Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 717 The smell of gunpowder

There was always a smile on Meng Bujiu's lips, and he only had the last sip of the herbal tea in his cup.

But Shen Hechi's cup was still full and he hadn't taken a sip.

"Of course you can. I ordered a lot, so it's enough for one more person." Shen Hechi hesitated for a moment, but he only frowned for a moment and soon relaxed.

"Hmm? He Chi doesn't like cold tea? I saw you didn't drink a sip, it seems you don't like this cold tea, Fubao, ask the cook to pour me another cup, I like it, change it to tea for He Chi, brew the Yunshan Light Mist Tea I gave you last time, this tea is rare, let He Chi taste it, if you like it, I will give you some another day, so that I don't have to eat a meal for nothing and feel uneasy."

Meng Bujiu drank the herbal tea in the cup and said to Jiang Fubao.

There was a hint of cunning in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were more curved.

"Mr. Shen, don't you like herbal tea? Someone, make a cup of Yunshan Light Mist Tea. Yes, this new herbal tea is not something that everyone can get used to. I originally wanted to make it for people who have heatstroke to get rid of the heat in their bodies. It tastes better than medicine.

Later, I found that adding rock sugar to the tea made it taste really good. It was more sour than the previous herbal tea, so I just made it into a summer drink. I guess Mr. Shen doesn't like sour food, so he doesn't like to drink it. It's okay, drinking tea is fine. Lian'er, come here, I'll give you a cup, pour another cup of herbal tea."

After Jiang Fubao finished speaking, she took the cup from Meng Bujiu's hand and waited for the cook to come over. She handed the cup to the cook Lian'er and asked her to pour another cup.

Shen Hechi was a little anxious, and he quickly said: "No, I like it. No need to pour tea, just drink this." He is not stupid. This herbal tea was invented by Fubao himself. If he says he doesn't like it, doesn't it mean that he doesn't like the herbal tea made by Fubao?

He picked up the cup of herbal tea beside him and drank it all in one gulp.

It tastes really good, and I don't feel so hot after drinking it.

"Oh, I thought you didn't like to drink, Fubao, ask the cook to pour He Chi another glass, it was my misunderstanding, hehe."

Meng Bujiu kept smiling faintly.

When Shen Hechi saw him like this, he felt furious.

He forced himself to hold back his smile.

"Okay, pour me another cup. I love this herbal tea. I love everything Fubao makes, including this herbal tea."

Afraid that Jiang Fubao wouldn't believe him, he said it again.

The cook brought over two cups of herbal tea at the same time, and the two men drank them together as if they were competing with each other.

Like drinking.

Jiang Fubao blinked quickly a few times, then glanced at them sideways, somewhat speechless.

What's going on with this inexplicable smell of gunpowder?

"Miss, the food is being delivered from the restaurant." Just then, Pan Erya opened the curtain and stretched her head to shout.

"So soon? Let them bring it in. We'll eat in the backyard. Arya, get someone to move the tables out of the house and put them together."

All the tables in the room are square tables, of the same style and naturally the same height.

When put together, it becomes a long table that can seat a lot of people.

"No need to share, I ordered two servings of each dish." Shen Hechi said quickly.

"It's okay, we always eat at the same table, we're used to it." Jiang Fubao waved his hand and simply stood up to move the table with Pan Erya and the others.

He doesn't have any airs of a master at all.

Shen Hechi stood there in a daze.

"You don't understand Fubao. She never treats her servants harshly. No, it should be said that she always treats these servants as human beings. If you can't accept sitting at the same table with the servants, you can open another table." Meng Bujiu's voice was very low, and only Shen Hechi could hear it.

He quickly turned his head and looked at Meng Bujiu.

"No need. Fubao and I felt the same way. We were just worried that she would not be used to eating with the servants. Unexpectedly, this turned out to be exactly what I wanted." The voice sounded a little gnashed.

"Oh? Really? I was overthinking it. Let's go. It doesn't make sense to let a girl do hard work. Let's go and help." Meng Bujiu smiled and walked into the house. Shen Hechi hurriedly followed, afraid of falling behind him.

Jiang Fubao felt uncomfortable all over after this meal.

The two of them spoke in a sarcastic tone, making everyone at the table feel awkward.

"Fubao, don't you like sweet and spicy dishes the most? Come, eat more." Shen Hechi used the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of food for her, very attentive.

"Fubao, eat less spicy food. Haven't you been suffering from internal heat recently? Here, this bitter melon can reduce internal heat. Eat some. I just tasted it and it's not very bitter. You should be able to accept it. If it doesn't taste good, it's okay. Just spit it out."

Meng Bujiu also picked up two slices of bitter melon for Jiang Fubao.

Jiang Fubao looked at the bowl full of food and didn't know where to start.

"Okay, okay, I'll get it myself and you guys eat yours." She glared at the two of them and ate slowly. She pushed the spicy dishes aside and picked up a few more slices of bitter melon with her chopsticks. She had a blister in her mouth and it was really painful.

Both of them saw this scene. Shen Hechi's face turned a little blue, and Meng Bujiu's mouth corners were bent upwards. Their expressions were different.

After dinner, Jiang Fubao drove the two away on the pretext that the clinic was busy.

One went to Sanshan Academy reluctantly, and the other got on a carriage and rushed back to Chang'an Town.

The next day, Shen Hechi got up at dawn. He knew that Jiang Fubao was going back to the village today, so he planned to wait at the gate of Jiang's house and go to Jiangjia Village with Fubao. He came back this time just for Jiang Fubao. He wanted to make up for the lost time after not seeing him for so long.

He changed into a refreshing light blue outfit, tied up his long hair with a ribbon, and put on a jade crown. He had a quick breakfast and went out.

As a result, as soon as the door opened, a woman was seen standing at the door waiting.

Shen Hechi frowned: "Who are you?" he asked the man in a cold tone.

"You are Mr. Shen, right? I am Xu the matchmaker from this town. May I come in and ask for some water to drink?" Xu the matchmaker smiled flatteringly. When she spoke, her waist was bent, but her head was slightly raised, and her figure looked a little strange.

It seemed like he was deliberately trying to please Shen Hechi.

"There is no water at my house. Just tell me if you have anything to say." When Shen Hechi heard the word "matchmaker", his face changed suddenly.

The tone is also very bad.

He refused directly, but the matchmaker did not dare to get angry and continued to say in a flattering voice: "If you don't want to drink, then don't drink. Can I ask if Mr. Shen has made up his mind? I have a girl here, who is about the same age as Mr. Shen. She is the niece of Magistrate Wang of Yunyou County. She..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shen Hechi.

"I already have someone in my heart. I'm sorry to disappoint you. Please move aside for a moment." Shen Hechi knew that he was being targeted, but he didn't take her niece, a mere county magistrate, seriously.

After saying that, he walked to the other side.

"Master Shen, Master Shen, Shen..." The matchmaker kept calling behind him, but Shen Hechi ignored her.

The matchmaker didn't expect Shen Hechi to refuse so decisively, so she no longer smiled.
