In the early morning, the first ray of colorful clouds fell to the ground, and Gu Xiang had already gotten up early to the kitchen of Huotouying.
Reach out and dig a piece of marinated meat, apply it to the dough, knead it again, apply a layer of base oil to the pan, and bake it slowly over low heat.
After about ten minutes, a pot of golden meat cakes came out of the pot warmly.
Gu Xiang looked at it and was very satisfied. For many years, she has not liked bread for breakfast and drank milk. She liked to eat wonton noodle soup and meat patties. Now she is very good at making sesame cakes, and the taste is definitely not worse than the pastry chefs outside.
Li Sheng followed Zhao Ying three steps, standing not far behind the queue. At this time, there was already a chill. Zhao Ying was wearing a cloak that could cover half of her face, and her eyes fell on Gu Xiang's hands. She walked gently two steps to the side. Li Sheng hurriedly followed.
Zhao Ying: "Stay away from me."
Li Sheng: "!?"
"Stinky." Zhao Ying looked stern and spit out a word from the crack of her lips.
Li Sheng: “…”
He retreated silently, but couldn't help rolling his eyes. He had heard the message from Gu Xiaozi last night, so he reorganized the soldiers' patrol route overnight, reserved a gap, and blocked the back door and waited for the rabbit. Sure enough, he caught Cuilan.
To be cautious, he didn't sleep all night and sat in the dungeon for interrogation, almost judging all the eight generations of Cuilan's ancestors.
The Duke of the State still resented Cuilan to prevent him from eating mutton, and repeatedly suggested that he had to find something, which made him feel uneasy all night.
After the trial, people had to be dispatched overnight to monitor the uneasy factors in the army and send letters to the capital. I didn’t have time to wash up and change clothes early this morning, so I only practiced a set of punches as I was used to, so I hurried to this person to serve as a job.
He worked so hard that he didn't say he had doubled the reward, but he just started to complain about his bad taste, haha.
One day, their prince was beaten up by someone to sack, and he would never be able to find the murderer.
Soon, Li Sheng, like the hungry soldiers, his attention was involuntarily on Gu Xiang. The beauty paired with delicious food is definitely more worthy of attention than a big man.
The golden sesame cake came out of the pot. Li Sheng quickly took a few steps, took the food box specially sent by Aphon, opened it first and took one out, put it next to his mouth and took a bite.
The sesame cake looks puffy but not light at all. It is very refreshing, the meat is not greasy, and the mouth is full of fragrance.
Li Sheng nodded, and this meal was definitely not inferior to the standard.
Yesterday, Miss Gu fooled Cuilan without any effort and pushed her into a trap. Today, she was able to get rid of distracting thoughts and still steadily start to eat food. She is not surprised by the favor and disgrace, and will definitely become a great man in the future.
"cough!"
Zhao Ying glared angrily.
Li Sheng smiled, not only did he not hand it over, but he also ate a bite of the sesame cake with a fragrant taste, but also picked up the corn and fish porridge in the bowl, and slowly drank it with great pleasure.
Zhao Ying: “…”
"Don't worry, everything will be simple when you go out. Leave it to me to try the drug in the future. Don't worry, I will definitely help you with your test."
Li Sheng smiled.
Just as Zhao Ying was about to sneer, he saw Gu Xiang look up at this side. He immediately stopped, raised his head slightly, and stretched out his hand to make his clothes.
The heads were surging, and Gu Xiang could not see clearly in the distance. At this time, Magistrate Wang came to the front. Seeing that he was panting and seemed very tired, Gu Xiang turned out a bench and asked him to sit down, and poured him a bowl of fruit dew.
Magistrate Wang was satisfied and said in his heart that he thought hard for several days and silently repeated the words, then he smiled and said to Gu Xiang: "Sanniang, my uncle has a cousin. He just passed the scholar last year. He looks good and has a pretty temperament. He is a very good child. He is twenty-five years old this year. He is a little older..."
Gu Xiang smiled and handed him a small plate of mung bean cake.
The sweetness of mung bean cake was just right. Magistrate Wang's stomach kept the pastry back, but - "Well, it's delicious!"
Magistrate Wang ate two pieces of mung bean cake the size of a thumb belly in one go. It was naturally not enough, but it was better to taste the desserts.
"Sanniang, don't waste your skills."
He began to worry that Gu Xiang would not be able to enjoy her skills after leaving Yongyi's army.
After eating the snack, Magistrate Wang packed two big meat cakes. As soon as he left the queue, he happened to meet Duke An Guo. He was shocked and hurriedly saluted respectfully. However, before his waist was bent down, he heard An Guo say: "Don't be too polite."
This voice is gentle.
Huh?
Magistrate Wang looked up and met Zhao Ying's unspeakable smiley face. He was confused and stood up in a daze. Seeing that Duke An actually laughed at him, his heart suddenly burst out several times.
From this to Shouling, Magistrate Wang and him also looked up and saw each other without looking down. What they enjoyed was always coldness without any temperature.
"The prince stayed up late last night? After work, don't work too hard."
Zhao Ying comforted Magistrate Wang with a few words in a gentle voice, and also ordered Li Sheng to send him a few steps.
County Magistrate Wang: "...Did the Duke of the State take the wrong medicine?"
Li Sheng smiled awkwardly.
In the past few days, the prince of his family asked his subordinates to investigate whether Mrs. Gu had relatives and friends in the army.
Magistrate Wang was at the forefront of the list.
Thinking of this, Li Sheng naturally understood why the Duke of China was so polite. He clearly suspected that Magistrate Wang and others were chewing in front of Gu Xiaozi, saying that he was having trouble, so he pretended to ease the relationship.
Zhao Ying and Magistrate Wang each had little thoughts and were a little wary. Li Sheng had just sent Magistrate Wang to walk a few steps. Suddenly, Afeng trotted all the way, and shouted, "Cook Gu, a young man came outside, named Zhou Dong, who said he was from Guzhuang and was entrusted by Lingzun Lingtang to deliver a letter to you."
With a swish, Magistrate Wang stopped and Zhao Ying's eyes narrowed. In the kitchen, from chef to little chef to miscellaneous people, they all turned their heads to look at him. Afeng was stared at by countless eyes and was shocked - "Himmer!"
Gu Xiang blinked, put down the long chopsticks first, and told Lao Du to look at the stove for her, then he stepped out and walked out of the fence where the kitchen was located.
As soon as I went out, I saw Zhou Dong standing upright not far away, carrying two baskets on his shoulders, which seemed a little restrained, but his waist was straight and he didn't shrink.
When Zhou Dong saw Gu Xiang, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then his face turned slightly red and he was a little surprised.
The little lady of the Gu family has changed a lot.
He had known that Miss Gu's appearance was very good, but he was somewhat polite at that time. Now... he couldn't say it, he just felt that Miss Gu's face was so white that it was shining, and she was simply a fairy.
Gu Xiang smiled, walked over generously and thanked him first, then asked: "How is my parents? How about my grandfather? Are everything in the family safe?"
Zhou Dong hurriedly explained the situation of Gu's family.
"Grandma Zhang brought her second lady and Shirou Goro's two brothers, and returned to the village yesterday."
At this point, Zhou Dong hesitated a little on his face and said, "I don't know the specific situation. I only heard that the second lady seems to be sick."
His words were a bit tactful. Gu Xiang opened the letter from his family. The letter was the tone of his father, but he wrote it to his grandfather. In addition to asking about her situation, the one who touched the most was to complain about her second cousin, saying that she was simply crazy and talked nonsense all day long, not saying that Gu Xiang was dead, but also said that after three months, the life of his life was in chaos, Gu Zhuang was almost scorched earth, and corpses were everywhere, and the epidemic occurred frequently.
