If he could, Huo Qingzhou would never want to remember what happened that day.

But people's memories are very strange, sometimes the more you want to forget, but it is timeless, even if you deliberately do not remember, it will inadvertently, in the corner of your heart that you do not want to touch, let you linger.

Huo Qingzhou is like this, for many years afterward, the person he hates and doesn't want to see the most is Zhanhuai.

But there is no way, fate seems to have played a big joke on him, from this day on, the names of Zhanhuai and Zhanhuai always appear in his ears in front of his eyes, Huo Qingzhou even spent a month to study Yi Xue, he is extremely talented, and he will be able to set up a stall to cheat money after a month, but it is only limited to defrauding the ignorant woman's small money, Huo Qingzhou still failed to find a way to let Zhanhuai roll away.

But that's all for later, a few years later.

This year, Huo Qingzhou was eighteen years old, and Zhanhuai was not yet sixteen years old.

Huo Qingzhou didn't expect that Zhanhuai, the little rabbit cub, would break into his life from then on, and one day he would snatch what he thought was the most precious treasure.

If he could know, he would starve to death today, and he would not compromise with Zhanhuai.

At this moment, Huo Qingzhou was holding his stomach that was obviously very full but hungry, looking forward to the arrival of Zhanhuai.

He never thought that sometimes one day, he would wait for a man like this, no, Zhanhuai is not a man, at most he is half the size.

There is Yan Ruyu in the book, Huo Qingzhou has always believed that only beauties are worth waiting for, the willow tops on the moon, after dusk, the beauty of the evening makeup with embroidered shoes fluttered in......

But can beauties be eaten as food?

No!

Huo Qingzhou looked at the two doors in the small courtyard, his eyes were sore, his neck began to stiffen, and finally, the door finally opened.

Zhan Huai walked in wearing the dazzling red arrow sleeves.

Huo Qingzhou just couldn't understand why these noble children liked to dress up in flowers, but they were just a group of guys who relied on their ancestral shade to show their teeth and claws.

Of course, the children of the Zhan family seem to be a little different.

Huo Qingzhou thought like this, and the red shadow had already walked in front of him.

Zhanhuai nodded, and the young man who looked like a small guy next to him held the tray in front of Huo Qingzhou.

The things in the tray were taken out in the same way, not the pen of the lake pen, not the ink of Hui ink, not the paper of Xue Taojian, not the inkstone of Duan Yan.

Zhanhuai smiled: "I'm sorry, in the countryside, I really can't get a decent study of the four treasures, Huo Gongzi will use it, by the way, Huo Gongzi, do you have the small seal you usually use with you?" If not, then draw a pattern, and I'll have someone engrave one. ”

Huo Qingzhou only felt that his nose was about to be crooked, Zhan Lao Wu, you are also too thoughtful, the idea is on Lao Tzu's small seal.

"I'll take it, don't bother you to bother." Huo Qingzhou held back his anger and said angrily.

Zhanhuai was relieved, relieved, and then smiled heartily: "Brother Huo, don't make jokes, I'm a rough person, I don't know much about your scholars." ”

Huo Qingzhou snorted: "Master Zhan, Huo doesn't dare to call you a brother and a brother, you better not be close." ”

Zhanhuai was not angry at all, he hurriedly said: "We rough people don't understand the rules, and sometimes we call the horses, dogs, and eagles that hunt with us also want to be old brothers and brothers, which makes Huo Gongzi laugh." Okay, don't bother Huo Gongzi, I'll go out, let me serve you with pen and ink, Huo Gongzi has finished writing, just hand it over to him. ”

After speaking, he didn't look at Huo Qingzhou, who was about to jump up in anger, so he went out with grace.

Huo Qingzhou sat there panting, showing this little rabbit cub, and actually compared him to an animal!

How do you not let your horse your dog and your eagle write to you, how do you not kidnap them?

Huo Qingzhou just gasped for breath, and there was a gurgling in his stomach.

I'm so hungry!

"I want to eat, and I can't hold a pen if I don't eat!" He simply broke the jar and fell.

It's all come to this point, what kind of face do you need, can face be eaten as food?

No.

"I want to eat, to be able to eat!" Huo Qingzhou glared at the little guy named Ah You and roared.

Ah You shrunk his neck, as if he was frightened, but he just shrunk his neck, Ah didn't say a word, he didn't move a step, and he didn't go out to serve him food at all.

Huo Qingzhou finally deflated, could the little guy who showed his arms be a good citizen?

"How many years have you been following Zhanhuai?" Huo Qingzhou asked.

Ah You blinked his eyes and replied very obediently and meekly: "If you go back to Huo Ye, the little Ah You has been following the fifth master for almost ten years." ”

"It's been so long, that's what you've been serving since you were a child, then you must know that your fifth master is from a rich background, and you won't let people work hungry, right?"

When Huo Qingzhou spoke, he was very approachable.

Ah You continued to blink his eyes, and replied more obediently and meekly: "Back to Huo Ye's words, the little Ah You, don't dare to worry about the matter of the fifth master, what the fifth master will do, Ah You doesn't know, and he doesn't dare to know." ”

Huo Qingzhou thinks that he must be unfavorable for the passing years, otherwise how could he meet someone like Zhanhuai, it would be enough to meet Zhanhuai, and none of the people around Zhanhuai are normal.

Huo Qingzhou couldn't help but raise his head, the dozens of bows on the three walls were still there, and dozens of arrows were still pointing at him.

"Aren't you tired?" He put his hands to the corners of his mouth as a trumpet and yelled.

The dozens of people on the wall were like wooden and stone statues, no one answered, and not even the lines on their faces moved.

"Huo Ye doesn't have to waste his physical strength, without the orders of the fifth master, they can stand like this for three days and three nights." Ah You's voice is very gentle, gentle like a girl.

But it was such a gentle voice, but it made Huo Qingzhou break out in a cold sweat behind his back.

A guy like Ah You can't talk nonsense, he said that these people can stand motionless for three days and three nights, then it won't be fake.

Huo Qingzhou thought of two words.

"Dead man"!

From the moment these people appeared in front of him, he could be sure that these people would not be just soldiers.

Sure enough, he didn't guess wrong, these people are not soldiers, at least not those soldiers who are common in the army, they are dead soldiers.

The dead soldier raised by the Huo family.

Zhanhuai is only fifteen or sixteen years old, of course these people will not be trained by him, this is the person of the Duke of Min, or the person of the prince of the world.

Thinking of Shizi Zhanchen, Huo Qingzhou gritted his teeth.

He had heard of Zhan Chen's name a long time ago, but at that time, he only thought that Zhan Chen had just relied on Zu Yin to fight a few battles and make a few military achievements.

But now that he saw Zhanhuai with his own eyes, and then remembered his previous thoughts, he couldn't help but scold himself for being short-sighted.

The youngest Zhan Huai under the knees of the Duke of Min is already like this, what about Zhan Chen? Who will it be?

He was stunned, and Ah You on the side saw it, and kindly reminded him: "Huo Ye, you better write the letter quickly, if you finish the letter early, you will be able to eat early, and you have to write sooner or later, it is better to write early than late, you are a reader, understand the reason, Ah You will not be noisy." ”

After speaking, Ah You sharpened the ink very seriously, as if he was grinding not ink, but polishing some pearl treasure.

Huo Qingzhou laughed at himself, thinking that he Huo Yan actually had today, bowing his head for a full meal.

He didn't care about writing such a letter, in fact, even if Zhanhuai didn't come to him, he wanted to find an opportunity to write a letter, and it was best to ask for a ransom of tens of thousands of children in the letter, he knew that Huo Jiang took it, he just wanted to know that after his father saw his letter, he would hand over the letter to the government for disposal, or would he scrape together the money to redeem him recklessly.

One is salvation, the other is redemption, perhaps in the eyes of others, the former is rational and the latter is ignorant, but in Huo Qingzhou's eyes, it is different.

He had seen his sane father for so long that he sometimes wondered if he was in this life.

As for how to write this letter, Huo Qingzhou already had several versions of the manuscript in his heart, he picked up the pen, didn't think about it at all, and the pen flew like a fly, but in a moment, he wrote the letter.

He blew the ink stains that had not dried, and said to Ah You: "You take it and hand it to Zhanhuai, let him quickly deliver the meal, remember, you must be able to eat a full meal, and don't coax me with medicine." ”

Ah You hurriedly responded, but did not reach out to take the letter, but kindly reminded: "Huo Ye, you haven't stamped it yet." ”

Huo Qingzhou snorted coldly, looked Ah You up and down, and then slowly put his hand into the waistband of his pants that had been beaten to shreds, groped in it for a while, and found a small mark, put it to his mouth, and solemnly covered the letter.

Ah You grinned, if his fifth master was also so sloppy, he would rather the fifth master not read and write.

Finally, Ah You picked up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and walked out together with the letter.

Seeing that he was about to walk to the door, Huo Qingzhou suddenly asked, "The four treasures of this study are not worth anything, why do you have to take them away?" ”

He hadn't written for a long time, and he still wanted to write a few poems to scold Zhanhuai for that martial artist when he had time.

Ah You turned around and said very politely: "The fifth master said that he must let the little one take these out, although this ink is not Hui ink, but it can be broken and swallowed into the stomach, although this paper is not mulberry paper, but if you paste a few more layers on the face, you can also die, this can be inserted into the temple, as for this inkstone......"

Without waiting for Ah You to patiently finish explaining the purpose of the four treasures of the study, Huo Qingzhou waved his hand at him impatiently: "The inkstone is far harder than the green brick, I know, you go, let's go, let's go." ”

Ah You held the tray, and when he left, he didn't forget to bow to Huo Qingzhou, and at first glance he was a very educated person in a high-ranking family.

It wasn't until the two doors were closed again that Huo Qingzhou came through his breath.

What kind of master has what kind of minions, Zhanhuai is hateful, and his little guy is equally hateful.

He looked up at the people on the wall again, only to feel that he was depressed and breathless.

He looked at the sky, the sky was high and the clouds were light, a common sunny day in winter, such a good weather, but he was surrounded by dozens of people, dozens of bows, dozens of arrows, and his stomach was still purring.

Huo Qingzhou felt that he lived to be eighteen years old, and there was nothing more tragic than this.

He returned to the room and lay straight down on the cot.

The bed was small, his legs were long and his feet were long, and half of his calves were dangling at the head of the bed, dangling like a wicker with nowhere to lean in the cold wind.

I don't know how long it took, Huo Qingzhou, who was half-asleep and half-awake, was suddenly awakened by a burst of rice.

No, it's not just the smell of rice, it's something else.

What does it taste like?

It's chicken, mushroom stewed chicken!

Huo Qingzhou sat up violently, and through the doorless door frame, he saw the beauty of the corridor leaning up, putting a steaming casserole, as well as a pot of rice, and four side dishes that looked very delicate from a distance.

In addition, there was a pot of wine, the wine was warm on the small red clay stove, and the faint aroma of wine wafted into Huo Qingzhou's nose, but he completely ignored it, in his nose and eyes, all he could smell and see was the casserole, no, it was the chicken in the casserole.

Huo Qingzhou almost pounced out, regardless of whether he had medicine or not, whether he could eat enough, how long Lao Tzu had been here, how long had he not smelled meat.

The mushrooms are mountain mushrooms, there are as many as four or five kinds, the soup is very fresh, the chickens are small hens that have not laid eggs, and the meat is very tender.

Huo Qingzhou swore that in this life, he would never read that bullshit again, and would rather eat no meat than live without bamboo.

Without meat, you still have the strength to look at bamboo, bullshit, bullshit.

Of course, he admits that there are people in the world who can be vegetarian for the rest of their lives, but he is not, he is meatless.

He felt that it was the best chicken, the best meat he had ever eaten in his life.

Huo Qingzhou ate the whole chicken into his stomach, picked up the casserole, and drank the whole pot of soup with a grunt, and then sat down on the beauty with satisfaction, burped, and went to see the four side dishes.

A plate of sheep's head pounded garlic is not a common cold dish, it is hot, and red spicy seeds are added, which is different from the way of eating in the capital, Huo Qingzhou is a little strange, it is not that Fujian eats like this, I haven't heard that Fujian people love to eat beef and mutton and chili.

Not to mention Fujian, even in the capital, few people eat chili peppers, it is said that this is from the red-haired people, but the Central Plains people do not agree, but it is planted in the northwest and Yunnan-Guichuan and other places.

There is also a plate of lamb fried with green onions, or mutton!

The other dish is braised beef, and these three dishes are all beef and mutton in one water.

Huo Qingzhou's eyes were attracted by the fourth saucer, this can't be considered a saucer, it should be a bowl, a big bowl.

It's not a hot dish either, it's a cold dish.

He knew what it was, but it was too rare, he hadn't seen it in the capital, and he hadn't seen it in Shandong, and this was once he ate at a small stall of Shaanxi people on the way to Shandong.

This is Shaanxi rice peel!

Beef and mutton and rice skin!

Together, these four side dishes are Shaanxi!

Zhanhuai is a Fujianese with good roots, and the cooks around him cook Shaanxi cuisine.

And although he doesn't know much about it, he can feel that every thing he tastes is very authentic.

I don't know what kind of place this is, why the chef here is from Shaanxi, or is this something that Zhanhuai brought from Fujian?
