On the second day, it was sunny, and it was so hot as soon as it dawned, Chen Qiuniang changed into a single dress. The neat cut removes all the parts that Chen Qiuniang feels are superfluous, and the whole person is refreshed when she wears it. Because it is a long shirt, it does not lose the identity of the little son.

Chen Qiuniang got dressed and finished washing, because the weather was too hot and she didn't want to eat, she made a bowl of chilled sour plum soup with ready-made ingredients and drank it. After drinking the sour plum soup, it was still dawn. Chen Qiuniang opened a window, laid paper on the desk in front of the window, and kept thinking about how to meet Zhang Ci with a pen.

At this moment, Zhou Ming and the head chef of the fast food restaurant routinely sent the menu to Chen Qiuniang for review. Chen Qiuniang reviewed the meals and preparation materials of the fast food restaurant, estimated the customer flow, and asked the representative of the fast food restaurant chef class to go back, and at the same time asked Xiaoqing to check the cleanliness and freshness of the ingredients.

After the chef representative of the fast food restaurant walked with Xiaoqing, Zhou Ming and the three of them first reported the orders to be made for today's feast of the wealthy family, as well as the preparation and lack of various ingredients and condiments. Chen Qiu Niangzai took a closer look and took a pen to make instructions. After that, the cooking tips and recipes written for each of the three of them were presented to the three of them.

The three of them thanked each other. Chen Qiuniang waved them down. The three of them looked at each other, and finally Chen Mo pursed his lips and asked, "Gongzi Jiang, do you have any decisions?" ”

"You guys, why do you say that?" Chen Qiuniang smiled, but her heart was full of joy, is what she did really like explaining the future?

"I just think that Zhu Wenkang's courtship makes us puzzled. You're not the kind of person who can marry this kind of scum. Now, you have taught us a lot of things these days, and now you have given us the recipe for cooking-" Zhou Ming replied.

Chen Qiuniang sneered, shook her head and said, "You seem to know me very well. ”

"Jiang Gongzi, the three of us are not just here to learn cooking. At the same time, it is also here to protect you, you have to tell us if you have any difficulties. Li Kai was straightforward and fast-talking.

"You guys, don't talk about understanding a person lightly in the future. In this world, what you see with your eyes may not be true. Logical reasoning may not be reliable. Many things will deceive you by making false appearances. Recently, I just had to go on a trip to Yuzhou to investigate the opening of the first branch, and I was afraid that I would not be able to guide you in time, so I wrote these tips and some recipes for you. Chen Qiuniang casually recited a reason.

The three of them were suspicious, but in the end, Zhou Ming asked the question: Then don't you want to marry Zhu Wenkang?

"He's still engaged. I have to wait for him to withdraw from the marriage first, and then say, Yuzhou is not far away, and the Zhu family also has a large area of industry over there, and he also said that if I go to choose a branch, he will also go over to deal with the accounts there, and you can also take a look at the grand occasion of Yuzhou Wharf and have a look. The three of you have to take the lead for me, so as not to spoil my interest in playing. Chen Qiuniang said with a smile, her expression was really full of yearning.

Zhou Ming and the three of them saw her impermanence, and seemed to be true. The three of them couldn't make up their minds for a while, so they had to look at each other, and decided to do what Zhuxi Mountain had instructed them to do. So, Chen Mo lowered his voice and said, "No matter how Jiang Gongzi decides, the big boss has already sent someone to Liuhe Town, if Jiang Gongzi has something, he only needs to give an order." ”

After Chen Mo finished speaking, he looked at Chen Qiuniang like that, trying to see something from her face.

But although Chen Qiuniang was shocked in her heart, she was very calm on her face. Because although the people of Zhuxi Mountain are powerful, they are not rich in duels and are suspected of having a court background. The more Luo Hao and the others treated her, the less she could pull them into the water. She has lived in Zhuxi Mountain, although it is used as a meat ticket, but it is a rare peaceful paradise in this troubled world. She didn't want them to get into any trouble.

"Thank you for helping me. But I don't really have anything to do. Alright, go about your work. Chen Qiuniang smiled and waved them out.

Although Chen Mo and the three of them bowed and saluted to withdraw, their eyes still kept looking at Chen Qiuniang, hoping to see some clues. But they couldn't see anything. That face, pink and flawless, bright eyes and bright teeth, with a calm expression, brought the innocence of a little girl, and I really couldn't see any scheming at all.

"Is it really that we are too careful?" After exiting the Chen family's house, Zhou Ming couldn't help but mutter.

Li Kai and Chen Mo didn't speak, and they each fell into deep thought.

"I said you two, how do you deal with this?" Zhou Ming was a little anxious.

Li Kai shook his head, but Chen Mo frowned, and when he walked along the small alley of blue bricks and gray to the door of the backyard of the wealthy feast, he suddenly stopped and said to Zhou Ming and Li Kai: "I'm thinking about this, let's not be careless." After the incident in Zhuxi Mountain last time, we can all see that Jiang Gongzi is young, but he is really righteous. Whether it's for Zhuxi Mountain or for Mrs. Chen. It is better to risk death than to benefit more people only for their own benefit. ”

"Yes, you can see what happened last time." Li Kai agreed.

"It doesn't make sense. What can it affect us? Isn't Zhu Wenkang just a rich family, and he doesn't want the Zhang family to be so powerful. There are a lot of capable people in Zhuxi Mountain, so they can deal with it casually. Zhou Ming asked.

Chen Mo fell silent again. Li Kai shook his head and said, "No, no." Jiang Gongzi also said just now, what you see may not be true. Judging from the rumors we heard in the market, Zhu Wenkang is not simple, and that dinner, I went to the banquet with the shopkeeper and saw the person named Nian Nu next to Zhu Wenkang. It was a man, so beautiful that many women I had ever met. And that posture doesn't look like a little white face that is a male pet should have. It's really weird. ”

"How beautiful, can it be as beautiful as Jiang Gongzi? Jiang Gongzi is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Before, in Zhuxi Mountain, she dressed up as a little girl, and later wore the clothes of a fat aunt's daughter, which was inappropriate, I only thought she was good-looking, but now you see that Jiang Gongzi is wearing a child's outfit, and she is getting better and better. Coupled with that strategizing bearing, tsk, it is simply incomparable to many people. Zhou Ming has always talked a lot, and he deviated from the topic.

"No matter what, we have to pay close attention to Jiang Gongzi's movements. After the big boss confessed, the people of Zhuxi Mountain knew their kindness and repaid, and they must protect Jiang Gongzi. Besides, in two days, the third master will come to deal with this matter with full authority, and we will listen to his opinion. Chen Mo put his hands behind his back, made such a summary, and walked into the backyard of the wealthy feast.

And in this compartment, Chen Qiuniang sent Chen Mo and the others away, thinking of the deployment made by Luo Hao, her heart was moved, but she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't expect that in this incident, so many people would care about her, making her experience a lot of warmth that she had not experienced in her previous life.

In her previous life, her grandmother was absolutely indifferent; The villagers also have a moment of warmth, but once something happens, the feelings of envy, jealousy and hatred will turn into a vicious action of desperately stepping on people. As for later, as she gets older, it is more difficult for her to meet sincere treatment in an impetuous society. Later, she ran her own business, and occasionally some people would give Xiao En Xiaohui a short period of warmth, but once it involved interests, she could raise her hand and beat you so that your parents didn't know you.

"Thank you." Chen Qiuniang stood by the window, looking at the fiery pomegranate flowers blooming all over the courtyard, and said silently in her heart.

"But because you care about me so much, I can't even bother you." Chen Qiuniang closed her eyes gently. Then she reached out and closed the window, and changed into a lotus lotus girl's outfit.

She was already tall, although she was only nine years old, she looked twelve or thirteen years old, and she was also decent in girlish clothes.

She changed her clothes, picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Zhang Ci in her arms, and put away Zhu Wenkang's dagger together. Although it was only dawn at this time, the entire Chen Mansion was already quiet. Mrs. Chen went to the temple and didn't come back, Chen Wenzheng, Pan Qing, and Xiaoqing were all busy in front, while Mrs. Wang's husband was still helping Chen Qiu's mother's family in Liucun to supervise people to build a house. Mrs. Wang went to the temple to serve Mrs. Chen, and there were three maids cleaning the house at home, and two girls washing clothes by the stream behind the house.

Chen Qiuniang had arranged it in the house before, and she also specially told the little girl that she had a headache and wanted to sleep, and no one should come to disturb her. And now that she has changed into women's clothes, Chen Xiaowu didn't pay attention, so she entered Mrs. Chen's room.

Mrs. Chen's room has a secret passage that leads to a hidden cave in the back mountain. Because there may be bandits in the mountains, large families generally leave such secret passages when building houses. A few days ago, when the Yunlai Hotel reopened, Mrs. Chen felt that Chen Qiuniang was her own person, like her daughter, and a member of the Chen family, so it was necessary to know the existence of this secret passage, so after dinner one day, she quietly called her to the room and informed her about the secret passage.

Now that Mrs. Chen is not at home, Chen Qiuniang wants to go out in secret, and this secret passage just comes in handy.

Chen Qiuniang lit the oil lamp and entered the dark passage, and walked in the cold dark passage for a long time, only to feel that the dark passage kept going deeper, until she saw an underground river, and carefully went to the opposite bank from the stones on the underground river, and the trend of the tunnel went all the way up, and finally ushered in an exit. The exit was so narrow that it looked like it was naturally formed, and could only accommodate an extremely thin person to move out sideways.

Chen Qiuniang picked up the weeds and vines at the exit and squeezed them out of it. Only then did she realize that this so-called cave could only allow one person to come out sideways. She took a light and strong stick, carried the oil lamp and carefully moved out, and walked like this for about ten minutes before Chen Qiuniang saw the light. She immediately extinguished the oil lamp, placed it in a small crevice in the rock wall at the entrance of the cave, and carefully ripped open the vines at the entrance of the cave and walked out.

Walking out, Chen Qiuniang found that the exit of this cave was originally on a cliff, the mountain road was far away from here, and there was a path twenty or thirty meters below the cliff. The trees here are dense and deep, but they are extremely hidden, but they have to climb down, and they don't have ropes or digging tools, which is really sad.

Do you want to go back and get the tools? Chen Qiuniang stood at the entrance of the cave, hid her body in a weed, thought for a moment, took out the dagger in her arms, pulled the hanging vines, and began to dig where she stepped on. Fortunately, the mountains in this Shu are not like the mountains in other places, they are all stones, and the vegetation is like that of an old man. Shuzhong has abundant rainfall, not much sunlight, lush vegetation, and little soil erosion, so the surface layer of the mountain is still mostly soil.

Chen Qiuniang, who has been running in the mountains since she was a child, is familiar with things like stepping down the cliff. In a few moments, she descended to the mountain path. The path is overgrown with weeds, and there are probably not many people walking.

Chen Qiuniang took a wooden stick and beat the grass all the way, but she was still careful about the poisonous snakes that might be hidden. So, by the time she walked from the mountains to the stream next to the town wall outside Liuhe Town, it was noon. And her lotus-colored clothes are all mud, and her ponytail is slightly messy because of climbing holes. If you wipe your face and tear your clothes again, it's the standard little beggar's outfit.

Chen Qiuniang stuck out her tongue at the creek water, freshened up, drank a few sips of water, ate a steamed bun, and began to go to Liuhe Town. Liuhe Town is typical of sitting in the north and facing south, so this north gate is the gate into the mountain. Houshan is really not a famous mountain, and only the people in the town will go to worship the mountain god in various festivals. Therefore, the north gate has always been sparsely populated.

Chen Qiuniang swaggered in from the north gate, walked through the streets and alleys as much as possible, turned to the door of Zhang's mansion, knocked on the copper ring, and said to the gatekeeper: "I'm looking for Steward Wang." ”

She was very good, and the porter ran errands merrily. She was still expecting to meet Zhang Ci, and Steward Wang came to the door and asked, "Who?" ”

This steward Wang has never seen Chen Qiuniang. Because the first time I came to deliver the letter, it was Chai Yu who sent it. After that, Steward Wang never went to Liucun, let alone Zhuxi Mountain or anything.

"Hello, the little girl is here to deliver a letter for a son." Chen Qiuniang bowed slightly to Steward Wang.

Steward Wang looked at her suspiciously, and asked very vigilantly, "Give it to me?" Who is that childe? ”

Chen Qiuniang shook her head and said, "I am using people's money to do things for others, I don't know who that son is." However, he told him to see Steward Wang before he could take out the letter in person, and let Steward Wang personally transfer it to Zhang Ci and Zhang's second son. The prince said that this letter was related to the safety of the Zhang family, and it must not be handed over to unclear people, and Steward Wang was a person he trusted very much. ”

Chen Qiuniang made a fool of nonsense, but Steward Wang took it seriously, and asked the prince about his appearance. Chen Qiuniang described it nonsense again, and then said very pretendedly: "That son said, the second son naturally understood everything when he saw the letter." ”

Steward Wang was suspicious of the letter, and looked at Chen Qiuniang several times suspiciously, and was sure that this little girl did not look like she was lying, so she took the letter and went to the house.

Chen Qiuniang stood at the door, feeling apprehensive. She didn't know if Zhang Ci would come to see her as she expected when she wrote like that. After all, Zhang Ci sometimes plays cards too unreasonably. RS
