pretty lady in disguise

Chapter 101

Hold it in your hand for fear of losing it and hold it in your mouth for fear of melting. The baby sister is married. No one will prepare breakfast for him early, and no one will give him thousands of instructions before he goes out, and no one will wait for him when he returns from riding a horse. Bringing him a cup of hot tea, the two days before his sister returned home, Cheng Yang had a particularly unpleasant time.

Why, his biological sister, so gentle and kind, why did she give it to someone else?

When Ah Yu returned to the door three times, he looked at Zhan Huaichun with a happy face, and then at himself. Cheng Yang was furious, and dragged Zhan Huaichun to drink several pots of wine. Unfortunately, Zhan Huaichun was better at kung fu than him and could hold a lot of alcohol. Drunk, he dragged Ayu away before dusk, and did not stay overnight in Qianhu Mansion as Cheng Yang wished.

Cheng Yang saw that Zhan Huaichun was getting more and more distasteful, so he almost burned incense and prayed to Buddha every day, hoping that his sister would return to her mother's house several times.

But after his sister asked him to marry a wife quickly three times in a row, Cheng Yang thought about it carefully, and suddenly he didn't want his sister to come back.

Does he not want to marry a wife?
Think about it, he has suffered so much outside to earn a hereditary family. Wouldn't he be sorry for those eight years of homelessness if he didn't have a son?

Cheng Yang thinks he doesn't have too many demands on women, but who are those people outside introducing him to?

They are all delicate young ladies, who speak softly, and shed tears when the tone is louder!The only one Cheng Yang could bear and was willing to coax softly was his younger sister Ayu. He didn't have that patience for the women beside him.Besides, even though he became a fifth rank thousand householder, after all, he was born in the countryside, he was a reckless man, and he didn't know a lot of Chinese characters. The only thing that could be admired by those young ladies was his official position and his skin.

Cheng Yang is self-aware, when someone wants to introduce an official girl to him, he won't go at all.

He wants to find someone who is pleasing to the eye, just from an ordinary background, he can accept his appearance without being too ugly, the key is to have a big buttocks, which is easy to bear.He is already 26, so he doesn't have so much time to waste, his daughter-in-law is only second, and being able to have a son is the most important thing.

But he always stays in the guard, and he can only see the girls on the street on the way back to the county, and he doesn't seem to find any pleasing to the eye.

When he got home, the housekeeper said that the girl handed over the post and would come over tomorrow. Cheng Yang instinctively wanted to slip away, but thinking about his niece who was about to leave just now, he endured it.

The next day, Cheng Yang sent the three members of A Yu's family away. Cheng Yang gritted his teeth and decided that it would be better not to see each other in the future. In the past, his sister only urged him to marry a wife quickly, but now instead, he urged him to marry a wife quickly and give her a nephew...

Cheng Yang stayed in the guard for a longer time. Before A Yu got married, he left early and returned late, but now he goes back every few days. When he goes back, he only goes to the Zhanfu to see his niece, and then flees back to the guard.

The guards are full of big pots of rice, and he, a thousand households, did not make a special case.

When Cheng Yang came back from training that day, he went to the inner room to clean it, and when he came out, there was already lunch on the table.

Three flatbreads, two dishes of meat dishes, and one soup.

Others said that he doesn't put on airs, it's not that Cheng Yang doesn't want to put on airs, it's just that he likes to eat what the villagers like to eat.Besides, is he not putting on airs?Look at this cake made of white flour, these two dishes of stir-fried dishes with more meat and less vegetables, can ordinary people afford it?There is soup to drink after eating!
Satisfied, Cheng Yang sat down and poured a cup of wine with his head raised, before picking up the chopsticks to pick up the meat.

After taking this bite, Cheng Yang was stunned, took another bite, then put down his chopsticks, and curiously asked Zeng Weiwei who was also eating over there: "Is Lao Li having a happy event today? The food is even better than before." Zeng The guards were his former subordinates, the two were from the same hometown, and they were born and died together during the years of fighting outside, and their relationship was extraordinary.

There are thousands of soldiers in the guardhouse, and there are several chefs. Lao Li is the uncle who serves Cheng Yang and several hundred households, and is also the uncle who once guarded.

Listening to Cheng Yang's question at this moment, Zeng Wei quickly put down his chopsticks and replied: "My lord, my uncle has been sick for the past few days, so I asked my cousin to help you cook a few meals for fear of infecting your lord. I have tasted my cousin first You just let him come, sir, don’t you blame me?” Ordinary people in the guard are not allowed to enter, but there are many people who are jealous of uncle’s seat, and uncle is worried that others will take his seat when he is away, so he has to...

Of course Cheng Yang trusted Zeng Weiwei, nodded, and asked him while eating: "How old is your cousin? If he wants to keep working, let him be the head cook in the future, and let Lao Li go home to take care of himself." He didn't Greed for those big fish and meat, but also like to eat delicious food.

Zeng Huwei's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a smile: "That brat is eighteen, but he doesn't like cooking, and he has a big heart. Fortunately, he is filial and knows how to help my uncle. But my lord thinks highly of him so much, I will ask him later, maybe he wants to do it again."

"Don't force it, I don't want to cook for people all day long." Cheng Yang said with a casual smile.

Guard Zeng quickly thanked him.

In the next few days, Cheng Yang didn't ask about this matter again. When he came back from training on the fourth day, he suddenly remembered and asked Zeng Weiwei: "Is Lao Li cured?"

Guard Zeng smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I can come back tomorrow and continue to serve you!"

Cheng Yang smiled, but he was not very happy in his heart.Of course he hoped that the old man would be in good health, but why does Lao Tzu not cook as well as his son?And that kid, since he doesn't like cooking, why did he practice such a good cooking skill?In the past few days, the stir-fried dishes have been refurbished. Although they are still the common ones, they are much more delicious than those made by Lao Li, and even the appearance is more eye-catching.

There was still some time before lunch, and Cheng Yang walked towards the kitchen on a whim.Such a talent, he wants to personally retain once.

At that time, the guard Zeng went to release the water, so he didn't know where Lord Qianhu went, and he didn't find anyone when he came back, so he didn't think much about it.

Cheng Yang soon arrived outside the kitchen.

It was very busy inside, with the sound of turning the spatula, the sound of chopping vegetables, and the woman's coquettish scolding: "If the fire is heated up, is this how your family cooks?"

Cheng Yang couldn't help laughing, there is such a hot woman...

Smiling and frowning, this is the guard, where is the woman from?
He walked in with a cold face.

The fog was lingering inside, Cheng Yang was standing at the door, and the first thing he saw were two cooks squatting in front of the stove to light the fire. In front of the chopping board was a figure dressed as a cook with his back turned to him, the kitchen knife in his hand was rising and falling, and his head was turning from side to side. Turning around, for a while, I think the fire of cooking on the left is low, and for a while, I think the fire of pancakes on the right is too high. The sound is loud and crisp, and I don't worry about being heard at all.

Dare to be so arrogant, there must be some origins.

Besides the "cousin" who had been guarding, who else could there be?

Cheng Yang watched at the door calmly, since they were all here anyway, he would go in after they finished their work.

A guy saw him during the period, and Cheng Yang made a silent gesture before he spoke, and just lazily leaned against the door panel, staring at the man dressed as a woman.The girl is not tall, about the same size as A Yu, reaching up to his shoulders at most.But the younger sister is slender, and it hurts to look at it. This Miss Li wears an apron around her waist, and the belt stretches out her waist, which is also quite thin...

Cheng Yang stared there for a long time, then moved his gaze upwards, suddenly wanting to see what Miss Li looks like.

When he was about to finish his work, Cheng Yang hid behind the door.

Inside, Yuniang put all the dishes on the plate first, and put them on the case one by one. The two big cases are for officials such as Baihu, and the small one is reserved for the adults of Qianhu.After the dishes, there are pancakes and soup. She is only responsible for serving, and the rest are handed over to others.A group of people left with their things, and she was the only one left in the kitchen. Yu Niang supported her waist and sat on a small bench beside her to wipe her sweat.

Cooking for so many people is exhausting.

But the wages are high, and Dad is reluctant to lose his job, and she is also reluctant.

"You are Lao Li's son? What's his name?"

A man's voice suddenly sounded behind her, and Yu Niang was startled, she stood up immediately, and when she turned around, she saw a tall man almost clinging to her standing behind her.This scene was really scary, Yuniang couldn't help hiding back, but forgot that there was a stove behind her, her thigh accidentally bumped into it, she let out an "ah" and fell back.

But a strong arm pulled her back, saving her from the bad luck of falling into the iron pot.

But the next moment, Yuniang raised her heart before she could settle down.

It was only because the man's hand was on her waist, while her whole body was thrown into his arms.It was summer at this time, and the other party had also changed into casual clothes, and her clothes were thin. She relied on her cousin being a popular person around Lord Qianhu, and she didn't have a corset. She only came in dressed like a man. I don't know if the other party is aware of it.

Yuniang pushed the man away abruptly, quickly took a few steps to the side, and looked at him angrily and suspiciously.

Tall and handsome, he was looking at her with a half-smile.

Yu Niang was hesitating whether to speak or not, when suddenly the man asked her again.

Yu Niang swallowed and spat, and said in a hoarse voice on purpose: "Yes, who are you? Don't you know that trespassing is not allowed in the kitchen?"

She pretended to be quite similar, but her face was rosy, her eyes were bright and clever, her brows were brows and her nose was red, she looked like a girl no matter what.

Cheng Yang was inexplicably funny, deliberately sullenly reported his identity, followed Su Rong and said, "I think your cooking is worse than your father's, why don't you take over from your father as the head cook here in the future, how about it? If you think the wages are low , I can raise it for you."

Yu Niang was dumbfounded, she didn't expect Lord Qianhu to come here, and, besides, she was really as young and handsome as her cousin said.She looked at him, suddenly thinking about something else.

She's gone, she's an old girl through and through, she looks pretty good, and she has some savings at home, so she shouldn't worry about getting married.But Yu Niang just looked down on those who came to propose marriage.She thinks the rich man is playful, and the man from the same village is vulgar and incompetent, so she picks and picks and procrastinates until now.Last year my cousin and sister-in-law came to our house as a guest, and my father talked about her marriage again. My cousin suddenly said: "I think Mrs. Qianhu is very suitable for Yu Niang. He has earned an official position for eight years. He is really capable, but he doesn't look at him He has no official temper. As for him, he is a good-looking woman who has never been messed with. He just married his sister, and now he is going to marry a good-bred one..." before he finished speaking, he was pinched by his cousin.

At that time, Yuniang heard about it, but she felt that the fifth-rank official must not look down on her as a village girl. Isn't that vulgar?
However, seeing him today, Yu Niang didn't find any vulgarity in the man in front of her, she just thought he was really good with his sword eyebrows and star eyes.

If he is really what my cousin said, it would be nice to marry him.

No, no, now is the time to think wildly?
Yu Niang thought for a while, then turned sideways and said: "I don't intend to cook for others, but adults think highly of me so much, I am willing to do it for another three months. After three months, I will leave the guard. How about letting my father do it?" She originally planned to leave tomorrow, but now she has other thoughts, so she naturally hopes to stay for a while, three months, there should be a chance to get close to him, right?Didn't he want to marry that kind of daughter-in-law? Yu Niang is very confident in herself.

Cheng Yang raised his hand and touched his nose, but he didn't answer right away, but walked around the not-so-spacious kitchen.

Zeng Wei said that she obviously didn't want to continue doing it, and now she changed her mind temporarily, could it be that she is also interested in him?
If so, I would like you to...

Cheng Yang paused, turned around and walked towards Yuniang.

Yuniang looked at the man without hesitation, but her chest was pounding.

Cheng Yang walked up to her before he lowered his head and asked her, "Do you really want to cook for me?"

Not to be outdone, Yuniang looked back at him: "I just don't want to disappoint my lord's kindness, and my lord promised to give me a raise."

Cheng Yang smiled, raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, but women are not allowed in the guard."

Yu Niang blushed, knowing that she was probably seen through by others, but before revealing it, she could only pretend and said with a dry smile: "Your Excellency said yes, but what does that have to do with me?"

Cheng Yang's throat rolled, and he looked down at the woman in his arms, and couldn't help pinching his big hand again.
