Chapter 39.1
Rebirth of the Useless Bastard Son
âWhat to do now?â Cheng Qi looked at the braised chicken that turned into a pot of soup and scratched his head.
âHow about making a chicken soup?â Xiao Liu suggested, thinking of turning the situation around.
Cheng Qi nodded in agreement, âIt seems okay.â
Tan Eyu, who had a panoramic view of this scene in the kitchen, finally couldnât help but laugh out loud, âIâm really impressed by you two, living like this. I havenât seen anyone cooking like you for a long time.â
Xiaa Liu looked at the female ghost who was laughing so hard and asked suspiciously, âSo you know how to cook?â
This was a reminder. Cheng Qi looked at Tan Eyu with sparkling eyes, âYeah, how could I forget.â
The laughter in the kitchen stopped suddenly, and Tan Eyu said with some embarrassment on her face, âThis is all old womanâs business. Yes, and what I cook is a big pot of rice, which is not suitable for your young master to eat.â
After finishing speaking, Tan Eyu saw Cheng Qi raising his hand to use the Ghost Control Order. She was so frightened that she quickly said, âWait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I canât help you with the cooking, but I can call a kid over.â
âWhat can a kid do?â Xiao Liu was a little confused, imagining a child with two braids and a red-painted face. What culinary skills could such a kid have?
Afraid that Cheng Qi would really capture her and force her to become a cook, Tan Eyu closed her eyes and quickly used the Soul Summoning Technique. Within a moment, a phantom appeared in the kitchen, and an old man with white hair stood in front of Tan Eyu. Standing proudly, he asked, âWhat are the instructions for summoning the ghost?â
Cheng Qi found out that the little ghost Tan Eyu was talking about was actually the respected old man in front of them. He was a little dumbfounded, but now it seemed that ghosts were not that scary.
âOld man, can you cook?â Tan Eyu glanced at the little ghost whose body had not yet fully appeared and frowned, thinking she might have summoned the wrong soul.
âWhen I was alive, I was the heir to a family of chefs. If you ask me, other old men wouldnât know it, but cooking is my special skill,â the old man said with a profound expression on his face, hands behind his back.
âThatâs enough, letâs make a contract.â After hearing what the little ghost said, Tan Eyu finally confirmed that she had summoned the right soul.
Cheng Qi understood immediately after hearing this, raised his hand, and placed a ghost slave contract on the soul in front of him. Remembering that Tan Eyu mentioned the effect of his blood that morning, he worriedly placed a soul control order.
âWhat are you doing?â Yin Zhong suddenly found that he had become the ghost slave of a young shuanger and asked with an inexplicable look on his face.
âThe master wants to learn cooking skills; teach them everything you know,â Tan Eyu pointed at Cheng Qi and Xiao Liu and said to the ghost in front of her.
Yin Zhong glanced at the two of them critically, stretched out his hand to stroke the beard on his chin, and shook his head, âI have very high requirements for selecting apprentices. Even for the ghost master, I will not teach him easily.â
âThen what do you want to do? How are you willing to teach?â Cheng Qi asked with a pure face, but he was playing with a coquettish purple fire in his hand.@@novelbin@@
Tan Eyu glanced at the flames on Cheng Qiâs hand, and her eyebrows jumped unconsciously. This boy really learned the essence well.
Yin Zhong felt the threat from the other party, and his face still had the same air of dignity, but the topic of conversation changed, âWhat ingredients are there in the kitchen.â
As soon as Xiao Liu heard this, he immediately replied, âThere are shrimps, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and a pot of chicken soup.â After saying that, he opened the lid of the pot and showed the chef the poor chicken soup inside.
Seeing this messy pot, Yin Zhong was almost so angry that he blew his beard and glared, âWhat kind of chicken soup is this? How can you waste food like this? What a sin, what a sin! Children cannot be taught!â
âHurry up and do it, donât just stand there,â Tan Eyu said impatiently after listening to his endless chatter.
Yin Zhong finally calmed down and asked them to take out the chicken quickly, prepared the seasonings again, soaked and marinated them, and began to teach them how to handle other ingredients. There was a chef here, although Cheng Qi and Xiao Liu were still a little confused, they finally didnât have to scratch their heads anymore.

âYoung Master Guan looks a lot more energetic,â Li Tianyan looked up and down at Guan Haoran, who walked in. He seemed to have made great progress after not seeing him for a few days.
âItâs all thanks to Brother Liâs prescription,â Guan Haoran said with a hearty smile.
After returning that day, he couldnât wait to follow Li Tianyanâs advice. In just a few days, he could already feel the energy in his body rising. He would probably be able to try to reach the third level soon.
âBrother Li talked about opening a medicinal pill store last time. I have already chosen the location of the store for you. It is near Biyun Building. The surrounding shops sell high-end goods. Children of aristocratic families in Jincheng often go there to shop; it is also close to the Guan family and easy to take care of.â Guan Haoran took out a store title deed and pushed it in front of Li Tianyan.
âYou can just lend me the store for a short time. You donât have to give me the land deed,â Li Tianyan said, somewhat dumbfounded.
âItâs just a shop. Just treat it as a thank-you gift for the prescription. Brother Li, just accept it,â Guan Haoran said arrogantly. Li Tianyan had refused to accept payment for the prescription last time, and after he returned, he had received a stern scolding from his mother.
âThe decoration of the store is still new. It used to be a store selling treasures. Now it should be suitable for opening a medicine store. Just change the plaque, and it can open for business.â
âThank you very much, Young Master Guan,â Li Tianyan said, examining the storeâs address. They had passed by it last time, and the location was indeed excellent. If the decoration didnât need to be changed much, it would save him a lot of trouble.
