After Pan Jinlian entered the door, I turned black

I lay on the top of the wall, poked my head out, and really saw Xiuxiu at the bottom of the wall, and said in a pretty voice, "Come here, I'll give you the box, you take it back, and return the box to me."

Xiuxiu turned her back to me, she nodded and said nothing, I said strangely: "What are you doing? Come and get it, it's too heavy for me to carry."

Xiuxiu just ignored me, I saw her ears were red and her body was shaking slightly, could it be that there was a strong wind in the rockery cave above the pool?

I scratched my head, a piece of straw fell off my head, I just moved the stool to the firewood house, there was too much grass clippings in it, it was time to clean it up.

I said: "Xiuxiu! You are like a door god, why don't you stay still! The venison is delicious."

I was in a hurry, afraid that someone would come over, so I sat down on the top hat of the wall.

'Ding dong! '

Across the rockery, a fishing rod sticks out from a crack in the rock, and throws it into the pond with a crisp sound.

I will kill my grandma!There are people!Look at Xiuxiu's quail appearance, she is designated as the master of the mansion!

Apart from Lu Chenqing, who in this mansion dares to be the master, what do I want to do by overturning the wall of his house in broad daylight?

In the blink of an eye, I had already turned my head to leave, and the person over there had already spoken.

"What's the matter with running away in a hurry? You climbed the wall of my house, but you want to leave?"

At this time, my back was facing the other side, and my yard was in front of me, thinking that if I jumped, would I land with my feet first, or with my face first.

I made a bitter face: "Who wants to go, this is my courtyard wall, why is it yours?"

The person behind chuckled, just when I was about to let go and leave without losing my face.

The man said: "Xiuxiu, bring me some venison."

I stopped my feet, but I forgot. As soon as I left, it was hard for Xiuxiu to face that guy. Although Xiuxiu said that she looked similar to the young lady who died young in Lu's mansion, but what can she say? How true, if Lu Chenqing really wants to punish Xiuxiu for this matter, it will be my fault.

I thought to myself that Xiuxiu probably didn't have time to inform me. I'm afraid that someone was fishing behind the rockery after setting up the bamboo pole.

Reluctantly, I turned around and handed the food box to Xiuxiu who was below. The two looked at each other, the eyes that only good sisters can understand.

Xiuxiu respectfully carried the food box, stood on the path leading to the entrance of the rockery, and said: "Master, there are many insects and ants inside, and the place is narrow, why don't you come out and eat?"

At this moment, Xiuxiu half-bent, facing the boulder, if she hadn't heard the voice of someone there, she seemed to think she was confessing to the stone.

I saw that the big stone hadn't moved for a long time, and I didn't know where the courage came from. I laughed loudly and said, "Master Lu, we are also neighbors. Are you afraid of meeting people? Are you shy? Let me say no." Hurry up, you're wearing a mask, so I can't see how handsome you are."

This last sentence scared Xiuxiu to death, she winked at me anxiously, almost begging me to go down.

I became more and more reckless, not cowardly and timid in the past, but I practiced my courage by walking around with Aunt Yao.

I said again: "Don't be afraid, Mr. Lu Xiaolang. I live next door. I have been sisters with Xiuxiu for many years. Even if you are not good-looking, I don't sing and sing so well that I know from all over the world. My daughter is from every family, and her speech is not pleasant. , don’t forget to take it to heart.”

These words make me want to survive, so I bet that Lu Chenqing is not such a small belly, it's strange that Xiuxiu keeps talking about how good her young master is in my ears all day long, I want to see it today.

Xiuxiu was about to cry, she whispered to me: "Hurry up and go back, you're talking like that."

I grinned and was about to leave when the guy said, "Put the venison in the rolling shed, heat a pot of Jinhua wine, and pick up two plates of fine fruits in the kitchen."

Xiuxiu hurriedly responded, put down the venison jar, leaned against the begonia window with her feet on her feet, and returned the food box to me, not forgetting to tell me to leave quickly.

I really won't leave, I didn't see Mr. Lu Xiaolang's true face, wouldn't that be a great pity?

I looked at the mask that had fallen from the foot of the boulder and smiled.

If the guy wants to pick it up, he has to turn it out. Every time he goes back and forth, I can definitely see if he is better looking than the young lady in the restaurant.

As soon as Xiuxiu left, I sat there with my legs folded. After a while, I saw a soft smoke-colored stone coming out from behind. Lu Chenqing walked to the base of the wall with his hands behind his back, and looked up at me.

I sit on top of the wall and he stands under the top of the wall.

Seeing me vaguely is like seeing misty and rainy weather, green mountains and green cypresses, surrounded by a faint and alienated mist, less human fireworks, and more immortal figures.

This person is unusual.

Lu Chenqing looked at me coldly, and said after a long time: "It's so ugly."

I'm ugly?

I put my foot down and was about to refute, when I moved my body, a few wisps of grass fell from my head, leisurely landing at the guy's feet.

I swear, I will never put a footstool in a woodshed again.

I looked at Lu Chenqing under the wall with a red birthmark covering half of his face, and wanted to pay him back, but I couldn't say anything.

I am a kind-hearted daughter by nature, and I can't say anything that touches people's hearts.

I said: "No, I want to look like Mr. Xiao Lang, so what are you worried about? I'll go to the pool early."

Lu Chenqing raised his eyebrows: "What are you doing in the pool?"

I smiled: "I won't live anymore."

The guy put down his fishing rod, and slowly took out his handkerchief to wipe his hands. He really looked good, but his face was a bit scary.

Lu Chenqing smiled: "Your daughter's house, climb the wall to my house, and only feed Xiuxiu?"

I said: "Otherwise what?"

Lu Chenqing said again: "How do I look at it? You look like a thief who burglarized a house. Just a few days ago, I couldn't find the Eight Immortals Naohai Duan inkstone that I usually use. Could it be that you took advantage of your friendship with Xiuxiu to go to Just steal it from my house."

This fellow bears vengeance!

I knew that he was arranging things indiscriminately, and his verbal skill was not as good as mine, so I threatened Xiuxiu, if his laoshizi's inkstone disappeared, I would be fine, Xiuxiu would not be charged.

I secretly rolled my eyes, and said in a low voice: "Look at my mouth, I was just watching the wind, talking nonsense, Mr. Lu Xiaolang must forgive me, don't take it to heart, I'm sorry."

I forgot to put on the hat on the wall for a while, and saluted Lu Chenqing with both hands, suddenly my feet slipped, and I jumped straight into the garden in a daze.

I originally thought that Lu Chenqing would have to pick me up no matter what, but that servant couldn't help but took two steps back, and I fell into the flower garden with my limbs stretched out and my face first hitting the ground, causing my back to hurt and my legs to hurt.

A water of precious flowers and trees, crushed to pieces.

I said in a muffled voice, "You... are really ruthless."

Lu Chenqing smiled, like many coquettish literati, he took out the black bamboo fan from his sleeve and shook it: "Since Miss Ying'er is so generous to me, I have the right to accept your apology. I think my inkstone should be released." In the school, I can't bring it back."

When I finally got up, cleaned my face and clothes, I saw Lu Chenqing sitting in the roll shed, simmering venison on a low fire, scalding wine in a clay oven, I didn't even pick up the mask, so I'm not afraid that outsiders like me will see it.

A scent of wine wafted out, I sniffled, and my thoughts wandered for a while.

I said: "Mr. Xiaolang is laughing at you. There is something special about eating venison. You have to drink it with wine to have the taste of a fairy."

Lu Chenqing raised her eyebrows, pinched the small white porcelain wine glass with her thumb and index finger, and brought it to her mouth, her Adam's apple just moved.

I have a dry mouth for a while.

Lu Chenqing looked at me with a smile: "Are you the daughter of the Yao family?"

I patted the grass clippings on my sleeve: "Not really."

Lu Chenqing poured another glass, and the wine overflowed along the rim of the glass and fell on the stone table.

It's a pity that a jug of good wine, I sighed secretly.

Lu Chenqing gestured to the opposite side: "Have a drink?"

I waved my hand: "I won't use it much." I walked up to the rolling shed freely, and my eyes wandered directly to the pot of wine.

The corners of Lu Chenqing's mouth were curved, and the appearance of smiling was not very scary.

Lu Chenqing said: "It's okay, let's talk about the origin, I still have a jar of high-quality Jinhua wine in my wine cellar, it was brought from Tokyo, and I can't find it anywhere else."

Why did he offer a big gift to hook me up?I asked myself if I didn't let him see the clue.

Thinking about that jar of Jinhua wine, I had nothing to shame, so I said that I was in Wu's house and then in Yao's house.

I said: "Second Uncle Yao is a good man, he took me in, and my aunt taught me how to cook, so I'm gone."

I vaguely guessed that the people in Lu's mansion had already checked out the eighteen generations of the neighbors' ancestors. Now it doesn't matter whether I say it or not, why not sell it well.

Lu Chenqing ate a piece of venison with chopsticks: "It's not bad, it's no worse than famous chefs in Beijing."

You always say that it is, at any rate, Aunt Yao's maternal ancestors came out of the imperial dining room.

Xiuxiu finally brought over four more dishes of fruit. I glanced at them, and there were fresh lotus seeds, fresh walnut kernels, fresh black water chestnuts and snow lotus root, all of which were fine nuts, which were delicious to enjoy.

Xiuxiu glanced at me, with a troubled expression on her face: "Master, Ying'er has no ill intentions."

I smiled wryly, it's fine if the girl doesn't speak, but when she speaks, it's a bit deceiving.

Lu Chenqing said: "I heard from Mammy that I want to invite you to be a cook in our house? That's what it means."

How come I don't know about this?

I hurriedly said, "How do you say that? I don't know."

Lu Chenqing didn't explain, but said: "Your appearance is far worse than that of a cook, even if you come to beg me personally, I will not allow it. It is useless not to kidnap Xiuxiu to intercede for you in the future."

In an instant, I felt that my legs didn't hurt anymore, my waist didn't hurt anymore, and my fists were hardened.

I frowned and said, "Mr. Lu, I think you're worrying too much. You, the cook of the Lu family, even invited me with four soft sedan chairs, but I don't like it."

How capable is your job as a cook in the Lu family?Arrange for me to intercede in the way of Nanny Li and Xiuxiu, and want to enter your Lu residence?It's really ridiculous, this person is too thick-skinned, does he really think he is from a wealthy family?

Seeing that I was about to leave, Xiuxiu hurriedly grabbed my sleeve: "Ying'er, don't be annoyed, I don't have time to tell you about this."

Then he said to Lu Chenqing: "Master, last time you ate jujube yam cakes, didn't you agree? Nanny Li made them, but Ying'er made those cakes."

How do you say that?It's not that Nanny Li has bad teeth and wants to eat some soft and rotten food, so she asked me to make it?

It was originally eaten by Lu Chenqing, a picky monkey.

I said: "Ying'er, let go, whoever wants to cook for him, that's my filial piety, I dare to go into his belly, it's so boring, I despise his poor cook, I'm leaving."

Seeing that I was very conflicted, Xiuxiu was impatient, knowing that my master, if she really got angry with Lu Chenqing, she probably wouldn't be able to persuade me to come to Lu's residence again in the future.

Lu Chenqing waved the black bamboo fan, and said coolly: "You really don't like my Lu family? That's up to you."

I gasped and said, "What are you doing!"

Lu Chenqing said to Xiuxiu: "Take her to the kitchen, and bring her whatever you want. If it really suits me, let her stay."

This guy really knows how to speak human words, isn't it okay if he doesn't like it?

I just want to poison his mouth right now.

I just stood still, Lu Chenqing said leisurely: "Maybe my Fang Yantai is not in the school, maybe it was really stolen by a worldly thief."

Before the words finished, I dragged Xiuxiu out of the garden, and I heard a leisurely sigh behind me.

The root of the thief!

Blackmail people with a clear eye!

Let me have a bowl of chicken noodles with pepper, ephedra and ginger, enough for you to eat!

When I arrived at Lu's kitchen, Xiuxiu called everyone else outside, and I was the only one in charge.

After a while, a steaming bowl of pepper, ephedra, ginger and shredded chicken noodles was brought to Lu Chenqing.

I said: "I only know how to do these two things. If you eat it, if it doesn't suit your taste, you can't blame me."

Lu Chenqing's complexion remained unchanged, looking at the bowl of oily chicken noodles with a tangy peppery smell, he seemed to be looking for flowers.

Lu Chenqing said: "The smell is okay, but I don't know how it tastes?"

I proudly said: "Whether it's good or bad, you'll know if you can't eat it?"

Xiuxiu handed over the chopsticks, Lu Chenqing really ate and stopped.

I laughed: "Oh, I just forgot. I don't know if Mr. Xiaolang eats spicy food, and he put a lot of vine peppers from Tongchuan. I think you can eat it?"

I didn't hesitate to stare at Lu Chenqing, and saw him stop for a while, without changing his face, he ate the remaining half of the bowl of chicken shredded noodles, and he didn't forget to wipe his mouth with a handkerchief after eating, his every move was very sensible The appearance of a big family upbringing.

Now I'm stunned, he... isn't hot?

Xiuxiu smiled and said, "Master, is it okay to eat?"

Lu Chenqing said: "It's okay."

I really want to hit him on the forehead with my fist, but you can take it all?

I only heard Lu Chenqing say: "I tasted this craft, but you know how to do it in Beijing?"

I smiled: "The person who taught me this craft, his ancestors came from the imperial dining room of the official family."

Lu Chenqing nodded, and glanced at the exposed eaves on the other side of the wall. His eyes were sharp for a moment, but disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I don't know why he has such eyes, or maybe I'm wrong.

For a long time, just when I thought that Lu Chenqing was smacking the bowl of chicken noodle, I should let me go back, when suddenly I heard Lu Chenqing start talking.

Lu Chenqing said: "You said, Beijing is good, and Qinghe County is also good?"

But this stumped me.

I said: "My daughter's family has only lived in Qinghe County, and the farthest I have ever been is my hometown in Yanggu County. I dare not think about the prosperous and prosperous place in Beijing."

All right, why are you asking me this for nothing?Good or bad, isn't that what people with a discerning eye can see?A town in Qinghe County, how can it compare to the bustling places in Tokyo.

Lu Chenqing smiled but said: "Everyone knows that Tokyo is the capital of the country, and it is indeed very good."

As he said that, he took a manuscript and looked at it, and didn't ask me any more.

As expected, Xiuxiu served in front of the young master. Knowing that Lu Chenqing wanted to read, she led me out of the courtyard and walked towards the gate.

When they reached the door, Xiuxiu said: "You go home first, I will see you another day."

I said: "You can't eat that venison, it's a pity, just wait for me for a while, and I'll bring you another dish?"

Xiuxiu bumped into my arm and said: "You are good, thank you, Second Uncle and the others treat you well, you can't just pick up things and give them away, I don't have a stutter? Young master doesn't have a good appetite , he has some left in that jar, and I will reward the rest, so don't worry about it."

So I was relieved, the two talked a few words, and went home.

It's just that Xiuxiu and I got together again in the future, but she told me that her good young master didn't leave her a bite at all, and she ate up the pot of stewed venison by herself, she was sad, and she wanted me to do it again.

That's another story.

I went into the courtyard humming a little tune, and saw Yao Fang holding up a book, reciting under the magnolia tree, and was surprised when he saw me come back.

Yao Fang said: "I've been sitting for a long time, and you never go out, why do you come back from outside?"

There is no back door in the courtyard of Yao's house, and there is only one front door to enter and exit. I climbed the wall to the Lu's house, so Yao Fang naturally didn't know.

I said: "I went out early, you never saw how early I sent venison to Jianbi and Xiuxiu, she loves to eat."

Yao Fang nodded, but didn't ask any more questions.

I remembered what Yao Fang said that day, and said: "Brother Fang, you said that Lu Chenqing is used to wielding knives and guns, how is his skill?"

Yao Fang was even more surprised: "Why did you ask about this today? His kung fu, according to the words of the master, is just so-so for killing the enemy in battle, but there are no more."

I was really surprised when I heard this. I didn't expect Lu Chenqing to be so powerful, and he was unwilling to pick me up. Seeing me fall off the wall, it can be seen that this person can't help but be cruel.

I was a little bit discouraged, so I went into the house, where my aunt was distributing the rose flower pancakes to each family. This is the last batch of flower pancakes this year. If you want to eat them, you have to wait until next year.

Unexpectedly, almost a year has passed since I came to Yao's house.

I cleaned my hands, put all the cages, drawers and boxes back together, thinking about what happened in the Lu residence, I had to let the aunt know, so I told them all about it.

Aunt Yao smiled and said, "Silly girl, what are you so afraid of? If I am afraid that outsiders will know that my grandpa has committed crimes, then I will be accused of leaving Beijing, and I will not teach you this craft. If I dare to teach you, I will not be afraid." Others know how many years have passed, so they are even less afraid."

I put my mind at ease and said: "My aunt is right, I was thinking too much."

After two days, finally the whole family was not busy, Yao Fang was studying, Yao Zheng circled around the feet of the aunt, the family was harmonious and beautiful.

Sometimes I also think again, if I have always been the daughter of the Yao family, it would be great.

A father who doesn't get confused about big things and small things, a mother who died young, a stepmother who didn't have to fight and scold, an uncle who is full of emotions, life is ordinary and peaceful, isn't it good?

I picked up the magnolia flowers that had fallen all over the floor, made flower strings and hung them on the door of the bed tent. The room was filled with a delicate fragrance, which smelled very good.

I had only made a few strings when I heard someone knocking on the door.

I put down the bunch of flowers and opened the door, and saw Li Mama smiling kindly, standing at the front of the door, followed by a little girl who only kept her hair.

I said: "It's Mammy Li, a rare visitor, please come in." Then I called inside: "Mother, it's Nanny Li here."

Because I gave Xiuxiu flower pancakes to eat, and that girl happened to offer treasures to Nanny Li. Later, Nanny Li came to buy it twice, so I got to know her.

The aunt came out with a smile and said Wanfu: "Mother Li, please come in quickly, Yinger, go, order a bowl of strong scented tea, my mother likes it."

The two exchanged a few words before sitting down.

Nanny Li said: "Let's not sit down any longer, I'm here today to ask the eldest lady." Then she looked at me.
