Yun Yi did not know that his unintentional answer had made Third Aunt Li suspicious. However, there was nothing he could do about it.
To him, there was no such thing as hierarchy. She was Li Sanniang, and in the future, she would be Princess Pingyang Zhao. Now, just a word from her could cause her head to fall to the ground.
However, Yun Yi was not a person who was afraid of death. A person could live in poverty, but he could not lose his dignity because he was afraid of death.
She was Princess Ping Yang Zhao, and he was a transmigrator!
From then on, Yun Yi became the head butler of the Li Residence's kitchen. He was in charge of everything in the kitchen and had a few subordinates.
There were four aunties who cooked vegetables, two waiters who went out to buy vegetables, and a former head butler. However, the current head butler was Yun Yi. The former head butler had become Yun Yi's subordinate.
Of course, Yun Yi did not take his identity as the Head Butler seriously. What he needed to do now was to think of a way to make Third Aunt Li bring him and Yun Xue 'er with her when she left Chang' an.
Because he was already standing on Li Sanniang's boat. At that time, he would either be abandoned or become a soul under the knife.
Chang 'an was not peaceful at all. There were countless pairs of eyes staring at the Li Residence and the hostage, Sanniang Li.
Especially that guy called the Underworld Master. He was the awesome person who raided the Li family's ancestral grave!
However, this guy did not have a good ending. When Li Yuan invaded Chang 'an, the first thing he did was to sacrifice him to the flag. Li Yuan's son directly snatched his daughter.
Therefore, he had to cling to Sanniang Li. He couldn't give up just like that. Following her might be a little tough in the early stages.
However, in the future, her life would definitely be better than that of ordinary people. She was Li Yuan's most beloved daughter. If she had not died early, it would be a problem if the changes in the Black Tortoise Sect in the future would have happened.
Sitting on a stone bench in the kitchen courtyard, Yun Yi looked at the rockery in the distance in a daze. In fact, he was reading the books in his mind. When the books were useful, they were too few. Yun Yi urgently needed to fill in the history of the end of the Sui Dynasty.
Opposite the stone table, Yun Xue 'er was eating some snacks. These snacks were also made by Yun Yi, but they were failed products. They did not taste very good, but Yun Xue' er was eating very happily. In the past, Yun Xue 'er had never eaten such delicious noodles.
Yun Xue 'er was almost done eating. She raised her small chin with both hands and blinked her small eyes as she looked at the dazed Yun Yi.
She realized that ever since Brother Yun woke up from his coma, he liked to daydream. Moreover, his personality had become a little different from before.
In the past, Brother Yun was a little dull. He didn't like to talk and didn't know how to cook. Now, Brother Yun had become very smart and could cook very well.
The most important thing was that the Brother Yun in front of her could actually talk to the eldest daughter of Chang 'an's powerful Li family. This was something that Yun Xue' er had never expected.
Although Brother Yun had changed, he was still the same Brother Yun who loved and cared for her. Yun Xue 'er also liked the changed Brother Yun now.
Yun Yi flipped through the books for a long time, but he did not see any detailed records of Third Aunt Li leaving Chang 'an.
There were only some simple records. After all, in ancient times, it was a virtue for a woman to be without talent. During the Five Dynasties, the name of a woman's boudoir could not be casually revealed. One could imagine that if it was not for Li Sanniang's contribution to the establishment of Li Tang, there would probably be no records of her in the history books.
"Sigh, what should I do? And that Chai Shao, could it be that the monarch was born before I was born, and the monarch was married after I was born? God, since you wanted me to transmigrate, why didn't you do it earlier? Or perhaps, it would have been better if my soul had transmigrated into Chai Shao's body. What a pity! What a pity!"
Yun Yi sighed in his heart. The first time he saw Third Aunt Li, he was attracted. This was not only because of the celebrity effect, but also because Yun Yi's heart had already changed.
If he was still the librarian from his previous life, he would not have such thoughts of taking advantage of a woman like Li Sanniang. However, it was different now.
Yun Yi was currently in a bad mood.
Yun Xue 'er saw that Yun Yi's expression was a little depressed, so she used her small hand to push the noodles in front of her to Yun Yi and said obediently,"Brother, you should eat some too. This snack is very delicious. It's the best snack I've ever eaten.”
Yun Yi came back to his senses and looked at Yun Xue 'er. If he had not transmigrated, perhaps her fate in the future would not have been good either.
Life was like grass in a chaotic world. This seemingly peaceful world was about to fall into chaos.
Yun Yi stood up and decided to make a new set of snacks. Although the food he had been eating these few days was better than the average person here, it could not be compared to his previous life. There were not many ingredients left and it tasted too bland. Yun Yi really missed the taste of chili.
"Xue 'er, you eat. I'm not hungry. I'm going to cook. Don't run around.”
Although Yun Yi was the head butler of the Li Residence's kitchen, he did not care about the matters in the kitchen. He was only responsible for Third Aunt Li's meals. Every day, he was on time and in quantity.
He did not make a dish every day. Yun Yi only made a simple menu. There were three dishes a day, and the dishes were different for a total of three days. Then, he directly went through a cycle.
There had to be a different dish every day. Yun Yi could not cook it. Many of the dishes in the books required ingredients. Without those ingredients, it would be impossible to make that kind of taste.
The key was that Yun Yi did not want to run out of ideas. Now that he had not even managed to cling onto a thigh, he was of no value. This was an unwise choice.
"Young Langjun, you need to make two portions today. Young Master Chai is back.”The former Head Butler Li Fu cupped his hands towards Yun Yi and said.
In this era where status was the most important, even if Yun Yi was much younger than Li Fu and could be his grandson, he still had to bow to Yun Yi.
Yun Yi, who was preparing to cook, immediately threw away his hand when he heard Li Fu's words. He took off the cloth and said,"I'm not feeling well, so I won't be cooking today. If the princess smells it, you can just answer directly.”
At this moment, Yun Yi's heart ached. He had the thought of directly relying on someone else to snatch Third Aunt Li over. He also had the thought of killing Chai Shao. Unfortunately, he still could not defeat Chai Shao.
Li Fu watched Yun Yi leave and felt puzzled. He had just been fine. Why did he suddenly become uncomfortable?
However, this meal still had to be cooked, so Li Fu directly presided over it. He asked the chefs to try their best to follow Yun Yi's previous cooking method and start cooking today's lunch.
In the hall of the Li residence, Chai Shao was drinking tea with Li Sanniang. The tea at this time was not considered tea yet. There were many condiments added in it, especially garlic. It tasted good when drunk, but the nobles at this time especially liked it.
"Third Aunt, the higher-ups are watching closely now. Do you think something will happen?”How could Chai Shao be in the mood to drink tea? Right now, he was like an ant on a hot pan, extremely anxious.
Back then, in order to get Sanniang Li, he had directly gambled with the Chai family and spent all his wealth to make Li Yuan willing to marry Sanniang Li to him.
However, Third Aunt Li was a very strong woman. Her martial strength was high, and her temperament was stronger than ordinary men. As the eldest young master of the Chai family, he could not suppress her.
Until now, the two of them had not consummated their marriage. According to Li Sanniang, only when the Li family entered Chang 'an and she had made a career would she consider that matter.
Therefore, Chai Shao became a groom who did not enter the bridal chamber with his bride. He did not dare to speak out. After all, the Chai family had been tied to the Li family. He still loved Third Aunt Li in his heart. He could only endure the shame and wait for the day when the Li family entered Chang 'an.
But unexpectedly, he was sent to Chang 'an by Li Yuan and became a hostage. Chai Shao was even more dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say it. This was a critical moment. Once the matter was exposed, his Chai family would be finished, and he wouldn't be able to live.
This was a critical moment. The Li family could rise to power at any time. At that time, they would definitely be captured and sacrificed by the Underworld Master in Chang 'an.
Li Sanniang calmly drank the tea and did not look at Chai Shao's impatient expression. She slowly said,"Don't worry, everything is ready. Nothing will happen.”
Every time Chai Shao asked, Li Sanniang would say this. He was already immune to this sentence. When he looked at Li Sanniang who was drinking tea, a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.
The two of them were almost done drinking, but the food was not served. They were both a little surprised.
Third Aunt Li thought that there would be some fresh dishes today. Yun Yi must have heard of Chai Shao's arrival, so he had other thoughts. His expression changed slightly for some reason, but he returned to his calm state.
Chai Shao felt that Li Sanniang did not want him to eat here. Now that the two of them were sleeping in separate rooms and even eating separately, could it be that she had other intentions?
Not long after, Li Fu brought a group of maids with him and brought the dishes up.
Today's lunchtime was slightly over. This was their dereliction of duty as servants. In Li Fu, dereliction of duty required punishment.
Li Fu knelt on the ground and said,""Please punish me, Princess. Just now, Young Langjun said that he was not feeling well and went back to rest. Those chefs did not know how to cook Young Langjun's dishes, so it was delayed.”
Sanniang Li was stunned for a moment, then asked,""Uncomfortable? Is there a problem? Take him to see the doctor. As for the punishment, I'll spare him today.”
"Thank you, Princess." Li Fu immediately returned the salute.”
Then, he instructed the servant girls to place the food on the table while he bowed and bade farewell.
Chai Shao looked at the dishes on his table and felt that they were very novel. He had never seen them before and they smelled quite fragrant. He directly gestured for the servant girls to serve them.
Sanniang Li was still wondering why Yun Yi suddenly felt unwell and was unwilling to cook. Even if it was not what she thought, it was not to the extent that he suddenly stopped cooking, right?
After taking a bite, she felt that the taste was still not as good as Yun Yi's. This vegetable was not cooked as well as him. Then, she took another bite. This mutton was not cooked well either.
In the end, Third Aunt Li put down her chopsticks. Looking at Chai Shao's gluttonous appearance, she frowned slightly, as if she was looking at a country bumpkin. It was a little eyesore.
"Men, go and see how Yun Yi is doing. If his body is fine, let him cook a meal himself.”
"Yes."
