Qing He has been busy drawing up a menu with Chen Lao recently, and because he has no experience, he is busy making suggestions. The Fu family is a person with a head and a face, and the wedding banquet cannot be too shabby and simple, nor can it be overcome. She submitted the menu of forty-eight hot dishes and eighteen cold dishes along with the required materials, and waited for the day to come.

Erbai's strong protest that day caused her doubts, but she attributed it to Erbai's reluctance to leave her. After all, since Erbai woke up, the two have rarely been separated, and they are almost inseparable.

On the day of the wedding of Fu Yuanqing, the eldest son of the Fu family, the genius was bright, and Qinghe went out, and the two people in the family settled down last night, especially Erbai, who lost his temper, and coaxed him for a long time to be a little happier.

When she arrived at Fu's house, there were lights at the door, and the servants inside were already busy, boiling pots and water in the backyard, washing vegetables and leg hair, Qinghe first counted her helpers, after all, it was impossible for her to be a woman who could handle all the dishes.

"The people who are helping in the kitchen are lined up today, the woman is on the left, the man is on the right, and I will rely on you to help." Qinghe bowed after speaking, and everyone said that it was what they should do.

And when the sky is completely bright, the whole backyard is filled with the aroma.

Qinghe opened the cauldron, put the old soup of wolfberry mushroom hanging in it, with the opening of the lid, a rich white steam rushed out, split the head and cover the face to wrap the person, the soup in the pot gurgled and boiled, the brown herbs rolled in it, sucking away the greasy duck meat, Qinghe turned around and wanted the spoon to taste the taste, but his hand touched a person.

She could only see a vague outline, only up to her shoulders, the fabric was soft and smooth to the touch, and the corners were finely embroidered, which looked like it was worth a little.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you? Fu Yuanxin hurriedly retracted the one that was about to touch the table, pretending to be calm, and his hands were behind his back, but in fact, his face was full of displeasure, and he was about to reach the table to eat.

So he shifted his unhappiness.

"Well, I'm a new cook, are you?"

"It's my eldest brother who is getting married today."

Qing He reached the spoon and took a mouthful of the soup, because it had only been stewed for an hour and a half, so the taste was not strong enough, she smashed her mouth while watching the little boy circle around the table, not knowing what he was going to do.

"So?"

"I'll check to see if you're lazy."

"Are you satisfied with the results?"

Qinghe is a little funny, this child who pretends to be a serious old man, her eyes light up when she sees the crab on the table, she still doesn't know what she wants? So it was a bit of a narrow joke. Fu Yuanxin didn't look at Qing He at first, he turned his eyes and peeked at it a little weakly, but he met Qing He's smiling face and quickly turned around, but the ears exposed outside his hair were red.

"Still, it's done." As he spoke, he was about to slip away, but was stopped by someone.

"Little boy, you pulled down your things."

Fu Yuanxin stopped, and touched the corner of his clothes suspiciously, as if he hadn't lost anything?

Turning his head, he saw that Qing He was holding a big crab in his hand and handed it in his direction, with a smile on his face.

"Oh, you've lost a crab." Fu Yuanxin took the crab, and when he heard the whisper in his ear, his face was embarrassed, but his eyes fluttered around with a loud voice, and he didn't dare to look at people, "What you said, I didn't take anything." ”

"Yes, little boy, you didn't take anything, you just lost something, and I'll help you pick it up."

After Fu Yuanxin got the guarantee, he hid the crab in his wide sleeves, glanced around and found that no one was paying attention, and ran away without looking back, but in his heart he had a good impression of this good-looking woman.

He had thought that he would wait until he had finished eating and then come to her to deliver something. But as soon as he went back, he was dragged back by the maid to change clothes, teach the rules, and then rushed to the newlyweds' hall non-stop, and then went to the table to eat. The feast was delicious, and the people at the ten tables were satisfied, especially Fu Yuanxin, who was pulling the crab in his hand, tilting his head while chewing the crab claws and thinking:

Is this really all done by that woman? It's so delicious, why haven't I seen it before? It's great to ask my father for a private kitchen for himself! That's it!

So he waited and waited with great anticipation, and was ready to go to the backyard to find someone to pull him to his father.

The middle-aged man with an elegant face nodded very satisfied, stroked his beard and waved his hand, and the maid standing behind him came to Qinghe with the plate in his hand, the middle-aged man was Fu Dongqing, the head of the Fu family.

"Sure enough, the person recommended by Chen Lao is not bad, at first I was a little worried that the little girl was young and not good enough, but now it seems that it is really better than the blue, these things Today's Xie Jin, talk about your heart, I hope the girl will not be suspicious."

Qing He took it, felt a little heavy, lifted the corner of the covered cloth, was taken aback, and hurriedly shook his head and handed it back, "Master Fu, how dare you accept so much?" "It turned out that the tray full of small ingots and silver was full of silver, and it was estimated that there must be dozens of taels.

Fu Dongqing took a few steps forward, and pressed Qinghe's movements with his hand through his clothes, exerting force in the cotton.

"The little girl doesn't have to be too humble, this is what you have changed, the next time the little girl gets married, I hope to invite you to come to the kitchen again, even if there is a higher price than mine, I also hope that you will come to me, speaking of which, I still have you cheap."

Qing He felt a thrust, understood the meaning of this Master Fu in his heart, and secretly thought that this person was so powerful, and he bought people's hearts in a few words, and he deserved to be mixed up by officialdom. I can't help but think of my father, who is also a person in the officialdom, one of whom finally returned to his hometown after a prosperous life, without worrying about food and clothing, and the other who was humiliated and returned to the ground in his prime, turned into a handful of loess. But as soon as she thought that this was someone else's big day, she was afraid that it would spoil people's good mood, so she took it with a smile on her face and made a courtesy.

"I wish the eldest prince a hundred years of happiness and an early birth of a noble son."

"Borrow the girl's good words." He put his hands behind his back and commanded the little guy waiting next to him very majestically, "Agui, send Miss Xu out." ”

Ah Gui had just sent the person out of the door, and before he could step into the house, a huge force hit him, and he fell to the ground, his face was knocked hard, and he only felt that his nose was sore and unspeakable.

"Which damn killer of a thousand knives doesn't have long eyes......"

After only halfway through the words, he fell silent after seeing the person in front of him clearly, covering his mouth tightly, for fear of revealing a voice, and bowed his head to apologize while crawling, but unfortunately his feet slipped and fell again.

"Hahaha, Agui, you're useless, and you can't see clearly in a few steps."

Fu Yuanxin didn't take the matter to heart, smiled heartily, pointed to the inside of the house and asked, "Is my father inside?" Seeing Agui nodding, he lifted the corner of his clothes and walked inside.

"What's the flustered about?" Fu Dongqing turned around and walked out from behind, holding a teacup in his hand.

Fu Yuanxin was a little timid when he heard his father's deep and majestic tone, his eyes kept looking at the tables and chairs on the ground, and he spoke, "I, I want someone." ”

Fu Dongqing's eyes were raised, and he looked surprised.

His youngest son is only eleven years old today, who can come to him?

"Men and women? Which house is it? How old? ”

Hearing his father's detailed questioning, he always regretted a little when his feet were soft, and then thought about the table of good dishes he ate today, and plucked up the courage to speak, "Woman, probably at the age of the peony in my house, I don't know which house, I saw it in the backyard today." ”

Peony is Fu Yuanxin's maid, nineteen years old, and she is the eldest maid in his house.

Fu Yuanxin raised his eyes and quietly glanced at his father, and added, "When I saw her in the backyard, she was cooking." ”

After listening to Fu Dongqing, she felt a little bottom in her heart, and she also had some ideas.

This little girl recommended by Chen Lao is not very old, her manners are decent, and she is quite a bit of a family, and according to Chen Lao's eagerly recommended appearance at the beginning, the relationship between the two is not ordinary. If he can let the other party come to Fu Mansion to do things, and he can also reconcile with Chen Lao, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? When Chen Lao came to Kaiyang City, he stammered in many ways, but he didn't answer, the end was smooth and tight, and now there were more seams, and it would be a pity not to make good use of it.

"Well, my father knows, you study hard, and I'll help you find it when the time comes."

So Fu Yuanxin cheered and jumped out of the door.

When Qinghe arrived home, he also brought a lot of gifts back, including books that Qingyang liked, as well as Erbai's favorite wine, roast chicken wrapped in oil paper, and a few pieces of osmanthus cake from Lan Kwai Fong.

Qingyang immediately pounced when he saw it, blushing excitedly while holding the book, hugging and rubbing Qinghe's arm, his eyes were shining, "Sister, you are really amazing!" I've liked this book for a long time, but it's a bit expensive! ”

Qinghe nodded the tip of his brother's nose and smiled dotingly, "Today, the master of the Fu family is generous and gives a lot of money, I passed by the bookstore and brought you a set, Erbai has your daughter red that you like to drink, do you want to drink?" ”

Erbai was still angry because Qing He refused to listen to her last night, so he turned his head awkwardly in another direction, refused to pay attention, and showed a black back of his head to Qing He.

Qinghe was not annoyed, lifted the red stopper, sniffed deeply, and sighed loudly, "Oh, wine, wine, it's a pity that I bought you, and people don't like it, so I had to give you away, I heard that the daughter of the second aunt's family gave birth to a big fat boy, so I will give her as a congratulatory blessing." When the smell of wine filled the house, Qinghe covered it regretfully, and before he could send it out of the house, Erbai stood up, rushed to Qinghe, and shouted loudly.

"Mine!"

Then he hid behind him, refusing to take it.

Her eyes widened, and she puffed out her face and said unhappily, "Qingqing, what you bought for me is mine, why give it away?" ”

"Yo, didn't someone just refuse to ask for it?" Qing He stretched out his hand and poked Erbai's bulging cheek, and the other party flattened it like a flattened bun, and glanced at Qing He very aggrieved, who was more of a little daughter-in-law than the angry little daughter-in-law.

So Qinghe couldn't help but laugh out loud, squinted his eyes and glanced at Erbai, and secretly proud: Just like you, are you still fighting with me? Hum!

Erbai just received the other party's white eyes, and only felt that Qingqing's face was really white and her eyes were beautiful, and her heart was fluttering and picking up a look, oh, it would be nice if Qingqing listened to her.

So he took the wine jar, found a few bowls and began to pour the wine.

The aged daughter is very fragrant, and the smell of wine is permeated in the house, and even Qingyang, who doesn't like to drink, can't help but move his nose, looking covetous, wanting to have enough for a bowl of wine, but was slapped off by Erbai.

Smack-

Hearing only a crisp sound, Qingyang shrank in pain, and when he saw that the back of his hand was red, he asked angrily, "What are you doing?" ”

The second white eye did not raise his eyes, and poured wine to himself, "What kind of wine does the little kid drink?" You ask Qingqing if she is willing. One sentence hit the point, Qingyang immediately made a bitter face, and was secretly unhappy in his heart.

I don't know when it started, that fool Erbai became smart, his strength and body couldn't compare, and now he was not even as good as her verbal skills. Qingyang began to miss the stupid, naïve, and very bullying Erbai at the beginning.

Erbai didn't know what Qingyang was thinking, so he picked up Qinghe's torn chicken leg and handed it to Qinghe's mouth, "Ah" to make Qinghe open his mouth and feed her.

"Qingqing, the chicken thighs are big, tender and thick, you eat quickly, I'm tired today." Although I was very dissatisfied with Qinghe going out, I was still very distressed when I looked at the faint tiredness on her face.

When his hand was injured some time ago, Erbai was reluctant to do things for Qinghe, and rushed to do everything, but his hand was just right, and he was tired like this...... So I hate that old man and the person with the surname Fu even more!

"Come on, come on, Qingqing, sit down, I'll pinch your shoulders, keep you comfortable, and think about next time if you have this time." I don't know where I learned the oily and slippery tone, Erbai half-dragged Qinghe to the chair close to her and began to rub it. She has good kung fu in her hands, has enough strength, and is inexplicably familiar with the acupoints of the human body in her heart, so she automatically presses on the acupoints, whether light or heavy, Qinghe only feels that half of the soreness in her body seems to be gone today, and she sighs comfortably.

Qingyang, who was gnawing on the oil chicken on the side, looked here curiously, and wondered, is it so comfortable to pinch his shoulders? I'll find someone to try it next time.

But after thinking about it, I didn't seem to have any classmates and friends who had a particularly good relationship, and I was a little congested, so I lowered my head and tried to nibble on chickens.

The two of them drank and got drunk at night, Erbai still had the reason to take off their own clothes, and they fell asleep at the end, and when they got up in the morning, Qinghe only felt a splitting headache.

"Alas, I knew I shouldn't have drunk so much, it hurt to death." Qing He rubbed his head, he was very disgusted with the smell of alcohol, and opened the window after putting on his shoes, and the cold air of the early morning swept in, and the smell of wine in the room was almost dispersed after a while.

Erbai, who was lying on the pillow next to him and refused to get up, lazily peeked at Qinghe getting dressed with his eyes half-closed, only to feel that his Qingqing was really beautiful everywhere, with beautiful eyes, beautiful nose and mouth, and even the movements of putting on clothes were beautiful and picturesque, looking back and smiling, even the scars on her face became flowers, and when she saw the beauty turn around, she trembled, and immediately rolled into the quilt.

Qing He looked at the person who only showed his forehead and hair on the bed, and couldn't help laughing.

"The sun is all on your ass, and you still can't get up? You won't be allowed to pour me any more wine in the future!" "When I think of last night, I was so angry and funny, I drank almost half of the jar of wine Qinghe, and her amount of wine was very poor, basically I was drunk and unconscious after drinking two bowls, and I was poured all the time.

The man inside the quilt squirmed and made a muffled sound in agreement.

————————

It was already late when I drank porridge in the morning, and it was really noon on the third pole of the day. I was thinking about going to the market to buy something and come back today, preparing to reopen her family's small noodle restaurant, when there was a knock on the door of Qinghe's house.

"Who? Erbai, you go and open a door by the way. ”

After eating, Erbai, who washed his hands, wiped his hands and opened the door, and saw a strange person standing there, his hand still raised, obviously intending to knock again. This is a man of seventeen or eighteen, wearing a house-ding hat on his head and a gray-black thick cloth dress, and when he sees someone coming to open the door, he automatically smiles on his face.

"May I ask if this is the Xu family?"

Erbai's heart was vigilant and squinted, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

The little girl was overjoyed, and when she saw that she was not looking for the wrong place, she hurriedly responded, "My lord asked me to bring something to Miss Xu, I don't know if I can go in?" ”

Erbai looked behind him and found that Qing He nodded before reluctantly pulling the door open, only to find that after the other party stepped in, there was a little boy who was a head shorter than him behind him.

"Hey, who are you?" Erbai's tone was not good, someone came to disturb her early in the morning, she was annoying.

The little boy blinked, pushed Erbai away, and asked, "Then who are you?" ”

"What about you, let me ask you!"

"Then why should I answer you?" After the little boy, Fu Yuanxin, came in, his eyes rolled, and he looked at this house that was completely different from his family, very curious. When he approached the small hall, his eyes lit up when he saw Qing He, and he took a big step in.

The weather is good today, the sun is very bright, shining warmly, so the curtain is opened, Fu Yuanxin moved his nose as soon as he came in, smelled a little tempting taste, and digested the breakfast after eating it for a long time, so his stomach began to gurgle, making him pull the corners of his clothes in embarrassment.

"What, hungry? Let's have a bowl of porridge. Qinghe stood up and scooped a bowl of salty porridge and handed it to Fu Yuanxin.

This is the glutinous rice porridge she boiled over a low fire with lean minced pork mixed with soy sauce, sugar and eggs, which has a salty and attractive taste, soft and glutinous and warm stomach.

Fu Yuanxin swallowed his saliva, forgot all the etiquette and manners taught by the master in his mind, and drank a bowl in three or two gulps, and continued to stare at Qinghe with eager eyes.

Refilled a bowl of Fu Yuanxin before he began to eat slowly, feeling the sight of the other side, and raised his head, it turned out that Qingyang was staring at him curiously.

You must know that in this family, no one has ever been here for a child of Qingyang's age. Qingyang is sensible early, so he doesn't like to play with children, he always feels that it is better to help his sister if he has this time, so Fu Yuanxin's arrival makes him feel very novel.

"Hey, whose family are you? Who are you looking for at my house? ”

Qinghe rubbed his younger brother's head and looked at Fu Yuanxin, "This is the little son of the Fu family, one year older than you, call him brother." ”

When Qingyang heard that he was going to call his brother, it was so awkward that he couldn't call it, and he just couldn't call it. Fu Yuanxin took a look at it and gave the other party a step down, "My surname is Fu Yuanxin, it's good if you call me by my name, it's only two months before I'm eleven, what is your name, little brother, how old are you this year?" ”

"You call me Qingyang, I'm ten years old and almost eleven."

Qinghe smiled after hearing this, and did not debunk it. A child who has just turned ten years old, where is it almost eleven?

"Okay, you are the child of the Fu family, you still dare to come to my house?"

Fu Yuanxin was taken aback and almost fell off the chair, but fortunately Qinghe held on, she glared at Erbai, who closed the door and rushed into the house angrily, the latter ignored it, and vented all the grievances of the previous two days to him, "If you have something to say, leave quickly." ”

Fu Yuanxin's mouth flattened, and he knocked Erbai with a little disdain, "I'm not here to find you, I'm here to find this sister." Then he held Qinghe's arm to demonstrate, and as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that his foot was touched, he took a look, and found that Qingyang secretly gave him a thumbs up gesture, but his face pretended to be expressionless and did not speak.

"Sister, I want you to come to my house and cook for me, okay?"

"Not good!" Erbai answered first, and only after finishing speaking did he peek at the party's reaction, and saw that she was not unhappy, so he became upright, and said "not good" again.

"Why did you come to my house? Does Master Fu know? ”

"I told my father, but I didn't tell him I was running out. The dish you cooked yesterday was so delicious, well, thank you, I want you to cook for me. "Fu Yuanxin said two things, one thing was yesterday's banquet, and one thing was the Qinghe crab thing, which saved face for the little boy and would not be ashamed.

Of course, he inquired last night, there is no Qinghe in the house, but the cook invited outside, if you want to continue to eat Qinghe's food, you must invite the other party, he is greedy and idle, so he sneaked out.

"How to say it," Qing He was a little entangled, looking at the other party's clear and eager eyes, she couldn't refuse, and at the same time felt Erbai's fiery eyes on the other side, staring at her and trying to make her refuse, "I can't go." Little boy, I opened a small shop, I don't have time, but you are welcome to come and play. ”

Fu Yuanxin's eyes dimmed, he couldn't drink the porridge anymore, the bowl was on the table, and he rushed out of the house directly, and the little guy behind him also quickly caught up, and he turned around and apologized on the way.

"There is something at home, I hope the girl will forgive me."

It wasn't until the door was slammed shut by Er Bai that she muttered, "These two people are too rude", Qinghe couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, who is more rude than whom.

Qingyang couldn't stop complaining about Erbai, because he drove away his friends in the united front, and he thought he could have one more playmate.

originally thought it was just an episode, but who knew that it turned into an uproar and changed their peaceful lives.

——————————

"Please, girl, come with us." A man who looked like a housekeeper pleaded and made a few gestures to Qing He, Qing He couldn't stand it and moved sideways, but his tightly frowning brows did not let go.

Erbai stood aside and thought, why did these strangers frown as soon as they came to Qingqing? Or don't open the door at all.

"Since the little boy returned home, he hasn't eaten all day, saying that he has no appetite, and the whole person is too thin." The old housekeeper was very distressed, and when he thought that the originally white and smooth little boy had a sharp chin for a few days, he hurriedly ran over and begged Qinghe to cook for him.

"What happened?"

"After the little boy went back, he yelled all day long to eat crabs, and we bought buckets and buckets of crabs, but he just couldn't eat two bites, and he didn't know what the problem was, anyway, he just wanted to eat, and I couldn't help it. I heard the little guy next to the little boy say that he came to you that day and wanted you to cook him a few meals to eat, so I moved my mind to disturb the girl. ”

The old housekeeper sighed while saying a few words, Qing He understood everything when he heard it, and suddenly felt that he was not doing evil, making a good cute little boy like this, and then remembered what Chen Lao said, "There will be more and more troubles in the future", "Money and tranquility are like fish and bear's paws", and he smiled bitterly a few times and planned to follow him back, and solve the troublesome little boy first, otherwise her small noodle restaurant would not be able to open.

Fortunately, these days are still just sorting things and buying ingredients, if it is really opened, it will be closed again in two days, which should be very depressing.

So Qing He could only follow the old housekeeper to Fu Mansion in Erbai's protests, and Qing He spent a whole day making crab roe buns, crab noodles, steamed crabs, spicy crabs and other whole crab feasts with those crabs, so that the little boy who was weak and had no appetite was ecstatic to get up from the bed and help him to eat. While eating, he looked at Qinghe, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that he was too powerful, and he recognized a good cook from the crowd at a glance.

So the little girls only felt that Qinghe was a great benefactor who saved her life, and they were grateful one by one, and they served tea and water to her, which made Qinghe simply flattered.

But Qinghe didn't expect it, he just came to help cook a meal, just thought it was a meal! But who knew that he was entangled in a small tail, and he couldn't shake it off, and then someone at home knocked over the vinegar jar, and things inside and out were a mess.

"Qingyang, is your sister here?" Fu Yuanxin, who calmly walked into the door, asked in a loud voice, a face poked out of the window, Qingyang shook his head, "Sister went out to buy something, Yuanxin, you are here again?" My sister didn't have anything to eat today. ”

Fu Yuanxin waved his hand familiarly, "Qingyang, you read your book, I'll see for myself." ”

So as a routine, Fu Yuanxin walked to the kitchen.
