Chapter 540: Rumors are not credible
What Lin Jinxiu didn't expect was that Zhu Hongyu agreed to her again without any reason.
"General, you really don't want to think about it again?"
"What's there to think about?" Zhu Hongyu ignored Lin Jinxiu and shouted outside, "Someone!" ”
With Zhu Hongyu's order, Ting Lan walked in from the door, and she was obviously stunned for a moment after seeing Lin Jinxiu.
"Tinglan, go and serve tea to Miss Lin." Zhu Hongyu's eyes were locked on Tinglan's body, and she didn't know what she was looking at, but after this look was on Tinglan, it actually made her tremble a little.
Today's generals seem to be different from those of the past.
Not only Tinglan, but even Lin Jinxiu felt a little strange.
Why did Zhu Hongyu always show himself in front of Tinglan today?
She always felt that Zhu Hongyu had to do something.
"Yes, General." Tinglan's movements were very slow, and she used almost all her thoughts to show that she didn't want to pour tea for Lin Jinxiu.
Fortunately, she was quite obedient, and she didn't get angry with Zhu Hongyu, but did it with a pale face, looking really pitiful.
"Tinglan." Zhu Hongyu said with a smile, "These Japanese generals have a very happy conversation with Miss Lin, and they want to hold a reception banquet for Miss Lin, I don't know what you think?" ”
Ting Lan's expression showed that she was very confused, but she still answered honestly: "It is rare for a general to find a confidant, and it is also appropriate to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Miss Lin." ”
Zhu Hongyu followed Ting Lan's words and said, "However, General Ben still has a little doubt. ”
"General, please." Tinglan's voice also trembled a little.
Zhu Hongyu looked at Lin Jinxiu: "According to legend, Miss Lin is a rare chef. Even though General Ben has many cooks around him to cook, I'm afraid that Miss Lin won't like the dishes made by these people......"
After that, Zhu Hongyu looked at Lin Jinxiu and blinked at her.
And Tinglan seemed to have some anticipation when he heard this.
The general laughed. Lin Jinxiu saluted, "If the general doesn't mind, take this opportunity to let me show my cooking skills in front of the general." ”
Zhu Hongyu shook his head: "How can this work?" It's obviously the reception banquet given to you by General Ben, how can you let Miss Lin cook it herself? ”
"I've always been a cook, and cooking is an honor for me."
Lin Jinxiu said politely: "As long as the general is willing to eat the dishes I cook, that is the general's biggest reward for me." ”
Zhu Hongyu opened his mouth as if he wanted to refute, but at this time Tinglan spoke: "General, seeing that Miss Lin is kind, it is better to follow her." ”
"I also want to try whether the food cooked by Miss Lin is as delicious as the legend."
Saying that, Tinglan also smiled at Lin Jinxiu, smiling so innocently and cutely, the sun was shining.
With Tinglan's persuasion, Zhu Hongyu was very helpless: "You, you're just a little gluttonous cat, okay, okay, then it's decided." ”
"General Ben will also be a handler and taste Miss Lin's craftsmanship."
"It's an honor." Lin Jinxiu saluted Zhu Hongyu again.
Until she went out, Lin Jinxiu had some strange feelings.
Today, it seems that Zhu Hongyu and Tinglan have been hinting at letting her cook a meal.
Could it be her previous rumors?
Lin Jinxiu was a little puzzled.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
In order to prevent being manipulated during the cooking, Lin Jinxiu contacted Xiao Xuanyan after returning and asked him to bring a few people to help him cook.
"You mean, General Zhu suddenly said that he wanted to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, and wanted you to cook for her?"
Lin Jinxiu nodded: "Yes, so you must use your own people this time, I'm afraid that someone will make trouble." ”
"Okay." Xiao Xuanyan agreed, "When the time comes, the brothers will help you." ”
Two days later.
Zhu Hongyu did not invite other people to the banquet this time, but only the closest lieutenants around her were with Lin Jinxiu, such as Gao Changjun.
Lin Jinxiu prepared a good meal for this meal, took out the most popular dishes when she opened the store at that time, and made them well.
Although she always felt a little weird in her heart, at least she cooked this meal very smoothly.
After the meal was almost ready, Lin Jinxiu was about to call someone else to serve the food, when he saw Ting Lan walking slowly towards him.
"Miss Lin, let me serve this dish." Tinglan walked to Lin Jinxiu's side and went to pick up a plate of shredded potatoes in her hand.
Lin Jinxiu glanced at the girl in front of her twice, then looked at the dish in her hand, and remembered that this dish could not be poisoned, so she casually handed the dish to Tinglan: "Give it." ”
Ting Lan didn't expect it to be so easy, after bringing the food out of the tent, she found a place where no one was, took out the small paper bag that Gu Ye gave her, and prepared to pour it into the dish.
Who knows, the moment the white powder touches the dish, it actually starts to foam violently as if boiling water, and the amount is getting more and more, and there is no intention to stop at all.
Tinglan was startled, and the plate in his hand was directly pressed to the ground and shattered into several pieces.
"What's going on?" Tinglan didn't expect such a situation at all, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly went to find cleaning tools to clean up the mess on the ground.
She didn't know that Lin Jinxiu's ingredients were special ingredients that couldn't be poisoned, and she thought that the way she drugged them was wrong, and she wasted some of them in vain.
In the process of Tinglan cleaning up, Lin Jinxiu heard the cracking sound outside, and hurriedly finished the things at hand and went out to check.
"I'm sorry, Miss Lin." Tinglan bit her lip and said, "It's me who is clumsy, please forgive me." ”
"Forehead......" Lin Jinxiu squinted her eyes at the meal she was packing, and found that the meal seemed to be foaming at the mouth.
White foam?
Isn't that a sign that something strange has been put in the dish?
Lin Jinxiu was stunned for a moment, although she knew that Tinglan wanted to pit herself, but this time the person who ate at the dinner table was Zhu Hongyu!
Could it be that Tinglan can guarantee that Zhu Hongyu will not eat this drugged dish?
Or is her hatred for herself to the point where she can even ignore hurting Zhu Hongyu for the time being?
Lin Jinxiu really didn't dare to think about it: "It's okay, this thing is easier to make, I'll just fry another plate." ”
"Thank you, Miss Lin." Tinglan hurriedly stood up and walked in the direction of no one on the side, as if trying to cover something.
This time, Lin Jinxiu had a little more heart, followed Tinglan together, and finally saw her come to the place where the wine was stored.
There were two small servants inside, who were preparing the wine to be drunk at today's banquet, and Ting Lan walked in: "You guys go to the kitchen to help first, and leave it to me here." ”
After the two little guys were sent away by Ting Lan, Ting Lan took the wine jug on the table and shook all the remaining medicinal powder in the paper bag.
This scene was seen by Lin Jinxiu, who was following behind.
Lin Jinxiu's eyebrows were twisted together.
Tinglan seems to have gone completely insane.
"I'll give you one last chance." After identifying which one of the jugs containing the wine had been drugged, Lin Jinxiu turned around and returned to the kitchen to make the final touches on the feast.
Since Lin Jinxiu was also one of the guests, Zhu Hongyu and his lieutenants did not pick up chopsticks, but waited for Lin Jinxiu's arrival.
These lieutenant generals are in a complicated mood, unlike Zhu Hongyu, who is full of thinking only about training all day long, they have a lot of work in Xianglin City, and they have heard a lot of rumors.
The girl she was going to feast on today, according to the rumors they heard, was no different from the previous Tinglan.
Their own general wanted to entertain such a person and let her cook by herself, and they felt a little uncomfortable.
The most important thing is that this person also made some moths in the wounded man's kitchen a few days ago, which is really unconvincing.
"General, have you really thought about it?" Gao Changjun is still one of these people who has a better impression of Lin Jinxiu,
"Now Miss Lin's situation is continuous, if you rashly believe it, I'm afraid you won't be able to convince the public."
Zhu Hongyu glanced at him coldly: "Is it true that General Ben has never heard of those rumors?" ”
The lieutenant generals looked at each other, since the general knew this, why didn't he make the due judgment?
"People who know these rumors well and ignore them are either upright and unslanted, or their skin is hopelessly thick."
Zhu Hongyu glanced at the door, but Lin Jinxiu did not arrive.
"Rumors are rumors after all." Her knuckles tapped lightly on the edge of the table, "You all think the rumors are true, but have you ever seen it with your own eyes?" ”
"If the rumors are false, have you not wronged good people in this way?"
All the adjutant generals lowered their heads one after another: "What the general said is extremely true. ”
Zhu Hongyu sneered: "This kind of practice, when General Ben was still an ordinary soldier, he had seen it countless times. ”
It is very common for an excellent woman to be criticized in the process of growing up, and Lin Jinxiu is also the second person she has seen in her life to encounter such a situation.
And Lin Jinxiu's response was obviously much more mature than she was at that time.
With Zhu Hongyu's deterrence, those lieutenant generals never said anything about Lin Jinxiu anymore, but turned their attention to recent events and began to report to Zhu Hongyu.
Zhu Hongyu nodded while listening, and made some comments from time to time, but her eyes were full of boredom.
On weekdays, these men talk about wine, women, and children at home, and none of these topics are what Zhu Hongyu wants to participate in.
She didn't have a family, let alone a woman to talk about? That in itself was a disrespect to her.
Even this habit of drinking was forcibly learned by Zhu Hongyu in order to have something to say to these men, but she didn't expect that by now, she has a little addiction to alcohol.
"General, the last dish has been served."
The little guy outside reported: "Miss Lin said that she went to change her clothes and would come right away." ”
"Okay." Zhu Hongyu said that he knew.
Tinglan walked in with warm wine and filled it up for Zhu Hongyu and the lieutenants.
"Tinglan, are you not feeling well? The face is so pale. ”
Zhu Hongyu's voice appeared in Tinglan's ears, Tinglan was slightly startled, and forced a smile: "No, general, Tinglan is fine." ”
