Aunt Zhu asked softly: "Does Chef Xie plan to stay here for a long time?"
"Well, I don't know how long I'm going to stay."
"Chef Xie, please give me your luggage. I'll help you clean up the room. Just leave the dirty clothes for me to wash in the future. Leave some trivial matters to me as well. Chef Xie just needs to prepare the dishes."
"good."
Aunt Zhu took Fu Xie's luggage back to the room, cleaned the room, and then went to the kitchen and saw that Fu Xie had already started preparing dinner.
Curiously, she studied nearby, but she didn't find anything special about Chef Xie, just a simple method. The cooking skills of those previous chefs astonished even a person like her who lived in a wealthy family.
No matter what, being able to get the lady to eat is better than anything else.
Or maybe he was lucky and happened to meet the young lady wanting to eat.
"Chef Xie, since you live here forever, I have something to tell you."
"Please say."
"There's a glutton here, don't be surprised if there's something missing from the kitchen."
"What the hell?"
Aunt Zhu chuckled: "Glutty!"
Xie Fu turned around and asked in confusion: "Aunt Zhu, what do you mean by this?"
After Aunt Zhu couldn't help but smile, she said: "I don't know how to tell you. Anyway, don't be too surprised when you meet this gluttonous ghost. This gluttonous ghost looks harmless to humans and animals, but in fact She's quite fierce, and she doesn't like others looking at her."
As he spoke, he looked around, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Be careful, you will die."
Xie Fu said: "Aunt Zhu, in broad daylight, you made my skin stand on end."
Aunt Zhu sneered: "Anyway, it'll be fine if you don't stare at her. Even if you see her, treat her as transparent and remember."
"You scared me on purpose."
"Well...it's a good thing that you're afraid."
It was not yet dinner time, and Yan Yu was already urging him. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Fu Xie sitting in the yard, whittling wood, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Xie Fu seemed to be very absorbed in it, until Yan Yu came to him and smelled a fragrant breeze swaying from the hem of her skirt, then she looked up.
Yan Yu asked with a smile on her face: "Is dinner ready?"
Xie Fu took a look at the sky and said, "Come back in half an hour."
Yan Yu said displeasedly: "Does it still take half an hour? Are you not even prepared?"
"Anyway, come back in half an hour."
"Hey, please understand. You are here to cook for the lady. Do you understand or not?"
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Miss Yan Yu, I find you are quite wordy."
Yan Yu said loudly: "I'm so long-winded! You want to get things done, but I don't even bother to talk to you."
Xie Fu asked back: "Did I do something bad?"
Yan Yu was speechless and snorted: "I'll come back in half an hour." Suddenly she became angry and stopped and turned around: "Don't mess around with what you have and what you don't have. If you delay things, I will punish you."
After finishing the food, Fu Xie turned around and entered the kitchen. Suddenly, his expression was stunned. All the fruits and vegetables he had prepared were gone.
He is no longer the Xie Fu he used to be. He can steal all the food in front of him. This ghost is quite powerful.
Could it really be a ghost? Aunt Zhu really scared him.
Xie Fu smiled bitterly and had to prepare again.
Half an hour later, Yan Yu arrived on time. Seeing that Xie Fu hadn't done it yet, he immediately took the opportunity to attack: "Why hasn't it been done yet?"
Xie Fu responded: "The things I prepared were eaten by a glutton." As he spoke, he paid special attention to Yan Yu's expression.
After Yan Yu was surprised, he said calmly: "Forget it, just do it quickly."
Xie Fu asked: "Miss Yan Yu, is there really a ghost in this house?"
Yan Yu smiled: "Yes."
Xie Fu asked: "Then why are you not afraid at all?"
Yan Yu immediately puffed up her proud chest after hearing this: "I don't do anything wrong and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. There's nothing easy to deceive. Only people who often do bad things will be afraid." What he said meant something.
Xie Fu saw that he couldn't ask, so he didn't ask again.
After a while, dinner was ready, and a bowl of ginkgo porridge was placed in the middle of the large plate. This porridge replenishes vitality and is especially good for the weak and sick.
There are some unfamiliar fruits around the plate, white, red, yellow and green, very beautiful, like a beautiful scenery.
Making such a beautiful thing was exactly what Yan Yu wanted, and she couldn't help but say, "It's so beautiful. Just looking at it makes me want to eat it."
As he spoke, he saw a pink and delicate peach blossom in the middle, and asked curiously: "Are these peach blossoms edible?"
Xie Fu smiled and said, "It's for the young lady's eyesight and pleasure."
Yan Yu deliberately took a sip, and the elegant and light fragrance came. Looking at the charming pink blossoms, it was really pleasing to the eyes and relaxed.
"I'm leaving."
Yan Yu took the plate and left happily.
The spring evening is approaching, and although spring has arrived, there is still some chill in the breeze.
Wang Wanzhi stood under the eaves, listening to the clanging sound, as if savoring the passage of time.
The peach blossoms are shallow and deep, like makeup with even shades. The spring breeze helps the broken heart and blows off the white clothes.
Yan Yu's voice suddenly floated up: "Miss, why are you out? You are weak. Be careful of the wind. Go back to the house quickly."
Yan Yu came closer, holding the big plate with both hands, but couldn't free her hands to support Wang Wanzhi.
Wang Wanzhi smiled and said, "Are you finally willing to do it?" Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the scenery, which looked like a spring scene, and asked, "What's the name of this again?"
Yan Yu faltered: "Well...he said it was called Chunxiao Moment."
After Wang Wanzhi raised her eyebrows and thought for a while, she smiled sweetly and said: "Good... a good name."
Yan Yu was stunned for a moment. She didn't want to say this name just now, she just felt it was a bit frivolous.
Wang Wanzhi smiled and said: "I'm very hungry, I want to savor this spring night..."
As he spoke, his cheeks suddenly turned red, and two charming peach blossoms appeared out of thin air on his pale cheeks.
Yan Yu had never seen Wang Wanzhi in such a coy manner. Although she was weaker than her clothes, her body was slim but not out of place. She chanted: "The peach blossoms are smiling shyly, as if they are the most affectionate when they are not yet blooming."
Wang Wanzhi said lightly: "Bring it in, there are so many words."
"The lady talks a lot."
Wang Wanzhi was in a happy mood, and coupled with her hunger, she ate a lot during this meal.
Have expectations and desires, and only then can you be deeply satisfied.
Yan Yu wanted to catch a glimpse of the young lady's shy expression again, so she deliberately asked, "Miss, is this spring night okay?"
Wang Wanzhi was calm and quiet at this moment, and responded lightly: "Okay." She reached out and picked up the peach blossom, put it on the tip of her nose and took a gentle sniff.
The elegant and light fragrance comes, it is not strong, it is vague, it seems to be there and it is not there, which makes people want to catch it.
"Miss, he said that after you finish the porridge, he will prepare dessert for you. I will go get it right away."
Wang Wanzhi smiled and said, "I can't eat any more."
However, Yan Yu hurried away and came back in a hurry, holding a disc in his hand. On the disc was a piece of wood. It was inappropriate to call it wood. The wood had edges and corners, but it was made up of many small pieces of wood spliced together. become.
Wang Wanzhi smiled and said, "Is this dessert?"
Yan Yu looked strange: "I don't know what he did. He asked me to bring a piece of wood. Are you asking Miss to eat the wood? Miss, let's not be so stupid and let him deceive us. How can we eat this wood?" .”
Wang Wanzhi smiled after hearing Yan Yu's words: "This is Luban lock, also called Kongming lock. I think this dessert is hidden inside the lock."
"Really?"
Yan Yu put down the plate and started flipping over the Luban Lock, sweating profusely but unable to open it at all.
Wang Wanzhi smiled and said, "Bring it."
Yan Yu asked: "Miss, can you open it?"
Wang Wanzhi smiled lightly: "I have forgotten what I am best at. How can a Lu Bansuo defeat me?"
Wang Wanzhi is an expert in construction, and she is very proficient in this kind of mortise and tenon structure.
Take the Luban Lock of the Thirty-six Sons in your hand and unlock it according to the methods you know.
The thirty-six-zi joint formula is many times more complicated than the common six-zizi joint formula. As Wang Wanzhi's fingers move quickly, the Luban lock in his hand keeps changing its shape.
Yan Yu was dazzled by what she saw, feeling as if the young lady was doing embroidery. Even if she was told such a complicated process clearly, she would not be able to remember it.
Wang Wanzhi suddenly made a sound and stopped.
Yan Yu asked curiously: "Miss, have you solved it?"
Wang Wanzhi responded: "No,"
Yan Yu was surprised: "Is it difficult? Even the young lady can't solve it."
Wang Wanzhi said: "No, this Luban Lock still has a lock and needs a key." He pointed to a small hole exposed after the Luban Lock changed its shape.
Yan said in a loud voice: "I'll go find him and ask for the key."
Wang Wanzhi stopped Yan Yu: "Yan Yu, don't ask him for the key. I made the key myself. It's boring to have the key."
Yan Yu looked at the young lady's interested expression and wondered in her mind whether Fu Xie deliberately withheld the key.
It should be like this, he has so many tricks.
Oh, it's so good to see the young lady looking so excited, much better than looking depressed and lifeless.
Wang Wanzhi studied the keyhole with all her concentration, and said, "Yan Yu, go get some bamboo and a knife."
As night fell, the room was lit with lights. Wang Wanzhi was studying under the lamp, while skillfully carving the tooth-shaped keys.
She has made seven or eight keys in a row, but none of them can open the Luban lock. The keys must match perfectly, but even if there is a slight difference, it will not open.
It was late at night, and Yan Yu yawned: "Miss, why don't you go to bed first and do it tomorrow."
"You go to sleep first."
Yan Yu said: "How about smashing it open with the hammer."
Wang Wanzhi glared at Yan Yu: "What's the point?"
Wang Wanzhi is immersed in this never-ending exploration and enjoys it.
Yan Yu was so sleepy that she slowly fell asleep on the table.
In the dead of night, only the flickering lights remain, and it is unclear how time has passed.
Wang Wanzhi suddenly screamed in pain, which immediately woke Yan Yu up. The young lady had a painful expression on her face, and sweat suddenly broke out on her forehead.
"Yan Yu, I'm cold."
Yan Yu knew that the young lady was ill, so she hurriedly helped Wang Wanzhi to the warm jade bed and lit the two stoves beside the bed.
The red fire immediately made the room as hot as June, but Wang Wanzhi was still shivering from the cold, but the situation was much better than before.
At this moment, Yan Yu's warm clothes were covered with sweat, and she asked with concern: "Miss, are you feeling warmer?"
"Well, Yan Yu, bring me the Luban lock, knife and bamboo."
Yan Yu said helplessly: "Miss, why are you like a playful child who knows no restraint?"
Wang Wanzhi smiled sweetly: "Isn't this great?"
Yan Yu was stunned for a moment and responded quickly: "Okay, okay, I'm just worried about your health."
"It doesn't matter."
With concentration, Wang Wanzhi completely forgot about the cold pain. The human spirit is far higher than the physical body.
It took Wang Wanzhi a whole night to make an accurate key and unlock the Luban lock.
He smiled excitedly like a child: "It's solved!"
This sound woke Yan Yu up from his sleep, and he saw that the Luban Suo had turned into small pieces of wood.
This feeling of finally achieving the goal after going through all kinds of hardships made Yan Yu excited: "Where are the snacks?"
Wang Wanzhi held a small piece of paper rolled into a ball in her hand, and said in a show-off manner: "Here it is."
Yan Yu looked confused.
Wang Wanzhi opened the note, took a look at it, and said with a smile: "You treat me like a child."
