Just when the second young master Song was still struggling with whether he should pay the bill, Xie Lingyun next to him suddenly smiled and said: "I also said just now that I will pay for Mr. Zhou's tea this time. I will ask someone to go back and pick it up."

Seventy taels for the shopkeeper!"

After hearing the lady's instructions, Suanzhu was about to agree, but Master Song next to him naturally couldn't let his favorite woman pay the bill for him. He hurriedly stopped Suanzhu and said: "Lingyun, wait a minute, how can I make you pay the bill with me here?

Let’s do this, I’ll write a note and you, the shopkeeper, will send someone to the Song Mansion to get the money!”

When Second Young Master Song said the above words, although he tried his best to appear that he didn't care, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he was so distressed that he almost vomited blood. Seventy taels is not a small amount, and his monthly salary is

It's only a little over thirty taels, but it's good now. Zhou Zhong's one cup of tea has cost him two months, and he still doesn't know how he will spend the next month?

Seeing the distressed look of the Second Young Master Song, Xie Lingyun's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of subtle cunning. At the same time, she was secretly laughing in her heart. The Second Young Master Song has no money for the time being. How will he still pester her in the future?

At that moment, the Second Young Master Song wrote a note to the shopkeeper, and then summoned up the energy to send Xie Lingyun out of the teahouse. After the Xie family's master and servant disappeared from his sight, the Second Young Master Song's pretty face was immediately filled with gloom, and he looked at Zhou

He looked in the direction of the mansion for a long time, and finally said fiercely: "Zhou Zhong, I will let you live freely for two more days. When your prospective father-in-law dies, I will make your Zhou family kneel on the ground and beg me!"

"

"Sneeze~" Zhou Zhong, who was preparing dinner at home, suddenly sneezed.

"Which beautiful woman is talking about me again?" Zhou Zhong muttered, then picked up the eggs on the table, knocked them on the edge of the table, and beat the eggs into the bowl very skillfully.

Today's dinner was originally prepared by Zhuo'er. Even though Zhuo'er used to be a rich young lady, cooking was one of the compulsory courses for women in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, although her cooking skills were not as good as Aunt Luo's, they were still good.

It was a very good move. However, Zhou Zhong thought that everyone had suffered a lot during this period and it was necessary to cook a sumptuous dinner to celebrate, so it was definitely not possible to rely on the bracelet alone. In the end, everyone took action together, except Aunt Wang who wanted to

Looking at Duo'er, he and Butler Xu all went to help.

In his previous life, Zhou Zhong became an orphan early. If he didn't know how to cook, he would have starved to death. In addition, he has a greedy mouth and cannot eat less meat, so his cooking skills are still good.

For example, today he cooked two dishes, one of which was stewed with pork bones and tofu, and the other was egg, tofu and cabbage soup. Although Butler Xu is delicious, his cooking skills are not very good, so he is only responsible for steaming rice, and the rest of the dishes are mainly

The bracelet is in charge.

The three of them had been busy until it was almost dark, and then they prepared a table of rich dishes. Seeing Zhou Zhong and Zhuo'er both so happy, Aunt Wang's mood improved a lot. Looking at the table full of food, she kept praising her.

Their brother and sister were good at cooking, but she was a little strange: she had watched Zhou Zhong grow up, but she never knew he could cook?

In fact, it is not only Aunt Wang who is surprised, but Zhuo'er and Butler Xu are also surprised. Junzi is far away from the kitchen, and Zhou Zhong used to focus on studying and never cared about other things. How could he be so good at cooking?

Zhou Zhong did not explain the questions in the minds of Aunt Wang and Zhuo'er. This was not because Zhou Zhong deliberately wanted to remain mysterious, but because he didn't know how to explain it. In addition, he explained about the cooking skills today.

, then if I show my talents in other aspects in the future, I will definitely need to explain. I don’t know what kind of lies I will make up then. Instead of one lie after another, it is better not to explain it at the beginning and let others know.

The people around him slowly got used to his mystery, and over time naturally no one asked anymore.

Although Aunt Wang and Zhuo'er had some doubts in their hearts, seeing that Zhou Zhong didn't want to explain, they stopped asking. In addition, they had indeed suffered during this period. Not only did they have to bear the grief of Zhou Hai's death, but also

Suffering the loss of the ruined family business and being unable to eat or sleep all day long, although Zhou Zhong had asked housekeeper Xu to hide the current situation at home from Aunt Wang and the others, Aunt Wang and Zhuo'er could also see that the situation at home might have reached a critical point.

We are at the end of our rope, otherwise we would not be eating porridge and eating pickles every day.

Now that the situation at home has finally improved, and seeing Zhou Zhong in high spirits, Aunt Wang and Zhuo'er both breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved, so this meal naturally

We were very happy to eat, and the food was very rich, so everyone ate a lot more than usual.

Zhou Zhong also has a big appetite. As a carnivore, making him eat porridge and pickles for several days is simply more uncomfortable than killing him. Although he ate the sweet and sour pork sent by Aunt Luo last night, the meat was not only

It didn't satisfy his craving, but it also attracted his greed. If he couldn't eat meat today, he might even be thinking of robbing someone on the road.

It was precisely because of his vegetarian life during this period that Zhou Zhong felt that today's meal was particularly delicious, especially the pork bone stewed tofu dish he made. There were two big bones in it, one for him and Duo'er.

His mouth was full of oil when he gnawed it. The Duoer people didn't eat much. Zhou Zhong had to chew up the last two big bone sticks by himself. Even the marrow inside was cracked open and sucked clean by him. This made the usual mouthful

The greedy housekeeper Xu drooled when he saw it, but he was too embarrassed to ask Zhou Zhong for it. In the end, he could only stuff tofu into his mouth desperately.

Everyone was full after this meal, especially Zhou Zhong and Duo'er, who lay on the chairs and didn't want to move. The bracelets were about the same. After all, they were young people and had poor self-control. In the end, Aunt Wang helped Housekeeper Xu clean up.

Endgame, but just when Butler Xu delivered the things to the kitchen in front, he heard someone knocking on the door. Butler Xu ran over to open the door, only to find Butcher Wu standing outside the door, and a truck full of food was parked under the steps.

Pork cart.

"Hey, brother Wu Shan, I'm really sorry. We were eating in the backyard just now and we couldn't hear the door knocking in front of us. Please wait!" Butler Xu saw Wu Shan and then remembered that he had said that he would move in tonight.

But they were so happy while eating just now that they forgot about it. They didn't know how long the other party had been knocking on the door, so they apologized as soon as they came up.

Unexpectedly, Wu Shan showed a simple and honest smile and said: "Butler Xu, you are so polite. In fact, I have just arrived. Do you have time now? I have a cart of pork here. I want to push it to the yard to have a rest!"

"If you have time, I will open the corner door next to it. You push the car in, and I will take you to see the yard!" Butler Xu said and opened the corner door next to the gate. There are steps at the gate of Zhou Mansion, so the car cannot enter. Yes, the corner door next to it is used for vehicle entry and exit.

Butcher Wu rubbed his hands that were almost frozen and pushed the cart into the Zhou Mansion. It was completely dark by now, but he still couldn't help but look around curiously. If it had been before, he wouldn't have been able to get in with his status. Therefore, he was also very curious about wealthy families like Zhou Mansion.

Regarding Butcher Wu's curiosity, Butler Xu's face flashed with a trace of pride that had disappeared for a long time, but then he became a little lonely again. He first went to the kitchen to greet Wu Yiniang, and then took Butcher Wu to the front of Zhou's house. The two courtyards on the right side of the courtyard said: "Brother Wu, look, there are two courtyards here. I live in the courtyard at the back, and the courtyard in the front is empty. It used to be a residence prepared for guests, but the furniture inside is... There are no more, we can provide a bed, but you have to prepare the bedding yourself!"

"Okay, it's good to have a bed. I've already brought the bedding!" Wu Shanben was busy all afternoon today and didn't have time to prepare anything, so he brought the bedding over. He thought he would make do with a floor bunk today, but he didn't expect The Zhou family is willing to provide a bed, which saves him from having to move the bed from home tomorrow.

At that moment, Butler Xu opened the gate of the courtyard and held a lantern to guide Butcher Wu. After the other party pushed the car into the courtyard, Butler Xu briefly introduced the situation of the courtyard to him.

This yard is almost exactly the same as the yard where Butler Xu lives. In addition to the three main rooms, there are two side rooms on both sides. Jane can tidy up one room and use it as a kitchen and the other as a storage room. Wushan is used to store pork.

After Wu Shan saw the courtyard, he was very satisfied. At this time, Zhou Chong also learned about Wu Shan's arrival from Aunt Wang, so he rushed over. Then he took Wu Shan to the servants' room, where there were many servants. Wu Shan chose the sturdiest and bulkiest bed for his bed. After all, given his physique, an ordinary bed really couldn't bear it.

Zhou Zhong originally wanted to help Wu Shan lift the bed. A bed weighs hundreds of kilograms, but he didn't expect that Wu Shan, a big man, was so strong that he could lift the bed and put it on his shoulders with just one hand. It looked so light and effortless at all. Just like an ordinary person moving a small chair, Zhou Zhong couldn't help but praise: "What a strength!"

After making arrangements for Wu Shan, Zhou Zhong returned to the backyard, while Butler Xu chatted with Wu Shan for a while, mainly telling him things to pay attention to when living in the house. For example, Wu Shan could only move around in the front yard, while Zhou Zhong and Aunt Wang were in the backyard. Most of their residences are occupied by female relatives, so they are absolutely not allowed to enter. Wu Shan also understood this and naturally nodded in agreement.

When Zhou Chong returned to the inner house, he originally wanted to write down the Journey to the West in his study, so that Butler Xu could prepare early and make his name famous as soon as possible, earning himself the first pot of gold. With this most critical first pot of gold , he can also borrow money to make money, so that his family can recover as soon as possible.
