Chapter 82: Lao Shi, are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost?
Su Peisheng watched the two gentlemen get into the car, and instinctively, he immediately wanted to take the bowl of noodles away.
Unexpectedly, Master Jiu's eyes were very sharp. He sniffed and said, "What is this? It smells so good."
Seeing that it was them, the Fourth Master, out of camaraderie over their past experience of beating someone up together, asked, "Have you had your meal?"
The Tenth Master nodded very sincerely and said, "I used it."
Jiu Ye simply shook his head: "No, it's a coincidence that I came here. Fourth Brother is making something delicious."
As he said that, he picked up the chopsticks and started to pick up the noodles in the bowl.
He looked at it carefully. "These noodles look different than usual. How come they smell so good without any meat? Where did Fourth Brother hire a new chef?"
The Fourth Master glanced at the noodles with a nonchalant expression, as if he didn't care at all and said, "It's just some random food made by a little girl."
He then said, "Su Peisheng, bring some of the crispy walnut cheese that Fu Jin brought. You can fill your stomachs first."
"Hey," Su Peisheng responded, and immediately wanted to take this opportunity to take his noodles away.
Unexpectedly, Jiu Ye stopped him and said, "Fourth Brother, what's so delicious about walnut curd? It's so greasy, and the sweetness makes me choke. I can't drink much water on the way, it's very inconvenient. I don't want to eat it anymore. I'll just try your noodles."
The fourth master frowned and glanced at the noodles, his sword-like brows slightly furrowed. He wondered how much the girl had brought for him. He hoped they would not eat it all at once.
Su Peisheng thought about it and took out the plate of snacks.
Speaking of their wife, she was kind enough to send a bunch of snacks.
It was packed into a big box, with icing-coated pea yellow, dragon beard cakes, and cheese.
This was the same thing she'd always prepared before going out. If Fu Jin had been more thoughtful, she wouldn't have prepared only these cloyingly sweet snacks that required a lot of tea. And every time she went out, she'd always prepared these, which would spoil in a few days, causing internal heat in the winter and attracting bugs in the summer.
It is said that Su Peisheng ate the most of this snack, and now he is afraid when he sees it.
It would be a good thing if Ninth Master and Tenth Master could help digest two pieces.
But things went against his wishes. When the dim sum was served, the two gentlemen didn't even glance at it. They were all staring at the noodles in his big bowl.
Su Peisheng: “…”
In the cold winter, who doesn’t want to eat a bowl of noodles with boiling hot soup?
Su Peisheng thought that if he were the Ninth Master or the Tenth Master, he would also choose noodles.
As expected, Jiu Ye picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
The Tenth Master beside him was also a little anxious, and slapped Su Peisheng on the brim of his hat: "Quick, bring me a pair of chopsticks."
"Brother Jiu, eat slowly and leave some for me."
Su Peisheng stared at the second half of the noodles that was snatched away, and went to pick up the chopsticks unwillingly.
I thought to myself that it would be better if these two gentlemen left earlier.
The people outside the carriage were silent, but they exchanged glances while listening to the lively noise inside, with smiles in their eyes.
I wish these two gentlemen could eat a few more bowls of noodles.
Their Prince was a man of few words, and he would never be kind to the other princes. He had suffered so much because of this incident. It would be a great pleasure to have the opportunity to interact more with his brothers.
Furthermore, although these two people are young, the power behind them is indeed not to be ignored. The Ninth Master's business is now flourishing, and the Tenth Master's uncle's family is even more influential in the court. The Eighth Master often tries to win them over.
If the two of them were really won over by the Eighth Master, it would be a very tricky matter.
If you stand on the side of your master, that would naturally be great.
The Ninth Master and the Tenth Master in the carriage naturally had no idea of the silent plot outside.
They are now busy eating a bowl of instant noodles.
Two pancakes, also half a bowl, Jiu Ye ate in a more polite manner, and the two bites were not too little.
The Tenth Master was different from him. He picked up nearly half of the food with one chopstick and put it into his mouth in one bite. It looked so delicious just by looking at him.
Everyone was stunned by the way he ate.
After the Tenth Master swallowed his mouthful of noodles, he immediately gave the Fourth Master a thumbs-up: "Fourth brother, this noodle is good!"
As he spoke, he used his second chopsticks to scoop out the remaining half. When Jiu Ye came to his senses, only some crumbs were left in the bowl.
His fair face suddenly turned the color of liver with anger: "Old Ten! Are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost?"
Master Shi blinked twice and threw down his chopsticks: "There's too little noodles here. I haven't tasted it yet."
Jiu Ye was so angry that he slapped him on the forehead: "I told you to eat it, and you still said it didn't taste good. I didn't taste it, okay?"
Master Shi touched his forehead with a look of grievance and said, "Brother Jiu, please move aside. I want to drink some soup." Then he pushed Master Jiu away, picked up the big bowl, and really started to drink the soup.
The Ninth Master was so angry that he was waving his claws and fangs, as if he was going to beat the Tenth Master up in the next second.
The Fourth Master beside him pinched his brows with a headache, and finally said, "Su Peisheng, give them two more bowls."
As soon as these words came out, the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master, who were about to fight, immediately turned around to look at the Fourth Master and said in tacit understanding: "Thank you, Fourth Brother."
Fourth Master: “…” I always feel like I’ve been tricked.
"What are you two doing here today?"
"Of course I'm worried that Fourth Brother would be lonely on the road, so I came here to chat with him." said Jiu Ye.
Tenth Master also echoed from the side: "That's right, we are not like Third Brother, who has many beautiful women around him, so we brothers can just talk together."
The Fourth Master picked up his book again and didn't bother to pay attention to them.
The leader, Su Peisheng, took out the noodles and placed them in their respective bowls, then began to add noodles, seasonings and water, which immediately attracted the attention of the two masters.
"What's this for? Can you do it without calling the cook?"
Su Peisheng smiled and nodded: "In response to Master Jiu, this is very convenient. You just need to fill it with boiling water, no need for a cook."
When these words were spoken, both of them were surprised.
The Tenth Master reached out and picked up the pancake, looking at it over and over again.
Su Peisheng then continued, "My dear two masters, if you want a stronger taste, you can add more of this seasoning. If you want a lighter taste, add less."
Ninth Master and Tenth Master immediately turned into curious babies, staring at it without blinking, and lifting the lid to take a look every once in a while, with great interest.
The two were about fifteen or sixteen years old. Even though they had finished their meal, they still ate two more pieces of bread each.
Now he was leaning against the carriage and didn't want to move.
The Fourth Master, however, immediately dismissed them: "When you're full, return to your respective carriages. If you have nothing else to do, take a nap or find some books to read. Don't waste time here."
The Ninth Master and the Tenth Master looked at each other, and then the Ninth Master smiled and pushed Wangcai, who was next to the Fourth Master, aside and sat next to the Fourth Master himself.
"Fourth brother, let's talk."
Wangcai was woken up several times while he was sleeping, and he was really in a bad mood.
She rubbed against the Fourth Master's legs twice and hummed twice.
The fourth master patted its head and said, "Go out and play, but you must follow the carriage."
Wangcai happily spun around and jumped off the carriage.
Su Peisheng saw that the fourth master's sweetheart jumped out of the carriage. What could he do?
He didn't care about the servants in the house and immediately got out of the carriage and ordered the eunuchs outside: "Be sure to keep a close eye on Wangcai. If he gets too far, call him back immediately."
He was quite worried, so he squatted on the carriage and watched Wangcai, fearing that it would run away.
Inside the carriage, Master Jiu rubbed his hands and said, "Fourth brother, there's a wild forest ten miles ahead. I heard from my eldest brother and the others that this forest is perfect for hunting. If you're lucky, you might even encounter a white fox. Why don't we give it a try?"
The Tenth Master's eyes sparkled: "Yes, Fourth Brother, let's go in and take a look around, maybe we can catch some prey."
