Chapter 86

There came the sound of crying and howling for a long time.

Xia Xi doesn't know what to do.

Qi'er didn't speak. She spread the paper on the table, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and concentrated on practicing her own words.

Tiger son runs over with a white face and pulls Xia Xi's sleeve out. He wants her to persuade him. His voice is very urgent,

"Sister in law, my mother will kill my elder sister and second sister."

Xia Xi stood still and looked down at Hu Zi. "Hu Zi, do you know why they were beaten?"

Tiger shook his head, "I don't know."

"Because they throw you on the mountain and want you to live and die. If you don't happen to be rescued, you will die on the mountain in three days."

Hu Zi loosened her hand and raised her head. Her face was full of doubts. "Why did the elder sister and the second sister do this?"

Because you ruined their business.

Xia Xi touched the tiger's head, this sentence did not come out after all, but said, "sister-in-law does not know, as long as you remember, no matter where they want to take you, you do not go."

……

Over there, Niu Shi was exhausted. He beat ling'er and zhi'er to the ground and couldn't get up. He still felt that he couldn't get rid of his anger. He struggled for another person to give him a hand, and then he threw the broom on ling'er. "It's a damned girl's idea. Since Tiger was born, you don't like him. I opened one eye and closed the other. I just don't know. I didn't expect that your mind became more and more vicious, and you threw him on the mountain. He is your brother. How can you do it? "

Ling'er is lying on the ground with blood flowing from the corners of her mouth and a few scratches on her face. A little blood is seeping out and she doesn't say a word. The hatred in her eyes is stronger. She is holding her hands tightly on the ground and her nails have been dug into the soil.

Zhi'er is not much better than her. Seeing that Niu's remaining anger is not gone, she tries to shrink her body and reduce her sense of existence.

……

For several days in a row, Xia Xi went to the villa to cook, and every day she did it with different patterns.

Wind Che eat of body and mind comfortable, with temper also a lot.

The people in the villa also had a smile on their faces. The villa swept away the past haze and was in a state of joy.

Xia Xi still gives Aunt Zhang acupuncture every other day. Aunt Zhang's face looks ruddy day by day, and her spirit is much better.

Zhang Ye is very grateful, and he is very concerned about Xia Xi.

This day to see the fish sold out, Xia Xi in the stall, ready to help in the past, but see the carriage came again.

Xia Xi, without saying a word, leads Qi'er and Hu Zi into the carriage.

Staring at the distant carriage, Mr. Zhang stood for a long time.

……

Inside the villa.

Feng Che is sitting lazily in the wide chair, closing his eyes, I don't know what he is thinking.

Marquis Qin came in. Seeing him like this, he picked his eyebrows. He had a general idea in his heart.

He sat down in the nearest chair and asked, "what do you think lady Xia will do today?"

Rao is that he has eaten all kinds of restaurants in the capital, and he has never eaten all kinds of food cooked by Xia Xi. If there are many kinds of food, it's delicious.

The wind Che eyelid didn't lift, directly accepted him a, "you can ask."

Marquis Qin choked for a while, but he was not annoyed. Instead, he stood up and walked out slowly. "You're right. I'll ask. If it's something rare, I'll try it first."

Feng Che suddenly opened his eyes and watched his back disappear at the door. His body moved with him, but he still held back and sat back in his chair. He had a plan in his heart. If Marquis Qin dares to taste today's food first, he immediately starts to drive people out.

In the kitchen, there was a lot of excitement.

Everyone is fighting for Xia Xi, including the kitchen steward.

Xia Xi is not idle. She makes seasonings and seasonings by herself.

"Lady Xia, what do you mean by hot pot?"

Someone can't help asking.

As a cook for so many years, she has never heard of hotpot.

"It's to immerse the vegetables and meat in the pot. Once cooked, you can eat them."

Xia Xi answers lightly, but everyone in the kitchen falls into silence instantly, and everyone's eyes look at the steward.

Throw the meat and vegetables into the pot and cook them?

The person in charge of the kitchen can't imagine the picture when Fengche sees it.

Since Xia Xi came into the kitchen, his face has been smiling.

Now smile back down, stop the action of washing vegetables, casually shake hands, to Xia Xi in front of, carefully asked, "Xia Niang Zi, this hot pot is not too simple?"

"Well, it's very simple."

Xia Xi is busy making the bottom material and answers casually.

The manager's brows are all wrinkled together, and he doesn't dare to persuade Xia Xi not to do it, so he has to gently remind, "Lady Xia, our master's taste is very tricky, if you don't suit his appetite..."

"Cough..."

The cough came from the door and interrupted the steward.

Kitchen steward suddenly surprised out of a cold sweat, behind the choreographer is not, he did not want this life.

Looking back quickly, he saw that Marquis Qin was standing at the kitchen door. He was a little relieved and quickly welcomed him. "Marquis, what can I do for you?"

Marquis Qin took a look at the kitchen, smelled all kinds of peculiar smell floating out of it, gave up the idea of going in and asked mildly, "is the food ready?"

The steward replied cautiously, "not yet."

"Oh, it's OK. I just happened to pass by. Come and have a look."

With that, he looked inside again, drew back his eyes, and turned to leave.

The steward stood in the same place, a little confused. The kitchen is at the edge of the yard. Where is Marquis Qin going to pass here.

However, did not dare to delay too much, turned into the kitchen, want to persuade Xia Xi a few words, see Xia Xi busy, seems to be very sure, with a long sigh, rolled up his sleeve, and then went to wash vegetables.

The dishes are clean, and the mutton slices have been cut. According to her instructions, the size and thickness are just right.

Xia Xi finished the seasoning, asked people to add charcoal to the hot pot, poured the seasoning into it, added warm water, and said, "take it up!"

In charge of

Everyone in the kitchen

Coincidentally, he touched his neck and stood still for a long time.

"And those dishes!"

Xia Xi then orders.

He said, "you go first, I'll follow you."

The steward breathed out a breath and ordered: "serve."

The dishes and meat were served one by one.

Seeing that they are all alive, marquis Qin cried in his heart that he was not good. He was secretly ready. He was ready to wait for Fengche to go crazy and try to kill Xia Xi, so that he could save people from him.

Feng Che's face is all right, but his eyes are clear.

The maid put the hot pot in the middle of the table.

Xia Xi is holding a tray in her hand, on which is her seasoning.

Enter the door, go to the table, put the seasoning closer to the wind.

When the seasoning is ready, the water in the hot pot boils, and the fragrance comes out.

Xia Xi picked up a bowl and showed them, "the most important thing about this hotpot is the bottom material and seasoning. I've put the bottom material in the pot. Seasoning is what you put in front of you. You can add whatever you like."

Marquis Qin picked up the bowl like her and added some spices he liked.

Fengche is sitting still. The Housekeeper on one side sees it and immediately winks at the servant girl who is waiting on the other side. The servant girl's feet just move. Fengche's light eyes look at it, and the servant girl is scared out of a cold sweat and doesn't dare to move.

Xia Xi didn't care about him. He picked up a few pieces of mutton with chopsticks and put them in the pot. He said, "as long as the meat changes color, it's cooked. You can take it out and eat it."

As he spoke, the mutton changed color. Marquis Qin immediately put a piece of it into his bowl with his chopsticks. According to Xia Xi, he dipped it in seasoning and put it into his mouth,

"Well, it's delicious."

With that, the chopsticks reached into the pot again.

Feng Che frowned and looked at him in disgust.

"It's the same with these dishes. Master Feng and Marquis Qin use them slowly. I'll leave first."

Xia Xi leaves.

Marquis Qin's eating is so fast that he can't stop.

See his chopsticks have been extended to the pot to pick up the head piece, wind Che more dislike, tone is not very good, "you are hungry ghost reincarnation?"

Marquis Qin chewed mutton in his mouth. He did not pay attention to him. Instead, he took another piece of mutton and dipped it in seasoning. He put it into his mouth. "It's delicious. How can it be so delicious?"

Feng Che

He tried to resist the impulse to throw the Lord Qin out, "come on, get another hot pot!"

He doesn't want to share the same pot with Marquis Qin. It's all his saliva. It's so dirty.

The housekeeper answered quickly, turned to go out, and soon came back, forehead is cold sweat, "master, only, only this hot pot."

Originally there were two, but the other one is now in the wing room. Xia Xi is eating happily. The housekeeper doesn't dare to say that.

"I said, if you don't eat any more, I'll finish it."

The wind Che a chilly eyes past.

Marquis Qin didn't care what he did. He still ate meat.

Seeing that he had eaten half of the meat on a large plate, Feng Che frowned and picked up the bowl. He made the seasoning according to his own preference. Then he put the meat in the pot and only put it on his side. The meat was cooked, put it out and put it in his bowl. He slowly dipped it in the seasoning and then put it in his mouth.

……

In the next few days, Fengche was as mad as smoking. He had to eat hot pot every day.

Xia Xi to save things, every time I come here is responsible for the bottom material and seasoning.

The rest of the kitchen was ready.

Fengqin also got the news. Pai Ruyan called Xia Xi out and said, "it's not long before the Spring Festival. I'm going back to Beijing after my first month. If you have anything to do, let the people of the villa take a message to me."

Xia Xi said with a smile, "thank you, madam."

Fengqin took her hand and said, "you saved my life and the child's life. Thank you. But I have one thing to ask you

"Go ahead, ma'am."

Fengqin was a little embarrassed and said for a long time, "can you come to the villa to cook for che'er?"

Finish saying, again hastily way, "you rest assured, I will never lose you on money."

Xia Xi refused with a smile. "My wife also said that it will be new year's day soon. There are many things in my family, and there are small businesses to take care of. I'm really too busy. If it wasn't for the wind villa master to save my brother's life this time, I decided not to come to the villa to cook for him in return."

When she said that, it's not good to talk about Fengqin.

……

Half a month passed, and on the 16th day, Xia Xi naturally didn't come.

It's time for Marquis Qin and Fengqin to go back to Beijing. When they left, they patted Fengche on the shoulder. Since Fengche left Beijing a few years ago, they met very few times. Today, they don't know when they will meet again.

"Take good care of your body. If you need anything, let people talk back to Beijing."

"Well."

The wind Che is urgent, can't hear of light um.

Marquis Qin sighed, patted him on the shoulder and turned to get on the carriage.

Fengqin's eyes were red and swollen. I cried last night. She is not at ease with Fengche, but she has to go back to Beijing.

For fear that she would cry forever, marquis Qin didn't lift the curtain to let them say goodbye. Instead, he told the driver to go back to Beijing.

Fengche stood in the same place, watching the carriage go further and further, until it finally became a small black spot, still standing in the same place.

……

At the market, when the boiled fish is sold out, Xia Xi is cleaning up the stall. A carriage comes slowly and stops in front of the stall.

Mr. Zhang is walking this way. Seeing the carriage, his eyes narrowed and he quickened his pace. Xia Xi told him about going to the villa to cook. Today has passed 15 days. It is reasonable that the villa should not send any more people to come here.

"Big sister! Cherie

The curtain was lifted and a cheerful voice came out of the car. Then a girl jumped out of the carriage.

"Qing'er, why are you here?"

Xia Xi's voice is joyful.

"You said it."

Fine son full of complain, "this all passed how many days, you also don't go home to have a look, parents worry very much."

"I'm busy, aren't I?"

Xia Xi explains with a smile.

"No matter how busy you are, you have to go home to have a look. It's not far away. You can go back and forth with a carriage in one day, but you can't make money."

The smile on Xia Xi's face is more brilliant, "my fault, when I finish these days, I will go home to see my parents."

"That's about the same."

Fine son finish saying, walk to fine son in front.

"Auntie."

Kyle called.

"Well

Qing'er is happy and bends down to pick him up. She turns around twice.

Tiger son envies of looking at, wait for fine son to put down Qi son, also immediately come forward, learn Qi son of appearance also shout, "aunt."

Qing'er is stunned, and looks at Xia Xi suspiciously, "is this

"Huzi, Kiel's uncle."

The smile on her face disappeared. There was no good thing for Yu. She didn't want to pay any attention to it, even for a fool.

Huzi waited eagerly. She didn't mean to hold him in a circle. Her mouth was a little curly.

Xia Xi's hand fell on his head, gently stroked twice, "Qi Er is still small, you have grown up, can't let people hold."

The tiger son stuffy should a, obviously not happy.

Kiel ran to comfort him.

Pillar and Lan'er also stop their work. Xia Xi introduces Qing'er to them. After they say hello, they continue to do their own work.

Xia Xi moved a bench for Qing'er to sit on, "Qing'er, how do you know I'm in the market?"

Qinger didn't sit, "where do I know? I first went to Weijia village to see that you were not at home. After inquiring about the villagers, I found out that you were selling food in the market. "

Then he pulled Xia Xi's sleeve and said, "elder sister, do you tell me that the people of Yu family have bullied you again, and you have to sell food?"
