Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 727

"it is finally over!"

On this day, Chen Nian came to the shed, but there was no one there.

Only the familiar stench still lingered in the air. The hard work during this period made Chen Nian feel that his whole body was going to be marinated, but he usually didn't care about this when he was busy.

"Yeah, it's finally over. Many people died this time." Sun Yunrou appeared behind him at some point, and said with a sigh, "I've worked hard for you these days. I see you busy every day. During the period when you were infected with the plague, I even felt that you might not be able to survive this test, and you have passed it several times, and it would have been a long time ago if you were an ordinary person."

Chen Nian smiled when he heard this: "Maybe it's because I'm still young and strong."

"Yeah, I haven't seen anyone with your physique. Now they all say that you are a fairy descended from the earth. Otherwise, how could it be possible for someone to have suffered so many plagues and still act as if nothing happened?"

"Immortals come down to earth?" Chen Nian shook his head, "How can there be any immortals in this world? If there are immortals, how can the life of the common people be so miserable?"

"That's right." Sun Yunrou actually agrees with what Chen Nian said. Although there are gods to worship in their profession, Sun Yunrou also feels that those are just people's psychological comfort, or a certain kind of belief.

Because their job is to snatch people back from the hands of the king of hell. If there are gods, aren't they against the gods?
"Then what are you going to do next?"

Chen Nian let out a long sigh of relief when he heard the words, and then stretched his waist: "The next step is of course to sleep, and then go home to see my parents."

Then Chen Nian went back to the house to take off all his clothes and had a good sleep.

It was already afternoon when he woke up.

Originally, he planned to boil some hot water for a bath and then change into clean clothes, but he didn't expect that when he arrived at the kitchen, he saw the elder brother sitting in front of the stove with a small stool, adding firewood to it.

"woke up?"

"Hmm." Chen Nian pointed to the stove, "Brother, is there someone who needs to wash up? Call me when you're done using it up, and I'm going to boil some water to wash it up."

Unexpectedly, the elder brother raised his head and looked at Chen Nian and said with a smile: "This is the water that Ms. Sun told me to boil for you, and it's ready now. I'll bring it to your room for you later, and clean it up before you go home." Yes, don't take the dirty stuff home."

"Miss Sun told you?"

"That's right, our Miss Sun knows that you like to be clean, and shopkeeper Sun and my master also agree with your statements. Later, we will all have to wash and change the clothes and bedding we are wearing."

"Thank you."

Chen Nian said.

But in the end, he was not ashamed to ask his elder brother to help him bring the water back, so he ran twice to get the hot water back into the house, and began to scrub his body.

"It's still inconvenient to take a bath in ancient times. Anyway, this plague is over. When I go back, I can find a carpenter to get a big tub, and then I can wash in it directly." Chen Nian thought in his heart.

However, after taking a bath, Chen Nian didn't go home immediately, he planned to isolate here for a while.

Don't say that parents and Xiaotao didn't get infected when the plague was prevalent, on the contrary, after the plague ended, they brought the bacteria back and infected them.

However, during the past few days, Chen Nian has not been idle, cooking for everyone in Huichun Hall every day, and his cooking skills have also been unanimously recognized by everyone.

So much so that Chen Nian bid farewell to everyone on the sixth night and said that he would go home tomorrow morning, and everyone was still a little bit reluctant.

Shopkeeper Sun and the old doctor all hoped that Chen Nian could stay in Huichun Hall, while Sun Yunrou simply wanted Chen Nian to stay by his side, as for the brothers below, they only thought that Chen Nian's cooking was delicious.

If Chen Nian is gone, they will have to eat the food made by the old cook again. The food made by the old cook in Huichun Hall cannot be said to be bad, mainly because they are getting old, so they don’t perform well. Too stable, sometimes the rice is salty, sometimes it is bland.

But Chen Nian still has to leave after all.

In this way, Chen Nian finally stayed here for one night and cooked a large table of meals. Firstly, it was to celebrate the end of the epidemic, and secondly, shopkeeper Sun wanted to thank everyone for their hard work during this time.

Moreover, shopkeeper Sun and the old Langzhong also drank some wine rarely, and Sun Yunrou also drank some, his face was flushed.

But they were alright, they just got dizzy from drinking, but those senior brothers drank so badly one by one, finally Chen Nian sent them back to the house one by one.

"Oh, these brats, usually they are not allowed to drink because they are afraid that they will make mistakes, but finally let them drink once and then drink like this again." The old man looked at the crowd dissatisfied and said.

"Forget it, let them relax after the plague has finally passed. They have been suppressed for too long before." Sun Ban'an said.

"Yes, master, they worked very hard before, let them relax this time, and be strict with them in the future." Chen Nian also echoed.

"Okay, then you all go back to rest early."

Afterwards, Sun Ban'an and the old doctor also went back to the house to rest.

But at this time, Chen Nian realized that besides himself, Sun Yunrou hadn't gone back yet, and even though Sun Yunrou had only drank a bowl, she was a little hot at the moment, her whole body was a little red when she was sitting there, and her eyes were staring straight at him. look at yourself.

Chen Nian sighed: "Miss Sun, you should go back to your room and rest early."

But after he finished speaking, he didn't see any movement from the other party.

"Did you drink too much?" Chen Nian asked again.

"I didn't drink too much." Sun Yunrou said with a big tongue.

"Then can you walk back by yourself now?"

As a result, Sun Yunrou stopped talking.

"Then I'll take you back?" Chen Nian sighed and asked.

"Okay." He finally nodded again this time.

There was no other way, Chen Nian had no choice but to support the other party and sent him back to the room, but after putting the other party on the bed, Chen Nian quickly got away: "Then Miss Sun rests first, I have to go back too."

After finishing speaking, before Sun Yunrou could react, he left in a hurry, and helped Sun Yunrou close the door before leaving.

Chen Nian doesn't want to stay here for too long.

As a result, as soon as he came out, he ran into the old doctor who was about to go back to the room after going to the bathroom.

"Why did you run back? Didn't Yunrou drink too much? Why didn't you take care of her there?"

Chen Nian looked at the old Langzhong who had other meanings, and thought that this is not your daughter, you are here to stir up trouble, so he sighed and said: "Oh, she is interested in me, so I can't delay her, that is today I drank too much at night, so I sent her back, but if she stayed there for a long time, it would definitely be shameful. After all, at her age, and at my age, some people can talk but not listen, and they crush people to death with their tongues.

If there is any misunderstanding, I can't clear it up even if I jump into the river, I have to take care of this! "

As he spoke, he patted his face.

"Okay, at first I wanted to take this opportunity to get things done for the two of you, but since you've made up your mind, we won't force you anymore." The old man clapped his hands as he spoke. Aged shoulders, and gone.

Chen Nian returned to the room, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Just fell asleep until morning.

The sky had just turned dull blue, and Chen Nian had already come to the kitchen to cook breakfast for everyone, and this was also the last meal he would cook for everyone.

However, Huichuntang’s breakfast is relatively simple, a pot of rice soup with pickles.

While eating breakfast, Sun Yunrou looked at Chen Nian with a bit of resentment in his eyes.

Chen Nian just pretended not to see it.

After breakfast, Chen Nian was about to leave, and everyone in Huichun Hall saw him off together.

"Oh, everyone, don't give them away. My house is not far away, and I will come over every day in the future. It seems like you have made me travel far away." Chen Nian said helplessly.

"Hahaha, we have nothing to do anyway."

At this time they had already reached the door, and Chen Nian saw many people outside Huichun Hall at a glance: "Do you think someone came to the door here? There are so many people, you are busy enough."

But as soon as his words fell, the people outside began to speak loudly.

"We guys are able to stand here alive today thanks to all the genius doctors in Huichun Hall. We came here today to thank you all!"

After finishing speaking, Li Zheng, the leader, waved his hand and directly led the people behind him to kneel and kowtow.

"I can't, I can't."

Shopkeeper Sun hurriedly ran forward to support, and managed to help everyone up.

Then everyone thanked Huichun Hall again.

Chen Nian deliberately crossed his body when everyone knelt down, and didn't accept their kneeling directly, mainly because he was not used to it.

Just as shopkeeper Sun helped the common people up and accepted everyone's thanks, Chen Nian walked around from the side and prepared to go home.

But as soon as he got down the steps, Li Zheng called Chen Nian to stop him.

"Chen Nian! Are you going home?"

Chen Nian who was stopped immediately stood at attention, stood on the spot and turned his head with a smile: "Yes."

"That's just right, we big guys have also been taken care of by you, and we will send you back, just to make Song Laosan happy too!"

"No need, I just did some insignificant things." Chen Nian waved his hands quickly, feeling that these folks were too enthusiastic, and the enthusiasm made him a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay, it's okay." After Lizheng finished speaking, he cupped his hands towards Shopkeeper Sun, "Treasurer Sun, I will repay the favor of Huichuntang in the future, and now we want to send Chen Nian home."

"Go." Sun Ban'an said.

Afterwards, many people gathered around Chen Nian and returned home, causing passers-by to look sideways, but the passers-by also showed respect in their eyes after seeing Chen Nian.

They have also heard about the things that Chen Nian did in the plague, and asked themselves, they must not be able to do what Chen Nian did. Ordinary people can't hide when they encounter the plague, so how can they take the initiative to get together? Where do most patients go?
But Chen Nian not only went away, but also helped those patients to poop and urinate without complaining, and even contracted the plague several times during this period.

"Good job!"

"Good man rewarded!"

Those passers-by shouted at Chen Nian loudly one by one.

Others who had nothing to do followed behind these common people.

In this way, Chen Nian went all the way back home and knocked on the door.

But he turned his head and saw that those people hadn't left yet.

"Everyone go back, I'm home."

"We'll watch you go in!" Everyone said in unison.

Chen Nian had no choice but to turn around and knock on the door again.

Not long after, a voice came from inside: "Is Brother Chen Nian back?"

"That's right, it's me, Xiaotao, open the door quickly."

Chen Nian said quickly.

When the door opened with a creak, Chen Nian stepped over the threshold and entered the courtyard.

"I'm coming in, everyone go back quickly." He turned his head and said again.

But at this moment, those people who had been taken care of by Chen Nian looked at Chen Nian's smile, which was still the same as that in the greenhouse at that time, and couldn't help but feel a sore nose.

As someone knelt down with a plop, everyone else knelt down in unison.

"The grace of saving my life is unforgettable!"

"You are our benefactor. If your family needs anything in the future, just say it, I, Zhang San, will definitely come to help!"

This scene shocked Song San and Xu Erni who came after them. If they hadn't seen Chen Nian standing at the door intact, they would have thought that something had happened to Chen Nian, and these people would have come to their door crying up.

"Folks, you can't help it. You are all my elders. Get up quickly." Chen Nian said.

But those folks recalled the scenes in the greenhouse at this moment, and they were full of gratitude for Chen Nian.

How can I just get up like this, just kowtow with red eyes.

Chen Nianjian really had no choice but to repeat the old tricks.

He put his burden on the ground, then knelt down on his knees with a plop, and kowtowed to the common people outside.

They knocked one, and Chen Nian followed suit.

Indeed, as Chen Nian said earlier, most of these people are Chen Nian's elders, how can Chen Nian let them kowtow to him?what does that look like
It was originally a serious and touching scene, but after Chen Nian made such a scene, it suddenly became joyful again.

Following the burst of laughter in the crowd, the others gradually started laughing too. Afterwards, those ordinary people who wanted to thank Chen Nian also felt that it was inappropriate for them to kowtow while laughing, so they all stood up one after another.

In this way, Chen Nian greeted everyone at the door, and everyone praised Chen Nian in front of Song San, and then went home with the thanks of Song San and Xu Erni.

After returning home, Chen Nian told his parents what he had done during this period of time, but Chen Nian didn’t say anything about those painful nights, nor did he say how bad the environment in the greenhouse was. He just picked up a good place and said explain.

But just after Chen Nian finished speaking, Xiao Tao raised her head excitedly.

"Brother Chen Nian, you are home, so can Xiaotao go home too? Father and mother are also waiting for Xiaotao."

As soon as Xiaotao said this, the three of them fell silent for an instant.

Because of that news, none of them told Xiaotao.

But things cannot be hidden after all. Before, the plague could be used as an excuse, but now the plague is over.

"Xiao Tao, your parents have passed away..."
