He entered the Space-Time Supermarket from the courtyard where he lived. Because it was night, the gate was closed again, and the people outside did not come in.
But they were guarding outside because they were obviously afraid that he would run away.
Fu Chenan sneered in his heart and went back to his room to sleep.
He slept until noon!
Fu Chenan was awakened by the door when it was pushed open: "Who!"
The relieved voice of the imperial envoy came from the door: "General Fu, I thought something was wrong with you? I knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened it..."
Unexpectedly, he was just drunk and slept late.
As long as the person didn't run away, it's fine.
Fu Chenan still looked sleepy: "Sorry, sorry, Lord Hu, I drank too much last night. I will wash up and come out soon. Please wait outside."
How could Hu Jiaying care about this? He immediately took people out again.
Not long after, Fu Chenan came out in high spirits: "Master Hu, let's go."
...
Xiao Yingchun woke up early and found that Fu Chenan had not shown up. She was very nervous: she didn't know whether the medicine she took last night was effective or not.
Is her supreme VIP client recovered? Or dead?
Xiao Yingchun was so worried, but she had no choice. She didn't even have the heart to eat breakfast.
But suddenly she thought that Fu Chenan might come at any time. Should she prepare something for him?
So Xiao Yingchun ordered a takeout of millet and pumpkin porridge and a three-fresh soup noodle. She
left the millet porridge for Fu Chenan and ate the soup himself.
After finishing the soup, Fu Chenan didn't show up, and Xiao Yingchun was worried.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon. Xiao Yingchun ordered a steamed egg and meat pie plus a cured meat rice and pork tripe and chicken.
She left the steamed egg and meat pie for Fu Chenan. She left
half a portion of cured meat rice and half a portion of pork tripe and chicken for Fu Chenan.
Xiao Yingchun only ate half a portion of pork tripe and chicken and half a portion of cured meat rice.
It was already three or four in the afternoon, and Fu Chenan still hadn't shown up.
Xiao Yingchun was getting restless.
It was time for dinner.
Xiao Yingchun didn't feel like ordering takeout, so she heated up the leftovers from the morning and lunch and ate them.
After she finished eating, Xiao Yingchun felt something was wrong: she had promised to order some food for Fu Chenan yesterday, but if he showed up, there would be nothing.
Xiao Yingchun also ordered a plate of steamed glutinous rice with pork ribs and a portion of stir-fried yellow beef.
The takeout arrived, but Fu Chenan still hadn't shown up.
Xiao Yingchun was getting impatient, so she simply closed the front door and sat at the small round table, waiting for Fu Chenan.
At nine o'clock in the evening, with a shout of "Welcome", Xiao Yingchun suddenly stood up and looked towards the back door.
He's here! ?
He's not dead? !
Xiao Yingchun breathed a sigh of relief!
Fu Chenan looked at Xiao Yingchun and the takeaway lunch box in front of her: "You haven't eaten yet?"
When he mentioned this, Xiao Yingchun rolled her eyes at him unhappily: "I ordered this for you."
"Thank you very much." Fu Chenan's cheeks flushed slightly, but he didn't understand why she was suddenly unhappy. He strode over, slung his long legs over, and sat down.
The steamed glutinous rice with pork ribs was a steamer, and the stir-fried yellow beef looked greasy and very tempting.
Xiao Yingchun adjusted her mood and handed him the chopsticks: "I dare not order seafood for you today, you can eat this."
"Okay." Fu Chenan agreed and began to eat heartily.
Xiao Yingchun happened to observe his situation carefully.
Not bad, the rashes on his face and neck have basically disappeared, and only a few traces remain in the most serious areas.
Fu Chenan's cheeks were bulging from eating, and being looked at by Xiao Yingchun like this, he also realized what she was worried about.
Fu Chenan swallowed the food obediently and took the initiative to explain.
"The rash has healed. I told them that the wine I drank last night was not right. I had a rash. They called a doctor and didn't dare to let me drink today."
Xiao Yingchun nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: I'm glad you're okay.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Fu Chenan ate the food in a hurry and patted his belly: "I'm full."
Xiao Yingchun smiled belatedly: "You ate two meals in one night. Are you full?"
Fu Chenan immediately denied: "How is it possible?!"
Afraid that Xiao Yingchun would not believe it, he explained: "I have been a big eater since I was a child. Almost all the money my father earned from slaughtering pigs went into my stomach."
"At that time, the neighbors next door laughed at me and called me Fu Dadu. They said that if I couldn't make money in the future, I would starve to death, let alone find a wife and raise children..."
"Later, to avoid people looking at me strangely, I only dared to eat two bowls of rice when I was out, and only until I was half full at most."
Xiao Yingchun: "...Where did all that food go?"
Fu Chenan smiled: "I practiced martial arts with my father, and it consumed a lot of energy, so I grew so big. I'm half a head taller than my father."
Xiao Yingchun finally understood and asked with concern: "Is this enough for you? If not, I'll get you something else?"
"Enough, enough!" Fu Chenan chuckled.
Tomorrow, Fu Chenan will be able to enter the capital and meet the emperor.
Then we will know how the emperor will arrange for him. After all, he will just give him an idle position, support him with a salary, but also put him in a difficult position.
Because he didn't know what the situation would be like tomorrow, he didn't dare to say that he would definitely come tomorrow.
Fu Chen'an glanced at the overflowing shelves of food. "I can't take your food out. I'll have to wait until next time."
Xiao Yingchun thought for a moment and pulled a bag of pine flower candy from the shelf. "Do you have any of these?"
Fu Chen'an glanced at the oily, paper-wrapped pine flower candy in a plastic bag. "Yes, but they're slightly different."
The rice candy they sell there doesn't use so much oil.
Xiao Yingchun shoved three bags into his hands. "Remove the plastic wrapping. The paper wrapping is inside. Eat them when you're bored."
"Tomorrow I'll get some snacks you can buy there."
They'll be so different that outsiders won't notice the difference, yet the taste will be just as good.
"Okay." Fu Chen'an smiled, obviously very happy. "Then I'll be leaving. You should get some rest early."
Xiao Yingchun nodded and specifically instructed, "I'll leave the back door open. You can come anytime you need something."
Fu Chen'an was surprised. "It's not locked at night?"
Xiao Yingchun replied affirmatively, "It's not locked at night. Anyway, no one else can get in except you."
"If you need anything, just take it. If I'm not here at night and you can't find what you want, you can leave a message at the counter."
Fu Chen'an's traditional Chinese characters were a little difficult to recognize, but there was a way. There was Baidu after all.
Facing Xiao Yingchun's brilliant smile, Fu Chen'an's eyes warmed.
He and his son had fought for Daliang, shedding blood and sweat. But the Emperor didn't reward them, but was wary of them.
He left his old father at the border and asked him to return to Beijing as a hostage.
Imperial envoy Hu Jiaying was afraid he would escape, so he arranged for many people to surround his courtyard at night.
The prefect was afraid of being convicted and imprisoned in the future, so he only dared to send maids as gifts, not even a concubine's daughter...
But this strange girl in front of him, who was clearly just a business relationship, gave him great trust!
"Thank you, Miss Xiao." Fu Chenan suppressed the heat in his heart, bowed solemnly, turned around and left.
