Chapter 70: Ways to please (below)

Views:

Yan Dan has been wandering in the mortal world for a while, but he has never learned how to cook and cook soup. Probably the group of people in the troupe had preconceived ideas, thinking that she was from some rich family, and she was never allowed to do this kind of cooking, for fear that she would accidentally burn the kitchen.

Therefore, Yan Dan could only cook the soup in disgrace. She specifically asked Bailing for advice, and asked clearly about the stewing method of pheasant and old ginseng soup. Yesterday, she noticed that the owner of the mountain ate very lightly, with a tasteless appearance, and felt that it was time to add some meat.

Yan Dan washed the old ginseng and pheasant fungus together and waited by the stove. She was cooking for the first time, and she was wary, for fear that the soup would be simmered after the heat was over, or that it was not simmered enough to taste delicious. There is nothing at all. If there is too much salt, all the previous results will be destroyed.

Yan Dan took a sip of the soup, and suddenly understood one thing: God must be fair, she doesn't know anything about rhythm, but she knows a little about cooking skills, and the two cancel each other out. In fact, she also felt that she had made a profit. After all, playing the piano or something could be done in Qingping, but if it was real, it was far from being able to cook.

She asked herself that she was a real demon.

Yan Dan happily took the soup to find Yu Mo. And he happened to be sitting on the bench outside the study, squinting slightly for a nap, and when he saw Yan Dan approaching, the expression on his face was a bit complicated.

Yan Dan immediately remembered the stupid things he had done before, and hesitated for a while, but when he saw the pot of soup in his hand, he immediately became firm again: "Master of the Mountain..."

Yu Mozhi got up and straightened his robe: "What?"

"Shanzhu, I made soup for you, would you like a sip?"

Yu Mo looked at her, then at the crock pot in her hand: "This is your first time cooking?"

Yan Dan showed a clear smile: "Yes, this is the first time I stewed soup, just to let the mountain master taste it."

Yu Mo coughed lightly: "Really..." After a while, he sat up and said softly, "Then I'll give it a try."

Yan Dan immediately poured a bowl of soup into his hands, only to see that he took a sip with a spoon and hesitated for a while before bringing it to his mouth. After a while, he nodded slightly and said, "It's okay."

Yan Dan couldn't help but wondered, from what he looked like, could it be that she felt that the first time she was cooking, she would make an unpalatable soup, which is why she made it so tragic? She pouted unhappily and muttered, "Even if it's the first time, you can cook delicious dishes, but who said it must be unpalatable?"

Yu Mo reached out and pinched the tip of her nose: "What are you mumbling about?"

His actions were casual, yet revealing some kindness. Yan Dan is the kind of model who slaps his nose on his face when he gives a good face. He smiled and said, "No, no, I didn't say anything. Shanzhu, is this soup really only 'good' instead of 'very good'? ?"

Yu Mo put down the almost empty soup bowl and tapped the edge of the bowl with a spoon: "Come and see for yourself."

Yan Dan leaned in and was knocked on the forehead by Yu Mo: "There's still sand in it, so I'll wash the fungus in the future."

Yan Dan was stunned, she almost kept doing stupid things in front of Yu Mo, which was not her usual level at all.

The next day, before it was bright, Bailing didn't even knock on the door, and broke through the door aggressively. Yan Dan was still confused at the time, rubbed his eyes and saw Bailinghu sitting down at the table with a face, and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Bailing threw a bunch of things in his hand onto the table, Gu Zi was sullen for a while, and then said in a sullen voice: "Well, the mountain master said that he has built a yard for you in the south not far from the lake, wait a minute. Pack up and move in."

The news was really like a bolt from the blue hitting Yan Dan's Tianling Gai, and drowsily ran away: "Why?"

Although she knew that it was a matter of time, Yu Mo had never touched her with a finger at all, so naturally he would not keep her by his side. But she still bears the name of the mountain master's concubine, and she has not been favored yet, and she is about to fall out of favor so soon, which hurts her self-esteem too much.

Bailing said irritably: "How could I know the reason? Well, this is given to you by the mountain master."

Yan Dan climbed out of bed and saw that the brocade box that Bailing handed over was very familiar. She opened the box and saw that there was a faint aroma in the room. It was the Yanbi Pill. Yan Dan froze in place for a while, only to see Bailing grabbing the wooden plate holding a few clothes, and after a crisp sound, the wooden plate was torn into two pieces of waste wood by her bare hands.

Yan Dan was taken aback and asked, "Bailing, is it because the mountain master scolded you, your face is ugly..."

It's okay if she didn't ask. When the question came out, Bailing immediately pulled up a robe on the broken tray and kept talking: "Look what's on this robe? It's all blood, and the mountain master vomited last night. So much blood! It must be the little bus snake who likes to be courteous when he has nothing to do. She stewed the soup for the mountain owner to drink. Does she know what it means to not make up for the deficiency? , she even dares to stew old ginseng chicken soup!"

Yan Dan suddenly felt guilty. Although she didn't know which snake demon was so unlucky to be hated by Bailing, but yesterday's chicken soup was stewed by her...

"I just like to be courteous, and I don't look at the time! It's better now, the mountain owner's injury is more serious, I have to tear up that minibus snake this time! It's really outrageous!" Bailing became furious, "Mountain The Lord also said that it’s fine, and I don’t even think about why I’ve worked so hard to prepare medicines?! It’s so hard to serve everyone, I’ll be pissed off sooner or later!”

Yan Dan saw the opportunity, pressed Bailing on the stool, and patted her on the back lightly: "Don't be angry, really don't be angry. Come on, close your eyes and take a breath..."

Bailing was pressed by her and calmed down a little: "I'm not mad at you, I know it's none of your business."

Yan Dan was very embarrassed. She also thought that this matter had nothing to do with her, but she was the culprit. But in front of the furious Bailing, she couldn't say much. Although her cultivation base is higher than Bailing, she is still far from being able to protect herself as a demon halfway through, so she has to keep her guilt in her heart.

"That... Is Master Yu Moshan okay now?"

Bai Lingqi hummed, "It's not dead yet."

Yan Dan finally understood how angry she was. If she was beaten to death on weekdays, she wouldn't say such things.

Bailing suddenly grabbed Yan Dan's sleeve and asked seriously, "Yan Dan, do you think it's better for me, or that minibus snake? Why is the mountain owner so protective of her?"

"This should... It's not maintenance. Maybe the owner of the mountain just thinks that the other party is unintentional, so he doesn't want to pursue it. In fact, I think," Yan Dan thought for a while, and said sincerely, "The owner of Mount Yu Mo is really kind to others. Okay, he has a very quiet temperament and won't care about others."

She did a bunch of stupid things, and Yu Mo didn't say anything at the end, and she had a really good temper.

Bailing sighed, stood up and said, "I understand." She picked up a pile of clothes, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly threw a sentence: "Can't you see that you still know the mountain master well, many people think that Master Yu Moshan treats people very coldly."

Yan Dan subconsciously argued: "I didn't—" In the end, he didn't say anything. Maybe he knew something. Recently, he was thinking about how to please him. He even remembered the trivial matters of what tea he likes to drink and how hot the tea should be. .

She looked at the Yanbi Pill in her hand and was a little speechless.

When Yan Dan walked across the corridor and walked to the door of Yu Mo's room, because the door was open, she didn't remember to knock on the door and rushed in.

Yu Mo was leaning against the bed, his expression was as usual, and when he saw her, his dark eyes showed a little surprise.

Yan Dan's heart was in a mess, and when he saw him, he lay on the edge of the bed without even thinking about it, took his hand and said hurriedly: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't let you drink that bowl of soup, I don't Knowing you'll vomit blood... no no, I'm not looking for a reason... I really know I'm wrong."

Yu Mo stood up and said in a low voice, "You listened to Bailing, right? She's in a hurry. I'm fine."

Yan Dan's mind became hot, and he immediately approached and hugged him without hesitation: "I'm sorry..." She didn't know why, but there was a sense of familiarity on the other side that made her want to get close, maybe it was because of being lonely for too long.

She heard Yu Mo sigh softly, raised her hand and stroked her back, a little helpless: "It's really okay."

"But Bailing showed me your robe, there's a lot of blood on it..."

Yu Mo coughed twice, in a low and gentle voice: "It will be fine once the congestion is coughed up. Speaking of which, have you looked at the new residence and is there anything missing?"

Yan Dan was stunned for a while, and then remembered that there was still such a thing. After holding it back, he couldn't hold back: "Uh, you don't want me anymore? But you haven't touched me, so... forget it?" There is also such a thing, she gets her wish, but the other party gets nothing.

Yu Mo laughed, slowly sat up, and said in a low voice, "Since you said that, come to the bed."

Yan Dan was stunned, but opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

Yu Mo only heard a smile: "You, it's just nice to talk about it." He paused, and then said: "Zilin and I don't like being difficult by strong people, if you don't want to stay here, you can leave at any time. ."

Yan Dan thought for a while and couldn't help but ask, "Then, what if I want to stay here?"

"I want to stay here," Yu Mo looked at her with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, "Take the Kulan Mountains as your home."

The new residence is not far from the lake, facing the south. It is a small house with a single house. However, consider this place your home.

Yan Dan thought hard, what is home like? Above the Jiuzhong Heavenly Court, she relied on her master. During the thousand years of Yewangchuan, she was all alone, wandering like a lonely soul. Even if he came to the mortal world and met so many mortals, he still did not find that kind of reassuring belonging.

Kuanlan Mountain is not really like spring all the year round. When it comes to cold winter, the climate will still cool down. The original brocade flowers have withered, and the green trees are not as fresh and tender as in spring, but they are still warmer and better than Jiangnan.

Yan Dan lived her life peacefully and steadily, the little wolf demon Dan Shu came to play with her from time to time, and the demons around were also very friendly. It's just that when I went with Dan Shu to collect medicinal herbs at the foot of the shady mountain, I met a bat spirit. Yan Dan always had a strange feeling. When the bat spirit smiled and showed his white teeth, it seemed to eat people. Her delusion.

And ever since she felt guilty about Yu Mo and rushed over to confess her guilt, and then met face-to-face, the other party at most nodded lightly and passed by, with a lukewarm attitude. Yan Dan felt that Yu Mo might have just woken up that day and was still confused, so his attitude towards her could be called gentle. Fortunately, what happened to Ying Yuan has taught her what self-knowledge is, otherwise, it is impossible to guarantee that she will not be affectionate again.

During the coldest days of winter, the elders of the fox clan came over to revise the book, expressing the good qualities of the fox clan that they would rather die than be poor and humble, and scolded the two mountain masters along the way. Zi Lin was furious and slapped his palm on the table. The blue-and-white porcelain cup on the short table jumped suddenly, and fell to the ground with a clatter. The broken pieces of porcelain splashed up, just across the face of Yu Mo who was looking down at the letter.

Yu Mo felt a chill on his cheek, raised his hand to touch it, there was blood on his fingers, and smiled indifferently: "Zilin, if you are not as angry as the fox clan, you don't need to be so angry." Zi Lin didn't speak with a sullen face. After a long time, he said, "The fox clan is really good." After speaking, he stood up and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Yan Dan couldn't help leaning over to look, tsk tsk, if Yu Mo's handsome appearance was ruined, it would be a real pity. Before she could see why, she only saw Yu Mo glance at her: "What are you looking at?" Yan Dan was immediately embarrassed, and smiled sweetly at him, took out the silk from his sleeve: "Shanzhu, you His face was cut open."

Yu Mo looked at her and didn't move. Yan Dan pinched the silk handkerchief and wiped it lightly on his side: "It's best to wash the wound clean, so that it will heal faster."

"It's not really an injury." Yu Mo's eyes were dark and deep, and he suddenly said, "Tomorrow will be colder than today, you are wearing too thin."

Yan Dan couldn't help thinking that he was probably not very awake now, otherwise how could he say such a thing. She has lived in Kulan Mountain for many days, but she still doesn't quite understand some things: "Mountain Master, in fact, your cultivation level is higher than that of Zilin Mountain Master, um, it should be much higher, right?"

Yu Mo leaned his elbow on the table: "So?"

"Zilin Mountain Master is so irritable, and your cultivation is not as good as you, how can you two be on an equal footing?" Yan Dan remembered a saying in the mortal world that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, not to mention that one of the tigers is old, weak and sick.

"Well, what are you trying to say?"

Yan Danwei spread his hands, and said indifferently, "I'm just curious, in general, shouldn't there be only one mountain master in this mountain range, not to mention that even I can vaguely see the real body of the Zilin mountain master? ."

Yu Mo turned his head and looked ahead with a complicated expression: "Really."

Yan Dan didn't know why, so he replied casually, "Of course it is, don't you..." Before she could say anything, she suddenly felt a dark wind in front of her. When she looked up, she saw Zi Lin standing there, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, almost as black as the bottom of a pot. He squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "You lotus essence, you have a lot of courage."
