Chu Yunze stood not far away, looking at the two figures in the courtyard, and felt a faint sadness filling the air.

Is it because you are not satisfied with your marriage? Or has she grown up and has her own secrets?

Chu Yunze blamed himself, saying that his elder brother was so derelict in his duty that he didn't even know that his sister, who had always been carefree, was also feeling sad.

Ningyue stood quietly beside Chu Yunze. Looking at Chu Yunze's tall figure, Ningyue felt that she felt inexplicably at ease.

"Ningyue, do you miss home too?" Chu Yunze suddenly asked softly.

Ning Yue was stunned for a moment, then whispered back: "This slave has no home to think about."

Chu Yunze turned around and glanced at Ningyue, and said: "Don't call me a slave from now on. We are not a relationship of personal dependence. Your body contract is in your own hands. We are just friends. If one day you get tired of staying here, you want to If you leave, you can leave at any time, but remember to protect your own life, your life was saved by this young master."

Ning Yue lowered her head and said nothing. The young master doesn’t understand his own thoughts, and fortunately the young master doesn’t understand his own thoughts.

"Keep an eye on Yun Yan for me." Chu Yunze has very good ears and heard an extremely small sound coming from behind the yard. After saying this to Ning Yue, he used Qing Gong and left the yard, heading straight to the location where the sound had just been made.

Ning Yue watched the elegant figure disappear into the night, raised her feet and moved forward, getting closer to Chu Yunyan.

Chu Yunyan heard some movement behind her, and when she came back to her senses, she saw that it was Ning Yue. She asked with a smile: "Ning Yue, did we disturb you by talking?"

Ningyue shook her head and said: "The master is out, and the servants are here to guard the young lady."

When Chu Yunyan heard this, she quickly stood up and asked, "Where has eldest brother gone?"

Ning Yue shook her head. With the young master's skills, ordinary people are no match for him, so she never worries, so her heart is full of admiration, admiration, and even love.

"Don't worry, young lady, the young master is in charge." Ning Yue comforted her.

Chu Yunyan knew her elder brother's skills, but she still couldn't help but worry. This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

After Chu Yunze chased him out, he saw a black figure hiding in a shadow outside the courtyard wall. He stepped forward and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you, sir, and what's the matter?"

The man in the shadow slowly walked out and stood in the pale moonlight. He wore a scary mask on his face and said in a low voice, "I feel free to wander here. I don't want to disturb the young master's dream."

Chu Yunze didn't say anything, because he didn't believe what the other party said.

After a while, Chu Yunze suddenly said: "The Master of the Secret Pavilion is so free and wandering around without rest in the middle of the night, or is he taking advantage of the night to collect information?"

"Young Master Chu, you have great eyesight!" The other party no longer pretended to be mysterious and openly admitted his identity.

A duel between masters involves not only skill, but also observation, intelligence, etc. The master of the Secret Pavilion looked at the cautious Chu Yunze and said, "I wonder what Mr. Chu thinks of your sister?"

"What does the Pavilion Master mean by this?" Chu Yunze asked slightly displeasedly.

"Master Chu, don't you have any doubts about your sister's marriage to Prince Zhan?" the pavilion master asked.

"Marriage is given by the emperor. Our Chu family is just a commoner, so what if we are suspicious?" Chu Yunze asked again. Could it be that the master of the pavilion meant that he would go against the royal family if he was not satisfied with this marriage? ?

Hearing this, the Pavilion Master raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "Mr. Chu, I have misunderstood. I would like to ask, has your sister mentioned to you her views on marriage or expressed her attitude towards the King of War?"

"My sister-in-law never mentioned anything about the King of War. She only said that she had a good life in the palace. And as the elder brother, I have seen with my own eyes that she has grown a lot since they got married. I guess it is because the King of War has a lot to say in the palace. Take care of it." Chu Yunze said objectively.

He knew that Chu Yunyan had encountered several dangerous things since she married into the palace. Although he had secretly investigated, except for the two assassinations by Zhou Sui and Su Baozhu, the other assassins had high backgrounds, and they were obviously fighting again. Caused by Wang Gu Qingxuan. It was up to Gu Qingxuan to resolve such matters, and he had already negotiated with him.

After hearing this, the master of the Secret Pavilion smiled slightly in his heart, but still had a calm look on his face, and softly replied: "I see, I am being presumptuous. Farewell!"

As soon as the Master of the Secret Pavilion finished speaking, he flew away.

At this time, Chu Yunyan also came over and asked worriedly: "Brother, what happened?"

Chu Yunze put on a gentle smile on his face and replied: "It's okay, I met a friend and chatted for a few words."

"That's good. Brother, please go back to your room and rest quickly. There will be things to do tomorrow morning!" Chu Yunyan reminded.

Because she had something on her mind, Chu Yunyan got up just after Yinshi on the second day.

Pasta making enters the "upper" process. The two women also got up early and got ready. They coiled the strips they woke up yesterday on the prepared noodle sticks in advance, two figures on the left and one flat, then put them into the noodle tank and covered them with an insulation layer, and continued. Wake up.

After another hour, it was time to get to the most important part - ramen and noodles. At this time, the strips are hung and pulled into noodles with a diameter of about two millimeters and a length of about two and a half meters, and then the noodles are opened.

Chu Yunyan spoke to the two women carefully, and used two bamboo poles, which were slender and polished very smoothly, to open and slide downwards, and the noodles that met each other slipped through the middle of the adjacent noodles. , no longer stuck. The two women had more experience in making pasta, so Chu Yunyan followed her instructions and made it easily.

Chu Yunze watched the busy scene quietly from the side, looking forward to how the pasta would look like.

Chu Yunyan had two noodle racks prepared in advance yesterday afternoon. After opening the noodles, she pulled them to a suitable length, hung clean stone weights on both ends of the noodle sticks, and began to dry them naturally.

It happened to be early winter, the weather was dry and the sun was bright. After drying in the courtyard for about a quarter of an hour, the dried noodles solidified and took shape, and then people took the noodles indoors and hung them individually.

Chu Yunyan looked at the noodles as thin as silk on one shelf and the noodles as wide as leek leaves on the other shelf, and was extremely satisfied.

Chu Yunze said from the side: "Ayan, do we need to continue to dry them for a day or two so that they are completely dehydrated?"

Chu Yunyan knew that her eldest brother was extremely smart, so she nodded with a smile and said, "What eldest brother said is that it is easier to move and store if it is dried in the sun."

Chu Yunyan told Qiu Yue that on the morning of the third day, she would move the noodles to the yard for a second drying and that she would come over in the afternoon to check the success.

At the end of the third day, Chu Yunyan, accompanied by Chu Yunze, came to Zhuangzi again. Looking at the dried noodles hanging in the courtyard, Chu Yunyan kept nodding.

She asked someone to bring the noodles into the room, put the long noodles flat on the closing board, and started cutting and tying them. Noodles of the same thickness and length are tied into bundles and placed on the panel.

Chu Yunyan looked at the results in front of her, happily picked up a bunch and handed it to Chu Yunze, showing off: "Brother, what do you think of this?"

Chu Yunze looked at the noodles in his hand that were the same thickness and length. This kind of food without water was indeed easier to store and transport. In fact, from the beginning, he had roughly guessed the general appearance of the food Chu Yunyan was going to make, but when he actually saw the finished product, he was still shocked.
