The Imperial Concubine Chef - C96
As the two chatted, Shangguan Lin brought the topic up to that book. Xinyu, where did you get this equipment? ”
Su Xinyu replied with an “Oh”. My Seventh Grandpa used to have a lot of books. I was looking at these strange things before, so I had an impression of them. But I had to leave moderately, so I had hidden a lot of things on the mountain before. After leaving that day, I went to take away the silver, some scrolls and some of my mother’s embroidery. This book is in it. Actually, it was only after the rebellion at the Wenjiang River that I felt it might be useful. It was meant for you, too. But it was a special situation, and all I wanted to do was get out of here. So there was no time. It was only because of the things you wrote about the battlefield that I remembered this. Didn’t I let the Manager Zhang bring it to you? If I had known you were here, I would have given it to you myself. Did you read the letter as well? There’s a recipe for some expensive ingredients. It’s good if you give it to Yun Lai Fang, but it’s also good if you use it for him. It should be extremely profitable. I don’t have the ability to do such a big business anyway, and I prefer to interact with ordinary people. I won’t be able to use these recipes after I’ve copied them down. ”
Hearing Su Xinyu’s explanation, the stack of letters that she had given herself still had menu. “Shangguan Lin felt so good in his heart. To tell the truth, I haven’t read the letter. He was curious as to where this weapon manual came from. Furthermore, I checked the contents of this weapon manual and found that they are indeed feasible. That’s why I can’t wait to see you. ”
“Su Xinyu’s expression immediately changed. Oh. So it was because of the book. I thought you wanted to catch up with me after not seeing you for so long. ”
Seeing the disappointment and disappointment on Su Xinyu’s face, Shangguan Lin started to understand and become nervous. God knows, he had never tried to be so flustered in front of anyone in his entire life. He could even remain calm when facing his stepmother who wanted his life so badly. “But I can’t do that now.” Heart, Xinyu. That’s not what I meant. I do miss you. But… Well, I can’t talk. I didn’t want to see you because of this book. I already knew that you would start resting today, so I planned to go over to see you. “Believe me, I really didn’t lie to you.”
Seeing Shangguan Lin being so anxious, he completely changed his calm demeanor from when he should have matured at such a young age, revealing the appearance of a young man. Su Xinyu suddenly laughed. I’m teasing you. Who asked you to come and not see me for so long? ”
Su Xinyu’s smile completely stunned Shangguan Lin. It was not that he didn’t realize that Su Xinyu was lying. On the contrary, it was because he knew about this that an indescribable feeling of pleasure arose in his heart. “Thus, a smile appeared on his face uncontrollably.” “Actually, I know it too.”
“What do you know?” I was a little angry. But I think, although we are friends, but everyone has their own busy things to do. Even family could not always put each other at the forefront. So there was nothing to be angry about. Besides, you’ve helped me so much. For me to be able to be able to stand at the Haian City today, I have to rely on you to do it. ”
Shangguan Lin immediately waved his hand: “The reason you are able to stay here is because you have the ability to. I’m just asking Zhang Ziyi to take care of me for a bit. And I know you didn’t ask him to help you much at all. You bought the house yourself. The business is also done by yourselves, and the relationship between your neighbors is also done by yourselves. What are you thanking me for? By the way, I heard you bought two servants? There’s another man? ”
Su Xinyu shook her head. Hu Zi is the same as me, she’s also disguised as a man. But she was born tall and strong, and she was more like me than I was. That girl is a hard worker. Sold by relatives. It was a coincidence that I saved her. It was all thanks to her. Don’t tell me she’s a little girl. She’s got a lot of strength and she’s very aggressive. We’ve been through a lot of things along the way. She was the one who put out her hand to send those people running.
Shangguan Lin had a sudden inspiration: “How about I find someone to teach her martial arts?”
“Huh?” After Su Xinyu came back to her senses, she asked, “Don’t tell me Manager Zhang knows martial arts too.”
Shangguan Lin laughed: “He only knows a little. Teaching people was not enough. If you agree, I can find him a lady. However, if you want her to work a bit harder, she can only go and study at night. ”
Su Xinyu did not understand. “Why at night?”
“The person I want to introduce is the Yi Niang of the Cloud Lai Workshop. She wants to socialize with me in the Cloud Lai Workshop during the day.” But she wasn’t there at night. I can ask him to spare two hours a day to teach that little girl martial arts. “Of course, that’s only if Yi Niang thinks that the little girl has talent.”
Su Xinyu knew that this was a good thing, but she could not help Hu Ya. “Then I have to go back and ask her.”
After chatting with Shangguan Lin for a while longer, Su Xinyu said that she wanted to go home and tell her mother that he had come. Shangguan Lin decided to follow Su Xinyu back.
Walking into Su Family’s courtyard, he saw that Hu Zi was sunbathing with him. The two of them did not know Shangguan Lin, so they did not understand why their young master would bring such a handsome young master. Hu Zi hurried over. Young Master, this is? ”
Shangguan Lin did not wait for Su Xinyu to speak, and quickly introduced himself. ” I am Xinyu’s cousin. ”
Su Xinyu’s mouth twitched. However, this form of address was still acceptable. In any case, he could not discredit her, so he could only nod her head, “Okay. You can just call me cousin young master. Is my mother home? ”
Just then, Su Wenlan came out from the house. But when she saw Wen Ling, she was stunned. After all, they had not seen each other for more than half a year, but Wen Ling had grown stronger once he became taller. Even though his appearance had not changed much, Su Wenlan had only seen him twice, so it was natural for him to be a little dazed.
Afraid that Su Wenlan would say the wrong thing, Su Xinyu hurriedly stepped forward, “Mother. Cousin came to see us. You’re happy, aren’t you? He’s just passing by. ”
Wen Ling hurried forward to bow. “Aunt, nephew greets you.”
Damn! “With such a big nephew by his side, I can’t help but admit it.” Sigh! Good boy, sit in the room. Go make some tea. He wants your young master to like that one the most. Hu Zi will go buy some good wine and dishes. ”
Su Xinyu hurriedly stopped her. Mother. If tea is okay, then forget about the wine and food. My cousin will be busy in a moment, and I will follow him. We made an appointment for several people to eat at the restaurant. But we’ll be back in the evening. Big Brother Yong is also here, he will be back for dinner with us tonight. ”
Hearing that Tian Liyong had also arrived. Su Wenlan was extremely happy. After all, Wen Ling was an outsider to him. But to her, Tian Liyong was his own nephew. Courage also came? Great! If you want to buy something, then go buy something. I have to make a table of good food tonight. ”
They did not talk much with Su Wenlan since there was really nothing to communicate with him. In about the time it took to make a cup of tea, Su Xinyu had already brought the person away.
When Su Family was mentioned about the good wine and good dishes, Su Xinyu and Shangguan Lin came back. The two of them returned to the small house that Shangguan Lin lived in. At this time, the food and wine had already been delivered and Xiao Tong had even heated up the wine. Fifth Master, Young Master Su. I have prepared some water for you two. “You can even set up dishes and wine.”
Shangguan Lin waved his hand, “You may leave first. We can do it ourselves. Right, go to Su Family and help them prepare dinner. ”
Su Xinyu stopped him: “Let’s compete. Let my mother busy herself. She’s happy to see someone she knows. ”
Shangguan Lin smiled and nodded, “Alright. “Then I’ll listen to you.”
Seeing his master like this, Xiao Tong secretly laughed. However, they hadn’t seen each other for so long. Although Miss Su was dressed as a man, she was taller and more handsome. Although his background wasn’t too good, as long as his master liked him, there was nothing he couldn’t do.
Shangguan Lin and Su Xinyu chatted as they ate. Not only had they seen each other over the past few months, but they also knew about the situation in front of the two armies.
Originally, this topic was not suitable to be brought up to women. For the average man, women don’t understand what they’re talking about. However, Shangguan Lin believed that not only could Su Xinyu understand it, he could also come up with a completely new idea from different angles. Now that we’ve cut off the rebel army’s food supply, it shouldn’t be long before the war starts again. If they continued to fight, there would inevitably be a winner and a loser. Don’t look at how it still hasn’t affected Hai An’s side. But then there would be a lot of trouble. For example, the rising prices, or the lack of food. And the court may even recruit troops. However, your family doesn’t have an adult male disciple right now, so you don’t have to worry about that. And I’ll fix you up before I leave. You don’t have to worry. “The military camps outside the city are full of our men. If something happens that even the government can’t solve, you can bring my peach talisman to them for help.”
Su Xinyu frowned. I will secretly buy more grain and rice. The stall could also be left unmoved for now. In the end, the war was still a disaster for the people. The first to die were the soldiers. Ling Ge, how long do you think it will take before the battle begins? ”
Shangguan Lin replied, “It’s going to be fifteen years from now no matter what.”
Su Xinyu sighed: “This year, it’s indeed worth watching.” As she said this, a sudden inspiration struck her. Ling Ge, the rebel army on the east side of the river has already sealed their food passage. The rebel soldiers were naturally panicking. And most of them are civilians. Who wouldn’t want to live a good life? So why don’t you try the method ‘Shaking the hearts of the troops’? ”
Shangguan Lin put down his wine cup: “How do I sway?”
“I don’t think so either. After all, I don’t understand either. But as a commoner. If I can’t eat well and sleep well, I have to worry about not knowing when I’ll die. And you can’t keep warm in the cold. Then I must be very sad. If someone can let me eat until I’m full and protect me from death, then my heart will definitely turn to someone else. ”
Shangguan Lin’s eyes lit up. Although Su Xinyu said it in a general manner, this was also the most crucial point. They could discuss the concrete plan in detail, but with this general direction, it could indeed be of great use. Even if they couldn’t change all of the rebel soldiers, a small portion of them would still be of great help in quickly ending this war that had lasted for so long.
“Excited, Shangguan Lin didn’t think too much and directly held onto Su Xinyu’s hand. Xinyu. Your idea is excellent. “Thank you!”
Su Xinyu was startled, then after that she looked at the group that was being held by Shangguan Lin’s hands, and her face started to turn red. Not really worth thanking. It won’t be too late if it’s really useful. ”
It was rude to realize what he had done. Shangguan Lin hurriedly retracted his hand. That… Sorry. I was excited. ”
“Su Xinyu was originally a modern person’s soul, so she wouldn’t think that it would be harmful to her reputation just because she was pulled by a man.” I didn’t see anything. What are you apologizing for? This vinegar fish is not bad, it tastes very good. ”
Su Xinyu squinted her eyes, looking like she was enjoying the taste. Shangguan Lin subconsciously swallowed his saliva. Then he pinched his thigh under the table. Furthermore, he was cursing in his heart that he wasn’t a good person. Even if Xinyu’s performance was any more mature or if she wasn’t a child, she would still be only ten years old! Why did she keep neglecting this girl’s age? Wait another four or five years… It didn’t seem too long. At that time, when the Fourth Brother holds the position of emperor, I can probably retire with success, right?
