The cat-eared girl named Xiaochan stepped forward and bowed to the busty senior sister called Mei'er, then motioned for Nobita to follow her and walk towards the small door next to Yuchan Palace.

Following behind Sister Xiaochan, Nobita passed by those future disciples of Yuchan Palace who had registered and were standing in line. They were quite surprised to see Nobita who had joined early, but after someone explained, they found out that he was just here to do odd jobs, so they didn't take it seriously.

From now on, this will be the servant who does the laundry and cooking for them. Who would care about a servant?

……

Following Xiaochan, Daxiong looked around, checking the environment of Yuchan Palace.

As a top sect, the environment inside Yuchan Palace is quite good, much better than the poor mountains and bad waters of their Holy Church.

Looking around, all the disciples of Yuchan Palace are women. Some of these female disciples are chanting scriptures and preaching, some are practicing sword skills in formation, and some are using light skills to catch birds. It looks like a country of women. The girls' laughter like silver bells echoes in his ears. Nobita doesn't even know how wonderful it would be if a man became the master of Yuchan Palace.

"...The one with the big cauldron in front of the door is the Medicine Hall, and the one with the stone lions is the Law Enforcement Hall. Okay, we've arrived at the Miscellaneous Services Department."

After briefly introducing the internal situation of Yuchan Palace, Xiaochan indicated that Nobita had arrived at his final destination, which was the menial service department.

"When you go in, just say you are here to do odd jobs, and someone will tell you what you should and shouldn't do."

After giving instructions to Nobita, Xiaochan was about to turn around and leave, but unexpectedly Nobita stopped her.

"Wait, Sister Xiaochan!" Nobita called out to Xiaochan.

"What else?" Xiaochan turned her head and looked at Nobita in confusion.

"Sister Xiaochan, don't look at me because I'm young, but I'm good at cooking. Do you think I can help you?" Daxiong stepped forward, grabbed Xiaochan's hand, and stuffed the two taels of silver in his hand into hers.

After receiving the silver, Xiaochan smiled, and the whiskers on both sides of her face stood up: "Okay, okay, let's go, I'll take care of this matter."

Then Nobita saw Xiaochan kick open the wooden door with a plaque of "Miscellaneous Services Department" on the top. The sound was so loud that the fat man who was lying in a rocking chair and fanning himself inside the door was scared and fell to the ground.

"Who is so blind as to disturb your uncle Zheng's rest?"

The fat man with wild boar fangs in his mouth climbed up from the ground with the help of a crutch and roared at the people who were kicking the door.

"Hey? Zheng Quezi, I didn't expect that you are living such a carefree life in this menial work place? I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have gained a lot of fat. Do you want me to tell Senior Sister Mei'er that the pigs in this menial work place have been fattened again?" Xiao Chan held the sword, her eyes fixed on the big fat pig that was leaning on a crutch.

Nobita also took the opportunity to come out from behind Xiaochan and looked around the menial service area.

The service office was not small either, with a row of blue-tiled houses. In the house with open windows at the end, you could see cured chicken, duck, meat, fish, various seasonal vegetables, and several large stoves where people were busy.

He looked back at the small courtyard in front of him. There was a group of people with cat and dog heads, all between ten and twenty years old, both men and women, doing different jobs, some washing clothes, some washing vegetables, some washing dishes, and some carrying water.

The pig-headed Zheng Quezi, who claimed to be Uncle Zheng before, stood up and bowed when he saw that it was Xiaochan who kicked the door, "Greetings to Senior Sister Xiaochan, what is Xiaochan's world? Old Zheng is fat from overwork, and you who have no vision, put down your work and come to greet Senior Sister quickly?"

The menial disciples are at the bottom of the ecological chain of Yuchan Palace. When they meet a sister from Yuchan Palace, they have to call her senior sister.

"Greetings, Senior Sister."

At Zheng Quezi's reminder, a group of people who were busy working stood up and bowed to Xiaochan.

"Well, no need to be polite. You guys continue working. I'm sorry to bother you. Zheng Quezi, come here." Xiaochan motioned for others to continue working, then hooked her finger at Zheng Quezi.

"Senior Sister, what are you doing?" Zheng Quezi didn't quite understand what Xiaochan meant, but he still obediently limped to Xiaochan on his crutches.

"Well, this is my younger brother, his name is..." Xiaochan wanted to introduce Nobita to Zheng Quezi, but then she remembered that she didn't ask Nobita's name.

"Xiaohu, sister, my name is Xiaohu." Nobita reminded in a low voice.

"Yes, that's right, Xiaohu. My brother Xiaohu will come to work in the menial service department from now on. He knows how to cook. Zheng Quezi, you take care of him. If my brother gets bullied, watch out for your pig's trotters." Xiaochan didn't give Zheng Quezi any face at all.

"Yes, yes, I understand. Don't worry, Senior Sister Xiaochan, just leave your brother to our Old Zheng."

Although he knew that this little tiger must have given money to Xiaochan to take care of him, but Lao Zheng was not stupid, how could he expose the two people in front of him? So he took the initiative to agree.

"Well, it's good that you know." After warning Zheng Quezi, Xiaochan turned around and said to Daxiong, "Xiaohu, I have something else to do, so I won't be here with you. If this pig dares to bully you, tell me and I will definitely teach him a lesson."

After all, two taels of silver at a time is not a small amount for doing things, so Xiaochan is still very responsible to Nobita.

"Yes, thank you sister." Nobita threw himself on Xiaochan, hugged Xiaochan's waist with one hand and touched Xiaochan's hand with the other.

Xiaochan originally wanted to refuse and push Daxiong away, but the tael of silver in her hand told her that Xiaohu was a good boy.

After sending Xiaochan away, Daxiong turned around and bowed to Zheng Quezi in front of him and said, "Manager Zheng, I'm a new nephew and I don't know the rules. Please take care of me."

The silver light shining between Nobita's fingers is Zheng Quezi's unchanging belief in this life.

"Oh my, Xiaohu, how can you say that? You are a menial disciple, so you and Old Zheng are one family. Why are we talking about different things?" Old Zheng smiled and touched Nobita's silver.

Mr. Zheng likes this kind of sensible child!

"Thank you, Uncle Zheng!" Nobita bowed again, but was helped up by Old Zheng.

"Hey, Xiaohu, we are a family now, so don't be so polite. If you have any problem, just tell your uncle Zheng Chaoyang. Old Zheng will take care of it." Old Zheng helped Daxiong up and patted his chest, which was as big as a woman's. Then he remembered what Xiaochan said just now, "By the way, Xiaohu, you said you can cook a little bit, what can you cook?"

"Uncle, my father was a restaurant chef. I learned how to cook from him since I was young. I know how to fry, stir-fry, stew, and braise." Nobita lied but not completely.

How could he have a father who was a restaurant chef? He only had a capable demon cult leader as his father.

"Is that so? Then you can make some food for me first and let me taste it. Then I will think about where to arrange you."

Zheng Quezi thought about it and decided to test Nobita first. After all, Nobita had someone in the palace. If he let him know that he treated him badly, he would be beaten up for sure.

Nobita was not afraid either. He followed Zheng Quezi and followed the limping fat man into the kitchen.

"You can use whatever ingredients are in the kitchen." Zheng Guizi pointed to the kitchen and signaled Nobita to use whatever he wanted.

"Yes, uncle."

Nobita took a look at the situation in the kitchen, thought about it briefly, and decided what to do.

After a while, two dishes were placed in front of Zheng Quezi.

Daxiong pointed at the dishes in front of him and said, "Uncle, silver thread tofu soup, cucumber with straw raincoat, please enjoy."

Zheng Quezi: “…”

Oh no, this kid is really good at cooking. Silver Thread Tofu Soup and Water Chestnut Cucumber are both dishes that require extremely strong knife skills. Moreover, this kid even closed his eyes while cooking. I can’t do that.

His knife skills are so superb, I'm afraid the other skills won't be bad either.

Thinking that his position as the chef of the menial service department might be in jeopardy, Zheng Quezi thought for a while and pointed to the small stove next to him and said, "How about this, Xiao Zhao, your job will be replaced by Xiao Hu from now on. Xiao Hu, from now on you will use this small stove to cook and deliver meals to people. When the time comes, someone will tell you where to deliver the meals."

Xiao Zhao: "Thank you, Manager. I said I can't cook. Now it's easy!"

Nobita: "???"

Why do I feel like I've been cheated?

Although he felt something was not right, Nobita still decided to take on the task of cooking. After all, his mission was to find Lan Tu and find a way to push Lan Tu's martial arts to the innate level.

Cooking is not important!

Chapter 69: When I first arrived in Lingmeng, I was in charge of the cold palace!

After briefly getting to know the people in the Miscellaneous Affairs Department, it was already getting late and everyone in the department started to get busy.

The sounds of cutting vegetables, washing vegetables, and slicing the pot can be heard. People come and go in the kitchen, each with a clear division of labor. Some are frying big pot dishes, while others are busy kneading dough, steaming buns, and steaming rice.

The big stove in the kitchen is managed by a tiger-headed man named Fang Jian. He is very strong and holds a shovel instead of a spatula. He can even pick up the iron pot as big as a bathtub with one claw and stir it. The dishes cooked by Fang Jian are finally poured into a large wooden basin and taken away by the servants.

The smaller stove next to the big stove is the one that Zheng Quezi is responsible for. Unlike the big pot of food next to it, Zheng Quezi's small stove is responsible for small dishes. The ingredients used are also good, with live fish and live chicken. The dishes cooked are very delicate. Finally, Zheng Quezi stirs the pot with a spatula, and the dishes cooked in the pot are placed on white plates, which are then put on trays by the servants next to him and taken away.

There are two master chefs in the kitchen. The pig-headed man Zheng Quezi is the head chef, responsible for the meals for the elders and above, so the dishes are placed in small plates and taken away on trays.

Fang Jian is the deputy chef, responsible for the disciples of Yuchan Palace. He cooks big pots of dishes, and the quality of the dishes is average, about the level of the chefs in the canteens in the human world.

Fortunately, there are no pre-prepared meals in this world, otherwise all the ducks in the rat holes under the Yuchan Palace would have turned into duck necks.

Seeing everyone busy cooking, Nobita, as a new errand boy in the errand department, naturally couldn't just stand there stupidly, so he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook with his own small stove to show off his cooking skills to the people above him.

But just as Nobita was about to reach for the vegetables in the basket nearby, the koala man previously called Xiao Zhao knocked Nobita away with his butt.

"What are you doing?" Nobita stopped and looked at Xiao Zhao strangely.

"Hey, this is your favorite." Xiao Zhao pointed his finger behind Daxiong with a proud look, "Don't get your position wrong."

When Nobita saw Xiao Zhao pointing his finger, he turned around and became angry on the spot.

My goodness, isn’t this bullying the honest people?

The vegetable baskets at the back are all full of radishes, big radishes, small radishes, green radishes, and carrots. This is not a gathering of heroes at all, it's a meeting of radishes.

"Uncle Zheng, what's going on? Aren't you guys bullying me? You gave me a basket of radishes. What kind of dish is this? Do you want me to ask Sister Xiaochan to come back and see how you treat me?"

At first, Nobita thought that Zheng Quezi was a good person, but he didn't expect that he was still too young. How could this fat man with a bloated brain and a bloated stomach be a good person?

Zheng Quezi, who had just finished distributing the dishes, had just taken a breath when he saw Daxiong, who looked dissatisfied. Naturally, he also knew why Daxiong was angry, and hurriedly explained: "Xiaohu, what are you talking about? How did our Old Zheng bully people? I forgot to say just now that this stove is only responsible for the meals of one place, and that place only needs to be responsible for three meals a day, and there is no requirement for the dishes, just cook whatever you want, uncle, will I take care of you?"

"Really?" After hearing Lao Zheng's explanation, Daxiong thought it made sense, but he still felt something was wrong. "Uncle, you won't cheat me, will you? You should know that I have Sister Mei'er above me. If you cheat on me, Sister Mei'er will not forgive you!" "Sister Mei'er? The inner sect's eldest disciple, Fox Mei'er?"

"Is it the Qi Sect's inner sect disciple? The one at the first-class level?"

"How come this kid has a relationship with that senior sister?"

To Nobita's surprise, the big-breasted senior sister seemed very powerful. When these servants heard Mei'er's name, their faces changed.

Zheng Quezi's mind raced as he thought about the relationship between Xiaochan and that foxy girl. He decided that it was better to believe it than not, so he tentatively concluded that Nobita had some relationship with that sister. So he smiled and became more friendly towards Nobita.

"Xiao Hu, what are you talking about? Old Zheng is following Senior Sister Xiao Chan's orders to treat you well. Don't worry, I'm definitely not cheating you by letting you take charge of this stove. Look at Xiao Zhao, he's been in charge for such a long time, and he's fine, right?" Zheng Quezi wiped the sweat off his face with a towel and pointed at the green vegetables next to him. "Actually, you can use any of these vegetables, no one is stopping you, but it's not worth using those good ones. I won't go into the details, anyway, you'll know once you finish cooking and send the dishes over."

Even though Zheng Quezi said so, Nobita didn't become suspicious. He thought it was unnecessary for Zheng Quezi and the other servants to trick him.

I am just a new servant, so even if I say I have any connection, it is not a big deal. And it is unlikely that I have offended anyone. Nobita is the young master of the Demon Cult. People who know his identity either surrender or take up weapons to fight. There is no third choice.

After thinking for a moment, Nobita bowed to Zheng Quezi and apologized, then started to busy himself with cooking.

Although he doesn't know if there are any secret places here, just because Nobita doesn't want to cause trouble doesn't mean he is afraid of it. The people in the entire Yuchan Palace combined are not enough for him to defeat alone, so what is he afraid of?

If it weren't for the plot, and to help Xue Jing take care of Lan Tu, he wouldn't have bothered to go to Yuchan Palace to be a servant.

But then again, Nobita still doesn't know where Lan Tu is, so he directly asks the disciples of Yuchan Palace for the location of the young palace master. No one with a normal brain would do that.

No longer worrying about those unnecessary things, Nobita began to prepare lunch. His hands and mouth never stopped working. While cooking, he did not forget to ask where he was responsible for.

The fact that the kitchen helpers were asked to cook, and that they only used such sloppy ingredients as radish, must mean that the small stove did not have a high status in the Yuchan Palace.

Nobita can also understand it. After all, this is the Yuchan Palace where there are the most women. Isn't it reasonable for palace fighting to happen?

The one who wins the palace fight becomes the queen and sits in the central palace; the one who loses the palace fight is sent to the cold palace and becomes crazy.

Nobita guessed that he was responsible for the failed "concubine" in the cold palace.

……

After going out, Nobita carried the food box and went to deliver the meal according to Zheng Quezi's instructions. However, before delivering the meal, Nobita needed to find the lotus pond in Yuchan Palace first.

The place where Nobita is going to deliver the meal is a place called Lengyu Palace. Zheng Quezi said that when passing by the lotus pond in the palace, one can see Lengyu Palace.

After asking the senior sisters from Yuchan Palace who passed by, Nobita found the lotus pond on the northwest side of Yuchan Palace. Smelling the aroma emanating from the food box, Nobita also felt a little hungry.

As he had just arrived, Nobita didn't understand the tastes of the people in the "cold palace" he was in charge of, so he just cooked some simple dishes.

Fried meatballs, spinach with peanuts, scrambled eggs with leeks, and braised chicken with rice.

Smelling the aroma emanating from the food box, Nobita was drooling. He even smelled the taste of the braised chicken with rice, which made him recall the bitter past and sweet past, thinking back to his hard-working life as a wage earner.

Nobita made up his mind to first pry out some news about Lan Tu from the people in the cold palace, and then go to have a meal, recalling the good and bad times, and reminiscing about his life as a slave.

However, just as Nobita walked across the stone bridge leading to the pavilion in the middle of the lake from the lotus pond, he heard a sad cry. From the sound, he could tell that the person crying was a young girl.

Out of curiosity, Nobita followed the sound with his food box...

Chapter 70 Cold Jade Palace

A breeze blew by, ripples appeared on the surface of the pond, and the lotus flowers swayed, bringing a faint floral fragrance. It was a beautiful scene, but the beauty of the scene was ruined by the bursts of crying coming from the side.

Nobita found a small "clay doll" next to the lotus pond. Judging from its hair and listening to its voice, it should be a little girl.

The little girl's long rabbit ears drooped, her hair was tied up in clumps by the mud and water, her little face was evenly smeared with mud, her original appearance could not be seen, her cross-collared short shirt was stained with mud, her original appearance could not be seen, her pants were also covered with black mud, and on her small feet, only the left foot was wearing a muddy thousand-layer cloth shoe, her right foot was bare, and her snow-white foot was also covered with mud.

"Woo woo woo, my hydrangea..."

The little girl wiped her tears, sat beside the lotus pond, and cried to the water. Nobita looked in the direction the little girl pointed, and saw a red hydrangea in the lotus pond. The hydrangea was soaked in the water, and was occasionally pushed up by the carps in the water, shaking slightly.

"Little sister, stop crying. You want to get the hydrangea back, right?"

Nobita put down the food box, walked to the little girl and asked softly.

"Yeah." The little girl with bunny ears looked up at Nobita. Seeing Nobita's sincere eyes, she nodded, sniffed her nose and said, "Brother, can you help me get the ball back?"

"You wait."

Nobita turned around and stretched out his hand. The magic power in his hand condensed, and a powerful suction force came from the palm of his hand. The hydrangea in the lotus pond suddenly broke away from the water and flew into Nobita's hand.
