Chapter 260 Sweet Potato Found
Chapter 260 Sweet Potato Found
The man knocked on the door again. Ruyi wanted to open the door, but was stopped by Luo Xiaoran.
"It's a strange voice. I don't know what it's here for. I'd better go!"
squeak-
The door slowly opened, and a strange face came into view. It was a young man with ordinary looks, and the material of his clothes was not something that the villagers could afford.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Luo Xiaoran's home?"
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
"My young master invites you!"
"boom--"
Luo Xiaoran slammed the door shut without hesitation.
Are you crazy? Who is your young master? Just because he asks me to go, I have to go?
bang bang bang-
That man is knocking on the door again
"If you hit me again, I'll beat you!"
The knocking on the door stopped abruptly.
Luo Xiaoran returned to the kitchen contentedly and didn't take the matter to heart at all.
"Xiao Ran, who are you?" Qiu Niang asked her.
Luo Xiaoran took a piece of mung bean cake from the mold, put it in her mouth and tasted it. It was sweet and soft, but the taste of sesame oil covered the fragrance of mung bean. She thought to herself that next time she made it, she would replace sesame oil with corn oil.
"I don't know him, don't worry about him."
bang bang bang-
As soon as Luo Xiaoran finished speaking, there was another knock on the door.
Hey!
Does this person have some serious illness?
Luo Xiaoran slammed the table hard and rushed towards the door.
"Knock, knock, knock! What are you knocking for? Your young master doesn't even dare to tell me his name, and you still want me to meet him. How shameless he is!"
The door was opened again, and this time it was a familiar face. Luo Xiaoran's anger froze on her face.
"Yun Hu? Why is it you?"
Yun Hu heard Luo Xiaoran cursing outside the door, and wondered in his mind whether he had offended her recently. No!
"It was me, who did you think it was?"
Yun Hu was totally confused, but because Luo Xiaoran was angry, he was afraid that it would affect him, so he spoke carefully.
"Wasn't that man just now your subordinate?" Luo Xiaoran asked Yun Hu.
Yun Hu was even more confused, "Who?"
Luo Xiaoran pursed her lips and waved her hand, "It's okay, what are you doing here?"
Yunhu must have been busy with something recently, as he hasn't come to show his presence in front of Qiu Niang for a long time.
Yun Hu pointed at a bundle hanging on the saddle, winked for two seconds, and then spoke mysteriously:
"I found some sweet potatoes. I'll show them to you."
"Really?" Luo Xiaoran's mood instantly jumped up. She opened both doors to make it easier for Yun Hu to lead the horse in, and urged: "Come in! Come in!"
Yun Hu followed Luo Xiaoran to the stable to tie up the horse, secretly complaining that this little girl changed her expression faster than the weather, and that Miss Qiu Niang was gentle and quiet.
Speaking of which, I haven't seen Miss Qiu Niang for a long time. I wonder if she will still be polite and distant when she sees me?
If Luo Xiaoran knew that Yun Hu was plotting against her in his mind, not only would she not invite him to the living room as politely as she did now, she probably wouldn't even keep him for lunch.
"Hurry up and open the package and let me see it!" Luo Xiaoran continued to urge.
Seeing Luo Xiaoran's anxious look, Yun Hu hurriedly put the bag on the table, untied it in a few seconds, and revealed the things inside.
"Look, is this the sweet potato you mentioned?"
There was no need to pick it up and look at it. As soon as the package was opened and a glance was taken, Luo Xiaoran was sure that this thing was sweet potato.
"That's right!"
Luo Xiaoran didn't care about the soil on it at all. She couldn't help but touch it. "It's sweet potato! Where did you find it?"
She hadn't eaten this thing since the end of the world! In addition, she hadn't seen sweet potatoes for four years in the ancient year!
"Your words last time reminded me that sweet potatoes might not be produced in Daliang, so I sent people to the border to inquire.
Finally, my men found this item in Nanman, and it completely matches the picture you drew. As soon as I got it, I came to you to confirm it!"
Luo Xiaoran grinned and laughed.
"Okay, Yunhu! You are really efficient! Stay for lunch today, and I will cook these sweet potatoes in the simplest way."
The simplest way?
Yun Hu didn't understand what Luo Xiaoran meant at first, until he saw Luo Xiaoran throw the sweet potatoes directly into the burning stove, then he understood what the word "simple" meant.
"Just let the sweet potatoes burn in the fire?" Yun Hu couldn't help asking.
"Hmm!" Luo Xiaoran nodded. "The sweet potatoes are roasting below and the vegetables are stewing above. It's very convenient to use one fire for two purposes."
Yun Hu said that he didn't understand, but was greatly shocked. He didn't dare to say anything and just waited for Luo Xiaoran's roasted sweet potatoes to be served. He would say anything after tasting them.
"Oh, right!" Luo Xiaoran suddenly said, "You said you came directly to see me. Does His Royal Highness Prince Yan know about this?"
Yun Hu was stunned, not knowing why Luo Xiaoran asked this, but he still answered truthfully:
"I haven't reported this to the master yet. I want to wait until you confirm that this thing is indeed a sweet potato before reporting back."
"You don't know about Chen'er's affairs either?"
Chen'er's matter? What's Chen'er's matter? Yun Hu was a little confused, feeling that he had missed something important.
"I've been busy with some things that my master has asked me to do recently, and I don't know about Chen'er's situation. Isn't Chen'er your brother? What happened to him? By the way, I don't think I saw him today?"
Yun Hu turned his head around and said with certainty, "I really didn't see him."
Luo Xiaoran's voice suddenly sank.
"Chen'er is living in Prince Yan's Mansion now. You will know once you go there."
"profound."
Yun Hu answered calmly on the surface, but he was very curious in his heart. However, since Luo Xiaoran didn't want to continue talking, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
"You came just in time. I made dried persimmon cakes a few days ago and mung bean cakes today. Can you bring some to Prince Yan's Mansion for Chen'er?"
"Why don't you send it over yourself?" The master shouldn't turn Xiao Ran away, right?
"Due to some complicated reasons, I can't get too close to Chen'er, or even to Prince Yan's Mansion. The fact that you came to see me today may have been spotted by spies."
Speaking of spies, Luo Xiaoran felt a little annoyed.
"Spy? What spy?"
Yun Hu felt like a fool now. How come he didn't know anything?
"Maybe it's Princess Qingyi's spy, maybe it's An Luhai's spy, maybe there is no spy, I can't say for sure." Luo Xiaoran stared at the gate and said sinisterly.
Yun Hu felt even more dizzy.
"Anyway, remember, even if you come to see me, you'd better disguise yourself and don't let anyone know that you are King Yan's man. I am now..."
Before Luo Xiaoran could finish her words, the door of Luo's house was knocked again.
Luo Xiaoran asked Yun Hu to wait for her in the living room while she went to open the door.
The face behind the door was the same stranger from this morning.
Luo Xiaoran closed the door and sent him away as usual. Seeing this, the man hurriedly spoke:
"Hey! Miss Luo, don't close the door! My young master has condescended to come and see you!"
