“You mean to say that Mr. Fan is currently in the kitchen?”
Chu Jinzhou asked, his voice unusually calm.
Poor Third Young Master of his house, he has been shocked into silly.
The servant peering at Chu Jinzhou, full of empathy, nodded: “Yes, Third Young Master, Mr. Fan is in the kitchen now.”
“Take me there quickly.” Chu Jinzhou said, increasing his pace.
Anywhere a student should go pay his respects to his teacher first.
“Yes.” Seeing how hurriedly Chu Jinzhou was, the servant thought he was going to verify its authenticity, quickly led the way to the kitchen, urging Chu Jinzhou to go in.
“Third Young Master, be careful, the kitchen is messy.” The servant lit a lantern to illuminate the path under Chu Jinzhou’s feet, also cautioned him.
Chu Jinzhou acknowledged and hurried to the kitchen, indeed, he saw a man in blue dress, squatting in front of the stove, looking seriously at the flickering flames in the stove.
He was uttering words to himself.
“Chu Jinzhou, your student, pays respects to Mr. Fan.” Chu Jinzhou respectfully saluted Fan Wenxuan.
Fan Wenxuan didn’t even lift his eyes, just beckoned him: “You’ve arrived just in time, my sweet potato is almost cooked, help me add some fuel to the fire.” Add fuel to the fire?
Chu Jinzhou was stunned.
He had never done this before.
“What, you don’t know how?” Fan Wenxuan lifted his eyelid and glanced at Chu Jinzhou.
“Student…” Chu Jinzhou, after thinking for a while, said: “I can learn, I should put this wood in, right?”
Seeing Fan Wenxuan not saying anything, Chu Jinzhou sneakily looked at the servant beside him. Seeing the servant nodding to him, he guessed that he should be correct in doing so, so he put the neatly chopped small pieces of wood next to him into the stove.
One piece, two pieces…
The flames saw the dry wood, soared out, and the heat wave hit, Chu Jinzhou felt his backhand suddenly hot, and the whole person was startled, his hand subconsciously retracted
“Third Young Master, let me do it.” Ning Feng, who had been watching all this, couldn’t help but spoke, reaching out to take the wood from Chu Jinzhou’s hand.
Upon seeing Chu Jinzhou’s hand, he felt another heartache.
His hand was reddening, it must be painful…
“No need, I’ll handle it.” Chu Jinzhou’s small hand pushed Ning Feng away, “Since its teacher’s instruction, I have to do it, how can I use someone clse’s hand?”
After saying that, Chu Jinzhou calmed down and continued to stuff wood into the stove.
Afraid that he was not careful enough, he bowed his body forward, and his little face was flushed by the heat from the stove.
This Fan Wenxuan!
The Third Young Master of his family has been well-bred since he was a child, when has he ever done such a thing, and this Fan Wenxuan, just because he became his teacher, he has been trying all sorts of ways to torment the Third Young Master?
If it wasn’t Ning Feng being mindful of the instructions given by Chu Jinnian earlier, he would like to start a quarrel with this Fan Wenxuan at this moment.
No, to start a fight!
Chu Jinzhou didn’t know what Ning Feng was thinking at the moment. At this moment, he was only concerned about the matter of adding the fire as mentioned by Fan Wenxuan. He was stuffing wood into it one piece at a time…
“That’s enough, Third Young Master. If the stove is full, the fire will be suffocated, on the contrary, the fire might be put out.” The servant couldn’t help but remind him.
Chu Jinzhou reacted and pulled out a few pieces of wood that were almost full.
But the wood already had flames on it. After being pulled out, he didn’t know what to do with it. He could only wave the wood vigorously to extinguish the fire that was slightly ignited. However, as a result, the wood suffocated with smoke which was irritating, causing Chu Jinzhou to cough.
When pulling out the third piece, under the hint of the servant, Chu Jinzhou inserted the wood with the flame into the wood ash, which could extinguish the fire and wouldn’t produce the pungent smoke.
After such a fuss for a long time, finally the quantity of wood in the stove was appropriately adjusted and the fire inside was burning even more fiercely.
Chu Jinzhou exhaled a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
His original white little face was smudged with black ash from palm, like the face of a tabby cat.
“Mr. Fan, is this alright?” Chu Jinzhou was respectful while questioning Fan Wenxuan.
“Barely.” Fan Wenxuan stroked his beard, looking at Chu Jinzhou, laughing: “You haven’t eaten dinner yet, right?”
“Not yet, has Mr. Fan had dinner?” Chu Jinzhou replied: “If not, the student will instruct the servants below to prepare dinner for the teacher.”
“No need, the roasted sweet potato will be ready soon, just eat this.”
But as Fan Wenxuan was said this, he suddenly seemed thoughtful: “If you only eat roast sweet potatoes, I’m afraid it will be a little dry. A thin staple food needs to be cooked. So…”
“Let’s boil a pot of gruel, and then put this roasted sweet potato into the gruel, it will be very delicious.”
Ning Feng’s face suddenly turned darker.
If he may be frank, even the most menial servants in their garden do not eat this kind of food, how can the Third Young Master bear this bitterness?
“Mr. Fan, I’m being impudent, but our Third Young Master…” Ning Feng really couldn’t hold back and wanted to refuse Fan Wenxuan’s suggestion.
If you want to eat roast sweet potato and gruel, drink it yourself, don’t bring our Third Young Master along!
“Let’s follow the teacher’s instructions.” Chu Jinzhou picked up the conversation and smirked: “But is it really as delicious as the teacher said?” “Whether it’s delicious or not, don’t you know once you try it?”
Fan Wenxuan stroked his beard again: “The taste of food varies from person to person, and the taste everyone gets is different. Some people love it and feel that it’s invaluable, while others hate it and discard it like a slipper. If you only hear about it, you won’t be clear about whether the food is delicious or not. So, you have to taste it yourself to understand whether it’s delicious or not and whether you like it or not.”
“Do you understand what I said?”
“The student understands.” Chu Jinzhou smirked.
With a face like a tabby cat, he nodded non-stop: “The student also thinks that not only food, but everything in the world is like this. Eating food is like this, wearing clothes is also like this, academic research is like this, even recognizing people is like this.”
“What others say is what they think, not necessarily the same as what you think. For everything, you must understand and make comments yourself.”
“That’s correct.” Fan Wenxuan nodded his head and started laughing: “I come to understand what the Crown Prince has said.”
He understood why Chu Jinnian had said that once he met Chu Jinzhou, he would definitely think that he was an excellent student.
Now it seemed indeed so.
Intelligent, talented, and respectful to the teacher, a promising student.
Fan Wenxuan stroked his beard on his chin.
“What did Big Brother say?” Hearing Fan Wenxuan say this, Chu Jinzhou became curious..
