Chapter 144: Enrollment Turmoil
Lu Lu because of the temporary stomach pain, did not follow, Xiao Basan spent half an hour, hurried to the place where the shopkeeper said, only to see a small red tile room, the door of the kitchen god registration point, rice ball nervously walked over, knocked lightly on the door, after a long time, heard a lazy voice from inside: "Who." ”
Onigiri timidly pushed open the door and walked in with the others. The room is not big, only a dozen square meters in front and back, and there is a horizontal table in the middle, and behind the table, there is a bloated old man half-lying and half-sitting. The old man half-squinted his eyes and looked at the crowd: "What do you have to do?"
Onigiri swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said timidly: "Uncle, I'm here to sign up..."
"Who is the old man, I am just forty-five. The old man snorted dissatisfiedly. "Registration is over, let's go. ”
"Don't, uncle, I've come all the way, so you can be accommodating. Onigiri immediately panicked and pleaded with the chubby man.
The man waved his hand: "Don't even think about it, who do you think you are? Don't talk about thousands of miles, it's useless to come from thousands of miles. Don't try to plug with me, no way. ”
"Uncle, just be accommodating, please. As he spoke, the rice ball took out more than 20 taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the table. Although it is not much, this is all her savings, and Fangiri is not very interested in anything else except for her love of ingredients, so she has worked in "No Leftovers" for so long, and she has not saved any savings, and she will take as much as the boss gives. I'm afraid this is also one of the factors that the boss of "no leftovers" is all due to this aunt.
Glancing down at the more than twenty taels of silver, the man snorted disdainfully: "Take it back, and send it away to ask for food? Do you know what others call me? You want to buy me with money, go dream. Get out of here, or I'll have you arrested, and I'll accuse you of coming here to make trouble." This is the root of the imperial city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven. Once something happens, it's a felony, and you don't understand it. ”
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, how could this name not have anything to do with the selflessness of the iron mask, looking at the rice ball, his eyes were slightly red, and he was about to cry, Xia Yu walked out, threw a silver ticket of one thousand taels on the table, and said in a cold voice: "These are enough." ”
Xu Ruan Ruan saw the silver ticket and instinctively replied, "Enough... Enough..."But when he looked up and saw Xia Yu, his eyes immediately showed a greedy look, and he coughed and said: "For the sake of you all the way here, let me think about it, no matter how you say the law, it is nothing more than human feelings." Hey, it's not easy for you. Then he took out a form from under the table, handed it to the rice ball, and said, "You are here to participate in the competition? ”
Onigiri laughed excitedly, nodded happily, and quickly filled out the form. At this time, Xu Ruanruan turned his gaze to Xia Yu again, licked his dry lips and said, "I don't know this girl's name, you are from out of town, let's have a meal together in the evening, my brother knows a very good restaurant." By the way, I would like to introduce you to our famous scenery here, and then we can discuss the problem of this little girl's grouping. ”
Xu Ruanruan's words made it clear that he was still in charge of the group, as long as Xia Yu accompanied him to eat, then the opponents that Fantuan met in the qualifiers would be relatively much weaker, which could undoubtedly facilitate the appearance of Fantuan. Xu Ruan Ruan has used this method to win many improper transactions for himself, but at this time he is facing Xia Yu. Although Xia Yu was a little shy about Xiaoba after coming out of the training base, he was also good for rice balls. But others are still the same kind of cold look. So she didn't care what Xu Ruan Ruan said, and replied coldly: "No kung fu." ”
Hearing Xia Yu's answer, Xu Ruan Ruan was stunned at first, and was about to get angry. But when he saw Xia Yu's arrogant and beautiful face, thinking about what it would look like when he conquered such a woman, the copy burned into a fire. Xu Ruan Ruan is just a small steward in the imperial dining room, where has he ever come into contact with a beauty of this level. Even if I saw it from afar, those were all women of the princes and ministers, and I didn't dare to think about it. So at this time, he didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he held back his anger and said: "I advise you to think about it again, otherwise it will not be easy for this girl to participate in the competition." ”
Where would Xia Yu be threatened by Xu Ruanruan, hearing Xu Ruan Ruan say this, he replied coldly: "No time" and turned around and walked out of the room, not giving Xu Ruan Ruan a chance to speak again, otherwise Xia Yuwei was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he would become an ice sculpture.
This move made Xu Ruan Ruan suddenly feel that he had lost face, and in a fit of rage, he pressed on the form that the rice ball was filling out, grabbed the form and crumpled it into a ball of waste paper in his hand, and shouted: "Don't write it, give it a shameless thing, you dare to come to the registration place to make trouble, wait, I'll call someone now." ”
Seeing that the form was suddenly snatched away, Fantuan was so anxious that he almost cried, so he could only look at Xiaoba for help. She also understands that Xu Ruanruan wants to take advantage of Xia Yu, and she doesn't want Xia Yu to sacrifice too much for herself, but participating in the competition is really important to her. It's just that except for those who have special habits, no one will have an idea about a little girl who looks only twelve or thirteen years old.
Xiao Ba was also a little angry about Xu Ruanruan's approach, but he was not only concerned about whether the rice ball could participate, but it was impossible to persuade Xia Yu to fall into the tiger's mouth, so he was very embarrassed. Seeing that Xia Yu was gone, Xu Ruan Ruan was furious, Xiao Ba could only walk up hard, took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels from his arms and stuffed it into Xu Ruanruan's hand, patted him on the back, and flattered: "Big brother, big brother, dissipate your anger." Don't be angry with a little girl, she is not sensible, you ignore her. ”
Xu Ruanruan glanced at the silver ticket in his hand and snorted: "Seeing that you kid is so good at talking, forget it, you can go." ”
Xiaoba frowned, this person is really insatiable, he collected two thousand taels of silver tickets from the two of them, and he coaxed people away without doing anything, which is too much to say. However, he didn't dare to show it, so he had to endure and continue: "Big brother, it's really not easy for us to come all the way, so you can make it convenient." ”
"Hmph, don't even think about it, you're pestering, I'll report to the official immediately!" Xu Ruan Ruan turned his face sideways, and he had the posture of continuing to pester. At this time, Xiaoba was also worried, thinking about how to make the rice ball register. At this time, the rice ball slapped the table, only to see that the horizontal table immediately turned in half and fell down, and at the same time, he stepped forward and smashed on Xu Ruanruan's stomach with a punch. As a cook, Xu Ruan Ruan, how could he stand the punch of the rice ball, and suddenly all the snot and tears flew out, and the whole person was lying on the ground holding his stomach and wailing. Fantuan stepped forward and kicked Xu Ruan Ruan, reached out and grabbed the silver ticket in his hand and said, "I won't report it, mother, it's a big deal to wait for next time." As he spoke, he picked up Hachi and walked out.
Xu Ruan Ruan covered his stomach and rolled on the ground for a long time before he regained his strength, and let out an angry roar, "Someone, someone is coming to make trouble!" It's just that when he finished shouting, Xiao Hachi and the others had already returned to the inn.
Onigiri looked a little lost, and returned to his room without speaking, although Hachi and the others did not go in, they could also vaguely hear the sound of sobbing coming from inside. The two glanced at each other, and Xia Yu was a little embarrassed and said, "It's all up to me... But..."
Xiaoba waved his hand at Xia Yu and said, "It's not bad for you, even if you agree, Fantuan and I won't agree." Hearing what Xiaoba said, Xia Yu's heart warmed, but when she heard the crying of rice balls in the house, Xia Yu still blamed herself a little.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Ba's heart moved, and asked Xia Yu to wait here, he would come as soon as he went, and Xia Yu didn't stop him, so he waited at the door of the rice ball. Not long after, Xiaoba came back, smiled at Xia Yu, reached out and gently patted the door of the rice ball, and the muffled voice of the rice ball came from the house: "Who... Who..."
Xiaobadao: "It's me." ”
"Oh... Come in..."
Xiao Ba glanced at Xia Yu, then pushed the door and walked in, Xia Yu looked at Xiao Ba's appearance, and followed in with confusion. I saw the rice ball in the room covering the quilt, sitting on the bed, and there were obvious tear stains on the pillow. It was only because Hachi and the others came in that they couldn't hold back their tears.
Seeing the appearance of the rice ball, Xiaoba walked over, squatted in front of her, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged, who said that if you don't register, you can't compete!"
Fangiri was stunned, and looked at Hachi with big pink eyes with tears in his eyes: "Can I still participate in the competition?"
Hachi smiled: "As long as you want, you can!"
Xia Yu was also puzzled and pulled Xiaoba, and said in a low voice: "You have found a way to sign up." ”
Hachi smiled slightly: "Don't worry." ”
At this time, Lulu came back from outside the door with a toothpick in his hand, apparently just stealing it. Seeing that the three of them were in the rice ball house, he walked in and asked loudly, "Yo, have you registered?"
As soon as he heard Lu Lu say it, the face of the rice ball became ugly again, and he was about to cry again, Xiaoba raised a kick and kicked Lu Lu out of the house, and at the same time turned back to Xia Yu and told her to accompany the rice ball and prepare something by herself, so he pulled Lu Lu out.
