The carriage of Yicaotang sent Ai Qiaoqiao back.

I thought that the carriage would return to the city after sending her home, but the coachman actually stayed.

"The son has ordered, the little one will be here to listen to the orders of the Qiaoqiao girl, the girl doesn't need to pay me, there is my share every month in Yicaotang, the girl only needs to take care of some food every day, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't expect that Ye Liyu would be so thoughtful.

With the carriage, it will be convenient for her to go anywhere in the future.

Besides, this is the carriage of Yicaotang, which is very spacious and comfortable to sit on, which is 10,000 times more comfortable than the flatbed car of the farmer's house.

Ai Qiaoqiao thanked the coachman, but the driver took a step back.

"Miss Qiaoqiao is polite, this is all the son's order."

The coachman still lives in the old ear room, and he is a little sad to hear the wind and rain and know that the night is gone.

Ai Qiaoqiao's mood was also inexplicably not good, so that no one ate much of the meal that night.

For a few days, Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't keep his spirits up.

The fresh shrimp she deliberately left for the night left behind did not come in handy in the end, she wrapped the fresh shrimp soup dumplings and invited Zhang Wu and Brother Wen to taste them.

They were full of praise for eating, but Ai Qiaoqiao didn't feel happy.

It's really strange, why is she so happy to get the praise of the night away?

Even she couldn't figure it out herself, could it be ...... Unconsciously, she already cared so much about him?

It's not good, it's not good.

Ai Qiaoqiao secretly slapped her cheek.

Ye Lixian is a miracle doctor, even if she really likes him, there will be no results, it is better to give up this unrealistic idea quickly.

Although she thought so in her heart, she still carefully put away the green jade hairpin he gave her.

She is not yet old enough to wear this kind of hairpin.

I don't know when he will be back, he said that it will be half a year at most...... It seems that he will be able to come back before she can reach her.

By then, his wrist should be healed.

In addition to the tables and chairs, Zhang Wu's father also proposed to build a shed, so that if it rains and winds or something, it will not get wet in the rain.

Ai Qiaoqiao agreed.

So they spent two more days figuring out how to build a shed.

This morning, Master Daifuku's people came to Xiaofang Village.

"Master Daifuku asked Miss Qiaoqiao to help cook a few dishes." The visitor was very polite and brought a carriage.

Ai Qiaoqiao did not take the other party's car, but took the carriage of Yicaotang that Ye Lili left for her.

Master Dafu's mansion is in an inconspicuous little corner in the south of Huai'an City, and it is impossible to see from the outside that the owner of this house is anything special.

Green bricks and green tiles, quiet courtyard.

Chef Daifuku asked Ai Qiaoqiao to be brought to the kitchen and asked her to stir-fry a few dishes at will with the existing ingredients.

Ai Qiaoqiao looked at the ingredients and found that they were all seafood-based ingredients.

Looks like he's deliberately giving her a problem.

Usually only the chefs who rely on the sea are the best at handling seafood ingredients, and most of the restaurants here in Huai'an City sell some river fish dishes, even shrimp are mostly river shrimp.

In Master Daifuku's kitchen, she saw a basket of shrimp, as well as some clams and scallops.

Ai Qiaoqiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Fortunately, her father taught her a lot of seafood dishes, otherwise she would have been dumbfounded today.

She first stir-fried some shrimp oil in the pot, put it out when the shrimp turned red, put in the garlic cloves to stir-fry until fragrant, and then added Sichuan peppercorns to stir-fry until the red oil was stir-fried.

She washed the celery, removed the leaves, cut them into small pieces, then poured the celery into the pot and stir-fried, and finally added the shrimp that had already been fried red, soy sauce, rice wine, old vinegar, and a large spoon of sugar.

Before coming out of the pot, she sprinkled a large handful of white sesame seeds.

"What is this?" Master Daifuku examines this plate of fried shrimp.

"Spicy shrimp in a dry pot." Ai Qiaoqiao said proudly.

She was quite confident in this dish, and even her father praised her for the deliciousness of the dish.

"It's a pity that the quality of your watercress here is not good, otherwise it would be more delicious."

Listening to Ai Qiaoqiao's complaint, Master Dafu laughed.

"It seems that this girl of yours is a person who understands, and the ingredients used for the food are also very important, no matter how fresh the food is, if you encounter a bad raw hand, you can also spoil it."

Ai Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and smiled.

She knew that Master Daifuku was reminding her, so she listened quietly.

Chef Daifuku tried two more dishes she cooked: spicy stir-fried clams and steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli.

The heat of the clams fried is just right, the meat is delicate, the taste is delicious, and the other dish looks good, Master Daifuku took the scallop shell and looked at it carefully, and said for a while: "Who did you learn these dishes from?" ”

"My dad." Ai Qiaoqiao made no secret that no one was born to cook, and she was quite proud of having such a father.

Sensing the pride in Ai Qiaoqiao's tone, Master Daifuku looked up at her again.

"What did your father do?"

"Chef."

"What restaurant do you work in?"

"He opened his own tavern." Thinking of the happy days at the beginning, Ai Qiaoqiao's face was full of happiness that was difficult to hide.

"Can you surpass your father in your craft?"

Ai Qiaoqiao shook her head, "I'm thankful that what I made was half as delicious as him." ”

Master Daifuku was slightly surprised, "With such craftsmanship, why doesn't he go to the restaurant to do things?" ”

Ai Qiaoqiao smiled.

"Because he wants to stay with me and my mother."

A trace of puzzlement flashed in Master Daifuku's eyes.

"My father loves my mother very much, and he never let her cook, saying that women will grow old quickly when they are smoked by the kitchen fumes, and they will not be beautiful."

Master Daifuku smiled, "Then why did you also learn this hand?" ”

"Because I like it." Ai Qiaoqiao chuckled, "I still learned it secretly, I had already learned when my father knew, and he was reluctant to beat me, so he could only let me." ”

"You're not afraid of getting old fast?"

Ai Qiaoqiao raised her eyebrows, "If I can't eat delicious food, I'll age quickly." ”

Master Daifuku laughed loudly, and coughed at the end of the laugh.

"Interesting girl, I will definitely meet your father when I have the chance."

"It's a pity that I can't see it." Ai Qiaoqiao lowered her head.

"What's going on?"

"My dad is no longer alive." Ai Qiaoqiao simply told them about their family.

Master Daifuku was speechless for a long time.

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't speak, and stood there silently, with her head down.

"The Night Doctor is really cunning." Master Dafu suddenly chuckled, "I see, he left Huai'an City, so he handed you over to me." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao said uneasily, "Ye Gongzi doesn't mean anything else, he just wants to help me ......"

Master Dafu raised his hand, and Ai Qiaoqiao had no choice but to shut up.

The old man really had a strange temperament, and he was smiling just now, but he blushed and didn't speak.

There was no one to serve in the courtyard, and when the old man was drinking, Ai Qiaoqiao stepped forward to help pour the wine.

The meal was about to run out, when a strange man suddenly walked in from outside the door.

Master Dafu raised his head and looked at the other party, his face was calm: "Who are you?" ”

Ai Qiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, obviously this person was not a descendant of Master Dafu's family, seeing that he was wearing a plain robe, with a light smile: "You are Master Dafu, I came here, just now I saw the courtyard door open, so I rushed in, I hope you don't be surprised." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao looked at the man, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt a little uneasy somewhere in her heart.
