After a slight pause, she added: "I have to go back to the restaurant to get the recruitment notice first."

Yan Bojian smiled: "It's a trivial matter."

This morning, Yan Funing woke up before dawn.

Lying on the bed, it was difficult to fall back asleep, so she simply cut a large piece of rice paper into the size of a book page and wrote a stack of recruitment notices.

It would depend on the time. The chefs participating in the imperial chef selection would probably leave the palace, so she had to distribute the notice in time.

The car returned to the restaurant from Yan's house.

Yan Funing grabbed the notice on the counter and hurried back to the car.

Yan Bojian read what she had written and smiled: "Are you going to send them one by one?"

"Well, I've written down the address clearly, and those who are interested will come to apply."

"That's a way." Yan Bojian nodded and ordered out of the car door, "Go to the side palace door."

"Side palace gate?"

"The servants who serve in the palace are all selected from the same palace gate. That palace gate is called the side palace gate, but it is actually the back door."

Yan Funing suddenly said: "Thank you very much."

When they arrived, there was already a restaurant waiting for people at the entrance of the palace.

“Hire a chef with a high salary!”

"Fu Feng Restaurant is hiring a chef!"

"Food and lodging are included, come and see!"

The scene was extremely heated.

Yan Funing gave part of the notice to Caiyu, and the master and servant squeezed into the crowd to distribute it.

Yan Bojian saw that the others were shouting loudly, but they were silent, and he didn't know if it had any effect. Then he went over and snatched the notice from Yan Funing's hand, took some of it himself, and ordered his driver to distribute it together.

Fu Jiang, who was passing by here, saw this and went to the Hanlin Academy to find Fu Ciyi.

"Sir, I have met the young lady today." Fu Jiang lowered his voice to prevent others from overhearing.

Fu Ciyi pinched his pen and paused: "Where?"

"At the side palace gate, she is probably busy recruiting chefs for the restaurant. There are also people coming to grab people from the nearby restaurants. The location of the young lady's restaurant is not good and it has not yet opened. Probably no one wants to go there."

Fu Ciyi continued to deal with the documents in hand: "Go and pass a message to me. Tell her that if she wants to see me, I can help her with the job of hiring a chef."

Fu Jiang took the order and left.

Who would have thought that when he went to the side palace gate, he could no longer find Yan Funing.

Then he rushed to the Dongsan Street restaurant.

There was a long queue outside the restaurant, which had not yet opened.

He randomly picked up someone and asked, "What are you doing?"

"The big restaurants nearby are looking for chefs, and they all have to participate in the Royal Chef Competition. Among us, only this new restaurant wants to be ranked lower. No, we are all here."

The man in front of this person turned around and pointed at the recruitment notice in his hand: "The monthly salary is five taels per month, which is very high. You must know that the average new imperial chef only has four taels. After two years of hard work, after passing the assessment To be promoted.”

Someone from behind looked over and said, "We always have to struggle when we come to the capital, and this new restaurant is an opportunity."

Fu Jiang had no choice but to go back.

My young master is really in trouble when he wants to see the young lady again, and he can't even do anything to help her.

He slandered all the way and returned to the Hanlin Academy to report the truth to Fu Ciyi.

Fu Ciyi heard the sound and said nothing.
-
On this day, Yan Funing selected more than 20 people from the applicants to prepare for the selection of basic cooking skills the next day.

Working from day to night, exhausted, she washed and bathed in the clean room.

After washing and returning to the room, what she saw in front of her made her stunned.

Fu Ciyi sat at the table and calmly took a sip of tea from her tea cup.

"You, what are you doing here? Do you believe I called someone?"

His voice was panicked, even with a hint of fear.

She closed her clothes with both hands and quietly moved back, preparing to call Caiyu.

Who would have thought that someone seemed to see her intention and said calmly: "Caiyu has been knocked unconscious by my palm, who are you calling?"

As for the guys, they should all go home.

Even the foreign cooks who came to apply for the job all returned to the inn where they were temporarily staying. It can be said that at this moment, the only people in the front yard of the restaurant were Liu Song and He, and the only people in the back yard were her and Caiyu who had passed out on the ground outside the door.

Of course, there is him.

"If you call me uncle and aunt of the Liu family..."

He moved his fingers, and his meaning was very clear. If she dared to shout, he would still chop her.

Yan Funing swallowed in panic: "What do you want?"

The man's slender and powerful fingertips slowly rubbed the rim of the lamp, his deep auspicious eyes raised, and he stared at her coldly.

"Why didn't you keep your promise?"

Tone and temperament.

"Why not keep the promise?" She was puzzled.

The man frowned: "Who promised me not to divorce in advance?"

Yan Funing suddenly smiled: "What can I do in the situation at that time? I can't depreciate myself as a concubine."

For some reason, seeing her smile, he felt his heart skip a beat. He stood up and walked to her, softening his tone and saying, "I will not marry Cai Muchi. You come back with me."

Yan Funing shook her head: "I can't go back, we have nothing to do with each other anymore."

"My mother is sad and weeps all day long. Her eyes are not good and she cannot shed tears. Can you bear to have her like this?"

"Are you going to give up on giving Bei Mo an acupuncture halfway?"

"Before, you also said that you would help Nan Yao heal her leg..."

Yan Funing raised her head, met his gaze, and interrupted him: "Don't kidnap me like this. I have nothing to do with you, and I have nothing to do with them."

The man said coldly: "You are a cruel woman."

"Whatever you say, even if the two years expires, the problems we will face at that time will be the same." Yan Funing turned around and stopped looking at him, "How about you and I, your career is very important."

The last sentence made Master Ciyi feel a little warm in his heart.

"You still care about me, right?"

He pinched her shoulders and turned her around.

"No, I don't care about you."

The voice was soft and choked with sobs.

Two lines of clear tears fell down Hibiscus's face.

She said she didn't care, which made him inexplicably irritable, and even the words she asked were filled with sinister coldness: "Then why are you crying?"

Yan Funing frowned: "You pinched me."

"I want to ask, is your kindness to me over the past year or so all false?"

Fu Ciyi pinched her shoulders restrainedly, for fear of accidentally crushing her shoulder bones.

She looked fearlessly at his deep brows and raised her voice a notch higher: "Yes!"

"very good."

Fu Ciyi sneered and let her go.

She had been looking forward to reconciliation, but now they have reconciled in advance, which fulfilled her wish.

The room fell silent.

After a while, he put a bunch of rice dumplings of different flavors on the side table on the table in the room.

"I've tried every flavor. It tastes very good. I'll give it to you to try."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I didn't want to come, and I didn't want to bring these rice dumplings. Beimo said you haven't eaten them yet."

After that, he opened the door, jumped onto the roof of the front yard, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

The night wind in May was warm and made Fu Ciyi irritable.

He originally thought that if she still refused to give in at the end of the two years, he would let her go.

But at this moment, he changed his mind.

Yan Funing, your hypocrisy has offended me!
You have to pay for this offense with your whole life! (End of chapter)
