"Master Li, can you stop looking at me like this and smiling at me like this? I'm really scared..."

The bun-faced maid looked afraid of hugging her, and was looking at Li Miao pitifully.

"..."

Li Miao's smile froze.

"Ahem..."

After coughing a few times, Li Miao retracted his smile and said with some embarrassment and flattery: "Miss Xing'er, um... can you lend me two taels of silver? Wait until the monthly payment is issued next month.

Give it back to you."

"It's natural that it's okay."

The bun-faced maid just thought for a while before agreeing, and then asked rather curiously: "But Mr. Li, what do you want these two taels of silver for?"

Li Miao replied without hesitation: "It's used to buy ingredients."

Three days ago, he had become the accountant of Zhe Mansion as he wished, and successfully stayed in Zhe Mansion.

Perhaps because he exposed Liu Yanzhi's false accounting, as a reward, Zhe Xinyi assigned him a small courtyard that day.

This small courtyard is located in a relatively remote area of ​​Zhefu, and is relatively quiet. The layout is also very simple, with a medium-sized room, a small kitchen, located on the side of the room, and a small

A small toilet, plus a small yard.

Apart from this, there are no other buildings.

But Li Miao is quite satisfied with this. It is not so easy to find a job these days that includes food and accommodation and a good salary.

So the question is, since everything is covered, why do you need to buy and cook your own food?

Just because...the food in this package is really unpalatable.

Of course, this is only for Li Miao.

The food provided by Zhefu was not that bad. It was pretty good compared to this era. However, for Li Miao who came from the 20th century and tasted all kinds of delicacies, it was really hard to swallow.

The first time I didn’t want to try it a second time.

While she was recuperating, the food delivered by the bun-faced maid was all cooked by the most senior chefs in the Zhe Mansion. This type of chef only served people with high status in the Zhe Mansion such as Zhe Xinyi, so the taste was naturally not good.

When I was sent there, Li Miao didn't feel much at all at that time.

Now that the injury has healed and I am no longer staying in the guest room, I naturally don’t have this kind of treatment, so I have to go get the food by myself. This food is like a big pot meal, not that exquisite, and the chef who prepares it is naturally far better than others.

If you go to the most senior chef, the difference in taste will be obvious.

Of course, Li Miao did not explain this reason to the bun-faced maid. He just said that he did not want to be crowded with people to get food, and he was usually quite free, so he decided to cook by himself.

The bun-faced maid naturally did not doubt Li Miao, so she took out two taels of silver from the mint-colored pouch she carried with her and handed it to Li Miao.

"Thank you Miss Myolie."

Li Miao happily took it, then kept one or two of them, and handed the other two back to her.

A big question mark suddenly appeared on the not-so-smart head of the bun-faced maid, and she looked at Li Miao in confusion: "Master Li, what do you... mean by this?"

I saw Li Miao saying like this: "Miss Xing'er, it's like this, can you help me buy some ingredients with this tael of silver, such as rice, oil and salt, eggs, bacon, garlic and onions, etc.

, buy as much as you can."

Don’t underestimate this one tael of silver, you can buy a lot of things in the current environment.

The steamed bun-faced maid: "..."

And this kind of operation... She suddenly felt like she was at a huge loss.

The bun-faced maid pouted slightly and said slightly dissatisfied: "Master Li, why don't you go buy it yourself? I even lent you money."

Li Miao spread her hands and said distressedly: "I also want to go out and buy by myself, but there are people outside who are trying to kill me."

"Ah!"

Suddenly, the bun-faced maid screamed and asked hurriedly: "Master Li, who wants to harm you?"

Li Miao shook his head: "I don't know who it is. It would be much easier if I knew."

The bun-faced maid asked again: "Then...why do those people want to harm Mr. Li?"

After Li Miao was silent for a while, he said seriously: "Maybe I am too handsome and those people are jealous."

"Pfft!"

The bun-faced maid burst out laughing: "Master Li, you are so shameless."

At the same time, she also thought that what Li Miao had just said was a lie to her, and the idea of ​​telling the young lady and asking the young lady to help Mr. Li disappeared.

When she said this, Li Miao became unhappy and said dissatisfiedly: "Why am I so shameless? Am I not handsome enough?"

The bun-faced maid secretly gave Li Miao a lot.

She has fair skin, a face with clear features like a sculpture, a pair of deep and lively eyes, a high bridge of nose, lips... not to mention that besides looking relatively weak, she is still somewhat good-looking.

The bun-faced maid couldn't help but blush slightly.

"Isn't he handsome?"

Naturally, her little moves couldn't be hidden from Li Miao. Li Miao looked quite contented. He was actually quite satisfied with this body. After all, he was a little prettier than he was in his previous life.

The only thing I'm not satisfied with is, well...that's the same thing. This body is really weak and weak.

It seems that I need to plan my future exercises to make my body stronger and reproduce the nine-pack abs instead of the nine-nine-pack abs.

"Isn't he handsome!"

The bun-faced maid blushed and spat, fearing that Li Miao would say something shameless again, so she quickly said: "Master Li, I can help you go out to buy ingredients, but you have to promise me one thing.

Otherwise I won’t help you buy ingredients.”

Li Miao asked curiously: "What happened?"

"You want to tell me a story, no, two stories."

There was a cunning light in the eyes of the bun-faced maid. The stories told by Mr. Li were much nicer and more interesting than those storytellers. For example, the monkey could do seventy-two transformations, was very good at playing with sticks, and could become bigger and smaller.

There are also generals with three eyes and so on.

"No problem."

Li Miao responded without hesitation. For him, this was just a trivial matter. He asked, "Should we talk about it now or wait until you come back from buying the ingredients?"

The bun-faced maid thought for a while, and then her collagen-filled face showed a smile: "We'll talk about it when we get back."

After saying that, the girl turned around and disappeared from Li Miao's sight.

Li Miao returned to the room, picked up a book and started reading in a decent manner.

This book was also obtained through the bun-faced maid's connections in the Zhe Mansion. After all... he had promised the original owner of this body that he would participate in this year's examination and do his best to get the tribute.
