Chapter 708
"What's the matter!" Early in the morning, the sky began to be busy, the water and rice did not enter, Erfu, as a qualified foodie, finally calmed down, but she was about to eat when she was interrupted, she was in a really bad mood, and even with a bad tone, she yelled at the door and walked to the door, just with Zhang Bao who was following Lin Yu's family.

Erfu sorted out his expression as quickly as possible, tried his best to make his expression look less hideous, nodded to Zhang Bao who was saluting Qian'er, and motioned for him to get up and enter the room to talk, then turned his head to look at Lin Yu's and asked the details with his eyes.
Lin Yushi secretly moved his fingers, pulled the cuffs of his sleeves, and stepped aside.
This is Bai Jiao's small action of saying secret words in the store, which means that in addition to Zhang Bao, there is a group of people outside.
"I don't know if Zhang Bao's father-in-law chased him to Zhuangzi early in the morning, but he wants to catch me back to the Zhuangzi where the bird doesn't, if that's the case, I'm afraid you will have to run empty, after all, I came to my own marriage Zhuangzi to avoid illness, that's what your master agrees to." "To tell the truth, Erfu doesn't have a bad impression of Zhang Bao's father-in-law, but he just ate the melon of the fourth master, even if he entered the door, Erfu didn't let him ask Zhang Bao's intention with a black face without letting him have a cup of tea.
Zhang Bao was really a little unsure of the attitude of this side Fujin, but he didn't dare to carry this pot, and hurriedly said the message that the fourth master arranged for him and Batur to come over to serve Erfu, in fact, he and Lin Yushi also said it again, originally Lin Yushi could tell Erfu, but Erfu was so hungry at this time that he was not in a good mood, and he came out as soon as he pushed the door, and Lin Yushi couldn't answer like this in front of Zhang Bao, so he had to let Zhang Bao repeat it.
The fourth master of daring to love was in a hurry to enter the palace to go to the court, and separated from Erfu from outside Zhuangzi, but he did not forget to arrange for Ha Wu to go back to the house before entering the palace, and assigned Zhang Bao and Batur and his group to be responsible for Erfu's safety.
However, it is also a loss that the fourth master will go to sit in the hall after he disperses, otherwise the fourth master can eat Zhang Bao.
"Peaches. Erfu patiently listened to Zhang Bao's intentions, called Lin Yu's maiden name when he was a buddy in the shop, and commanded softly, "It's hard for the fourth master to arrange it so thoughtfully, you just let people hurry up and clean up the front yard, and welcome all the people who are left outside the Zhuangzi by the family members who patrol the Zhuangzi to come in." As she spoke, she smiled and nodded to Zhang Bao, and said 'less accompaniment' and asked Lin Yu to take Zhang Bao out.
She really doesn't have the energy to talk to Zhang Bao about those bad things in the house, she is about to collapse from hunger at this moment, she doesn't eat anything again, she is really afraid that she will become the first crossing girl to be starved to death.
As soon as Lin Yushi and Zhang Bao went out, she hurriedly called the little girl under the porch, and instructed her to bring in the food prepared in the small kitchen, and before a few dishes were put on the table, she was busy pinching a piece of dim sum and eating.
If Yaoqin is good, she must have prepared snacks for her stomach early, and she will never be so embarrassed to eat, Erfu is eating a small snack from the kitchen, and thinks about Yaoqin while looking at the direction of the wing.
Thinking of Yaoqin, she was slightly stunned, and then stopped the little girl who was about to go out with the food box, reluctantly swallowed the half-chewed custard bun in her mouth, and ordered: "You go to the side room to have a look, if there is no food over there, hurry up and go to the small kitchen to call for some food to send to them, don't starve them." ”
With these things arranged, Erf was completely relaxed, and sat down peacefully at the round table, continuing to eat the not too tasty, but hot, meal.
Over the years, it has always been Xiaoshengzi who takes care of the small kitchen in the West Courtyard, that is, when she was out of the house, or when Erfu was sent to Shengjing, she was also served by Xiaoshengzi, and suddenly ate a meal that was not Xiaoshengzi's master, she was really a little uncomfortable, just when Erfu was thinking like this, the hidden door was knocked again.
"Miss, someone is asking to see you. Lin Yushi, who went and returned, said with a smile.
Erfu hurriedly drank a few mouthfuls of porridge in the bowl, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, raised his head, and asked impatiently: "Who is so ignorant, why I want to eat without a quiet meal." ”
But before she could finish her sentence and see the person clearly, she smiled.
The person who came was the little son that Erfu had thought of, the big boss of the small kitchen in the west courtyard.
As a qualified foodie, the chef in charge who can cook a delicious meal for herself, for Erfu, Xiaoshengzi is her closest friend, but she also knows Xiaoshengzi's temperament, she has always paid attention to rules and etiquette, and did not interrupt Xiaoshengzi's action of playing a thousand courtesies, until Xiaoshengzi stood up again, she pointed to the embroidered pier under her head, motioned for him to sit down and talk, "Why are you here too!"
As soon as Xiaoshengzi said it, Erfu knew.
Dare to love is Zhang Bao, a shrewd guy, got the orders of the fourth master, in line with the principle of doing things perfectly, and heard the news from Ha Wuzui, knowing that Erfu is not in a good mood at the moment, so he found Su Peisheng, who is the most frequent in and out of the inner courtyard and the best at serving people, to ask for advice, and I don't know what the two said, anyway, Zhang Bao has already loaded the luggage packed from the West Courtyard and is about to leave, so he took the decision to pull the little shengzi who was counting the ingredients in the small kitchen in the West Courtyard into the carriage of Zhuangzi.
"That's all he told you?" Elf asked with a smile.
Xiao Shengzi nodded respectfully, and continued: "The two carriages with luggage in the back can't sit down, and he was afraid that the re-entrapment would collide with the fourth master who returned to the house of the scattered dynasty, so he called the slave into his carriage, and these words were all said by him and the slave on the road." ”
"Su Peisheng is really smart, it is estimated that Su Peisheng gave him the idea, otherwise he would never have thought of the idea of letting you come to Zhuangzi on an errand.
It's good that you're here, you've been working in my small kitchen, and you're most familiar with my tastes, so don't be idle here, hurry up and follow Peaches to the small kitchen to prepare a few delicious dishes for me, and also make some delicious ones for Yaoqin, that girl is not in a good mood, I guess the food you cook can be more suitable for her taste. As she spoke, she pointed at Lin Yu's, smiled and urged Xiao Shengzi to go to the small kitchen to work, and at the same time extravagantly pushed aside a few small dishes on the table, and waited for the home-cooked food prepared by Xiao Shengzi with a smile.
Xiaoshengzi didn't shirk either, nodded and followed Lin Yu's out.
With a bowl of eight-treasure porridge at the bottom of the previous meal, and two sweet and milky small buns, Erfu is not very hungry, and Xiaoshengzi is also neat hands and feet, slightly familiar with the pot stove in the small kitchen, less than half an hour with the cooperation of the kitchen, made four dishes with full color and flavor, Sichuan spicy taste of home-cooking, and also prepared egg custard, fish-flavored shredded pork, preserved egg porridge and other food for Yaoqin.
"Sure enough, it's Xiaoshengzi's craftsmanship, and the taste is authentic. Erfu ate the spicy boiled pork slices, shook her head and muttered vaguely at Bai Jiao, who had returned to Zhuangzi.
"You've got a heart-eating eye!" Bai Jiao pouted speechlessly, took a bite of the sweet and sour apple, chewed it squeakily, and complained.
"Eating makes me feel happy. Erfu showed a rare hint of amazement, sighed, and at the same time ate more spicy and tender boiled pork slices, and in less than three minutes, a bowl of Manden Deng rice was wiped out, and then he regained his energy and asked about Bai Jiao's harvest.
Bai Jiao ate all the apples in her hand, clapped her hands, took the handkerchief at hand and wiped her mouth, shook her head, spread her hands helplessly, and replied: "To tell the truth, I really don't understand the woman of your Eniang, I am the big proprietor in your shop, this is not a well-known thing in Beijing, but in the circle of the powerful, where will anyone not know, let alone your Eniang, right!"
She actually excused herself from letting the housekeeper let me in under the pretext that she didn't know me.
Tell me, what does she mean by this, even if she doesn't know where she got the news that you are infected with a bad disease, but it's always your own mother, why isn't she in a hurry and doesn't worry about you!"
Erfu had long anticipated this possibility, so before Bai Jiao left, she specially wrote a handwritten letter to Bai Jiao, and asked Bai Jiao to transfer the letter to Lily through the person who had already arranged to enter the mansion on an errand when she couldn't enter the mansion, so even if Bai Jiao said this, she didn't feel disappointed, she just pursed her lips speechlessly and diverted the topic, talking about the matter of the fourth master arranging for Zhang Bao to come over, "With them living in the front yard, I want to secretly practice guns, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do." ”
"Hey, hey!" Bai Jiao didn't have to inquire about the private affairs of Erfu's mother's house, so Erfu didn't want to say it, so she smiled and shrugged her shoulders and followed Erfu's words, talking about the preparations she had made a long time ago, but in order to show her unhappiness, she still laughed twice, and stimulated Erfu fiercely, and then pulled Erfu, who didn't want to move when she was full, to the warm pavilion between the west pins, and raised her leg to kick the rosewood feet in front of the kang to the side, and at the same time reached out on the glazed floor cover in front of the warm pavilion, and pressed the stamen of the only moon flower carved in front of the big kang, jian/ Studying what Erf said before, he pointed to the original position of the foot and said loudly, "The next moment is when you are about to witness the miracle." ”
With a creaking and grinding sound, the floor tiles that had been stepped on quickly descended, revealing a hole hidden in the dimness, and on one side of the hole was a rammed earth step that slowly descended.
"What is this?" asked Elph in a low voice, her eyes widening in surprise.
Bai Jiao smiled and took out the fire fold from the sleeve tube, casually took out two baby-sized wrist-thick candles from the gilt candlesticks on the side of the floor cover, lit them, handed them to Erfu to hold, and from a dark compartment on the side of the kang, he took out two hand-held candlesticks inlaid with copper mirrors, shook them with a smile, handed one of the hand-held candlesticks to Erfu, took a candle in Erfu's hand, and took the lead in stepping on the tamping steps under the hole and disappeared in front of Erfu's eyes.
"Come down!" Bai Jiao stood at the foot of a few steps, and the whole person revealed a ghostly little face reflected by the candlelight, accompanied by a hollow echo, beckoning Erf, who was still in a daze.
Or claustrophobia, or fear of the horrors that might come out of a dark corner...... Erfu hesitated for a while, and then in Bai Jiao's urging, he raised his legs and stepped on the steps, and followed Bai Jiao down to the entrance of the cave.
"Stop!" After walking about a dozen steps, Bai Jiao turned around, tore away Erfu's small hand that was holding her arm, held the candlestick, leaned to the side of the wall, and pointed out the mechanism that closed the entrance to Erfu, "In order to conceal it, the hole can be completely closed after you come down, and even if someone tries to find the entrance piece by piece on the loess that is more than two feet thick, you will definitely not be able to find the entrance position, but you need to move the foot pedal placed on the hole back to the original position before you come down." ”
"There is a hole under the foot, can you explain how I should move back!" Listening to Bai Jiao's words, at the beginning, Erfu was still nodding again and again, but waiting for Bai Jiao to say the end, she finally became angry, reached out and pulled Bai Jiao, who was still showing off, to her side, pointed to the hole with a faint line visible above, and asked through gritted teeth.
Bai Jiaojiao arrogantly shook off Erfu's hand, smoothed the folded placket that Erfu had scratched out, raised his hand and gently knocked on Erfu's head, raised his chin deliberately provocatively, pouted and said: "You are you, stupidly doing this useless work."
Don't stand here, I'll tell you as I go. As she spoke, she pulled Erf, who was furious, and walked quickly to the depths of the tunnel, and at the same time spoke to Erfu in a soft and gentle tone about her whimsy, "I tell you, you ladies from rich families are just ignorant, and you think simply, I thought of safety as early as when I rebuilt the yard.
As the saying goes, there are three holes in the cunning rabbit.
Rabbits know how to make a few holes for themselves to escape, and I am such a shrewd businessman, I must protect my own owner, so when you came to me and asked me to ask someone to rebuild the yard for you, I looked at the rebuilt yard and thought of preparing an escape passage that might be used.
In order to dig this secret passage, I have suffered a lot.
Do you know that this secret passage for escape, the most important thing is to hide and not be known to outsiders, if everyone knows that there is a secret passage, then what is the use of the secret passage, in order to meet this need, I have to come by myself. ”
Speaking of this, Bai Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows arrogantly, and she didn't care if Erfu could see it or not.
