"Miss, just now Young Master Bai's servant sent a message, saying that the competition is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, and also said that if Miss doesn't dare to fight, she can say it earlier." Huang Fuxue didn't say anything yet, and the magpie was so angry that he said, "This Bai Gongzi is too arrogant, since it is a competition, it should also be discussed before making a decision, he decided the time of the competition privately, and even provoked Miss, it was too deceitful." ”

"Okay, I have such a battle with him after all, and now it's just early, as for when to compete, what to compete is actually not at all, what I care about is ......" Bai Yuyan suddenly proposed a competition at this time, but don't have any conspiracy. Huang Fuxue was a little worried, and after thinking about it, she advised, "Okay, you must be more careful tomorrow, I'm worried about Bai Yuyan's conspiracy." ”

"Miss, don't worry, tomorrow I will personally watch everything in the restaurant, not even a fly will fly in."

"Silly girl, it's winter, where are the flies?" Huangfu Xue smiled, put down the account book and glanced at the sky, "Uncle, it's this hour, why hasn't he come back yet." The magpie laid out the meal and said as he served the soup, "My uncle has come back a long time ago, and is now in the old lady's room." ”

"Do what?" I've been busy in the past two days, but I haven't been to Li's side yet, thinking that something is going on, and I'm anxious. Magpie shook his head, "The slave and maid are not very clear, and the slave and maid also overheard what the sister in the old lady's room said. If you are worried, you can go over and see for yourself. ”

"Forget it, if Xianggong wants to tell me, he will naturally tell me." Since he doesn't say it, then he doesn't know what to do. An Mingchen hadn't come back yet, and Huangfuxue didn't have any appetite, so he took the account book and continued to look at it, seeing this, the magpie had the heart to persuade but knew that even if he persuaded him, it was useless, so he simply went out and waited.

After a while, An Mingchen walked in, glanced at the food on the table, and said with some apologies and distress, "If the lady is hungry, eat first, don't wait for me." ”

"You're going to Ningcheng in a few days, and I don't know when I'll eat like this next time," Huangfu Xue was smiling, but An Mingchen felt very distressed, "I'm sorry, I'll come back as soon as possible." Help her put down the account book, walk up to her and sit down, "Just now my mother called me over and told me that my fourth brother was missing." ”、

"What's going on, can I find it." Huangfu Xue knew that there must be something wrong with the Li family looking for him, but he didn't know that it was because of An Mingdong. Gone, when is the thing. Since Li Caiyi's death, An Mingdong has been much more low-key, sometimes she can't see him for several days, two days ago she heard that An Mingdong wanted to go to Ningcheng, isn't it......

"You guessed right, he did leave a book and ran away to Ningcheng, and I also found the letter in his room after knowing that he left. The mother was so angry that she pulled me and scolded the fourth child for a long time. An Mingchen was also worried, but compared to the inexplicable excuses and ideas of the Li family, he hoped that the fourth child would go to Ningcheng. Since you have no intention of marrying, then don't marry, and when the time comes, the two people will torture each other.

"Mother, I must be angry." Huangfuxue understands the Li family, the Li family loves her son the most, and the most painful among her sons is An Mingdong, but now her most distressed son has given her such a play, it is strange that she can feel better. "Isn't your mother angry that you just came back?"

"What she wants to see is the fourth brother, and what she wants to find is also the fourth brother, besides, I will leave soon, even if she is angry, she can't do anything to me." What's more, she also expects him to solve the matter of her second sister as soon as possible, even if she is angry in her heart, she will not really say it. An Mingchen didn't want to pay attention to these, and after eating, he accompanied Huangfu Xue to read the account book. Before going to sleep, Huangfu Xue suddenly spoke.

"Do you have something to do tomorrow?" Roll over and lie face to face with him. An Mingchen blew it out and shook his head with a smile, "It's nothing." ”

"Then you can accompany me to the restaurant tomorrow. You're leaving soon, and I don't know when I'll see you next time, I'll ...... "In the end, Huangfu Xue is still reluctant to An Mingchen, as long as she has the slightest opportunity, she wants to stay with him, if it weren't for being too busy in the shop, she really wanted to stay at home and accompany him every day."

An Mingchen was reluctant to let her go, but he didn't want to disturb her to do things, so he didn't say anything, and now when he saw her take the initiative to mention it, he agreed without thinking about it, "I originally thought the same thing, lady, do we have a heart." Stretched out his hand to hold the person in his arms, and rubbed her with his nose affectionately. Huangfu Xue subconsciously leaned towards him, obviously happy in his heart, but he denied it the hardest, "It's not, it's obviously me who brought it up first." ”

The weather is not very good these days, after a heavy snowfall, the weather is a little colder, Huangfu Xue is now more and more reluctant to go out, every time the time to get up is also delayed again and again, today is even more outrageous, when I arrive at the restaurant, it will be noon. An Qinyue and the shopkeeper were already in a hurry, and when they saw her come in, they couldn't wait to step forward, "Miss, we are about to compete with Huixiang Restaurant, and we haven't prepared anything here......"

"It's just a competition, there's nothing to prepare for. Besides, Bai Yuyan hasn't mentioned anything yet, and even if he wants to prepare, he doesn't know what to prepare. Huangfu Xue looked calm, glanced at the hour, and beckoned to the shopkeeper, "Go outside and take a look, have you started to prepare for Huixianglou." ”

At this time, Sanqi walked in, "Second Miss, our young master said, today's competition of the signature dishes of their respective restaurants will start in an hour." Oh, by the way, for the sake of fairness, the competition between the two sides must be held in the ring set up in the Huixiang Restaurant. ”

"The content of the competition was announced at this hour, and your young master is obviously trying to cheat." Huangfu Xue looked disdainful, but she didn't bother to deal with them until now, but she was not the one who suffered, and after thinking about it, she spoke, "Do you want to compete, it's only fair for you to come and go, since the time, place, and content of the competition are all determined by Huixiang Restaurant, then we will decide next time." You can't always be at a loss, isn't it? ”

What Huang Fuxue said was good, but everyone present could hear that there was something in her words, Sanqi heard the words, his face was not so good-looking, he glanced at Huang Fuxue, and did not answer immediately, "The little one will go back and talk to the young master, but ......"

"If your young master doesn't agree, I won't admit the results of today's competition, no matter who wins or loses." Huangfu Xue didn't know the meaning of the three seven words, he agreed first, and then wanted to turn his face and not recognize people, hum, how can there be so many good things in the world.

Sanqi had contact with Huangfu Xue a few times, and he knew her temperament, and when he saw that she blocked her retreat, even if she was reluctant, she still left hard. After Sanqi left, Huang Fuxue asked the shopkeeper to go to the back kitchen to tell the chef about today's competition, and if there is time to spare, you can use this free time to contact first.

The chef of the restaurant is skilled, Huang Fuxue is not worried about today's competition at all, and after explaining to the shopkeeper, he took An Mingchen to the second floor, but he ran in before he sat down as the shopkeeper, "Second Miss, it's not good." Lao Yang, who is in charge of sauerkraut fish, has not come to work until now. The old man wanted to look for it, but his family found it, saying that he didn't go back at all last night......"

Sauerkraut fish is a new dish that their restaurant has not yet launched, Huangfu Xue was originally going to launch it in the past two days, just this opportunity, so he wanted to use this competition to make a good start for sauerkraut fish, who knew that the chef was missing at this juncture. Huangfu Xue and An Mingchen glanced at each other, then stood up, "It disappeared last night, have you asked carefully, did Lao Yang have any strange actions before he disappeared?" ”

"I asked, Lao Yang is very family-oriented, except for the restaurant on weekdays, he has never been to other places without saying a word, he didn't go home, their family looked for it all night last night. Now there is really no way to come to the restaurant, Second Miss, seeing that the competition is about to start, Lao Yang can't find it, is it someone else...... "After all, there are many cooks in the back kitchen, although this competition is not very important, but it will not be absent because of one person."

This competition really shouldn't be absent because of a cook, but why did Lao Yang disappear at this time by coincidence, originally she felt that Bai Yuyan was strange last night, but now that she thinks about it, if she didn't expect it wrong, Lao Yang's disappearance should be related to Bai Yuyan. If she competes today, Lao Yang is afraid that she will ...... After thinking about it, Huangfu Xue came to the window, looked at the direction of Huixiang Restaurant and smiled mockingly.

"Forget it, it's important to find Lao Yang now, and I'll solve the rest." Huangfu Xue sent Lao Yang away, stood in front of the window, and stared at Huixiang Restaurant motionlessly. Back in the Xiang Restaurant, Sanqi told Huang Fuxue's words to Bai Yuyan word for word, Bai Yuyan was originally in a good mood, but when he heard the words, his face changed instantly, he put down the teacup with a snap, raised his head and glared at Sanqi coldly.

"What kind of thing is she, she dares to talk to Young Master Ben like this, how did you answer her." This Huangfu Xue is really arrogant, no wonder the two young ladies of the Huangfu family are not her opponents. Sanqi had long expected that his young master would be unhappy, but he ...... The second young lady's aura is too powerful, he is just a subordinate, where can he dare to offend the master easily.

The minion didn't say anything. Young master, didn't we catch the hungry chef of their restaurant, will today's competition go smoothly? ”

"Hmph, there are so many chefs in their restaurant, if she wants to win, she will naturally compete with Young Master Ben, but if she wants to save that old thing's life, she is so smart, she naturally knows what to do." Thinking of this, Bai Yuyan's face looked a little better again, he looked up at the sky, took the teacup and played slowly, "It's not too early, you go and keep an eye on it, if they have any movement, inform Young Master Ben as soon as possible." ”

"And what if they don't move?" Sanqi didn't know why, he always felt that Huangfu Xue would definitely not joke with the cook's life. When Bai Yuyan heard this, his face became better and better, "If there is no movement, go and urge, it's better to make a big fuss, so that everyone knows that their Huangfu's restaurant is a coward, a cowardice who doesn't dare to compete with us in the Xiangxiang Restaurant." ”
