154. Are you crazy?
Liu Jiaojiao didn't encounter any trouble when she came to Xie Ping'an, she was going to ask him something about the Xie family, there were many people in the store, and it was not as safe as the government here, so she deliberately went this way.
As soon as Xie Ping'an entered the study, he immediately asked worriedly and eagerly: "Jiaojiao, why did you come here early in the morning?" Is something wrong? "This is his x'x jurisdiction, who eats the courage of a leopard dares to bully his cousin, when he doesn't exist, right?
Liu Jiaojiao lifted the white veil on her hat, revealing her alluring appearance, and said with a smile: "What? Do I have to have something to do to find you? β
Although he really didn't have any thoughts about this cousin in his heart, every time he saw this extremely beautiful face that was not like a mortal, Xie Ping'an still inevitably felt a little fluttering.
Without him, it is purely an innate appreciation and love for beautiful things.
Xie Ping'an hurriedly lowered his head, coughed lightly twice with a little embarrassment, tried his best to suppress the inexplicable throbbing in his heart, and then raised his head again, his expression had returned to normal, and replied with a smile: "As long as you are willing, my door here is always open for you." β
Liu Jiaojiao knew that he was telling the truth, and she no longer deliberately joked, so she restrained her smile and asked a little seriously, "Did my cousin ever inform my family of my existence?" β
"No, I can see that you seem to be resisting, so I'm going to tell my family when you want to."
"Then please ask my cousin to talk about it later, but it's not that I'm resistant to this matter, it's that I need time to do something."
"Do something? Is there anything I need help with? β
Liu Jiaojiao thought about it, but decided to tell him something, so that he had a bottom in his heart, so he said: "I plan to take people to the capital after a while, open Qingxinfang, and after I have some connections in my reputation, you will inform my family of my existence." β
Xie Ping'an is such a smart person, after a little thought, he understood what she meant, and looked at her with a little appreciation, and said with a smile: "It seems that my cousin is preparing to hit some people by surprise." β
"No way, who made me just a powerless little girl?" Liu Jiaojiao shrugged helplessly, but there was no hint of self-suffering on her face, and a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes as black as pearls.
Xie Ping'an couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, and he wanted to reach out to rub a handful of the little girl's hair, but considering that the two parties had just recognized each other after all, they were not familiar with it to that point, so they had to suppress the impulse, and the gaze that looked at the little girl was faintly doting.
"Okay, do whatever you want, if you lack money or manpower, just ask." Xie Ping'an promised boldly.
Liu Jiaojiao shook her head, "I can't use your money and manpower, after all, the people in the capital are too familiar with you, if you have anything to do with you, it is difficult to ensure that you will not be tracked down." β
Xie Ping'an frowned, but he had to admit that his cousin was very reasonable, after all, the capital is so big, although there are many powerful families, but who doesn't have a few spies? No matter how careful you are, it is difficult to ensure that you will not be caught, and it is better to attract the investigation of your own family, but if you attract Xu Tianci and those political enemies of the Xie family, it will be troublesome.
"In different towns in the capital, if there is no powerful person behind it, no matter how good the dishes of Qingxinfang are, they will not be able to escape the calculations and suppression of others." He said worriedly.
Liu Jiaojiao took out a jade pendant from the purse hanging from her waist, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "What do you think of my helper?" β
Xie Ping'an took the jade pendant with one hand, and after careful observation, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "Prince Yu Pei? Three Princes?! β
There are several princes under the knees of the emperor today, but the dragon pattern of the jade pendant of the prince of each dynasty is different, this kind of dragon pendant is only available to the prince of the previous emperor, and there are only two remaining princes of the previous emperor, one is the current son of heaven, and the other is the three princes who never pay attention to the government.
Although this prince has no intention of going to court, after all, he is the only younger brother of the emperor, whether it is because of blood or for the title of a Ming Jun, the emperor has always pampered him, even if he causes any trouble, he will turn a blind eye, pick it up high, and put it down gently.
The mother of the third prince has passed away a long time ago, but his grandfather's family is extremely rich, and he takes this grandson very seriously, and he can be said to give whatever he wants.
The emperor spoiled him, his grandfather protected him, and he was not short of power or money, so he had always been unscrupulous in the capital, and no one dared to mess with him.
Fortunately, he really just wants to be a gentleman, he has no other interests except for food, and he has never paid much attention to what the emperor has arranged for him to do.
However, how did the cousin in this remote town know the current three princes? And the other party even gave her the jade pendant that represented her identity?
Seeing Xie Ping'an's doubts, Liu Jiaojiao explained with a smile: "It's also luck, the third prince once came to the town, and by chance I was his cook for a while, so he left this jade pendant when he left, so that I could find him if I went to the capital in the future." β
Xie Ping'an was amazed, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Everyone in the capital knows that the third prince has good food, it's not that no one has ever thought of using food to get close to him, and some people even spend a high price to entrust the relationship and invite the most powerful celebrity chef to help, but they have never succeeded." I really didn't expect that you would succeed in something that so many people couldn't do. β
Liu Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows indifferently and said, "Because I'm better than them!" β
"Poof......" It was the first time to see his cousin's arrogant and conceited appearance, Xie Ping'an couldn't help laughing, and then nodded in agreement, "Yes, you're right, that's the reason!" β
"You say, can my helper help Qingxinfang open up the situation in the capital?"
"Yes! As long as the third prince is willing to help, unless the emperor makes a move, no one will dare to suppress you! β
Liu Jiaojiao was immediately satisfied.
At first, she was actually not very happy to accept this jade pendant, thinking that she should try to avoid too deep contact with the people in the royal family, so as not to be involved in those messy struggles, but she didn't expect that now she has to participate in the troubled waters of the capital.
She has never been a naΓ―ve person, and she will not think that she will only start the house fight script when she goes to the capital, and the grievances between the Xie family and Xu Tianci have already involved the dispute between the court. Since she wants to destroy Xu Tianci, she must first help the Xie family up again, which will inevitably anger the people behind him, and even anger the person who is on the throne.
The struggle for power is never a simple matter, and there will be many people and things involved, just as marriage is not a matter of two people, but will be related to two families and all relatives and friends around them.
This is the whole body that moves with one hair.
Liu Jiaojiao had a headache and wanted to scold the system for a few words.
From the medicine collection mode to the kitchen god mode, the house fight and the conspiracy mode will be opened soon, and it may even be possible to open the palace fight mode, the system adult, you are not willing to pit this girl to death, right?
γDrip ...... Congratulations to the host for comprehending all the modes of the system by themselves, and a copy of the curse book will be rewarded, and the prizes have been distributed to the space, please remember to receive them. γ
Liu Jiaojiao: "......" If it weren't for the fact that she was controlled by you, this girl would have been destroyed every second, do you believe it or not?
What the hell is it to comprehend all the patterns on your own? What the hell is the rewarded curse book?
No, isn't it a reward? Can this kind of thing that destroys the three views and has no lower limit be regarded as a reward?
System-sama, are you crazy? Or do you want to take me for a fool?
But despite her continuous complaints in her heart, the system didn't reply to her a word, and I don't know if she didn't want to talk to her at all, or was stimulated by her complaints and didn't want to speak.
In Xie Ping'an's opinion, his little cousin didn't know why she suddenly became sluggish, could it be that what he said just now was too shocking and scared her?
Carefully recalled what he said, he frowned slightly, he didn't feel that he had said anything shocking, how could his little cousin react like this?
Perhaps, it was the power of the third prince that exceeded her imagination and scared her?
Well, it must be.
Although the little cousin is very smart and powerful, after all, she grew up in a remote place, surrounded by ordinary people, and has not really experienced what power brings, so it is no wonder that she will be scared.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly comforted him softly: "Jiaojiao, don't be afraid, the third prince is actually very easy to get along with, as long as you can satisfy his appetite, no matter how big the trouble is, he can help you solve it." You just need to keep your position as a cook in front of him, and you don't need to worry about anything else. β
Hearing his words, Liu Jiaojiao came back to her senses, knowing that he had misunderstood, but she couldn't explain it, so she had to reluctantly return a smile, but in Xie Ping'an's eyes, she thought she was smiling helplessly, and immediately felt guilty that she had said the wrong thing, and she wished that she would go back in time and say it again.
Looking at the sky outside the window, it was almost time to open the store, Liu Jiaojiao got up and went back to the restaurant, and before leaving, if he wanted to eat the mashed fish, he sent someone to say it in advance, not counting the five servings that were sold every day.
Xie Ping'an's mouth almost reached the root of his ears when he heard this, and he personally sent his little cousin out, and specially arranged for two yamen to escort her back to the restaurant.
He didn't know Liu Jiaojiao's skills, the group of White Lotus Sect members who were captured that day had already been gagged by Liu Jun's thoughts, so the people outside, including those in the yamen, thought that it was many people from Qingxinfang who worked together to take down that group of thieves that day.
It was precisely because he didn't know that he could rest assured that his little cousin would go so far alone with such a flowery girl? The little cousin's fairy-like and extraordinary temperament, even if she wears a thick hat, she can't stop it, what if she meets a bad guy? He wasn't at ease.
It's also a coincidence, there happened to be Du Ming, Liu Jiaojiao's number one fan brother, among the two yacha he arranged, so along the way, there were all kinds of dedication and rainbow farts, and the other yacha was about to be soured after hearing it.
"Little owner, you haven't decided to marry your brother yet, right?" After a long day of dedication, he finally got to the point.
No one expected that this man, who prides himself on only appreciating all kinds of beauties and resolutely will not get married, would fall in love with the girl Zhaodi.
After following Liu Jiaojiao for two years, the original assertive Zhao brother has become more and more powerful, although he is only fifteen, there is already a faint shadow of a strong woman on his body.
Especially after Liu Jiaojiao began to teach her to mix all kinds of cold drinks, she made a vow that she would not make her own career to resolutely not marry, and made her mother Song Chunhua angry, if it wasn't for Lao Li Tou to help her speak, maybe she would immediately find her in-laws to force her to marry.
Liu Jiaojiao heard Brother Zhao complain that Du Ming always bothered her, but she didn't expect this product to take a fancy to her, and asked with a little curiosity: "What about marriage?" What if you don't get married? β
"If she marries me, I will die of this heart, and I only wish her a safe and smooth life in the future; If you don't get married, please ask the little owner to help match the match, I swear, I will not fail her in this life! β
