After putting the food on the table, Fang Xiaoxi turned and left. This person only ate white rice, but he looked at him like that. What the hell was that
Nan Nan picked up the dish made by Fang Xiaoxi and put it in her mouth. Hmm, it tasted delicious. She shouted to the outside: "Fang Xiaoxi, come in."
The person who came in was not Fang Xiaoxi, but Fang Xiaoxi's third brother, Fang Shaofeng: "Mr. Mu, is there anything you want to talk to me about? It's the same if you tell me."
Nan Nan and Fang Xiaoxi are of the same age, so Fang Shaofeng is a little older than Nan Nan. Looking at Fang Shaofeng, she said, "So it's the third brother..."
Before he could finish his words, Fang Shaofeng suddenly spoke up: "I don't deserve it. Master Mu, just call me Fang Shaofeng. I don't deserve to be called Third Brother or anything like that."
This is someone who doesn't want to acknowledge you even after I called him out. Nan Nan's face darkened. There must be something wrong with this family! He is the son of a county magistrate, and he is better than you, a peasant, but he still refuses to acknowledge you.
Tong Ruyu thought so too, and thought Nan Nan was going to get mad, but Nan Nan smiled instead: "Third brother, you are joking. Look, you are older than me! You deserve to call me Third Brother."
Fang Shaofeng's mouth twitched. He had never seen anyone thicker-skinned than Nan Nan: "No, just tell me what you want to say."
Nan Nan was disappointed and touched her nose a little embarrassedly: "It's like this, I just want to know if these meals were made by Fang Xiaoxi."
There was really no need to hide this, Fang Shaofeng nodded directly: "My little sister did it, is there any problem?"
Nan Nan nodded: "Yes, it's a big problem, a very big problem. Third brother, don't you know that Fang Xiaoxi is now my mother's apprentice, my junior sister. My mother is a very scary person, and you all know that if the tasks she assigns are not completed, my junior sister will have a hard time."
When Tong Ruyu heard this, she seemed to understand something. So what is this family? Is it just because this Miss Fang is Madam Mu's disciple
Fang Shaofeng was speechless. Who would say that about his own mother? But it seemed that the lady did have some tricks. Moreover, his sister brought back a large stack of books that day and didn't allow anyone to read them. I wonder what Mrs. Mu had instructed
I haven't seen my sister give any other instructions these days. But after Master Ye came, he complained that the food upstairs was tasteless. He came to eat every day and asked my sister to prepare it and send it up to him.
As a result, after Fang Shaofeng brought it up, the others smelled the food and wanted to eat it. After a conversation, the matter was decided. The Fang family was responsible for the meals of the construction workers in the other courtyard, purchasing and cooking, and the other courtyard paid them, and the price was not low, so it became like this.
Now thinking about what Nan Nan said, will it really affect my sister? When Fang Shaofeng thought of this, he felt bad: "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
Tong Ruyu looked at Fang Shaofeng's figure as he left, and the corner of her mouth twitched. This man was really good at fooling people. She looked at Nan Nan and said, "Is Madam Mu really that scary?"
Nan Nan nodded: "I'm not kidding, eat quickly. When Xiao Xi downstairs finds out that I fooled her brother, she won't be able to eat."
So you know what you are doing? And you still want to do it, right? Tong Ruyu was a little speechless, but the food tasted really good, so she ate faster.
Fang Shaofeng came to the kitchen and saw that everything was almost ready, then he spoke: "Sister, I have something to ask you."
Fang Xiaoxi was a little puzzled: "Third brother, what's the matter? Why are you so serious?"
The meals for the villa on the mountain were cooked by their family, but Fang Xiaoxi was not tired at all. Because the cutting and washing of vegetables were all done by the hired ladies in the village, who sat with Fang's mother.
Fang Xiaoxi was only responsible for cooking the dishes, which didn't take up much time and wasn't tiring. Looking at her third brother, she was a little surprised to see him so serious.
"Did you take Madam Mu as your master? And she didn't assign you any tasks?"
Huh? Fang Xiaoxi looked confused, but since her brother asked, she had no need to hide it, so she nodded: "Yes, I have worshipped the master, and he has assigned me a task. It is to memorize all the books I brought back within a month."
Fang Shaofeng's eyes widened: "No, it's such a big stack of books. You have a month to memorize them all. Why didn't you tell me earlier? You are so tight on time, why are you cooking? Is it because you want to make money?"
At this point, Fang Shaofeng clenched his hands. It was all because of their uselessness as brothers that their sister had to work so hard: "Don't cook anymore in the future. Teach me and I'll do it. You can just memorize the lessons with peace of mind."
"Xiao Xi, since you have become my disciple, you must listen to my master. Madam Mu is obviously a capable person, and you must not let her down."
Fang Xiaoxi looked at Fang Shaofeng speechlessly: "Don't worry, I have arranged my schedule."
If it weren't for the homework assigned to her by her master this time, she wouldn't have known that she could read ten lines at a glance and remember everything she saw.
This might be the benefit of being a time traveler. She could remember the contents of the medical books at a glance, so it would be absolutely no problem for her to memorize them all in a month.
But why did my brother suddenly care about this topic? Suddenly thinking of the two people in the room, I looked at Fang Shaofeng and said, "Third brother, did Master Mu tell you something?"
Fang Shaofeng was still a very honest boy, and he admitted it directly: "Yes, Master Mu said that if you fail to complete the task assigned by Madam Mu, you will be miserable."
Fang Xiaoxi understood and looked at Fang Shaofeng with a smile: "Don't worry, Third Brother, I can do it, you don't have to worry. Besides, I'm just responsible for cooking every day, which doesn't take up much of my time. I spend most of my time reading."
Fang Shaofeng thought about it and it seemed to be true. Just as he was about to nod and say something, he saw Fang Xiaoxi walking into the room: "Mu Nannan, what do you mean? You eat the food I cooked and you scare my brother?"
Nan Nan was a little confused. Mu Nan Nan? What kind of name is that? He coughed twice and looked at Fang Xiaoxi: "Just call me Nan Nan. Besides, I'm older than you. You should call me Brother Nan Nan or Senior Brother Nan Nan to be polite."
Fang Xiaoxi rolled her eyes: "Brother Nannan? Ugh..."
She made a vomiting gesture. She is an adult inside, okay? Calling you a half-grown boy brother? Bah! You are just imagining it.
Nan Nan looked at Fang Xiaoxi and said, "You are my mother's disciple. I am the eldest senior brother, Bei Bei is the second senior sister, and you are the youngest junior sister. What's wrong with calling me Brother Nan Nan?"
That's what she said, but how could Fang Xiaoxi admit it? "I'm worshipping my master, it has nothing to do with you, Mu Nannan, leave my house now, don't come to my house if you have nothing to do."
Nan Nan sat there without moving, looking at Fang Xiaoxi: "No, why do you chase people away all the time? Your behavior is very bad. I came to you for business besides just a meal."
Tong Ruyu was watching Nan Nan talking nonsense. When he came just now, he said that he came to visit the villa on the mountain and to find Master Ye to calculate a date for the opening. How come he came to discuss serious matters with Miss Fang
Fang Xiaoxi was attracted by this business: "Oh? You have something else to talk to me about? What is it? But I'm sorry, I may not have time. I need to complete the task assigned to me by my master."
Why is this so hard to believe? Nan Nan laughed and said, "Even if you don't complete the task, my mother won't do anything to you."
Fang Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Really? Then who was talking nonsense in front of my third brother just now and scaring him?"
Nan Nan touched his nose and said, "Well, I am trying to force you to show up. What's wrong with you? I am your senior brother, why are you avoiding me? Are you still angry about Bei Bei driving you away last time?"
Fang Xiaoxi really didn't take it to heart, she just felt a little dislike for Beibei, and shook her head: "Not really, after all, the master was not at home at that time, and it can't be said that he was driven away, I was going to leave anyway."
"If you have nothing to do, please leave immediately after eating. For the sake of the master, I will let you eat for once, but there will be no next time."
Nan Nan looked at Fang Xiaoxi's ruthlessness and felt bad for a moment: "How can you be like this? Don't you want to make money? I came here this time with a way to make your family rich!"
He knew that Fang Xiaoxi wanted to work hard to make money so that her eldest brother could take the imperial examination, and her second and third brothers could also go to school.
When Fang Xiaoxi heard about making money, she became serious: "Oh? Are you here to give me some money? By the way, when will you pay me back the money you owe me?"
Nan Nan was confused: "No, when did I owe you money?"
Fang Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows: "Who said last time that saving my life should be paid in silver? Your life is worth how much, give me that much silver, and you are refusing to pay without an IOU. You are the son of the county magistrate, aren't you afraid of losing face for your master and master's master?"
Nan Nan remembered this incident and looked at Fang Xiaoxi: "Have you never been educated? Do you understand the principle that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish? I am here to make your family prosperous for a long time, but you are so short-sighted that you ask me for a lump sum payment?"
Fang Xiaoxi was actually interested: "Oh? Then tell me how to make our family rich in the long run."
Nan Nan came well prepared this time. She looked at Fang Xiaoxi and said, "Have you read the medical books my mother gave you? They are all treasures that can save lives."
Fang Xiaoxi looked at Nan Nan in confusion: "So you are planning to steal those medical books?"
