Chapter 165 Treating You as an Outsider



At this moment, Qi Yize suddenly blurted out, "I saw it! Just now, Master Xuanzhen took the initiative to serve food to his good disciple. He even said that he could eat as much as he wanted!"

"Young Master He, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

At this moment, He Yang felt utterly cold inside.

This monk is being too unfair! He has to find a way to turn the tables.

He Yang forced a smile and replied, "Nothing, I just wanted to confirm something."

Qi Yize quickly pressed, "What is it? Can you tell me?"

He Yang stared at Zhao Yunjin and said, "Sixth Prince, your master never considered you one of his own."

Zhao Yunjin raised an eyebrow and said softly, "What do you mean by that?"

He Yang quickly recounted everything that had just happened.

“He said I’m one of our own, so I should eat less spicy shrimp so that outsiders can eat more.”

"Look, this portion is twice as much as the one I just ate."

Then, he said earnestly, "This old monk clearly treats you like an outsider."

He Yang was secretly plotting against Master Xuanzhen, attempting to sow discord between the master and disciple, and it seemed that the protagonist sensed this.

Master Xuanzhen, who was concentrating on dividing the dishes, suddenly sneezed loudly and without warning.

"Hatch!"

He couldn't help but mutter to himself: Could it be that someone is badmouthing me behind my back?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunjin smiled slightly, a barely perceptible curve appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Actually, it's quite good that he treats me as an outsider."

At least there's plenty of spicy shrimp.

However, Qin Zihao and Qi Yize had different opinions.

This Master Xuanzhen didn't treat Yun Jin like an outsider at all; he clearly treated him like one of his own, wishing he could give him all the spicy shrimp.

This fat guy He is too naive; he was so easily fooled by that cunning old monk.

After a while, Qi Yize gently picked up a piece of glistening fatty intestine and put it in his mouth to chew, unable to help but praise it:

"At first, I thought the intestines were dirty. But I never expected that Miss Yun would have such superb cooking skills, able to cook these smelly and fishy pig offal into such delicious food."

"Not only does it have a wonderful aroma and no greasiness whatsoever, but it also has a chewy and smooth texture."

"I can never get tired of it!"

After saying that, he quickly picked up a few more pieces and put them in his mouth.

Qin Zihao frowned and muttered, "It's not like this isn't the first time you've eaten this stir-fried pork intestines."

"Also, weren't you bedridden yesterday because of an upset stomach? This dish is a bit spicy and can easily irritate your stomach, so you should eat less of it."

Qi Yize gave a guilty smile and chuckled twice: "Hehe! This is my first time trying this dish. It is a bit spicy, but I don't have an upset stomach anymore."

At this moment, Fang Rangrang blinked her bright eyes, munching on a chicken leg with relish, and mumbled indistinctly to Qi Yize, "Brother Yize, Father said that lying is not something a good child should do."

"You naughty child, I clearly saw you eat a huge portion of stir-fried pork intestines yesterday."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yize's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.

Could it be that Miss Yun has forgotten about this clever and mischievous little girl in front of her and didn't ask her to help her keep this secret?

That's true.

Yun Zhizhi did indeed overlook Fang Rangrang, the little one.

Just as Qi Yize was racking his brains trying to figure out how to shut the little girl up, Qin Zihao, standing beside him, widened his eyes and, before Qi Yize could, stared at Fang Rangrang with a look of surprise and asked:

"Little kid, are you saying you saw him enjoying stir-fried pork intestines at the dock yesterday?"

Fang Rangrang nodded vigorously, responding crisply, "That's right! He not only ate this stir-fried pork intestines, but also beer-braised duck, sweet and sour pork, and spicy shrimp... he ate quite a lot of those too."

"He looks incredibly energetic, and his appetite is absolutely amazing!"

What else could Qin Zihao not understand?

He rolled his eyes at Qi Yize and said irritably, "You, Qi Yize, actually dared to fake illness and skip the grand assembly to come here and enjoy the food. Do you know how tired I was yesterday when I helped you with the report?"

Qi Yize quickly shushed him, "Keep your voice down, didn't you see that group of colleagues in front of you? If they hear us, I'm in big trouble."

"Consider this a favor I owe you; I'll pay you back next time."

After two busy hours, it was finally time to close up shop.

Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in a dark blue brocade robe and with a refined demeanor suddenly appeared in front of Yun Zhizhi and stopped her.

Guan Mingshan held a delicate folding fan in his hand and gently waved it, smiling as he said to Yun Zhizhi:

"Boss, could you keep your stall open until evening? I'd like to bring my family here again for dinner."

As he spoke, he unconsciously swallowed, as if he was still immersed in the delicious taste he had just enjoyed.

The taste of that boxed lunch was so wonderful that he couldn't stop thinking about it.

Every bite is filled with a unique aroma and texture, instantly captivating his taste buds.

In response to Guan Mingshan's request, Yun Zhizhi smiled apologetically and patiently explained, "I'm sorry. After careful consideration, we will only be selling boxed meals during lunchtime for the time being."

"If you would like to enjoy this delicious food again, please come again tomorrow."

Upon hearing these words, Guan Mingshan showed a look of regret.

He sighed helplessly, "Alas, what bad luck. I have to set off back to Lizhou Prefecture City first thing tomorrow morning."

He brought his family to Beijing specifically to visit relatives.

During his free time, he went out for a stroll alone and unintentionally followed the bustling crowd to this place.

I originally came here out of curiosity to join in the fun, but I never expected that there would be such a lively and bustling stall on this dock under construction.

Seeing everyone queuing up to buy boxed lunches, he couldn't resist joining the queue.

As a result, he fell in love with the boxed meal after finishing it.

I was originally thinking about whether I could enjoy another delicious meal.

Looks like I won't be able to enjoy it.

After tilting her head and pondering for a moment, Yun Zhizhi blinked her bright eyes and asked, "Uncle, did you try the cold fern root noodles or ants climbing a tree just now?"

Guan Mingshan nodded and replied, "I just bought a dish called 'Ants Climbing a Tree.' I must say, the name of this dish is truly brilliant; it's very fitting to the dish itself."

"The minced meat is like tiny ants, it doesn't look big, but it tastes spicy and delicious. When you eat it with the soft and slippery rice noodles, the taste is simply amazing."
