Chapter Twenty-Three: The Peach Blossom Fairy from the South, Asking the Male with a Horizontal Hoe

Autumn has arrived, and the yellow leaves are in season, but the three-hundred-year-old peach tree in the courtyard of Le Bu Si has inexplicably bloomed a new flower. The tree has been growing for a long time, and its roots are unusually thick and thick. The dry plate is empty, and the branches stretch horizontally, which is very imposing. Five adults still have half a foot to hug together.

Peach blossoms bloom in autumn, things are unusual, and there must be strangeness.

The people who lived in Le Busi talked a lot, and some said that it was a bad omen, and Li Le immediately cut down the big tree. It is said that this is an auspicious omen, and it is believed that the ancient tree has a spirit and will bloom in this season, indicating that there will be a happy event in this yard.

In the evening of this day, Fan Qinghui stood under the tree, looked at it stupidly, sighed faintly, and whispered: "He still came, I don't know if you will regret not choosing to cooperate with me after seeing him?" ”

Li Le sat five meters away from her and heard very clearly. But I don't know what the old peach tree has to do with the person she said, why did she say this inexplicable thing after seeing this peach blossom?

Fan Qinghui suddenly turned around, looked at Li Le, and said, "I probably have to go back, grandma was very disappointed in your choice, and sent someone else, although this person is a little annoying, but it is really powerful, you have to be careful." ”

Li Le said: "If you suddenly propose to leave to hide from this person, I don't think it's necessary." As he spoke, he set his eyes on the long street outside the gate.

A young man carrying a hoe with a silver handle and a gold head was walking slowly in this direction. Fan Qinghui looked back, and her eyebrows couldn't help frowning together.

"Peach blossom nunnery in Peach Blossom Dock, peach blossom fairy under peach blossom nunnery. The peach blossom fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms for wine money. When you wake up, you only sit in front of the flowers, and when you are drunk, you come to sleep with the flowers. Half-drunk and half-awake day after day, the flowers fall and bloom year after year. I hope that the old and dead spend the wine, and I don't want to bow in front of the carriage and horse 616161616161 the world laughs at me for being too crazy, and I laugh at others who can't see through it. I don't see the tomb of Wuling heroes, and there are no flowers and no wine hoeing fields. ”

Young people walk in poetry, full of ancient style, so chic. Li Le looked at this person carefully, and saw that his long eyebrows were colorful, his eyes were like stars, his nose was like a gall, and his mouth was like a cow. The body is swaying, soft and rigid. The upper body is a Korean pink suit, the lower body is wearing a pair of beige close-fitting stilt pants, and a pair of white cloth shoes are on the feet. It looks refreshing and healthy.

Yan Xiaowu and Li Yuhan were reading a book under the porch, and when they heard the singing, they couldn't help but admire, "This man is really weird." ”

Li Yuhan frowned slightly, and said: "This guy looks more delicate than Su Xiafei, and he was compared to a man, I really feel sorry for you, little fifth sister." ”

Yan Xiaowu immediately became furious and said, "I don't like this kind of sissy who walks the way of our women and makes us women have no way out." ”

Li Le looked at the young man with a solemn expression.

"I'm here to smash the sign." The young man stepped into the door, put down the silver hoe in his hand, looked at Li Le, and said calmly: "I have heard for a long time that the golden signboard of the Li family in Taihang Building is famous in the North China kitchen world, I want to come and see where it is." He glanced at Fan Qinghui, who looked unhappy next to him, smiled slightly, and said: "Don't tell me that you are not a person in this industry, someone can praise your cooking skills a few days ago, and if you refuse to show your hand today, I will treat you as a despise me." ”

"Why is this tree blooming at this time?" Li Le was noncommittal to the young man's words, but pointed to the big tree in the courtyard and said: "The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom. ”

The young man smiled and said: "To put it bluntly, it's not worth a penny, but it is a little long-growing medicine to change the biological clock of this tree, I was born under the peach tree, I love peach blossoms in my life, and there must be peach blossoms to help me play every big event. ”

This hobby is much more elegant than the hobby of Bao Dejin.

Li Le smiled indifferently and said, "I haven't asked my brother for his name." ”

The young man hugged his fists and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Just about to report his name, Fan Qinghui on the side suddenly said first: "He is my brother, called Fan Taohua." ”

"We are brothers and sisters." Fan Taohua corrected: "Xiaohui and I are both orphans adopted by our grandmother, called brother and sister, but we are not related by blood. ”

"Fan Peach Blossom, Peach Blossom?" Li Le muttered this strange name in his mouth, and wanted to laugh a little, this second grandmother is really as Bao Rilong said, she hasn't studied for a few days, and she can name her child whatever she sees.

Fan Qinghui looked displeased: "Come here, do whatever you have to do, I want to get these useless planes first, what if there is no peach tree in this yard?" ”

"Then I'll move one from somewhere else." Fan Taohua shook her head and said: "Although the north is not as good as the South Sea, and the four seasons are in bloom, but on such a special day today, how can there be no peach blossoms to help the fun?" What's more, your brother and my peach blossom banquet are inseparable from peach blossoms. ”

"You're studying white cases?" Li Le noticed that he had split the silver hoe in his hand in two as he spoke, the handle of the hoe was round like a rolling pin, and the hoe was like a knife for shaving noodles.

"How?" Fan Taohua looked at Li Le with a slight tilted chin, and said: "Taihang Tower is known as the Three Uniques, Tiangong Table, Li Family Knife, Hetao White Side Signboard, this white case work is your Li family's top card, shouldn't you?" ”

Li Le naturally will, but he can only call it will, and he will never be able to support the name of Li Jiabai's case. Li Le looked at the silver rolling pin in his hand, that thing was made of sterling silver, weighing at least thirty catties, but Fan Taohua was weightless in his hand, it was obvious that he had put a lot of hard work into this stick. But white cases have never been his forte.

"Why do I have to compete with you?"

Fan Taohua didn't answer directly, but looked around, his eyes fixed on Yan Xiaowu and Fan Qinghui's faces for a moment, and said with a smile: "In front of two girls who are so beautiful and have deep confidence in you, are you embarrassed to admit it and say no?" ”

Li Le touched his nose, bowed his head and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I've always been very cowardly." As he spoke, he ignored Yan Xiaowu's disdainful gaze and Fan Qinghui's surprised eyes, and turned around and went back to his room.

Fan Taohua was stunned in place, looked left and right, and finally raised his head and waved at Yan Xiaowu and smiled, and said: "Hi, beauty, my name is Fan Taohua, the time is not right today, I must invite you to eat the peach blossom cake I made if I have a chance another day." ”

Yan Xiaowu ignored him, but Li Yuhan on the side shouted: "Hey, that one is called a peach blossom, aren't you here to smash the signboard?" ”

Fan Taohua looked up when she heard the voice, saw that it was a young girl, and guessed: "You are Li Qianjun's old girl?" ”

Li Yuhan said: "You came prepared, you know who I am, but unfortunately you mistook Li Le, you want to smash the signboard of Taihang Tower, such a crepe challenge will definitely not work, that guy doesn't care about the three hundred years of fame of Taihang Tower, I want him to compete with you, unless you 616161616161" The little aunt spoke.

"Unless what?" Fan Taohua actually asked with a pretentious question.

Li Yuhan said: "Unless you stay and make me a peach blossom feast of yours, I will tell you how to force him to compete with you." ”

Fan Taohua blinked and said, "Do you want to lure me to show my strength to Li Le?" ”

Li Yuhan said gloomily: "I just want to taste the best pasta in the world again, but since my father fell ill, I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I don't know if you have that strength." ”

The little girl's eyebrows are picturesque, her complexion is like porcelain, innocent and simple, and I feel sorry for her.

Fan Taohua's expression instantly froze, his face was peach-colored, and he waved the bright silver stick in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll make a peach blossom mat, so as not to disappoint this peach blossom." With that, he swung the silver stick in his hand and smashed it on the trunk of the old peach tree. The petals were shaken off like a crimson rain.

Under the peach blossom tree, Fan Taohua used the silver pestle in his hand to pound a jar of peach blossoms into peach blossom sauce and mix it into the basin. As soon as the silver stick was scooped up, the whole dough was scooped up from the basin. Pulling, pulling, kneading, twisting, the action is coherent and chic and free. And the dough never fell into the pot. The technique is exquisite, and the skill is not enough to describe its hundred and one.

The stone stood beside Li Le with his shoulders crossed, looking out of the window.

Li Le said: "How? Are you sure to win him? ”

There is a way to see the leopard in the tube, and the face is the basic skill of the white case, although Fan Taohua only showed this hand, it is not difficult to see that his strength in the white case is amazing. Shi Shi looked at Fan Taohua, who was waving the snow in the yard, and shook his head honestly, "His face case skills have been perfected, and he is only above me." ”

Li Le nodded and said: "The old man said that the first thing to do a good job in a white case is to learn to choose noodles, what kind of noodles are needed to do anything, there is a lot of knowledge here, but this Fan Taohua is unique, using several kinds of noodles to mix together, what is the reason?" ”

Shi said solemnly: "This is called mixed noodles, with large fiber rough noodles mixed with three dustpans of fine noodles, as long as the proportion is appropriate, you can improve the gluten of the pasta without reducing the taste, it is a very difficult skill to master, and he used at least six kinds of noodles just now, this table of peach blossom mat is really not simple." ”

Li Le said: "People are here to smash the signboard, and this battle can't be avoided." After a pause, he said: "It is very valuable for my little aunt to help you fight for this opportunity, you must observe carefully, and know yourself and your opponent first." ”

Shi was a little annoyed: "I don't understand why these people refuse to let us go?" ”

Li Le never told him about the relationship between Yipinju and Taihang Tower, mainly because Li Le was not ready to tell him the truth about his background. If you tell Bao Rilong's words to the stone, the stone will inevitably ask about the relationship between Bao Rilong and Taihang Tower. After the incident in front of the Taihang Tower last time, Shi had already developed a great curiosity about the Mongolian prince, and Li Le did not want him to get involved in this matter at this time.

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, as long as there are interests, there will inevitably be disputes." Li Le pretended to be a little deep: "Yipinju's goal is the high-end catering market in the entire North China, merging or overthrowing Taihanglou, can help them establish a prestige, the last time Sandoujin lost a while with me in the knife work here, although later we changed the restaurant to a hotel, but for Yipinju, if the signboard of Taihanglou cannot be used by them, it must be completely stepped on, so this time people are eyeing Taihanglou when they were in the kitchen world, erecting a signboard of pasta." ”

Shi was convinced of Li Le's words, and said with his forehead: "I understand, although our restaurant is closed, but the noodle restaurant is still there, Taihang Lou is still there, your cooking skills are better than three buckets of gold, even if we change the hotel, they still can't rest assured of us, and they have to borrow the sign of Taihang Lou to make a name for themselves!" ”

"A few days ago, Fan Qinghui went to Le Busi to rent a house." Li Le pointed out the window and said, "Do you think about how many luxury suites there are over there in Chunfeng Mansion that are not enough for her to live in?" Do you want to run to our small pigeon cage of more than ten square meters? Isn't it for the golden sign of Taihang Tower? ”

Stone nodded and mumbled.

Li Le continued: "Yipinju's wishful thinking is to let her be responsible for singing white face, and she intends to swallow us in a cooperative way, but I saw through it, I guess she is afraid of being punished because she can't complete the task, so she stays here and doesn't leave, and now I'm in a hurry, and this is sending a Fan Taohua, running here to sing red face, do you think we can let them succeed?" The most cherished thing in the old man's life is Taihang Building, he handed over this foundation to our brothers, because of some objective reasons failed to carry it forward, how can people smash the three hundred years of signboards? ”

The stone glared angrily at the Fanhua Peach Blossom outside, slammed his fist on the windowsill, his expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Le, I understand, give me three days, and I will definitely let this flower mallet come back empty-handed!" ”
