Across the Market

Chapter 127

"Although my elder brother doesn't like to laugh, he's not a jackal. What are you afraid of? He came to you because he wanted to ask you something. You don't have to be so afraid of him. He is very nice." Xie Yi deliberately threatened her. After speaking, he put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her forward.

Zhu Fucai didn't want to talk to him, she originally thought that Xie Yi was looking for her at this time just to avoid other people telling her about opening a restaurant in the capital, but she didn't expect that it was the eldest son of the Xie family who was looking for her.The eldest son of the Xie family is no easier to get along with than the third son of Xie. That person looks like a man with a deep city and a tight tongue. What if he says something wrong and offends the old man?
At this time, Zhu Fu regretted that it was too late, so he could only wrinkle his face and said very dissatisfied: "You remember it, don't ask me to cook for you next time!"

Xie Yi didn't speak, but just pushed Zhu Fu to Xie Tong's room. When he reached the door, he raised his hand and knocked on the door, and there was a deep voice from inside.

Pushing open the door, Xie Yi strode in, not forgetting to hold Zhu Fu by his hand.

The room is very simple, except for a bed, there is only a long table and a few benches.At this time, the person sitting behind the long desk put down his pen and raised his head slightly, with a tired look on his face.

"Miss Zhu, please sit down." Xie Tong stood up and led Zhu Fu to sit on a bench beside him.

Taking advantage of Xie Tong not paying attention, Zhu Fu glared at Xie Yi again, then turned his head and forced a smile to Xie Tong, and then gently sat down on the side.

Xie Tong winked at Xie Yi, Xie Yi nodded, turned around and closed the door.

"I've been in Huzhou for the past few days, and I've been hearing from Zizhan that Ms. Zhu is a superb cook. I'm so lucky to be able to eat the dishes cooked by Ms. Zhu today." There was a smile on his deep and handsome face, and the corners of his lips curled slightly. , with a tall and straight body standing upright, he looked down and saw a trace of embarrassment flashing across Zhu Fu's face, and sat calmly not far from Zhu Fu.

Zhu Fu said modestly: "Young Master Xie is absurd, I can only cook some home-cooked dishes, how can I compare with the chefs in your mansion." She quietly raised her eyes and glanced at Xie Tong, seeing the expression on his face There was nothing wrong, he breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, "It must be that Mr. Xie eats a lot of good things, so he thinks the simple food I cook is delicious."

Xie Tongdao: "Zizhan is right. Ms. Zhu is indeed very good at cooking." After thinking about it, she stopped going around in circles and asked directly, "I don't know who Miss Zhu learned from?"

Zhu Fu secretly blamed this person for taking too much care, but the smile on her face was just right. She lowered her head and replied, "It's just home-cooked food. It's so ordinary that it can't be more ordinary. Why do I need to learn from a teacher? It's all my own food in my daily life. Thinking about it, I made Mr. Xie a joke."

The room suddenly fell silent for a while, Xie Tong's dark and deep eyes kept glued to Zhu Fu's face, as if he wanted to see if she was lying.

Seeing this, Xie Yi came over and pushed Zhu Fu, "Isn't there a chef in the Jingbin Building?"

Zhu Fu nodded: "Chef Wei? He has excellent cooking skills, but he doesn't talk much, and he usually doesn't talk to me on weekdays."

"Really?" Xie Yi was a little surprised, "However, I find it very strange, with him here, how could there be a place for you in Jingbin Building."

Zhu Fu gave him a hard look, seeing that the two brothers were silent, she got up and said, "I'm going home."

Xie Tong also straightened up slowly: "Miss Zhu, it's getting late, it's not safe for you to walk alone, I'll take you to the door." Without waiting for Zhu Fu to agree, he just walked towards the door. The tall and stalwart figure was stretched long by the light and projected on the ground, Zhu Fu stared blankly at the shadow, but there was nothing he could do.

Zhu Fu rolled his eyes towards the sky, and when he turned around and saw Xie Yi smiling gloatingly, she raised her foot and shoveled it, kicking Xie Yi so much that he hugged his leg and screamed.

The night was already deep, and the wind was blowing again. There was no snow today, and the dark night sky was inlaid with countless stars. Looking around, the lights of thousands of houses were dimly lit, but it was a special scene.

Just when he was about to leave the door of the inn, there was a gust of wind roaring outside, Zhu Fu couldn't help shivering.

Xie Tong looked back and saw that Zhu Fu was wearing thin clothes, so he took off the fox fur cloak he was wearing, handed it to Zhu Fu and said: "The night is dark and the weather is very cold, Miss Zhu put it on first."

Zhu Fu politely refused: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, but I don't have the habit of wearing other people's clothes."

Xie Tong was stunned, but nodded slightly, but he didn't continue walking, but asked Zhu Fu to wait for him for a while, and then he went into the inn.

When he came out again, Xie Tong was followed by a middle-aged man in coarse clothes. The man was holding a whip in his hand. He followed behind Xie Tong with a smile on his face and said courteously: "Mr. Xie, you Stay here with this girl for a while, the carriage is not far away, I'll hurry."

Xie Tong didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Zhu Fu became more and more embarrassed, seeing Xie Tong turned and entered the inn, she had no choice but to follow.

Xie Tong found a seat by the window and sat down, asked the waiter for a pot of tea and a few plates of dim sum, then looked at Zhu Fu who was sitting opposite and said, "I heard from Zizhan that Miss Zhu intends to open her dim sum shop to Go to the provincial capital?"

Zhu Fuying said, "That's what I mean, but right now, I don't have the confidence and courage."

"How do you say it?" Xie Tong felt that the girl in front of him had something interesting to say, so he was willing to say a few more words to her.

Zhu Fu said: "The technology is immature, the varieties are too single, and I haven't done any market research. If I open a shop rashly, what if I lose money? I never fight unprepared battles, and I don't Trading at a loss."

Xiao Er came over with tea and snacks, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, please use your tea and snacks slowly."

Xie Tong poured a cup of tea for Zhu Fu himself, and then pushed the dim sum to Zhu Fu: "Miss Zhu also try the tea and dim sum here, what do you think?"

Zhu Fu picked up the tea and smelled it, then took a bite of another piece of pastry, then put it down without taking another bite.

Xie Tong didn't wait for Zhu Fu's answer, and said directly: "Looking at Miss Zhu's reaction, she should be dissatisfied."
