Chapter 25: A Word Strikes at the Door
Although the dishes are the most common home-cooked dishes, the guests and hosts enjoy the meal.
Especially women, they love to listen to Yan Yan speak. As soon as Yan Yan opened her mouth, she laughed, and she kept laughing after a meal, and even Bi Cheng, who had a dull personality, was infected by the woman's cheerful smile, and her eyebrows stretched a lot.
The woman's name is Mu Juan'er, she is Bi Cheng's wife, and she has a disease in her eyes.
was chatting about something else, Yan Yan suddenly turned his eyes to Bi Cheng, who had been silent, and said something completely irrelevant: "Bi Cheng, do you know how your chef's youngest daughter died?"
Bi Cheng didn't know why, and looked at her with a frown.
Yan Yan smiled: "I don't mean anything else, I just heard that the beasts in the mountains have been particularly irritable recently." I was eating in your restaurant today, and I heard from the guy that your chef's youngest daughter died suddenly, so I was curious to ask. ”
Bi Cheng shook his head: "I don't know the specifics, I knew that the day before was fine, but the next day suddenly there was no one." ”
Yan Yan ignored Bi Cheng after hearing this, and turned back to Mu Juan'er and said: "Recently, there have always been accidents in the mountains, and our Luwu City is close to Zeshui, so we should be more careful." Juan'er's eyes are inconvenient, so don't go out with the children during this time. ”
Mu Juan'er smiled gently: "How can a child go out of the city to play, at most, he will run wildly for a while at the mound next to the east city wall." ”
The two chatted for a while, the coarse tea in the pot was weak, and the drum was more than three times.
Yan Yan got up and stretched his waist: "It's not early, I'll go back." I'll be with you tomorrow. After speaking, he patted the back of Mu Juan'er's hand and walked out.
Mu Juan'er stood up on the table, and stretched out her hand in the direction where Yan Yan's footsteps came: "It's so enjoyable to talk to you, you have to come often." ”
"Hmm!" Yan Yan replied and was about to cross the threshold of the hall.
Mu Juan'er turned her face to Bi Cheng and said, "You go and send Miss Yan." ”
Bi Cheng stood still and did not speak.
Yan Yan stopped in the threshold and looked back at him.
Looking at Yan Yan's smiling eyes, Bi Cheng remembered what she said in the courtyard before, and furrowed his eyebrows, a little impatient: "Doesn't she live next door." ”
Mu Juan'er frowned slightly: "The road is not far, but it's so late, she is a girl, and she is always uneasy." It's okay for you to go on a trip. ”
Bi Cheng didn't say anything more, and in Yan Yan's smiling eyes, he stepped out of the hall first.
Yan Yan turned his head and smiled at Mu Juan'er, who was standing at the table, "Juan'er, good night." ”
Mu Juan'er was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to understand the meaning of her strange words, and nodded vigorously with a smile: "Well, you also have good night!"
What a lovely little woman.
Yan Yan turned around and saw Bi Chengli waiting by the courtyard gate, the displeasure in his silent eyes was obvious, and there was exploration.
Next door is the courtyard where Yan Yan lives, stepping into the courtyard, and was about to take the courtyard door with his hand, but the wooden door was suddenly held up by a big hand that suddenly stretched out.
Yan Yan turned his head and looked at Bi Cheng's silent and serious eyes.
"Why are you approaching Juan'er, what is your purpose?" the defensive tone was particularly obvious, like a beast that protects its food.
Yan Yan: "I've already said why. ”
Bi Cheng: "Why me?"
Yan Yan's face was shrouded in the thick of the night, obscure, and his emotions were difficult to distinguish, but his tone was a little soother than the earlier cleverness: "Because you are suitable, because I need it." ”
Bi Cheng: "......"
I always felt that there was something wrong with talking to this girl.
Although the man was silent, his hand was still pressed against the door panel, and this body language was obviously not to understand the situation.
Yan Yan sighed: "I went to Haoyuan Tower at noon today, and I also tasted the dishes you cooked, and they tasted good, but I was lucky." ”
Bi Cheng: "......"
Started talking nonsense again.
For the first time, I heard that tasting a dish can also taste good or bad luck...... This girl speaks with one leg in the sky and one mouth on the ground, how can he answer it?
Seeing that Bi Cheng was even more silent, Yan Yanjue teased this honest man for fun.
However, this man couldn't stand the joke, Yan Yan was afraid that he would run away, so he put away his joke and said business: "Your cooking tastes good, it can be seen that you have worked hard." If the portion is sufficient, it means that you have a good character. If you are unlucky, it means that you will definitely lose this competition for the chef of Haoyuan Building!"
Bi Cheng looked up: "Why?"
A word poked at his life.
Yan Yan casually combed the broken hair on his sideburns, and showed that kind of Yan Yan smile: "The apprentice will tell you." ”
Bi Cheng's eyes were cold, his wrist was flipped, and the white and cold blade of the sleeve knife was already against Yan Yan's small throat: "You trick me!"
The corners of Yan Yan's lips were always smiling, and he didn't see half of the panic of the sharp blade.
Raising his onion white fingers, he gently pushed the sharp blade between his throats, and opened his mouth with a thousand pounds: "I didn't play you, I don't need to say much at this moment, I will know tomorrow." ”
As he spoke, Yan Yan's gaze moved down slightly, falling on Bi Cheng's knife-holding hand.
The man's palm bones are wide, the tiger's mouth has a thick old callus, and the thumb has been slightly deformed due to the perennial grip of the hard weapon.
These hands seem to silently pour out a period of hard work.
Yan Yan sighed in his heart: It's a pity
Bi Cheng slowly withdrew the short blade, took a step back, and stood by the door, his voice had returned to normal: "What did you mean by asking about the cause of death of the chef's daughter just now?"
Yan Yan: "Literally. ”
Bi Cheng twisted his eyebrows again: "Why did Zeshui be mentioned in particular?"
Yan Yan smiled.
This man looks rough, but he is actually very careful.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of the South Mountains", five hundred miles to the east, is called the mountain of Lu Wu...... Ze water out of the Yan, the water has a beast, the name is Gu Eagle, its shape is like a carving and has horns, its sound is like a baby, it is a cannibal. ”
After finishing the book, Yan Yan looked at Bi Cheng quietly: "You are a local, you should have heard of this thing as a Gu carving." ”
Bi Cheng was stunned: "That's a rumor, no one has ever seen what a Gu carving looks like." ”
Yan Yan: "So, you are likely to be the luckiest one in your family, and you will have the opportunity to witness the true face of the Gu Eagle with your own eyes." ”
Bi Cheng looked serious: "So, you are a demon hunter?"
Yan Yan: "Chef!"
Bi Cheng: "......"
Believe you, a ghost!

Haoyuan Building is the property of the richest man in Luwu City, and it is also the largest wine store in Luwu City. Therefore, the selection of a new chef for Haoyuan Lou naturally aroused the keen attention of the people in the city.
Mr. Hao personally promised that the new chef of Haoyuan Building would be hired into the mansion and personally host the wedding banquet of Mr. Hao's only daughter.
Mr. Hao's choice of chef is also very fair, no matter what else, just look at word of mouth.
As a chef, word of mouth is naturally reflected in the frequency of customers' orders.
Bi Cheng is one of the chefs in charge of the competing chefs, and he is also quite a powerful and prestigious one. Therefore, for this chef competition, Bi Cheng has always been confident.
Since the beginning of the campaign, Bi Cheng has been smooth sailing, and these days, just looking at the feedback from customers and the frequency of ordering his cooking, you can see that he has a good reputation. But since listening to Yan Yan's brainless words last night, Bi Cheng hasn't slept all night.
He suddenly felt a little inexplicably irritable in his heart, and he had some indescribable, not very good premonitions......
