Chapter Twenty-Three: Don't Call Me Flower Girl
Hua Banxia is not annoyed by this little guy's attitude, after all, everyone talks like this in modern times. What I am unhappy about is that Cheng Ze, a stupid person, has been repeatedly calling himself a flower girl, so that his mind is full of pictures of pigs running.
"Cheng Gongzi, please call me 'Banxia Girl', or call me Hua Banxia directly, and let me hear a flower girl, I want your life!" Hua Banxia looked at Cheng Ze and said through gritted teeth.
Why is that? Aren't you surnamed Hua, shouldn't you be called Hua ......", the more Cheng Ze said, the more he lost confidence, looking at Hua Banxia's expression of wanting to eat people, he quickly fled back.
"What's that, I'll go to my father first, little sixth son, I'm so good at serving the girl", Cheng Ze finished speaking, and hurriedly ran into the house.
"Hmph, count you as acquaintances", Hua Banxia looked at Cheng Ze's back and ran away a little funny, he was just joking, as for being so afraid.
The little guy who was called Xiao Liuzi politely led the way for Hua Banxia in front, and Hua Banxia really saw the grandeur of the ancient courtyard.
After all, Huamanlou is a place to do business, except for a three-story hexagonal building that is the main reception and rest place for the girls, there is only one large backyard for people to live.
This big family is different, the standard three-in, three-out compound, from the street door is a courtyard, upside down room, rain shelter, hanging flower door, that is all proper.
After the weeping flower door is the second courtyard, that is, the main courtyard in the house, on both sides are the east and west wings, in front of the main house is the main house, and there are ear rooms on both sides of the main house.
In the courtyard of the second courtyard, there are flowers, trees, a courtyard lake, and an armory table.
From the side of the ear room again to the Sanjin Courtyard, this is the back kitchen of the house, but also the place where the people live, the smell of fireworks is the strongest.
Xiao Liuzi led Hua Banxia to the kitchen, "Uncle Lin, is lunch ready?" Xiao Liuzi stood at the door of the kitchen and greeted the people inside.
After a while, I saw a fat cook, wiping his hands with his apron and coming out, "This is just going to be done, what are you doing!" ”。
The fat cook's angry voice, that tone sounded as if there was a lot of power in this mansion.
The fat cook saw a girl standing next to Xiao Liuzi, looked at the things in Hua Banxia's back basket, and said disdainfully, "Sending things?" Just put it down, what are you still telling me to do", after saying that, he turned his head and went into the kitchen again.
Before Xiao Liuzi could say anything, the fat cook left, glanced at Hua Banxia anxiously, and stepped into the kitchen.
I don't know what Xiao Liuzi said to the fat cook, when the two came out again, the fat cook's disdainful eyes that looked at Hua Banxia turned into hostile eyes.
"This is the flower girl, the young master specially explained, I will listen to the flower girl for lunch today", Xiao Liuzi bent down slightly, and said to the fat cook flatteringly.
The fat cook's brows furrowed even more, and his eyes couldn't stop looking Hua Banxia up and down, "Just this little girl, what ability does she have to rob Lao Tzu of his job!" ”
It turned out that the fat cook thought that Hua Banxia was here to replace him in the kitchen of Chengfu, no wonder he was so hostile to himself.
"Chef Lin, can you borrow a kitchen?" Hua Banxia didn't have time to explain, anyway, he didn't come to rob him of his job, and looking at the situation, even if he bothered to explain this fat cook, he wouldn't believe it.
"No!" The fat cook hugged his thick arms and looked at Hua Banxia with contempt with his head raised.
Hua Banxia raised his eyebrows slightly, it just so happened that he didn't want to stay here anyway, if this fat cook's stop could really let him leave, it would be great.
"Okay, little sixth brother, please go and talk to your young master, I'll go first", Hua Banxia said politely to Xiao Liuzi.
"This ......", Xiao Liuzi was a little embarrassed.
"Little Sixth Brother, you just told the truth, I believe that your young master will not blame you."
Xiao Liuzi looked at Hua Banxia, and then looked at the fat cook, it was really impossible. You can only ask the two of you with a pleading look to see who takes a step back first.
"Little Sixth Brother, it's not that I don't want to, I can't do anything about it", Hua Banxia spread his hands, saying that he couldn't help it.
Xiao Liuzi was so anxious that the two of them continued to stalemate like this, and there would be no food in the house.
"That's it, let's not embarrass Xiao Liuzi, there are three stoves in the kitchen, I'll only borrow one bite, and I'll leave after finishing the things I brought", Hua Banxia doesn't care if they can eat in Chengfu or not, it's noon, and they haven't eaten yet, so they have to go home after finishing it quickly, so as not to worry about Qiao Da.
"Leave when you're done cooking, so you mean you don't cook the other dishes?" The fat cook squinted at Hua Banxia, "It seems that you are going to compete with me in cooking, what a big guts, Lao Tzu has answered your battle!" ”
Hua Banxia was speechless, this person's brain hole is too big, when did he say that he wanted to compare cooking skills with him.
But if you think about it carefully, if two people cook the same table of food, then the person who eats will definitely compare, and there will be wins and losses if there is comparison, no wonder the fat cook will say that he wants to compare his cooking skills with him.
"I'm not ......", Hua Banxia was just about to explain, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly paused, and the words changed, "Okay, since there is a competition, then there must be a lottery, let's say, how much silver to bet!" ”
Hua Banxia preemptively took the initiative to lead the color head to the silver, but he was not interested in jade pendants, hairpins, jewelry or other ghost color heads, and it was not as good as silver.
The fat cook was angry when he saw Hua Banxia's confident appearance, and without thinking too much, he directly made a bet of five taels of silver.
Hua Banxia raised his eyebrows and smiled unscrupulously, five taels is five taels, better than nothing.
Xiao Liuzi saw that Hua Banxia and Lin Daniu decided to make a gamble so happily, and he was a little dumbfounded, and when he reacted, he was already on his way to the front hall
Young master, there's a good show, Xiao Liuzi is here to call you, wait for me......
At this time, Cheng Ze was sitting in the front hall with his wife listening to his father's broken thoughts, dizzy and sitting like pins and needles. If nothing else, just because the weather has been hot and rainy in recent days, the crops of the villagers are facing a desperate situation of drought and death.
Cheng Ze watched his father pacing back and forth in the hall, dizzy, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Obviously, his father's bad face is not because of himself, he still ran on the pole, "This little sixth son, lying about the military situation, look back and see how I clean him up."
Cheng Ze muttered silently, for fear that his father would hear it and provoke him, and he would be beaten up if he didn't cause trouble.
looked at her mother, her face was also full of worry, and her eyes had been worried about her father, but she couldn't solve his worries and problems, so she could only be in a hurry.
Cheng Ze held his forehead, and said that he couldn't understand a desperate husband and wife like his wife, in this world, who left and who didn't eat?
Speaking of eating, I don't know how the girl in Banxia is, I don't know if she can do it, it doesn't matter if she can't do it well, I'm tired of eating the dishes in the house and the city all day long, and it's good to take a bite of country food once in a while.
The more Cheng Ze thought about it, the happier he became, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, he didn't even notice it, thinking of Hua Banxia, a girl, he could laugh under the majesty of his father.
"Young master......", how dare Xiao Liuzi enter the house, he only dared to squat at the door, showing one eye to look at his young master, and called in a low voice.
Cheng Ze thought about it and didn't hear Xiao Liuzi's voice, if he was put on hold, with his own internal strength, Xiao Liuzi would be able to hear it when he approached the front hall.
"Young master......", Xiao Liuzi called again, wondering what's wrong today?" Squeak squeak! ”
Haven't heard yet? Xiao Liuzi almost wanted to cry, but if he hadn't called the young master to watch this good show, he would have died with regret.
"Who's out there!" Cheng Ze didn't hear it, but he heard it, when he was irritable, any sound would be infinitely amplified, it was all noise.
Cheng Ze was frightened by his father's stern voice, and also looked outside. Xiao Liuzi secretly screamed that it was not good, but he could only bow forward.
"Little Liuzi? What's the matter?"* asked with a straight face with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Liuzi was so nervous that he didn't dare to look up, and stammered, "Back to the master, the little one... The little one is here to invite the young master, and there is something that the young master needs to judge."
* Glancing at the son sitting on the side, what do you want him to judge?
"Whatever needs to be judged by him, the official wants to listen", * I hated my son for not being angry, judging which thing he did, showing himself as an official, and forcibly listening.
Cheng Ze said that he was also innocent and curious, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Back to the master, it's the young master, the young master saw that you were overthinking and lost your appetite, so he invited a sister-in-law from outside to cook some new dishes for you, no, Uncle Lin was not convinced, and the two of them cooked together, so that the old master and the young master judged who was good and who was bad."
Of course, Xiao Liuzi picked what he could say, how dare he say the gambling contract, if he let the master know that someone dared to gamble in the house, then everyone would have to be punished and kneeling.
"Really?" Cheng Ze was a little incredible, he didn't expect this girl to be so restless, but he really wanted to know the result.
"Ahem, huh!" * Angry, sure enough, I can't pay too much attention to my son's affairs, and I don't have anything serious.
Mrs. Cheng Fu Yu Yan on the side hurriedly comforted, "Master Mo is angry, Ze'er is also kind, look at you, you have lost a lot of weight recently, let's help judge and judge, relax and relax."
Yu Shi took advantage of the situation to help * to the seat and sat down, and at the same time gave Cheng Ze a look.
Cheng Ze immediately reacted, and cooperated with his mother and said, "Yes, Dad, relax and relax, maybe you will pay attention to it if you have a good rest."
"Dad, mother, then you wait first, I'll take a look, Mu'er is a picky eater, I'll warn and warn that sister-in-law", Cheng Ze was anxious to leave this place and moved out of his sister Cheng Mu as an excuse.
