Chapter XXXVIII

As we talked about it, I had a very good appetite, and a few of us ate a lot of a large box of dim sum. Min Dao was very pleased: "If you like it, I will bring it again tomorrow." ”

"Where did the cook make this, so chic?"

Min Dao smiled and said slightly: "It was made by someone, I heard that the old master was an imperial chef in his early years, and his dim sum skills are superb." ”

Wu Zhen hurriedly said: "Then this favor is great, let's taste it once, and we can't keep bothering people to do this." ”

"It's okay, his craft has been lonely for so many years. This man has a strange temper, and when he is happy, he gives it to the neighbors to eat, and when he is unhappy, he doesn't do anything when someone comes to the door with gold and silver. ”

Yao Huang came in with tea and said softly: "Girl, there is a Yao Gongzi outside, and a Yue girl, saying that they are here to visit the sick......

Wu Zhen and I were stunned.

Yao Huang stood there honestly, looking at his nose and nose, waiting for me to speak.

"Let's just say that the girl is sick and doesn't see any guests......" Wu Zhen said half a sentence, and I shook my head: "Please let the two of them in." Wu Zhen, you can help me comb my hair. ”

Wu Zhen glanced at me and whispered, "Why did you invite them in?" I think eighty percent of them are weasels giving New Year's greetings to chickens......"

Having said that, she went into the back room with me and re-combed my hair. In the mirror, I looked fine, and although I was not cured, I did not look sluggish and haggard.

"The one surnamed Yao is the one who makes the poison extremely powerful, right?" She whispered in my ear, "Didn't my father-in-law say to be on guard? Why did you invite them in? ”

"Yesterday the man surnamed Qi sent a box, and today these two people came to visit the patientβ€”we must have something here that they want to know. If you don't let them in, I'm afraid that they won't be reconciled, but will find another way, which may lead to more trouble. Why don't you invite them in, what do they want to see? Let them see it generously. ”

Wu Zhen still disagrees: "The heart of defense is indispensable......"

"I agree."

Of course, the heart of defense is indispensable.

Wu Zhen and I smiled.

She reached out and shook my hand like we used to gesture at home, every time we learned a new illusion and started sparring.

Wu Zhen took the opportunity to pick up the rouge box and handed it to me, and I unscrewed the lid on it, revealing the bright crimson color inside.

The people who came were indeed Yue Tong and Yao Zisheng.

"I heard that you are sick," after the cold noise, Yao Zisheng got straight to the point and put a small bottle on the table: "I brought some medicine, the best cure for wind and cold." ”

"Thank you." I picked it up and said, "This is also your own deserving?" I'm cured. Maybe you can save it for next time. ”

Yao Zisheng looked indifferent, but as soon as he talked about the medicine, his eyes showed a fanaticism that did not match his appearance: "That's right." I've used herbs that are only available in the Northland, I haven't made them that way before, so you'd better take them now - I want to see how they work! ”

This was said extremely unreasonably, but Min Dao, who was shy, was the first to jump up: "You...... How can you give Wu Ning such an unknown thing? ”

Yao Zisheng was not in a hurry or irritated: "The medicine I dispensed has never killed a person who should not be killed." Others want to ask me for a dose of medicine, but I haven't had time to take care of it. Besides, it's just a little wind chill......"

The implication is that I should thank him.

Min Dao thought that he had never spoken to anyone like this, his chest rose and fell, his face was flushed, and he turned his head to me and said, "Miss Wu Ning, I don't know if there will be anything wrong with taking this medicine, you can't believe people's words." ”

This kid. I didn't say I was going to take it.

Yue Tong smiled and said: "Zisheng has always been this temper, burying his head in medicine all day long, and he is not very knowledgeable about the world. But this time he really put a lot of thought into it. I heard yesterday that you were sick, so I buried my head in dispensing medicine there, and I even tasted it after I finished it. It's just that he doesn't get the wind chill himself, so I don't know if this medicine will have a miraculous effect if he takes it, he just can't speak. Miss Wu Ning, don't be serious about him. ”

In this way, Yao Zisheng and Min Dao are a bit similar. However, Min Dao is just shy, he understands the sophistication of human feelings, but he is not like Yao Zisheng, who speaks straightforwardly and does not hide it at all.

What my father said about the Yao family went around in my heart.

My father asked me, "Do you know the stone gaps?" ”

I shook my head.

"It is a poisonous snake, which can only grow to the thickness of chopsticks at most, and lives in the crevices of the rocks, under the rocks...... Always haunts without daylight. This snake is extremely venomous, and it usually does not hurt people easily, but if it encounters danger, it will not let go when it bites people, even if you cut it into several pieces and crush it...... Its fangs can bite into the bones, and if you don't cut the flesh and cut the bones, you can't get rid of it even if you die. Some people say that the people in Nankui have a temperament like this snake, especially the people of the Yao family. There is one more thing that people have than snakes, and that is memory. You kill a snake, and the other snakes won't come to take revenge. But if you have a grudge against a Nankui person, especially a member of the Yao family...... In your life, you won't be able to sleep with your eyes closed. ”

Yao Zisheng in front of him couldn't see the viciousness, but he was very stubborn and a little willful. In the boyish teenager, these do not seem so abrupt.

I can't see if Yao Zisheng and the snake called Shi Jianzi have the same vicious characteristics.

I diverted the conversation, talked about the dim sum brought by Min Dao, and took it out for Yue Tong and Yao Zisheng to taste. Yue Tong didn't talk much, as if he was just a companion from beginning to end. Yao Zisheng tasted a rabbit cake, squinted his eyes, and suddenly said: "This is not using well water." ”

Before we could understand it, Yue Tong said: "He has the most clever tongue and nose, if he says so, it must be true." Then he asked, "What kind of water is used to make this snack?" ”

"The water in the capital is not tasty and has a bitter taste. I don't know what kind of water it is, but it must not be well water. ”

Min Dao glanced at him and muttered: "The tongue is inverted - Master He's family lives outside the city, and their family uses spring water to cook and make snacks." ”

Yao Zisheng showed a slight smugness: "I can't be mistaken." ”

"And what else can you taste?"

The two of them seemed to be more energetic, Yao Zisheng tasted another piece of ingots cake, and tasted it carefully: "This one uses corn, pumpkin, honey, caramel sugar, milk ......."

Min Dao disagreed: "Anyone can taste this." ”

"Honey is...... Apple nectar. ”

Min Dao was stunned: "Really? ”

"Taste it carefully."

I don't know if he was right, I didn't eat it, all kinds of sweet honey fragrances were mixed together, how could I taste the honey from which kind of flower it was?

Min Dao tasted another piece, tasted it carefully, and said with some frustration: "I haven't eaten the apple flavor, but there is an apple tree on the Zhuangzi of Master He's house, and there is a room for bees to live in." ”

The friendship between young people is so strange, Min Dao was originally hostile to Yao Zisheng, but now the atmosphere seems very delicate. Min Dao had to admit that Yao Zisheng did have his excels, and Yao Zisheng seemed to feel that Min Dao was not so annoying.

Yue Tong turned his head and asked, "By the way, Miss Wu Ning, Brother Bo Xuan sent a box yesterday, right?" (To be continued)
