and meet

Chapter 7 [Seven sons of Kaifeng]

Just after dawn, Luo Qingqiu got up and tidied up.Feng Siyu got up too, of course she wanted to send Luo Qingqiu off.

When they arrived at the gate of the post house, there was still a while before the appointed time, Zhan Zhao was already waiting there.

On the road just now, Luo Qingqiu said goodbye to Feng Siyu, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, saw Zhan Zhao, and finally smiled: "Master Zhan!"

"Master Zhan." Feng Siyu also greeted.

"Miss Luo, Zhan will take you to meet Lord Bao first." Zhan Zhao said to Luo Qingqiu.

"Okay." Luo Qingqiu agreed, then turned to Feng Siyu and said, "Then... send it here."

Feng Siyu pursed her lips and said softly, "Okay, take care of yourself."

After thinking about it, he still said to Zhan Zhao: "Master Zhan, please take care of Qingqiu."

"Miss Feng, don't worry."

Zhan Zhao led Luo Qingqiu into the flower hall of the post house. A majestic elder sat in the center with a dark complexion. Luo Qingqiu couldn't see whether there was a crescent moon on his forehead. On the right was a man who seemed to be older, a scholar. Appearance, gentle and refined.

"My lord, sir, this is the girl I told you about before." Because of Luo Qingqiu's reputation, Zhan Zhao naturally only told Bao Zheng that the little girl's parents would be harmed, it was too sad and inexplicable, coincidentally Luo Qingqiu was also going to Kaifeng, so he invited her to go with him, and also accompanied that poor little girl.

"Miss Luo, this is Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun."

"Luo Qingqiu has met Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun." Luo Qingqiu was slightly blessed, and his heart was uncontrollably excited.Naturally, it can't be compared with the feeling when I saw Zhan Zhao, but after all, I saw with my own eyes whether Mr. Bao is black or white, whether Mr. Gongsun is tall or short, and it is still unusual.It would be impolite to be self-absorbed.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce nodded.Just at this moment, a man walked in quickly.

"My lord, sir, my lord Zhan, the chariots and horses are ready and we can set off. This girl is..."

"Chao Dynasty, this girl is helping to take care of the little girl," Zhan Zhao explained.

"Oh." Wang Chao nodded and smiled at Luo Qingqiu, "Hi girl, my name is Wang Chao."

"Hello Captain Wang, my name is Luo Qingqiu."

Wang Chao was stunned: "How does the girl know that I am the captain?"

"Uh... just heard about it." Luo Qingqiu had never thought about it so much, and she was actually not sure whether the Dynasty was the school lieutenant as in the legend, but the TV novels have said so over the years, so it has always been Thinking so, blurted out.

"Oh..." Wang Chao didn't think too much. Although he was not as famous as Mr. Bao, maybe someone had heard of it.

"Wang Dynasty, is the little girl up?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Get up, Zhang Long is coaxing."

Zhan Zhao nodded and said to Bao Zheng, "My lord, let's go."

"it is good."

Luo Qingqiu, the four major lieutenants of Kaifeng Mansion, took a look from a distance, and got into the carriage with the little girl named "Xiaonan".The little girl looked about seven or eight years old, and she looked fine, apart from being listless, she didn't show any signs of washing her face with tears.Luo Qingqiu's temperament is very outgoing, he likes to talk, and can also make people laugh.It would be appropriate to let her accompany Xiaonan.

Luo Qingqiu hadn't coaxed the child much before, so he thought about striking up a conversation and said, "Xiaonan, how old are you?"

"Seven years old." Xiaonan looked at Luo Qingqiu and replied, "How old are you, sister?"

"Me." Luo Qingqiu smiled, "I'm seventeen."

"Oh..." There was nothing to say, and Xiaonan went back to wilting.

"Hmm..." Luo Qingqiu thought for a while, so let's just talk about people he knows, "Xiaonan, these grandpas and uncles in Kaifeng Mansion, who do you like the most?"

Without thinking, Xiaonan said, "Of course it's Uncle Zhan."

Luo Qingqiu said with a smile: "Is it because Uncle Zhan looks good?"

Xiaonan nodded fiercely: "Uncle Zhan is so good-looking!"

Luo Qingqiu let out a "puchi" laugh: "How pretty?"

"How beautiful, sister, can't you see it yourself?" Xiaonan asked strangely.

"My sister has bad eyesight and can't see clearly." This is the truth.From the first time they met Luo Qingqiu and saw Zhan Zhao's eyes, they just "seeed" and never saw clearly.With her short-sightedness, the normal distance between people is not enough to see the face clearly, she has to get close.But if it is not a relative, it is not appropriate to be so close to others.Therefore, when she looked at Zhan Zhao, she only stayed at the level where he should be handsome.

"It would be such a pity if my sister couldn't see Uncle Zhan's appearance!"

"That's why you have to tell my sister what Uncle Zhan looks like. How good-looking is he?"

"Hmm..." Xiaonan pondered, "It's a little prettier than my father."

Luo Qingqiu thought that she was going to say the description "eyes are like stars", but she didn't want to compare it with her father.But after thinking about it, seven or eight years old, isn't it the age when one feels that one's father is the best person in the world?When I was her age, I also thought that my father was the most perfect person in the world, he could do everything, he was good to me, and he was also a handsome guy.

It's a pity that she didn't think so anymore. She found that her father also had shortcomings. There were also times when he was annoying and powerless.

So far, I can't even see him anymore.

But at least he is still living in another time and space, which is much better than the death of Xiaonan's father.

Not wanting to make himself and Xiaonan sad, Luo Qingqiu asked again: "Then you like Uncle Zhan just because he is good-looking?"

"Well...others are also good. When I can't fall asleep, they still tell me stories."

"Oh?" Luo Qingqiu was curious, "Uncle Zhan can tell stories? What kind of story?"

"Well... once upon a time there was a little tiger."

"and then?"

"...and then I fell asleep."

Luo Qingqiu couldn't help laughing out loud again, Zhan Zhao's bedtime story was really effective, with just one sentence, the sleepless child fell asleep.It would be great if he was as old as her, and he could pester Zhan Zhao to tell him stories.

"Do you like listening to stories? My sister also has a lot of stories."

"Really?" Xiaonan's eyes lit up, "I like it, I like it!"

Luo Qingqiu hugged Xiaonan: "A long time ago, there was an emperor who liked to wear nice clothes very much. In order to dress beautifully, he spent all his money on clothes..."

In this way, starting with Zhan Zhao, Luo Qingqiu began to tell fairy tales to Xiaonan. "Fairy tales" are so novel and interesting in this era, Xiaonan is intoxicated when she hears them, and naturally she will not be addicted to sadness.

It's time to eat.The carriages and horses stopped at the door of a shop, and everyone went in to eat and rest for a while.

This shop is not big, but Bao Zheng and his party included a lot of messengers accompanying them. Although they sat down reluctantly, Xiaoer was puzzled: "Masters, there are not many people in this shop, if you let all masters have dinner, I'm afraid it will take an hour."

Zhan Zhao frowned when he heard that, waiting for an hour is indeed too long, but now it is a town, and the biggest store is like this, there will not be too many people, and there is no bigger city nearby, so it has to be like this.

"Then... let me help." Seeing Zhan Zhao frown, Luo Qingqiu volunteered.

"How can I bother you girl?" Gongsun Ce said.

"It's okay, I was a cook too." Luo Qingqiu smiled.

"Sister—" Xiaonan tugged at the corner of Luo Qingqiu's clothes, a little bit reluctant.It didn't take long for Xiaonan to be attached to Luo Qingqiu.

"Good boy," Luo Qingqiu patted Xiaonan's head, "Are you hungry? Elder sister goes to help, so Xiaonan can eat earlier. I'll be back in a while."

Only then did Xiaonan reluctantly let go.

Luo Qingqiu touched Xiaonan's face again, and asked Xiao Er to lead the way to the kitchen.

Looking at the scene of Luo Qingqiu getting along with Xiaonan, Zhan Zhao felt warm in his heart.He walked over and asked Xiaonan, "How is this sister?"

"Okay." Xiaonan smiled brightly, without any haze.

"What have you been talking about, sister?" Zhan Zhao smiled warmly.

"My sister told me stories. The stories my sister told were very interesting, and my sister was also very interesting. When she told something interesting, she would giggle herself."

"That's interesting."

Even with Luo Qingqiu's help, it was still busy for nearly an hour with so many people wanting to eat.

Fortunately, he was able to eat it at last, Luo Qingqiu picked up some food for Xiaonan, and he ate it himself.

Then Gongsun Ce at the table beside him said with a smile, "I never imagined that there would be a chef who knows how to cook in such a town."

"That girl fired it." Xiao Er said honestly.

Gongsun Ce looked at Luo Qingqiu in surprise: "Unexpectedly, the girl can hide her secrets. A chef with this skill, even in the capital, is also competed for by all the restaurants."

Luo Qingqiu smiled shyly: "Sir, I was joking. If I go to the capital, I can find a job to make a living. I don't expect any big restaurants to compete for it."

"Miss looking for an errand in the capital? Then Yuxian Restaurant and Baifanlou are good places to go." Gongsun Ce recommended.

"...In my opinion, the public kitchen in Kaifeng Mansion is the best place to go."

"The girl is joking. The salary of the public chef in Kaifeng Mansion is far lower than that of a big restaurant."

"Not for salary." Luo Qingqiu said seriously, "Just for years of obsession."

Hearing the word "obsession", Zhan Zhao frowned slightly.

"Obsession?" Gongsun Ce was puzzled.

"Master Bao is well-known, and Kaifeng Mansion is also a place that everyone admires. I have longed for Lord Bao and Kaifeng Mansion for many years. If I can work in Kaifeng Mansion, it will be a dream come true. Besides, in It is an infinite honor to work in Kaifeng Mansion, even if you are just a cook. I am alone and don’t need to support a family, and I don’t need so much money. As long as I can eat and clothe myself, even if I don’t have a good salary, I still want to go to Kaifeng Mansion. The cook. It’s just that Kaifeng Mansion is different from restaurants after all, so there should be enough manpower. If there is no shortage of manpower, it’s probably not my turn.” Luo Qingqiu wasn’t telling lies.It is true that she wanted to go to Kaifeng Mansion for Zhan Zhao.But since liking Zhan Zhao, loving Wu and Wu, the word "Kaifeng Mansion" is different in her heart.She does have yearning and admiration for Kaifeng Mansion.

After Zhan Zhao finished speaking, his brows relaxed.

Seeing Luo Qingqiu's sincerity, Gongsun Ce asked: "Miss...do you really want to work in Kaifeng Mansion?"

Luo Qingqiu nodded.

"The girl really hit the spot. A few days ago, the official chef of the Kaifeng Mansion happened to have a cook who resigned, and there was a shortage of manpower."
