Chapter 364 I Want to Open a Restaurant in Kuizhou
Baoya rubbed her sleepy eyes and sniffed with her little nose.
Sure enough, I didn't smell the aroma of pork rib soup, but I could faintly smell a faint bitter medicinal smell.
She opened her mouth and was about to say something when the door curtain was suddenly lifted and Rong Bing came in with a bowl of steaming medicine, smiling.
"Ranran is awake? Come, drink this bowl of medicine, and grandpa will give you some candied fruit."
The medicine tasted bitter and unpleasant. Baoya frowned. She had never been sick since she was a child, let alone taking medicine.
But at this moment, she was not in the mood to worry about so many things. She picked up the bowl, held her breath, and drank it in one breath with great courage.
Rong Bing saw that she was drinking happily, and smiled so much that the wrinkles on his old face were stretched out. He handed her the candied fruit that he had prepared long ago.
"Here, grandpa brought you some honey-fried tangerines from the capital. Come and try them and see if they're sweet."
Baoya reached out and pinched a golden, honey-coated tangerine from his big palm, threw it into her mouth, then pushed the rest back, raised her lips and said, "Sweet!"
"Then why don't you want these?" Rong Bing handed over the few remaining honey-fried tangerines in his hand.
Baoya shook her head: "It's too sweet, one is enough. Leave the rest for Grandpa and Master."
Hearing her say this, Rong Bing smiled again: "What a good child! Grandpa won't eat it. Grandpa ate enough in the capital. The rest will be left for Ranran to eat. Grandpa also bought a lot more."
"Thank you, grandpa." The little girl smiled sweetly.
Rong Bing's heart almost melted. He reached out and touched her head and said, "Well, you should rest. Grandfather still has some things to do."
After saying that, he turned and left the room.
Seeing Rong Bing leave, Nan Xuan also stood up to leave, but just as he stood up, a small hand grabbed the hem of his clothes.
He stopped and looked at the little girl who was looking up at him: "You've taken the medicine, what else do you want? As for the pork rib soup, I'll make it now."
Baoya didn't pick up his words, but asked, "Master, where is Brother Xiaojing?"
Rong Bing came in suddenly just now and she didn't have time to ask.
Nan Xuan's expression paused for a moment, then he sat down on the stool again.
As if choosing his words carefully, he said, "Jingzhen... is back home."
go home?
After being with Jingzhen for such a long time, she almost never heard Jingzhen mention his home and family, only saying that he had a brother.
"So...what about his poison? Is he okay?"
Baoya remembered that the hateful golden ring snake finally bit Jingzhen.
There was also the bad guy in a black robe called Snake Wizard. She remembered that there seemed to be thunder in the sky and a landslide occurred in Tiger Tooth Mountain. It was her second brother who protected her and Brother Xiaojing.
"Master, where's my second brother? Is that snake wizard dead?"
She asked several questions in a row, her eyes as bright as lacquer, staring at Nan Xuan intently.
Nan Xuan narrowed his eyes, tilted his head slightly to look at her, and then patiently answered her questions one by one: "Jing Zhen's poison has been cured, and now... he should be on his way back to the capital."
"Your second brother is fine, he's with your grandmother and the others. As for that snake witch, he should be... dead."
When he rushed back to Huya Mountain, Peach Blossom Spring was already in ruins.
He quickly rescued Baoya and the other three, and asked Ling An to settle the Yun family and the villagers hiding in the mountains.
Later, when he settled Baoya, Jingzhen and Yun Chenglu, and returned, he saw the snake witch limping down the mountain with blood on his forehead.
Of course he wasn't going to be polite and started fighting with the snake witch. After breaking the witchcraft, he pierced the snake witch's heart with a bamboo sword.
only……
Nan Xuan frowned and stroked his chin with his slender white fingers.
The snake witch was a member of the Wudu tribe, and he must have practiced a kind of evil magic of his tribe that could increase one's life span.
The snake witch's martial arts skills were not very high, but he was an expert in using poison and witchcraft. He had fought with the snake witch in his early years, and the witch's strange and unpredictable witchcraft was difficult to deal with.
But in the end he won and stabbed the snake wizard in the chest.
I thought the snake wizard was dead, but I didn't expect him to appear again this time.
During this meeting, he pierced the snake witch's heart with a sword again, and no one knew how many lives he had left.
What a trouble! Nan Xuan smacked his lips.
Can't he just die peacefully? Why does he like dying over and over again?
“Master, Master…”
Baoya's sweet voice brought Nanxuan back to his senses.
"What's wrong?" He held up his cheek and looked at Baoya with a smile.
"I heard Fei Meng call Xiao Jing brother the Fifth Prince..."
The little girl asked seriously, with a look of determination that showed she must know the answer.
Nan Xuan sighed. At this point, he couldn't hide it anymore.
"Jingzhen is the fifth prince, and his eldest brother is the current Crown Prince. After I sent you down the mountain that day, I sent a letter to the Crown Prince, and someone from the palace came to take him back yesterday."
"Oh." The little girl nodded. There was not much surprise on her round and pink face, but rather a little dazed.
Nan Xuan was a little worried when he saw her like this: "What's wrong? Are you scared by your brother Xiao Jing's identity?"
Baoya shook her head, her white and tender hands supporting her cheeks: "No."
It turns out that Brother Xiaojing is the fifth prince. It turns out that no matter where he is, he has a noble status.
"Don't be sad." Nan Xuan thought she was sad, so he reached out and rubbed her head, ruffling the two little tufts of hair.
"Let me tell you something. Your master and the Crown Prince are very close. If you miss that brat Jingzhen, I'll take you to the palace to meet him. How about that?"
Baoya didn't answer him, but said: "Master, I want to leave here."
"Ah?" Nan Xuan almost couldn't follow her train of thought. "Leaving here and heading to Beijing?"
Baoya shook her head. "I want to go to Kuizhou. My third sister went to the capital and became the owner of the Fangxian Embroidery Tower. My eldest brother went to Lintianfu to study. I don't want to wait any longer."
"I will work hard to catch up with them. I want to meet Brother Xiaojing through my own efforts."
She said it seriously, and Nan Xuan was almost moved: "Sure, then what do you want to rely on to get ahead?"
A little kid who was only five years old thought that he could transfer some people from Xuantian Pavilion to create a small sect. With his support, he would probably be able to make a name for himself soon.
Kuizhou is close to the capital, and there are not many people with good kung fu skills. Most of them are just fancy moves and have no real skills.
Although Baoya is young, her skills are better than those of many people who are much older.
Then the little girl said, "I want to open a restaurant and cook all kinds of delicious food. It would be great if I could attract everyone in Kuizhou to come and eat there. Then I can spread the fame to the capital and let everyone in the palace know!"
"Then I can invite Brother Xiao Jing to come and eat. I'm going to make a very special dish and leave it just for him!"
Looking at Baoya's bright eyes, Nan Xuan slapped his forehead and thought to himself: Oh! What kind of dream is he having in broad daylight? The little girl is just a foodie.
Forget it, opening a restaurant is a good way to make full use of people’s talents!
