"Hehe." Mourning couldn't answer, so he had to laugh dryly twice.Where is he going to find his teacher for him?If he could, he would have gone back a long time ago, so why would he continue to stay here.

But fortunately, Nangong Ye didn't struggle with this question. Seeing that Mourning didn't answer and didn't continue to ask, Mourning was really relieved, and said: "Actually, my master has already taught me everything he knows, so It doesn't matter if you see it or not." And isn't there a saying that the blue is better than the blue?He is much better than his teacher, he has passed the senior chef qualification certificate, and his teacher who is still teaching in that third-rate school has not yet!

"A-Ning is quite confident." Nangong Ye said with a smile, her phoenix eyes seemed to be stained with a faint smile, and Mourning scratched her head in embarrassment, only to realize that what she said in a panic just now It made people feel quite rampant, and the heat on his face rose a little, "I didn't mean that, it's just, just..." The more anxious I was, the more I couldn't speak, and finally Mourning sighed heavily, spreading his hands a little helplessly The look, but the blinking looks a little pitiful.

Nangong Ye couldn't help laughing, and found that his understanding of this person seemed to be wrong, so he nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I know."

Mourning was speechless now.

When you said that you were anxiously explaining something, you might not even understand some of the words you said. How could he, an outsider, be so calm and nod his head to say he knew?

Mourning feels so aggrieved that he can't say it now. He obviously feels that he has a lot to say, but he doesn't know why he can't get a word out. He can only shut his mouth in a very aggrieved manner. Very tangled.

Once the two of them stopped talking, the empty room fell into a silence. In such silence, even a tiny bit of sound could be amplified countless times, so Mourning heard a 'click' from outside very clearly. Just now His pent-up thoughts were suddenly diverted away, he blinked, and asked Nangong Ye puzzledly: "Is there anyone outside?"

Nangongye's expression did not change at all, he lied very seriously: "No." But his eyes swept across the flashing figure outside the room as if nothing, and a hint of sarcasm flashed from the charming pair of phoenix eyes However, the speed is too fast for people to catch it.

"Is there no one?" Mourning looked a little puzzled, "But I clearly heard a voice outside!" He stood up and walked towards the window as he said that, the voice he heard just now seemed to be coming from here.

Nangong Ye's expression was indifferent, and his eyelids were slightly lowered, half covering those slightly twinkling phoenix eyes, "Probably you heard it wrong." Mourning had already walked to the window, and opened the window to lean out to look out He looked, but it was a pity that it was pitch black outside, except for the branches and leaves swaying by the wind, he couldn't even see a ghost, so he retracted more than half of his body, and just turned around, but suddenly I was taken aback.

Nangongye, who was sitting in front of the table just now, was standing behind him at some point, so quietly that he couldn't even hear the sound of footsteps. It's no wonder that he was so frightened. The heart was still in shock, and the words of blame blurted out without thinking: "Why do you stand behind others without making a sound, do you know that if people are scary, they will scare people to death?"

After the last word was pronounced, Mourning realized what he had said to the savior. His eyes widened instantly, and he stood there like a log in a daze. Nangong Ye jumped in surprise as if he was stupid. Eyebrows, the expression on his face became ambiguous in the next moment, and he took two steps closer to Mourning without making a sound, and the distance between the two was so close that it was only the size of a fist.

Mourning, who is not used to standing so close to people, moved a little uncomfortably, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scold you, I was just taken aback, so don't take it to heart if you talk nonsense in a hurry Ah." He thought that Nangong Ye was angry after hearing his words, and hurriedly explained that he was afraid that his savior would regard him as a villain who didn't know how to repay favors.

Nangongye smiled lightly, lowered his face slightly, the face behind the light was a little blurry, but the ambiguity of the corners of the eyes and brows spread out bit by bit, Mourning was a little stunned for a while, in the silence, he could only Hearing the other party's pleasant voice lowered slightly, he said softly: "It's okay, how could I be angry with Ah Ning?" The low voice is obviously nothing special, but it matches the ambiguity that is revealed from the corners of the eyes and brows of the other party at the moment , but how to listen to how to make people think elsewhere.

Mourning blinked and blinked, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't figure out how the other party's attitude had changed at this moment... Uh... a bit weird, yes, it was weird, it was fine just now, why did his attitude change now? Is it like this?Also, why did what he said just now made him feel a little awkward?And there are some... blushing and heartbeating...

He suddenly raised his hand to cover his heart that was beating wildly again, the first time it was beating wildly, it was because he was frightened by him standing behind him suddenly, and the second time it was beating wildly——

He raised his head and looked at Nangong Ye who was looking down at him with a smile on his face, and then found very badly that his heartbeat seemed to be beating faster!He who had never had any experience in this area was stunned for a moment. He was dazed thinking how could he blush because of a man's words?He couldn't figure out what was going on!In the end, he blamed all the weirdness on the reason that Nangong Ye was too beautiful!

Yes, it must be that Nangong Ye is too beautiful and indistinguishable. He, who has never been in love, can't resist the beauty of Nangong Ye. He, a rookie who has never been in love, is really It's because he's too good that he can think wildly because of the other party's ambiguous words.

He just found an excuse for his strange reaction, and his heart calmed down a little bit, but when he looked up, all his calmness shattered to the ground again, and his face flushed quickly, because Nangong Ye actually moved his head closer again, and the two of them were almost touching their foreheads. He was startled, and took a step back abruptly, and then his head hit the window lattice with a 'bump' sound. On the ground, the pain made him burst into tears, but because of this, the ambiguity just now was broken all of a sudden, he screamed in pain and ignored the ambiguous atmosphere just now, squatting down to rub himself The head was sore from being hit.

There was a hint of amusement in Nangong Ye's eyes, but he casually glanced towards a certain direction outside the window, and then he squatted down slowly, expressing his concern for someone who hit his head and was so painful that he was about to cry: "Is it heavy? Why is Ah Ning so careless?"

Mourning raised his head with a 'swish' and stared at an unconscious culprit, feeling extremely resentful in his heart, who caused him to be so careless?Who made him hit his head?He even had the nerve to say that he was careless. Does this person know what it means to be shameless?

This time, Mourning had been convincing the other party in his heart that he was his savior, but he still couldn't restrain the urge to scold the other party bitterly in his heart. In the end, he bit his lower lip hard and let himself Only when I couldn’t open my mouth did I succeed in restraining the urge to curse, take a deep breath, and tell myself that tolerance is a virtue tolerance is a virtue tolerance is a virtue tolerance is a virtue... shit!

"Nangongye, what happened to you just now? Did you take the wrong medicine? Ah? Why are you so close?"

Nangongye blinked, with an innocent face, "Because there is a leaf in Ah Ning's hair, I just want to help you take it off." He said, he spread his palm in front of Mourning, and there was actually a leaf lying on the palm of his hand. A piece of withered and yellow leaves, at that moment, Mourning even wanted to die.You said you just took a leaf, why did you get so close, why did you do such a misleading thing!Why do you still stick your mouth to his ear and talk!

Mourning really wanted to shout out so loudly, but unfortunately he couldn't.

She raised her eyelids and looked at Nangong Ye. The other person's face, which was thousands of times more beautiful than a woman's, was so innocent. When she saw her looking up at him, she smiled at herself——

Alas, he sighed heavily, and all the fire in his heart disappeared.

It was because he was not strong enough to be seduced by that beautiful face, causing him to think wildly. No one is to blame. Nangong Ye just helped him take the leaves out of kindness. From the beginning to the end, he was alone thinking about something. That's all!

Ugh!

He sighed heavily again, even the faint pain from the back of his head couldn't bring him back, and he said dejectedly, "Thank you so much."

Nangong Ye smiled: "You're welcome."

Mourning sighed.

That's the feeling, I'm so frankly aggrieved, I obviously feel that the other party is at fault, but why do I have to thank the other party in the end?And the other party said to him so generously that you are welcome...

What is this all about!

In the end, the person who came here to deliver peanut oil with a face full of excitement ended up leaving with a stomach full of aggrieved anger. The feeling of gratitude, therefore, became even more aggrieved.

The nights of ancient times are not as good as those of modern times. Except for some places where shops and evening markets are opened at night, there are no street lights in other places. It is pitch black, and places that are very lively during the day are completely deserted at night. There are fewer and fewer people around.Mourning was walking on the way back, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't get up and down, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. When he came back to his senses, he realized that no one around him could be seen. There is not even a ghost in the paint.

Mourning has a well-known secret, why is it a well-known secret?Because Mourning thought he was hiding it well, but in fact, almost everyone knew his secret, that is, he was afraid of ghosts!In modern times, anyone who knows Mourning knows this. Mourning always thought that he was hiding well and no one would find out. Little did he know that others already knew about it, but everyone still kindly did not expose him.

Because Mourning thinks that a big man, a big man who is pure man, is afraid of such non-existent things. He has told himself many times that those things don't exist, and told himself not to be afraid, but it's a pity, fear If this kind of thing can be removed easily, it is not a fear. Every time it is dark and there is no one around, he can't help but start to feel afraid. He also deeply despises such a cowardly self, It's a pity that there is no way, no matter how much you cast aside, you still can't change the fact that you are afraid of ghosts.

So, at this moment, Mourning, who was walking alone on the dark street, felt that his little heart was trembling and full of insecurity.Once again, I scolded myself in my heart, why do I like doing nothing so much?If you want to deliver things, you have to pick a time during the day. If it doesn't work, at least you have to call one more person by your side!It's a pity, no matter how much he scolded himself now, it was useless, and he couldn't change this established fact. He could only resist the growing fear in his heart, and ran back to Momo Restaurant.

A certain figure following him paused for a moment, his sharp eyes did not miss the fear on Mourning's face, he quietly quickened his pace and followed him unhurriedly until he saw Mourning's figure After running into the gate of Momo Restaurant, he stood there for a while, seeing that the gate of Momo Restaurant was tightly shut from the inside, and then turned around and went to the direction where he started his lightness kung fu.

All the way into Nangong Mansion, he went straight to the direction of Ting Yuxuan, and soon arrived at Nangong Ye's study, his footsteps slowed down, he stood in front of the study door and knocked lightly on the door twice, and heard a sound coming from inside. After coming in lowly, he pushed the door open and walked in.

Nangongye stood by the window with his back to the door, and he didn't turn his head when he heard the sound. His beautiful face was hidden in the shadows and he couldn't see clearly. The man in Tsing Yi who pushed the door and walked in had been following Nangongye all the time. Zhuqing, he lowered his face slightly, his voice was indifferent but respectful, and he whispered: "Master, Mr. Mo Ning has returned safely."

"En." Nangongye responded softly, and then slowly turned around, the face hidden in the shadows was exposed bit by bit in the flickering hazy yellow candlelight, with a trace of a smile , from the slightly raised corners of his eyes, it can be seen that he is in a very good mood at the moment.

Zhu Qing hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask the doubts in her heart, "Master, my subordinates can ask, why do you want to do this?"

Apparently, Zhuqing's question surprised Nangong Ye a bit, because his left eyebrow raised slightly, which was his usual action when he was surprised. His smile deepened a little, and he said casually, "Don't you think this is very interesting?"

Rao Zhuqing, who has always been cold-faced and cold-eyed, couldn't help showing a look of helplessness when he heard his answer. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but closed it again, and finally thought After thinking about it, I said: "Is this really good?"

Nangong Ye was speechless.

Zhu Qing paused for a moment, moved her slightly lowered head, her indifferent voice was mixed with a trace of hesitation, but she still said: "Madam will be sad."

Hearing Zhu Qing's words, Nangong Ye's expression became colder for a moment. He glanced at Zhu Qing lightly, but the next moment, he smiled again and asked lightly: "So what?"

So Zhuqing stopped talking.

Feeling helpless in her heart, Mrs. Nangong has been trying to find a good marriage for him since Nangong Ye came back. She has investigated almost all the unmarried women of the right age in Licheng, and even prepared all the portraits. , sent to Nangong Ye for him to choose, just wait for him to nod and agree, and he will be able to come to propose marriage immediately.

It's a pity that Nangong Ye is not the kind of person who can be arranged by others, even if that person is his own mother, so no matter what Mrs. Nangong says all these years, he is still as immovable as a mountain, what should he do, Mrs. Nangong thought that he didn't like the girls in Licheng, so she asked to investigate the girls in some nearby counties, and if they met suitable conditions, they would send portraits. When they heard that they were from Nangong Mansion If someone wanted it, he sent the portrait of his own daughter over in a hurry. If he was selected, he would be rich and prosperous, and he would never be able to enjoy it for a lifetime.

Several years have passed, and there are thousands if not hundreds of portraits. Mrs. Nangong started to get anxious. She wanted to hug her grandson, but her son didn't cooperate. It's a change from the previous soft-spoken persuasion attitude to become tougher. Nangong Yezao has become completely bored with Mrs. Nangong's forced marriage during this period, and she just tolerates it for the sake of her mother.

But this tolerance finally came to an end tonight.Thinking about it, Zhu Qing recalled his grandfather's ambiguous attitude towards Mourning just now. Mourning probably didn't know that when his grandfather bowed his face to him just now, in the eyes of outsiders, it looked like It was as if Nangong Ye was lowering his head to kiss him. He had good eyesight, so he could see clearly that the two were not kissing as they appeared on the surface, but in the eyes of another person, it might not seem like this, That servant who has no martial arts might think that the two of them are kissing after seeing it, right?Otherwise, why would you stumble and look shocked when you left?

He followed all the way, and really saw that servant stumbled into Mrs. Nangong's yard, and then gesticulated and said something in front of Mrs. Nangong. As for what he said, he didn't need to guess. What he thought he saw would be embellished and told to Mrs. Nangong!Before the servant could finish speaking, Mrs. Nangong, who was always gentle, stood up abruptly from her chair, her usual gentle expression was completely replaced by shock.

Zhuqing looked at it blankly for a while, then turned around and left without a sound. When she returned, she just saw Mourning leave and left, so she got Nangongye's order to secretly protect Mourning to go back.

The room became quiet, Zhu Qing, who had been with Nangong Ye for so long, should have retreated wisely at this moment, but he stood there with his head down and did not move for a long time, Nangong Ye looked at him in surprise , raised an eyebrow and asked: "Is there anything else?"

Zhu Qing shook his head, but nodded again the next moment, Nangong Ye suddenly smiled and said, "Since you have any doubts in your heart, then ask them." To him, Zhu Qing is not only a subordinate, but also a We are friends, so he has always been more tolerant of Zhuqing's words. Seeing that Zhuqing obviously had doubts in his heart at the moment, he asked him to raise them openly.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood a little bit, and asked, "Is it related to Aning?"

Zhu Qing nodded, "This subordinate wants to know, why did you pick Mr. Mourning?"

"You really want to know?" Nangong Ye raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised by his question.

Zhuqing nodded.He really wanted to know that there are so many people who like his grandfather, there are women, of course there are also men, but he has never seen his grandfather's attitude towards anyone in these years, even if his grandfather really wants to pick If someone came to act for Madam, shouldn't that mean picking one of those people?How could Mourning, a man of unknown origin, be chosen?

As if seeing through Zhuqing's thoughts, Nangong Ye just smiled and said, "It's because of Ah Ning's unknown origin, even if mother wanted to investigate, she couldn't find it, let alone—" The smile deepened a little, "——don't you think it's fun to tease him?"

Zhuqing was speechless for a moment.

But I have some doubts in my heart, is it really because of this reason?

Looking up at Nangongye thoughtfully, Zhuqing's expression at that moment was hard to express in words.Maybe his grandfather didn't notice it himself, but when he faced Mourning, his expression was clearly more gentle than before. He kept recalling what Lan Qi had said to him, and his grandfather's attitude towards Mourning , is very different.

For so many years, I have never seen his grandfather behave differently towards anyone. It is the first time for this person named Mourning to show such an expression on his face. Could it be that the kid Lan Qi really hit it off? ?Guessing like this in her heart, Zhu Qing also asked her question: "In the eyes of the master, is Mr. Mourning special?"

Asked by him like this, Nangong Ye was stunned, caught off guard, he frowned slightly, even the slightly upward arc of the lips in his eyes disappeared, he lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a long time, but suddenly he felt relieved. Frowning slightly, a faint smile returned to his eyes, Zhuqing heard his grandfather whisper in his pleasant voice: "It's not special, but it's different from others. "

As for how it is different, let alone others, maybe even the current him can't express it in words.

And Zhu Qing finally stopped talking, lowered her face slightly and saluted silently, then retreated silently, leaving only Nangong Ye with her eyebrows closed and her smile looking at the moonlight outside the window, her face under the shadow was blurred , can't see clearly.

Besides, when Mourning returned to Momo Restaurant, he was almost exhausted from running all the way in shock. The little baby and the little boy had already fallen asleep, and Mrs. Niu went back to her room to rest after coaxing the little baby and the little boy to sleep. Ah Niu hadn't rested yet, so when Mourning came back, only Ah Niu hadn't rested yet.

But Ah Niu saw him running so fast and thought that something happened, and asked around Mourning. Mourning had the nerve to say that he was afraid of those things, so he just made up a reason and got away with it. Fortunately, A Niu He didn't continue to ask any further, just told him that the hot water was ready, told him to take a bath quickly, then went back to the room while yawning, it seemed that Ah Niu was still here waiting for Mourning to wait. Door.

As soon as Ah Niu left, he was left alone here, and the ancient lights were no better than modern ones, only one candle was burning tremblingly there, and when the wind blew, it would sway unstoppably, and there were other people beside him. The time was fine, but now Mourning was the only one left, so he couldn't help but think about it. The more afraid he was, the more he couldn't help thinking about it.

Barely suppressing the fear in his heart, Mourning rushed back to the room and took his changed clothes to the bathroom. The fire in the hot water stove had not been completely extinguished, and the cauldron filled with water kept emitting white smoke , put two buckets of cold water next to it, which should have been prepared by A Niu, Mourning quickly extinguished the fire in the stove, scooped the hot water into the tub he used with a spoon, and then scooped it properly Some cold water goes in.

He touched the temperature of the water with his hand and felt that it was about the same, so he got up and took off his clothes and sat in the bathtub. He likes to take a bath in very hot water. After a day of work, his whole body is exhausted. Being able to soak in It was a very happy thing to be in the hot water, as if the fatigue of the whole body could be washed away, it was so comfortable that he wanted to sigh.
