  Chapter 1740 See Uncle Again

  In the front yard of the Zhu Mansion on Fulu Street, after the uncle Zhu Shouren was verified, he and his two friends, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Cub, were invited into the noble guest room from the common room.

  It was very cold outside, and Zhu Shouren and the others couldn't help shivering while walking outside, but when they entered the expensive room, they felt a warmth rushing towards their faces. Being in the expensive room was like being in the warm spring through four seasons.

   "Why is it so warm in this room? How many charcoal stoves do you need to burn to make the house so warm?"

  Hu Wei couldn't help sighing as soon as he entered the room.

   "That's right, the burning of charcoal will cost a lot of money this day." Uncle Zhu Shouren couldn't help but echoed.

   "Huh?" Xia Qiang, who came in last, couldn't help but exclaimed after entering.

   "Ahem. Brother Xia, calm down." Uncle Zhu Shouren took a look at Xia Qiang, coughed, and reminded him to be careful, we are educated scholars, don't be surprised like a bumpkin and be looked down upon by others.

   "No, Brother Zhu, Brother Hu, have you noticed that there is not a single stove in this room?" Xia Qiang said to the two with a surprised face.

   "Impossible, the room is so warm, it's not as warm as ten or eight stoves can't keep you warm."

  Hu Wei and Zhu Shouren shook their heads.

   "But, look, how can there be a stove in this room?" Xia Qiang pointed to the size of the room and said to the two of them.

   "How could it be?" Hu Wei and Zhu Shouren shook their heads, looked around the room, and then their eyes couldn't help but widen, getting bigger and bigger.

  I'll go, it's true, there are beds, tables, chairs and cabinets in this room, but there is no stove, not a single one.

  There is no stove, how can it be so warm? !

  For a moment, the three of them looked like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, dumbfounded, no, dumbfounded.

   "Three lords, the VIP room is equipped with the Zhurong radiator exclusively produced by our Zhurong Trading Company, which is why it is so warm. Three lords, have you seen the pipes on the wall? That is our Zhurong radiator."

  The steward who led the three people to the VIP room pointed to the heating pipe on the wall and explained to uncle Zhu Shouren and the other three.

   "What is the Zhurong heating system?" Uncle Zhu Shouren and others asked curiously.

"This is invented by our uncle and miss. There is no need to burn a stove in the house, just install Zhurong radiators, and you can enjoy the warmth of spring in winter. We have a boiler room in the front yard, which is responsible for heating. The warmth is sent to every room in the mansion that is equipped with Zhurong heaters."

  The steward replied.

  The three of them didn't know what to do.

   Just at this moment, a few maids came in with steaming, tasty and delicious food.

In the blink of an eye, the table of the Eight Immortals in the VIP room is filled with delicacies with all kinds of color and fragrance, such as chicken, duck, fish, delicacies from mountains and seas, stir-fried, deep-fried, fried, fried, stewed, grilled, crispy, stewed, steamed, stuffed and stewed. Boiled, grilled, smoked, marinated and drunk, shredded honey sauce simmered and distilled.

  In order to maintain the temperature, there are small charcoal stoves simmering under several hot dishes, gurgling, and the aroma is doubled.

  The three people who were studying the radiator were instantly attracted by the delicious food on the table, and they salivated wildly.

God knows how they survived all the way from Yingtian to Suzhou, eating and sleeping in the open, starving, eating tree roots, gnawing bark, stealing chickens in the village, but being chased by dogs, going down the river to catch fish, the water is too cold and the fish is too slippery, I haven't seen any meaty smell in a daze.

  At this moment, looking at the chicken, duck, goose, delicacies from mountains and seas on this table, especially the delicious and wobbly elbow, the three of them moved towards the table bit by bit uncontrollably.

"When I saw the elbow, I couldn't help but think of Mr. Dongpo's verse of 'cook the whole grass to make the heart fragrant'. Mr. Dongpo deserves to be Mr. Dongpo. This elbow has to be boiled in the pot with the straw that binds the meat. Talented."

  Uncle Zhu Shouren shook his head and recited poems, looking at the plate of tempting elbows on the table, drooling.

   "I remember it's 'grass pearls are fragrant'?" Xia Qiang scratched his head and whispered.

   "Well, let me taste the difference between the elbows in Suzhou and the elbows in my hometown." Uncle Zhu Shouren couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks as he said that.

   I haven't seen meat in ten days, I really can't help it.

   Swallowing it with chopsticks is like opening a Pandora's box. It's so delicious. What care about image, what a scholar, this insignificant self-control is instantly smashed by this elbow.

Hu Wei and Xia Qiang originally wanted to pay attention to the influence, but when they saw that Zhu Shouren was reincarnated like a starved ghost, half of the elbow disappeared after a few chopsticks. All of them were eaten up.

   "Ahem, let's try to see how the food in Suzhou is different from our hometown"

  The two said a word of respect, and put down their chopsticks.

  The first bite of elbow meat, just like Zhu Shouren, their insignificant self-control was also shattered.

  The whole person was like opening a Pandora's box, out of control, and joined the battle group regardless of his image.

  No way, as the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people, not to mention that they have been eating and sleeping for ten days, not seeing meat, and hungry. They really couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food in front of them, and surrendered.

   "Ahem, three masters, bath water and a change of clothes are also ready, do the three masters want to take a bath and change clothes before eating?"

  The steward coughed as a reminder.

   "It's not too late to take a shower and change clothes after eating."

  Uncle Zhu Shouren yelled about the last piece of elbow meat he had snatched, without raising his head, he said vaguely.

   "Yeah, it's never too late to take a bath after eating." Hu Wei and Xia Qiang couldn't agree more with Zhu Shouren at this moment.

  The three of them were like starved ghosts reincarnated. In order to grab food conveniently, they didn't even sit down, just stood there.

  The dazzling array of food on the table, beautifully arranged, was half made by the three of them in a short while, and it was out of shape.

  From afternoon to evening, I ate for half a day, and I still haven't finished eating, and the bath water has changed from hot water to cold water.

Zhu Pingan received the news that his uncle Zhu Shouren had arrived with two friends, settled down and explained the affairs of the camp, and when he entered the city in the dark and came to the mansion, the three of them hadn't finished eating yet, and happened to see the three of them with their stomachs full of wind and clouds heroic.

  The hair is disheveled, the clothes are ragged, the sleeves are rolled up, one foot is stepping on the chair, the left hand has a chicken leg, and the right hand has a duck leg.

  Although he had already learned about the situation of the uncle and the others from the person who passed on the news, Zhu Pingan still could not help but twitch his mouth when he saw it with his own eyes.

   How did this happen?

Grandfather and grandmother are partial to the uncle, the uncle always gets a lot of money from the old couple, and often goes to the father's place to play the autumn wind, every time he goes out, he eats, drinks and has fun, never treats himself badly, and usually likes to pretend to be a handsome man outside appearance.

  Why is this?
