Chapter 10: Missing
Zhang Jinwen took out the jade pendant that she wore closely.
From the moment she met Zhou Ziyu, the trajectory of her life has changed.
In the previous life, it was Liu Qing who saved her, and then carried her back to Taiping Peak.
And in this life, it was Zhou Ziyu who carried her back to Taiping Peak.
In the previous life, Liu Qing became her senior brother because he saved her, and he followed Master Yuxu Dao Chang to learn the "Thousand Golden Prescriptions" of the ancestor until she and Liu Qing left together.
In this life, she left her master and went directly to follow her ancestor to learn "Qianjin Prescription", not only to learn formula, pharmacy, medical science, but also to learn more health preservation techniques.
Zhang Jinwen stood up suddenly, and she realized that she had been ignoring an important issue all along.
In this life, when she woke up, she saw Zhou Ziyu, but it was she who pulled Zhou Ziyu and didn't let go, so Zhou Ziyu didn't go away, and lit a fire to keep her warm, so she didn't faint immediately.
In the previous life, if it was Zhou Ziyu who saved her, she didn't know how to catch Zhou Ziyu and stay, during the period when Zhou Ziyu went to pick herbs, Liu Qing happened to come over, making her mistakenly think that Liu Qing saved him, it is not impossible!
Because, at that point in time, Liu Qing came over.
If it weren't for Zhou Ziyu making a fire, if Zhou Ziyu hadn't left, she might have fainted.
……
Zhang Jinwen's heart was in turmoil, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was right.
Why haven't you thought about this problem in the past few years?
What did she forget?
Zhang Jinwen walked around the room a few times, but still couldn't remember the scene at that time.
She remembered that her ancestor had mentioned that there was an illusion that the patient could remember anything at any time by drinking a dose of a specially configured decoction and then using the illusion on the patient.
Zhang Jinwen patted her head and decided to enter Zhongnan Mountain again, go to Shizu, and ask Shizu to use illusion spells for her, she wanted to recall every detail of her twelfth birthday.
As soon as she said to leave, Zhang Jinwen waited for Lord Liu's carriage to leave the Xinglin Pavilion, and immediately went to find Aunt Zhang, saying that she had something important and would go to Shizu immediately.
Aunt Zhang saw that Zhang Jinwen was so resolute, she didn't dare to ask more, and she couldn't stop her, so she proposed to let Zhang Jinwen take the two of them with her, and she must ensure safety.
Zhang Jinwen didn't say a word, picked up the basket, brought a few round lock cakes and wild vegetable cakes, and went out with Zhufeng and Zhuqing.
The real chef of Xinglin Pavilion left for a few days, and Aunt Zhang had to be more careful and prepare more carefully, hoping that the guests would not notice the difference.
Master Sun Shengshou is a magical person, Zhang Jinwen followed the master for three years, and Aunt Zhang also followed to take care of Jin'er. The meals of the other apprentices of the master ancestor were all made by Aunt Zhang. She also learned Jin'er's method to make the same food, but when she ate it, it was really delicious, and after eating, she didn't have Jin'er's effect of curing diseases and beauty and peace of mind, so she knew that the master must have taught Jin'er some secrets.
Aunt Zhang took out the next day's order, and there were only three people on the guest list.
Lord Liu, the waiter of the ministry, and two male guests of his colleagues.
It seems that this Lord Liu has a work banquet today.
There are not many guests, only the bamboo shadow bamboo core helper is enough, and Aunt Zhang can handle all the dishes herself.
Zhang Jinwen was not there, so Aunt Zhang prepared dishes according to her own habits.
Spiced beef, stewed pheasant with matsutake mushrooms, Sixi meatballs, stewed pork with three fresh, mille-feuille shortbread, oily spicy noodles, and four cold dishes can basically satisfy the guests.
When the guests come, she just stays in the kitchen, waiting for the bamboo shadow and bamboo core to entertain the guests, and if the guests ask for additional dishes, she can do it again.
The dishes were all served out, and Zhuying ran over to call her: "Aunt Zhang, Lord Liu said that he wanted to eat yesterday's round lock cake." ”
Aunt Zhang remembered that Lord Liu's family was full of praise for the round lock cake, and when he left yesterday, the little boy still held half a round lock cake in his hand and refused to let go.
Anyway, there is alfalfa, I originally wanted to keep it for Jin'er to eat, but now Jin'er has gone to Shizu, and when she comes back, let's dig up fresh ones.
Aunt Zhang grabbed a piece of dough, shredded the alfalfa, and made a few round lock cakes with her heart.
Zhuying took it over, and quickly turned around again: "Aunt Zhang, there is a guest who wants to see you." ”
Aunt Zhang didn't know why, so she followed Zhuying to the private room on the second floor.
When a young man who looked like a military general saw her, he immediately stood up and greeted with a smile: "Aunt Zhang, long time no see." ”
Aunt Zhang was stunned: "Who are you?" ”
The man walked over and saluted: "Aunt Zhang, I'm Zhou Ziyu, remember?" ”
Lord Liu smiled: "It turns out that General Zhou knows the chef of Xinglin Pavilion?" ”
Aunt Zhang recognized Zhou Ziyu and was surprised and delighted: "General Zhou? You made a general? ”
Zhou Ziyu smiled: "Yes, Aunt Zhang, how are you lately?" ”
Another bearded man next to Lord Liu smiled: "Ziyu, I didn't think you still have acquaintances in Chang'an City?" ”
Zhou Ziyu said with a smile: "Yes, I saw it in Zhongnan Mountain a few years ago, and I ate the round lock cake made by Aunt Zhang, and I was very impressed." ”
Aunt Zhang didn't dare to say more: "General Zhou, if you still want to eat, just ask." ”
Zhou Ziyu said: "Is there still Shang Zhi?" I want to eat stewed shozhi in pheasant soup. ”
Aunt Zhang nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, I'll do it." ”
She saluted the guests, hurried downstairs, and heard Lord Liu laughing: "Ah, General Zhou has such a big face, I came to Xinglin Pavilion to eat, and the boss never asked me what I wanted to eat." I'm afraid you'll be the first guest to make a request at the Xinglin Pavilion, and if you come to the Xinglin Pavilion again in the future, remember to call me! ”
After the meal, Zhou Ziyu had something to follow his boss, Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, that is, the big man with a beard on his face, and took the first step. Before leaving, he confessed to Zhuying, and he was going to come over to find Aunt Zhang in the evening to catch up.
Aunt Zhang was happy, stewed a big pot of pheasant and ceremonial soup, baked two large plates of wild vegetable cakes, and waited for Zhou Ziyu to come over.
If Jin'er is here, I don't know how to be happy when I see General Zhou.
Zhu Ying and Zhu Xin have always adhered to the teachings of their ancestors and do not eat at lunch, so they basically eat very little for dinner, and most of the time it is enough to drink some soup.
Seeing Aunt Zhang so grand and hospitable, Zhuying was curious: "Aunt Zhang, do you know General Zhou?" ”
Aunt Zhang said: "Yes, General Zhou knows Uncle Yuqing, and we have met in Zhongnan Mountain. ”
The bamboo shadow is clear, and Uncle Yuqing has also learned the guiding technique from the ancestor.
Zhu Xin said: "General Zhou's boss is the famous Master Li Jing Li!" ”
Zhuying said: "Yes, that momentum is so powerful, he walked with Lord Liu, like killing a god." ”
Zhuxin suddenly said: "I heard Lord Liu asking General Zhou if he has a marriage." ”
Aunt Zhang's heart jumped, and she thought of Jin'er, if General Zhou didn't marry, Jin'er's age would be very suitable.
She asked anxiously, "What did General Zhou say?" ”
Zhuxin shook his head: "I seem to have heard General Zhou say that he has already made a marriage." ”
