Chapter 183 Bamboo Rice (6)
Before Xun Zhou could speak, Wen Mingtang coughed lightly, and said to Lin Fei: "Lin Shaoqing, I made some mung bean cakes here, do you want to try it?"
Lin Fei looked at her, met Lin Fei's eyes, Wen Mingtang immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly said: "It's my share, I never take anything from guests!"
The cook also has to eat, so he can also get a share of the meal. Yu Jijiu is not harsh on such a small matter.
Lin Fei, who was about to touch the purse at his waist, nodded "Yes" when he heard the words, and instead of looking at Xunzhou, he walked to the gazebo and sat down, saying "Okay." Then, he looked at Wen Mingtang , and said, "Although I had lunch, I am really hungry after all the way to Lishan."
Wen Mingtang said "um", and before leaving, he glanced at Xun Zhou, whose face was slightly stiff, and motioned him to leave quickly. Xun Zhou opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to her, but in Lin Fei's expression, there was no He opened his mouth, just nodded to her, and whispered: "I will look for sister Mingtang again later."
Wen Mingtang nodded at him, said "I'll save it" and went back to the back kitchen. When she brought her mung bean cake to Lin Fei, Xun Zhou was no longer there.
Lin Fei, who came uninvited, sat calmly in the gazebo, and there was a teacup on the stone table in front of him, as if a passing servant handed it to him to quench his thirst.
If you only look at that face and don't know what Lin Shaoqing looks like in private, he really looks like the handsome and handsome gentleman who came out of the book, making people feel close and friendly at a glance.
It’s no wonder that they appeared here out of nowhere. Instead of asking why they came, these servants even took the initiative to bring him tea to drink.
There is no fear of choking on mung bean cakes when you have tea. Wen Mingtang put the plate of mung bean cakes in front of Lin Fei, sat down and said to Lin Fei: "It's great that he can come here for my father when the tea is cold. There is no need to demand that he be perfect like a saint!"
Lin Fei glanced at Wen Mingtang, said "Yes", took out a clean handkerchief from his bosom, squeezed mung bean cake and ate it.
Compared to A Bing who often eats without washing his hands and has diarrhea several times, this Lin Shaoqing's habit is really good!
Lin Fei took a few mouthfuls of mung bean cakes slowly, and then said lightly: "I know, but he said 'the kindness is as heavy as a mountain' several times, so I just asked."
But looking at the girl's face, it was much calmer than he had imagined.
Wen Mingtang smiled when he heard the words, and said calmly: "It doesn't have to be black and white, it's either one or the other."
"It can't be true that kindness is as heavy as a mountain, and it's true that his own future is important?"
Because the kindness is as heavy as a mountain, even if Wen Xuance is gone, he is still willing to run for it! As for a future...
"My father is very busy. As far as I remember, he seldom cares about my mother and me in the back house." Wen Mingtang said, "But in terms of knowledge, he is indeed a very serious person. Xun Zhou who can make him praise again and again must be There are those who have real talents and real learning. It would be a pity if this real talent and real learning were ruined for no reason. With some real talents and real learning, being able to do some practical things for Da Rong and the people is not in vain for such aptitude! "
Hearing this, Lin Fei glanced at Wen Mingtang, paused, and said, "I've read this article called Xun Zhou."
Because he was also investigating the events of the past in secret, so he also knew about the past when Wang and Xunzhou visited Wen Xuance everywhere in Chang'an City.
"In terms of articles alone, it is more suitable for him to vote for the king." Lin Fei said.
Although he often deals with cases nowadays, Lin Fei's vision is not wrong because he was born in the top three: "Writing is like a man, your father's writing style is more rigorous, Wang He is more unruly, his style is more suitable for Wang He. and."
Wen Mingtang already knew the past of Wang He and Wen Xuance, and naturally knew the "enmity" between the two, so he was able to run for the "old rival" regardless of the previous suspicions. Although Wang He was arrogant and unruly, his heart was indeed broad-minded.
"It's worthy of being a real celebrity!" Wen Mingtang said.
Lin Fei nodded, raised his head, paused for a while on the girl in front of him, then skipped her, and looked behind her.
Wen Mingtang's heart skipped a beat when she saw this reaction, and the next moment, before she could turn around, she heard a cold snort at herself.
"Do you still need to say that you are a real celebrity?" The man snorted coldly, "Don't my king and I know?"
The tone was arrogant, and he had already declared himself, so it was obvious who he was.
Wen Mingtang turned his head and looked at the passerby: not far away, Xun Zhou was following a middle-aged scholar with disheveled hair, looking this way.
Seeing Wen Mingtang turn his head, Wang He turned his head and asked Xun Zhou beside him, "Is this the daughter of that old man Wen Xuance?"
Xunzhou nodded and said, "This is sister Mingtang!"
"Humph!" Wang He snorted again, looked Wen Mingtang up and down seriously, and said, "Why are you doing the cooking? If Wen Xuance, who kept saying 'a gentleman stays away from the kitchen', knew about it, I'm afraid he'd be offended." You must die!"
Wen Mingtang said: "The house has been raided, and there is no money, so I can do whatever I want, let's live on first!"
Wang He: "..."
After his face froze for a moment, Wang He turned his head and asked Xun Zhou again: "Is this really the old man's daughter? Why is it not like the old man's temperament at all?"
Xunzhou said awkwardly: "It's sister Mingtang! As for things like temper... I don't know."
Wang He heard the words, nodded and said: "It's true, my father is a dull person, it is possible for bad bamboos to produce good ones!"
Xun Zhou: "..." The teacher not only scolded his mentor, but also scolded his own father.
But since Wang He said that, he obviously felt that Wen Mingtang was much more pleasing to the eye than Wen Xuance.
"That's right, don't learn from your father's bastard!" Wang He snorted, paused, coughed lightly, and said to Wen Mingtang, "That bamboo rice is pretty good!"
He scooped up all the rice in the two bamboo boats.
Wen Mingtang said: "Mr. likes it!" After a pause, before Wang He could speak, Wen Mingtang asked him again, "What about the side dishes? Are they all to your liking?"
Wang He said "hmm" again, and said, "The cooking skills are good, and I like them all." Having said that, Wang He glanced at Wen Mingtang, and said, "I heard that you are working in the public kitchen of Dali Temple?"
Wen Mingtang nodded.
Wang He said: "It's just right... I will stay in the capital for a while. You are the public kitchen of Dali Temple. It will be easier for me to find you if I have something to do!"
