The days of being a cook in fairyland

Waiting left and right couldn't wait for the child's real parents, Yin Xiaobei had no choice but to carry the child back to the dim sum shop together.

After rushing back from home, Qin Jiu just opened the door and saw such a scene.The originally misty room was surprisingly clean and fresh, all the drawers had been taken down, and no excess steam could be seen.Only their shopkeeper was guarding a small pot the size of a palm, so absorbed in what he was cooking.

Is this a new recipe being studied? Qin Jiu was confused and put the flour he just bought on the table. When he lowered his head, he saw the child beside Yin Xiaobei's lap.

"Whose child is this?" Qin Jiu was startled, almost knocking over the flour on the table, "No, shopkeeper, I remember you haven't been married yet, where did you get this child? "

"I picked it up." The porridge in the pot was almost cooked, Yin Xiaobei didn't dare to add too much salt, so he could only put some honey to taste, put it in a small porcelain bowl, and took a piece of handkerchief to cushion it. Hand it carefully into the child's hand.

At the same time, he warned: "Eat later, be careful of burning."

The child didn't speak, but nodded, and took the small bowl with a veil very obediently.

Picked it up... Qin Jiu wanted to say that you, the shopkeeper, are so powerful that you can pick up a three-year-old child casually just by going out to make clothes.

But Qin Jiu felt relieved after thinking about it for a while.For such a young child, as long as the parents are not idiots, they will usually think of putting enough identity marks on the child in advance, even if it is really lost or picked up by someone, it will not take long. Immediately find the specific location of the child.

"By the way, why didn't you see Qin Wu?" Taking the small pot off the stove, Yin Xiaobei suddenly remembered, "Didn't he go home with you?"

"Uncle Cheng called him over." Having said that, Qin Jiu suddenly had a bad premonition.Uncle Cheng's full name is Cheng Yinian, and he is the real owner of their dim sum shop.A homeowner suddenly finds a tenant who rents out his shop, and always feels that it will not be a good thing.

As soon as Qin Jiu finished speaking, Qin Wu pushed the door open and walked in, with a gloomy expression on his face, he almost threw the things in his hand to the ground.

"What happened?" Yin Xiaobei asked.

Qin Jiu followed suit.

Qin Wu shook his head: "It was the surname Cheng who asked me to come over and let me tell the shopkeeper that the rent for next month has risen, and it will cost 15 yuan for middle-grade spirit stones. Also, if the shopkeeper doesn't want to, he can send When the house is vacant, he will rent it out to others.”

15 yuan for middle-grade spirit stones is 5000 yuan for low-grade spirit stones, which is almost equivalent to the profit of a dim sum shop for a whole month. It is all used to pay the rent, and they don't have to do anything else.

"It's too bullying." It took Qin Jiu a long time to find his own voice, why didn't he grab the 15 yuan middle-grade spirit stone, "No! He came here to see that our business is good now, right? Before he Why not raise the price, it turns out that there are not many people coming to that wonton shop, does he dare to ask for such a high rent?"

Qin Wu soon thought of this, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go out: "No, you guys wait here, I'll ask him to comment."

"Forget it," Yin Xiaobei pulled him back, "Let's think of another way."

Because they didn't have enough spirit stones before, they only signed a two-month lease with Cheng. Although the temporary price increase is not kind, but if they really find it, they really don't take it seriously.

"You mean the Han family?" Qin Jiu immediately realized.

Yin Xiaobei nodded, put away the porridge bowl that the child had finished eating, and put it in the sink.You can't hide from those who are coming.

Because he still had to look at the shop in the afternoon, it was Qin Wu who informed Steward Han.

Originally, after waiting in the restaurant for a long time, no one came over. Han Dong had given up any hope, and was going to go to the dim sum shop again despite He Lin's dissuasion, when his staff knocked on the door, saying that there was A guy named Qin Wu came over.

"What did I say?" He Lin said with a smug face, "I said within today, it must be within today, and I will definitely not let you drag it until tomorrow."

"You still have an idea. If this person can really cure the third lady's illness this time, you will definitely benefit from it in the future." Han Dong was overjoyed, and patted He Lin on the shoulder vigorously.Thinking in his heart, four of the five new medical practitioners on the Immortal Cultivation List this time have been persuaded by him to agree to take a trip to the Han Mansion, and there is only one left. This time, the matter will be completely settled up.

He Lin was also very happy over there, thinking that the matter of the surnamed Yin coming to Han's house seemed to be a certainty. At that time, there would be a few medical consultations and a cook mixed in, and he would definitely lose face. Lian was ashamed to admit defeat in front of everyone.

The agreed day to go to the Han Mansion was three days later, during which time the child's family members did not show up, and Yin Xiaobei also had a headache. Fortunately, Housekeeper Han didn't mind, and said that it was okay to bring them to the Han Mansion together.So three days later, after packing up his things and instructing Qin Wu to stay and look at the dim sum shop, Yin Xiaobei took Qin Jiu and the child into the carriage of the Han family.

Yin Xiaobei was taken aback when the carriage suddenly lifted into the air, but Qin Jiu remained calm and kept staring at the child opposite him.

"By the way, have you asked, what is the child's name?" Qin Jiu asked suddenly.This matter is quite strange to say, it stands to reason that the child has been here for three days, but until now no one knows where he came from, what his last name is or what.Although he was only a small child, Qin Jiu always felt uneasy in his heart.

Yin Xiaobei shook his head, and glanced at the child beside him: "I don't know, he has been refusing to speak." Not only was he refusing to speak, but he was like a wooden man at all, dumb, giving every instruction and every movement. Yin Xiaobei didn't care about him and didn't make trouble, just hid in the corner and played alone, not at all lively like a child of this age should be.

"Isn't he a fool?" Qin Jiu opened his eyes wide, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very strong. "Really, no wonder his family would abandon him."

Yin Xiaobei glanced at him angrily: "Shut up if you can't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

The child sitting on the side who was treated as a fool didn't seem to understand Qin Jiu's words, raised his head, and handed Yin Xiaobei the bronze mirror he had been playing with in his hand.

Yin Xiaobei sighed, took the bronze mirror, and stroked the child's hair.

"Hey, what's that?" The carriage shook, Qin Jiu suddenly came over and pointed at the back of the bronze mirror.

Yin Xiaobei turned the bronze mirror over.

"Mu... this should be a wooden character." Qin Jiu tried hard to distinguish.

Yin Xiaobei lowered his head to look carefully, Qin Jiu was right, only the back of the palm-sized semi-old bronze mirror was carved with complex patterns, and in the center was a short blurred text, and the rest of it could not be seen clearly. I can only see that the word "wood" should be at the beginning.

"Look, you don't want to tell me your name, why don't you call you Mumu from now on." Yin Xiaobei touched the top of the child's head and said.The child sat on the side obediently, neither nodding nor shaking his head, just staring at him with a pair of dark eyes as usual.

Qin Jiu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Mu Mu is good, I've been dumb all day, so I have to be called Mu Mu." Before he finished laughing, he was hit on the forehead by his shopkeeper, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense. up.

Neither of them saw it, but the moment the bronze mirror was put back into the child's hand, the three small characters "Sky Peering Mirror" suddenly flashed across the mirror, and there was no trace of it in a blink of an eye.

"Has everyone been invited?" Han Mingyuan, the patriarch of the Han family, asked in a low voice.

The housekeeper Han Dong who just rushed back nodded quickly: "I've invited you all, seven in total, five of whom have already arrived at the mansion today, and the other two who have other things to do, but tomorrow at the latest." I can make it." After being busy these days for this moment, although Han Dong tried his best to suppress it, he still couldn't hide the pride in his voice.

"Good!" The Patriarch of the Han family was overjoyed, and was about to say a few more compliments when he saw the servant girl in the mansion running out of the yard in a panic.

Coughing uncontrollably while running: "Miss San, Miss San..."

"It's the manifestation of the inner demon!" Han Dong's face changed drastically.

Being able to infect other people with your own symptoms means that you have reached the point where your demons have manifested, and if it has reached such an irreversible point, let alone the five medical practitioners, even the Daluo Jinxian I'm afraid it can't be cured.

"Shut up! Go, invite some doctors over here." The Patriarch of the Han family sternly said.

Han Dong didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and quickly turned around to call for someone in the front yard.

Entering the Han Mansion, a group of three people were quickly led by the servants in the mansion, and arranged to rest in a guest room in the front yard.

After sitting down in the room, Yin Xiaobei suddenly felt something was wrong.Leaving aside the decoration of the guest room for entertaining, the maids and servants who came up to serve attentively inside and outside are a bit too grand, and it doesn't look like inviting a cook to make dim sum.

"Shopkeeper, it doesn't seem right." Qin Jiu said uneasy.

Qin Jiu knew a little more than the shopkeeper of his family. Han Mingyuan, the patriarch of the Han family, had just broken through the cultivation base of Xuanxian, and the status of the entire Han family in the first heaven had risen accordingly. The imperial chef from the Immortal Court came over, so it was probably not worthy of such courtesy.

"Sit down," Yin Xiaobei handed a snack to the child, and poured himself a cup of hot tea, "Don't think too much, we're here to make cakes, don't worry about the rest."

Qin Jiu nodded, yes, the shopkeeper is really wise.
