Legend of Qingling Dance

Chapter 56

I don't know how the two planned it.

Anyway, in the evening, when Qing Ningfang returned home, he saw smoke and flames in the backyard of the Zhu family next door.

Qing Ning turned pale with fright, rushed into Zhu's yard in a hurry, and shouted: "Mr. Bai! Mr. Yue!"

If Zhu's house caught fire, the fire would surely spread.

It must be stopped quickly!

However, she shouted for a long time, but no one answered.

Qing Ning thought for a while, took a bucket of water from the well in the front yard, and ran into the middle room.

"Cough, cough, cough..." As soon as she entered, she saw Xiaobai and Mr. Tongli running out of the backyard covered in smoky tears.

Xiaobai is holding a spatula, and Mr. Tongli is holding a fire stick.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiaobai waved the spatula twice: "I'm going to fry two dishes, so I set the cooker on fire."

"It's okay, it's okay. Miss Liang, get out quickly, don't choke you." Mr. Tongli also said hastily.

Seeing the situation between the two of them, Qing Ning nodded confusedly: "Okay, you should be careful."

She went back to her yard, and just took a small dustpan to choose leeks. After a while, she heard a loud "bang", and the Zhu's house next door burst into flames again!
"Brush!" Immediately afterwards, two figures rushed to the roof, and an icy blue rain curtain covered it, and the flames were instantly extinguished.

Bursts of choking smoke filled the air from the next door!

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiaobai forced a smile: "It's lit again."

"It's okay, it's okay." Mr. Tongli was very proud: "This time the extinguishment is really timely."

"Oh." Qing Ning nodded dumbfounded.

I don’t know what kind of exquisite dishes these two people are cooking, but in the past two days, they have been causing some weird things every day.

Either there was a sudden loud noise, or there was a sudden explosion of fireworks.

So after two days like this, Qing Ning was no longer surprised.

Speaking of them, after she cured Xiaobai that day, two days later, Xiaobai sent 1 taels of silver bills, saying it was a consultation fee.

The bank notes were exchanged by Linghui Yinzhuang under the name of Sima Commercial Bank, so the reputation is naturally excellent.

But Mr. Tongli thought it was too little, he repeatedly shouted that he would get 80 taels, and said that Xiaobai's move was too shabby.

This Mr. Tongli is a man of the hour in Xijing.

He is also famous for his poems and talents, and he is known for his generosity and generosity among thousands of flowers.

However, the name is very loud, but it is not very pleasant.

His friend, Xiaobai, is not well-known, but it can be seen that he is also an amazing person.

It's just that the origin of the identity is unknown.

It is really abnormal for such a person to live in this dilapidated Jiucheng Street all day long.

What's more, the consultation fee is really outrageous.

Could it be that he is a powerful thief?
Being arrested, so, hiding here?
Then this money could not be said to be stolen money.

Qing Ning was suspicious.

Since the death of her parents, Qing Ning has been living a life quietly according to her master, experiencing all kinds of cold and warm, always holding the idea of ​​living safely, being careful in everything and everywhere.

So how dare she ask for it: "It's decided. I just want to see Xue Po, no consultation fee is required."

Seeing Qing Ning's insistence on not wanting it, Xiao Bai said, "This is the price of a nine-inch gold needle. You can't lose your father's name."

Qing Ning understood what he meant, and shook his head and refused: "When my father was alive, he often provided free medical treatment. In the early years, my family even opened a cheap medical center. They only charged for medicines, not consultation fees."

Xiaobai can't think about it, so he can talk about it.Qing Ning finally took 500 taels, and said in an embarrassing tone, "It was decided that I would not accept it. It's just that I owed them 500 taels of silver and wrote an IOU. I don't know when they will come to ask for it."

Xiaobai's face froze immediately.

He "coughed", with embarrassment appearing on his face.For a while I didn't know what to say.

In recent days, the two have been working hard on cooking.

Although the turmoil was a headache, Qing Ning felt much more at ease.

If it is really a thief who is on the run, he will not dare to act in such a high-profile manner.

That evening, Qing Ning was cooking, when he looked up, he saw two pieces of roof tiles had been removed, and Xiao Bai and Young Master Tong Li were lying on the roof looking down from the top.

Qing Ning was startled, and said in shock: "What are you two doing?"

Xiaobai and Mr. Tongli came down from the roof.

Xiaobai was carrying two catties of beef, while Mr. Tongli was holding a handful of garlic sprouts.

"Come over and observe." Xiaobai's expression remained unchanged.

"Let's learn some cooking skills." Mr. Tongli said that his skin was much thicker.

Qing Ning looked at the two of them, confused: "What do you mean? Why can't I understand?"

So Xiaobai said simply: "I don't know how to do it, come and learn."

"Ah?" Qing Ning was stunned.

"Neighbors, it's convenient." Mr. Tongli smiled, his peach blossom eyes were particularly charming.

Qing Ning took the dishes from their hands in a daze: "My cooking skills are also ordinary, but I just cook them and eat them."

Xiaobai immediately said: "It's okay, just don't get confused."

Mr. Tongli stepped on him quickly: "Miss Liang, there is no need to be modest. It smells very good. We came here following the fragrance."

After all, he glanced at Xiao Bai proudly.

Qing Ning looked at Xiaobai, then at Young Master Tongli, with a very perplexed face: "Then just take a look, it's actually very simple."

Taking advantage of Qing Ning's inattention, Mr. Tong Li stepped on Xiao Bai's foot again, and whispered: "Learn more. You are studying with Mr. Cen, and you talk so hard?"

But Qing Ning soon discovered that they really came to learn cooking skills.

Because, as soon as Qing Ning started to prepare the beef, they all took out a book and took notes while watching.

Both of them wrote very beautifully and memorized very carefully.

Qing Ning took a sneak peek and saw that Xiaobai wrote in detail: "Add fire to the pot, and the fire is about eight minutes. Add two and a half spoons of rapeseed oil, and wait for the oil to heat up. It is better to boil slightly. Add green onion and ginger Half the money, stop for a quarter of a ninetyth. Add the beef, stir fry about 35 times, use half the force..."

The numbers are extremely accurate, and Qing Ning can't help but stare dumbfounded.

Looking at Mr. Tongli again, I saw that he wrote: "Add fire and wait for the oil to heat up, and the oil will boil. The onion and ginger are all ready to increase the aroma and warm the stomach. The beef is fragrant and delicious, regardless of the meat. It doesn't matter how expensive the meat is. Once it is fried, it will be doubled." Stir-fry, three-fry and then four-fry. Five-fry and six-fry, seven-fry and eight-fry. If the color and taste are good, the spatula must be used frequently..." It is actually a five-character ancient style.

This scene is extremely funny.

Qing Ning didn't know what tricks they were making, so he reminded helplessly: "If you two want to learn, you can't rely on memorization like this. You have to do it yourself and master the tricks in actual combat."

"It's reasonable. It's just that our talents are quite poor, and we may not have seen the way. I hope Miss Liang will give me some pointers."

Xiaobai is kind and kind, and his words now sound sincere.

"Indeed, this is a very complicated knowledge." Yue Wenhuan also sighed.

The next day, they came again.

This time I brought a large basket full of vegetables.

But they actually don't have much talent for cooking.Although I recite it diligently, I often have to ask for advice three or five times before I can distinguish the differences between various vegetables.

Sometimes Qingning had to demonstrate for them several times before they could understand.

Although they are slow learners, they have a sincere attitude towards learning.

Especially Xiaobai, who studies very seriously and is good at asking questions at the same time.

For example: "Miss Liang used the back of the knife on the right side when she patted Jiang just now, but now she is using the left side. Is there any trick?"

Qing Ning: "..."

Another example: "Yesterday, Ms. Liang stir-fried vegetables nine times before adding salt, but today she stir-fried them twelve times. Can you tell me the reason?"

Qing Ning: "..."

I often draw inferences from one instance, even though what I said is not on the point.

It's just that for some reason, Mr. Tongli has to step on him every time, so that he can summon up his energy to ask questions.

After asking, he would often stare at Mr. Tongli expressionlessly.

Only Mr. Tongli was always smiling, blinking his beautiful eyes from time to time, he was extremely busy.

So another day passed, and they said, now that they had gotten a glimpse of the door, they could start working in the kitchen.

But this seems to be the beginning of disaster.
