Chapter 143 Did you do it on purpose?
Wei Ling knew that this move of his had calmed down some people who were ready to make trouble.
His movements just now were smooth and flowing, and he did not use any internal energy yet his sword skills were as smooth as a butterfly flying through flowers. This was not achieved overnight. He just wanted to warn those who had improper thoughts to consider their own weight before acting rashly!
It can be considered as a warning to others.
"Why are you all looking at me? Eat meat, eat meat!" Wei Ling said with a smile to everyone whose eyes were fixed on him.
Everyone then lowered their heads, and even a few people with ulterior motives quickly retracted their gazes.
"Did you come up with this idea on impulse or has it been planned for a long time?" Su Jixiang asked in a low voice after everyone continued to eat.
She had only arranged a roasted whole lamb and had never expected Wei Ling to do this out of the blue. To be honest, she had just been accompanying Wei Ling against her will because she had no idea what he wanted to do and could only guess his intentions based on his actions. Fortunately, she was smart and did not guess wrong, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing in front of everyone.
"Madam, please guess." Wei Ling said with a smile.
Even though he drank a glass of wine, he still didn't let go of Su Jixiang's hand.
You can say it or not! Su Jixiang rolled her eyes silently in her heart. She didn't really want to know!
"You can let go now!" Su Jixiang pulled, but failed to pull his hand back.
The way these two people were whispering to each other was seen by others as a sign of affection.
"The general is so good to his wife!" Qian Feng said with a smile with emotion.
When he sent the palace maids to Mangcheng before, he felt that the general seemed to treat Su Jixiang differently. Now that he thought about it, the general had indeed been eyeing Su Jixiang for a long time!
After he said this, everyone's eyes fell on Wei Ling and Su Jixiang. Seeing that everyone was looking at the couple, Su Jixiang could only turn his head slightly and force a slight smile.
"My wife is shy." Wei Ling looked at everyone and said with a smile, "She is embarrassed! Everyone, please stop looking at my wife!"
Everyone laughed, and Su Jixiang was so embarrassed that she could dig out a two-bedroom apartment with her toes... She was indeed embarrassed. For the sake of this doting wife character she casually said, she was now acting with Wei Ling all the time! It really fits the saying that life is like a play, and it all depends on acting!
"This mutton should be eaten while it's hot, before the oil solidifies, so that it will be smooth and tender." Su Jixiang said quickly.
Everyone then turned their attention back to the mutton they had been given.
Su Jixiang also prepared two kinds of dipping sauces for everyone, one dry and the other wet, but no matter which one, it fully brought out the freshness and fragrance of the roasted lamb.
In the north, it is not a new thing to eat roasted lamb, but it is difficult to roast it so tender and juicy, with the skin and meat having a charred aroma. This especially tests the chef's control over the heat.
Add to that the two dipping sauces prepared by Su Jixiang himself, and no matter which flavor you choose, it is irresistible and unforgettable!
Even some ladies who don't usually eat mutton tried it a little after being persuaded by their husbands, and after trying it, they completely fell in love with it!
The mutton dipped in the sauce has completely lost its original fishy smell, and what remains is fresh and tender!
"If you ask me, the Madam arranged it well!" Someone laughed, "This roasted lamb and this hot pot are the best I've ever tasted in my life!"
When he said this, everyone nodded in agreement.
"You all are happy because my wife's hard work has not been wasted." Wei Ling said with a smile, "After today, you all will be familiar with my wife. If you have time, you can come to my house and have a rest."
Everyone looked at each other, stunned for a moment, and then everyone responded.
So the general is inviting everyone to come over!
Before the Chinese New Year, who would come empty-handed?
A few people who were quick-witted started to make some calculations.
In addition, Wei Ling said in front of everyone that his wife deserved the best things in the world. What did he mean by that? He meant that everyone should give gifts to his wife!
Everyone said that Wei Ling was cold-blooded and cold-faced, who only knew how to fight wars, kill people, and capture cities, but no one expected that he would become so clichéd after getting married!
Many people had their own thoughts in their minds, and they all looked at each other at the same time.
Zhao Xiuwan has been in a bad mood.
Before, Bihe's dress directly suppressed her, and now Wei Ling dotes on Su Jixiang. These two are lowly palace maids, so why is it that the rich one is incompetent and the favored one is incompetent?
She glanced at Bihe who was sitting at the table behind her. She didn't know who arranged the seat for Bihe, but she placed her not far from her, so close to the main table.
Isn't it obvious that Bihe is suppressing her all the time?
She really wanted to splash red paint all over Bihe, but when she looked at Wei Ling sitting on the main seat, she didn't dare.
After all, this banquet was organized by Su Jixiang. If Su Jixiang did not please Wei Ling, it would be fine. But now Wei Ling obviously holds Su Jixiang at the top of his heart. If I ruin the banquet arranged by Su Jixiang, I am afraid Wei Ling will not let me off.
She quickly glanced at Qian Feng and felt more and more that her husband, who only focused on eating mutton, was nothing!
In terms of official rank, he is not as high as Wei Ling, and is even inferior to Chu Feng, Nangong Rui and Xie Yingfeng. In terms of appearance... although he is considered to be handsome, he is far inferior to Chu Feng and Nangong Rui, not to mention Wei Ling.
When it comes to wealth, he is even more so. Asking him for some money is like asking for his life.
Nangong Rui and Chu Feng were not married, so they were not invited by Su Jixiang this time, but Zhao Xiuwan had met these two people.
Although people may seem harmonious during a meal, in fact, everyone has their own thoughts.
After lunch, Wei Ling took Su Jixiang away. The rest of the people who wanted to play stayed, and those who didn't want to play also left. Most of those who stayed were playing mahjong.
"Shouldn't we wait until the end for the banquet?" Su Jixiang looked at Wei Ling in confusion after getting on the carriage. "Wouldn't it be a bit impolite to just leave like this?"
"I am the biggest in Mang City, I can do whatever I want." Wei Ling said with a slow smile.
Su Jixiang was stunned at first, and then looked at Wei Ling as if he understood something.
"So you want to..." She paused in the middle of her sentence, unable to find the right words. She thought for a moment and said, "Do you want them to think that you are arrogant and insolent now?"
"Madam is very intelligent and I really like her." Wei Ling praised.
"Forget it..." Su Jixiang thought for a moment and then shook his head, "You have been arrogant for a long time... You must have other intentions."
It was Wei Ling's nature to leave after eating. If he really stayed and pretended to be nice, it would be unlike him.
