Chapter 7, the performance that requires collaboration cannot be ignored
As Dongfang Bubai moved in and out of these rooms, Chu Qinghe rested his chin on one hand, quietly observing Dongfang Bubai
In response to Chu Qinghe's praise, Qu Feiyan slightly raised her head with a hint of pride and said, "Indeed, I endured quite a bit of hardship to learn all of this"
After half an hour, all the medicinal powders in the room had completely disappeared
The variety and quantity of these powders are numerous; if classified solely by type, there are likely hundreds of them.
Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Dongfang Bubai raised his eyes slightly
A quarter of an hour later, amidst Qu Feiyan's busy preparations, the stone table in the courtyard was already set with a feast of delicacies
Then, leaning slightly backward, looking at the camellia tree in the sky, Chu Qinghe gently exhaled a breath
However, upon observing Chu Qinghe's reaction, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but feel a slight surprise in his heart
As Chu Qinghe entered the inner courtyard, there were some sounds coming from the kitchen, along with the rhythmic sound of chopping vegetables.
Only after the attendant placed the previously purchased items into his own room did Chu Qinghe pay the money to have the person leave
Chu Qinghe smiled slightly, appearing somewhat indifferent, and said: "The young lady's demeanor and temperament are indeed extraordinary, incomparable to that of an ordinary wealthy family, unlike the people of this Yushui City"
Chu Qinghe nodded in approval and said, "Not bad!"
After opening these medicine packets, Chu Qinghe would carefully examine each packet of powder. Once he confirmed that there were no issues, he would place it into the system backpack
Then he gently patted Qu Feiyan's little head and said, "Got it, hurry up and cook!"
After a few breaths, Chu Qinghe shook his head again
Having finished speaking, Dongfang Bubai set down the teacup in hand and stood up to walk towards another room, clearly in the process of selecting a room for future residence
Feeling the neatly arranged medicinal powders in his system backpack, Chu Qinghe smiled
I hope the visitor does not come with ill intentions! After all, this is a new house! Causing a loss of life would be quite inauspicious!
... ...
It gradually faded away after just a moment, becoming difficult to see with the naked eye
After glancing at the closed room, Qu Feiyan asked, "Young Master, who is the young lady in that room?"
Do not say that this feeling of being overly full inexplicably gives one a sense of solidity
Moments later, Chu Qinghe's expression returned to normal, and he followed up on what Dongfang Bubai had said: "So it is Miss Dongfang."
Looking at the reminder of his song, Fei Yan, Chu Qinghe smiled gently
Perhaps it is because this time Chu Qinghe is not eating alone for the first time, as he is now accompanied by Qu Feiyan and Dongfang Bubai
As the door closed, Chu Qinghe also opened the items piled at the entrance.
One hour later
However, in the face of the gold on the table, Chu Qinghe did not even glance at it and directly nodded, saying: "There are still many empty rooms at home; the young lady may choose any one at her convenience"
The door of a room is closed
In that case, rather than provoking trouble for no reason, it would be better to simply go along with the young lady's wishes
Along with the rice, there were two extra bowls.
The fragrance also wafted in.
He then asked, "Interesting, since you have no interest in money, why agree to it directly?"
Given that Qu Feiyan is so young, Chu Qinghe originally did not expect much from the food prepared by Qu Feiyan, as long as it was not inedible
I must say, this feeling of doing nothing and freely wasting time is indeed quite pleasant
However, as she walked, Qu Feiyan's gaze could not help but glance towards the room where Dongfang Bubai was at that moment
Immediately afterwards, he tidied up the ground a little, and then sent the scraps of paper into the kitchen to be used as firewood for Qu Feiyan. Only then did Chu Qinghe return to the courtyard and leisurely stroll around it as if taking a walk.
After leisurely strolling around the courtyard, Chu Qinghe returned to sit by the stone table and glanced at Dongfang Bubai's room
After a little over ten breaths, amidst Qu Feiyan's wait, the door of Dongfang Bubai was also opened
By the time the dishes on the table were all empty, Chu Qinghe felt that his stomach was somewhat bloated
Moreover, having such a stunning beauty as the young lady in the same courtyard is certainly pleasing to the eye, so why should I unnecessarily seek discomfort by refusing?
Make some preparations, as it is better to be prepared than to be caught unawares
It is indeed convenient
What remains instead are only the sheets of grass paper originally used to wrap the medicinal powder
With this question in mind, Qu Feiyan returned to the kitchen once again
It is a package of ground medicinal powder
As Jian Chuqinghe was about to leave, Dongfang Bubai softly uttered an "mm" without any intention of asking further questions
Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan first nodded in a daze.
Such beauty, yet daring to come alone to this small place and remain unscathed, surely indicates a corresponding confidence.
However, it was unexpected that Qu Feiyan's culinary skills were surprisingly good
As the delicacies entered his mouth, savoring the deliciousness of the dish, Chu Qinghe glanced at Qu Feiyan with a hint of surprise and said, "I didn't expect your culinary skills to be this good"
However, if someone were to follow Chu Qinghe at this moment and observe carefully, they would surely notice that after Chu Qinghe's movements, some areas suddenly had more powder.
It is evident that Dongfang Bubai is currently in that room
The nearby Dongfang Bubai's gaze shifted between Chu Qinghe and Qu Feiyan for a moment before also picking up the chopsticks
In response, Chu Qinghe leisurely walked outside
As the sound faded, Dongfang Bubai turned his body slightly, and his gaze once again fell upon the enormous camellia tree in the courtyard
As noon approached, Chu Qinghe, who had left earlier, returned home leisurely.
After pondering for a few moments, Chu Qinghe muttered, "Forget it, just to be safe, I should test the waters first later! Otherwise, I will always feel uncertain inside"
From the perspective of Chu Qinghe, the dishes prepared by Qu Feiyan at this moment, whether in terms of presentation or flavor, are in no way inferior to those made by the chefs in the restaurants outside
Not long after, the sound of the kitchen knife "Dun Dun" falling onto the cutting board was heard once again
If there is any disadvantage towards me, I fear there is nothing I can do about it
After Dongfang Bubai and Qu Feiyan sat down again, Chu Qinghe gently gestured and then picked up his chopsticks to start eating.
Hearing the commotion outside, Qu Feiyan, who was originally in the kitchen, also poked her head out from the kitchen.
The infamous Dongfang Bubai is well-known, and this is the first time I am encountering him. Furthermore, we will have to live together in the same courtyard from now on
It is not that Chu Qinghe does not want to refuse; after all, who would agree to let a stranger suddenly move into their home
If no precautions are taken, Chu Qinghe does not feel secure in his heart
You indeed see through it clearly
After picking up a few dishes and tasting them, I also nodded to myself in approval
Alternatively, the dishes prepared by Qu Feiyan are indeed quite delicious
As the vegetable soup was served on the table, Qu Feiyan walked to the door of Dongfang Bubai, knocked twice, and said: "Sister, it's time to come out for a meal"
Muttering to himself: "Grandfather said that Dongfang Bubai often wears a bright red robe all year round, I wonder if this young lady is more beautiful than her?"
This was, in fact, an unexpected delight for Chu Qinghe
However, that young lady is very beautiful, and her demeanor is quite different; she does not seem like an ordinary person. Young master, you should still be cautious.
This is life!
After a slight nod in response, Dongfang Bubai pondered for a few moments before speaking again: "Having not returned to this Yushui City for many years, I would like to temporarily stay with you for a while. I wonder if it would be convenient for Young Master Chu?"
After a few breaths, Dongfang Bubai looked at Chu Qinghe, and unexpectedly, there was a hint of interest in his gaze
After the figure of Chu Qinghe disappeared from sight, Dongfang Bubai could not help but smile slightly and said, "Interesting"
Thoughts seem to be tethered by certain clouds in the sky, and my mind gradually empties.
However, there was no sign of Dongfang Bubai in the courtyard
After all, having died once, Chu Qinghe is now quite cherishing of life
Along with that, Chu Qinghe's frequency of using chopsticks also inevitably increased a bit
Knowing that the opponent is the Invincible East, how can Chu Qinghe refuse
While speaking, Dongfang Bubai took out a gold ingot from his bosom and placed it on the table
What if after being rejected, Dongfang Bubai coldly laughs and gives himself a beating before asking again?
The food at this moment is particularly fragrant
After taking a sip, I felt the elegance of the tea in my mouth, gazing at the sunlight surrounding the courtyard and then looking towards the distant azure sky
Chu Qinghe responded: "Dongfang Bai, the former owner of this place, is now returning to this familiar location, wishing to stay with me for a while."
After softly murmuring a word, Chu Qinghe finally collected his thoughts. He turned to the teapot, added a bit of boiling water, and then refilled his teacup with tea.
In contrast, Chu Qinghe leisurely returned to his own room
Seeing Chu Qinghe's indifferent demeanor, Qu Feiyan curled her lips in disdain and then turned to walk towards the kitchen
After a short while, Chu Qinghe finally got up and said to Dongfang Bubai: "I still need to go out to buy some things. Miss Dongfang, please feel free to do as you wish. If the maid at home returns later, you can just ask her to prepare lunch directly."
