Chapter 5 Longing for Life
Chen Siye turned his eyes away with a little regret, and followed Qiu Ju into the kitchen, the kitchen was quite big, there were several pots on the stove, everything was available on the stove, firewood was piled up in the corner, and the wooden barrel he was going to bathe in was placed in another corner, steaming, it seemed that Qiu Ju had everything ready. Chen Siye asked: "Sister Qiu Ju, I see that there is everything in this kitchen, who usually cooks?" ”
Qiu Ju Qiu Ju Qiu Ju Crescent eyes were full of smiles, and said: "There used to be, Sister Le Xuan invited several cooks, but Sister Ming was tricky, and the food they cooked Sister Ming was difficult to swallow, but she only had a soft spot for the dishes of Zuixiaolou, so Sister Le Xuan quit a few cooks and ordered to go to Zuixiaolou every day to order." ”
Drunken Tower?! It's not the restaurant that let me go, hmph, I'll order food another day, and I must make that little two look good. But I don't know which one of the Ming families is, but now that I am proficient in cooking, I will take down the Ming family by another day. Chen Siye was lustful, and his face also showed joy, Qiu Ju looked strange, and said, "Wash up quickly, I'll help Xiaochan clean up your room." With that, he turned around and closed the door and left. Chen Siye regretted in his heart, this Qiu Ju didn't say anything about helping to take a bath or something.
The purpose of staying in Mingyue Tower was achieved, Chen Siye took off his clothes leisurely, threw aside a dead man's clothes in disgust, leaned over to the bathtub, stretched out his hand to test the water temperature, just right, and the reflection on the water surface was stinky, not to mention that it was really a sword eyebrow starry eye, a talent.
Humming and soaking in the bathtub, Chen Siye closed his eyes and asked the system in his mind: "System, how did you choose me?" He wondered how it worked.
The system replied, "It's random." This opportunity will randomly select a loser in life and take him to another world to help him reach the pinnacle of life in his mind. ”
Chen Siye was a little shocked, it turned out that he was just a loser, but no, although the salary was not small, he couldn't even afford a suite, and he was angry with the leadership all day long, and the most important thing was that he died young.
He asked a little disbelievingly, "Am I not a child of destiny?" Otherwise, what else are you doing this for? ”
“... You're thinking too much about it, and it's done to see how people from different worlds have a non-linear impact on the otherwise linear world. This unit is just a lonely observer of the world. ”
Chen Siye almost took the sentence that all this was the choice of the Gate of the Destiny Stone, and he asked again: "Then who made you, and who did you observe for you?" The system was silent, and Chen Siye felt a little bored.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Xiao Yezi, the clothes are out of the door for you." It should be Cuiyun, Chen Siye was about to agree, but when his mind turned around, he came up with a bad idea, and he said loudly: "Sister Cuiyun, please bring it into the house for me, don't worry, I'm in the bucket." ”
Cuiyun's ears were soft and she wouldn't refuse people, so she answered, covered her eyes with one hand and walked into the kitchen with her clothes in the other, and asked, "Where do you put your clothes?" ”
Chen Siye looked at Cuiyun's appearance and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and deliberately exaggerated and shouted: "Ah! There are rats! Sister Cuiyun, at your feet! Cuiyun was startled, jumped up with a scream, and didn't bother to cover her eyes, holding her clothes and looking for mice, until she saw the smile on Chen Siye's face, she didn't know that she had been deceived.
When Cuiyun saw his naked upper body, her face turned red with shame, and she was angry, smashed her clothes on him, and scolded: "Bad embryo! He turned and ran out of the kitchen.
Chen Siye hurriedly caught the clothes that were smashed over, and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't fall into the water.
Successfully teasing Cuiyun, Chen Siye smiled proudly, and after scrubbing, he slowly stood up and stepped out of the bathtub. Cuiyun is really careful, and has prepared a big towel, and will have to apologize to Cuiyun later. Cuiyun bought all kinds of clothes, underwear, jackets, coats, boots, everything. Changing clothes, Tsing Yi and a small hat, he took off the small hat, put up his hair in a bun, and then realized how he could tie his hair, and thought about it should be the credit of the ancient life skills. Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, although this body can't be on the table, but it is much stronger than beggar clothes, and the whole person is much refreshed.
Out of the door, Chen Siye turned around the front hall and backyard and didn't see a few women, he couldn't find anyone if he wanted to apologize, he should have gone upstairs, he couldn't go upstairs, there was no way to return to the backyard, found the room that Xiaochan and Qiu Ju cleaned up just now, and looked around the house, except for a bed and a small table and two stools, there was no other furniture, but the quilt was very thick, Chen Siye buried his head in the quilt, it was really happy, and he didn't have to experience the feeling of last night again. When he got to the bed, the sleepiness suddenly came flooding, and he didn't take off his clothes, he fell asleep under the covers.
In a daze, Chen Siye heard someone calling him, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out to be Qiu Ju standing by the door calling himself, "Wake up?" Come on, Cuiyun and Xiaochan will come back soon when they go shopping. I didn't call you to sleep soundly at noon, but you have to eat enough tonight. Chen Siye looked out the window, it was a little dark, and he got out of bed and said embarrassedly: "Sister Qiu Ju, I didn't sleep all night last night, I was too sleepy, I should have helped you work." ”
He walked to the table, beckoned Qiu Ju to sit down, and skillfully used the small clay stove on the table to cook tea for Qiu Ju, which Qiu Ju and the others had placed here in the morning. This kind of small tandoor is similar to the principle of fire folding, the charcoal placed in it can keep warm for a day when not in use, and it can also be heated quickly when used, as long as you pay attention to adding charcoal, you can always use it.
Qiu Ju watched him cook tea with a little surprise, Xu felt that he was just a little flower in the morning, and he would be able to cook tea so skillfully, not like the feeling of the same person. Chen Siye knew that this was also the credit of ancient life skills, and immediately felt that the system was very reliable. But of course, it doesn't come with a tea mastery, he just uses this set of things now.
He asked while making tea: "By the way, Sister Qiu Ju, why don't Sister Le Xuan and Sister Xiao Tao live here." Qiu Ju thought for a while: "Don't you know?" ”
Chen Siye wondered, what do you know? I've just arrived, okay? "I don't know." Qiu Ju asked again: "Do you know the identity of Sister Le Xuan?" "I don't know."
Qiu Ju glanced at him a little helplessly, "Then have you heard of Mingyue Tower before?" Do you know what kind of place Mingyue Tower is? ”
"I haven't heard of it, it's a Qinglou, right?"
Qiu Ju nodded and shook her head, and admonished: "Don't say this in front of Sister Le Xuan, Mingyue Tower is not Qinglou, Mingyue Tower is Mingyue Tower, this is my sister's original words." ”
Chen Siye nodded thoughtfully, this is not similar to the XX world and XX club in later generations, just a high-end place.
I heard Qiu Ju say with some pride: "But our Mingyue Building is different from the general Qinglou, not doing skin and meat business, although it is only open for three days a month, but everyone in Liangzhou knows about it, and even the dignitaries and nobles in the capital will also come here." ”
said and looked at Chen Siye suspiciously: "But you haven't heard of the name of Mingyue Tower..."At this time, Chen Siye was thinking, Mingyue Lou is not in the skin and meat business, isn't that just cheaper for himself, the building near the water gets the moon first, and dominates the beauty of Mingyue Tower, isn't it beautiful? And Mingyue Mansion is so famous for only three days a month, it is estimated that it is not only because of the girls of Mingyue Building, maybe it is the identity of the boss behind the scenes, Le Xuan, who can achieve this effect, otherwise it will not be able to open at all.
Hearing Qiu Ju's doubts, Chen Siye hurriedly told him about his fabricated life experience, Qiu Ju was relieved, and continued: "Although Sister Le Xuan is the shopkeeper of our Mingyue Building, she has another mansion and does not live here. However, on weekdays, Sister Le Xuan occasionally comes to discuss skills with the three of them and stays in Mingyue Tower. My sister has a seven-pronged exquisite heart, whether it is poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is proficient in everything, and she is kind-hearted, taking us sisters in and giving us a place to stay. Obviously, Qiu Ju admires Le Xuan very much, and she can't stop as soon as she opens the conversation.
"As for my sister's identity," Qiu Ju smiled mysteriously, "You'll know in the future." Chen Siye was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, and said a lot, but you don't say the most important thing.
Qiu Ju didn't give him a chance to ask again, and changed the topic: "By the way, the three of us in Mingyue Tower are all equipped with stunts, and Cuiyun and Xiaochan also have their own advantages. I saw you make a painting for Sister Le Xuan this morning, but I didn't see it clearly when I was a little far away, was it because you were good at painting Sister Le Xuan left you? ”
Chen Siye smiled proudly, the highlight moment came, and it was finally his turn to pretend, "That's nature, my paintings are unique and different, even Sister Le Xuan was shocked when she saw it." ”
It's a pity that Qiu Ju is not very cooperative, but said: "Everyone Lin is also good at Danqing, if you have the opportunity, you can discuss it." After a pause, he said, "You are lucky, it's good that Sister Le Xuan is here today, otherwise we would never dare to let you in." ”
Chen Siye also sighed again and again that he was lucky, and after a change of words, he asked, "I don't know what strengths each sister has?" Qiu Ju drank the tea in the cup, stood up and smiled: "You will know in the future." I'll go see if Cuiyun and they're back. Chen Siye said in his heart that it will be in the future, will you let me do it? also stood up to send her out, Qiu Ju didn't take two steps, as if she remembered something, she turned around, smiled and said: "By the way, the responsibility of boiling bath water every night in the future will be handed over to you~"
Looking at Qiu Ju's smile, Chen Siye didn't want to agree, and secretly said Don't say boil the bath water, I'm willing to help you take a bath. Qiu Ju left happily, and after Qiu Ju walked for a while, he realized that the work of boiling the bath water was probably not so easy. Alas, it has to be changed to see beautiful women, but it is just a brain problem.
Sitting back at the table and sipping tea slowly, the corners of Chen Siye's mouth hooked, the first day was so exciting, and he couldn't help but look forward to the future life in Mingyue Tower.
