"Dr. Zhang, please judge for me. How can someone like Ah Liu come home and just arrest me and run away without thinking..."
Mr. Song didn't notice that he had described Zhang Garden as his home. He almost cried and complained. He was frightened when he saw Ah Liu trick Fang Qing and frightened him until his face turned blue. But when it was his turn to be caught by Ah Liu and fly over the eaves and walls, he swore in his heart that he would never envy any knights again in his life.
Those omnipotent knights in the legends are all fake. No one has ever said that flying over eaves and walking on walls is so scary!
"Just because that consumptive fellow posted a notice, saying he wanted to recruit a cook, and a famous one at that, and refused to accept anyone else, Ah Liu came back and dragged me over to trick people into opening the door... Poor me, I became a prop to trick people into opening the door! With Ah Liu's ability, not to mention that the wall of the yard was not very high, he could easily jump over it even if the wall was high. Why did he drag me with him!"
The next moment, Zhang Shou heard Ah Liu's faint voice: "Because the young master said he would invite him."
Mr. Song was speechless. Seeing Ah Liu holding the obviously skinny and weak man with a reed stick, he could only explain to Zhang Shou, who looked puzzled, "The innkeeper said that after Yang rented the small courtyard, he never left the house and seldom ate three meals a day. He was afraid that he would starve to death, but he still gave a large sum of money for board and lodging, but he complained that their cook's food was not tasty."
"So, after getting people's consent, he posted a notice, saying that he was looking for a famous chef with a generous reward. Ah Liu didn't knock on the boy's door, but the shopkeeper reminded him and came back to take me over. It's really unbelievable that I have already made it to the finals of the Imperial Chef Selection Competition, but he actually tricked me into doing such a thing!"
"So what if he's an imperial chef? He's probably just a name for nothing!" Young Master Yang Qi, who was as sharp as a reed stick, suddenly said something. For a moment, Zhang Shou was still considering whether to call a doctor to treat this person who might die at any time. Now he was stunned. This guy still had the strength to speak
He was about to speak when he saw Mr. Song angrily arguing with others: "How dare you brag? You were so weak that you couldn't even stand up before, and I had to rush to the kitchen to make you some sugar water to drink? I have seen people commit suicide and jump into the river in my life, but I have never seen anyone who forgot to eat and sleep and almost starved himself to death!"
Hearing the words "starved to death", Zhang Shou's mouth twitched. When Hong first mentioned that she had saved a student from Yuzhang Academy who had ground lenses to make telescopes and then got reported and imprisoned for talking too much after stargazing, Zhang Shou thought he was a poor nerd. Later, when he heard that his family was well-off, he realized that if you want to have hobbies these days, you really need money.
But a wealthy young man ran away from home and came to the capital. He had the money to rent an inn, but he still almost starved to death... He was truly the only one I had ever seen!
Mr. Song, who passed the imperial examination but likes to make sweet soup, Fang Qing, who can't control his mouth and always gets into trouble because of his "honesty", and now there is Lu Chaibang who is almost starving to death... Why does he always meet such weirdos!
