I glanced at the ingots, and there was an inquiring intent in my eyes.

Yuan Bao scratched his head and thought about it before he said: "Lin Gongzi, the few people in charge of purchasing in the mansion, they often walk around the city and deal with all kinds of people. “

Yuan Bao glanced at me and continued to explain to me: "In terms of familiarity with Suzhou City, they are actually the most powerful. “

"There aren't many opportunities for the people in the house to go out, so they must not be as good as them."

He is telling the truth.

Yuan Bao paused, looked at me and said, "By the way, Childe, do you know that some of the ingredients in our Yuwen family's big kitchen are sent by several restaurants in the city." "Oh," I said, looking at the ingot, my eyes moving.

How many restaurants are there in the city?

I thought about it carefully and understood the reason, do I need to ask?

It's like handing over the work to someone else to do, and the restaurant is taking on the first few tasks of checking and selecting.

It is not only to help the subordinates save trouble, but also to divide part of the workload, but also to ensure the quality of the ingredients.

It is a typical example of spending more money and saving effort.

When I was in Qingyin Pavilion, I may have heard Yuan Bao or Adele mention it, but I didn't pay much attention to it, and I heard it.

Since I moved in, there was a lot of information to digest, and there were some oversights for a while.

But about the water transport, I was particularly impressed!

The degree of food and clothing of the Yuwen family can be seen from this. "Those people Adele is more familiar, and when I see my sister later, I will mention it to her." Yuan Bao comforted me calmly, "There will be news soon, Lin Gongzi." You can rest assured. “

Yuan Bao grinned embarrassedly and said, "Childe, we people in the government are not the masters, so we still have to ask the third young master to come and ask in person." ”

His expression was very uncomfortable, as if he was thinking carefully, and hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Even if Yuan Bao doesn't mention it, I know the reason with him.

Dealing with the government, unless there is a person with a head and a face. Otherwise, where did the channel come from, and there is no position to ask others to inquire for him, how can he be!

"Just ask people in the east of the city. Regarding this matter, the small one can still help a little. ”

Yuanbao's tone sounded quite confident when he spoke to me, and he belonged to the confidence of dabbling in his own control.

"Hmm," I nodded. Yuanbao thinks the same way as me.

Because when we went out in the morning, we came out in a big car. Everyone knows our whereabouts, so there's no need to hide them when we go back this time.

We got out of the car and went straight through the gate.

The courtyard of the Yuwen family in the east of the city is still quite quiet, especially when a few of us walk in.

I wandered around the courtyard and noticed that it seemed to be a little more deserted than what I had seen before I went out.

I'm more sensitive, and it's easy to see if something is wrong, and at the moment I feel like there's something strange in the house.

This feeling lasted until I approached the path leading to Qingyin Pavilion with the ingots, and it was still obvious.

I glanced in a confused direction. That's where the tsundere boy's study is located.

Could it be that while we were leaving, something happened in the house?

Probably not. Otherwise, it is impossible to walk into the house so deserted, and it stands to reason that it should be lively!

Immediately parted ways, and the guard Ah Lai would not follow me and the ingots to Qingyin Pavilion, because he still had to go to the Fu Steward to restore his life.

In the morning, he was responsible for driving me and Yuan Bao out, and returned safely in the evening.

He followed the instructions of the steward before leaving, and did not make any mistakes along the way, even if he completed the task perfectly.

He knew that I knew that as soon as he returned to the house, he would go to report to the Fortune Steward what had happened on the way.

He didn't intend to hide the truth from me.

In the same way, I didn't care, because I was in the teahouse before, and the waiting time was relatively long, and both of them and I were angry.

Not only the guard Ah Lai, but even the ingots had to take the time to report the situation to the tsundere young master.

No matter how big or small, explain everything one by one.

Everyone is under the Yuwen family's house, after all, they are not my subordinates.

I still understand it in good faith, and I think it's for my safety.

After all, when I think about it, I feel a lot more relaxed!

Walking slowly closer, I felt a lot more comfortable when I saw the open yard in front of me, the clear lake, and the curved bridge.

Looking intently, on the other side of the curved bridge, who is the figure waiting for me and Yuanbao is not his sister Adele?

"It seems that we came back too late, Adele is in a hurry," I paused and said, "Seeing that we haven't arrived yet, we went directly to Qingyin Pavilion." ”

I looked back and smiled at the ingots following behind me.

"Yuanbao, what do you think?"

Yuan Bao naturally saw Adeite's figure, and he replied with a smile: "Where will Adei's temperament be in a hurry!" ”

"Childe, you don't know her personality," Yuan Bao blinked and continued, "I guess she should bring some food for Childe, or if she has something to tell you." ”

I glanced at Yuanbao and said in a surprised tone: "Wait a while and ask her to see if you guess right or me." ”

As soon as the words fell, I quickened my pace and walked to the other end of the curved bridge.

Adele saw me coming and reached out and picked up a food box from the stone bench next to her.

As soon as I saw the food box, I admitted defeat, after all, I was guessed correctly by Yuanbao, and the brother and sister were more tacit!

Adele looked at me, her eyes fixed on my face, lowered her eyelashes and said, "Young Master Lin, you're back!" ”

"Ade, we're coming back late, have you been waiting for a long time?"

I said apologetically in my tone, "I'm sorry that time flies unconsciously when I walk around the street." "It's too cold here, why don't you go and wait inside the Qingyin Pavilion?"

Adele looked at me stunned, and quickly shook her head and said, "I just came." I didn't have to wait long. ”

"Young Master Lin, this is for you." Adele held up the food box and raised it in front of me.

"Let's stop talking here, let's go inside."

I'm first. Yuan Bao and Adai followed to the Qingyin Pavilion.

The charcoal brazier in the house was lit, and it was warm after a while.

I opened the food box brought by Adele on the table in the room, and when I saw the small snacks inside, I couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a coincidence, we all tasted this in the teahouse just now." ”

"Ahh Yuan Bao suddenly leaned over in surprise, saw the dim sum clearly, and immediately smiled. "Sister, it's really a coincidence, I ate this when I went out with my son."

"Adele. You haven't only been to the teahouse once, how did you think of making this dim sum? ”

I looked at Adele and asked her in a softened tone.

"I didn't eat this in the teahouse, but when I went back to the west of the city. I saw an old woman setting up a stall to sell snacks in the shape of rabbits. “

The corners of Ade's mouth raised and said to me seriously: "I just thought about it today." Try to do it. ”

"The slave maid thought, Childe might like this."

Adele hesitated for a moment before answering me.

"Ade," Yuan Bao glanced at her in surprise and frowned, "This, Childe probably doesn't like it." ”

"Who said that Childe rejoiced!"

I deliberately quipped: "I know that the dim sum chef in the teahouse must not be as delicious as Ade's." I'm sure. ”

"You haven't tasted it, that's it." Yuan Bao shook his head. "Childe!"

After tasting it, I didn't even have anything to say about the ingots. "You know your sister's personality, but your craft is still underestimated by you."

I stared at Yuanbao, frowned at him, shook my head softly, and said, "You should trust her more." "Adele's craftsmanship is only used in this mansion less than fifty percent!"

I can see that Adele is actually far from playing her strengths, and she doesn't have so many opportunities.

I looked at Adele and said meaningfully: "The third young master of your family didn't see Adeite's potential, it's a pity that she was a cook in Yuwen's house." "With such strength!" Childe," Yuan Bao took over my topic in a panic, and his eyes glanced at the outside of Qingyin Pavilion.

At this time, the guard Alaidu went back to report to the Fu steward, and the courtyard was so quiet that only the wind could be heard, and no one else passed by.

I know Yuanbao's worries, but I also know that this is superfluous. "Yuwenjia is already the best employer here in Suzhou." Adele lowered her head and bit her lip gently.

"If it's outside of Suzhou, Ade?"

I looked at her calmly, and asked with a slight smile, "There is a bigger and broader world outside Suzhou, which is not limited to this small place in Suzhou." ”

"Even if the third young master of your family is from the south of Xilan," I thought for a while, "If you have the opportunity, Ade, you must go to more places to see." ”

"Cooking also needs to learn from others."

I looked at her fixedly: "You can taste different flavors in different places, broaden your horizons, and when you have a new understanding, of course, your cooking skills will go to the next level." ”

"Childe, Childe, have you been to many places?" Adele suddenly raised her head and looked into my eyes and asked.

I nodded and said, "Yes, so I'm sure of your cooking skills, and you know it's not just a perfunctory thing." ”

"I really tasted the food from all over the world before I said this."

In an instant, I saw yearning in Adele's expression! "Ade, did they send all the ingredients?" After the snack, I naturally turn back to the most important topic.

Tonight's supper is about the request I have to make to the tsundere boy.

Even if I think about it now, I still feel awkward in my heart, I really don't want to take such an opportunity to deliberately achieve my goal.

I'm willing to just let him or Adele Ingots try my handiwork.

If you don't like it, you still have to do it, I sighed secretly in my heart. "I brought it a long time ago," Adele said in a crisp tone, "The slave maid asked the familiar food delivery person in the big kitchen to send it to the small kitchen of Qingyin Pavilion to rest. “

Adele took the tea boiled by the ingots, poured a cup for me and handed it over, and replied to me: "There are a few things you said, and the slaves and maids have selected the good ones." ”

She helped me control the quality, just like the ingredients have passed two passes, under such strict standards, I was said by Adele that it must be bad!

"Thank you, Adele."

"Childe, Childe, you are so polite, all slaves should do."

"I'm used to it, it seems that I don't want to say thank you, I can't go away," I smiled helplessly, "No one has to do anything for me, it's not easy to do anything!" ”

With that, I stroked my forehead and looked out the window, my eyes sweeping over the wind-wrinkled lake.

"Childe, you drink tea, this is the high mountain tea that the third young master is used to drinking, and it is the tea produced on the highest peak of Beilang Mountain in our Suzhou area."

Yuan Bao exchanged glances with Ade.

"It's still the Fu steward who sent it over to our Qingyin Pavilion."

Yuan Bao said a little more on the side.

I picked up the tea cup and took a sip, the tea was sweet and delicious.

I know that the water for making tea must have been laboriously transported from the mountains, and it was dedicated to tsundere, so do you need to say it?!

"What do you think it tastes like?" Adele asked me tentatively next to her. "Nothing can be described as good as you can taste it yourself."

I smiled and said to Yuan Bao: "I'm sorry for you to pour a cup of tea for Ade, and yourself." "Childe, I can't help it!" Yuan Bao was taken aback. "Qingyin Pavilion is in charge of it for the time being, I say make it, you don't have to worry."

Ah Dai raised her head and said with emotion: "Sure enough, it's an excellent tea, I heard that our third young master likes to drink this the most." “

It's really a topic that can never be avoided tsundere boy!

I suddenly remembered something important, as if it had been overlooked!

I frowned and looked at Adele and asked, "Don't you have to help him prepare dinner tonight?" "Will you be delayed in Qingyin Pavilion, and you third young master will be blamed when you go back to the big kitchen later?" "Lin Gongzi!" Adei looked at me and said, "The third young master has gone to Beilang Mountain, and he is not in the mansion." "For tonight's meal, I asked the Fu steward, and he said that he didn't need to prepare it for the third young master."

Ah Dai tilted her head and thought about it, and added an explanation: "If the third young master comes back suddenly, the Fu steward will go and ask, and if the third young master wants to eat, the slave will do it immediately!" “

Tsundere is not there? I suddenly came back to my senses, no wonder I felt strange as soon as I returned to the mansion in the east of the city, it turned out that he had gone out.

Beilang Mountain? Beilang Mountain seems to have been mentioned by Adele just now, it is the tea I am drinking, and I heard that it is produced from the highest mountain over there.

"Ade, is that Beilang Mountain, which produces tea?" I asked her after a moment's silence.

"Lin Gongzi, the territory of Beilang Mountain is very large, not only a place where tea is produced."

Adai didn't speak, her brother always knew more about the things outside, and Yuan Bao explained to me on the side at this time.

"Speaking of tea production, there is only a small area over there, and the Yuwen family has a tea garden on the mountain."

Yuan Bao said clearly: "The third young master of our family and the elders of the family all like to drink this kind of tea. "Almost all of the people from the Yuwen family drink it every year or give it to relatives and friends who are familiar with each other."

"Tea is not produced much, and there is no buying and selling in the market!" (To be continued......)
