"The steamed buns are soft and chewy, with a different vegetable fragrance." King Chu said slowly, raising his eyes to look at Xue Jinyi, "Very thoughtful, not bad." ”

In the face of praise, Xue Jinyi was not in a good mood, out of the basic principle of not wasting food, after quickly eating the remaining vegetables, she hugged her fist to the king of Chu and said loudly: "Now we don't owe each other, so say goodbye!" ”

"Wait." The king of Chu stopped her again.

Xue Jinyi put on a dead face and asked, "What advice does Brother Pu have?" ”

"With such a good craft, why don't you come to my house and be a cook."

It's not enough for me to be 108,000 miles away from you, and I still want to go to your house to be a cook?! Xue Jinyi was so angry that she laughed instead, so that she didn't notice a deep meaning in King Chu's eyes, waved her hand, and said, "I'm not interested." ”

"Oh, forget it."

"......" Since he thinks the steamed buns are delicious and innovative, why did he refuse so quickly? Don't you want to keep it? Xue Jinyi couldn't wait to punch herself in the head, although she was proud of her cooking skills, but with the appreciation of the King of Chu, she would be exempted from being the chef of the Chu Palace.

Xue Jinyi sat on the stool and didn't move anymore, and she didn't bother to ask the King of Chu if she could leave, but waited for the King of Chu to take the initiative to let her go.

Looking at the little face showing an angry kitten-like expression, King Chu felt interesting, since he met her, the expression of this face has changed a lot, and it is more wonderful than the face-changing performance he has seen in the palace.

But he didn't think about it further, after all, he had tested the purpose of her appearance in front of him again, so there was no need to think deeply.

In his opinion, this is just a little crazy and cunning little girl.

Xue Jinyi had been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally when the King of Chu got up, her eyes showed a bright light.

The King of Chu noticed, paused, and then something fell in front of Xue Jinyi.

It is a palm-sized paper bag, with a floral fragrance.

"A glass of water for a steamed bun, you suffer a little bit, this is for you. Soak in water and drink, it should help. ”

"...... "The king of Chu is still human and has a conscience?" Xue Jinyi stared at the paper bag, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of King Chu striding out of the hall, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The annoying jingke is finally gone.

She picked up the paper bag, looked left and right, and then twisted the rope to untie it, when she suddenly remembered something, and her movements stopped.

If you have a floral scent......

It can't be the mandala flower that the King of Chu used to kill Miss Dong as rumored, right?!

Xue Jinyi's hand shook and almost threw the paper bag out.

The floral fragrance of the mandala is also poisonous, so she quickly covered her mouth and nose with a cloth bag containing steamed buns, and then carefully opened the paper bag.

When the deep rose-red corner was revealed, her tense nerves relaxed.

When the mandala flower is used as a medicinal herb, it is not this color.

She completely spread out the paper bag and found that it was a pack of rose tea, as an actor, of course she knew that this was a good thing, it had the effect of regulating blood and qi, beautifying and nourishing the skin, and asked the assistant to make this for her to drink from time to time.

Wait a minute...... Xue Jinyi muttered in a low voice, "What do you mean to help me?" ”

Rose tea does help her now, who is a little ugly, but there are very few men who drink it......

She only had one guess - the King of Chu really saw that she was Miss Xue dressed as a man!

Xue Jinyi pinched her eyebrows.

Forget it, the Baiyun Temple and his party are going well, and the King of Chu doesn't really do anything to her, so there is no need to worry about this.

Xue Jinyi sniffed the rose tea carefully, carefully rewrapped it, stuffed it into a cloth bag, and bounced back to the city.

She didn't rush back to the Weiguo Mansion, but wandered around the streets freely, anyway, the original owner used to go out to play from time to time, and the people in the Guogong Mansion didn't care at all.

Among the shops of the Xue family, the most important is a restaurant, located in the northwest corner of Dongshi, the closest to the imperial city. The three-storey restaurant is luxuriously decorated, with roof tiles reflecting brilliant light in the sun, red lanterns hanging under the eaves, and colorful flags outside the windows.

Although it was past noon time, there were still many people in and out of the restaurant, all dressed up richly, so that the guys nodded and treated them very respectfully.

Although Xue Jinyi had money in her pocket, she couldn't afford to eat the things in this restaurant, and she didn't want to reveal her identity, so she sat in the tea shed next to the restaurant and asked for a bowl of herbal tea.

The herbal tea tastes good, but she misses the mountain spring water in the water bladder of King Chu a little, and she must find the mountain spring when she goes to Baiyun Temple in the future and taste it again.

She was thinking about it when a carriage came into view.

There was a cluster of flowers on the roof of the carriage, small palace lamps hung at the four corners, and a golden sign with the huge word "Sun" on it, showing the identity of the people in the carriage.

Mrs. Xue's name is Sun Suci, so the people in the car are her mother's family.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the restaurant, and the shopkeeper hurriedly brought a footstool.

The first to get off the carriage was a girl in green clothes, standing in the wheels, respectfully stretching out her hands.

Then, a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears stood on the wheel, as if inspecting his own territory, and looked at the restaurant for a while, and then he grabbed the maid's hand and laboriously moved off the footstool.

The maid pursed her lips, and the blue tendons on her forehead were prominent, and it could be said that she tried her best to withstand the pressure from the middle-aged man.

Xue Jinyi stuck out her tongue and used the beautiful young maid as a cane, this man is really inhumane.

Another well-dressed man came out of the restaurant, and he yelled at the middle-aged man, "Boss Sun." ”

Is it really Sun Suci's relative, and it seems that he is in charge of the Xue family's property? The people of the Xue family are not dead, no wonder the old lady is so angry.

If Mrs. Xue is not happy, she will not come to toss her, and she will be able to live in peace.

Xue Jinyi thought to herself, and wanted to kick a stone at her feet to tease Boss Sun, but she felt that it would affect the girl in Tsing Yi, so she waited until Boss Sun glanced at the maid with a lewd smile, and pinched it hard in her hand, looking at the maid with an embarrassed look, Xue Jinyi kicked the stone to Boss Sun's feet with a hard foot.

However, Boss Sun did not step on it, because there was some commotion at the door of the restaurant.

A man in brocade clothes had red cheeks and staggered out of the door, probably very drunk, so he couldn't see the road clearly, and hit his head on Boss Sun's chest, and actually knocked the mountain-like person back again and again, if it wasn't for the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper hurriedly holding on, he would have fallen to the ground with his head, and the back of his head hit the footstool.

"Presumptuous, what thing that doesn't have long eyes actually dares to collide with Boss Sun?!" The shopkeeper scolded loudly, attracting the attention of the people around him.

Someone recognized the identity of the drunk man, "He is the son of Wailang, a member of the left division of Shangshu Province, who has recently been abandoned by his beloved woman and is drunk every day." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Boss Sun's face, and pointed to the son-in-law of the Lang family who was held up by the shopkeeper, "Call me!" ”
