was very close, and they looked like a couple in love.
Of course, if this situation occurs in the Ming Dynasty, it will definitely attract criticism. If someone sees it, he will inevitably speak out and point fingers. However, this is a Portuguese castle, a place for foreigners, so there is no
What people say and what they talk about is actually attracted by envious gazes of a group of people. Seeing Zhengyao and Tang Danni walking, they seemed to think they were really compatible.
Going downstairs and coming to the restaurant, Zhengyao sat down next to Tang Danni, greeted Brewer, Mickey and others, Tang Danni nodded, and immediately a group of people carried the plates to the dining table.
Come.
After a while, the table was filled with dining plates, and when he looked closely, Zhengyao couldn't help but be stunned.
"Come on, Mr. Li, this is our watercress. I wonder if Mr. Li doesn't mind eating it? If it doesn't suit you, then I will ask the kitchen to make it again!" Brewer asked very friendly on the surface.
.
In fact, when Zhengyao and Tang Danni walked down the stairs hand in hand, Brewer also understood that Zhengyao would never stand on his side. At this time, he naturally no longer thought about winning over Zhengyao.
.But he is a good person who is very good at disguising, and what he thinks is completely different from what he does.
Of course, Zhengyao must also know what Brewer was thinking at the moment. The meaning of what he said was actually very simple, just to tell Zhengyao that this is a watercress. You have never seen it in the Ming Dynasty and don’t know how to eat it.
, at that time, he will be embarrassed. In fact, his original intention is to embarrass Zhengyao, so as to temporarily vent his dissatisfaction with Zhengyao.
Seeing this, Tang Danni immediately waved to the maid beside her, and at the same time she spoke Portuguese.
Although Zhengyao didn't understand what Tang Danni was saying, he should have guessed what it meant. So Zhengyao immediately raised his hand and said, "Danni. There is no need to worry about it. Actually, I have liked eating these dishes for a long time!"
"Are you sure you really like eating these dishes instead of saying that if I don't want to bother you?" Tang Danni said intently at Zhengyao, her eyes full of questioning.
Tang Danni understood that Zhengyao was a good person. Therefore, she would think that Zhengyao decided to eat these watercress because she didn't want to bother herself.
Zhengyao smiled and said with a slight nose: "To be honest, when I was in the capital, I often deal with some foreign consuls, missionaries and others, so I would go into Western restaurants from time to time and be fooled by you.
After careful calculation, it seems that I haven’t eaten watercress for more than three months. Now when I look at the watercres in front of me, I’m really a little jealous.”
Zhengyao said the same thing as the truth. Those who didn't know it thought that Zhengyao really often had dinner with some foreigners. In fact, they didn't know that Zhengyao had never contacted any foreigners before. As for his so-called Western
I have never seen the dishes again after I arrived in the Ming Dynasty, let alone eaten them.
But having never seen or eaten in the Ming Dynasty does not mean that Zhengyao has never seen or eaten. You should know that before traveling through time, especially when Zhengyao was in college, although he didn't take much class, he had to eat, drink and play.
He didn't touch him much. At that time, it was even more crazy when the weekend came. Today, Dicos and KFC tomorrow, he would go to the coffee shop from time to time, and then to the Western restaurants. He basically went all over the high-end restaurants in Chengdu, of course.
The money was also spent a lot.
Therefore, when Zhengyao saw these fisheries in front of him, such as oysters, steaks, and tomato sauce and fries, he was no longer surprised. The reason why he showed a surprised expression when he saw it was actually because of his
I didn’t expect that I could eat these things in the Ming Dynasty in the 16th century, so I naturally felt incredible.
"Oh? I really didn't realize that Mr. Li actually has such a research on our Western things. It used to be Western coffee, but now it is Western dishes. It's amazing. I really admire it!"
I don't know if what Bruel said comes from the heart, but what he said is indeed the case. A man from the Ming Dynasty, who had never left the land of the Ming Dynasty, had such a deep understanding of things outside the Ming Dynasty. It is true.
It's convincing.
Zhengyao was not humble either. Seeing that all the dishes had been served, he said, "Your Highness, the beautiful princess, can your prince have a meal now?"
As he said that, Zhengyao immediately put a prepared scarf in front of him, then held a fork in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. He looked around and looked at Tang Danni and Bruer, ready to eat at any time.
However, Zhengyao's move did surprise Brewer. He saw that Zhengyao's actions were so standard. Even Tang Danni began to wonder if Zhengyao had gone abroad to undergo training in dining etiquette.
Seeing the two of them staring at him at the same time, Zhengyao couldn't help but smile and said, "What? Do you still have to wait for someone?"
Tang Danni recovered and immediately said, "No, no, no, but I didn't expect that you actually understand the dining etiquette of us Westerners, which is really beyond my imagination."
"Yes! I think so too!"
Brewer didn't even say this king at this moment, and just said it to me, which was enough to show that he was obviously a little out of control at this moment.
As for Mickey, it was indeed his honor to be able to sit here and share lunch with Don Danny Brewer today, so he never said a word from beginning to end.
Finally, this sumptuous lunch started with a burst of laughter, but this lunch lasted for quite a long time. Zhengyao looked back at the Western clock hanging on the wall and it was already 3:30 in the afternoon.
When Zhengyao and Tang Danni went downstairs, they saw that the Western clock was displayed at less than twelve o'clock!
After eating a meal for more than three hours, this Western meal was really too troublesome.
After that, the maids began to clean up the dining table. Zhengyao followed Tang Danni to sit on the sofa beside him for a short rest.
After the dining table was cleaned up, Tang Danni finally stood up and said to Mickey: "Uncle Mickey, are you free this afternoon? I want to ask you to help me with something?"
"work?"
Mickey looked at Tang Danni in surprise, then looked at Brewer again, as if asking for Brewer's opinion.
Brewer pouted and said, "In the afternoon, a batch of goods sent from England will be shipped. Since the princess asks you for help if you have something to do, please help. Then let me personally receive this batch of goods!"
At this time, Brewer seemed very happy. He didn't even ask what he wanted to help, so he asked Mickey to help.
However, Zhengyao understood that there must be a reason for this Brewer to do this. Maybe his real purpose was to keep Mickey behind.
Seeing that Brewer agreed, Tang Danni said that she was going to the dock in the afternoon. So she immediately said, "The second uncle, go and do your business. I'll just talk to Uncle Mickey alone!"
Brewer didn't plan to ask what to do, but just shrugged, then stood up and said, "Well, you guys are here to do your business, I'll go to the dock first. Mickey, remember, I'll help the princess with good work.
!”
After saying that, Brewer did not forget to give Mickey a look, and Zhengyao saw it all. Then Brewer turned around and walked out of the house.
Seeing that Brewer had left, Mickey immediately asked, "Your Highness, the beautiful princess, I wonder where Mickey can serve you?"
Zhengyao said: "Don't worry, the princess will definitely leave it to you to do, but it's better to go upstairs first! There are so many people here."
"Well, it's easier to talk upstairs!" Tang Danni also nodded and said yes.
Although Mickey felt something was wrong at this moment, there was something that could not be said openly and had to go upstairs? But after thinking about it carefully, the princess's words were orders, and he, a servant, dared not ignore him.
Seeing Zhengyao and Tang Danni go upstairs holding hands again, he also seemed extremely reluctant to follow him.
After going upstairs, Zhengyao and Tang Danni went straight to Tang Danni's bedroom, but Mickey stopped when she walked to the door and did not walk in.
"Beautiful... His Highness, the beautiful and noble princess, this... this is your bedroom. I...I can't go in!"
Mickey looks honest and obviously still avoids this place.
Although Brewer's purpose of keeping him was as Zheng Yao had guessed. He had to keep an eye on Zheng Yao and Tang Danni's every move, sometimes he could not keep an eye on him. After all, the princess's bedroom is not
Anyone can enter, they have their own basic etiquette, and even if they are foreigners, they are very open.
"Uncle Mickey, what are you doing? Come in quickly. I have a big box here and ask someone to help you move. How can you move if you don't come in?" Seeing Mickey standing at the door motionless, Tang Danni was very anxious.
Said.
After Tang Danni finished speaking, Zhengyao continued, "Come here quickly, I can't hold on anymore. This big box is so heavy!"
Mickey was still standing at the door. He only saw Tang Danni squatting down for a while and getting up again. It seemed that she was carrying something, but she never saw Zhengyao's shadow. It was probably Zhengyao was carrying the other side of the box. And the two of them carried it.
I haven't lifted it for so long, and it seems that the box is indeed very heavy.
But after thinking about it, he always felt that it was not good to enter Tang Danni's room, so he said, "This...this is not good! Your Highness, I'll go and call other servants to help!"
"No need, no need, no need, no, no! It will take so much time to wait until you go down and call someone to come up. Moreover, all the things in my box are treasures collected from all over the world. If they are broken by those servants, then it won't be
OK. You'll come, Uncle Mickey, come quickly, I can't hold on anymore!"
As he was talking, Tang Danni actually started to moan. This voice really made people think a lot.
"Your Highness the Prince told me to keep an eye on Your Highness the Princess and the boy named Li. If you don't go in now, how can you call You Buli? If you make a fork, wouldn't your Highness the Prince say that I'm not doing well? No!
I can't care about that much anymore. Anyway, His Highness the Princess also allows me to enter the house, so I will go in!"
Mickey stood at the door and thought for a while, and finally made a decision. Then he took a resolute step and walked towards Tang Danni with great strides.
However, when Mickey walked into the bedroom, a "bang" sounded suddenly. Mickey subconsciously looked back and saw that the door was locked in an instant, and at the same time, he saw a person standing at the door.
And this person is nothing else, it is Zhengyao!
