Ling'er followed Chef Sun back to the courtyard where he lived, and Chef Sun said: "Boy, wash and sleep early, don't go out at night, Ming'er will go to the kitchen at three o'clock in the morning to hand over to those errands!" ”

"Poor?"

Chef Sun glanced at him: "It's just that we just came to our kitchen to guard those men!" They are officials specially invited by the owner from the county seat to help! ”

"Official!" Ling'er opened her mouth wide in surprise, that group of people was actually an official, not like an official!

Chef Sun snorted coldly: "What's so great about the official errand?" If you don't be greedy or scrape, it's only a few hundred dollars a month, and this errand is more than a few years for them, do you think people with no money will come? Hum! You little hairy man, you don't understand what you say, go back to the house! ”

Chef Sun went to his room with his hands behind his back, and Ling'er stood in place for a long time, until Chef Sun came out with a wooden basin, and when he saw that he was still in the same place, he roared: "What are you doing stupidly?" Go back to the house! ”

"Oh, yes!" Ling'er promised to let go of the girl and ran to her room, and after entering, she slammed the door shut. Chef Sun stared at Ling'er's room and muttered: "Stinky boy, I have to say it a few times......

Ling'er went back to the house to wash up, turned off the lights, sat on the bed, and replayed the conversation she overheard in the morning over and over again in her head. This Chef Sun usually looks quite normal, but there are obviously two people in the room, except for Steward Liu, who is him, and there can be no one else talking to Steward Liu.

What the hell does this Chef Sun do? What was the purpose of his coming to the Yan family? Why was he chosen? Steward Liu said that he was a substitute for the dead, what did they want to do with themselves? I always feel that this thing is very hanging, do you want to leave this place? But how do you leave?

Ling'er didn't know how long she had been sitting, and she heard the bell of the bell tower outside ringing, but it was already midnight? She suddenly remembered the psychedelic grass in the corner of the courtyard, so she stepped lightly into the bed, felt under the window and looked out.

Outside, the moonlight was bright and starlight, and the whole courtyard was covered with a faint soft white veil, and the scenery was quite clear. She searched carefully a few times, and there was silence outside, except for the sound of insects! Chef Sun's room was so dark that he couldn't see anything, and the corner of the wall where he had seen psychedelic grass for the first two times was empty, as if everything in the world was sleeping peacefully!

Ling'er was unwilling, and lay under the window for half an hour, until the drums sounded and her eyelids fought, she retreated to the bed, fell up, wrapped in the quilt and fell asleep.

Before dawn the next day, Ling'er was awakened by a thunderous knock on the door, she hurriedly straightened her hair and clothes, jumped over and flicked the door latch, the door was kicked open with a snap, and then there was a stinking scolding that split her head and covered her face: "Stinky boy, what did Lao Tzu say last night?" I have to go to the kitchen before three o'clock to turn my shift, what time is it? Still sleeping, don't you want to do it......"

Ling'er shrunk her neck to suffer, and she was still sneaking into shoes under her feet! This stinking scolding like wind and rain and thunder and lightning lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour, and the other party scolded enough, and waved his hand: "What are you doing stupidly?" Hurry up and hand over! ”

Ling'er hurriedly ran out of the door, but found that it was dark outside, and the moon was still hanging in the sky, so it didn't seem too late? What time is it?

"Stinky boy, what's the rub? Just go! There was a roar behind him, and Ling'er jumped out in fright like a frightened rabbit. When she ran to the door of the private kitchen, several men who came to hand over last night were sitting in front of the door and napping, when they heard the voice, the leader pulled out a big knife and shouted: "Who is coming?" ”

Ling'er timidly walked out: "Official... Official, it's me! ”

"Stop, what are you doing?"

"I'm Chef Sun's helper, and I'm in charge of guarding the porcelain in the storage room during the day!"

The other party looked at Ling'er suspiciously, and a man behind him stepped forward and whispered: "Big brother, when I handed over yesterday, I also saw this kid, it should be no problem!" ”

The leader then put away the big knife, looked at the sky, the sky began to glow slightly, there was already a light in the big kitchen, he asked in a deep voice: "What time is it?" ”

The man in the back took out something from his arms and looked at it, "It's a little past two o'clock!" ”

"Well, wake everyone up, and in a quarter and a half hours, our mission for today will be complete!"

"Big brother, the big guys are awake! I don't think it's much time away anyway, and there are people in the big kitchen outside, so there must be no accident at this time, let's leave it early, right? ”

"No, we said when we took the task, every night from the middle of the hour to the middle of the hour, the rest of the time if there is a problem, we don't care, but during this period there must be no problem! So much time has passed, and it is not a quarter of an hour, everyone gets up and is ready to prepare! ”

Ling'er felt a lot of praise in her heart when she heard this, but she didn't expect this official to be quite responsible! She stood there and asked timidly, "Uncle, may I ask... Am I waiting here? ”

The official leader looked her up and down, perhaps because she was too young and small to pose any threat, so he pointed to the stool they used to rest next to her and said, "Sit down!" When the hour comes, we'll go! ”

"Thank you, uncle!" Ling'er thanked happily, jumped over in a few steps, and sat upright.

The official leader turned around twice, instructed his subordinates, paced to Ling'er's side, and then looked at the hour, it seemed that there was still half an hour, he put his hands around his chest and said, "Boy, what's your name?" Why are you alone, surnamed Sun? ”

Ling'er hurriedly stood up and bowed first: "Official, my name is Xiaoshi, I was called by Grandpa Sun yesterday morning to be in charge of guarding the porcelain, Grandpa Sun asked me to come over before three o'clock to hand over, so as not to delay the official!" ”

The official head stroked his chin and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, the kid can talk!" How much does the Yan family pay you for this errand? ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, "Back to the official, Xiaoshi only came a few days ago, he doesn't understand anything, and he has never received a salary!" ”

"Oh? Came just a few days ago? There seemed to be a hint of vigilance in the tone of the official leader, and Ling'er hurriedly added:

"Yes, my father was sick a few days ago, and my mother asked me to catch the only valuable rabbits in the family and sell them in the town, so that I could exchange them for some medicinal herbs and rice grains. At that time, I happened to meet Yu Sanye, who went to the market to collect game, they wanted my rabbit but didn't give it to ......, and later said that there was a lack of a guy in the restaurant here to call me! They promised to pay me! ”

The official head snorted coldly: "It's Yu San's goods again, what kind of master is he?" It's not enough to lift shoes in front of Lao Tzu! ”

Ling'er bowed her head and didn't answer, half an hour later, the big kitchen was lively, and the sky was much brighter all of a sudden, and the official head waved his hand: "Brothers, the time has come, call it a day!" ”

The men stood up one after another, stretched their waists and yawned, muttering and complaining: "Alas, it's finally time! After staying up all night, I didn't do anything, and I was so tired that my back hurt! ”

"Yes, it's okay to be on an errand for a day or two in the middle of the night, but it's half a month all at once, it's really tiring! Big brother, you tell the owner to let them add more money, or they won't lose too much! ”

"Okay, the errand is done, as long as it doesn't go wrong, I will want it if you don't say it! Little stone, come here! ”

Ling'er Dong Dong ran over, and the other party threw a bunch of keys into her arms: "Here you go, the keys to the kitchen door and storage room, put them away, and return them to me when they hand over tonight!" ”

Ling'er hurriedly hugged the baby, nodded and promised: "Okay, don't worry, official, I will take care of it!" ”

"Hehe, you kid! Lao Tzu's surname is Shi, the second in line! ”

"Second Master Shi is good!" Ling'er bowed very respectfully, Shi Lao Er nodded with satisfaction, patted her shoulder vigorously and waved his hand, and slowly left with this group of five big and three thick men yawning.

Ling'er stood at the door with the key for a while, and it wasn't until a quarter of an hour later, when the sky was full of light, that Chef Sun shook it slowly, saw the key in Ling'er's hand, frowned, and said, "Boy, what kind of key is this?" ”

"This... It's the official surnamed Shi just now, he asked me to keep it first, and then return it to him when it is handed over at night! ”

Chef Sun stared at Ling'er, his eyes flashed, and after a while, he patted Ling'er on the shoulder and said, "Good, good, boy!" Then he walked around Ling'er to the kitchen door, took out the key and wanted to open the door.

When he reached the keyhole, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Boy, you come!" ”

Ling'er hurriedly agreed, and hurriedly stepped forward with a bunch of keys, this one, that one, and worked for a while, not to mention opening the door, the interlocking hole was not inserted! But Chef Sun stood behind him with his hands on his chest and watched quietly, seeing that Ling'er was so embarrassed and didn't say anything to help, Ling'er could feel that the inquiring eyes behind him were staring at his hands!

Ling'er took a deep breath, tried to calm down, tried one by one, clicked, and the door lock finally opened! Then she stood aside and bowed her head to let Chef Sun in.

Chef Sun nodded, hummed in, and then he walked straight to the door of the storage room and said, "Boy, come here, open the door of the storage room, I want to go in and check things!" ”

Ling'er still walked, this time it didn't take much time, it was easy to find the key and open the door, Chef Sun squinted at the key in Ling'er's hand, pointed to the remaining small key and said, "What is that for?" ”

Ling'er looked down, there were a total of eight on this keychain, three big ones, five small ones, two big ones had already been used, and the small ones... She really didn't know, so she answered truthfully.

Chef Sun walked into the storage room, pointed to the wooden boxes containing porcelain on the floor, and said, "Come in and try these boxes with that key!" ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, looked at the small key, looked at the wooden box, and then looked at Chef Sun, seeing that he squinted slightly, there seemed to be a trace of hostility in his eyes, and... How much does it count?

She chuckled in her heart, by the way, the contents of this wooden box are Chef Sun's treasure, if this key can even open this thing, then wouldn't she have committed Chef Sun's taboo? That... Will he ......

Ling'er hurriedly lowered her head and sent the key forward: "Grandpa Sun, don't dare to have a small stone, you should open it!" ”

Chef Sun glanced at the key, waved his hand, and said, "The one surnamed Shi will give you the key for safekeeping, you should be dutiful, and you will never easily transfer it to others, if something goes wrong...... Hum! ”

Ling'er was startled, hearing what Chef Sun said, she was a little at a loss, and it was not the key she was holding to take it back, nor was it if she didn't accept it! She struggled for a long time, and planned to take back the key in her pocket, but felt that her hand was light, Chef Sun picked up the key and looked at it, and then squatted in front of the wooden box and began to unlock it.
