The secret guard hiding in the shadows was broken in his heart, what kind of ecstasy soup did that girl named Mu Xiaochu pour into their young master, and actually let their young master say such a thing!

Seeing this, Lin De waved his hand and looked helpless, "Forget it, you can decide your own affairs, I'll go back to sleep first." ”

He saw that Qi Ziyan would not be a simple person in the future, but he could say such things so seriously, I was afraid that Xiao Chu would have been targeted a long time ago, and she didn't know it yet.

That's it, as long as he doesn't do anything to hurt Xiao Chu.

"...... Uncle Linde?" Looking at the back of Lin De leaving, Mu Xiaochu was stunned.

"Alright, let's go to sleep, I'm tired all day." After that, Qi Ziyan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and couldn't wait to pull Mu Xiaochu to their room.

At the same time, I couldn't help but add a favorability to Linde's approach.

In the room, Mu Xiaochu hesitated for a while and said, "Qi Ziyan, don't joke with me next time." ”

Qi Ziyan approached with a serious face, "I'm not kidding, as long as I can be by your side, I can have any identity, look at my serious expression." ”

"......I'll go wash up first." Mu Xiaochu rolled his eyes and got up to wash.

Qi Ziyan: "......"

Three days later.

At the gate of the courtyard, Lin De, who came back with a bag of flour, hesitated and said, "Xiao Chu, did you really decide to do this?" ”

Mu Xiaochu stopped drying herbs, and his tone was brisk, "Yes, didn't Uncle Lin agree before, and now you can't regret it." ”

When Qi Ziyan saw it, he immediately put down the wood in his hand and brought it to his side, "Xiao Chu, let me help you." ”

Mu Xiaochu ignored him and continued to tidy up, "No need, I'm not tired of drying herbs, I can do it myself." ”

After the herbs were sorted out, Mu Xiaochu came to the kitchen with the flour.

Half an hour later, there was a smell in the kitchen.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaochu shouted towards the courtyard, "Uncle Lin De, Qi Ziyan, the pastry is ready, come and taste it-"

"Xiao Chu, this pastry is delicious." After Qi Ziyan tasted it, his inky black eyes lit up, and he quickly stuffed the rest of the pastries into his mouth.

It turned out that the pastry I ate in my previous life was invented by Xiao Chu!

"It's really delicious, much better than ordinary pastries." After tasting it, Linde also gave a high evaluation.

Seeing the attitude of the two of them, Mu Xiaochu's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, obviously in a good mood, "That's good, then let's use it to make money in a few days." ”

Linde did not hesitate to praise herself, "I didn't expect Xiao Chu to say that he would make pastries, but it was true, but it impressed me." ”

Since hearing Xiao Chu say that he didn't want to be a person who sits on the mountain and wants to find something to do, Linde feels more and more that she is much better than before.

Of course, he defined this sudden excellence as the growth after losing his parents, and Gu didn't have any other questions, more relief and distress.

"Uncle Linde, don't make fun of me." Mu Xiaochu scratched his head a little embarrassed, and his face gradually became a layer of red, which was extremely attractive under the sunlight.

Naturally, only Qi Ziyan saw this beautiful scenery, because Linde was still tasting the pastry in his hand at this time.

Lin De stuffed all the pastries into his mouth in one go, and took another piece with a smile in his eyes, "Haha-how come, your pastry, it tastes fragrant but not greasy, it melts in your mouth, you know, when Uncle Lin De was still studying in the early years, he had the opportunity to go to the capital a few times, I see, this one you make is better than the one in the capital." ”

Mu Xiaochu suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Uncle Lin De, don't you see the imperial examination?" ”

After Mu Xiaochu's words, Lin De fell into deep thought, and after a while, he said casually: "No, since Xiao Chu has decided to buy pastries, then Uncle Lin De will give you a start, don't ask for wages, just eat and live." ”

Although he is nominally Mu Xiaochu's adopter, he still has to be divided, and he can't take advantage of a junior.

"Since that's the case, then I have an idea, which is to let Uncle Lin De take a stake." Mu Xiaochu also said the ideas he had thought of a long time ago.

"Stake?"

"Yes, we will divide the silver we get fifty-fifty." Mu Xiaochu briefly explained the shares.

After hearing this, Lin De was taken aback, his eyes were full of pride and pride, "I didn't expect Xiao Chu to know so much, I have to be ashamed." ”

Qi Ziyan on the side was also a little jealous when he heard the words of Lin De and Mu Xiaochu, "Xiaochu, what about me?" ”

He didn't want anything, he just wanted to see and prove his place in her heart.

Mu Xiaochu was puzzled, "What are you?" ”

“…… Xiaochu also gave me shares? ”

"That's fine, but we're fifty percent." Then he glanced at Qi Ziyan, who didn't speak, "Are you not satisfied?" ”

Qi Ziyan smiled in his eyes, "Satisfied, I want to be satisfied." ”

and Xiao Chu are counted as one, does this mean that his status in Xiao Chu's mind is higher than Linde?

"Then in this case, the rest will be handed over to you, I still have something to do with Uncle Linde." After Mu Xiaochu finished speaking, he pulled Linde's sleeve and left.

After walking away, Lin De stopped and said, "Is there any place where Uncle Lin De is used in Xiao Chu, but let's say it first, if it has something to do with pastries, I'm not good at it at all." ”

Mu Xiaochu waved his hand and said, "No, I just want Uncle Lin De to help me write a few words." ”

After Lin De heard it, he patted his chest and promised, "That's okay, you Uncle Lin De can't guarantee anything else, at least you can still write the words." ”

When Mu Xiaochu heard this, the corners of his mouth hooked up a shallow arc, "I just know that Uncle Lin De will not let me down." ”

"Then what does Xiao Chu need to write?"

Mu Xiaochu wrote on the ground, "These are the words. ”

Early the next morning.

Mu Xiaochu set up a stall in a place with more people in the town.

However, there is also a sign with words written next to the stall - aftertaste color cake.

There are many pastries of various colors on the stall, some are large and some are small, but none of them have unique shapes and colors, which immediately attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Naturally, there are many more people who are attracted by the white flour steamed buns and gruel next to those pastries.

There were a lot of people gathered around, but most of them were watching, and no one dared to step forward, until the first person stepped forward: "These steamed buns and gruel are really given for free?" ”

"Yes, this old man, do you want one?" Mu Xiaochu said that he would take out a piece of steamed bread from the stall and hand it to the person, without a trace of contempt in his eyes.

After being puzzled for a while, he snatched the steamed bun in Mu Xiaochu's hand, and then kept stuffing it into his mouth.

Gradually, more and more people stepped forward to accept Mu Xiaochu's free steamed buns and gruel.

The more literate ones asked after seeing the words on Mu Xiaochu's sign, "What does this mean?" After speaking, he looked at the pastry, "Is this also free for us, aftertaste color cake?" ”

Mu Xiaochu said: "Yes, these are all free. ”

The visitor ate the colored cake in one bite, and a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes, "It's delicious, can I ask for more?" ”

Mu Xiaochu was apologetic, "I'm sorry, this is only a little bit per person." Then he pointed not far away, "If you're hungry, there are a lot of steamed buns and white porridge there." ”

The visitor looked at the things not far away, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes: he was not short of money, but he only came here after hearing that the pastries here were delicious, but he didn't expect that one person could only eat a little.

Just when the people were about to turn around and leave, Mu Xiaochu said: "But for a while, we will buy this kind of colored cake alone, I hope you can come over to cheer at that time." ”

When the people heard this, their eyes lit up, "What you said is true, then I will definitely come over to cheer at that time!" ”

A few days later.

After a while, a man with a hideous face walked over and shouted at Mu Xiaochu: "You are Mu Xiaochu? Don't you know that this is the place where our Uncle Zhou is in charge, ah-"

Qi Ziyan, who had just come out with something, walked up to Mu Xiaochu, held her hand and said softly, "Xiaochu, are you okay?" ”

Mu Xiaochu bit his lower lip, "It's okay, Uncle Lin De will be back later." ”

If she didn't come back, she would have to gamble with her own stitching.

"Yo, no matter who you come over, you have to pay me protection money today!" As he spoke, a man stepped forward and measured the wooden stick in his hand forward and threatened him.

They just saw that Linde, the only adult, was not there, so they chose to come over and make trouble, after all, two children are still much easier to deal with than adding an adult.

But what they didn't know was that even two children were not as easy to deal with as they thought.

What's more, there are secret guards hiding in the shadows.

"You ...... You are breaking the law in doing so. Mu Xiaochu looked directly at him and forced himself to calm down.

"Breaking the law, Lao Tzu is the king of the law here, if you don't call it today, hehe-brothers, smash me!"

"Yes, big brother." As he spoke, the people behind him began to pick up the wooden sticks in their hands and forget about the stall and walked forward.

However, before they came into contact with the stall, they heard Mu Xiaochu ask again: "Are you sure you want to come forward?" ”

"Little sister, if you're afraid, then get out of the way!" One of them said disdainfully, and then stepped forward.

But after getting close to Mu Xiaochu, she was so lightly touched by her and fell to the ground suddenly.

When the others saw this, their eyes were visibly frightened.

"Big brother, what now?" One of them turned back to the leader and asked the leader, with an unconsciously hint of fear in his tone.

The leader was angry and said: "What else can I do, isn't it just a little trick, I will go up and smash it, I still don't believe it, what kind of magic can she really use!" ”

It's just that if you listen carefully, you can hear a slight tremor in his tone.

Then the others listened to the words of the leader and stepped forward, but the next people who stepped forward all fell after approaching Mu Xiaochu without exception.

When the people saw this, they all clapped their hands and applauded, because they were often bullied by these bullies, and now they were very relieved to see them being bullied.

The leader pointed at Mu Xiaochu in a panic, "You...... What kind of tricks are you doing? ”

Qi Ziyan on the side knocked off the hand that was pointing at Mu Xiaochu, and shouted angrily: "Get out-"

Seeing that the effect he wanted had been achieved, Mu Xiaochu walked to the side of those who had fallen and touched them a few times, and then the unconscious people began to slowly wake up, and then looked at them with sharp eyes, "There will be a next time, but it will not be such a simple matter."
