"You don't need to sleep in the middle of the night and you're eating so much." An Yan was really speechless to him.

"I'm starving." Yan Qingqiu said, his stomach growling.

An Yan first lit the fire, then began to move the large steamer to the stove, put the things that Yan Qingqiu wanted to eat in it, and then went to wash the rice.

Li Rongsen was also helping out, saying, "Why does it feel like we're cheating?"

Yan Qingqiu said: "Except for the old man, no one dared to open the stove, but we are different. It was An Yan who opened the stove personally, so we don't need to be punished."

"You don't seem to be afraid of old people on a normal day." An Yan said.

"When it comes to food, it's a big deal. If he finds out, he'll probably stop cooking for me. Then I won't be able to live here anymore." Yan Qingqiu said seriously, and then added, "But he won't know. He must be dreaming."

He was wrong. The old man had been woken up. He hated it most when someone disturbed his sweet dreams at night, but he had to get up to see what was going on. The knocking on the door also gave him a headache. He said, "Okay, stop knocking. I'm coming." After saying that, he hurriedly put on a coat and ran to open the door.

I saw a few people standing outside the door.

One of them said: "There is a ghost in the kitchen. A candle was lit for no apparent reason."

"It looks like the ghost is cooking." another person followed suit.

Another person said: "The door is still locked, and the lock is intact, which means it wasn't a human who walked in. It must have been a ghost. We didn't dare to go in."

It's no wonder they would think this way. An Yan can go anywhere she wants. Besides, Li Rongsen and Yan Qingqiu are both very capable and can easily get into the house without unlocking the door.

That lock was not an ordinary lock either. It was specially made by the old man. After all, the kitchen was also a key point. As the saying goes, diseases come from the mouth, all from food, so special attention should be paid.

The old man was concerned when he heard this, and he said, "I'll go and take a look." Then he strode towards the kitchen.

An Yan in the kitchen was almost done, and Yan Qingqiu couldn't wait for the food to be served. He ate while waiting and said to Li Rongsen, "Hey, come and try this, An Yan's food is delicious.

Li Rongsen took it and took a bite, saying, "It is indeed very fragrant, with the scent of osmanthus."

"It's made of osmanthus flowers, right? This is osmanthus cake. You haven't even eaten this before, have you?" Yan Qingqiu couldn't help but laugh at Li Rongsen.

An Yan said: "This is just an ordinary thing, and it's eaten by ordinary people. It's normal that he has never eaten it."

"That's different. This is very common outside, but it's not common in West City." Yan Qingqiu said as he took another bite and said, "It's so delicious. Your cooking skills are really good. Why don't you just stay up and eat until dawn."

At this time, a familiar voice was heard saying, "Who are you? You actually came to the kitchen in West City to steal food. You will go to hell, do you know that?"

Then the old man rushed in, waved his hand, and lit up all the lights in the room.

Yan Qingqiu immediately hid behind Anyan, while Li Rongsen walked forward and said to the old man, "It's me, don't make such a fuss."

The old man was surprised. He took a step back and said, "You..." Then he looked inside and found that An Yan also came out, and she was wearing an apron. He asked quickly, "City Lord, what's going on? Why are you in the kitchen?"

"I'm hungry." An Yan said disapprovingly.

"Hey, why didn't you tell me so I could ask them to make you something delicious? How could you cook for yourself?" The old man said as he walked up to Yan Qingqiu and pointed at him, "What's wrong with you? Why didn't you tell me? How could you let the city lord work so hard!"

Yan Qingqiu felt wronged. This old man didn't dare to scold Li Rongsen, so he spoke for himself, saying, "You sleep like a dead pig, who can wake you up!"

"Did you call me?" The old man was very unconvinced, and then he motioned for the servants to come in and said, "Come in and work."

"No need, I've already prepared it. I'll just eat a little and then go back to my room to sleep." An Yan said.

The old man sighed twice, and then said, "Then please go back to your room first, I will ask them to bring it up."

"Okay." An Yan didn't want to embarrass the old man, so she strode back to her room.

Before leaving, Yan Qingqiu picked up another piece of cake and followed An Yan's footsteps out, while Li Rongsen was the last one to walk out.

At this time, the old man called him and said, "Mr. Li, please stay."

Li Rongsen turned around to look at the old man and asked, "Old man, do you have something to say to me?"

"If the city lord is hungry, he should have told me. Besides, he has been tired all night. You shouldn't let her stay. Just come and tell me, and I will naturally make some arrangements. Don't do this again in the future. It's just this time." The old man explained to Li Rongsen seriously.

Li Rongsen felt that these words were meaningful.

The old man added: "Mr. Li, you have worked hard too. Please go back to your room first. I will arrange it here." After saying that, he smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Li Rongsen was totally confused, but he had no choice but to walk out and go to An Yan's room.

An Yan and Yan Qingqiu were sitting at a large wooden table, one drinking water and the other eating snacks.

"Are you sleepy?" Li Rongsen asked them as he walked into the room.

"I'm definitely not sleepy. I'm just waiting for the cakes to be served." Yan Qingqiu was almost tired of waiting, and when she saw Meidie coming outside, she said, "I seemed to hear some noise just now, and I was wondering if something happened here. Why aren't you guys sleeping yet?"

"We are waiting for food, you can sit down and eat with us." Yan Qingqiu said.

Mei Die was not hungry just now, but now she felt hungry when she heard Yan Qingqiu mention food. She sat next to him and said, "Okay, I'll eat something before going to sleep."

"The moonlight tonight is really beautiful. If you really can't get up tomorrow, you can set off a little later." An Yan said.

"There is no set time for us to go. It's up to us." Yan Qingqiu said.

An Yan looked at Li Rongsen and asked him, "Are you wearing white clothes?"

"Yes, the old man prepared two white clothes for me." Li Rongsen nodded and said, "But in fact, we don't need so many. We are going back and forth on the same day, and there is no need to change clothes."

"I'm also wearing a white dress, and it's very beautiful. I found that the brocade here is really good, and the embroiderer's skills are also good." Meidie also answered. She liked the white dress very much.

After a while, the old man ordered his servants to bring in food such as cakes, and specially prepared two pots of food, which he placed in front of Li Rongsen, and said to him: "This is specially for honoring you, sir. Please accept it."

Li Rongsen didn't understand what was going on. He opened the lid and quickly closed it again. He asked the old man with a sullen face, "Why are you taking supplements in the middle of the night?"

"You have to take supplements so late at night, otherwise you will be exhausted. I really want to be kind to you." The old man said seriously, which aroused the curiosity of Yan Qingqiu and Mei Die.

Even Anyan became interested, thinking that this was another old man with some special intention.

The old man just lowered his eyes and chuckled, his smile was quite meaningful.
