Xu Shaoyan helped Ruoshui and looked at her with complicated eyes. Xu Shaoyan is an authentic Han Chinese, or a descendant of Maoshan Taoism, so he naturally understands the mystery of the talisman array better than Lan Lin. Even Xu Shaoyan's master didn't have the ability to make such a large courtyard as the talisman seal. Not to mention that in such a short period of time, it is simply done in one go.

Ruoshui was younger than him, but only sixteen or seventeen years old, how could he have such a high level of cultivation. Unless this is not her real age, Xu Shaoyan remembered his original suspicions again. He felt that the girl in front of him was becoming more and more like the legendary master of the Xuanmen.

Ruoshui slowed down for a while before he recovered a little, and when he saw a trace of guilt flashing on the face of Gao Gong, who was covered with stench, he said embarrassedly: "Sister Gao, I'm really sorry." ”

Gao Zhongqiang smiled: "It's nothing, I'll just go wash it, don't care." ”

As soon as the high public voice fell, a young children's voice sounded in the courtyard: "Mother, we are hungry......"

Ruoshui looked at the source of the sound and saw five children in the courtyard, two of the eldest were boys, who were only six or seven years old, and three little girls, the youngest of whom was just over two years old. They all looked at themselves and Xu Shaoyan curiously with their eyes open, but they all looked yellow and thin, and they looked a little malnourished.

The expression on Gao Public's face softened: "There are guests at home today, my mother's body is stinky, I am afraid of smoking the guests, you wait a while, my mother will go in and wash, and come out to cook for you." ”

A flash of disappointment flashed across the face of the girl who spoke, clutching her stomach, obviously hungry.

Seeing this, Ruoshui hurriedly said: "Sister Gao, you go wash first, tell me where the kitchen is, and I'll cook." ”

Gao Zhong said in panic: "How can this be done, you are the owner, or a guest, where can I let you cook when you come to my house, you just sit, don't care about these bear babies, I will come out and do it in a while." ”

Ruoshui said with a smile: "Sister Gao, where do we use such politeness, if you see me like this, I will be angry." ”

Gao Dazhong said helplessly: "Then you can go, the kitchen is over there, and I will help you with washing." ”

Ruoshui responded with a smile, let Xu Shaoyan play with the children, and walked towards the kitchen by himself. Xu Shaoyan knew that the length of time for this rune array seal was related to the profound skill of the person who arranged the rune array, and if Shui hastily laid down the rune array, he was a little worried that it would be broken soon. So he grabbed Ruoshui and asked.

Ruoshui smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, it's absolutely no problem for us to stay inside for two or three days." Regardless of that, the stunned Xu Shaoyan walked straight towards the kitchen.

Ruoshui entered the kitchen of the Gao family and unexpectedly found that there were really not many ingredients in the kitchen of the Gao family, even the most basic ingredients such as rice and noodles had also seen the bottom, Ruoshui then remembered that the Gao family did not have Gao Duxiu, a man to make money, and Gao Dazhong had to take care of so many children, and the money in the family had probably been spent a long time ago, she had just come to work in a big pharmacy, and she had not been paid for less than a month, and she had not been paid, and the family probably couldn't even get the money to buy rice and noodles.

If Shui uses the existing ingredients to make a table of rice, they are three adults, five children, but only four dishes, the staple food is even, each person can only get half a bowl of rice, half a steamed bun. After this shabby meal was served, the five children all looked at each other with excitement, they had not eaten such a hearty meal for a long time.

Gao Dazhong was a little embarrassed, she knew that Ruoshui's family was very rich, and the person next to her should also be a big young master. She is also from everyone's background, and it can be seen from Xu Shaoyan's dress that Xu Shaoyan is either rich or expensive. She knew that this meal was barely enough for the children, and it was probably not enough for an adult like Xu Shaoyan to eat. Moreover, it is really humiliating for their family to even entertain guests so shabby.

The courtyard where Gao Dazhong and her family lived was bought when Gao Duxiu was there, and most of the people who lived here were some well-off families, so I didn't expect that Gao Dazhong's family was already poor and couldn't even afford to eat, and they only thought that Ruoshui couldn't cook, so they only made a few things. He didn't want Ruoshui to feel embarrassed, so he didn't speak, but smiled and picked up the food on the table and ate it.

Xu Shaoyan was really hungry, so he pulled the rice steak in the bowl into his mouth in two bites, tasted the food on his mouth again, and unexpectedly found that although it was just a simple green vegetable tofu, it was very delicious. Even the chef they hired at home couldn't make such a taste, and they couldn't imagine that Ruoshui still had good cooking skills.

While Xu Shaoyan was eating, he quickly ate half of the steamed bun. Ruoshui was a little embarrassed to see that Xu Shaoyan didn't seem to be full after eating the steamed buns, and handed half of the steamed buns in his bowl to Xu Shaoyan: "Mr. Xu, my steamed buns haven't been touched yet, if you don't mind, just eat this." ”

Xu Shaoyan is from everyone's background, and he has never seen a family without enough food since he was a child, and he didn't care, thinking that there were still steamed buns in the kitchen that had not been taken out, so he took it over with a big grin and smiled: "What I said, how can I mind your things." ”

Ruoshui Gan laughed twice, and ate half a bowl of rice in the bowl, but she didn't dare to eat more dishes on the table, she could see that these children usually couldn't eat vegetables, and they were all yellow and thin, and it was good to leave some vegetables for the children to eat, anyway, that thing couldn't be full.

There weren't many things on the table, and after a while, they were swept away by everyone, and after the meal, Gao Dazhong packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and Ruoshui followed and said to help clean up. Xu Shaoyan didn't expect this to be the end, he was only half full, and he felt very hungry, thinking that it would be better to go to the kitchen to get some food, so he followed. Before anyone entered the kitchen, they heard a conversation between the two people inside.

"Owner, this is half a steamed bun left behind, you can eat it quickly. I see that you just gave up your steamed buns to Young Master Xu, you must still be hungry. ”

Ruoshui smiled and pushed the steamed bun away: "Sister Gao, you can eat it yourself." You've been working in the pharmacy all day, and you're definitely hungry, and I'm just sitting and I haven't used much energy. ”

Gao Zhongzhong stuffed the steamed bun into Ruoshui's hand: "Owner, you are a guest, I am already embarrassed that I can't entertain you for a full meal." ”

Ruoshui sighed and said, "Sister Gao, I can't stand you, I didn't take into account your family's current economic situation, I should have advanced your month's salary first." Don't worry, I'll let the finance advance pay you tomorrow. ”

Gao Zhong's eyes turned red and said, "What the owner said, if you hadn't taken it in, our family wouldn't have survived." You are the benefactor of our whole family. ”

Ruoshui broke the steamed bun in half, handed half to Gao Dazhong, and said with a smile: "Sister, let's have half of each person." Then drink plenty of water to satisfy your hunger. ”

Looking at the girl in the kitchen who was holding a big bowl and pouring water into her stomach, Xu Shaoyan's eyes turned red unconsciously.
