"These snacks are very filling, don't eat too much, there will be a main meal later. There are two more snacks, which you can eat together with dinner later." Su Lun reminded them considerately. When everyone heard this, they nodded to show that they understood. After all, they didn't want to affect their appetite for the main meal by eating too much.

"In just such a short time, could it be that Brother Su cooked the meal himself?" Gu Bei exclaimed. He knew that Su Lun's cooking skills were excellent, but he didn't expect that he could make a sumptuous meal in such a short time.

"I only made a boiled fish and two other snacks. The rest were made by the chef in the mansion." Su Lun explained with a smile. Although he liked cooking, it was impossible for him to finish all the dishes in a short time.

Hearing this, Xiao Anning's eyes lit up. She loved eating fish the most. "General Su, is this boiled live fish a new dish?" she asked curiously.

"It's a different method from before. Miss Second can try it later." Su Lun replied with a smile. He was confident in his new dish and believed that it would satisfy everyone.

"Hey, from what you said, you have tasted Brother Su's cooking more than once before, Sister An Ning." Gu Bei teased. He saw Xiao An Ning's attention to Su Lun and couldn't help but want to tease her.

Xiao An Ning didn't notice anything strange: "I've said that General Su and I are good friends. I've been to the Su Mansion before..." Her voice was cheerful, and she didn't think there was anything she couldn't say.

Gu Bei looked at her, and suddenly he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. The girl in front of him was no longer the innocent little girl. Her eyes revealed a different kind of emotion, which was definitely not the look of looking at a friend. Looking at Su Lun on the side, with a smug and proud expression, Gu Bei shook his head helplessly and sighed in his heart: What two stupid fools! However, Gu Bei's worry was obviously unnecessary. In fact, these two people just failed to clearly express their true thoughts for their own reasons. One of them was embarrassed to say it directly because of the girl's shyness, and the other did not dare to speak easily because he felt that his status and position were not suitable.

"By the way, Brother Su, we finally have another seven-day break. Have you thought about what to do? I remember you once said that you haven't had a good time since arriving in the capital. Now that the weather is just right, we can go out for fun together. Otherwise, how about going to the capital together tomorrow? Or going out of the city for horseback hunting is also a good choice." Gu Bei asked, changing the subject.

Hearing this, Xiao Anning's eyes lit up with excitement. She suggested with anticipation, "Why don't we go to Mingyu Mountain? That's the territory of the General's Mansion. The maple leaves there are as bright as fire this season, and there are many prey to hunt."

Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Su Lun couldn't bear to let them down, so he smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Second sister, I want to go too." Xiao Anzhi pulled Xiao An Ning and acted coquettishly.

Xiao Anning looked at her brother and said helplessly, "Anzhi, it's not that I don't want to take you, but don't you have to go to school tomorrow?" She blinked her big eyes as she spoke.

After hearing this, Xiao Anzhi frowned, curled his lips and complained: "Why is this happening? I want to take a day off, too!" His words made everyone present laugh.

Xiao An Ning suddenly thought of something and asked excitedly, "By the way, can I ask Yue Hua to go play with us?"

Su Lun smiled and nodded: "Of course you can. As long as the Second Miss is happy."

Xiao An Ning was extremely happy, and immediately turned around and told her personal maid: "Xiao Tao, quickly ask someone to go to the Shenwei Marquis' Mansion to ask if Yue Hua is available tomorrow."

Xiao Tao responded, "Yes, I'll go right away." After that, she turned around and left quickly.

At this time, Su Lun looked up at the sky and suggested, "It's getting late, why don't we all go to the restaurant. Ah Zhe, go and invite my eldest brother to the restaurant to have dinner together."

"Yes." Su Zhe agreed, then turned around to invite Su Zheng.

A few people came to the restaurant and found Su Zheng was already waiting there.

"Mr. Su, long time no see. I'm here to chat again today." Xiao An Ning stepped forward and said hello.

"Miss Xiao, you are too polite. It is a blessing for our Su family that Miss Xiao has condescended to visit us." Su Zheng returned the greeting with a smile.

"Do you know each other?" Su Lun asked in surprise.

"We met once." Su Zheng replied with a smile.

Su Lun nodded, "Brother, let me introduce them. This is General Gu Bei. He is my colleague and friend, and also the second young lady's cousin. This is the young master of the general's mansion." Su Lun pointed at Gu Bei and Xiao Anzhi and introduced them.

"Brother Gu, Young Master Xiao, this is my eldest brother."

Everyone bowed and saluted, "I have admired you for a long time!"

"Nice to meet you!"

After several people greeted each other, Su Lun said, "Everyone, please take a seat. Don't stand."

So everyone sat down and started chatting.

Soon, the dishes were served. Soon, a large table was filled with delicious and fragrant food, which made people salivate. Under Su Lun's guidance, the cooking skills of the Su Mansion chefs had obviously made a qualitative leap. Even compared with the imperial chefs, the taste was not much different, but not as exquisite.

"It smells so good." Xiao Anzhi sniffed, smelling the tempting aroma, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Haha, everyone, eat it while it's hot. I'll offer you all a glass of tea instead of wine, and thank you for taking care of Allen." Su Zheng raised the teacup in his hand and said, his eyes revealing sincere gratitude.

"Brother Su, you are too polite. Brother Su and I are friends. To be honest, I have learned a lot from Brother Su. I should be the one toasting you." Gu Bei raised his glass in response, with a hint of sincerity in his voice.

"Brother Gu, big brother, we are all brothers. Let's not say such polite words. Let's just eat and drink well." Su Lun said from the side, with a hint of boldness in his tone.

"Haha, Brother Su is right. I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time. Brother Su is really amazing." Gu Bei replied with a smile, his eyes revealing admiration for Su Lun.

"If General Gu likes it, please come often." Su Zheng invited with a smile, his eyes flashing with enthusiasm.

"That's a good feeling."

"Second Miss, I made this boiled fish myself. Please try it." Su Lun took a small bowl, poured some fish soup into it, picked up some fish meat with a serving chopstick and placed it in front of Xiao An Ning, with a gentle smile on his face.

"Thank you."

Xiao Anning tasted it carefully. The fish meat melted in his mouth, and the fresh fragrance was endless. "It tastes delicious and not fishy. It's very delicious." Xiao Anning praised softly, with a satisfied smile on his face.

"As long as the Second Miss likes it." A relieved smile appeared on Su Lun's face.

"Second brother, I want one too." Su Xi whispered at the side, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.

"Okay, okay, we have everything." Su Lun said, and filled a bowl for Su Xi as well, and carefully reminded her: "Eat slowly, and be careful of the fish bones."
