Chapter 7
Lu Mansion, evening.
Lu Jingzhi was lying on a chair under the catalpa tree in the yard, drinking tea. His eyes were looking forward and his ears were listening to the sounds elsewhere. His face was indifferent. At this moment, he saw Jiang who was on his way to recruit the cook of Xiangrui Tower. night.
Jiang Xiao was holding a food box in his hand. When he saw Lu Jingzhi, he bowed respectfully, "Young Master."
Lu Jingzhi did not stand up, but played with the tea cup in his hand carelessly. Looking at Jiang Xiao's expression, he knew that the matter must not be done, and he suddenly felt a little interested.
"How's your inquiry about the cook going?" Lu Jingzhi put down the tea cup in his hand.
Jiangxiao knelt down and apologized, "Master, the negotiation has not been concluded. No matter what price my subordinates offer, he will not be moved."
Jiangxiao, who has always been reliable in his work, has not been able to capture anyone. Also, this is the only one in his family. There must have been many people who wanted to poach him in the past. Presumably his master is also a person and manages him well.
Lu Jingzhi sat up and raised his hand to signal for the night, "As expected, there must have been a lot of people who wanted to poach people in the past. A cook who can be poached at once is not a good cook. If you can poach someone today, others can poach them tomorrow."
Then he looked at the things in Jiangxiao's hand, "Did you bring them back from Xiangrui Building?"
Jiang Xiao stood up and handed the things in his hands to Lu Jingzhi, "Yes, that cook said he didn't want to leave Xiangrui Building, but he could open a back door to sell some of his signature dishes."
Lu Jingzhi chuckled lightly, "Haha~" What's going on? He didn't want to betray his master, but he still wanted to use things to seduce others. He shook his head slightly and murmured, "Interesting, it's really interesting~"
"Come on, introduce me to Xiangruilou's signature dishes." Lu Jingzhi stood up and straightened his sleeves.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly opened the food box, and the aroma hit his face.
Jiangxiao brought out the packaged dishes, pointed to the big plump dumplings and said, "This is the lion's head from Xiangruilou", then pointed to a plate of slices and introduced, "This dish is eggplant (xiang No. 1). "Three times)", "This is Rouge Goose Breast", "This is" Kung Pao Chicken, a total of four dishes. "
Lu Jingzhi picked up the chopsticks and started tasting.
"Okay, please step back and go about your business."
Lu Jingzhi waved his hand, signaling for the night to go down, and he ate a few dishes by himself.
"Yes, I am resigning."
Fortunately, the chef at Xiangrui Pavilion turned on a small stove for him when cooking, otherwise he wouldn't be able to taste such delicious food at all.
Lu Jingzhi looked at the dishes in his hands and couldn't help but frowned. Is the chef at Xiangrui House so unusual?
He didn’t know who he was following, but the food he cooked was something he had never eaten before. Each of these four dishes has its own characteristics, full of color, flavor and taste, all of which appeal to the taste buds. If you ask him which dish he likes best, he will definitely say it is the second dish. This kind of flaky dish goes very well with the meal, and I think it would be great if paired with some wine.
The desire to poach people stirred in my heart again.
Lu Jingzhi was a little full after eating, so he put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He got up and went to the pavilion in the yard to admire the lotus pond in early autumn.
Looking down from a high place, the lotus leaves are connected together, like beauties who have just emerged from the bath, smiling at Lu Jingzhi.
The breeze blows, the water is shimmering, and occasionally a few dragonflies land on the water, playing around happily.
Such a scenery is really pleasant, and paired with a pot of tea, it is really a beautiful thing in life.
So Lu Jingzhi, who didn't follow common sense, planned to go out for a walk.
In order not to disturb the people in the house, Lu Jingzhi called Jiang Xiao and took Jiang Xiao over the wall. Lu Jingzhi was quite good at climbing over the wall, and he was able to climb over with a single effort.
Although Jiangxiao knew some martial arts, he was not very good at it, and it took him a while to figure it out.
The early autumn breeze blows slowly, and the weeping willows by the river are swaying gently and gracefully as if they have been cast by fairy magic.
As soon as he landed, his eyes were attracted by the scene not far away.
There is a girl standing under the weeping willow not far away, wearing a green smoked sweater, a pleated skirt with mist and green grass, and a thin veil of green water. Her shoulders are cut into a waist, and her muscles are like fat. Ruoyoulan.
Fold your slender waist and take small steps, showing your bright wrists in light gauze.
Her eyes are full of clear spring water, and a hollow gold hairpin is inserted diagonally into the bun on her head, dotted with purple jade, and tassels are sprinkled on her black hair.
The fragrant jade is tender and beautiful, and the beauty is more delicate than flowers. The fingers are like peeling onions and the mouth is like vermilion. Every frown and every smile touches the heart and soul.
Such a beautiful woman is truly incredibly beautiful.
Lu Jingzhi looked a little crazy. It wasn't until he heard footsteps behind him that he came back to his senses and secretly sighed. Is Lingfeng Town so nurturing? The daughter of Fang Yuan’s wife whom I met during the day is the same as the one under the weeping willow by the river tonight.
"Sir, what are you looking at?"
There was some doubt in Jiang Xiao's tone, and Lu Jingzhi finally calmed down.
There was a girl standing under a tree not far away, with a little red fox beside her, as if she was waiting for someone.
Lu Jingzhi did not recognize that this was the girl he had seen in Xiangrui Tower during the day. Xia Wan wore a veil during the day, but she sneaked out at night so she didn't wear it.
"Nothing, let's go." Lu Jingzhi walked into the bustling city without looking back.
"Oh." Jiangxiao followed closely as if he wasn't very smart.
At this time, Xia Wan was waiting for her little maid Xia Yu. Xia Yu went back to her house to pick up things, and Xia Wan planned to come out to inspect the market in the evening.
Soon.
"Miss, here it is." Xia Yu handed a package of things in his arms to his lady.
Xia Wan asked Xia Yu to go back to her house to get some intoxicating drugs that she had made before. Although Xia Yu was good at Kung Fu, sometimes it was difficult for her to fight with her four hands. The intoxicating drugs could knock people out for as long as a cup of tea. It was enough time for them to run away, something like this was prepared for danger.
