CHAPTER XLIII

Good-looking people are always easy to attract people's eyes, but Du Qiyue also paid attention to proportion, stared at other people's hands a few times, sighed in his heart, and then lowered his eyes and withdrew his gaze.

Wu Mingyao ate a few bites of noodles, and when he saw that Du Qiyue was still standing stiffly, he beckoned him to sit on the stone bench on the side, then smashed his mouth, and commented on this bowl of noodles: "The noodles are good noodles, the heat is just right, and there is toughness when chewing, although the side dishes are simple, they are refreshing to eat, and they look good." It's just that this noodle soup is a little unsatisfactory, it's too greasy, the taste is mixed, and you have to put some meat and bones in the good chicken soup, which makes it nondescript. ”

The noodle soup was ready-made in Wu's mansion, and even if it wasn't delicious, it didn't matter what Du Qiyue was doing, so he didn't answer.

Wu Mingyao didn't care, and after commenting on himself, he looked sideways at Du Qiyue and said; "I asked the housekeeper of the He family yesterday, and he said that your noodle soup was specially boiled in He Mansion two days in advance, and it tasted very good. Leya, will you also boil a pot for me? ”

"You're the pickiest mouthful." Zhao Yiyun swallowed the noodles in his mouth and said, "I'm fine to eat, with side dishes, it's not very greasy." ”

"Cousin, I'll just eat this hobby, and I can be more careful." Wu Mingyao just stared at Du Qiyue with his eyes, and said: "In life, only eat the biggest, naturally you can pick your mouth, Le Ya, don't you say?" ”

The corners of Du Qiyue's mouth twitched, and she slandered in her heart, and said: "If the owner wants to drink this soup, then I will write a list later, and I have to go to the pharmacy to buy a few spices, I'm afraid that the government has not prepared them." ”

Wu Mingyao raised his eyebrows and said, "Take medicinal herbs as spices?" It's a strange one. I've only heard of people eating tonic as a meal, but I haven't heard of a soup made with medicinal herbs. ”

"It's all pungent and warm medicinal herbs, which are good for the body but don't have any big medicinal properties, but they just borrow a fragrance." Du Qiyue said.

"Then you can write a list later, and give it to Lianming." Wu Mingyao nodded when he heard this, but in the end, he was going to use medicinal materials, although Du Qiyue said that it was not a big deal, but he still had to take a closer look, Lianming was doing things safely, and it was most appropriate to hand them over to him.

Du Qiyue knew that Wu Mingyao must have asked the doctor to make sure that there would be nothing to do before he would let him boil medicine with medicinal materials, in fact, he didn't want to use these doubtful medicinal materials, but there were too few seasonings in Dafeng Dynasty, and even less flavors, but if you want to make the soup delicious, you must have fragrant, this is the best with spices, and in his previous life, he often used seasonings like thirteen spices when he made dim sum, but unfortunately there is no such thing at all now, so he had to bother to buy medicine and mix it himself.

Although Wu Mingyao disliked that the noodle soup was not delicious, the chopsticks did not stop much, and he ate up a bowl of noodles after a while. The big bowl of Wu's mansion is very delicate except for the soup bowl, so it looks like a bowl full of noodles, but in fact, there are not many things in it, Wu Mingyao is an edible one, only one bowl is definitely not enough, so he stretched out his hand and raised the empty bowl with only some noodle soup left in front of Du Qiyue, and asked, "Le Ya, is there anything else?" ”

"And." Du Qiyue just made noodles according to the food consumption of two adult men, so there was still left, he took the bowl, looked at Zhao Yiyun's direction, and saw that there were not many noodles in his bowl, so he asked, "Do you still want Zhao Gongzi?" ”

"No, that's enough." Zhao Yiyun shook his head, and his originally good mood suddenly became a little hazy. When he was in the barracks before, he could eat four or five bowls of noodles like this in one go, and even before he went to the barracks, he could eat two big bowls like Wu Mingyao. It's just that since taking that pill, his whole body has been slowly changing, and now even his appetite has become much smaller.

Every time he thought of this, Zhao Yiyun's heart was very uncomfortable, he knew that taking this pill was to save his life, but the changes in his body caused by this pill were extremely painful and even shameful for him. Zhao Yiyun's originally strong arms and legs have become slender, and the originally hard muscles are now gone, his skin is becoming more and more white and delicate, and the contours of his face have become softer, and it won't be long before he will become a complete brother, isn't it ironic, a man who can open up the territory has become a brother who can only hide deep in the inner courtyard of the deep house, this is simply the biggest joke God has made to him.

Wu Mingyao saw that Zhao Yiyun's face had changed, and he knew that he had thought of the changes in his body again, and he sighed in his heart, feeling only pity in his heart. Zhao Yiyun originally had an optimistic and straightforward personality, and he was so sad and depressed by the damn medicinal properties of that pill, it was like a different person, Wu Mingyao only hoped that after Zhao Yiyun's body completely changed, when the medicinal effect of that pill completely disappeared, his personality could be restored, even if it was not as hearty as it was originally, at least not like now.

Du Qiyue didn't know Zhao Yiyun's situation, and when he saw that there was another layer of sorrow on his face, he thought that he had said the wrong thing, so he closed his mouth and didn't dare to talk.

Zhao Yiyun felt a little out of shape, busy with his expression, and said: "Everything Du Langjun makes is delicious, I can eat more before I can leave." ”

Du Qiyue frowned invisibly when she heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Zhao Gongzi is leaving?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yiyun nodded, because he was not in good health, he had been delayed a lot of time along the way, and now that the weather was hot again, if he didn't hurry back to Dadu, he was afraid that it would not look good when his parents were buried.

"Cousin, is the date set?" Wu Mingyao asked.

"It's decided, Mama went to the wizard to make a divination, and she will leave on the third day of the next month." Zhao Yiyun said.

Wu Mingyao was a little reluctant to hear this, although many of his relatives and friends were built here, but Zhao Yiyun was the only one who was really close, and Zhao Yiyun didn't know when their cousins would see each other again. Wu Mingyao thought about it, so he stood up and made a serious gesture to Du Qiyue, who came over, and said, "Please also ask Le Ya to come a few more times tomorrow and make more fresh food." ”

Du Qiyue was taken aback by Wu Mingyao's sudden action, hurriedly put down the bowl and pressed down Wu Mingyao's hand, and said: "The owner doesn't have to be like this, Zhao Gongzi likes the food I make, so I am naturally willing to come over and cook food for Zhao Gongzi." ”

"Then I'll thank Leya." Wu Mingyao withdrew his hand and said.

Although Zhao Yiyun felt that this was too troublesome for Du Qiyue, it was not good to brush off Wu Mingyao's kindness, so he smiled at Du Qiyue and said, "Du Langjun, I've been bothering you these days." ”

"No trouble, no trouble." Du Qiyue hurriedly shook his head and said, in fact, except for the first two times, Wu Mingyao didn't say anything, and later when he came here to make snacks, Wu Mingyao would give him processing money, and Zhao Yiyun would also reward him with some elegant things, and he didn't lose at all. And Du Qiyue is quite willing to make snacks for Zhao Yiyun in his heart, just because of this smile, he feels that it is worth it.

Du Qiyue made a noodle in the He Family Dart Bureau, which can be said to be a big limelight, and within two days, the whole Dahu Town spread the events of that day, and later even passed on the scene of his noodles to the gods, saying that he put the dough in his hand and kneaded and pulled out a hundred-foot silk thread-like noodles, and the noodles were extremely fragrant, shining golden after cooking, and eating it could really live a long life.

When Da Mao described such rumors, Du Qiyue was speechless. It's okay to say that the noodles he makes are extremely fragrant, anyway, the soup he boils is really fragrant, but some people even say that his noodles will shine gold, and he is not a fairy, and he can also have his own visual effects. It's even more ridiculous if you can live a long life if you eat it, even if a miracle doctor goes down to earth, he probably can't make something that can make people live a long life.

But no matter what, it is true that Du Qiyue became famous, and in the next few days, he received several invitations, all of which were to invite him to a birthday banquet.

In normal times, Du Qiyue must be very happy, because this is an opportunity to make money. But now that he had promised Zhao Yiyun to make him snacks, it made him feel a little annoyed. Du Qiyue had the heart to push down a few, but he couldn't push it off with his identity, after all, the people who could afford the birthday banquet were rich or powerful people, and those people respectfully gave him an invitation.

The first family to do longevity is in Zhangjia Village, which is more than ten miles away from Liushuwan Village, and the longevity is Zhang Wucheng, an old man in Zhangjia Village, this Zhang Wucheng is an old talent, the eldest son is a county magistrate in another town, and the daughter is married to a rich family in the town, and the younger son has more than 20 acres in Zhangjia Village, which is very rich and powerful in the countryside.

Coincidentally, this Zhangjia Village is the maiden village of Du Fujin's wife Zhang Guihua, and Zhang Guihua and Zhang Wucheng are also a little related. When Zhang Renju, the youngest son of Zhang Wucheng, came to find Du Qiyue, he used the relationship of relatives to talk about it, probably because he was afraid that Du Qiyue would be busy receiving the birthday banquet invitation from the lord in the city, thinking that he could do things better if he was related to his family.

It's just that Du Qiyue, who is a relative, is not happy at all, and he can't wait to refuse it on the spot, but unfortunately he can't refuse whether he is a relative or not. Zhang Wucheng's eldest son can't manage the affairs of Dahu Town now as an official in another town, but who knows if he will be transferred to Dahu Town in the future, or whether he will be promoted, since Du Qiyue has decided to take the imperial examination, the people in the officialdom must not be offended, otherwise he may not be able to stumble behind his back when he takes the imperial examination in the future. Forget about the stumbling block, if it is like the plots he saw in the TV series before, there is some conspiracy or something, he, a small citizen of Shengdou, can really destroy him with his fingers.
