Speaking of preparing high-cost banquets, Cantonese cuisine is absolutely indispensable, especially among the ingredients Chen Mo asked Mu Xin to purchase; many are for making Cantonese dishes.
Moreover, these dishes must all be freshly prepared, with no notion of making them in advance and just reheating.
Therefore, when he saw Hou Yao coming, Chen Mo's first reaction wasn't confusion, but excitement!
"Master Hou, why are you here?"
Seeing Chen Mo's smile, Hou Yao felt something was off, "I... I just came to take a look, just a look around."
He pretended to glance around casually.
Chen Mo was not at all polite, "Since you're here, you must eat! After our banquet ends tomorrow, there's also a banquet to thank the guests; you'll eat with us then!"
The guest banquet is an essential part of the Jingzhou banquet, held to thank relatives and friends who helped out after the main banquet.
