Chapter Eighty-Four: Human Affection

Zhuo Zhaojie suddenly thought that he couldn't go back to Youfu now, wasn't he influenced by Chang'an? She hurriedly said, "Well, let my grandmother write a letter to my mother, and send it to my mother later, so that my mother can send it to you quietly?" ”

"Excuse me!" Ning Shaobi said, "How troublesome is that? Besides, your grandfather and my uncle have a lot of 'friendship', and I don't dare to eat the things that come out of your Zhuo Mansion, and it is the most convenient to ask for a recipe. ”

"You save trouble, but the Bai family doesn't save trouble!" Zhuo Zhaojie said bitterly, "The Bai family has always refused to give Fangzi, you must know that my second aunt is the 'daughter' of the Bai family, when the Bai family's grandfather was still alive, I highly respected my grandfather, Rao is so, my grandfather because he doesn't care about receiving the Bai family's candied fruit every year, and he asked the recipe to do it himself, and the Bai family's grandfather also pushed it without hesitation!" ”

Ning Shaobi stared at her for a moment and said, "Have you ever thought about why the Bai family has an ancestral precept that is not passed on?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said: "People don't like to copy out such a secret recipe, that's ......."

"They don't sell either, they only give it away." Ning Shaobi said, "Even though the Bai family is also a family of slaves and maids, but up and down the Moling, there are many people who get candied fruits from their families, right?" Have you ever calculated how much they have to 'spend' to make this candied fruit every year? In contrast, since they don't make a living by selling candied fruits, why don't they ask for 'sex' and copy the recipe to others? Don't talk about preserves, do you know that in Chang'an, the signature dishes in the century-old shops are really powerful and want to get up, and they are not unwilling to give them. ”

"This ......," Zhuo Zhaojie said.

Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "Alas, I know that you must not have thought about it - isn't the Bai family doing this to maintain connections?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie asked in surprise: "What?" ”

"You see, this candied recipe was handed down by the ancestor of the Bai family, and it has never been copied by others, but if there is someone who likes it, they are willing to give it to ...... It's just that have you ever seen the Bai family give it to ordinary people's homes? Ning Shaobi said lazily, "The mountain chief of Huaixing Academy has a copy, the old Hanlin family has it, and it is estimated that the Song family, Lianjia and other big families in the city also have it, right?" But isn't it true that everyone can go to the 'door' to get one? ”

Seeing Zhuo Zhaojie frowning thoughtfully, Ning Shaobi said again, "And the Bai family's candied fruit is so good, if the shop comes out, it is not surprising to say that the wealth is extensive, do you know why they don't open it?" ”

"Why?" Zhuo Zhaojie asked subconsciously.

Ning Shaobi said: "Of course, it's to prevent people like you from buying it." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised: "Huh? ”

"The people who are qualified to be given candied fruit by them are not short of the few coins that buy candied fruit, because the Bai family only gives it but not sells it, and there is no place next to it that can be made compared to their family, if you want to eat it, you can only accept it, so it is equivalent to owing the Bai family a favor, and they will send it after the candied fruit is eaten, and the favor will always be there, although it is only a small candied fruit, and the 'friendship' over the years can not be deep." Ning Shaobi said leisurely, "If the Bai family opens a candied fruit shop, let alone Youfu, it's you, it's impossible to buy candied fruit with monthly money or something, right?" Will you still ask them to send it? Since others 'spent' money to buy candied fruit, of course they don't owe the Bai family favor, right? ”

Zhuo Zhaojie frowned: "There is still such a joint?" ”

"So as long as I have a prescription, I will never ask for preserves." Ning Shaobi said, "Otherwise, they will continue to send, and the favor will also be accumulated in a steady stream, it is better to get the prescription for 'sex' once, and then think of a way to return this favor - I don't like to always owe others!" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said cautiously: "But...... What if the Bai family refuses to give it? ”

"The Bai family guards this recipe just to accumulate favors, so that even if the descendants are mediocre, they can maintain their family reputation by relying on this favor, and try to make a comeback." Ning Shaobi said clearly, "This son of the world is not fooled, if they don't give it, it will be a feud with the son of this world, do you think they have accumulated several generations of favors, will they just use it to eliminate the anger of this son?" ”

"But the Bai family's recipe is never copied by others." Zhuo Zhaojie said, "Once this example is opened......

Ning Shaobi said: "Just don't let people know?" ”

“…… Do you have to ask for it? Zhuo Zhaojie asked tentatively.

Ning Shaobi nodded and squinted at her: "What do you want to say?" ”

What else can Zhuo Zhaojie say, his life was saved by him, but now he eats him and lives him, but he can't even save his life...... Ning Shaobi didn't say anything like this, she really didn't have the face to stop this, so she had to whisper: "Next month, the nineteenth is the birthday of the old lady Lu of the Bai family, although they may not send you a post, but if you take the initiative to go to the 'door', I think the old lady Lu will be very happy...... The Bai family is now in charge of Old Madam Lu. ”

"Understood, do you want this son to talk to the Bai family well?" Ning Shaobi said, "It's not a difficult thing, as long as Old Madam Lu is a smart person, this son will naturally not embarrass her, if the children of the Bai family are on the list in the future, this son will give them a bright future." ”

Hearing his promise, Zhuo Zhaojie breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he really couldn't live with the Bai family this time...... Who would have thought that an unintentional sentence would lead to such an incident......

The two were chatting without a word, and suddenly heard an eagle chirp outside, Ning Shaobi immediately stood up, walked quickly to the window and pushed the window open, whistled, and saw a black shadow roll in, bringing a strong wind, fluttering a few pieces of rice paper on the window, and steadily landing on the warped head case in front of Ning Shaobi, it was a black feather water bright falcon, screaming a few times, revealing a happy meaning, and rubbing his head against his 'chest'.

Ning Shaobi hurriedly blocked it with her hand, casually 'touched' two feathers, and said, "You're bored too?" ”

Although Zhuo Zhaojie was frightened by Yin Yuan on the Qingcao Lake, but this time it fell into the hands of Chen Luojia, thanks to the rescue of Yin Yuan, the fear of it is much less, and now seeing it, he also likes it a little, so he got up from the couch and said: "This falcon is so powerful, is it difficult to 'get' it?" ”

Ning Shaobi saw her praise for Yinyuan, and said proudly, "This is natural, Yinyuan is also famous among the falcons in Chang'an, and there are only a handful of such good falcons in the forbidden world. He added, "Ordinary falcons can be bought in the market, but this pair is rare, and it is a gift from today." ”

Although Zhuo Zhaojie didn't know anything about falcons, she had always used everything well, and when she heard that a good falcon like Yin Yuan was rare, she 'revealed' her disappointment, Ning Shaobi saw it, rolled her eyes, and said: "Yin Yuan and Yin Jian are a pair, if you have a little falcon in the future, this son can't give you one, but what do you exchange?" ”

"What do you want?" Zhuo Zhaojie asked hurriedly.

Ning Shaobi said: "This son likes rare treasures or something. ”

“…… I didn't. Zhuo Zhaojie said aggrievedly, "I haven't even heard of something like wine beads, and you don't take it seriously, what can I get into your eyes?" ”

Ning Shaobi said: "Well, that's what I said, then you can't change it with this world?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie thought for a long time, and said dejectedly: "Hmm." ”

Ning Shaobi teased her: "Or can you think of a way to persuade this son to give it to you?" ”

Hearing this, Zhuo Zhaojie was overjoyed and said, "Are you willing to send it to me directly?" ”

“…… No way! Ning Shaobi said categorically.

Zhuo Zhaojie felt that he had been tricked, and said angrily and ashamedly: "You are a person! I won't tell you! She pulled down the tent angrily, 'covered' her head with the quilt, and shrank in angrily.

Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "Alas, why are you so easy to get angry? ”

Zhuo Zhaojie hummed in the quilt: "Because I am the only 'female' son who is difficult to raise with a 'female'!" What more do you want to say? ”

"It seems that there is nothing else to say......" Ning Shaobi thought for a moment and said, "Or do you have your own son?" ”

"You!" Zhuo Zhaojie ripped off the quilt and said angrily: "You disciple! Get me out! ”

Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "Hey, this is the place of this son, right?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie glared at him for a long time, buried his head in the quilt angrily, and ignored him.

Ning Shaobi teased her a few more words, seeing that she had made up her mind to ignore herself, her eyes rolled, and suddenly 'touched' 'touched' Yin Yuan, pointed to Zhuo Zhaojie's quilt, and gestured to it, Yin Yuan understood, raised his wings, swept through the inner room like a violent wind, and tore the tent with a "bang" - such a loud momentum, but it fell lightly on the edge of the couch, and then, it opened its mouth, grabbed the corner of the quilt, and pulled it back violently!

Zhuo Zhaojie was caught off guard, and wrapped himself in the quilt again, almost falling down with it, he turned his head in shock and anger, and almost fainted out of breath when he saw what Yin Yuan did! Angrily shouted, "You! Ning Shaobi, you are so shameless! ”

Ning Shaobi was already smiling, and pretended to be serious: "Hey, Yinyuan, what are you doing?" It's really rude, why don't you stop it quickly? ”

These words were so insincere, Zhuo Zhaojie was so angry that his eyes darkened, and he said angrily: "Why don't you come over and tell it to stop...... No, shut up! ”

Ning Shaobi couldn't help but smile and said: "You must know that Yin Yuan has always been boring these days, it is rare for it to be so interested, you like it again, what's wrong with being close to it?" Besides, the ancients said that the beauty of the 'female' son is the so-called sinking fish and falling geese, so that the son of this world can say, where is the vision of the wild goose comparable to the falcon hitting the abyss under the nine heavens? This sinking whale falcon is the real beauty! Are you unhappy that you barely reach the last two words? ”

"Who's going to get close to this flat-haired beast?! You-" Zhuo Zhaojie said angrily, "you tell it to go-my quilt!" You flat-haired brute, you! She was so angry that she picked up the 'jade' pillow and was about to smash it, shouting, "Are you loosening your mouth?!" ”

Seeing that she was going to hit herself with a 'jade' pillow, she suddenly exerted her strength - although half of the quilt was pressed under Zhuo Zhaojie, she was young and light, and she couldn't withstand the pull of the raptor, and she was dragged directly down by someone with the quilt at the moment - the 'jade' pillow was originally in her hand, so it fell to the pedal all of a sudden, Zhuo Zhaojie's forehead happened to hit it, and she was dizzy for a while, she tried to raise her head, and then she tilted, as if she had fainted!

"Poor Zhuo Xiaoniang!" Ning Shaobi didn't expect Yin Yuan to drag Zhuo Zhaojie down, he was taken aback, and hurriedly asked Yin Yuan to loosen his mouth, but Zhuo Zhaojie had already hit the 'jade' pillow, he walked over with a smile and squatted on the side of his foot and pushed her, "Hey? ”

Zhuo Zhaojie didn't move.

Yin Yuan stood obediently next to him, well-behaved and innocent.

Ning Shaobi pushed Zhuo Zhaojie's shoulder again, and was about to continue calling, when suddenly Zhuo Zhaojie opened his eyes, 'revealed' a touch of anger and pride, raised his hand and gave him a punch, which hit him in the heart!

"You ......" Ning Shaobi just said a word, and the whole body feather 'feather' of Yin Yuan, who was still well-behaved and tame just now, suddenly stood upside down, screamed angrily, stretched out his beak that was as hard as iron, and pecked at Zhuo Zhaojie unceremoniously!
