At around eleven o'clock in the morning, when Mu Zhen was thinking about where to eat, he smelled a strong smell of chicken soup, and immediately he no longer had the mood to stay in the house.
So he said to Zhang Xu: "I'm going out for a walk."
After hearing Mu Zhen's words, Zhang Xu knew what Mu Zhen wanted to do, but he did not stop him and nodded in agreement.
Because he knew that all this was the little girl's plan, he naturally had to cooperate with her.
"Master Xiao, the person is coming out." Mu Tou immediately said to Lu Xiaoxiao after seeing Mu Zhen coming out of the lobby.
After hearing what Mu Tou said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded to show that she understood. Then she asked Mu Tou and the others to find a place to hide, while she opened the lid of the casserole to allow the aroma of the chicken soup to spread more quickly.
"I was wondering why it smelled so good. Turns out you were making chicken soup." When Mu Zhen walked into the kitchen, he saw Lu Xiaoxiao squatting in front of the stove making chicken soup, so he spoke to Lu Xiaoxiao.
After hearing what Mu Zhen said, Lu Xiaoxiao looked up at him. Then, while stirring the chicken soup in the pot with a spoon, she asked him, "Why are you here?"
"That boy asked me to come."
"Why did he ask you to come here?"
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
"Want some chicken soup?"
Mu Zhen swallowed unconsciously after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, but when he thought about the importance of the matter, he still shook his head firmly.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Mu Zhen shaking his head, she was quite relieved. At least Mu Zhen did not sell out Zhang Xu just for a pot of chicken soup.
But she still had to continue testing, so she added: "A pot of chicken soup and ten chicken legs."
"No, I can't betray that kid just for a few bites of chicken soup."
"Add another roast chicken. If you don't agree, forget it. We'll keep it for ourselves."
"No, I really can't tell you about that."
"So mysterious?"
"It's not mysterious. I just have to do what I promised to others. This is my principle in life."
"No room for negotiation?"
"No."
After hearing what Mu Zhen said, Lu Xiaoxiao looked towards the slightly opened door. When he saw Gray Cat and the others nodding at her, he said to Mu Zhen, "Since you don't plan to exchange secrets for food, then buy it with money. This pot of chicken soup is ten dollars."
"Okay." After Mu Zhen finished speaking, he took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Lu Xiaoxiao. Then she asked Lu Xiaoxiao, "Do you sell chicken legs and roasted chicken?"
“Not for sale.”
“I can offer a high price.”
After hearing what Mu Zhen said, Lu Xiaoxiao still refused, because she didn't make chicken legs or roast chicken at all, so where would she get chicken legs and roast chicken to sell to Mu Zhen.
Mu Zhen was a little disappointed when he saw that Lu Xiaoxiao rejected his request, but when he saw the pot of chicken soup, his mood improved.
So he didn't continue chatting with Lu Xiaoxiao, but directly picked up the spoon and drank the chicken soup.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Mu Zhen start drinking the chicken soup, she did not stay in the kitchen, but turned and walked out of the house.
When she walked out of the house, she saw the monkeys walking towards her, so she winked at them and walked out of the yard.
When she left the yard, she said to Gray Cat and the others, "It seems that the old man is still reliable. At least he did not betray Zhang Xu."
"That doesn't prove he's on our side."
"You have to trust Zhang Xu's judgment. If that old man was really a bad guy, Zhang Xu wouldn't have come to him three times to invite him out of retirement."
