Jiang Shangxian finished cooking with a worried look on his face and walked forward with the waiter. His three disciples looked at each other behind him. Finally, Wang Wan scratched his chubby cheek and asked Zhou Ying solemnly, "Second Brother, didn't you say that our master's mind was wandering because of Cui Shaoqing? Why doesn't the master seem happy that Cui Shaoqing is here?"

Although Li Meng didn't say anything, he also looked at Zhou Ying with a questioning look.

Zhou Ying, who was doubted by his fellow apprentices, remained confident. He puffed out his skinny, protruding chicken chest and said, "You said a few words to the young lady? What do you know? Cui Shaoqing hasn't been here for so long, so what's wrong with our master being upset? Besides, the master hasn't been upset yet!"

At the end of his speech, he felt that he was absolutely right and understood the young lady's thoughts so well. He raised his head confidently and said, "Just listen to me, you won't go wrong!"

In the box, Jiang Shangxian was still sitting at her workstation. She had originally complained about this position, but after Li Xueyan came, she felt that this position was really good. People should keep a distance from each other to facilitate communication.

"This new dish is quite good. The deer tendons are soft and tender, and onions are added when stir-frying?" A good gourmet can taste the tricks even if he can't cook it himself.

"Shaoqing's tongue is indeed sharp. It's fried in oil with onions, ginger, and coriander. The deer tendon has a fishy smell. It's better to remove it."

"Why did you add abalone and scallops? The fusion of these delicacies from land and sea really makes the flavor even better."

"I just happened to have some so I added it in to try." Jiang Shangxian didn't dare to say that he did this because he saw that you Tang people like dishes with expensive and exaggerated ingredients?

Cui Bianxu ate a round and suddenly asked, "Can you cook cat food?"

Jiang Shangxian was looking at his phone on the subway. "Shaoqing, has your appetite changed significantly recently?"

"This sir...ahem, I recently got a cat. It doesn't like to eat much and is very skinny." Cui Bian looked Jiang Shangxian up and down as he spoke. This young lady seemed to have a good appetite. It had only been a few days since he last saw her, and she seemed to have become a little plumper.

Jiang Shangxian hadn't expected someone like him to keep a cat. He suddenly found it a little funny, and his expression relaxed a little. After thinking seriously for a while, he asked, "What did Shaoqing feed it?"

You need to first figure out whether it is picky eating or illness.

"It will naturally eat whatever I eat." Cui Bian said as a matter of course. In the entire Cui Mansion, his food was the best, and his cat was naturally at the same level as him - top-notch.

Jiang Shangxian had never actually owned a cat. Having a pet meant taking responsibility for its life. As a recent graduate, she couldn't even support herself, so of course she wouldn't consider getting one. She could only desperately recall the cat-making videos she'd seen: "Shaoqing, why don't you have someone chop up pumpkin, chicken breast, pork liver, pork tenderloin, duck breast, shrimp, egg yolk, cabbage, and fish into a paste, mix them together, and steam it for the cat to eat?"

Cui Bianxu took note of everything she said and planned to have someone try making it when he got home. He didn't have to do it himself, so he didn't mind the trouble at all. "How about mutton?"

"I don't know." Jiang Shangxian shook her head honestly. She really couldn't remember. "Young Master, why don't you give it a try?"

"kindness."

After asking the question, Cui Bianxu started eating again. Now, this has become Jiang Shangxian's favorite part. It is like a real-life eating broadcast, very real, and without vomiting. Every time after watching Cui Bianxu eating, she can drink an extra bowl when she eats her work meal!

After Operation CD was over, Cui Bianxu wiped the corner of his mouth and began to get to the point: "Do you remember the disappearance of Zhao from the Li family?"

"Did Mr. Zhao say that? Li Zuocheng's sister-in-law?" Hey, how could she forget something like this! Please, she doesn't have a cell phone! She just eats gossip every day!

She had heard more than just this. Lexianlou was a well-informed place. "I heard that the Li family still hasn't found the person?"

"Well, in Chang'an City, except for the Daming Palace, we have searched Chang'an County, Dali Temple, and Li family several times." Cui Bianxu didn't find it strange that she knew something.

"Didn't the Jinwu Guards help look for her? I heard that Madam Li had ascended to heaven." This is the most common explanation for Madam Li's disappearance.

As for another slightly less popular version, it is that Madam Li disliked the fact that Li Zhubu was old and didn't like to take a bath, so she ran away with someone else.

Jiang Shangxian disagreed with this claim. Why would someone slander a woman's innocence without any evidence? What if she ran into a bad guy? What if the couple had a quarrel and she secretly returned to her husband's home while he was away on business?

Well, this possibility is not great. If it causes a lot of trouble, even if Zhao herself is unwilling to go home, her parents will normally come out and say that the girl is at home!

"Do you believe such nonsense as ascension?" Cui Bianxu scoffed. He pulled a compass from his sleeve, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards her. "It looks quite detailed. Take it."

Jiang Shangxian had never thought that he would have a second chance to receive a gift. He waved his hands in surprise and said, "Shaoqing, I don't accept gifts without merit. This, this..."

Last time, they sent me a sleeve arrow, which made me talk nonsense. This time, I didn’t even see what they sent me, so what are they going to make me do next?

She is a cow or a horse, not a chicken or a duck, and she cannot sell herself.

Cui Bianxu raised his eyelids, expressionless, as if he were discussing a trivial matter: "This thing is made of Yin sandalwood. It will give you a cool feeling when you hold it in your hand. You are busy in the kitchen every day, so it is perfect for you."

Just now at Li's house, seeing that he was quite interested in this thing, Li Zhong decided to give it to him.

This guy is quite interesting. He can dispose of his stepmother's things at will.

Jiang Shangxian pursed her lips and didn't dare to take it. She had never heard of Yin Tan or Yin Tan. She had only heard of Xiaolongnu's cold jade bed, which was very cool.

Seeing that she didn't take it, Cui Bianxu didn't take it back either. He started talking about the Li family's case: "Achieving enlightenment is nonsense. Zhao's acquisition of the house doesn't look like she's devoted to practicing Taoism at all. If someone like her can also achieve enlightenment, I'm afraid the Taoist priests will be so angry that they'll block the moat tomorrow."

As for Wang Leisheng's mention of taking Polygonatum every day, although the bowl that Zhao used to eat that day had been washed, the remaining Polygonatum had been checked by the coroner and the medical officer and was found to be non-toxic.

"The Li family's house is very large, with only three masters. Li Xingquan usually lives in the main courtyard with Zhao Shi, except for the study in the front yard. If there were a bad guy who broke in at night and kidnapped someone..."

He paused and shook his head slightly. "The Li family has guards patrolling the courtyard at night, and there are maids living in the same courtyard. If they want to secretly abduct two women, it is definitely not something that one person can do."

Even if they were knocked unconscious with incense, it would be too difficult for one person to carry two people on his back and climb walls without alerting any guards, Wuhou Shop, or the Jinwu Guards on the street outside.

Cui Bianxu couldn't say that he could do it 100%, unless the criminals abducted Zhao and the others and placed them nearby, or even in the same market.
