It's rare for Xiao Linmu not to leave immediately after eating, but to stay in the yard with Xia Yi for an afternoon.
"Have you finished your work?" When Xia Yi comes back from the kitchen, he can't help but ask when he sees Xiao Linmu sitting in the pavilion with a book.
The mission of the southern region has not left, and Xiao Linmu has not been so leisurely for a long time.
Xiao Linmu put down the book in his hand and said, "don't worry."
In fact, Xiao Linmu is not as leisurely as he said, but he just heard Xia Yi's word "comfortable", and he didn't want to leave.
Xia Yi sits down at the stone pier beside Xiao Linmu, suddenly remembers something and stands up again.
"Did I affect your reading?" she asked
Xiao Linmu shook his head, stretched out a hand, pulled Xia Yi's arm, motioned her to sit down, "No."
After Xia Yi sat down again, Xiao Linmu relaxed his hand and turned the pages of the book again.
Xia Yi is also a rare leisure. She puts her arms on the stone table and looks at Xiao Linmu reading with her head tilted.
It's not long before summer, and there's a lake on one side of the pavilion. It's cool in the breeze.
Before long, Xia Yi's upper and lower eyelids will stick together, breathing also gradually more even.
Xia Yi's sleep is too pleasant. When Xia Yi opens her eyes again, she will see that the surrounding environment turns into a soft yellow.
It's getting dark. Xiao Linmu doesn't know when to hang several lanterns around the pavilion to make the whole pavilion bright.
And Xiao Linmu still kept the previous posture, looking at the book, as if he had never moved.
Xia Yi blinked his eyes, slightly adapted to the light in front of him, and then slowly straightened up.
As soon as I sat up, I heard a "rub" sound coming from behind.
She looked back and saw a robe lying quietly on the ground, which should have slipped from her back when she just got up.
"Awake?"
"Well." Xia Yi answers and stretches her numb arms. "It's so late. Why don't you call me?"
Xiao Linmu said: "anyway, it's nothing. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Xia Yi thinks that's the same truth.
For the sake of Ruyi building, Xia Yi hardly had enough sleep a few days ago. Today's sleep can be regarded as making up for all the sleep she lacked before.
In addition to the numbness of both arms, the whole body is really comfortable.
The next day, Xia Yi sees shopkeeper he as soon as he arrives at Ruyi building.
Although shopkeeper he sometimes comes to Ruyi building to help Xia Yi settle accounts, he never comes here so early.
It's too early to have a table for the diners.
"Shopkeeper he, why did you come so early today?" Xia Yi asked.
Shopkeeper he didn't answer. Instead, he directly asked, "what's Jinyu gouge?"
"Well?"
This dish is clearly the one Xia Yi just cooked for Nan Qianyue yesterday. Today, shopkeeper he comes to ask. Xia Yi is inevitably a little strange.
Shopkeeper he said: "well, yesterday someone came to ask me what kind of dish is Jinyu gouge. They said they heard it in Ruyi building. But I haven't seen the name of the dish on the menu. Is it a new dish?"
"Well?" Xia Yi is still confused.
After casually looking for a young man to ask, Xia Yi just understands the reason.
It turned out that the story of Xia Yi cooking for Nan Qianyue spread in the palace yesterday, and naturally some officials and family members would hear the news.
Just a little inquiry, you will know that the king of Jin invited the cook from Ruyi building.
They just heard the name of the dish and didn't know what it was.
Someone sent someone specially to Ruyi building to order dishes, and asked for jinyuchui.
At that time, other diners heard it.
The more you can't eat, the more you feel curious. So the legend about this dish spreads more widely. I don't know how it spread to shopkeeper he.
That's why shopkeeper he came to Ruyi building early in the morning.
"So what kind of dish is this golden delicious Shopkeeper he asked.
Xia Yi simply described it to shopkeeper he.
"So... It was you who cooked for the little princess of Nanyu yesterday?" Shopkeeper he asked in surprise.
"..." is it too late to ask this question now
"I remember one of your questions is what kind of food is Golden Jade food..." Xia Yi couldn't help saying.
He shopkeeper a Leng, also smile, "legend and confirm or not the same."
"..." what's the point?
Shopkeeper he didn't care about Xia Yi's reaction. He directly rubbed his hands and said to Xia Yi, "since there are so many people asking, and there is such a publicity effect of the little princess of the southern region, let's add Jin Yu to the menu."
Xia Yi shook her head and said, "no way."
"Why?" Shopkeeper he asked.
Xia Yi replied: "I seem to have forgotten to say just now that the fish slice used in this dish is raw fish slice, which requires that the quality of the fish should be very high, and it should be very fresh. It takes too much manpower and material resources to ensure these two points..."
After all, shopkeeper he is also very old. Xia Yi only says a little, and he immediately understands.
"Ah... Ok..."
Shopkeeper he said with regret that it was like losing hundreds of millions of taels of gold.
Seeing shopkeeper he, Xia Yi couldn't help laughing, "shopkeeper he, do you think that so many dishes in our Ruyi building are not as good as Jinyu's
Shopkeeper he flattened the corners of his mouth and said with pride: "how can it be? Which dish of our Ruyi building won't be praised? "
Xia Yi laughs. Shopkeeper he's changing his mood too fast.
Just then, he saw that someone had come to the door of the restaurant.
"What would you like to eat, my guest?" The small Si immediately greets up to say.
At this time, it's too early to eat. Xia Yi's eyes can't help looking at the door.
See that person to see a circle in the restaurant, then directly toward summer meaning this direction came.
The man was dressed in men's clothes, but he was not very big. He looked about the same height as Xia Yi, and he was not big. After his waist was completely tied up, he was as big as a man with big hands.
Look at the face again, the baby fat on the slightly round face has not completely faded.
Although wearing men's clothes, Xia Yi recognized that the person was not someone else. It was nanqianyue, the little princess of southern regions, whom she had just met yesterday.
Nan Qianyue wears men's clothes, so she doesn't want to expose her identity.
Xia Yi didn't pierce it either, and said to Nan Qianyue who had already come: "I don't know what my guest is doing here this time."
Nan Qianyue said, "I heard that you have opened a restaurant. I've come here to have a look."
