Chapter 91
It only took half a day's work for everyone to arrive.
Knocking and beating all the way, it's not lively.
"Returning to the prince of Xiwu, I have delivered the princess's body safely according to your instructions." Song Qi hugged his fists in return.
Mu Xici, who was sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals, didn't even give him a look. I only listened to the sound of suona in the distance, and raised my hand to drink the last sip of liquor left in the white jade cup.
"Master, you can't drink anymore!" He Xun, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, his face full of worry.
"Leave me alone!" Mu Xici threw the white jade cup in his hand that he had drunk heavily at Song Qi's feet.
The jade piece flew apart, instantly scratching the back of Song Qi's hand. The dripping blood dripped down the back of his hand and fell to the ground in an instant.
"Since the prince of Xiwu has no other orders, then he will retire in the next place!"
Mu Xici still ignored his words, just picked up the green jade wine jug on the table, and silently filled it for himself.
"Master, you've drunk so many cups, you really can't drink anymore!" Seeing Song Qi leaving, He Xun wanted to step forward and grab the wine glass.
"Let me drink!" Mu Xici picked up an upside-down porcelain cup, poured it full of wine by himself, and handed it to He Xun, "You can also drink with me!" ”
Seeing that the wine glass had been stuffed into his hand, He Xun poured the wine into his stomach. Just as he was about to raise his sleeves to wipe the wine stains on his lips, he heard Mu Xici's voice faintly.
"Do you believe that people have a past and a present life?"
Surprised, He Xun saw his master put down the white jade cup in his hand and looked at him with a confused look.
Seeing this look, his heart was suddenly shocked.
Because although Mu Xici was looking at him, he was not looking at him, as if he was looking at the endless void.
There is a bit of sadness, and there is also a bit of mockery.
"It looks like you don't believe it!" Mu Xi sneered, "You don't believe it, I believe it!" ”
After speaking, he directly picked up another wine jug on the table, and directly aimed the slender spout at the angular lips.
The wine is clear and slowly pours into the stomach. is like a thousand words, falling into sorrow, but adding to the melancholy.
Seeing this, He Xun had no choice but to sigh.
The master was never an alcoholic, but today he ...... It's good to forget everything for a while.
The moment he stepped out of the room, he seemed to hear the drunken man in the room say something.
"Does it matter if you believe it or not?" Mu Xi laughed at himself and chuckled, "It's not important, it's not important!" ”
In the drunken eyes, two lines of tears slowly slipped down and dripped into the wine glass, causing a trace of ripples.
For a moment, he didn't know if the liquor in the cup was spicy, or was it more bitter in his heart?
At this time, on the sand boat a few miles away, Zhaoyun, who should have been buried in the fire, finished lunch with the cooks and hid in the cabin to steal a moment of leisure.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the cabin.
"I paid you a lot of money to cook on the ship, but what did you cook?"
When Zhaoyun opened his eyes, he saw Wang Shoudao scolding and scolding into the cabin.
"Supervisor Wang, what are you?" Cao Niangzi hurriedly stepped forward with a smile.
"Master Li only put down a few chopsticks, you hurry up and redo it with me!"
"This ..... Isn't that hard for us? Qian Niangzi and the others looked embarrassed.
"Yes, my lord, you also know that this time it is a long way to Xiwu, and there is a certain amount of food every day!" Zhao Niangzi interjected.
Wang Shoudao just gave everyone a roll of his eyes, "Then I don't care, no matter what, you must serve this Master Li well." Otherwise, wait for your punishment! ”
After saying that, he angrily walked out of the rear cabin.
"How are we going to do now?"
"The food is not to the taste of that Master Li!"
"That Master Li is also very picky!"
Several women were gathered around complaining.
"I don't know Miss Ye, do you have any good ideas?"
After a while, Zhao Yun realized that this Zhao lady was talking to her.
Yunqihuang's surname is Nan, and Zhaoyun is both her name and her title. Because he has faked his death, he calls himself surnamed Ye to everyone, and his single name is a cloud character.
Zhao Yun smiled slightly, and asked loudly to a few women who were discussing, "Do you know the taste of this Master Li?" ”
Several people were stunned for a moment, and after a long time, someone answered.
"It is said that this Lord Li has a unique taste, loves meat, and likes salty and sweet." Qian Niangzi said.
"Yes, his taste is indeed unusual. I heard that you don't eat things that are out of season, and you don't drink old wine! Another tall, thin cook added.
"On this wrecked ship, there is nothing in season to eat! This Master Li is really not easy to serve! Cao Niangzi pursed her lips and complained.
Listening to everyone's words, Zhaoyun suddenly remembered the two dishes he had learned in his previous life, and his eyes lit up.
"I suddenly thought of two dishes, which are very suitable for the unique taste of this Master Li, but I need you to help me do it."
Zhaoyun immediately called Zhao Niangzi and the little girl named Lin Yin, and whispered.
When the two of them saw her eyes like torches, they were unconsciously convinced.
Zhaoyun looked at that place, and saw the woman who had been burying her head in the boiling and constantly adding firewood to the boil, put down the work in her hand, and looked up at her with a kind face.
"I've woken up here, so why don't you guys come to help?"
Several people froze in place in embarrassment, but as soon as they heard this, they also went down the stairs and hurriedly went over to help.
After Zhaoyun cleaned his hands, he also walked over, picked up the rolled dough, placed the minced meat in the center with chopsticks, and wrapped it unfamiliarly.
In her previous life, in order to capture Mu Xici's heart, she specially learned cooking skills from Mingcui. learned that he likes to eat pasta, and specially spent a lot of money to hire a cook who is good at making pasta to teach her hand-in-hand.
She thought that she would wash her hands and make soup for him, which would touch his heart that had been frozen for a long time. In the end, she only moved herself.
"Girl, look at your speech and demeanor, you know that you came out of a big family." Zhao Niangzi, who had previously cleared the siege, interrupted Zhaoyun's thoughts.
"That's right, looking at the girl like this, she looks like a young lady from a big family." A woman smiled and agreed.
Zhaoyun was about to answer, but was preempted by the Cao lady: "The young lady of a big family? You have too much to do with your conscience. Which lady from a big family will go on board to do what a cook does? ”
Hearing her yin and yang tone, Zhaoyun sneered in his heart. Although she is not a young lady from a large family, she was also a more noble existence.
However, she didn't bother to argue with her about anything, just clenched the last dough in her hand and put it in the steamer. After seeing that breakfast was ready, she said to a few people: "I am a little seasick and want to go out to breathe." ”
With that, he walked out of the cabin and took a deep breath.
