Chapter Twenty-Three: The Witch Butler's Trick
Turning around and returning to Ye Yuge, it was almost noon, and there was no guard outside the gate, thinking that he was going to the main hall to eat, Ye Yu didn't know the specific time now, maybe Fifth Sister Hu had already prepared a meal and sent it to his residence.
"If Fifth Sister Hu hadn't gone to my residence before me and didn't see anyone, she would definitely look for me everywhere. Thinking like this, Ye Yu quickened his pace and went straight back to his residence.
At noon, the weather in Jieyu Town began to get hot, and the temperature of the room also rose, seeing that Fifth Sister Hu had not come over, Ye Yu summoned the black cloak and the book given to him by the witch housekeeper as soon as he entered the house, and then changed into thin clothes,
"Bell Bell ······"
"It's coming. Ye Yu answered, put the cloak and book under the quilt, pushed the door open, and the person standing at the door carrying the food box was not Sister Hu, but Sister Hu Qijie.
"You just came back, the guard said that he hadn't seen you come back when he was eating, and I was still wondering if I should come over at this time, but it's good that you're here, eat it while it's hot." Sister Hu Qijie walked into the house and put down the food box.
Ye Yu smiled, took out the flute from his coat pocket and handed it to Hu Qijie, and said, "This is the flute you want." ”
Seeing the flute appear in Ye Yu's hand, Hu Qijie's face instantly turned red, and she said a little unnaturally: "It turns out that you have already seen the purpose of my coming to deliver food." ”
"It's a good way to take into account other people's feelings. Ye Yu said with a smile, skillfully resolving the awkward atmosphere.
Since knowing each other, Ye Yu's impression on everyone here is not the kind of aggressive master image, after a little shyness, Hu Qijie also took the flute from Ye Yu's hand without any scruples, with an elegant smile on her face, but it looks a little cute, in fact, the age difference between Ye Yu and Hu Qijie is not big, but Hu Qijie at this time is more like a little sister.
"Alright, you go ahead, I don't have anything to trouble you with. Ye Yu said.
"Oh, good. Seventh Sister Hu came back to her senses, answered the call and walked outside the house, walked to the door and suddenly stopped, turned to Ye Yu and said, "By the way, Fifth Sister Hu specially instructed me to say a word to you before I came over, you can eat this meal with confidence." ”
Ye Yu nodded, and Sister Hu Qi didn't say anything more and closed the door.
Eating is a pleasant thing, but when it comes to Ye Yu, it is completely different, every meal may make him feel like he is walking on the tip of a knife, but it has always been Sister Hu who takes care of Ye Yu's food, since Sister Hu has said so, then you can eat boldly with confidence.
When you open the food box, the top layer is a bowl of rice, in the middle is a meat dish and a vegetable, and the bottom layer is a bowl of soup.
Looking at the hot steam, it should have just come out of the pot, Ye Yu took a deep breath of fragrance, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so fragrant!"
Pick up the chopsticks, put a piece of meat in your mouth, bite down, the outside is crispy, the inside is full of juice, and suddenly feel the oil juice rolling in the mouth, the delicious gravy with the mellow oil juice, the more you eat, the more you eat, the more flavorful.
I don't know if it's the psychological effect or the physical exertion in the morning is too much, the amount of food at noon today is much larger than in the past, and when the last bite of food is swallowed, Ye Yu feels that he can still eat.
Lifting the quilt, Ye Yu was not in a hurry to put the cloak on his body to try the effect, his mind fell on the book, the whole book was a little heavy in his hand, the printing specifications on it belonged to a very old one, and there was a seal on the edge of the page, which Ye Yu didn't notice at first, and pointed the seal at himself, which read, "If you pick it up, please return it to the witch housekeeper of the shop at No. 23 Chihuang Avenue in the east immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences." ”
"This thing is not a precious thing, can it be so ······" Ye Yu rolled his eyes and complained a little crying and laughing.
Now that the thing is Ye Yu's, there is no need to keep the seal, tear off the seal, open the crimson cover, suddenly the palm stiffened, and a strange feeling suddenly surged in his heart, and then the flowing air shook violently, and a trace of hazel essence seeped out from the first page, and drilled into the heart of Ye Yu's eyebrows with lightning speed.
It's just a momentary thing, Ye Yu didn't react at all, and subconsciously touched his eyebrows, except for the normal skin touch, there was no cold liquid and broken *, but he still waved his hands uneasily, urging the essence, like an all-round scan, through the essence to feel whether there was a vision in the body.
After some inspection, there was nothing wrong with it, Ye Yu didn't want to have any problems, but it made Ye Yu feel a lot more soothed, picked up the book in his hand again and looked at it, he was stunned for a moment, and his face was red and red in an instant, this thick book is full of ink paintings, in the painting, naked men and women are close to each other, lingering and compassionate, each painting style is novel, the picture is delicate and full, the male is burly and wonderful, the female is plump and beautiful, and you can feel the passion of the love of fish and water between men and women through the painting.
Looking at the back, in addition to the changes in the character scenes, the book shows more posture and charm, this is a collection of Spring Palace, although Ye Yu has tried his best to restrain himself, but the appearance of Xiao Tilt of the Tilting Building gradually appeared in his mind, Xiao Tilt is like doing the movements of the characters in the ink painting in front of him, and he is approaching Ye Yu step by step.
In the confusion, it was like a dream about to be interrupted by the sudden interruption of the ending, Ye Yu's heart moved, woke up, and closed the book in a distraction.
But fortunately, Ye Yu was only a nine-year-old child, and he didn't experience it, so he calmed down after a while, but he was still shocked, looking at this book, he was sure that it was a prank by the witch housekeeper, and regretted that he didn't confirm it in front of the witch housekeeper, and was put on the spot by the witch housekeeper.
Now things are in his hands, this is the witch butler knows best, if the witch butler splashes dirty water on him, he explains to anyone that it is the witch butler's hands and feet, even if someone believes what he says, the witch butler who collects strange things is already a strange person in the eyes of everyone, which is harmless to the witch butler, but his explanation is equivalent to admitting that he has seen it, which is even more unfavorable to him, so thinking about it, whether he explains it or not will only let himself fall into the trap set by the witch butler.
"Only destroy the book. ”
Ye Yu made up his mind, no matter how difficult the witch steward would make it difficult for him in the future, he must not let this book become evidence against him, but when he started, Ye Yu couldn't help but gasp, no matter how hard he tried, the closed book could no longer be opened, and it slammed on the ground, and the wooden board was loose and there was no trace of damage to the book.
"Fuck your uncle!" he stepped on his feet again as if he was crazy, and scolded the witch butler again in his heart.
Ye Yu picked up the book and ran to the edge of the creek behind the house, took off his clothes and slowly walked to the middle of the stream, took a deep breath and dived to the bottom of the water, cut open the large pebbles with his hands, buried the book in the silt, and then re-paved the pebbles, and waited for the stirred up silt to settle down, and he couldn't see any difference from before.
Just as Ye Yu swam back to the shore to wash off the mud on his hands and prepare to return to the house, the voice of the witch housekeeper sounded from his body, "Are you still satisfied with the content of the book?"
