Luo nine needles

Chapter 217

The thoughts and deliberations of the cooks are confined to the kitchen.

But when a table was full in this cell, Huo Lian, who had never cared about what to eat before, took a second look at the food.

The expressions of the four women were also a little unnatural. The kitchen delivered meals one after another, so that they felt a little endless, and even brought a jug of fruit wine at the end.

"I only said to prepare a meal for one person, but didn't say how much it would cost?" Chun Niang couldn't help asking.

"Perhaps the food for one person in the inner house is of this standard." Xia Niang said.

Qiuniang was a little indifferent: "Our young lady has a lot of food."

No wonder she asked just for one bite?His expression was still not satisfied.

Later, when they fed, they didn't need to persuade them at all. The young lady ate all the food delivered seriously.

During the discussion, Huo Lian came, and the four of them were immediately relieved. It turned out that the governor wanted to come to have dinner together, but they were a little surprised, thinking that the governor would accompany Miss Wanwan.

"What are you thinking?" Dongniang whispered, "The governor is also a man."

Men naturally like the new and dislike the old. With a new man, the old man will of course have to stay behind.

They are no strangers to serving the two of them. It was the same when Miss Wanwan first arrived. The four selected two to enter the cell, and the other two stood outside.

"Miss, let's have a sip of soup first." Chun Niang said with a smile, holding the soup bowl.

Qixing nodded, and opened her mouth to drink the soup she brought.

Qiuniang gently wiped the corners of her mouth.

Chunniang then picked up the dishes on the table and fed them to her bit by bit.

He didn't grit his teeth, he didn't sneer and scold, he didn't spit, and he didn't struggle and kick over the table.

If they didn't need someone to feed them, both Chunniang and Qiuniang would think this was a normal eating scene.

Huo Lian, who was sitting across from her, didn't care at all about her reaction, and just lowered her head to eat by herself.

However, unlike in the past, he didn't just eat the plate in front of him.

Because Qixing always wanted to eat different dishes, Chunniang also took vegetables from his plate, and because she was also worried that the governor would not have enough to eat, Qiuniang changed other dishes from time to time.

Although the two ate separately and did not communicate during the whole process, Qixing didn't stop, and Huo Lian didn't stop until Qixing drank a glass of fruit wine and said that he was full.

There was also a glass of fruit wine in front of Huo Lian, and when Qiuniang was pouring wine for Qixing, she also poured a glass for him.

Huo Lian looked at the fruit wine, picked it up and drank it down.

Here, Dongniang Xianiang came in and removed the dining table, Chunniang Qiuniang waited on the two of them to wash their mouths and wipe their hands before retreating.

……

……

"My darling."

The cooks in the kitchen looked at the bowls and dishes sent back, all showing surprised expressions.

"Eat it all."

They couldn't help but look back to the other side.

Miss Wanwan's food has been withdrawn long ago, as before, it was almost untouched, and a few servants are sorting out and distributing to the servants.

"Where is the governor?" said a cook, "The governor eats a lot."

This was immediately refuted by the maid over there: "The governor used to only eat one dish and one bowl of rice."

That's right, the cooks gathered around the empty dishes and looked again, so it can only be said that this young lady is quite edible.

In this case, I can eat it, don't you mean, willingly?
Then there's no need to be in jail.

If you can still eat like this without obeying the governor, what kind of mentality should you have?
The cooks were full of curiosity.

"No matter what the mentality is." A cook looked at an empty bowl and said happily, "at least it shows that she likes our craft."

Even if the mentality is good, if the food is not palatable, it is impossible to eat so clean.

Huo Lian recruited the best cooks in the city to please the beauties, but it was a pity that when they came to Huo's house, there were only two masters in the inner house, a man and a woman, and the two of them were not interested in eating and drinking. I always feel like I'm paying for nothing.

Now there's another one, and this lady seems interested in eating and drinking.

"Okay, we can't let this young lady look down on us." A cook rolled up her sleeves, "I'll come and eat these at home, and I'll get new ones tomorrow."

The kitchen was brightly lit at night, and it was a sleepless scene. In the cell, Qixing had already been served and washed.

After the four women retreated, Huo Lian came in again. He also washed and changed into pajamas.

Qixing's eyes turned around on him, she recognized this one, and Huo Lian came out of the inner house wearing this one when she came to Duchasi.

"As I said, I will personally guard you." Huo Lian said, sitting down beside the bed, pulled out a piece of rope from Qixing's body, and slowly wrapped it around her arm.

Qixing said: "If I say I won't run away, do you believe it?"

Huo Lian glanced at her and said nothing.

"You've already discovered my intentions, and you've prepared yourself well." Seven Star continued, "Besides, if you're like me in full view, I will definitely be noticed by everyone, and I can't do things arbitrarily for the sake of the Mo Sect."

She thought about it and seemed to have made up her mind.

"I will leave the capital."

Huo Lian wrapped her entire arm around her, then lay down and pressed her arm tightly together, still not speaking.

Qixing looked at him sideways on the pillow and continued: "I want to get rid of Momen's crimes, you are the most important link, after all you know more than me, if you refuse to cooperate or testify, I will also no solution anymore."

Until hearing this, Huo Lian let out a laugh.

"I can tell you're sincere." He said, also looking sideways at her, "but I don't believe it. I'm not interested in what other people do. I'd rather do it myself."

He raised his arm, and Qixing's arm tied to him was also raised at the same time.

He shook their arms.

"What I have to do is very simple, just watch you."

The two looked at each other on the pillow for a moment.

Huo Lian withdrew her gaze first, put down the arms of the two, and threw the quilt with the other hand, and the wide and thick quilt covered them.

"Go to sleep," he said, closing his eyes.

Qixing didn't look away, and seemed to think of something: "There is one more thing."

Shouldn't she stop talking to him in this situation?Why can I finish talking about one thing, but I was rejected, and I can continue to talk?Did she feel that she was imprisoned by him?Thought you were a guest?Huo Lian closed her eyes and said nothing.

"I want to tell the Momen Congregation about the current situation." Qi Xing didn't care that he ignored it, the two of them were so close, she could clearly detect whether he was asleep or not, so she just continued, "Avoid Everyone is doing irrational things."

Huo Lian closed her eyes and said, "It's not rational, why? Are you coming to attack me, Duchasi?"

"You don't need them to attack Duchasi, I am enough." Qixing said, shaking himself in the quilt, which is also Huo Lian's arm, "Do you think I can't kill you if you tie me up?"

Huo Lian opened her eyes again and looked at her: "I have seen Miss Qixing's sincerity, but unless you kill me, you won't be able to get out of this cell."

"Killing you won't solve my problem, I won't kill you." Qixing said, "You write a letter for me and give it to my people."

Having said that, he paused again and thought about it.

"Two."

Huo Lian frowned slightly: "How many letters?"

This was a promise, Qixing smiled and said, "Two letters, two letters are enough."

Huo Lian closed her eyes and stopped talking, as if she had fallen asleep.

Qixing didn't speak any more, and then closed his eyes.

The last bit of candle was burnt out, and the two people lying side by side on the bed were covered in darkness, like a very common couple.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Lian opened his eyes again, and the steady breathing rhythm of the woman next to his ear told him that she had fallen asleep.

She fell asleep faster than him.

This woman is really... completely different from Wan Wan back then, things that he was used to, on the contrary, made him not used to them.

He turned his head slightly, and saw her face lying on her back in the dark night, like a jade carving.
