"What are you doing?" The two turned around and saw Chef Sun walking over with a straight face.

"Hehe, Master Sun, you are back, you have been waiting for you for a long time! You see, these are the ingredients we have prepared, I wonder if Master Sun is satisfied? Steward Liu greeted him with a smile, Chef Sun glanced at him, turned to Ling'er and reproached, "Boy, who asked you to open the door of this storeroom?" ”

"I... That ......" Ling'er stammered and didn't know how to answer,

"Hehe, Master Sun, don't be angry, I'm thinking that tomorrow will be the official banquet, it is when these things come in handy, they should be taken out in advance to clean and clean for later use! It's a pity that Xiaoshi doesn't have the key to the box here, so we can only see if the box is there? Don't you make a mistake and make the owner lose face, right? ”

Chef Sun said unhappily: "What do you mean by whether you are here?" Can I still lose something in this kitchen? ”

"Hehe, no, no, Master Sun, let's take a look at the ingredients! Oh, by the way, the dishes and tableware for the distinguished guests were also delivered, although there are no these precious items in the storeroom, but they are all fine products from the official kiln, do you want to take a look? ”

Hearing this, Chef Sun immediately searched around, and his eyes turned to a few large wooden boxes in the middle of the room and did not move! Steward Liu accompanied him and said with a smile: "Hehe, Master Sun still has a vision, so many things, you can find a position at a glance, and you deserve to be a master in a famous provincial city!" Come on, help you open it below! ”

Chef Sun was about to take a step, when he suddenly paused, turned around and strode into the storage room, walked around a few boxes inside, walked around twice, and then came out with a black face, and said fiercely: "What are you doing stupidly?" Why don't you lock the door soon? ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, quickly took out the key, and hurriedly closed the door of the storage room and locked it. Chef Sun stood until he watched Ling'er lock the two locks before he snorted coldly and strode towards the other large wooden boxes in the room.

Steward Liu followed him, smiling and introducing the origin, vintage, firing method, value, etc. of those porcelain, Chef Sun paced with his hands behind his back and listened with great interest, and from time to time took out a few dishes to play with.

Ling'er found that whenever the value was high, Chef Sun kept holding the love and touching, and the expression of enjoyment was like holding his lover! It wasn't until the next one of higher value appeared that he gave up this one to get another!

And Steward Liu next to him was no better, seeing that Chef Sun liked it, he also stared at that thing with his eyes shining, and occasionally leaned into Chef Sun's ear and whispered, I don't know what he was talking about?

How strange this situation is, it was not easy for the two of them to check the contents of the large wooden boxes, they returned to the tea table above and sat down, Steward Liu smiled and said, "Master Sun, look... How is this shipment? ”

Chef Sun coughed twice, Steward Liu was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around and saw Ling'er still standing next to him, he said, "Oh, little stone, are you still there?" Didn't I tell you to go out and help? ”

Ling'er said with a confused face: "Help? What are you doing? ”

"This ...... Oh, by the way, you were introduced by Yu San, and the guy said that Yu San was looking for you for something, so you had time to go to the front restaurant to find him! ”

Yu three? It's the ruffian head who wanted to rob his rabbit in the first place! What is he looking for himself? But now I still have a mission, do you want to go? She looked inquiringly at Chef Sun. Chef Sun took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Go ahead, come back early!" ”

Ling'er's heart was relieved, great, she can finally go out! She thanked the two of them and was about to walk to the door, but suddenly remembered that the key was still on her, so she turned around and took out the key and sent it to Chef Sun with both hands: "Grandpa Sun, there are many people in the restaurant in front, this key is important, Xiaoshi is afraid that he will lose it accidentally, please help Grandpa Sun keep it!" ”

Chef Sun said with a displeased face: "I kept it for you, what else do you want you to do?" ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and Steward Liu smiled and said, "Oh, Master Sun, look at you, your face is as black as Bao Gong, don't scare the little stone!" Little stone, it's okay, there is a mark on this key, no one dares to ask for it, and others will hand it over obediently if they pick it up! You go, don't worry, go slowly, it's okay to come back after lunch! ”

These two people are singing red face and white face, if they hadn't eavesdropped on their conversation before, they thought that these two people were born to be at odds, what did they want to do in front of outsiders? Ling'er couldn't hold back, and looked at Chef Sun hesitantly, and Chef Sun roared with a black face: "What are you doing stupidly?" Go ahead! ”

Ling'er was startled, and she ran out if she let go of the girl, she ran to the door between the back kitchen and the restaurant in front, but was stopped by the janitor, "Hey, what are you doing?" Where to go? ”

"I... I am Grandpa Sun's helper, I heard that Yu Sanye was looking for me in front, so I went to see Yu Sanye in front! ”

The little guy looked at Ling'er for a while, paid special attention to her clothes, and frowned: "Boy, there will be a banquet tomorrow, and the people in the back kitchen are too busy to be busy, you still have the heart to hang around here!" Go away, go away, get back to work! ”

Ling'er was puzzled: "But... But the third master Yu asked me to come over, maybe there is some important errand! ”

"Who sent you the word? Yu San went to the ancestral house of the owner, tonight to keep vigil, until the end of the banquet will not come back, as a kitchen helper, you are not allowed to leave the kitchen yard half a step before the end of the banquet, this rule was set yesterday, no one informed you? ”

"Huh? Can't get out? ”

"That's right! That's it, go away, do what you have to do, don't get in the way here! "The little guy guarding the door is impatient to drive away Ling'er, and just these few words, there have been a few groups of people in and out of this courtyard gate, no matter who enters, those who come out must check the waist card! Make it like a criminal!

Ling'er had no choice but to walk back slowly, and there were pedestrians coming and going all the way, so that she had to keep retreating and dodging. When he arrived at the door of the big kitchen, Ling'er stopped, remembering that Steward Liu tried his best to drive him out, he seemed to have something to discuss with Chef Sun? Now I will definitely be unhappy when I go back, what should I do? Where to go now?

She originally wanted to go to the big kitchen to see Aunt Bai and them, but the big kitchen is very busy now, not only did she not squeeze in, but she tossed herself tired, forget it, it is better to go back to sleep, anyway, Steward Liu said that it doesn't matter if she lets herself eat and then go, so she walked weakly to the courtyard where Chef Sun rested.

When you enter the courtyard door, it is quiet inside, completely different from the noisy chaos of the large kitchen. When Ling'er walked to her room, she inadvertently glanced at Chef Sun's kitchen, but when she reached out to push her door, she suddenly stopped, and looked back at Chef Sun's room, hey! The window of his room was so dark that it seemed... It's like a black cloth?

I remember that when I came over just now, I obviously saw that the door of the private kitchen was open, which was exactly the same as when I came out before, that is, Steward Liu was still discussing things with Chef Sun in the private kitchen, so there must be no one in Sun's kitchen! If no one is there, the cover is tight in broad daylight, why is that?

Ling'er tilted her head and thought for a while, and the psychedelic grass she had seen that night suddenly popped out of her mind! She had a thrill in her heart, and looked around vigilantly, this small courtyard is in the most remote corner of the kitchen yard of Yan's Restaurant, as long as the courtyard door is closed, no matter how busy it is outside, it is still quiet inside, and it is a good place to rest.

Counting the hour, it is about a quarter of noon, which is the busiest time outside, according to the past habit, if Chef Sun wants to come back to rest, he usually has to wait until after noon, so there is at least half an hour left, so it is better to ......

Ling'er suddenly became excited, she sneaked to the gate of the courtyard, looked out from the crack in the door for a long time, made sure that no one paid attention to this side, and no one came in, so she closed the courtyard door tightly, and wanted to latch, but she was afraid that Chef Sun would come back suddenly, so she took the big broom that swept the yard and put it behind the door, and it was good to have a sound when someone came in.

Then she checked it carefully again, and after making sure that there was no one else in the courtyard, she tiptoed to Chef Sun's room. She squatted in front of the door for a long time, and only then gently pushed the door after confirming that there was no movement inside, I don't know if there was a problem with the door, or if she didn't use enough strength, she tried the door a few times and didn't move at all!

Could it be bolted from the inside? She leaned into the crack in the door and peeked in, and began to see nothing clearly, but after getting used to it for a while, she seemed to feel a faint green light in the room! Ling'er was overjoyed, could it be psychedelic grass?

She pushed the door hard, and there was a bang behind it, and it seemed that something had fallen! She was startled, instinctively wanted to pull her legs and run, and felt that this was inappropriate as soon as she took a step, as soon as Chef Sun came back, she knew that she had been here, and then she would be finished, so it was better to go in and see what was inside, and then find a way to restore the mechanism to its original state!

So, she retracted, cautiously crossed the threshold, and closed the door. She glanced around hastily, and was immediately startled by the situation in front of her: she saw that the room of twenty or thirty square meters was originally simply furnished, with only one bed, one table and one stool, but there was very little space left, because it was filled with several large wooden boxes; And at the foot of the bed, something covered in a black cloth was glowing green!

Ling'er unconsciously walked to the position of the light source, stood still for a moment, tried to control her emotions, trembled her hand to remove the black cloth, and a cluster of crystal clear green plants suddenly jumped into her eyelids, only to see that its leaves were small and thick, like a grain of rice, it was the psychedelic grass that she had seen in the courtyard before!

I was not mistaken, this thing was really planted by Chef Sun! Thinking of the description of this grass in the "Collection of Herbs", Ling'er hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his arms, picked some millet leaves at the lower end that were not easy to find, and wrapped them and stuffed them into his arms. Then she stood up to look at something in the doorway, but accidentally bumped into the edge of the bed.

"Click~~~" There is a noise in the house? Ling'er was so frightened that she jumped to the door in a few steps, and stood motionless against the wall. After a few breaths, the clicking sound finally stopped, and Ling'er looked in the direction where the sound came from, and found that it came from a curtain on the side of the bed, which was usually the place where the gong bucket was placed in the room.

She hesitated slightly, slowly lifted the curtain, and found that there was a square black hole with a size of one square meter behind it, and she could faintly see the ladder leading to the bottom!
