Chapter 1571 Why are you here?
After receiving the notice from the Ministry of War, local officials in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Nanzhili and other places who suffered from the Japanese invasion of Shangyu immediately arranged their work in the office, rushing to work or riding in carriages all the way. The servants rushed to Yingtian, and after reporting to the Ministry of War, they were either placed in the guest room of the Ministry of War, or placed in the inn outside the Ministry of War, waiting for the arrival of the imperial envoy.
The officials in Yingtian City also put down their work and waited for the imperial envoy to arrive at any time.
As a result, a group of officials saw no sign of the imperial envoy from the time of sunrise in the morning until the sunset in the evening, and no notification was received. When the curfew was about to come, three horses rode into Yingtian with their whips whipped all the way, and finally, Brought back the latest news about the imperial envoy that everyone had been waiting for.
The imperial envoy is exhausted from traveling and traveling all the way. He has to rest in Yangzhou for one night and then set off to Yingtian tomorrow. He is expected to arrive in Yingtian tomorrow afternoon.
Soon, the news was notified by the Ministry of War to all yamen, including the yamen of the Prosecution and Prosecution Commission.
After learning that the imperial envoy would not arrive until tomorrow afternoon, Zhang Zhengtai told Zhu Ping'an and others that they did not have to wait any longer and went back to their respective homes. They would bathe and change clothes early tomorrow morning, and then go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War together in the afternoon to await the imperial envoy's arrival.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Zhengtai and others, Zhu Ping'an walked slowly towards the backyard of the Yamen, the yard that was originally allocated to him.
"Uncle~~My uncle is back~~The food has been prepared. I can eat it after entering the house and washing my hands."
Little Ya Nang Hua'er saw Zhu from a distance Ping An, he ran all the way to meet him, as happy as picking up gold.
If she had a tail at this moment, she could wag it.
"Hmph"
The demon girl Ruonan on the side was in sharp contrast. She snorted at Zhu Pingan as if she owed her hundreds of taels of silver.
"Huh?!" Zhu Ping'an was surprised when he saw Hua'er and the demon Ruonan, "Why are you here?"
I was really surprised. I didn't expect Hua'er and the demon Ruonan. He actually appeared in the Yamen of the Prosecution Office.
"What's the matter, nerd, we came here uninvited and hindered your pursuit of beauty and beauty?!" The enchantress Ruonan sneered and asked as if her eyes were not eyes and her nose was not a nose.
Looking for your sister, stealing your sister, in this witch’s mind, are all scholars such unsightly guys?
Zhu Ping’an tugged at the corner of his mouth speechlessly and teased: “ Did you take the gunpowder? Or are relatives here?!"
"Bah, shameless disciple! !" The demon girl Ruonan spat at Zhu Ping'an with a red face.
"Hey, uncle, we will go to the Zhejiang Army barracks today to deliver chicken soup and cakes to you. Brother Dachui told us. If the man says, uncle, if you come to Yingtian, you will definitely come to punish and inspect the Si Yamen. We So I came here. Brother Chai, the gatekeeper at the Yamen, recognized him. My uncle is very proud of us. He took the initiative to invite us in before we said anything, so we came here to wait for our uncle. He must be suffering in the military camp. My maid has been cooking delicious food for my uncle these days. Serve my uncle well.”
Baozi's little maid Hua'er explained with a smile, as proud as a dog that had picked up a meat bone.
So that’s it, Zhu Pingan understood.
"Also, uncle, your guess is really accurate. Ruonan is really the one who came today." Hua'er said with admiration again. Halfway through her words, she was covered by the demon Ruonan. Mouthed.
After the demon girl Ruonan covered Hua'er's mouth, she glared at Zhu Pingan with a perverted expression.
Ahem, it turns out that relatives are really here. I just said casually, what a coincidence. Zhu Pingan was speechless.
"Uncle, we have cooked ginseng chicken soup, as well as prawns with hibiscus, cold deer liver, garlic abalone, splendid lion's head, bamboo shoots and bracken, steamed eggplant with sugar, mung bean sprouts in vinegar, and tofu stewed with white rice. Oh, yes. There are also freshly cooked mutton buns. Uncle, Ruonan’s mixed buns The stuffing is so delicious."
The little maid Hua'er stepped forward and reported the name of the dish to Zhu Ping'an with her fingers. Her baby-fat smiling face was filled with the expression of taking credit and waiting for praise. Finally, I didn’t forget to take some credit for helping the witch Ruonan.
In fact, Zhu Pingan originally wanted to send Hua'er and the demon Ruonan away. He is here to wait for the imperial envoys and listen to the imperial edict, not to enjoy the vacation. It is inappropriate for you to come and serve.
However, everyone has already arrived, and they have cooked such a sumptuous meal for themselves. Especially when they see Hua'er's expectant eyes, what will Zhu Ping'an say when he wants to send them away? I can't say anything anymore.
That’s all, it only takes a day or two. When the time comes for him to return to the military camp, Hua'er and the others will also return to Peach Blossom Collection.
"Wow, you have made so many delicious dishes. Just hearing the name makes me want to eat them. Hua'er has worked hard, and Ruonan and Miss Ruonan have worked hard too." Zhu Ping'an smiled and praised, expressing his gratitude to Hua'er and Ruonan.
Hearing this, Hua'er immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, as if she had received the highest reward in the world.
"I couldn't bear to see the painting, so I helped him. Don't be sentimental." The demon girl Ruonan snorted, turned around and walked into the yard, leaving Zhu Ping'an behind.
Why am I being so sentimental? You are obviously overthinking it yourself, okay? Zhu Pingan smiled silently.
"Brother, come in quickly, the food won't taste good when it's cold," Hua'er urged in a sweet voice.
"Okay, let me try it to see how delicious it is, and see if your craftsmanship has improved, Hua'er." Zhu Pingan walked into the yard with a smile.
"My uncle, my craftsmanship has improved a lot now. I can't go to the camp to serve my uncle, so I pester Ruonan every day in the yard to teach me how to cook. I cook at least a dozen dishes every day, and I can't eat them. Just give it to the neighbors around you. Neighbors all praise that my cooking is a hundred times better than the restaurants in town."
Hua'er puffed up her chest with pride, and it was hard for Zhu Ping'an not to notice. Don't look at anything inappropriate, don't do anything inappropriate. Look, Zhu Pingan recited silently twice and turned his head.
“Hmph!”
At this moment, the demon girl Ruonan heard a cold snort not far away. Zhu Pingan raised his head and looked at the girl Ruonan. The demon girl Ruonan gave Zhu Pingan a hard look. , snorted, "Nerd, aren't you afraid of needle eyes?!"
Aren't you walking in front? Could it be that there are eyes behind you, or are you just staring at me?
Zhu Pingan was speechless.
After entering the house, Hua'er diligently brought a washbasin filled with warm water, with a towel on her shoulders, and served Zhu Ping'an to clean his hands and wash his face.
"Hua'er, he is a big man, and he is not helpless, so how can he serve him like this?"
The enchantress Ruonan can't stand it, well, she has never been able to stand it. .
"This is what I should do." Hua'er said in a tone that took it for granted and felt that the demon Ruonan was meddling in other people's business.
The Demon Girl Ruonan
"Uncle, try it quickly and see if it tastes good." After serving Zhu Pingan, he washed his hands and washed his face, Hua'er diligently picked up Zhu Pingan's food and waited for the commendation.
"Well, it's delicious, not bad. The craftsmanship has really improved." Zhu Pingan took a bite and gave it a thumbs up without hesitation.
Suddenly, Hua'er was extremely satisfied. (End of chapter)
