Chapter 6 Gourmet Meeting

The dishes were not bought, Wang Bo was anxious, and he couldn't bear to blame Yuexi, so he comforted her and went to the street to buy it in person. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yuexi poured a cup of tea and sent it to Leng Chen, "Thank you so much today, I didn't expect you to be so good at martial arts as a doctor." ”

Leng Chen smiled faintly, "With a gesture, Miss Yuexi doesn't have to be so polite." ”

"It's a gesture for Mr. Leng, but it's a great help to me."

"Why did that person arrest you?"

Yuexi confessed honestly, "Actually, he was sent by my stepfather to take me back, not a bad person." ”

"And what you just said?"

"I didn't mean to deceive you."

Leng Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"I didn't mean to take advantage of you." Yuexi said, the joy in her heart was swept away, "My father-in-law forced me to marry someone I didn't like, so I ran out, I'm sorry." ”

Leng Chen looked at the green bamboo on the screen and said lightly, "I'm not angry. ”

The tea is cool, and the entrance is a little bitter.

"You're from the Stygian Flame Palace?"

Yuexi nodded.

"When I was six years old, my father and I went into the city to sell mountain goods, and when we came back, we met mountain bandits, they killed my father, if my father-in-law hadn't appeared in time to save me, I'm afraid I would have been killed by them like my father."

Leng Chen raised his eyes, and he couldn't imagine that there was such a deep pain hidden under her sun-like smile.

"However, although my father-in-law is strict, he takes me very well, especially Brother Jian Xin, who is even more kind to me and has nothing to say, so I am not alone." Yuexi's eyes were bent into crescents, and there was a moving smile on her face.

"You haven't thought about avenging your father?"

"Of course, I will avenge my father, but I will not be blinded by hatred, and I think, if my father knows it, he doesn't want me to live in hatred."

Know in the sky? Leng Chen's eyes darkened in color, and his expression was stern.

"Leng Gongzi?"

"I've got something to do." Leng Chen's expression instantly returned to normal, "Farewell." ”

******

Dinner was served in Bai Fu.

Liu Wu sneered at Bai Li before the meal as usual, and only moved the chopsticks after saying that he was worthless and useless, and returned to the room after eating.

Although Liu Wu was cold to Bai Li with a gun and a stick, he was very kind to the other people in Bai Mansion, except for accidentally breaking some priceless calligraphy and paintings and some rare treasures for them to clean up. ,

Yuexi once asked her curiously, since she hated Bai Li so much, why was she so kind to the people in his house, Liu Xu said, the person who is sorry for herself is Bai Li, what does it have to do with others?

Since then, Yuexi has known that Liu Wu is actually a good girl, not as pungent and savage as she seems on the surface.

Faced with a table of good dishes alone, Yuexi ate with relish.

Hearing what happened to Yuexi from Uncle Wang, Bai Li hurried back, and when he arrived at the dining room, he saw the fragrance she was eating, and smiled with relief, but he was too careful.

"You're back, haven't you had dinner?"

"Not yet." Bai Li sat down on the stool, and the maid next to him helped him prepare the dishes and chopsticks.

"Today's red stewed mutton is very good, if you don't eat it again, I will eat it all."

A faint smile spread on Bai Li's face, he used to always eat by himself, so no matter how delicious the meal was, he couldn't arouse his appetite, and he even took snacks to deal with things when he was busy, but now he suddenly began to look forward to it.

"Why don't you eat it?" Yuexi saw him holding the chopsticks motionless, "Don't like it?" ”

"Nope." Bai Li smiled indifferently.

Yuexi put a piece of mutton in his bowl, "Believe me, I've eaten mutton so many times, this one is really delicious." ”

Eating seemed to be Yuexi's happiest thing, and Bai Li really wanted to ask her if there was anything she didn't like to eat in the world.

"That's right." Yuexi put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Uncle Wang will pay me a salary today, and I will pay you twelve yuan first." ”

"I heard Uncle Wang say that you met a very strange person on the street today?"

"He recognized the wrong person, so he had to take me back, but fortunately, Mr. Leng saved me." Yuexi concealed the matter, but she still didn't tell Brother Bai about it, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that her father-in-law would not be angry with him in the future.

"Leng Gongzi?" Bai Li frowned, did she know anyone else here?

"Leng Gongzi is a frequent visitor to Yingxiang Building."

Bai Li's brows furrowed even deeper, as the owner of Yingxiang Building, he knew most of the frequent customers of the inn, but this cold boy had never heard of it.

Yuexi's left index finger tapped twice on the table.

Bai Li was puzzled.

"I pay back your money, you haven't put it away yet."

Seeing that she was solemn, Bai Li had no choice but to put it away with a smile, "I wrote it down." ”

Twelve yuan a month, but she doesn't know that the red stewed mutton she eats now is enough for her salary for more than two months.

"Yuexi loves food, and must have studied dishes very well."

"I didn't dare to do research, but I just ate a few rare dishes." Brother Jian Xin knew that he liked to eat, so every time he went out, he would bring back local special dishes for himself to eat, and occasionally invite the chef to the Stygian Flame Palace to cook for himself.

"A month later, it will be Qingquan's food party, and Yingxianglou will ask Yuexi."

"Gourmet meeting? Isn't there a lot of good food? ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Bai Li's mouth, "Every year Qingquan will hold a food party, when the time comes, each restaurant will come up with a dish to participate in the competition, which will be judged by the local people, and the winner's business for a year can be imagined." ”

"In this way, isn't the result of the competition directly related to Yingxianglou's business."

Bai Li nodded with a smile, "Yingxianglou has won the championship for two consecutive years. ”

"I, forget it." Yuexi directly excused herself, if she messed up, wouldn't it hurt Brother Bai, "It's okay to let me eat, just cook." ”

"You just have to say what you think, and everyone will express their thoughts and brainstorm for the sake of the inn's business."

"Okay then."

Brother Bai took him in and provided himself with food and shelter, now is a good time to repay him, at night, Yuexi lay on the bed thinking about the food party, and fell asleep at dawn.

Early in the morning, I yawned and went to Yingxiang Building.

A dirty little girl squatted at the door, with yellow muscles and thin muscles behind her unkempt head, and her eyes were looking in.

"Are you looking for food?" Yuexi crouched down next to her.

The little girl looked at her warily.

"Are you hungry?"

The little girl nodded hesitantly.

The taste of starvation is the most unbearable, and whenever she sees someone starving, Yuexi always can't help but help. She went in and took two steamed buns to the little girl, "Eat." ”

The little girl refused to ask for it at first, and after making sure that Yuexi didn't lie to her, she quickly snatched the steamed bun over, ate it all in three or two, and then looked at Yuexi pitifully with a pair of big eyes, obviously not full.

Yuexi smiled, she didn't expect this little girl to be the same as herself, she could eat so much, she went in and took two more for her, and poured a cup of tea.

The little girl finally had her fill and said, "Thank you, sister." ”

Yuexi touched her immature little face, "If you're hungry in the future, you'll come here to find your sister, you know?" ”

The little girl nodded.

Uncle Wang wrote the vegetables to buy, Yuexi went out with the basket, and found that the little girl didn't leave, "You didn't leave?" ”

The little girl shook her head.

Yuexi helped her sort out her messy hair, "What about your parents?" Why are you alone? ”

"They're all dead."

It turned out that there was nowhere to go.

This child is six or seven years old, if she is left alone like this, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive in the future.

"Come with me." Yuexi couldn't bear to leave her alone, the big deal was to eat less in the future, and give the rest to her, Brother Bai was kind, he shouldn't die without help.

"What's your name?"

"Feng'er."
