The roosters in the city gradually sounded, and in the sky, there was a faint sign of a light coming out.

In the back kitchen of the palace of the king of Yu, Li Xiao finally stopped what he was doing, stood aside, and stared at the porcelain bowl in front of him.

"Li Gongzi, what are you doing?" Gao Changyu looked puzzled, and when he saw Li Xiao stop, he couldn't help asking.

For nearly half an hour just now, Li Xiao was tinkering with the firewood leaves in the sack, not only using gauze, but also wasting the hot water she had just boiled.

Li Xiao smiled and did not answer directly. After working so hard, he wasn't sure if he could succeed directly. Although in his previous life, he would make a bowl of cool and delicious Guanyin chai tofu at home from time to time, that is, this fairy tofu, accompanied by sugar or brown sugar, it is really refreshing to say on a hot summer day.

Sixteen years have passed, and he still remembers the production steps, but he is not completely sure, after all, the equipment here is not as advanced as in the previous life, and there is less toothpaste.

"By the way, His Royal Highness the County Lord, do you have any sugar here?" He thought for a moment and asked. Fairy tofu is perfect with white sugar.

"Yes." Although Gao Changyu didn't know why Li Xiao needed white sugar, he still answered. In today's Haoguo, white sugar is not precious, and a large jar can be bought for one or two silvers.

took a gray jar from the side and put it in front of Li Xiao.

"By the way, a few days ago, that Wanda came to me to ask about your whereabouts." Gao Changyu suddenly thought of Wanda's matter, so he said it casually. Of course, she didn't tell Wanda about Li Xiao, although he felt that there was an inexplicable relationship between Wanda and Li Xiao, but a few days ago, not long after the Wencheng Street incident, she didn't want to make other trouble for Li Xiao.

"Wanda?" Li Xiao sniffed the sugar, raised his head and looked surprised, "What is he looking for me for, revenge?" ”

That day in the alley, he taught Wan Guifei's nephew Wanda, why, now he is looking for his whereabouts, is he ashamed of it.

Speaking of a few days ago, he was still in a coma, and his consciousness was in an endless darkness, and in the darkness, there was only a black shadow accompanying him. What the dark shadow is, he knows. Of course, he also knew that if there was no dark shadow, he would not be able to hold on, and the fear of killing for the first time was still fresh in his memory until now.

"I have to thank myself for the evil thoughts in my heart." He shook his head and smiled.

"What?" Gao Changyu didn't hear what Li Xiao said just now, and asked.

"It's nothing, then Wanda, don't bother." Li Xiao shook his head again. Wanda and Wan Guifei are relatives, and Wan Guifei is related to the assassin of Suzhou Chu Mansion two months ago, this matter is always very strange and inexplicably connected.

However, Wanda really doesn't need to put too much thought into it, this person is just a child of a gentlemanly family, since he provoked him, he is not afraid of the consequences.

Since Li Xiao said so, Gao Changyu didn't have anything to say, she had been worried about Li Xiao since that day, for fear that Wanda would retaliate, so when Wanda came to ask about the former, she couldn't help but worry, and even planned to suffer a flesh and skin pain herself, so that Wanda would not go to Li Xiao's trouble, but looking at the situation that day, Wanda seemed to be only disappointed, not angry, and when she learned the news of Li Xiao like this, she turned around and left without continuing to ask.

This made her even more sure of a fact. Li Xiao may have that kind of relationship with Wanda. No wonder although Wanda is rampant and domineering, there has been no rumor of robbing people's daughters, and no one has ever reported that Wanda and the son of which family robbed the oiran, it turned out to be because of this reason.

couldn't help but look at Li Xiao's eyes, and became weird again, and her body couldn't help but shiver.

Li Xiao didn't know what Gao Changyu was thinking at this time, and he was not interested in knowing, at this time his attention was all on the porcelain bowl in front of him.

Time passed little by little, and the Jingshi City was cool at night, and the porcelain bowl that was originally steaming was already cold at this time. The green liquid in the bowl also solidified at the moment, and at a cursory glance, it really looked like tofu.

He took the knife from the side, and swiped it a few times, and the "tofu" that had been condensed into a piece was divided equally. Then he took a small bowl, put a few pieces in it, scooped a spoonful with a spoon, sprinkled it evenly on it, and then handed it to Gao Changyu, and said with a smile: "Come, taste." ”

Gao Changyu, who took the porcelain bowl, glanced at the green-gray "tofu" in the bowl, looked up at Li Xiao, and didn't know whether to start.

"Can you eat this thing?" That's what she was thinking at the moment.

The greenish-gray "tofu", with a few bits of firewood floating on it, is quite elastic, but it doesn't look clean, especially after watching Li Xiao's production process, I dare not say anything.

Looking at Gao Changyu, who was hesitant, Li Xiao sighed, indeed, it is difficult for people to accept a new thing immediately. Whoever makes her eat a mixture of leaf juice and wood ash will do the same.

"Your Highness, Master Li, what are you doing here?" Qiu Xiang rubbed her eyes, walked from the moon gate, and asked in a hoarse voice to the two people in the kitchen.

She was woken up by the crowing of chickens in the city, and when she saw movement in the back kitchen, she came to take a look. Unexpectedly, I found that Gao Changyu was here so early, and Li Xiao on the side was no longer resting in the room at this time, and he would be in such a pickled place. She didn't think about Li Xiao and the little girl Chu Chu in that direction, after all, last time, Gao Changyu said Li Xiao's hobbies, so when Gao Changyu gave the room to the two of them this time, she was only slightly surprised.

Otherwise, Gao Changyu will also have concerns about whether the two of them will do anything in his boudoir.

Seeing Qiu Xiang coming, Gao Changyu breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, handed the warm fairy tofu in his hand to the former, and said with a smile: "Come, taste it." ”

"What is this?" Although Qiu Xiang had just woken up, she could still see clearly what she was doing, greenish-gray, eating that she had never seen before.

"If you eat it, can I still hurt you?" As he spoke, Gao Changyu's voice became lower and lower.

"yes, let's eat." Li Xiao squinted and agreed.

Looking at the two people singing and harmonizing in front of him, Qiu Xiang took a wooden spoon and scooped a little, put it in his mouth, chewed it gently, and suddenly frowned.

"What's the matter, but...... Not tasty? Gao Changyu looked at Qiu Xiang, who was frowning, and asked.

Li Xiao couldn't help frowning, is it not delicious to make it yourself?

I saw Qiu Xiang swallowing it in one gulp and savoring it.

Melts in your mouth, sweet and delicious. This is her first feeling, a small bite of "tofu" in the mouth, there is a fragrance. It is silky and smooth, and it is free in the mouth, making people reluctant to bite it. Coupled with the sweetness of the sugar at the end, it is really irresistible, and the taste is weird and sweet, which she has never tasted.

Under the puzzled eyes of Li Xiao and Gao Changyu, Qiu Xiang ate all the remaining "tofu" in the bowl, and then hiccuped with satisfaction. He asked, "Your Highness, what kind of food is this, and why is it so delicious?" ”

"This thing is called fairy tofu, and it is a specialty of my hometown." Li Xiao put another bowl on it, handed it to Gao Changyu, and said with a smile: "How about it, His Royal Highness the County Lord can taste it this time?" ”

Hearing Qiu Xiang's words, he couldn't help but smile, he didn't expect that after so many years, he would make it again and succeed.

"A specialty of Suzhou? But why haven't I heard of it? Gao Changyu took the porcelain bowl and asked.

As the most prosperous city in this continent, all kinds of peculiar food and local specialties will naturally appear in Beijing, Li Xiao eats food and says that it is a specialty of Suzhou, but she has not heard of it.

Li Xiao smiled, didn't speak, took a bowl for himself, and also filled a bowl for Qiu Xiang, who was looking at him.

Gao Changyu puffed out his mouth, took a bite, and as soon as he entered his mouth, there was a fragrance, followed by the sweetness of sugar. Savoring it, it is like lying in the cold stream, letting the mountain spring flow on your body, this cool and delicious feeling, people's brain can't help but be clear.

Looking at the second daughter who was enjoying herself, Li Xiao couldn't help but smile. Compared with the previous life, today's Guanyin firewood leaves are more pure and natural, without the baptism of the dirty environment, the fairy tofu made is more sweet, and the white sugar made of pure natural sugarcane is really delicious, no wonder the second daughter has such an expression.

In just a moment, the three of them finished eating, and after savoring it, Gao Changyu glanced at the empty porcelain bowl on the side, with some regret, turned his head to look at Qiu Xiang and asked, "What about Sister Chunlan?" ”

I ate too much and didn't leave a little for the maids brought by Chunlan and Li Xiao, so I was really embarrassed.

"I saw that Sister Chunlan was still sleeping, so I didn't disturb her." Hearing Chunlan's name, Qiu Xiang also felt guilty, but she ate two bowls.

Li Xiao looked at the second daughter, did not speak, looked down at the porcelain bowl in his hand, and fell into deep thought.

Looking at the current situation, I don't know when I will be able to return to Suzhou, although there are still hundreds of emperors' rewards on my body, but if I look for the current speed of spending money, I will lose it sooner or later. You can't reach out to Chu Xin'er to ask for it, a journey of thousands of miles, maybe there is something wrong in the middle, besides, it's not convenient, it will take more than ten days to go back and forth, and when the money arrives, I'm afraid he will already be penniless.

There is Wan'an Temple, he will not starve to death, but in the days of Jingshi, there is no need to spend money, just last night, a light night, it is three hundred taels, and there will be no less places to use silver in the future.

He had never worried about the silver at home, but now he has to worry about the silver.

"Alas......" sighed, if it was possible, he still wanted to lie on the bed and count the money. It's the dream of a lifetime.

By the way, why not use this fairy tofu to make money? Looking at the empty bowl in his hand, he secretly said in his heart.

Now that summer has arrived, the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, and it would be a good thing to be able to eat a bowl of cool and pleasant fairy tofu in this weather. And this thing is not difficult to make, and there must be a cellar in the palace that is like winter all year round, as for the cost, this kind of thing that is used as firewood will not be expensive.

As for who will do it, isn't there a ready-made person in front of him?

"Your Royal Highness, I have a business I want to talk to you about."
