Chapter 25: The Cook

Fang Xu told Fang Nian about Lan Xiaoqiu, and Fang Nian blamed: "The emperor's will, how can you disobey it, although Ruosu is your wife who has not passed the door, but you can't disobey the emperor's order because of this." ”

Fang Xu saw that Fang Nian was coughing vigorously, so he handed over the tea and relieved his father: "Fortunately, Li Tianba is dead, it can be regarded as the will of heaven, and the pacification of the bandits is also because I don't want the people of Li to be bullied. ”

"Is that Qiu'er reliable?" Fang Nian said worriedly.

"She shouldn't have any problems, because she saved Ruosu's lack of food, Ruosu treats her as her own sister, and we don't want to treat her badly."

"I heard she's a good cook? Where did you learn from? Mrs. Fang asked.

"Her origin is indeed suspicious, and I still don't know where she learned from." Fang Xu replied.

Fang Nian thought for a while and said: "It's better to pay more attention to this person, let her stay in the kitchen on weekdays, I always feel that she is not a simple character, even if she is simple now, it will definitely not be simple in the future." ”

"That's what my father said. It's just that my brother is quite concerned about her, and he informed Qiu'er of Li Tianba's death before me. Fang Xu said.

Fang Nian shook his head: "Your brother never looks at people, I'm really afraid that he will be deceived, he will go home?" ”

"Master, when will Fang Hao go home after recovering like Fang Xu? I don't know what I'm doing all day long, I'm idle and idle, if it weren't for the old man sending him to the border......" Speaking of this, Mrs. Fang hurriedly dumbfounded.

Fang Xu asked, "It's true that my father sent my brother to help me, but he didn't help anything." Although I can't do as well as my brother, I can handle it alone. Besides, I used a trick to capture Li Tianba and his gang, if it weren't for Ruosu, they would have fallen to the ground by now. The poor brother was also slapped by the copycat, but now it's okay, it's okay. ”

"How did Fang Hao get hurt?" Fang Nian was very concerned.

Fang Xu replied respectfully: "I heard that he was taken by Li Tianba's daughter, and chased after his brother to ask him to join him. ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Fang rolled her eyes and said: "It turned out to be a love species, and I don't know who gave birth to it, sticking flowers and grass everywhere, and I didn't help Shang Xu to return ......" Mrs. Fang was about to continue, but she heard Fang Nian say: "Okay, don't say it, if you didn't show him a face every day, he wouldn't have gone back to this home." Whatever he says, he is also my son, Fang Xu's brother, how you treat him, I know in my heart. ”

Mrs. Fang watched Fang Nian be carried out of the lobby by the maid, Mrs. Fang gritted her teeth and sighed: "What do you want me to do to him when I bring back the wild seeds born outside?" ”

Fang Xu handed over the tea: "Mother, don't be angry, didn't my father say that my brother's biological mother had died a long time ago?" If he didn't die, why didn't he show up now, and his mother didn't keep asking who his brother's biological mother was, they were all people lying in the coffin, so why bother with her. Mother is still the only mistress of the Fang family, and no one can shake your status in the Fang family. ”

Mrs. Fang had no intention of drinking tea, threw the tea heavily on the table, and still said indignantly: "For more than 20 years, seeing this evil obstacle in the Fang family every day, I feel uncomfortable. Your father must have thought that I had nothing to do for three years, so he gave birth to your brother outside. It's good that I got angry and gave birth to you. Son, if it weren't for you, I would have died in the well. Mrs. Fang was extremely aggrieved, because more than 20 years ago, when Fang Nian returned from the war, Mrs. Fang went far to greet her, but found that Fang Nian was holding a baby in her hand, Fang Nian said that the baby was born to another woman, and the woman died when she gave birth, so she could only bring the child back and let Mrs. Fang raise it.

When Mrs. Fang took the child, she felt that it was a great shame, but how could she blame her husband for messing with flowers and grass in front of her? It's all because he has nothing to do, but fortunately, in the coming year, Mrs. Fang added a boy to Fang Nian. For this child of unknown origin, it is regarded as a thorn in the flesh. Every time he tried to inquire about Fang Hao's biological mother, Fang Nian refused to say anything, even Fang Hao didn't know who his biological mother was, and he didn't know who her surname was.

Followed the subordinates all the way in the courtyard of the Fang family, Lan Xiaoqiu had not yet remembered the Marshal's Mansion clearly, but he was sent to the Fang family, although the Fang family was smaller than the Marshal's Mansion, but it was also in and out of the corridor, with rules and regulations, and the most important thing was the lack of Ruosu's heart pillar.

Lan Xiaoqiu was sent into the kitchen, this place is no better than the Marshal's Mansion, and they completely treat Lan Xiaoqiu as a subordinate.

Lan Xiaoqiu also knew that this cook was just washing vegetables and brushing dishes, and she couldn't touch the pot and spoon at all.

Except for Ah Gui, who was carrying water, few people in the kitchen talked to Lan Xiaoqiu.

After crossing over, the second job is to change from being in charge to helping the cook, or it is more appropriate to do chores.

On this day, Lan Xiaoqiu was washing the dishes, and Agui picked up water to help Lan Xiaoqiu pour it into the basin, but was stared at by Xiao Er, who was picking vegetables on the side: "Agui, look at you always help her, do you fall in love with others?" ”

Agui scratched his head and argued: "Don't talk nonsense. ”

Xiao Er saw Agui's face flush, and she was angry: "Madame told you to go to the front yard to fill the water tank." ”

"There are five tanks in the front yard, why do you need so much water?" Agui asked.

"Madame tells you, you just do it." Xiao Er opened Ah Gui and said to Lan Xiaoqiu: "Ah Gui still has a tank of water that is not full, you go and fetch water." ”

"Why me?" Lan Xiaoqiu saw that Xiao Er wanted to bully herself, Xiao Er said: "Agui helps you every day, what if you help Agui carry water?" ”

"Then why don't you pick it?" Lan Xiaoqiu commented.

"Didn't you see me side dishes? What can you do? I'm afraid it's a joke if I do it, otherwise I'm still unmarried at such an old age. Xiao Er is only seventeen years old, in ancient times, even if a woman didn't get married before the age of twenty, she would still be married, unless it was a palace maid in the palace who was twenty-five years old, she would be accused of marriage, Lan Xiaoqiu tilted her nose angrily: "What's wrong with being twenty years old?" Be careful that you won't be able to marry until you're twenty. ”

Lan Xiaoqiu was glad that he only said twenty, these twenty years old are despised, if he is twenty-eight years old, it is really good to cut his hair directly. Lan Xiaoqiu also envied the women of ancient times, they didn't need to go on a blind date at all, and when they got old, they would naturally fall into the sky, and then marry and teach children, and they didn't have to work to support their families. In today's world, Lan Xiaoqiu is despised if she has no marriage match, especially Xiao Er always thinks that Lan Xiaoqiu is seducing Agui, so she has the heart to embarrass her.

Lan Xiaoqiu had to put down his work and go to the well in the distance to fetch water.

The hot summer made Lan Xiaoqiu upset, especially when the bucket was put down, but there was no way to get water, and the bucket floated at the mouth of the well.

"You don't seem to know how to fetch water." Fang Hao didn't know when he was sitting on the tree by the well, Lan Xiaoqiu stretched out his palm to block the scorching sun and looked up: "Why do you always like to run so high?" I've never fetched water before, and it's too hard to hit, so why don't you help me? ”

Fang Hao jumped off the tree, and Lan Xiaoqiu was surprised: "In the future, you still have to fight by yourself, I will teach you first." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu: "......"

Lan Xiaoqiu easily filled the water according to Fang Hao's command, but he was so thirsty, Fang Hao smiled: "The water is next to you, why don't you drink it?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu frowned and said, "These waters are not boiled, so they can't be drunk." ”

Fang Hao picked up a bucket of water from the well and took a sip: "It's cool." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu was thirsty now, so he also picked up the water and took a sip: "It's really sweet, I didn't expect the well water to be so delicious." ”

"And what water did you drink before?" Fang Hao was suspicious.

"I 。。。。。。 I'm going back. Lan Xiaoqiu didn't want to tell Fang Hao that he was drinking tap water with bleach powder added to the faucet.

Lan Xiaoqiu hung up the two wooden barrels, but didn't carry them, Fang Hao smiled shamefully: "You can't even pick up water, right?" How the hell did you survive for twenty years? ”

Lan Xiaoqiu glared at Fang Hao angrily, she pursed her mouth, exerted her strength to breastfeed, pouted her ass and struggled to lift it up, which was very similar to the posture of a weightlifter. As soon as he lifted the bucket, he took two steps, but he couldn't reach it quickly, and he was knocked down by a small stone. The clear well water flowed from Lan Xiaoqiu's bucket to the ground as if fleeing, escaping in streams of water.

Fang Hao smiled: "Lan Xiaoqiu, you did it on purpose, right?" ”

But Lan Xiaoqiu didn't think that he was actually in this step, and he was laughed at, and it was Fang Hao who laughed at him. The grievances in Lan Xiaoqiu's heart all gathered together, and she cried out loud, patting the mud and sand on the ground and splashing: "What kind of sin did I do to ask me to come to this kind of place." I still have to be a maid, I have to carry water, and I have to be laughed at by that person. ”

Fang Hao didn't expect Lan Xiaoqiu to cry, Fang Hao hurriedly went to help Lan Xiaoqiu: "Are you okay?" ”

"I want to go home, I don't want to stay here anymore." Lan Xiaoqiu has a talent for shrews, pouting and pouting when she sits on the ground.

Fang Hao was in a hurry, scratching his eyes and said, "Then where is your hometown?" I'll find a way to get you back. ”

Lan Xiaoqiu sobbed, looked at Fang Hao, and asked, "You really don't know me?" Have you really lived here for thirty years? Is your brother Fang Xu too? ”

Although Fang Hao didn't know why Lan Xiaoqiu always asked him if he was from here, he still nodded and said, "I naturally won't lie to you, I have lived here for twenty-one years, and I have been living in the capital since I was a child, not to mention Fang Xu, we grew up together." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu stopped crying: "What? You're only twenty-one? ”

Fang Hao held his chin and asked, "Isn't it like that?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu muttered in his heart: Fang Hao in the Golden Hotel is also almost thirty years old, and now this Fang Hao is only twenty-one years old, and his age is not right, so isn't he seven years older than him? The more Lan Xiaoqiu thought about it, the more he felt that he had suffered a loss, and he forcibly let this kid take advantage of him.

As soon as I wanted to get up, I sat down again, and there was a sharp pain in my ankle: "Ah, it hurts." ”

Fang Hao checked Lan Xiaoqiu's ankle left and right: "It seems to be broken." ”

"What, broken?" Lan Xiaoqiu hadn't broken himself since he was a child, and not long after he came, he was broken by a small pebble. Speaking of which, this broken ankle really hurts heartbreakingly, and the liver and intestines are broken, especially when he is looked down on by this guy Fang Hao......
