Early the next morning, Zhu Ping'an got up from his bed reluctantly, looking like he hadn't slept well. When he got out of bed, his legs were shaking, his waist was sore, his legs were weak, his head was heavy, his feet were light, and he felt dizzy. It seemed that there were little stars in his eyes...
"What’s wrong with you?"
Li Shu sat up from the bed, her pretty face rosy and shiny, as juicy as a peach that had been hydrated by rain. She exuded a charming aura, pulled the quilt to shield her chest from the spring breeze, and asked with concern.
"Nothing, I just woke up feeling dizzy. You should sleep a little longer. I'll go to Taicang for breakfast." Zhu Ping'an turned around and smiled, saying while getting dressed.
"You are so clumsy. I'll ask Hua'er to serve you."
Li Shu was lying on the bed with her chin supported, blinking her big watery eyes as she watched Zhu Ping'an getting dressed, and said with a smile.
"No, I can put it on by myself." Zhu Pingan shook his head.
"Hehe... But you seem to have no strength left in your body..." Li Shu didn't know what she was thinking of. Her watery eyes curved like a crescent moon, and she looked around with her slender hands covering her mouth with a sweet smile.
"Then I'll try my best." Zhu Ping'an looked up at Li Shu, then turned his eyes downward, raised the corners of his lips, looked at Li Shu meaningfully and said, with something hidden in his words.
Their eyes met, and an ambiguous feeling filled the room.
"You, bad guy..." Li Shu's pretty face suddenly turned red with shame and heat. She pouted and pulled the quilt up hard, all the way to above her nose, leaving only a pair of watery eyes exposed, staring at Zhu Ping'an hard.
hehe
Zhu Ping'an chuckled, tied his belt, leaned over and kissed Li Shu on the forehead, then went to wash up while Li Shu was moaning.
Morning clouds, evening rain, morning and evening, this time it's a bit excessive...
After Zhu Pingan washed up, he was still a little nervous. He knew that he had made the same mistake that many men have made, and he was a little greedy...
But who can blame the food for being so delicious
Drive, drive, drive...
Zhu Ping'an led the Shamatte black horse out of the stable. Liu Mu and Liu Dadao were already waiting in the stable. The three of them went all the way to Taicang.
After arriving at Taicang, Liu Mu and Liu Dadao waited outside Taicang. Because they did not have the relevant procedures, they could not enter Taicang. The guard outside already knew Zhu Pingan. After Zhu Pingan greeted them, the guard made it convenient for Liu Mu and Liu Dadao to wait outside Taicang, and also politely promised them two breakfasts.
Liu Dadao was a very outgoing person, and Liu Mu deliberately flattered him, so the two of them soon became familiar with the guards outside. Under Liu Mu's intentional or unintentional guidance, the topic gradually revolved around the secrets of Taicang.
"Zihou is here. Let's go and have breakfast first. Breakfast is ready."
Zhu Ping'an entered Taicang alone. Doctor Jia from Taicang was already waiting there. He took Zhu Ping'an to the Taicang canteen for breakfast with a warm face.
"Thank you very much, Lord Jia." Zhu Ping'an bowed to express his gratitude.
Breakfast in Taicang is a classic set meal of meat buns and porridge. The meat buns are enough to fill you up, and the porridge is plenty.
After Zhu Ping'an and Doctor Jia sat down, officials such as Doctor Zhao also arrived at the cafeteria one after another. They greeted Zhu Ping'an warmly and sat down together to have breakfast.
Doctor Zhao and others seemed to have poor appetites and did not eat much for breakfast, just a bun and a bowl of porridge. Doctor Jia ate more, so he had one more bun than them.
Zhao Langzhong and others greeted Zhu Ping'an warmly, but they had many complaints about him in their hearts. If Zhu Ping'an hadn't come, how could they have dealt with breakfast like this? Moreover, asking Liaodong's top chef Wang to make buns and porridge was simply a waste of talent.
I didn’t know how to cherish it in the past, now I really miss Chef Wang’s tiger soup and bird’s nest porridge for breakfast...
What is this millet porridge? In the past, rice porridge had to be yellow, white and purple. What is this...
Zhao Langzhong and others were filled with resentment. The meat buns and porridge tasted like wax. They thought they were eating a meat bun and drinking a bowl of porridge just for show and forcing it into their stomachs.
But Zhu Pingan is not like that.
In Zhu Ping'an's opinion, the buns made by the Taicang chef are simply amazing. Each bun is like a work of art, neatly sized, white in color, and soft in texture, like chrysanthemum buds about to bloom, very pleasing to the eyes. After taking a bite, the taste is as good as the modern Qiangfeng buns, and it also tastes like some Goubuli buns. The meat filling is delicious, and when you bite it, it is oily, fragrant and not greasy, which makes Zhu Ping'an unable to stop eating.
So, Zhu Ping'an once again became a glutton. He ate five meat buns and drank two bowls of porridge. Only then did he stop, feeling that he was bloated, and felt that he was still not satisfied.
What a good-for-nothing who has never seen the world!
Doctor Zhao and the others showed no emotion on the surface, but they despised Zhu Ping'an in their hearts.
After breakfast, Zhu Ping'an followed everyone to Taicang's top leader Zhang Guanku. When they arrived, there was a breakfast on Zhang Guanku's desk, which was also steamed buns and rice porridge. However, Zhang Guanku was busy sorting files and had no time to eat.
"Oh, Zihou is here. Come and sit down. Someone, bring tea. I'll sort out the files on hand first."
Hearing the greetings from Zhu Ping'an and others, Zhang Guanku raised his head from the table belatedly, looked at Zhu Ping'an with an apologetic smile, and ordered someone to serve tea.
"Seeing that Lord Zhang is so diligent in his work that he doesn't even have time to eat breakfast, Ping An feels really ashamed. I must take Lord Zhang as an example and be diligent in my work." Zhu Ping An bowed and complimented.
"No, no, it's just a response, not like what Zihou said. Well, OK, I've finished this volume. Haha, I finally didn't miss Zihou's inspection of Taicang's account books and ledgers today..."
Zhang Guanku shook his head and smiled modestly, but he kept moving his hands and soon finished organizing the files in his hands.
"Oh, yes, today we should check the account books of Taicang for the past three years." Zhu Ping'an touched his head, smiled naively, and then bowed to Zhang Guanku, Jia Langzhong, Zhao Langzhong and others to thank them one by one, "Thank you, Lord Zhang and all the others for your cooperation and support for Ping'an's inspection. If it weren't for the support of Lord Zhang and all the others, Ping'an would not know what to do."
"Zihou, why should you be polite to us? This is our job." Doctor Jia said with a smile.
"that is."
Doctor Zhao and others also echoed.
"These are the files and books I handled this year, totaling 128 volumes." Zhang Guanku stood up, put the file he had just sorted out in a wooden box next to the table, and said to Zhu Ping'an.
"so much... ... "
Zhu Ping'an looked at the box full of books and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. His eyes were wide open and his mouth was wide open, looking like a typical man who had eaten a lot.
Seeing this, Zhang Guanku and others couldn't help but smile knowingly, as if they had not expected it.
"Haha, Zihou, these are only the account books I handled. They are all large amounts, and they are only for this year. As for smaller amounts, they are several times more than this. In addition, the account books of previous years are all sealed and archived in the archive room."
Zhang Guanku looked at Zhu Ping'an and reminded him with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an was even more "shocked" and stood there like a half-piece of wood, staring blankly at the box of account books on the ground... ... as if he couldn't believe his ears.
When Doctor Jia and the others saw this, their smiles became even brighter.
