Chapter 55: Being a cook in the middle of the night?



However, before she could ask who the other person was, his voice suddenly came from the darkness.

"Second Miss, do you still remember the life-saving grace you gave me in the Qinhuai River two months ago?"

"Our master said that he has thought of how the second young lady can repay his kindness. Second young lady, please come with me tonight, please?"

Beads of sweat instantly appeared on Li Qingluo's forehead.

Is that the person?

She thought of the four-and-a-half-foot-long sword on the black-sailed boat.

In this matter, she indeed still owed that person a great favor.

However, if these are that person's men, then their skills are really terrifying!

Her Red Maple Pavilion couldn't be said to be an iron bucket, but at least it was impossible that there was no sound at all.

There are two maids on duty outside the door every night, and Aunt Que'er and Aunt Deng in her yard are also skilled.

Although she herself would not say that she was very powerful, she was no longer as blind as before and was unaware of anything.

But this person still managed to sneak into her room quietly.

If he wanted to kill someone, what difference would it make to them whether the entire Jinling City had walls or not?

"good!"

Li Qingluo was very aware of the situation and knew that he was no match for this person.

So she put away her sword and simply agreed.

She had been worried about this matter, and since she couldn't avoid it, she might as well go.

Zhui Yu was secretly surprised in the dark.

These two girls are quite courageous.

Zhui Yu came silently, and even though he brought Li Qingluo with him when he left, he still made no sound, just like a gust of wind passing by.

Guiyuan.

Returning to this place again, Li Qingluo didn't feel nervous at all, and even felt a little relaxed.

Several mute slaves had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When they saw Li Qingluo, they came forward enthusiastically and happily.

They even discovered that Li Qingluo's skin had become whiter and her appearance had become much more beautiful.

They pointed to their faces and made happy gestures. For some reason, Li Qingluo felt a little happy when he saw them.

But what she didn't expect was that this person brought her to Guiyuan just to ask her to cook a meal!

Zhui Yu, his face masked, clutched his sword and said coldly, "Our master doesn't eat heavy oily foods, and his diet is rather light. Just make whatever the second young lady wants."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Li Qingluo: ...

Well, it turns out that she was caught here tonight to be a cook.

However, if a life-saving favor can be repaid with just a meal, isn't she taking too much advantage?

Li Qingluo thought, it was probably because that person had everything he needed, and he must have many capable people around him, so after thinking about it for a few months, he found that there was no place for her to be used at all, so he simply asked her to cook just one meal, and that would be the end of the matter, right?

As he thought about it, he rolled up his sleeves.

Li Qingluo first looked at the ingredients available in the kitchen, and then quickly got started.

She first stewed a pot of white porridge in a small sand pot, adding only a little vegetable leaves and a few grains of salt.

Then, he quickly kneaded the dough, prepared the filling, and made a dish of mushroom and meat dumplings.

Then he added a dish of shredded green bamboo shoots.

Seeing some lively yellow croakers, I killed and fried two of them.

Finally, I also fried some yam and green beans.

Three dishes, a dessert, and a bowl of porridge.

But she finished everything in just half an hour.

Although he was busy and sweating, Li Qingluo did it sincerely.

She knew that she had not only suffered some superficial injuries last time, but also had internal injuries caused by Li Kechuan hitting her back hard with a stick.

But she was fine afterwards, so it must be that person who saved her.

She recuperated in Guiyuan for two days, and the mute slaves took good care of her. This was the first time in her two lifetimes that an outsider had treated her like this.

Although she didn't know who that person was, she actually felt a rare warmth in her heart...

The mute slaves placed the dishes on the stone table in the yard, and then brought over a screen.

In front of you is a lotus pond, and on the right are a few osmanthus trees.

It is the golden autumn season, and the fragrance of osmanthus is so strong that it is refreshing.

Li Qingluo was asked to sit down, and the mute slave raised his finger to signal her not to speak.

When Li Qingluo was wondering what this meant, a tall figure walked over from behind the screen.

Li Qingluo froze instantly.

Is that...younger?

I only saw that this young man's legs and body were unusually tall.

It seems like she has long, slightly curly hair.

He was wearing a spacious cloak that hung loosely on his already broad body.

As for the man's appearance, it was not clear through the screen.

Li Qingluo stood up and bowed towards the screen.

Just think of it as a way of expressing gratitude to this person for saving my life that night.

She soaked in the Qinhuai River that night, and even now she feels a chill in her bones when she thinks about it.

But this person seems to particularly like quietness?

She was clearly on the black-sailed boat that night, but there was no light on, which made her think it was an empty boat, so she thought of approaching it.

And there are a room full of mute slaves.

It's the same tonight. Even though he likes quietness, why does he want her to sit here and not let her speak?

Li Qingluo was not a shameless person. Since this person didn't like it, she would just do her duty and sit there to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond under the moonlight.

Occasionally I would peek at the shadow on the screen and find that he was already eating.

He seems to... like the food is quite appetizing?

Li Qingluo slowly breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the moon which was exceptionally bright tonight, and a smile appeared on his face.

After Li Qingluo was sent back, Zhuiyu returned to Guiyuan and brought a small plate of cut mooncakes to Duan Rongshi's table.
