"Haha, fine, I won't get involved. Let's see what you can do. I'll make puffer fish tomorrow, so forget about eating it." Although she knew her husband had good intentions, Su Nuannuan just couldn't get used to his tone of "women shouldn't make trouble", so she stood up angrily and said, "I'm going back to sleep, you guys continue to discuss important matters."
"Um... let me think about this matter first." Duan Tingxuan saw his wife leave in anger, and he quickly stood up and bowed to Su Donglou: "Goodbye first."
"Hey, Tingxuan, what are you doing..."
Su Donglou was puzzled, but heard Duan Tingxuan lower his voice and say: "Shh, your sister-in-law doesn't know how to open the secret passage. If she is stuck in front of the door and can't get out, I will lose face, and I will be the one who suffers in the end." After that, he ignored Su Donglou's stupid expression as if he was struck by lightning, and hurriedly followed Su Nuannuan away.
As for Lu Fengyu mentioned by Su Donglou, Su Nuannuan found that even if she used her imagination to the utmost, she could not imagine what this person was like: he was greedy and unwilling to kill, but he was also insidious and cunning. They were clearly two different people, weren't they? Or did Lu Fengyu have a dual personality?
It was not until she saw Lu Fengyu in person, the man who aroused the enthusiasm of all the curious bugs in her belly, that she finally understood Su Donglou's contradictory evaluation of this man.
Su Nuannuan was lucky. The next day, she followed Chang San and his wife to the mansion to familiarize herself with the environment. If nothing unexpected happened, she would "work" here in the future. In view of her expertise, Chang San specially "used his connections" to arrange her in the small kitchen, where she would be responsible for Su Donglou's meals alone.
With a dish of puffer fish soup and a dish of braised pig's trotters with soybeans, Su Nuannuan was easily "promoted" to the head of the small kitchen and had absolute say. At this moment, the maids were clearing the leftovers from the upper room. She had just made a pot of puffer fish noodles to eat with the cooks. As soon as the noodles were ready, she heard someone whisper, "That Mr. Lu is here again. Oh my god, I don't know who is going to be unlucky this time."
"Which Mr. Lu?"
How could Su Nuannuan miss such a gossip opportunity? Being the wife of the prince in the Marquis's mansion, even if she has tried her best to show her true colors, she still has to be reserved when necessary. It's not as free as being a cook. For example, the action of squeezing together with other cooks and peeping at them at this moment is something that should never happen to the wife of the prince.
Therefore, Su Nuannuan did not feel any pressure when she lowered her status from being the wife of a high-ranking prince to being a little cook. She adapted very well.
A man in his early thirties walked leisurely along the corridor in the courtyard. He was wearing a flowing lake blue robe, which made his thin figure look as tall and straight as a bamboo.
Compared to his tall and straight figure, his facial features are not exquisite. But he is very comfortable to look at, especially his eyes. They are as clear as a pond, and their unfathomable level is comparable to that of Duan Tingxuan and Su Donglou. Perhaps all the sinister guys have such eyes.
However, what impressed people the most was his demeanor. He was free and easy, just like a banished immortal, and one glance at him was enough to captivate people.
There were several apricot and peach trees planted on both sides of the corridor. At this time, a spring breeze blew. Hundreds of petals fell with the wind, some falling on the man's hair or at his feet. He walked in the rain of flowers, his hair fluttering in the wind, and it turned into a painting. The person in the painting was elegant and peaceful, walking on the fragrance, which made the painting more distant and the world clear.
In terms of facial features, this man is naturally not as radiant as Duan Tingxuan and Su Donglou. In terms of temperament, he does not have the calm and noble character of Duan Tingxuan or the majestic and elegant character of Su Donglou. However, he makes Su Nuannuan feel "astonished by a natural beauty". You know, although those two guys are also pleasing to the eye for the foodie, they have never given her such a stunning feeling. Even the astonishment she felt when she first saw Aunt Jing and Xue Zhilan cannot be compared with the feeling she had about this man. To them, Su Nuannuan finally realized that they are all human beings, but this man gave her the feeling of an immortal, a real immortal who was demoted to the mortal world.
"Do you know that I hate your out-of-touch attitude the most? You are obviously a foodie, but you have to act like an exiled immortal. Who are you trying to fool?"
A cold voice came into her ears. Su Nuannuan looked up and saw Su Donglou leaning lazily against the door, staring at Lu Fengyu who was slowly walking up the stairs with an unfriendly look, his tone full of ridicule.
"I'm really sorry, but it's hard to change the temperament I developed since childhood." Lu Fengyu smiled faintly, his voice gentle and clear.
"This is what I hate the most. If you were pretending to be generous, I wouldn't hate you so much." Su Donglou snorted coldly, and did not give up his seat. He just asked coldly: "Tell me, what are you doing here this time?"
"It's true that people die when compared to people and goods are thrown away when compared to goods. I thought our master was a rare talent, but compared to this man, he is just a rogue." Su Nuannuan shook her head and spoke boldly, which attracted a lot of echoes, but soon everyone woke up and quickly jumped away from her, whispering a warning: "Madam Wang, this is okay to joke in private, but don't let the master hear it, otherwise no matter how delicious your food is, he will have to deal with you. The master hates Mr. Lu the most."
"What do you mean by hateful? He must be jealous and envious." Su Nuannuan laughed, but a cook next to her covered her mouth tightly. She heard her anxiously say, "My dear wife, please don't tell the truth carelessly. The consequences will be serious."
Before she finished her words, Su Donglou's cold gaze drifted over. The cook was so scared that she lowered her head and pulled Su Nuannuan into the kitchen, deciding not to come out before dark.
Is this Lu Fengyu a bad guy? A villain who is as bad as Shui'er? It's unbelievable. Although there is a Lu Xiangchuan in Gu Long's novels, Su Nuannuan asks herself if she is Lu Xiangchuan, and she can never compare to the temperament and demeanor of this Lu Fengyu.
What kind of evil is this? An anti-human and anti-social personality? Is his superficial elegance a cover for his inner evil, so he joined the evil-minded King Xiangyang and tried to gain the credit of following the emperor?
While eating noodles, Su Nuannuan's mind was still not away from Lu Fengyu, when she suddenly heard a few screams outside. She stood up and was about to go out to check what happened, when she saw a man rushing into the small kitchen. His eyes darted around and finally stopped at the pot that was still filled with noodles. Who else could it be but Lu Fengyu?
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu..."
Everyone in the kitchen except Su Nuannuan, just like avoiding the plague, scattered to various corners far away from him. This scene made Su Nuannuan, who had experienced countless big scenes, feel uneasy. She said with a stiff upper lip: "Mr. Lu... do you want to eat a bowl of noodles?" According to the logic of a foodie, the other party could only go into the kitchen for the only steaming noodles, right? Su Nuannuan didn't know Lu Fengyu, but she thought she knew foodies.
Lu Fengyu turned around suddenly, probably not expecting that someone would dare to talk to him. He looked Su Nuannuan up and down, and suddenly smiled brightly, pointing at the noodle pot and said, "I smell the remaining aroma of puffer fish in the dining room. There is puffer fish in these noodles, right? Give me a bowl."
"You... are not afraid of death?" Su Nuannuan blinked her eyes. She couldn't connect this man whose eyes lit up when he mentioned puffer fish with a sinister villain, so she asked subconsciously.
"Hahaha." Lu Fengyu laughed loudly, then stopped laughing abruptly. He rolled his eyes and sneered, "You must not know the saying that good people don't live long, while evil people leave a thousand years behind. The King of Hell would never dare to take a evil person like me." After saying that, he took out a bowl from the cupboard, scooped noodles and said with a smile, "I'll do it myself, don't worry about me."
"oh……"
Su Nuannuan agreed, slowly put down the bowl, and stood not far away, watching this elegant man finish a bowl of not-so-elegant noodles with elegant movements. He was clearly eating like a whirlwind, but why did he make people feel that he didn't have a trace of worldly touch?
"It's delicious, really delicious." Lu Fengyu put down the bowl after finishing his meal and looked at Su Nuannuan meaningfully: "Haha, with your cooking skills, it's no wonder that you became the head of this small kitchen in just half a day. Compared with you, those losers really deserve to be dug a hole and buried alive."
This... is he going to flatter me? After I just gave him a bowl of noodles?
Su Nuannuan stared at Lu Fengyu in a daze, not daring to believe her own guess: Although everyone said that this guy was very bad, but it was a bit too much for him to be so bad that he turned against his mother so quickly? Others would eat with a bowl in hand and then curse their mothers when they put down the bowl, but he would kill the cook when he put down the bowl after eating with a bowl in hand, and he did this kind of thing of repaying kindness with enmity as smoothly as flowing water, basically achieving a seamless transition.
Su Nuannuan felt that she finally had some understanding of this Lu Fengyu: Su Donglou was right, this was a person who was bad to the core, no matter how fresh and refined his appearance was, it could not cover up the dirty heart in his body, no, that's not right, the heart was Duan Tingxuan and Su Donglou, this Lu Fengyu was simply dirty even in his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, blood, muscles, and bones, not only dirty, but also black. It can be said that being bad has become his instinct.
"Yesterday I saw someone killing a puffer fish, and the blood that flowed out was actually red. What a pity."
Who is Su Nuannuan? Is she someone who is willing to suffer a loss? The more Lu Fengyu is like this, the more she becomes more motivated. Seeing that he was about to leave the kitchen after leaving a provocation that would cause endless trouble, she was not willing to let this bastard go so easily, so she pretended to clean up the dishes and said something leisurely.
Sure enough, Lu Fengyu stopped, looked at her curiously and smiled, "That's strange. Although the pufferfish is a fish, it is still a creature of heaven and earth. It is not a demon or a monster, so its blood is naturally red. Why do you still feel sorry for it?"
"Sir, you may not know that there is a kind of seafood with eight legs and one head. We call it Batou. It tastes very delicious, especially the paste inside the head, which is very fresh and fragrant. But there is one thing, the blood of this thing is black, and there is only one blood sac in the head. It is okay if you take it out, but if you can't take it out, your mouth will be black after eating the head. So I thought, it seems that things with black blood taste better."
