Chapter 508 From now on, the old man will take care of you!
When Jiang Nuanzhi saw him arrive, she smiled and pointed to the noodles in front of her, saying with a grin, "Take a look?"
The old man glanced at it, slightly disappointed, and took a bite of the duck leg: "Is that all? Although the hot pot is delicious, there aren't two dishes. Isn't something missing? Ah Nuan, I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs. We haven't had them in so long. If we could have a bite, it would be so satisfying."
"Okay." Jiang Nuanzhi's voice was clear and crisp.
Seeing Jiang Nuanzhi agree so readily, the old man paused in his act of biting into the duck leg, his eyes widened, and he blinked twice: "Then, I also want to eat sweet and sour pork."
"Yes, no problem."
"I also want to eat boiled fish."
"Okay, I'll ask Chen Shu to go buy fish later."
"I also want to eat tiger-skin chicken feet."
"Okay, sure."
Seeing that Jiang Nuanzhi was all smiles and showed no sign of refusing, the old man blinked twice, then frowned and looked at Jiang Nuanzhi cautiously, asking, "Nuanzhi, is this going to be our farewell dinner? Don't you want to leave me behind?"
You know, these dishes are all very laborious to make. It takes Nuan Yatou a long time to prepare them, and I always have to coax her for a long time before she agrees to make them for me.
As she spoke, she looked over with an increasingly resentful expression.
Jiang Nuanzhi shook her head directly: "No, why break up? We should stay together every day."
"Yes, that's my good girl."
After the old man finished speaking, he seemed to realize something was wrong. He glanced suspiciously at Li Rong beside him and felt that there was something strange in Li Rong's eyes.
Alarm bells rang in my mind, and I tentatively asked, "So... when can we eat it, Nuan'er?"
Jiang Nuanzhi said with a smile, "You can eat whenever you want."
Upon hearing this, the old man jumped two feet high, took two steps back, and looked at Jiang Nuanzhi with a fierce expression: "You, you, you are not Nuan'er! What kind of ghost has possessed my Nuan'er? Show yourself at once!"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "." I really want to slap this pile of noodles in his face.
However, she managed to hold back, and Jiang Nuanzhi even forced a smile. At this moment, she began to admire herself.
When the old man saw that Jiang Nuanzhi was still smiling at him, he couldn't help but shudder. "No, girl, you can't use your tricks on me. Just say what you want to say. My old bones can't take your torment."
Jiang Nuanzhi took a deep breath, her teeth grinding together: "I just felt I should be a little nicer to you and take good care of you, old man."
The old man's face paled, and he couldn't help but lean in and bump into Li Rong: "What did you take my Anuan to do? You've made this girl so neurotic. Wait, am I dreaming?"
As she spoke, she even pinched her own cheek.
After pinching it, he shook his head: "Wait a minute, could it be that the poison has seeped into my lungs and I'm going to die?"
"Stop!" Jiang Nuanzhi's forehead veins throbbed twice: "Stop guessing, I just want to ask you for a favor."
The old man, after hearing this, patted his chest the next second: "You should have said so earlier. You almost scared me to death. So, what is it?"
As he said this, he sat down with his legs crossed.
Before Jiang Nuanzhi could think for a moment, the old man came over with a grin and said, "Wait, Nuanzhi, you can't forget any of the dishes you promised me earlier, can you? I want to add one more, salted egg yolk baked shrimp."
Jiang Nuanzhi's forehead veins throbbed again as she gritted her teeth and said, "You can't eat shrimp."
"Then egg yolk baked... baked..." The old man pondered for a while: "Egg yolk baked chicken leg!"
Jiang Nuanzhi took a deep breath: "How can it taste good?"
"I don't care, I just want to eat."
"OK."
"Oh, and I also want to eat that Sichuan-style 'mouthwatering chicken' from last time. It was so flavorful; even now, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. And the chicken wing rice you made, oh yeah, and that cake, the sweet and soft one."
"besides……"
The old man, engrossed in his meal, suddenly felt a chill from behind. Turning around, he saw Jiang Nuanzhi staring at him with menacing eyes.
The old man swallowed hard, and the next second, he saw Jiang Nuanzhi silently put her hand into his arms.
He was startled, and the next second, he took several steps back, staring at Jiang Nuanzhi warily.
Jiang Nuanzhi rolled her eyes: "I'm really impressed. It's like I actually hit you."
Too lazy to pay him any attention, she placed a piece of paper on the table and slammed a pen on it. "What do you want to eat? Make a list, and I'll make it all for you when I have time tomorrow."
The old man blinked, looking at Jiang Nuanzhi in disbelief: "Nuan girl, are you serious?"
Jiang Nuanzhi took a deep breath: "Really? How could it be fake? Tell me, what else is there besides these?"
The old man glanced at Jiang Nuanzhi's expression, then grinned broadly the next second: "Alright, alright, that's all. You're so easy to talk to, what is it? As long as it's Nuanzhi's request, this old man will do everything in his power to make it a perfect job for you."
After saying that, he sat back down, crossed his legs, and looked at Jiang Nuanzhi with a smile.
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled slightly: "It's nothing serious, I just wanted to tell you about the Emperor's illness, about that Gu poison..."
"I'm not eating anymore!"
Before Jiang Nuanzhi could finish speaking, the old man suddenly interrupted her: "Well, Nuanzhi, I'm not eating anymore. I'm quite full from eating ordinary food."
"Well, I'm going to bed now. Getting old just makes me sleepy."
As the old man spoke, he stood up the next second, slipped away, and made a quick getaway.
Jiang Nuanzhi reacted quickly and grabbed the man, saying, "Grandpa, I haven't finished yet."
Shh, what's that sound?
The old man suddenly became serious.
Jiang Nuanzhi frowned and looked back. The next second, the old man she had grabbed suddenly broke free. However, before he could run away, Jiang Nuanzhi grabbed his other wrist as well.
Jiang Nuanzhi turned around and looked at him with a smile, without saying a word.
Do you think you can fool her with such a simple trick?
The old man sighed dejectedly, frowning as he looked at Jiang Nuanzhi for a long while: "Girl, this is not something you can get involved in. As for that person, just stay away from him. Let's go back to the Great Wilderness once we find Xiao Yuanshan's blood, shall we? I don't like this place."
Jiang Nuanzhi couldn't help but frown. Intuitively, she sensed that the old man's mood was a bit off.
“Old man, but I’m here in the capital as a royal physician. I’m here to treat the Emperor.”
The old man immediately rolled his eyes: "His illness is extremely virulent; no one can cure it. Neither you nor I can!"
After thinking for a moment, he grabbed Jiang Nuanzhi and said very seriously, "You're a royal physician just to make money, right? The old man will support you from now on. He has plenty of money. Just wait! I'll get it for you right now."
After saying that, he turned and left.
