Zhao Sichen heard that the guest who came was Wei Qianlang, and he had already entered the hall again.

She couldn't, so she had to let Chunhua serve tea, pull a simple bun by herself, change into clothes to meet customers, and walk to the clerk.

When Zhao Sichen walked to the front hall, Wei Qianlang was sitting in the hall drinking tea.

He had come to Zhao's house many times, and he was not informal, drinking tea while looking through the homework written by Zhao Yufeng on the table next to him.

Hearing footsteps, Wei Qianlang stood up and saw Zhao Sichen.

Wei Qianlang raised his eyes, and before he could react, he stayed for a moment.

Zhao Sichen's hair was half dry, his cheeks were slightly red, and with a moist dampness, he walked towards him in the summer sunset.

The summer sunset formed a red and yellow light on Zhao Sichen's body, and Zhao Sichen looked like a fairy.

Zhao Sichen saw Wei Qianlang, smiled slightly, and asked, "Are you still coming here so late today?" ”

Wei Qianlang was a little at a loss, and stumbled to explain: "He thought it was time for dinner, and he wanted to come over for dinner......

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Qianlang almost bit his tongue.

How did he say what was in his heart, and he didn't hide it at all.

Wei Qianlang hurriedly took back his words: "I didn't expect you to be ready to rest, but I disturbed you." I'll leave ...... now."

Zhao Sichen said with a smile, "I'm just a little tired today, and I've been busy outside all day, and my body is very dirty, so I cleaned ...... in advance."

Wei Qianlang wanted to raise his feet, but when he saw Zhao Sichen standing at the door, his face was hot, and it was difficult to move forward.

Zhao Sichen asked, "You haven't eaten yet?" ”

Wei Qianlang hurriedly said: "Don't worry about me, I'll just go out and eat some at will, or go back to the house, the kitchen has been preparing meals......"

Zhao Sichen smiled: "You don't have to go-

How can a guest enter the house without even leaving a meal? ”

Without waiting for Wei Qianlang to answer, Zhao Sichen said again: "But the cook has gone home, Sister Yunbi is still leaving the dining house and has not returned, and the two maids of Chunhua and Qiuyue are a little younger and don't know how to cook." If you don't mind, I'll help you try the next bowl of noodles? ”

Wei Qianlang didn't expect Zhao Sichen to be willing to cook in person, so he hurriedly said, "Don't mind, don't mind." ”

The corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily.

But I felt bad, and said softly: "I don't want you to work too hard......"

Zhao Sichen was not polite, and said with a smile: "Then you can help me." ”

The spring flowers and autumn moon on the side were busy burning wood and heating stoves in the kitchen.

They also help out in the kitchen on weekdays, and they are clever in their hands.

Wei Qianlang lived for fourteen years and never entered the kitchen once.

He stood beside Zhao Sichen, and when he saw the room full of hot stoves and ingredients, he didn't even know where to stand.

Zhao Sichen called Wei Qianlang: "You go wash the vegetables, wash this handful of vegetables in this basin of clean water, and scoop them up for me." ”

Wei Qianlang rolled up his sleeves and awkwardly rubbed the greens in the clear water.

Zhao Sichen also rolled up his sleeves, acting like a cloud of water, neatly cutting ham, eggs, underneath, vegetables, sprinkled green onions, and then dripping a few drops of sesame oil.

In just a quarter of an hour, a fragrant bowl of noodles was cooked.

Qingzhu brought a bench, and Zhao Sichen and Wei Qianlang sat side by side under the eaves at the kitchen door, facing the sunset.

Wei Qianlang held a large bowl of noodles in his hand and ate the noodles with a snort.

Zhao Sichen held a cup of tea in his hand and looked at the sunset in the distance with a smile.

Wei Qianlang finished eating the noodles and handed the bowl to Qingzhu, only to remember that he was indecent.

He explained to Zhao Sichen with some embarrassment: "I have been on errands in the suburbs of Beijing for the past five days, and I have eaten dry food for a few days along the way. ”

Zhao Sichen said with a smile: "You eat well, it is an affirmation of my cooking skills, I should thank you." ”

He asked again: "You are a third prince, why can't you even eat a hot soup?" ”

Wei Qianlang said: "I also want to eat something delicious, but the dishes outside are not as fragrant as your food-

After finishing my errand today, I couldn't help but come over. ”

Zhao Sichen smiled: "You are welcome to come over at any time." It's just that next time, if you have time, you will send Tian Hongda over first to say, I will leave him food, so as not to come to my house, or have to face the cold stove. ”

Wei Qianlang's heart warmed.

This is the first time that someone has said that they want to leave him food.

It's as if I've been caring about him all the time.

Wei Qianlang asked Zhao Sichen what he was busy with these days: "I see that you look a little tired, is it because you are tired?" ”

Zhao Sichen said with a smile: "The two shops on West Street are about to open, and there are a lot of things. ”

"Repaired?"

"Yes, everything has already been placed."

"There's a lot left unattended?"

For business matters, it has always been Steward Xing's stewardship, and Wei Qianlang rarely asks.

Zhao Sichen said: "The more troublesome thing is to recruit people-

Fortunately, there is a steward in your house, although he is not very good, he is very capable of doing things, and he has helped a lot. ”

Zhao Sichen talked about Xuan Fugui helping her recruit jobs: "He has a wide range of ways and accurate vision, and the people he finds are very suitable for the shop." ”

Wei Qianlang asked the name, thought for a while, and didn't remember that there was such a person in the Three Princes' Mansion.

The business of the Three Princes' Mansion is managed by Steward Xing, and there are more than ten stewards in charge of various affairs, and it is common for Wei Qianlang not to remember.

However, the steward of his house helped Zhao Sichen, and Wei Qianlang was happy in his heart: "If there is anything to call him, if there is a shortage of people, he will go to my house to ask for it." I told Steward Xing that you will give whatever you want. ”

Zhao Sichen said with a smile: "Steward Xuan is also worried that the Third Prince's Mansion will misunderstand him inside and out. With your words, then I'll borrow it first. ”

Zhao Sichen talked about the mandarin duck again: "The mandarin duck looks good, has a pungent personality, and is bold, I thought she was a good person to cultivate, but I didn't expect her to look smart, but she is actually a stupid person."

How many heels have been planted in a man's body, and he does not know how to repent.

Single-mindedly relying on men, he never thought of relying on himself to be self-reliant. ”

Zhao Sichen sighed a few times.

Wei Qianlang smiled slightly, silently looked at Zhao Sichen and sighed.

There are many women in this world who want to be silk flowers.

Like Zhao Sichen, it is rare to want to rely on his own ability to make a career.

The two of them chatted idly, and Zhao Sichen suddenly remembered something: "There are still three months until the mid-year festival in July, and I want to do a ritual on the mid-year festival." ”

Wei Qianlang said curiously: "Who do you want to do?" ”

Zhao Sichen did not directly answer Wei Qianlang's question, and refused to elaborate, only saying that the scale was not small.

He also said: "Last time, the son of the Le Lin Houfu family, Le Yujing, wanted to marry me as a concubine, but it was the senior monk of the Great Compassion Temple who said that he had a deep Buddhist relationship, and let him go to the Great Compassion Temple to become a monk, so that this problem was solved......

I expect you and the Lord of the Great Mercy Temple to hold the old.

I guess you know some temples, can you introduce me to a good temple? ”

Wei Qianlang said with a smile: "A better temple?

The Great Compassion Temple is a royal temple, and it is naturally the best in Daqing City.

I have some friendship with the presiding officer of the Great Compassion Temple, but the Great Compassion Temple is just a matter of affairs, and I am afraid that the cost is not low. ”

Zhao Sichen said with a smile: "Money, don't worry, I'm afraid that on the day of the Midyear Festival, the Great Compassion Temple will be too busy and the host will not be too busy." ”

Wei Qianlang responded: "I'll go and talk to him for you." ”

Zhao Sichen smiled: "I'll figure out a way to make money." ”

Wei Qianlang turned his face sideways and looked at Zhao Sichen.

She looked at the sunset in the distance, and there was a bright light in her eyes.

Wei Qianlang couldn't understand Zhao Sichen.

Zhao Sichen's ideas of making money one after another, coming in the wind and going in the rain, going out early every day, and going home with exhaustion until the evening.

But she earned money, but never spent it on herself.

Life is still simple, the house is not big, and the carriage is not bought.

After opening the restaurant, the new dishes are flying like flowers and butterflies.

However, the food is simple, and when a person eats, a bowl of noodle soup is a legacy.

On weekdays, she wears no makeup, and she doesn't wear gold or silver, and there are only one or two sets of clothes that come and go, and I don't see how many bright clothes she wears.

Thinking of this, Wei Qianlang couldn't help blushing a little, how could he even pay attention to Zhao Sichen's clothes.

Zhao Sichen didn't notice Wei Qianlang's thoughts.

She watched the sunset in the distance—

Watching the stars rise in the sky -

Looking at the lanterns lit up one after another in Daqing City-

Zhao Sichen suddenly came to his senses.

She stood up abruptly and said, "Let's go, let's go see the stars." ”

Before Wei Qianlang could react, Zhao Sichen had already jumped up, his body was as light as a swallow, like a flying bird, and flew directly onto the roof.

Who knows, Zhao Sichen hasn't stood firm yet, the person is still in mid-air, his waist is twisted, he forcibly changes direction, and kicks it-

But in the blink of an eye, Zhao Sichen had already made two moves with the man in black on the roof.

It turned out that when Zhao Sichen and Wei Qianlang were chatting on the bench under the porch, there was a man in black lying silently on the roof.

The man in black had extremely high martial arts, and Zhao Sichen was unguarded, so he didn't even notice his existence.

Zhao Sichen jumped onto the roof without warning, just as he was about to land where the man in black was lying on his stomach.

The man in black was startled and instinctively shot at Zhao Sichen.

Zhao Sichen reacted extremely quickly, the person was still in mid-air, and his body had already reacted.

Wei Qianlang found that the two people on the roof had made a few moves, and immediately followed behind Zhao Sichen and jumped onto the roof.

Zhao Sichen said: "I'll deal with him, you go down!" ”

Wei Qianlang stretched out his hand, blocked in front of Zhao Sichen, and shouted: "Stop, don't hurt Miss Zhao!" ”

When the man in black heard Wei Qianlang's order, he immediately stopped, silently retreated to the side, and hid into the darkness under the eaves.

Zhao Sichen looked at Wei Qianlang with an expressionless face.

There is no early detection of the lurking -

This time was too busy, she neglected to practice, and her kung fu regressed!

Wei Qianlang sneered: "Secret guard, secret guard!" ”

Seeing that Zhao Sichen was silent, Wei Qianlang hurriedly explained: "They don't show up on weekdays. You jumped on the eaves so fast today that they couldn't react, so they suddenly struck-"

Zhao Sichen raised his eyebrows and asked a question-

"Have they eaten?"

Wei Qianlang hurriedly explained: "Eat, since the last time you said that I was not considerate of my subordinates, now I let them take shifts to eat." ”

Zhao Sichen nodded and praised: "It should indeed be like this, you can suffer anything, you can't suffer from hunger." ”

As he spoke, he sat cross-legged on the roof tiles.

Wei Qianlang followed and sat aside.

After a while, he felt a little farther away from Zhao Sichen.

He quietly moved in the direction of Zhao Sichen.

And he moved again—
