lonely moon dream

Although the small kitchen was also clean and tidy, but because it was not time for cooking, Xunyue only lit a small dim oil lamp.The light in the kitchen was not clear, and it was hard to keep your eyes open when it was illuminated by the wind lamp at the door.Xunyue subconsciously raised her right hand to block the light, and closed her eyes to look outside.

When Xunyue got used to the change of light and could see the person clearly, she suddenly became confused.Standing up in a panic from the small bench, the disobedient right leg knocked over the bench, the bench knocked down the cleaning tools standing against the wall, and the cleaning tools hit the pots and pots... "jingle jingling" into one piece.

Fang Youxun frowned slightly as he saw the people in front of him flustered and at a loss.

How can you be so stupid? The grown-ups have seen it!Don't panic, adults can't recognize your own.Why do adults come to the kitchen?Xunyue wanted to kneel down to salute, but then remembered that she had a different status now, and it seemed inappropriate to do any salute, so she could only stand there with her head down for a while.

In the dim yellow light, Fang Youxun wanted to step up to see clearly the flashing bright eyes.But after entering the kitchen door, he was a little uncomfortable with the smell of oily smoke, so he stopped at the entrance: "You cook Xi'er's dishes?"

"Yes... the old slave did it." Xunyue answered carefully. "Xi'er"?What Rou'er said was true.My lord really cared about Miss Lin, so he went to the kitchen to ask about Miss Lin's diet.

"Is this method of removing bones and steaming small fish the method of your hometown?" Seeing this sick and weak old man who can cook in front of him, Fang Youxun miraculously did not feel disgusted, but wanted to know more about him. thing.Want to know, just ask.

"Mr. Hui, it's not." Xun Yue wanted to say yes, but he lacked a lot of explanation.But thinking that the adults of their family have traveled all over the world and have extensive knowledge, if they ask where their hometown is, they will be exposed, so they have to tell the truth.

"Oh?" Xunyue really guessed it. If the answer is yes, Fang Youxun will definitely continue to ask.In the end, Xunyue said "no", so Master Fang took a few more steps in, waiting for the next article with great interest, it seemed that the smell of oily smoke in the kitchen was not so strong anymore.

My lord must study this little fish thoroughly today.In order to reduce some embarrassment, Xunyue picked up an unused small fish in a basin beside her, and began to talk about how to do it while operating.

Obviously I really want the adults to stay longer, but I am afraid that I will be recognized by the adults, and I will be completely rejected by the adults.Thinking of this, Xunyue felt like her heart was filled with sea water, salty and heavy.I just hope that the adults can quickly let themselves go because of the fishy smell and leave the kitchen early.

Seeing the "old man" with his dry hands deftly wash, peel, and clean out the internal organs of the small fish, and pick up a sharp knife to skillfully remove the whole set of bones of the small fish, Fang Youxun not only did not feel sick , but found it very interesting.So he took two steps forward.

"How could you think of using such a small fish to be boned and steamed?" Fang Youxun inserted the lantern on a shelf beside which hung various tablecloths.

"The master has a young master who is not favored. He never eats fish. Everyone, including the old master, thinks he doesn't like fish. One day, the young master came to play in the servant's kitchen and grabbed a fish. The servant pickled it himself. He actually ate all the small salted fish. After asking, he found out that he doesn’t eat fish because the fish has bones.” Xunyue narrated like telling a story.

"So you often pick out the whole set of fish bones to make fish for him to eat?" Those who heard the story felt that the story was a bit familiar.

Xunyue nodded, put the treated small fish in another basin, and picked up another small fish.

"What happened later?" Someone was addicted to it.

"Ah... Later, the young master became favored, and he never came to the servant's kitchen again." Xunyue wanted to finish this story quickly, because he was not the servant who was a fish in the story.If it goes on like this, it will definitely be seen through.

"Why don't you tell the host about this, maybe you will be rewarded." People who are addicted to listening obviously don't want to end so soon.

"Because...then I will never see the young master again..." There will be countless servants peeling fish bones for him, and countless chefs will cook delicious boneless fish for him.Xunyue suddenly felt that she understood the old slave who told her the story very well.

When the old slave who helped in the servant's kitchen told Xunyue the "secret" he had kept all his life, he was already terminally ill and could not even breathe in the pain, but he said with a smile that he wanted to see the "little master" eat him. made of fish.

It is recorded in "Feng Yue Pin" that the coaching adults never eat fish, not even fish with bones removed.But no one knew that the coach was just too lazy to peel the fishbone, too lazy to let others know that he loves fish, and too lazy to explain that those fish pieces that are cooked and then boned are ugly in his eyes.Xunyue is so glad that she knows this "secret".

"Is that so...." Why does it feel familiar?Fang Youxun accidentally saw two long strips of thick cloth on the end of the shelf where he put the lantern, and reached out to take one off, which seemed to have some ointment and a small amount of blood stains on it, "Are you injured?"

"..." Looking back, Xunyue trembled, almost knocking off the fish basin in her hand.It was the cloth strip he used to wrap his arm, and he took it off to wash the dishes and hung it aside.

It's over, my lord saw it!Adults must think that the dishes made by such hands are disgusting.Xunyue desperately tried to tuck her erythema and some festering and festering arms into the sleeves, but she was wearing a short coat of coarse cloth worn by servants, and the sleeves and trousers were only half the length of ordinary people's clothes, so there was nothing to cover her. Nothing to hide.

"Let me see." Fang Youxun reached out to grab Xunyue's withered wrist.

Only then did he realize that the lord was so close to him, so close that he could feel the cold aura on his body, Xunyue felt as if he had been seen through, and hurriedly backed away.How can I let the dirty sores on my body stain the hands of adults: "Ah... no..."

He didn't want to be tripped by the overturned bench behind him, and fell into the pile of cleaning tools.

This was the first time someone dared to refuse Fang Da's coach so rudely.Seeing the helplessness and panic of the "old man", Fang Youxun felt a little silly.It seems that I am still more suitable to be a villain.With a soft "hum", he turned around and left the kitchen with his sleeves shaken.

The wind lamp on the shelf swayed with the air current brought by the people leaving.The shelf makes a "squeak" sound, which is very clear at night.

Xunyue froze on the ground, her mind went blank.

After an unknown amount of time, the burning pain in her chest made Xunyue wake up.It was just a dream just now, it seems that only the pain is real.Xunyue knew that this was the "overlord" in his body attacking again, he curled himself into a corner, ready to face the next struggle...

"My lord..." When he lost his mind, the wind lamp shook again.A figure appeared in front of him.

"Are you afraid...?" The person who went back and forth seemed to have found a lost treasure in this dark corner, and carefully brushed away the dry and broken hair of the huddled person in front of his face.

……

When she woke up again, Xunyue felt the bumps and familiar texture under her body.

Oh, are you in the carriage again?Opening his eyes, he saw Rou'er dozing off beside him.

The "overlord" in the body is very stable after being full.The body is not as tired and weak as last time, and there is no sticky feeling after sweating.He changed into a new coarse cloth dress, although it was also short-breasted, but it was long-sleeved trousers, and he also wore an inner shirt.Moreover, that ray of innate qi seems to have increased a lot.

This made Xunyue even more uneasy.He gently woke up Rou'er, and asked carefully: "Rou..."

Before Xunyue could ask, Rou'er rubbed her eyes, saw the person in front of her clearly, and immediately started chatting: "Ah, you're awake! Last night when the third son threw you to us, he thought you were dead! I was so anxious that tears came out.”

It seems that there is no need to ask.But who is this 'little third son'?Xunyue rubbed Rou'er's frightened ears and asked, "Little Sanzi?"

"Ah, it's another entourage of Mr. Fang's family." Rou'er giggled, "He even deliberately scared the tiger man and said, 'Get ready for the funeral', what an annoying guy."

It turned out to be him.Xunyue smiled wryly when she thought of the boy who pretended to be cold.He is not scaring you.

"Actually, he's not bad. No, I brought you clothes this morning. I asked Brother Qian to change them for you." Rou'er pointed at the clothes on Xunyue.

Xunyue is even more strange.

……

All the way silent.Xiyue occasionally lifted the curtains of the car to take a look outside.

Fang Youxun brought up the topic of the morning again: "You can't go to Chengjiazhuang alone."

"Is this the third condition?" Xiyue asked with a smile.

"..." Fang Youxun was rarely stopped when asked.Most of the time, he was too lazy to answer and did it directly.As for the result of doing it, few people dared to ask him questions afterwards.

"There are still Rou'er and Mr. Qian, everything will be fine." Xiyue knew that he was concerned about herself, and was afraid that she would suffer a disadvantage.But she was even more afraid that this trip to the Cheng family would turn into another Qinhai massacre.

"Then let Xunfeng follow." Someone made the biggest concession.

Ying Yi, who was driving in front, heard it clearly, and there was a small ripple in his heart.

"...Okay." Xiyue didn't dare to refuse the kindness of this old man who turned his face faster than turning a book, "but he can't use force casually."

"Don't worry." Fang Youxun agreed happily, and then raised his voice slightly, "When we arrive at Cheng's house, we will listen to Xi'er."

"Yes." Ying Yi responded immediately.

Today, Ying One and Twenty Three are both dressed as entourages in Tsing Yi, this is Fang Youxun's order, from now on there is no need to be on the bright side.Usually the two of them are Ming, and whoever is "Xunfeng".It is uncertain who will respond to your lord's order this time.By responding to the order, Yingyi made it clear that he was trying to earn the name "Xunfeng".Twenty-three tilted his head to look at Yingyi, feeling a little uncomfortable.That is the name given by adults.

Xun Feng also felt a little embarrassed, and nodded to Twenty-Three sideways.After all, I was the one who used the name "Xunfeng" in front of Miss Lin yesterday, so a temporary replacement is obviously not a good idea.

Twenty-Three also blinked, expressing his understanding.Didn't he also tell Rou'er that he is called "Little Sanzi".

Fang Youxun was in the car, so he didn't know the exchange between the two shadow guards outside the car.He is now calculating another matter.

"Xi'er, I gave you a powerful follower, shouldn't I get some compensation?" I have to say, Fang Youxun's smile is really pretty, but this smile makes people feel uncertain.

"Is there anything Xiyue can give to Mr.?" Xiyue felt that she was being calculated.But isn't he already unable to escape his control?He still has a third condition that he can ask himself, so why go around in circles?

"How about giving me that 'Dab' who can cook fish? We'll exchange it fairly."
