It was only a while since Du Qiyue returned to the house, and the smell of egg cakes was still wafting in the yard, and Liu Momo smelled the smell as soon as he came in, and sighed in the direction of the kitchen. If Du Fugui and Zhao Qing were still there, how could they be willing to let Du Qiyue go hungry, let alone let him go to the kitchen to get food by himself hungry.

Zhao Qing married into the Du family for many years without getting pregnant, tried many methods to no avail, and finally Du Fugui took him all the way to a temple in the next province that heard that the pregnancy was very accurate, and the two begged for a long time before Zhao Qing became pregnant with Du Qiyue. The husband and wife have great expectations for Du Qiyue, a hard-won child, and have always hoped that Du Qiyue will be able to get ahead by reading in the future, so they spent a lot of money on Du Qiyue's reading, buying the best pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and inviting the best master, never caring about silver. In these ten miles and eight townships, there are many people with similar backgrounds to the Du family, but I have never seen much of a person who can be a husband of the Du family.

Liu Momo wiped his eyes, walked into Du Qiyue's room and said: "Xiaoyue is very hungry, Momo has been delayed a little time at her mother's house, and she came back late to cook, so you are sick and go to the kitchen by yourself, tomorrow Momo will definitely remember to cook early." ”

"It's okay, I'm all right."

Du Qiyue walked over to pick up the basket in Liu Momo's hand, but was pushed away by Liu Momo, Liu Momo pointed to the bed, and said undoubtedly: "Xiaoyue, you go to the bed and lie down, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold anymore." ”

Du Qiyue had just eaten two egg cakes, although he was not full, he was also warm because of what he ate, but he still listened to Liu Momo's words and lay back on the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt.

Liu Momo put down the basket and said with a little nostalgia: "I remember that when you were a child, you always liked to follow your father into the kitchen to make snacks, and later the master of your school said the phrase 'gentleman is far away from cooking', and your father and Ah Mo don't let you into the kitchen very much, as long as you study wholeheartedly." You always say that you are going to enter the court in the future, how can you enter the kitchen, if you know that you are sick and make your own food, how sad your heart is. ”

"But I'm like this now, one day I'm going to cook by myself, and I can't let Liu Momo send me a lifetime of food." Du Qiyue said.

"I'm willing to send you food for the rest of your life." Liu Momo said, "Momo will tell you the truth in my heart, you have grown up watching Momo since childhood, and Momo treats you as your own son, and it is natural for you to eat and cook." Besides, you will eventually take the imperial examination in the future, and if you let others know that you often go to the kitchen at home, others will look down on you. ”

Although Du Qiyue is respected as a pastry chef, he is actually a chef, and he is also a chef who has been a cook for more than ten years, a chef who loves his profession very much. Du Qiyue used to live in the staff dormitory of the hotel, in addition to normal working hours, he usually stayed in the kitchen when he had nothing to do, the kitchen was his home, and the kneading board of the dough made him feel more kind than his bed, and it was really more uncomfortable to let a person like him not go to the kitchen than to kill him.

So Du Qiyue listened to Liu Momo's words, and immediately excused himself: "I know that Momo is good to me, but now that I'm sick, it's naturally nothing to send me food." But after I got better, and we didn't live in the same house, why didn't it be good if they came to bring me food every day? Even if I can get by in my heart, I don't bother me, but how much gossip will those people outside. Why, if you want me to say that I'll cook my own food in the future. ”

Liu Momo knew that what Du Qiyue said was very reasonable, but when he thought of Du Qiyue's deceased father, Liu Momo sighed and said: "When your father was alive, he was looking forward to you getting ahead every day. ”

In the memory of the original owner Du Qiyue, Du Fugui and Liu Momo's husband are indeed people who are very eager for their son Jackie Chan, and they are a little paranoid that Du Qiyue is the dragon and phoenix among people, and he will definitely go to the court in the future, so he really regards Du Qiyue as a future official. I don't know why they are so confident, although the original owner Du Qiyue is really smart, but in Du Qiyue's opinion, if he can be admitted to Xiucai, it will be very good.

Besides, Du Qiyue really hasn't thought much about the imperial examination now, the painful college entrance examination left a big psychological shadow on him back then, if he can, Du Qiyue really doesn't want to go through that kind of pain a few more times, and now in this dynasty, the imperial examination will only be more difficult than the college entrance examination.

Before the college entrance examination, Du Qiyue studied systematically for more than ten years, and in the last three years, he even crammed knowledge down, and I don't know how many mock exam papers I made. Now, the original owner Du Qiyue has just studied in a college in a small country for a few years, although he has learned very well, but after changing his soul inside, it is Du Xiaoyang's turn that he basically forgot about seventy-seven-eighty-eight, and he is powerless to go to the imperial examination. Even if Du Qiyue remembers all the knowledge, he can take the imperial examination, but if he wants to go to the court, it is more south than ascending to the sky.

Dafeng Dynasty is an unusually prosperous country, the economy, military, culture is very prosperous, the imperial examination here is prosperous, the status of the literati is very high, the world is a literati one after another, and the talents who go to the imperial examination once a year do not know how many. In this kind of dynasty with many talents, if you are not really talented, it is very difficult to rely on the imperial examination to enter the court as an official. Everyone who has become an official has no idea how many scholars' 'corpses' they have stepped on before they go to the court.

Moreover, the literati are many and aggressive, and they usually have to compete in couplets and poems, and they also have to compare and write a few big characters and paintings in their spare time. The more strife there is, the more strife there is, and the more strife there is, and all kinds of small groups and factions come out. These small groups and factions can write a few articles at most, and they can casually launch a war with elegant skin, no gunsmoke, and no blood. In this kind of big situation, even if you are an official, you can become cannon fodder in minutes without any background and connections. Therefore, there are many famous people in the Dafeng Dynasty now, but there are very few people who really go to the imperial examination, and they don't disdain to be with the imperial court at all.

Du Qiyue also disdains to be in the company of the court, he just wants to be a happy pastry chef, make many of his favorite pastries every day, and then sell them all to make a lot of money and live a comfortable life. So Du Qiyue felt that he could probably only live up to Du Fugui and Zhao Momo's expectations, he silently bowed to the two of them in his heart, hoping that they wouldn't mind, of course, he also bowed to the original owner, after all, the original owner's wish was also to get ahead, but Du Qiyue really had more than enough heart and not enough strength. The imperial examination of the Dafeng Dynasty is all about scriptures, poems, strategies and the like, he doesn't understand these at all, and he can't make it up, if he takes the exam to make up dim sum, he can participate.

Thinking of these things in his heart, Du Qiyue didn't tell Liu Momo, he said that Liu Momo would definitely not agree to him giving up the imperial examination. At present, it seems that he will not be willing to cook by himself, but this matter is not in a hurry now, his body is not yet complete, the weather in early spring is cold and hot, and it is not good for him to move around more, and it will be good for him to cook by himself after he is well in a few days, so he touched his stomach and changed the topic, and said: "What, what dinner I made, I smell the fragrance!" ”

Seeing that Du Qiyue was reluctant to continue, Liu Momo was sad and didn't want to mention his father and Ame, so he took out the dishes and chopsticks from the basket and handed them to Du Qiyue, and said along Du Qiyue's question: "I went back to my parents' house and brought some small catfish back, boiled a pot of soup and made catfish noodles, you can eat and see." ”

Du Qiyue took the bowl and looked at it, the bowl bigger than his head was filled with a full bowl, the white thick noodles were pushed sharply, and a lot of fish and vegetables could be seen in the milky white soup, which smelled extremely fragrant, which made people very appetizing.

Flipping through the chopsticks, Du Qiyue looked at the noodles and fish in the bowl and felt a little moved, not to mention the meal at noon, this meal alone costs one or twenty yuan. Noodles are fine food, and people in the countryside don't eat much, so they usually have to add some coarse grains to it, and some people usually eat white noodles. Besides, the price of catfish now costs 20 yuan a catty, and the two small catfish in his bowl add up to a catty, although these catfish were given by Liu Momo's mother's family, it is estimated that it didn't cost much, but it is a great intention to give Du Qiyue to eat.

Bowed his head and took a sip of noodle soup, Du Qiyue smacked his mouth, the catfish in this soup should be fried in hot oil with green onion and ginger, although there was no extra condiment, but after cooking, there was no fishy smell at all, and it was sweet and sweet.

"Xiaoyue, is it delicious?" Liu Momo asked.

"Delicious!" Du Qiyue nodded, looked at Liu Momo and said, "Momo, don't cook such a good meal tomorrow, there is meat and tofu for lunch today, and catfish in the evening, it's too expensive." ”

Liu Momo was a little unhappy when he heard this, and said: "In this busy farming season, the family has eaten well, and you only eat a little bit of food, and it doesn't cost you any money." Besides, you are just sick now, so you should eat more to make up for it. Don't worry about this in your little family, you can eat whatever you want, it's just a matter of more pairs of chopsticks. Why would they give you these good things to eat, but not for your family? Don't worry, don't worry, you're just sick, you can't bother. ”

"But ......"

"No, but, listen to what you say, you won't be fat with a swollen face, you will eat whatever you eat at home, but you have only eaten better recently, and you can finish the things in the field, so you don't have such good food." Liu Momo interrupted Du Qiyue's words and said.

After saying this, it would be bad for Du Qiyue to say anything, so he nodded and lowered his head and ate noodles obediently, he had to walk a short way from Liu Momo's house to his house, and if he didn't eat this noodles, he would be covered up. It's just that when eating noodles, Du Qiyue remembered in his heart that Liu Momo was good, the Du family was like this, and serious relatives didn't come to take care of him, but Liu Momo still took care of him like this, and he Du Qiyue must repay this kindness in the future.
