Xu Dian stayed in the pot until Zuo Ye came back.

When he went out, Zuo Ye happened to come in.

Zuoye had only heard of Xu Ershao's name from Fang Chengshi's mouth, but had never seen his real face, so he would just pass him by as a customer in the shop.

He also politely smiled at Xu Dian.

But Xu Ershao laughed at him for a moment, and heard Zuo Ye call out Brother Shi again.

He turned around and asked Fang Chengshi: "This kid... what kind of service does your family offer?"

Fang Chengshi took Zuo Ye to his side, and said with a smile, "Do you feel very caring and at home?"

Xu Dian laughed: "Your brother?"

Fang Chengshi guessed that the other party had checked him, so he said, "Better than my own brother."

Xu Dian said: "It doesn't look like your family, it looks much better than you."

Although he was praising himself, he belittled Fang Cheng Shi, Zuo Ye still didn't like to hear it, and said in a short-tempered way: "Brother Shi is the best-looking person."

Being praised by the child, Fang Chengshi couldn't laugh or cry, because for him, all the advantages are never the most important.

Xu Dian said to Zuo Ye: "You are a foolish supporter."

Zuo Ye said: "Brother Shi is my god."

He saved me, he was bigger than the sky, the earth, and everything in the world, and he spelled out a colorful painting in my heart.

His subtext is earth-shattering and full of color, but no one can understand it.

Xu Dian looked at Fang Chengshi thoughtfully: "You are worth it."

Fang Chengshi put his arms around Zuo Ye's shoulders, looked at Xu Dian and said, "You always leave, I won't see you off."

Xu Dian smiled and left.

Zuoye grabbed Fang Chengshi's clothes and asked, "Is he the Second Young Master?"

"That's right, this is the only person who can make your little brother Jian's eyes look straight."

Fang Chengshi's words were meant to tease Fang Sijian, but the child understood it, and asked hesitantly, "Brother Jian loves the second young master?"

Seeing him asking, Fang Chengshi didn't hide it: "I have a crush, why? Feel uncomfortable?"

There are still people who fear homophobia in every era, and this is an eternal truth.

Zuo Ye clutched his clothes, shook his head cautiously, looked at Fang Cheng Shi: "Brother Shi hates it?"

"Not only do I not hate, I also like men." Fang Chengshi thought this way, but he didn't dare to say so, so he said to the child: "Everyone has the right to love, and we are not qualified to interfere in other people's emotional lives. do you know?"

Hearing what Fang Chengshi said, Zuo Ye heaved a sigh of relief, his face became relaxed, he nodded and said, "I understand."

Fang Chengshi patted his head.

Zuo Ye struck while the iron was hot and said, "Brother Shi, can you go home early tomorrow night?"

Fang Chengshi asked him: "What's wrong?"

Zuoye said, "I want to eat the food you cook, is that okay?"

He was never too strict when making requests, and he was also very shrewd. If Fang Chengshi showed the slightest bit of embarrassment, he would retreat, put on an aggrieved expression, and just look at Fang Chengshi with drooping eyebrows and eyes without saying anything.

Fang Chengshi eats his set every time.

It's just that this time Zuo Ye was about to switch expressions, when Fang Cheng Shi responded in one gulp: "What do you want to eat?"

Zuo Ye suddenly received the surprise, his expression was stuck, and he was a little weird for a while, but he quickly adjusted and said overjoyedly: "Brother Shi, you agree?"

Fang Chengshi felt strange: "I am the one who told you to go ahead with your request. Do you think your brother Shi is the one who will slap yourself in the face?"

So far, Zuoye has made the most embarrassing request for Fang Chengshi, that is, he does not accept money other than pocket money.

No matter what the reason is, one or two a month is one or two, so don't fool around.

Sometimes Fang Chengshi sees that he spends a lot on shopping and wants to make up for him, but the child just refuses.

Fang Chengshi is learning painting recently, and he needs more money, that's why Fang Chengshi said to give him the money when he bought a book last time.

Zuo Ye said: "Brother Shi never breaks his promise to me."

Fang Chengshi said: "Just tell Aunt Yang what you want to eat, let her buy it first, and I will make it for you tomorrow."

Zuo Ye hummed happily.

Fang Huajian also said, "Is there something delicious? Then I'll have dinner tomorrow."

Fang Chengshi said to him: "It's as if I'm short of your ration."

Fang Huajian said: "Since you opened the store, you have no time to cook... Hey, let alone, I feel hungry now."

As for why Zuoye said he wanted to eat the food cooked by Fang Chengshi, Fang Chengshi didn't know about this special day until later.

This day happens to be the nineteenth day of the seventh lunar month, which is the seventh day of the sixth lunar month.

Because Zuoye ordered a lot of dishes, Fang Chengshi brought them out of the pot around four o'clock in the afternoon.

When he saw the menu, he was also stunned. This kid is afraid that he will fill in the vacancy that has been left for more than a month.

But considering that there are more than ten people in the family now, these nine dishes and one soup are not too many.

Fang Chengshi went straight to the kitchen when he got home.

Yang and another cook, Hu, are cleaning pork and vegetables.

There are fish, pork trotters and chicken.

Fang Chengshi tied the apron while thinking about what to do.

Mrs. Yang just came in with pork in her hands, and seeing Fang Chengshi's posture, she smiled and said, "I've never tried my master's cooking skills."

Fang Chengshi said: "That's right, you guys will comment on it later."

The ingredients in the kitchen were all available, so Fang Chengshi chopped the garlic sprouts, green onions, and ginger, and asked Mrs. Yang to wash the parsley.

This is also the treasure that Fang Chengshi picked up.

It was obviously introduced in the Western Han Dynasty, and it was recorded in "Qi Min Yao Shu". The popular and good food was abandoned on the side of the road because of its strange taste.

He plans to make steamed fish, braised pork trotters, and three-cup chicken.

The land of Qingyun Town is not barren, and it is rich in materials. Many things have grown there, but they have not been discovered and paid attention to.

Cilantro and basil, chilli and peppercorns are examples.

Because braised pig's trotters take time, Fang Chengshi decided to make it first.

Fortunately, the soybeans had already been soaked, so Fang Chengshi put the trotters into the water, then stir-fried them with ginger and garlic, then added cooking wine, etc., and finally braised them with soybeans.

It's very hot now, Fang Chengshi only stayed in the kitchen for a while, and then he broke out in a greasy sweat.

Mrs. Yang handed him a clean towel and said, "Master, it's so hot today, just let us come."

Fang Chengshi wiped off the sweat from his face and said, "It's okay, I don't do it every day."

Knowing that he was doing it for Zuo Ye, Yang thought that the boss really had nothing to say to the two younger brothers.

It hurts to take everything of myself.

It's just that Yang's emotion didn't take long before he heard a rush of footsteps.

Chen Shi broke into the kitchen and said anxiously, "Master, come quickly."

Fang Chengshi didn't know anything and went in: "What's wrong?"

"Someone came outside, saying it was the second young master's mother, and wanted to take the second young master away."

This is really a bolt from the blue!

At first, Fang Chengshi really thought it was Zuo Ye's mother who came to the door, but he was too shocked at that time, and didn't think about anything else at all.

Only when you meet someone will you realize how big this oolong is.

The mother is indeed a mother, but a foster mother.

At the gate, Zuo Mei, who had met once, stood aside sobbing.

And Zuo Ye's adoptive mother, Li Shi, was pulling Zuo Ye, Zuo Ye was completely in a daze, and was staggered several times by her.

Li yelled and cried, "My poor son, mother will take you home."

Zuo Ye was expressionless, he couldn't even see the pointing and discussion of the people next to him, he couldn't see the expressions on their faces as if they were watching a play, and he couldn't see their meaningful eyes.

He even fends for himself at that moment and thinks, "Is this what I'm here for?"

It wasn't until he was embraced by the fiery temperature and the familiar smell lingered at the tip of his nose that the heart that had died once broke free from the coldness and regained its warmth.

At this time, he finally heard a voice, which was unique to that person, low and emotionless, but made him sleepless: "What are you doing? Try again, and I will sue you at the Yamen."

Mrs. Li has seen Fang Chengshi before, of course she knows who the young face in front of her is. As if she was frightened, she looked at Fang Chengshi with a little fear and then looked around. Perhaps she felt that there were many people and could support her. Finally he had the guts to challenge Fang Chengshi: "I need Boss Fang's permission to come to see my son?"

Fang Chengshi raised his eyebrows, and said with a roguish look: "Our brother lost his mother since childhood, I don't remember my father finding me a stepmother."

With an absolute posture, he held Zuo Ye in his arms, watertight, no one could get a glimpse of him regardless of his own mother and adoptive mother.

"I don't dare to be Boss Fang's mother. I don't have this blessing..." Seeing Fang Chengshi's tough attitude, she had to turn her attention to Zuo Ye. She took out an egg tremblingly, and spoke softly to Zuo Ye. Ye said: "Today is your birthday, it's useless to be a mother, let you live under the fence..."

Fang Chengshi's eyes changed instantly.

In Fang Chengshi's arms, Zuo Ye raised his puzzled eyes and looked at the egg: "What are you doing? Dad sold me for 80 taels. You came to me with this egg today. What do you want from me? But I have nothing but this body."

At this time, Zuo Ye was clear in his heart, he just couldn't accept it, he thought that people are ruthless, even if they are not biological, they have been fake father and son for so many years, and they have each other more or less in their hearts.

But Li shattered all his thoughts with an egg.

He was abandoned because he was valuable; he was approached again today because he could still be used.

For a moment, his heart was sad and desolate.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Mrs. Li seemed to be very unscrupulous, but said something that was enough to make everyone misunderstand: "You know that your mother is not in good health, and your father had no choice but to sell you to Boss Fang as a child bride-in-law for your mother's sake." , Mother doesn’t want it in her heart!”

At this time, it was useless to come back to take precautions. She cried so loudly that all the onlookers heard her.

Suddenly, the crowd was like a hot pot that exploded, bustling with noise.

Zuoye has also become a hot potato, he can't be thrown away, but Fang Chengshi still holds him firmly.

Fang Chengshi said harshly: "Mr. Li, you abused my younger brother first, and slandered our brothers later. Today, I respectfully ask the pavilion chief to uphold justice."

Since ancient times, people are most afraid of seeing officials. Fang Chengshi can only frighten others if he keeps himself steady. But after signing the contract, if you slander me like this, do you not pay attention to Li Zheng, or do you want to rely on me?"

He asked sharply, and Li Shi didn't know how to answer for a while.

After hesitating for a long time, I can only talk about me intermittently.

Fang Chengshi went on to say: "Right and wrong are right and wrong. I am not afraid of evil shadows. But since your husband and wife abused Xiao Ye and sold him to me for 80 taels, it has nothing to do with him. You come to him now. What kind of bad intentions are you holding?"

There are children in every household, and when they are disobedient, they will teach them a lesson, but abuse is completely different. Now everyone sees Zuoye leaning on Fang Chengshi in a daze, his whole face is pale, and you know what Fang Chengshi said It's the truth.

They all subconsciously believe that children can't lie, and his performance is the most truthful.

Although all this is true.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Mrs. Li hurriedly yelled: "You are spitting blood, he is my child, how could I abuse him?"

Fang Chengshi sneered, and looked at Zuomei: "Xiaomei, is what your mother said true?"

The sobbing Zuomi was just crying, but this time everyone's attention suddenly turned to her, and she timidly raised a face covered with snot and tears, and looked at Li Shi in fear.

Zuo Mei knew why Li Shi came to find Zuo Ye. They planned to enroll their second brother, but they couldn't move at 80 taels, so they wanted to get some from Zuo Ye. It was all her fault. knew.

Thinking of this, she felt guilty towards Zuo Ye in her heart, and she also forgot what punishment she would have if she went back, so she cried and said to Mrs. Li: "Mother, don't force your elder brother anymore, I will be obedient, and I will do all the work, I will go Picking firewood on the mountain to exchange money for my second brother to study, the eldest brother is already suffering..."

She thought of Zuoye's time at home, and cried so much that she couldn't help herself.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she looked at Zuo Mei so much that she hated iron and steel. At this time, she was not afraid of others pointing her fingers, and she scolded: "Why did I give birth to you, a loser? I have raised him for 12 years, and he is filial. Shouldn't I?"

At this time, the person next to him couldn't help saying: "You are also a girl yourself, why do you treat your own child like this?"

Li said rudely: "None of your business..." She pointed at Zuoye again: "I tell you, you have to give today if you don't, don't forget who gave it to you today."

Fang Chengshi sneered and thought: "If it's not a family, I really don't want to enter the house." He just said, "Want to blackmail? Okay, see the pavilion chief."

Mrs. Li had no choice but to stare at Zuoye viciously with Fang Chengshi.

Zuoye's heart was up and down, and at this time, he was pulled back into the world by his sister's crying: "If you really feel that you have lost money, give 80 taels to Brother Huishi, and I will go back with you."

Li was so angry: "What do I want you to do?"

"Then since you don't want it... we have nothing to do with each other. Your 80 taels of nurturing grace has also been paid off. The moment Cong Zuo father sold me, the only person I owe is Brother Shi."

He was so organized that he made Li Shi speechless.

He could only scold Zuo Ye tremblingly with anger: "Okay...ok... I just raised you, a white-eyed wolf."

Zuo Ye looked at her with frank and fearless eyes.

But Fang Chengshi noticed that he was absent-minded and blank for a moment.

He sighed in his heart and thought: "What's the use of pretending? Isn't my heart bleeding!"

Zuo Ye's heart is indeed bleeding, but it's not for Li Shi, but for Zuo Mei. His sister does this for him, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future, but he can't do anything.

At the moment when Zuo Mei was dragged away by Mrs. Li, she looked back at Zuo Ye with guilt, like dead water.

Those eyes were definitely not what an eight or nine-year-old girl should have. It was her despair about life and the future that made her no longer have any expectations.

Zuo Ye took a step instinctively, but Fang Cheng Shi held down his shoulder.

Fang Chengshi shook his head at him.

He remembered what Fang Chengshi had said a long time ago, that they have always been powerless on the issue of Zuo Mei.

He couldn't save Jo-mi, and he couldn't save himself either.
