C31 Great General Definitely Did It on Purpose

Pei Hongqing did not expect the man in black on the second floor to invite them to the second floor. He glanced worriedly at the man who was still sitting calmly on the second floor and the mass of white fur on his legs. "Xiao Wan, Grandma is getting old, it's still difficult for her to climb the stairs. If you want to go to the second floor with this little brother, you have to go by yourself."

Seeing him say this, Qin Zhou, who was afraid that he wouldn't be able to complete his master's orders, quickly suggested, "Old man, I can carry you up."

Pei Hongqing rejected him immediately, "No no, how could I dare to bother you? Besides, if anything happens to you, my old bones might be broken. Little brother, you'd better ask my granddaughter if she's going to the second floor." After he finished speaking, he lightly coughed, and glanced at Yun Shu.

If Pei Hongqing didn't go to the second floor, then naturally, as her subordinate, she wouldn't go either. Yun Shu nodded her head with a slightly embarrassed look and smiled, "I'm still worried about leaving A'Ma here alone … I'll have to trouble young master to thank your young master for his good intentions on behalf of me. "

The Qin Province was somewhat disappointed, but it still nodded expressionlessly. It turned around and went upstairs. However, just as he went back to explain the situation, the man who was originally playing with the cat hugged the cat and stood up. He looked towards the direction of the old and young. "Since that's the case, let's go." With that, he walked towards the staircase.

The Qin Province was frightened by their master's words and actions of leaving just now. After recovering from his shock, he immediately followed her. However, his heart was still full of doubts. Finally, on the last flight of stairs, he asked, "Young master, please forgive this subordinate's bluntness. That lady's beauty is not enough to match yours. Why would you …"

The man turned his head to look at him with a smile, passing the little fat cat onto his hand, gesturing for him to shut up: "I have my own considerations, you keep an eye on Little Treasure, don't let it run around again."

When the two were still two or three steps away from the old couple, the old man covered his nose and sneezed, then turned towards them.

When Pei Hongqing's gaze fell upon the cat in Qin Zhou's arms, he immediately covered his nose as he stood up and took two steps back.

Only then did Yun Shu retract her gaze from the interior arrangements of Yi Fang Pavilion. She turned her head to look at Pei Hongqing, who had suddenly left her seat. "Grandma, what's wrong?" Just as she finished asking, she caught a glimpse of the man who had unknowingly walked to the empty seat behind her.

Surprised, she turned her head and looked at the man who had a gentle smile on his face. She was about to say something when she was pulled out of her seat by Pei Hongqing, who was leaning on his walking stick.

Pei Hongqing: "Could you please keep your cat away from us? I'm allergic to cat hair. "

"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect to alarm the old man." After saying that, he turned his head and motioned for the Qin Province to retreat to the side.

The Qin Province could not help but worry for the safety of their master. "Young Master …"

"Move aside." The man's tone was gentle, but the Qin Province had no choice but to do as the man said.

When Pei Hongqing saw that the cat had been carried far away, he returned to his seat with some lingering fear. However, he did not return to his seat. Instead, he snatched Yun Shu's seat and sat down. In this way, the seats between the two were cleverly separated.

In order to make it convenient for the guests to watch the competition after, there were only three chairs arranged at each table, with one for each side. As for the previous one, which was the one that Pei Hongqing was sitting on, it was placed right next to the stage. Pei Hongqing smiled and said, "Sit down. What are you all standing there for?"

Yun Shu glanced at the man standing opposite her, gave an apologetic smile, and took the initiative to sit down.

She finally understood that General Pei must have intentionally stolen her chair, and had purposely moved it between her and the Young Master earlier. She even started to suspect that Pei Hongqing's cat hair allergy was just an excuse to "switch seats" with her.

However, what she couldn't understand was that she was a man in Pei Hongqing's eyes. Why did Pei Hongqing want to stop her from having any contact with this young master?

General Pei's childish behavior resembled that of a young man who was jealous of his beloved … As she thought of this in her mind, she couldn't help but find it funny. However, after a moment, her smile froze.

How could she have forgotten the rumor that General Pei liked men …

Thinking up to here, Yun Shu could not help but be shocked. When she looked at Pei Hongqing, her expression changed several times.

"Is the girl not feeling well? If young lady does not mind, this humble one can take your pulse. " the man opposite her asked her gently.

However, before Yun Shu could say anything, Pei Hongqing answered on her behalf, "Little brother, our Little Wan hasn't even gotten married yet, how can you let an unfamiliar man touch your hand?"

Yun Shu, "?!" She quickly poured herself a cup of hot tea to calm her nerves.

She only regained her composure after taking a sip of tea. She raised her eyes and smiled at the man, "I'm fine. Many thanks for Young Master's concern."

The smile in the man's eyes became even wider. "So this is the lady's name. Is she a gentle Wan or some other word?"

Yun Shu gently placed the teacup down. "It's a coiffure."

"Xiao Wan, what a nice name. I think. " With that, the man observed the expression on her face with a smile.

For some unknown reason, Yun Shu felt like she had been teased, but those two words were clearly the other party's name. She was just about to put away her confused expression when Pei Hongqing's hand that was holding the teapot loosened.

Fortunately, the man's reaction was quick and the tea did not splatter on his clothes. However, a portion of the tea splattered on the back of his hand.

Pei Hongqing pretended to be extremely apologetic as she took out a plain handkerchief and handed it over to him. "I'm sorry, little brother. It's all my fault that my hands are too useless. I can't even lift a teapot."

"It's fine, as long as the elder isn't scalded." As he spoke, the man took the handkerchief and wiped the water off the back of his hand.

The man knew that his frivolous words just now were something that this elder couldn't get used to. Afterwards, when he chatted with this old man and this young man from time to time, he couldn't help but restrain himself a little.

It was not until Boss Yan came down from the second floor that he announced that those who wanted to participate in the selection competition could begin their registration. The elders sitting next to him did not seem to have any more accidents, such as knocking down the water in the teapot.

Immediately, quite a number of people from the Yifang Pavilion, decorated with colorful lanterns, left their seats. An hour later, when the beautiful woman in her thirties on the stage was about to announce the end of the registration, a sweet and gentle female voice came from the second floor, "May Pavilion Master wait a moment."

Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw that Hua Kui had changed into a light, watery red dress that was even lighter than when they were on patrol. He supported himself on the railing as he walked down the stairs, "Pavilion Master previously told Ruyu and the others that the pavilion ladies can participate in this selection, is what Pavilion Master said true?"

Boss Yan smiled and nodded at her, "Of course. If Miss Ruyu wishes to participate, please come and register and pay the entrance fee."

Ruyu's lips curled up into a smile. She turned her head and used her eyes to signal the little girl behind her to take the exquisite wooden box that she was carrying with her.

The young lady placed the small wooden box on the table next to the registration form, opened it and pushed it in front of Boss Yan. Boss Yan glanced at the box for a moment before closing it. He then handed over the brush in his hand to the little girl, asking her to write down a name like jade on the registration form.

After the young lady put down her brush, Boss Yan announced the start of the competition. The ladies who were not participating in the competition in the pavilion each followed one competitor back to their original seats.

"For the following three rounds, you can participate in the first and second rounds by yourself, or you can send someone to participate in it for you, but for the third round, you can only register to participate in the competition. For the next three rounds, you can participate in the first and second rounds by yourself, or you can send someone to participate in it for you, but for the third round, you can only participate in the registration.

With that, Boss Yan continued, "The first round will depend on whether or not the participants are sensitive enough to food. After that, six dishes will be served simultaneously. The young ladies serving by the contestants' sides will then serve these six dishes to everyone for tasting. After tasting, please write down the most popular dish on the Xuan paper and write down your names on the Xuan paper. "

When Boss Yan, who was standing in the middle of the arena, said this, six muscular men carried a table and walked up to the arena. They then placed the tables at the front of the arena.

Boss Yan continued, "Afterwards, the ladies will fold the paper with the answers and send it to me. After receiving your answers, I will randomly choose fifty people other than the contestants to taste the six dishes. After tasting, I will invite the fifty people who are lined up here to take a rose and place in front of your favorite dishes. If the contestant happens to write the answer to the dish with the highest number of moon beauties, then the first round will be the winner and the next round will be the winner. "

While Boss Yan was explaining the rules of the first round, the six dishes were also served to the six tables in the arena. They were: Mab Tofu, Chicken Chicken with rouge, East Slope Meat, Lion's Head, Dong An Chicken, and West Lake Jellyfish.
