Chapter 18: Digging the Foot of the Wall
"Third young master, it's time to get up, the young master called you to go to the martial arts hall to make a move."
"Third young master, you are still drinking tea here, young master invites you to go to the study to practice calligraphy."
"Third young master, it's time to eat, young master invites you to try the dishes."
"Third young master, young master, please come over."
"Third Young Master......"
Murong An felt that his recent days had been in dire straits, and he had completely lost the dignity of the eldest young master of his Murong family, and he was also the future successor of the Murong family.
Look at what kind of life he is living now!
Every day before dawn, he got up to sparring as a target, but he was tired and tired but couldn't eat a normal meal, and then began to accompany him to read and learn calligraphy and painting, and he was more diligent and serious than the teacher in the school.
It's easy to say that he is a man, and he can bear some mental hardship.
Can......
Looking at the plate of red, oily stuff in front of him, Murong An felt that Shen Lingxi was not here to ask him to try the dishes today, but to kill him.
That's a whole plate of chili peppers! Deep-fried red peppers!
The spicy smell irritated his nose for a while, as if a sneeze would come out at any moment.
No matter how strong his body is, he can't withstand such destruction!
"Brother Shen......"
He looked at him with a slumped face, listless and cautious, "This...... This is...... It's not for food, is it? ”
Shen Lingxi's face was calm and he couldn't see anything unusual: "It's food, taste it." ”
After speaking, he also intimately handed over the chopsticks, and Murong An wanted to cry without tears.
Tremblingly, he stretched out his chopsticks and took a small piece of chili pepper, and before it reached his mouth, Murong An couldn't stand it.
He swallowed his saliva, his eyes fluttered, and finally in Shen Lingxi's expectant eyes, he sent the chili pepper to his mouth in the mood of a strong man breaking his wrist.
At the same moment, he closed his eyes tightly, as if this would protect him from the irritation of the spicy taste.
He chewed it twice, and the crisp taste and the spicy flavor that had not yet spread at the beginning stimulated his taste buds, making him have a moment of surprise and surprise, and his frowning brows were stretched in an instant.
"Hmm...... Delicious! ”
However, with the chewing and the secretion of saliva in the mouth, the spicy taste spreads in the mouth, and it instantly becomes hot.
A burning sensation that is scorching.
"Ah, it's spicy! It's spicy! Water, water! ”
Shen Lingxi got the answer he wanted, and he didn't care much about his reaction, so he kindly pushed the tea over.
Murong An didn't have time to thank him, he picked up the teacup and poured the tea into it, and the next moment he ......
"Poof......
The tea turned into mist and was sprayed out in an instant, Murong An's eyes were red, his tongue stretched out like a panting puppy, and his speech was slurred.
"Ah, it's so spicy, it's spicy and hot, I can't stand it, I can't stand it, water, where is the water?!"
He walked restlessly, and finally plunged into a large water tank placed in the corner of the wall not far away.
Shen Lingxi reached out and touched the rim of the cup, his eyebrows moved slightly: "Ah, I forgot, this is hot water." ”
Chao Ge was dumbfounded, and silently shed tears of sympathy for the third young master in his heart.
The third young master can't eat spicy.
From this day on, Murong An found that all the dishes made by Brother Shen were more or less spicy, and some were so spicy that he didn't dare to smell them.
However, what he couldn't accept the most was that while he felt helpless about this unchangeable situation, there was some kind of hidden joy in his heart?
Yes, rejoicing!
Murong An looked at the dishes in front of him that looked full of color and flavor, and at the same time felt that he had a problem in his heart, he also felt that he had helped Brother Shen practice his current cooking skills, which made him very happy and proud.
Because of him, Brother Shen has practiced good cooking skills. But why, Brother Shen's dishes are all spicy that he can't eat?
I didn't find that Brother Shen's taste was so heavy before!
Murong An was puzzled, but he couldn't stand such a spicy taste more and more.
After all, a change in a person's tastes is not a matter of one or two days.
Just when Shen Lingxi once again brought a pot of spicy boiled fish with a layer of red chili oil floating on it, Murong An had the heart to retreat.
His throat still hurts.
But he didn't want to refuse, only every time he said it was delicious, there would be a little smile in Brother Shen's eyes.
"Young Master!"
Just as he hesitated, a familiar voice came, and he turned around, and a small servant came straight for him.
"Changping? What are you doing here? ”
Murong An looked at his personal servant in surprise, "Is there something wrong at home?" ”
Changping saluted the two young masters, and then looked at his master and shook his head, and then cautiously glanced at Shen Lingxi, who was looking at the dishes on the table, and told him not to care about this side, before he approached Murong An and spoke.
However, in just a few words, Murong An's expression was wonderful like a color palette, surprise, frowning, surprised, surprised, shocked, and other emotions all changed between his handsome eyebrows.
In the end, he slapped his palm on the stone table, and raised his eyebrows angrily: "It's too much, you dare to hit my sister-in-law's attention!" ”
Changping's eyelids twitched, and he stepped aside silently.
Murong An was angry, and looked at Shen Lingxi's mouth like a cannon.
"Brother Shen, let's go back to Qingshan Village quickly! If you don't go back, your sister-in-law will be poached by someone! There is still a disciple who is not long-eyed and dares to take advantage of his sister-in-law, let's go back quickly! ”
Chao Ge was originally in a fog by the third young master's sentence of "sister-in-law", but when he heard his next sentence, he immediately understood.
What the third young master said was Miss Ming.
However, digging the foot of the wall, becoming a disciple, taking advantage of it...... Eh, wait!
Chao Ge's eyes twitched, he looked at the young master nervously, and then at the boiled fish he had just made in his hand.
The young master won't be angry and overturn this, right? It was piping hot.
Shen Lingxi's aura all over his body had an obvious and strong change when Murong An opened his mouth to explain that Yueqing was being taken advantage of, and this change made Murong An can't help but take a step back.
But the next moment, Shen Lingxi changed back to his familiar indifferent appearance.
He looked at Murong An, who looked angry and nervous, and said lightly: "You sent someone to Qingshan Village?" ”
Murong An choked, and then remembered that Chao Ge had told him that he had said that no one was allowed to disturb Qingshan Village.
"I ...... Brother Shen, I didn't. Murong An waved his hand again and again, "I'm just worried that someone else will take advantage of your absence, so I ...... Pay a little attention. ”
Facing Shen Lingxi's gradually cold gaze, sweat came out of his anxious head.
"But I definitely didn't bother them, really, Brother Shen, I just asked people to pay attention to whether there were any door-to-door proposals in Qingshan Village recently, and I didn't do anything else."
"Brother Shen, you have to believe me."
Shen Lingxi's eyes narrowed slightly, and at this moment, everyone present felt a tightness in their hearts.
After a moment, he spoke: "Don't take it as an example." ”
Murong An breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.
Then, Shen Lingxi's gaze fell on Changping.
"What do you mean by that?"
