Chapter 27: The Little Gluttony Appears
Ah Cai's answer did not solve the confusion in Yu Xiaocao's heart, but made her more curious. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Yang Zhiyun, business has really been doing well in the past two years. To say that there are so many bookstores in the capital, there are really few that can compare to the strength of Asakusado. Asakusa is not the leader of the dragon, it is also one of the best. The competition is fierce, and there are many intrigues and deceptions between the industries. Other bookstores are red-eyed, and there are a lot of things that have secretly framed Asakusado. There was a problem with the paper of the previous release of "Golden Vase Plum Illustrated Edition", which was secretly used by another bookstore of equal strength in order to ruin the reputation of Asakusado.
Who knew that Yang Zhiyun was calm and relaxed, and in just a few words, he resolved everyone's anger, and led the entire bookstore to work overtime to get through this turmoil peacefully.
Yu Xiaocao has only stayed in the Asakusa Hall for about ten days, and she is with the bookstore buddies every day, and Ah Cai is the closest, while Yang Zhiyun will only appear in the bookstore in the morning, so she doesn't have much contact with Yang Zhiyun. In her impression, Yang Zhiyun is a knowledgeable and resourceful businessman, very honest and righteous, and he is very good to his subordinates, and he is deeply supported by his subordinates. It's strange that such a person can't take care of the bookstore.
However, Yu Xiaocao didn't understand a little - why did he hide his wife in the bedroom? Moreover, what do they do every day, he is not tired to death, but his wife must be tired half to death.
The point is, there are a lot of rumors about her wife, but Yang Zhiyun doesn't let the guys talk about it. Only when a person has done something bad can he be afraid of others speculating and discussing.
Yu Xiaocao concluded that there must be some secret between Yang Zhiyun and his wife.
Well? Something so fragrant, she smells it these days, and today she can finally go and find out.
At this moment, the bookstore was deserted, and there were only a few old servants in the courtyard sweeping the ground. Yu Xiaocao said hello to them briefly, followed the fragrance, and walked to the kitchen.
As soon as he stepped into the kitchen, a small figure swept past the stove and quickly jumped out of the window. The action is simply lightning fast.
Yu Xiaocao glanced at the stove, a sand boiler was simmering on it, and the rising white gas ran out with the fragrance of "gurgling", almost making Yu Xiaocao's saliva flow to the ground. Strangely, the lid was lifted by someone for nowhere, and there were a few gnawed bones on the countertop.
Did the kid steal it just now? How do you feel like he's familiar?
The doubts were fleeting, the things in the pot were too fragrant, she couldn't help the temptation, leaned over the stove and took a deep breath of the aroma, "It's so fragrant, it shouldn't matter if you taste it." As he spoke, he picked up the spoon on the side and scooped a piece of meat into the stove, and couldn't wait to put it in his mouth.
"Put it down!" An elderly woman saw this scene outside the door, hurried over, and snatched the spoon from Xiaocao's hand, causing the meat that was about to reach her mouth to fall out of the spoon and roll to the foot of the table. She was furious and said: "You girl, why are you so unruly, this is specially stewed for the master, you dare to eat it secretly!" ”
"I didn't mean to... Not what I ate... I just saw a pot of fragrant stuff stewed here, and I couldn't help but ......" Yu Xiaocao couldn't argue.
The woman closed the stove in displeasure and said with a dark face, "It's not you, who else?" I only see you here alone. I said, why have people been stealing things from this pot lately, but I didn't expect it to be you! You girl, next time you do this, I'll tell the master! ”
This woman is not easy to mess with. A few words floated through Yu Xiaocao's mind, and he hurriedly admitted his mistake and quickly left the battlefield full of gunsmoke.
"I almost ate it just now, what a pity for that piece of meat!"
Yu Xiaocao sat in a no-man's corner in the backyard, still thinking about the piece of meat that rolled down to the corner of the table.
"Hee-hee, sister, you're so stupid."
A child's voice suddenly came from the beam overhead, and she looked up in astonishment, and it was actually the naughty ghost of Qin.
He lay on the roof, only showing a small head, and said with a smile on his face: "Sister, you have to thank that person for not letting you eat that piece of meat." ”
What do you mean?
Yu Xiaocao said with a stinky face: "Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, have you also learned to laugh at people?" ”
Qin smiled and said, "Sister, don't be angry. Jean is kind enough to remind you that the meat is not ordinary meat. Jean was very satisfied with her surprised expression, jumped forward, landed in front of her, and continued: "That's pigeon meat, but the pigeon has long been fed the blood of the monster and turned into essence. The people who do this presumably do so that the tonic effect of the pigeons is maximized. If you had eaten it, you would have had a nosebleed by now. ”
Yu Xiaocao seemed to understand: "Who would do such a perverted thing and specialize in eating pigeons?" ”
"What does my sister think? Hereof, Who is most in need of eating this? ”
Yu Xiaocao suddenly realized.
Just now, the woman said that this is stewed for the master, and that is stewed for Yang Zhiyun! What is the origin of this Yang Zhiyun, he likes to eat this thing?
"Boss Yang looks very upright, why did he do this?"
The pigeon, also known as the "white phoenix", is very fertile because of its frequent mating of males and females. Therefore, eating its meat has the effect of tonifying the kidneys and filling the essence, warming the yang and invigorating qi - that is, the effect of aphrodisiac. This Yang Zhiyun worked so hard at night, it is estimated that he has to make up for it.
Qin saw that Yu Xiaocao's brain was really not very good, so she no longer bothered with her about this matter. He smiled and asked, "Sister, can you take me in?" ”
Yu Xiaocao was confused, why did this little demon suddenly become so close to her? Could it be that he has some conspiracy?
How did she know that Jean really came to join her.
Yu Xiaocao couldn't find the piano that day because he saw a vendor selling rock sugar gourds. Anxious to taste the cute red ball, he chased the vendor all the way, of course, he didn't have the heart to take care of the grass. However, even if he still has a little conscience, he bought two bunches and brought one bunch to Yu Xiaocao.
He ate as he walked, and in a short time he nibbled on it. When he returned to the same place, he found that Yu Xiaocao was no longer there, but his sharp eyes saw her in the crowd not far away.
He looked at the sugar gourd in his hand and said to himself, "Qin, that woman is not here, you can enjoy these delicious foods alone." ”
He smiled, and ate the rest of the bunch in two clicks. Then he wiped his mouth, squeezed into the crowd and disappeared.
He didn't plan to meet Yu Xiaocao again. robbed her of her money and said that he wanted to invite her to eat, but he left her halfway, and when they met again, she estimated that she was really going to beat him.
Jean can't be provoked, but he can hide.
But who would have thought that the money in the mortal world was too unspent, he didn't buy anything to eat at all, and in less than a day or two, he was penniless.
He wanted to repeat his old trick and knock people out to rob them of their money bags, but no one wanted to deal with him. I thought about turning into a terrifying appearance and scaring people. But who would have thought that before the mortals could see his appearance clearly, he would have already run away in smoke, and the speed was unbelievably fast (of course the escape was fast). What's even more infuriating is that he didn't deceive anyone, and he was almost deceived by others.
The traffickers lied to him that they had endless food to give him a taste. He didn't think much about it, but they took him to a remote place, and struck him with a stick. When he woke up, he was locked in the firewood room, and the door was tightly chained.
However, it didn't bother him.
He was clever, and while they were bringing him food, he rushed out the moment he opened the door, and went straight to the street, but he knocked the person who opened the door very lightly, and sat on the ground and wailed.
"Well deserved!"
Jean was fooled once, and vowed never to be fooled a second time.
"How can the mortal world be more dangerous than the demon world? Or ・・・・・ that woman is ・・・・・・"
Jean has been wandering outside for a few days, not to mention how lonely she is. In addition, he has to beware of those who have ill intentions, and it is really difficult for him to support his lack of cultivation.
He missed his master very much, but he couldn't find it, and if he continued like this, his cultivation would soon be exhausted and he would turn back into a lute.
"I don't want to change back." Jean curled up in the corner of the street, watching the crowd of people come and go in a daze.
yes, go find the woman.
His dim eyes flashed and regained their brilliance.
That woman was not like any other mortal.
When Koto finally left Yu Kokusa, she was in front of Asakusado, and Koto remembered that place and made up her mind to find her.
When he came to Asakusado, he accidentally discovered something unusual about this pigeon, so he stole a few pieces every day to absorb the essence and blood in it, so as to maintain his demonic power.
Of course, he also secretly observed Yu Xiaocao.
He noticed that the woman seemed to have some resemblance to his master—a smile on her face, even though her heart was full of sad things.
Mood is such a thing, Qin can understand it best.
"Master, Jean can't find you, but Jean finds someone who looks like you."
He leaned on the roof, looked through the window of the room below, and looked at Yu Xiaocao and Ah Cai. The two of them always talk and laugh together, which makes the onlookers feel happy.
Every time he looked at them, he couldn't help but think:
Master, is that a companion?
Jean is so lonely, and Jean also wants companions.
